Railway applications — Calculation of braking performance (stopping, slowing and stationary braking) — Part 2: General algorithms utilizing step by step calculation
This document specifies the methodologies for calculation of braking performance for railway rolling stock. This document describes the general algorithms/formulae using instantaneous value inputs to perform calculations of brake equipment and braking performance, in terms of stopping/slowing distances, braking power and energy for all types of rolling stock, either as vehicles or units. The calculations can be performed at any stage of the assessment process (design, manufacture, testing, verification, investigation, etc.) of railway rolling stock. This document does not set out specific acceptance criteria (pass/fail). This document is not intended to be used as a design guide for the selection of brake systems and does not specify performance requirements. This document does not provide a method to calculate the extension of stopping distances when the level of demanded adhesion exceeds the available adhesion (wheel slide activity). This document contains examples of the calculation of brake forces for different brake equipment types and examples of the calculation of stopping distance for vehicles or units.
Applications ferroviaires — Calcul des performances de freinage (freinage d'arrêt, de ralentissement et d'immobilisation) — Partie 2: Algorithmes généraux utilisant le calcul pas à pas
Le présent document décrit les méthodologies de calcul des performances de freinage du matériel roulant ferroviaire. Le présent document décrit les algorithmes et formules généraux qui utilisent des valeurs instantanées comme valeurs d'entrée pour effectuer les calculs de dimensionnement des équipements de frein et les performances de freinage, en termes de distances d'arrêt et de ralentissement, de puissance et d'énergie de freinage pour tous les types de matériels roulants, qu'il s'agisse de véhicules ou de rames. Les calculs peuvent être effectués à n'importe quelle étape du processus d'évaluation (conception, fabrication, essais, vérification, investigation, etc.) du matériel roulant ferroviaire. Le présent document ne spécifie pas les critères d'acceptation spécifiques (réussite/échec). Le présent document n'est pas destiné à servir de guide de conception pour le choix des systèmes de freinage et ne spécifie pas les exigences de performances. Le présent document ne spécifie pas de méthode pour calculer l'allongement des distances d'arrêt en cas de dégradation du niveau d'adhérence disponible (phénomène d'enrayage). Le présent document donne des exemples de calcul des efforts de freinage pour les différents types d'équipements de frein, ainsi que des exemples de la distance d'arrêt propre à un véhicule isolé ou à une composition de train.

Introduction
The objective of this document is to enable the railway industry and operators to work with common
calculation methods.
The methodology of step by step calculation is based on numerical time integration.
The step by step calculation method cannot be used for stationary braking. This document considers an
example for stationary braking of a multiple unit according to ISO 20138-1.
When calculating stopping and slowing distances using the step by step calculation method, it is intended that
both ISO 20138-1 and this document be considered.

General algorithms utilizing step by step calculation
1 Scope
This document specifies the methodologies for the calculation of braking performance for railway rolling
stock.
This document describes the step by step calculation methods for railway applications. In addition, the
algorithms provide a means of comparing the results of other braking performance calculation methods.
This document describes the general algorithms and formulae using instantaneous value inputs to perform
the calculations of brake equipment and braking performance, in terms of stopping and slowing distances, and
braking power and energy for all types of rolling stock, either as vehicles or units. The calculations can be
performed at any stage of the assessment process (design, manufacture, testing, verification, investigation,
etc.) of railway rolling stock.
This document does not set out specific acceptance criteria (pass or fail).
This document is not intended to be used as a design guide for the selection of brake subsystems and does not
specify performance requirements. This document does not provide a method to calculate the extension of
stopping distances when the level of demanded wheel/rail adhesion exceeds the available wheel/rail adhesion
(wheel slide activity).
This document contains examples of the calculation of braking forces for different brake subsystems and
examples of the calculation of stopping distance for vehicles or units.
