Railway applications - Aerodynamics - Part 6: Requirements and test procedures for cross wind assessment

This document gives guidelines for the cross wind assessment of railways.
This document is applicable to all passenger vehicles, locomotives and power cars (with a maximum train speed above 140 km/h up to 360 km/h) and freight wagons (with a maximum train speed above 80 km/h up to 160 km/h) and track gauges from 1 435 mm to 1 668 mm inclusive. For passenger vehicles, locomotives and power cars with a maximum train speed between 250 km/h and 360 km/h, a requirement to demonstrate the cross wind stability is imposed. This document is not applicable to light rail and urban rail vehicles.

Železniške naprave - Aerodinamika - 6. del: Zahteve in preskusni postopki za oceno vpliva bočnega vetra

Ta dokument podaja smernice za načrtovanje vpliva bočnega vetra na železnice.
Ta dokument se uporablja za vsa potniška vozila, lokomotive in pogonske vagone (z največjo hitrostjo vlaka od 140 km/h do 360 km/h) in tovorne vagone (z največjo hitrostjo vlaka od 80 km/h do 160 km/h) ter za tirne širine od 1435 mm do vključno s 1668 mm. Za potniška vozila, lokomotive in pogonske vagone z največjo hitrostjo med 250 km/h in 360 km/h je določena zahteva, da se dokaže stabilnost pri bočnem vetru. Ta standard se ne uporablja za lahka železniška vozila in mestna železniška vozila.

Introduction
Trains running on open track are exposed to cross winds. The cross wind safety of railway operations
depends on vehicle and infrastructure characteristics and operational conditions. Important
parameters are:
— aerodynamic characteristics of the vehicle;
— vehicle dynamics (e.g. mass, suspension, bump stops);
— track gauge;
— line characteristics (radius and cant of the track, height of embankments and bridges, walls near the
track);
— wind exposure of the line;
— operating speed, mode of operation (non-tilting, tilting, running direction).

1 Scope
This document gives guidelines for the cross wind assessment of railways.
This document is applicable to all passenger vehicles, locomotives and power cars (with a maximum
train speed above 140 km/h up to 360 km/h) and freight wagons (with a maximum train speed above
80 km/h up to 160 km/h) and track gauges from 1 435 mm to 1 668 mm inclusive. For passenger
vehicles, locomotives and power cars with a maximum train speed between 250 km/h and 360 km/h, a
requirement to demonstrate the cross wind stability is imposed. This document is not applicable to
light rail and urban rail vehicles.
