EN 14531-2:2015 (E) 5 Introduction This European Standard describes a common calculation method for railway applications. It describes the general algorithms utilizing step by step calculation for use in the design and validation of brake equipment and braking performance for all types of train sets and single vehicles. In addition, the algorithms provide a means of comparing the results of other braking performance calculation methods. The EN 14531 series was originally planned to have six parts covering the calculation methodology to be used when conducting calculations relating to the braking performance of various types of railway vehicles under the heading ‘EN 14531, Railway applications – Methods for calculation of stopping, slowing distances and immobilization braking’. The six parts were as follows:
« Part 1: General algorithms
« Part 2: Application to single freight wagon
« Part 3: Application to mass transit (LRVs and D- and E- MUs)
« Part 4: Application to single passengers coach
« Part 5: Application to locomotive
« Part 6: Application to high speed trains EN 14531-1 was originally published in 2005 followed by EN 14531-6 which was published in 2009. Following the publication of these parts, it was decided that a common methodology could be used for parts 2 to 5 and this should be contained under a revised version of Part 1 and Part 6 with a title of ‘Railway applications — Methods for calculation of stopping and slowing distances and immobilisation braking — Part 2: Step by step calculations for train sets or single vehicles‘ . EN 14531-1:2005 and EN 14531-6:2009 are referenced in the current TSIs (Freight wagons and Locomotive and passenger RST). The tables of the Annex ZA give the equivalence of the TSI referenced clauses of the original EN 14531 series to the clauses of this issue of EN 14531-1 and EN 14531-2. SIST EN 14531-2:2016



EN 14531-2:2015 (E) 6 1 Scope This European Standard describes the step-by-step method for the calculation of brake performance utilizing time step integration which may be used for all types of train sets, units or single vehicles, including high-speed, locomotive and passenger coaches, conventional vehicles and wagons. This European Standard does not specify the performance requirements. It enables the calculation of the various aspects of the performance: stopping or slowing distances, adhesion requirements, force calculations, etc. This European Standard enables the verification by calculation of the stopping and slowing performance for high-speed and conventional trains operating on high-speed and conventional infrastructure. It may also be used for the detailed investigation of stopping or slowing performance at any design/verification stage. The proposed method of this standard is based on a numerical time integration algorithm. The standard explains a simple numerical integration scheme in order to provide a useful straightforward example of the proposed method. Other numerical time integration algorithms exist, especially more accurate ones, but they are not in the scope of this standard. When such methods are used the order of accuracy that they achieve has to be in accordance with this European Standard. This European Standard also includes examples of distance and other dynamic calculations, see Annex B. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

The content of each algorithm, the corresponding definitions of input values and different phases of calculation are given in Clause 5. 5 Stopping and slowing distances calculation 5.1 Accuracy of input values The accuracy of the calculation described here depends directly on the accuracy of the input data. The accuracy of the input data values shall be relevant to the purpose of the calculation and shall be traceable as to how these values were established e.g. engineer´s estimation, test results, manufacturer’s data. Supporting calculations or test reports (or extracts of these documents) should be attached with the performance calculation where applicable. Representative curves of the performance of a type of brake equipment e.g. electrodynamic brake, can be determined by numerical or practical methods. The values can be given as a table.

EN 14531-2:2015 (E) 9 5.2 General characteristics 5.2.1 General Descriptions of general characteristics e.g. train formation, train mass, static and equivalent rotating mass, dynamic mass and wheel diameter are given in EN 14531-1 if not otherwise specified below. 5.2.2 Train resistance The train resistance is a component of the train retarding force provided by the structure of the train referred as resistance to motion in EN 14067-4; this uses instantaneous values in the formula: 2RavCvBAF⋅+⋅+= (1) where: FRa is the instantaneous value of the train resistance, in N v is the instantaneous speed of the vehicle, in m/s A is the characteristic coefficient of the train independent of speed considered as C1 in EN 14067-4, in N B is the characteristic coefficient of the train proportional to the speed considered as C2 in EN 14067-4, in N(m/s) C is the characteristic coefficient of aerodynamic train resistance considered as C3 in EN 14067-4, in 2N(m/s) NOTE
For a first calculation, the mean train resistance to motion as detailed in EN 14531-1 may be used. 5.3 Brake equipment type characteristics 5.3.1 General The final result of this part is the braking force generated by each brake equipment type as related to the rail. See EN 14531-1 for basic descriptions of brake equipment type and entity. 5.3.2 Characteristics of friction brake equipment types See EN 14531-1 for basic descriptions of tread and disc brake equipment types and the dynamic and static coefficients of friction of the brake block and pad, together with the calculation of tread brake and disc brake forces. SIST EN 14531-2:2016



