The length of the bottleneck after the exit and the distance of the exit to the lateral wall of a squared room are investigated. Both models show that an increase in the bottleneck length increases the evacuation time by more than 20%, for any exit position. Hence, a bottleneck length tending to zero is the best choice. On the contrary, the results of moving the exit closer to the lateral wall are different in both models and, thus, its convenience cannot be stated. To unveil whether this layout modi cation is favorable, experimental data are required. Moreover, the discrepancy between models indicates that they should be validated considering several scenarios."enhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/SIMULACIONPEATONESDINAMICA DE FLUIDOSInfluence of bottleneck lengths and position on simulated pedestrian egressArtículos de Publicaciones Periódicas
