Aerodynamics of high speed passenger trains

Last updated on 06 March 2020 12:23

The impact of moving ground and rotating wheels on the flow around a high-speed train has been numerically investigated. k-epsilon turbulence model was used in the CFD simulation as the Reynolds number is 1.85x106 based on the airflow velocity and height of the train. The total aerodynamic drag was calculated...
