Železniške naprave - Aerodinamika - 4. del: Zahteve in ugotavljanje skladnosti za aerodinamiko na odprti progi

Ta dokument določa zahteve, preskusne postopke, metode ocenjevanja in merila sprejemljivosti za obratovanje tirnih vozil na odprti progi. V tem dokumentu so podane zahteve v zvezi z nihanjem tlaka in učinkom zračnega toka ob progi ter metode ocenjevanja le-tega. Obravnavane so metode ocenjevanja tekalnega upora ter primeri obremenitev na infrastrukturnih komponentah zaradi sprememb tlaka, ki jih povzroči vlak, in učinkov zračnega toka. Za proge z drobirjem je predlagana priprava preskusa za ocenjevanje letečega drobirja, ki ga sproža vlak.
Zahteve veljajo samo za tirna vozila težkega železniškega sistema z največjo hitrostjo vlaka več kot 160 km/h in ne za druge železniške sisteme. Dokument se uporablja za vsa tirna vozila in infrastrukturo na prostem z nazivno tirno širino od 1435 mm do vključno 1668 mm.

Introduction
Trains running on open track generate aerodynamic loads on objects and persons they pass. If trains are
being passed by other trains, trains are also subject to aerodynamic loading themselves. The aerodynamic
loading caused by a train passing an object or a person near the track, or when two trains pass each other,
is an important interface parameter between the subsystems of rolling stock, infrastructure and
operation. It is thus subject to regulation when specifying the trans-European railway system.
Trains running on open track must overcome a running resistance which has a strong effect on the
required engine power, achievable speed, travel time and energy consumption. Thus, running resistance
is often subject to contractual agreements and requires standardized test and assessment methods. The
test set-up for ballast projection was also updated.
1 Scope
This document establishes requirements, test procedures, assessment methods and acceptance criteria
for operating rolling stock in open track. For pressure variations and slipstream effects beside the track,
requirements and assessment methods are provided. For running resistance, assessment methods are
addressed in this document. Load cases on infrastructure components due to train-induced pressure
variations and slipstream effects are addressed in this document. For ballasted track test set-ups for
ballast projection assessment are proposed.
The requirements only apply to rolling stock of the heavy rail system with maximum train speeds above
160 km/h and not to other rail systems. The document is applicable to all rolling stock and infrastructure
in open air with nominal track gauges of 1 435 mm to 1 668 mm inclusive.