EN 14531-2:2015 (E) 10 5.3.3 Characteristics of the other brake equipment types See EN 14531-1 for basic descriptions of electrodynamic, fluid retarder, magnetic track brake and eddy current brake equipment types together with the calculation of the respective brake forces. 5.3.4 Time characteristics of each brake equipment type 5.3.4.1 Derivation of characteristics In the step-by-step calculation, an instantaneous characteristic can be expressed by multiplication of the nominal braking force with a dimensionless factor as set out in 5.7. For example, the braking response of a brake equipment type can be considered with such dimensionless factors as a characteristic depending on time. 5.3.4.2 Creation of input data The time characteristics, calculated as set out in 5.3.4.1 can be used directly or converted to a practical approximation, e.g. a linear description (see Annex B). 5.3.5 Blending concept The description of a typical blending concept is described in EN 14531-1. 5.4 Initial and operating characteristics 5.4.1 Mean gradient of the track In general, brake performance calculations are based on the assumption of a straight and level track; EN 14531-1 states the considerations and formulae when considering braking on a gradient. 5.4.2 Initial speed For design, the calculations should as a minimum be performed from the maximum design speed. 5.4.3 Available coefficient of adhesion If the required adhesion exceeds the available adhesion, it can lead to an increase of the stopping distance compared to a theoretical calculation as a consequence of a sliding wheelset or regulation by the wheel slide protection device. The required adhesion of each axle, calculated as set out in 5.11.2 shall be lower than the assumed or specified available adhesion. This available coefficient of adhesion is dependent on the conditions prevalent at the time of braking e. g. sanding, speed, environmental conditions, number of axles, etc. 5.4.4 Level of the brake demand Generally, the emergency brake demand is considered during step-by-step calculations (unless otherwise specified). Other brake demand levels e.g. full service braking may be considered when establishing the design of each functioning brake equipment type. 5.4.5 Quantity of each brake equipment type available Calculations shall be performed with all the brake equipment types in working order and with a specified quantity and, or location of isolated brakes. SIST EN 14531-2:2016



EN 14531-2:2015 (E) 11 5.4.6 Calculation in degraded conditions Generally, brake calculations are performed with nominal parameters of the brake equipment in use. It is recommended that degraded mode conditions which may affect the performance of the brakes are considered, e.g. friction coefficient variation, available coefficient of adhesion variation, or isolation of equipment. NOTE
Such conditions may be stated in the relevant standards and operator specifications. 5.5 Sharing, proportioning of the brake forces – achieved forces EN 14531-1 describes a typical example of the sharing and/ or proportioning of brake forces. 5.6 Total retarding force at train level EN 14531-1 describes the total retarding force at train level. 5.7 Time step calculation 5.7.1 General The following calculations utilize integration as set out in 5.7.2. This is a simple mathematical method which is sufficient for most applications. Other more detailed algorithms may be used if considered necessary. The initial step begins at time t0 = 0 s simultaneous with the braking demand. The time step ût selected for the calculation shall be determined using the distance deviation ratio ûs of the calculation, (i. e. this ratio obtained from the distance calculations with time steps ût and (2 x ût) shall not be greater than the minimum precision required for the application being considered). The value of distance deviation ratio shall be a maximum of 0,001 in order to achieve an acceptable result when used for high speeds. When used for lower speeds or slowing calculations then other values of deviation ratio may be used. The value of the distance deviation ratio is given by the following formula. )()()2(tftftfssss∆

FprEN 14531-2:2015 (E) 4 Foreword This document (FprEN 14531-2:2015) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 256 “Railway applications”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN. This document is currently submitted to the Formal Vote. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive 2008/57/EC. For relationship with EU Directive 2008/57/EC, see informative Annex ZA which is an integral part of this document. This series of European standards EN 14531, Railway applications — Methods for calculation of stopping and slowing distances and immobilization braking consists of: — Part 1: General algorithms utilizing mean value calculation for train sets or single vehicles; — Part 2: Step-by-step calculations for train sets or single vehicles. The two parts are interrelated and should be considered together when conducting the step-by-step calculation of stopping and slowing distances. kSIST FprEN 14531-2:2015



FprEN 14531-2:2015 (E) 5 Introduction This European Standard describes a common calculation method for railway applications. It describes the general algorithms utilizing step by step calculation for use in the design and validation of brake equipment and braking performance for all types of train sets and single vehicles. In addition, the algorithms provide a means of comparing the results of other braking performance calculation methods. The EN 14531 series was originally planned to have six parts covering the calculation methodology to be used when conducting calculations relating to the braking performance of various types of railway vehicles under the heading ‘EN 14531, Railway applications – Methods for calculation of stopping, slowing distances and immobilization braking’. The six parts were as follows: − Part 1: General algorithms − Part 2: Application to single freight wagon − Part 3: Application to mass transit (LRVs and D- and E- MUs) − Part 4: Application to single passengers coach − Part 5: Application to locomotive − Part 6: Application to high speed trains EN 14531-1 was originally published in 2005 followed by EN 14531-6 which was published in 2009. Following the publication of these parts, it was decided that a common methodology could be used for parts 2 to 5 and this should be contained under a revised version of Part 1 and Part 6 with a title of ‘Railway applications — Methods for calculation of stopping and slowing distances and immobilisation braking — Part 2: Step by step calculations for train sets or single vehicles‘ . EN 14531-1:2005 and EN 14531-6:2009 are referenced in the current TSIs (Freight wagons and Locomotive and passenger RST). The tables of the Annex ZA give the equivalence of the TSI referenced clauses of the original EN 14531 series to the clauses of this issue of FprEN 14531-1 and FprEN 14531-2. kSIST FprEN 14531-2:2015



