Analysis of aerodynamic and aeroacoustic behaviour of a simplified high-speed train bogie
As one of the main aerodynamic noise sources of high-speed trains, the bogie is a complex structure containing many components and the flow around it is extremely dynamic with high-level turbulence. Flow around a simplified bogie at scale 1:10 is studied numerically using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) for comparison with experimental measurements. The upstream inlet flow is represented as a steady uniform flow of low turbulence level in the simulations. Following a rigorous grid refinement study, multi-block fully structured meshes with hexahedral cells are generated for all cases to improve numerical efficiency and accuracy. The aerodynamic and aeroacoustic behaviour of the flow past an isolated wheelset, tandem wheelsets and a simplified bogie are investigated.

Abstract

As one of the main aerodynamic noise sources of high-speed trains, the bogie is a complex structure containing many components and the flow around it is extremely dynamic with high-level turbulence. Flow around a simplified bogie at scale 1:10 is studied numerically using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) for comparison with experimental measurements. The upstream inlet flow is represented as a steady uniform flow of low turbulence level in the simulations. Following a rigorous grid refinement study, multi-block fully structured meshes with hexahedral cells are generated for all cases to improve numerical efficiency and accuracy. The aerodynamic and aeroacoustic behaviour of the flow past an isolated wheelset, tandem wheelsets and a simplified bogie are investigated.
