A Study of Aerodynamical Effects on the Distance between Track Center of High Speed Train(I)

When constructing a high-speed railroad, the reduction of the distance between track centers and the width of track bed may bring about the effect of cost savings. When, however, considering the influence that the increase of wind pressure due to the change of the distance between track centers may have on the stability of train operation, extensive technical review and overall studies need to be performed before the distance between track centers is determined. Therefore, in this study, the impact that the increase in wind pressure due to the change of aerodynamic phenomena with the change of the distance between track centers may have on two trains passing by each other was predicted, and the stability of train operation was analyzed in order to review the distance between track centers suitable to Honam HSR trains. In this study, we estimated the aerodynamical effects by the results of the real train experiments.