FprEN 14531-2:2015 (E) 6 1 Scope This European Standard describes the step-by-step method for the calculation of brake performance utilizing time step integration which may be used for all types of train sets, units or single vehicles, including high-speed, locomotive and passenger coaches, conventional vehicles and wagons. This European Standard does not specify the performance requirements. It enables the calculation of the various aspects of the performance: stopping or slowing distances, adhesion requirements, force calculations, etc. This European Standard enables the verification by calculation of the stopping and slowing performance for high-speed and conventional trains operating on high-speed and conventional infrastructure. It may also be used for the detailed investigation of stopping or slowing performance at any design/verification stage. The proposed method of this standard is based on a numerical time integration algorithm. The standard explains a simple numerical integration scheme in order to provide a useful straightforward example of the proposed method. Other numerical time integration algorithms exist, especially more accurate ones, but they are not in the scope of this Standard. NOTE
When such methods are used the order of accuracy that they achieve has to be in accordance with this European Standard. This European Standard also includes examples of distance and other dynamic calculations, see Annex B. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

See FprEN 14531-1 for basic descriptions of brake equipment type and entity. 5.3.2 Characteristics of friction brake equipment types See FprEN 14531-1 for basic descriptions of tread and disc brake equipment types and the dynamic and static coefficients of friction of the brake block and pad, together with the calculation of tread brake and disc brake forces. kSIST FprEN 14531-2:2015

For example, the braking response of a brake equipment type can be considered with such dimensionless factors as a characteristic depending on time. 5.3.4.2 Creation of input data The time characteristics, calculated as set out in 5.3.4.1 can be used directly or converted to a practical approximation, e.g. a linear description (see Annex B). 5.3.5 Blending concept The description of a typical blending concept is described in EN 14531-1. 5.4 Initial and operating characteristics 5.4.1 Mean gradient of the track In general, brake performance calculations are based on the assumption of a straight and level track; FprEN 14531-1 states the considerations and formulae when considering braking on a gradient. 5.4.2 Initial speed For design, the calculations should as a minimum be performed from the maximum design speed. 5.4.3 Available coefficient of adhesion If the required adhesion exceeds the available adhesion, it can lead to an increase of the stopping distance compared to a theoretical calculation as a consequence of a sliding wheelset or regulation by the wheel slide protection device. The required adhesion of each axle, calculated as set out in 5.11.2 shall be lower than the assumed or specified available adhesion. This available coefficient of adhesion is dependent on the conditions prevalent at the time of braking e. g. sanding, speed, environmental conditions, number of axles, etc. 5.4.4 Level of the brake demand Generally, the emergency brake demand is considered during step-by-step calculations (unless otherwise specified). Other brake demand levels e.g. full service braking may be considered when establishing the design of each functioning brake equipment type. 5.4.5 Quantity of each brake equipment type available Calculations shall be performed with all the brake equipment types in working order and with a specified quantity and, or location of isolated brakes. kSIST FprEN 14531-2:2015



FprEN 14531-2:2015 (E) 11 5.4.6 Calculation in degraded conditions Generally, brake calculations are performed with nominal parameters of the brake equipment in use. It is recommended that degraded mode conditions which may affect the performance of the brakes are considered, e.g. friction coefficient variation, available coefficient of adhesion variation, or isolation of equipment. NOTE
Such conditions may be stated in the relevant standards and operator specifications. 5.5 Sharing, proportioning of the brake forces – achieved forces FprEN 14531-1 describes a typical example of the sharing and/ or proportioning of brake forces. 5.6 Total retarding force at train level FprEN 14531-1 describes the total retarding force at train level. 5.7 Time step calculation 5.7.1 General The following calculations utilize integration as set out in 5.7.2. This is a simple mathematical method which is sufficient for most applications. Other more detailed algorithms may be used if considered necessary. The initial step begins at time t0 = 0 s simultaneous with the braking demand. The time step ût selected for the calculation shall be determined using the distance deviation ratio ûs of the calculation, (i. e. this ratio obtained from the distance calculations with time steps ût and (2 x ût) shall not be greater than the minimum precision required for the application being considered). The value of distance deviation ratio shall be a maximum of 0,001 in order to achieve an acceptable result when used for high speed trains. However, when used for lower speeds or slowing calculations then other values of deviation ratio may be used. The value of the distance deviation ratio is given by the following formula. )()()2(tftftfssss∆∆∆⋅−=∆
