Part 2 : Panel Method Applied to Problems of European High-speed Train Interoperability

  • Conference paper

Summary

As part of the European TRANSAERO project, and through the work of WP3 in particular, a methodology was defined for analysis of unsteady flow generating by trains passing. The Panel Method was then applied to the problems of interoperability liable to occur when different types of high-speed train pass each other (TGV-R, ICE 1, ETR 500).

This paper presents the results of a study based on the panel method to evaluate the aerodynamic loads exerted on different train components during passing.
