Suggestion of Prediction Equation for Environmental Noise of Saemaeul Trains

새마을 열차 환경소음 예측식 제안

For the reduction and efficient management of railway noise, first of all prediction of railway noise is necessarily requisited. Many studies for prediction of railway nearby noise have been accomplished. But it is impossible to predict easily and exactly for the Korean Railway, because the acoustic powers for each rolling stock operated in Korea have not been built yet. So in this study, prediction model equation for environmental noise for Korean rolling stock Saemaeul was suggested using SEL of engine and roiling noise component separately. Finally for the validation of prediction equation, the predicted result was compared to the measured.
