When a front head of train enters a tunnel at a high speed, compression wave is generated at tunnel entrance due to the confinement effect and propagated along the tunnel with sound of speed. The propagated compression wave is reflected at tunnel exit due to abrupt pressure change at passage. The reflected wave is expansion pressure wave. And when the rear head of train goes through the tunnel entrance, another expansion pressure wave is generated and propagated along the tunnel. The pressure drop occurs seriously around train when the two expansion pressure waves come cross on train in the tunnel. In order to reduce the pressure drop, the compression wave front must be controlled because the intensity and magnitude of pressure drop is nearly proportional to that of compression wave at tunnel entrance. This study relates to reduction of the pressure wave gradient with respect to tunnel entrance shape change with various kind of angle and rounding. The results show characteristics of wave propagation in tunnel, usefulness of characteristic curve to estimate proper time domain size in numerical study and measuring time in actual experiment. Also rounding is contributed to improve pressure wave front even if its radius is very small at tunnel entrance. In order to improve of pressure wave front at tunnel entrance, proper angle is prefered to rounding with big radius and an angle of around 14$^{\circ}$ is recommended according to this simulations, And it is expected to reduce additional pressure drop in tunnel when the location and the size of the internal space for attendant equipment are considered in advance.

The Korean Tilting Train eXpress may produced a strong micro-pressure wave in tunnel exit because of large train/tunnel area ration of conventional railways. This micro-pressure wave causes an impulsive noise which is a serious environmental noise pollution near tunnel exit. Tunnel hood can be the method of reducing the micro-pressure wave in tunnel exit. Therefore, parametric studies for tunnel hood are performed with respect to the hood length and size to investigate the effects of the tunnel hood. Also, axi-symmetric unsteady compressible flow solver was used to analyze train-tunnel relative motion. According to the result of numerical analysis, the maximum micro-pressure wave in tunnel exit is reduced by 56% throughout the hood establishment on conventional railways.

Complex breakup behavior in the revival wave has been observed in the Belousov-Zhabotinsky(BZ) reaction system containing 1,4-cyclohexanedione (1,4-CHD) in the dish divided into two compartments with a sliding window. A same reaction mixture is poured into the two compartments individually with time difference. Wave propagation exhibited different behavior in the revival wave of the reaction system. This was largely dependent on the progress time prior to the pouring into each compartment and on the gap between the times of pouring into the two compartments. The revival wave in the reaction system is induced spontaneously as a new wave train with a long time lag after the disappearance of the initially induced wave. A thoroughgoing study of the chaotic breakup of propagating chemical wave train was to be possible since the revival wave has a longer wavelength, clearer wave-train patterns, and longer duration period.

충격파관에서 발생하는 충격파는 저압관단으로 전파하며, 관단에서 반사한다. 반사 충격파와 경계층의 간섭으로 반사 충격파에 분지가 발생하게 되고, 분지한 반사 충격파는 접촉면과 간섭하며, shock train이 발생하게 된다. 그러나 충격파관에서 발생하는 shock train 현상에 대한 연구는 미흡한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 2차원 축대칭 충격파관을 사용하여 비정상, 압축성 Navier-Stokes 방정식을 적용한 수치해석을 수행하였으며, shock train의 상세한 특성을 조사하기 위하여, 고정된 압력비에서 충격파관의 길이 및 직경을 변화시켰다.

충격파와 경계층의 간섭 현상은 경계층이 박리하고, shock train이 발생하며, 유동장은 매우 복잡한 형태로 된다. 이러한 현상은 반사 충격파와 비정상 경계층이 간섭하는 충격파관에서도 발생한다. 그러나 충격파관에서 발생하는 shock train 현상에 대한 연구는 미비한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 2차원 축대칭 충격파관을 사용하여 수치해석을 수행하였으며, 충격파관에서 발생하는 shock train의 유동 특성을 상세히 조사하기 위하여 압축성 Navier-Stokes 방정식을 적용하였다. 본 연구의 수치해석 결과를 바탕으로 상세한 파동선도를 통해 실험 결과와 비교하였다.

When a high-speed train enters a tunnel, a compression wave is generated. This wave subsequently emerges from the exit portal of the tunnel, which causes an impulsive noise called 'Sonic boom' or 'micro-pressure wave'. In the present study, new method is presented for prediction of sonic boom noise, especially focusing on the effect of the nose shape of the train on the resultant noise. Acoustic theory for monopole source is used to represent a nose shape of the train in wave equation. Compression wave propagation in tunnel considering tunnel track condition and emission of sonic boom was calculated. The predicted compression waves and impulsive sound waves are compared with recent measurements, and show reasonable agreements.

The numerical simulations on the train entering a tunnel were performed by solving unsteady axi-symmetric problems. In the case that 5th order velocity profile is used to reduce the effects of the pressure wave generated by the train starting abruptly, the effect of the initial distance between the train and the tunnel were examined. The impulsive start gives undesired pressure disturbances to the flow field including inside the tunnel. But 5th order velocity profile with initial distance more than 80 m gives much stable pressure variance in time, and pressure distribution inside the tunnel in space. The distance to the train reaches the highest running velocity from the start should be more than 80 m when the train speed is 350 km/h.

When a high-speed railway train enters a tunnel, a compression wave is generated ahead of the train and propagates along the tunnel, compressing and accelerating the rest air in front of the wave. At the exit of the tunnel, an impulsive wave is emitted outward toward the surrounding, which causes a positive impulsive noise like a kind of sonic boom produced by a supersonic aircraft. With the advent of high-speed train, such an impulsive noise can be large enough to cause the noise problem, unless some attempts are made to alleviate its pressure levels. For the purpose of the impulsive noise reduction, the present study investigated the effect of a vertical bleed duct on the compression wave propagating into a model tunnel. Numerical results were obtained using a Piecewise Linear Method and testified by experiment of shock tube with an open end. The results showed that the vertical bleed duct reduces the maximum pressure gradient of compression wave front by about 30 percent, compared with the straight tunnel without the bleed duct. As the width of the vertical bleed duct becomes larger, reduction of the impulsive noise is expected to be greater. However the impulsive noise is independent of the height of the vertical bleed duct.

When a high-speed railway train enters a tunnel, a compression wave is generated ahead of the train and propagates through the tunnel, compressing and accelerating the rest air in front of the wave. At the exit of the tunnel, an impulsive wave is emitted outward toward the surrounding, which causes a positive impulsive noise like a kind of sonic boom produced by a supersonic aircraft. With the advent of high-speed train, such an impulsive noise can be large enough to cause the noise problem, unless some attempts are made to alleviate its pressure levels. In the purpose of the impulsive noise reduction, the present study calculated the effect of porous walls on the compression wave propagating into a model tunnel. Two-dimensional unsteady compressible equations were differenced by using a Piecewise Linear Method. Calculation results show that the cavity/porous wall system is very effective for a compression wave with a large nonlinear effect. The porosity of 30% is most effective for the reduction of the maximum pressure gradient of the compression wave front. The present calculation results are in a good agreement with experimental ones obtained previously.

The porosity of 30% is most effective for attenuation and pressure gradient reduction of the compression wave front. Also the impulsive noise reduction increases with increasing the length and height of the cavity, compared with the tunnel equivalent diameter.
