    Numerical Simulations of Snow Accumulation in the Bogie Region of a Train Considering Snow Particle Rotation

    Hong Lan1,3, Jiye Zhang1,*, Yao Zhang1, Lu Cai2

    FDMP-Fluid Dynamics & Materials Processing, Vol.20, No.10, pp. 2337-2352, 2024, DOI:10.32604/fdmp.2024.052609 - 23 September 2024

    Abstract To investigate the influence of snow particle rotational motion on the accumulation of snow in the bogie region of high-speed trains, an Euler‒Lagrange numerical approach is adopted. The study examines the effects of snow particle diameter and train speed on the ensuing dynamics. It is shown that considering snow particle rotational motion causes significant deviation in the particle trajectories with respect to non-rotating particles. Such a deviation increases with larger snow particle diameters and higher train speeds. The snow accumulation on the overall surface of the bogie increases, and the amount of snow on the More >

    Analysis of Snow Distribution and Displacement in the Bogie Region of a High-Speed Train

    Zhihui Du1, Mengge Yu1,*, Jiali Liu2, Xiulong Yao1

    FDMP-Fluid Dynamics & Materials Processing, Vol.20, No.7, pp. 1687-1701, 2024, DOI:10.32604/fdmp.2024.047315 - 23 July 2024

    Abstract Snow interacting with a high-speed train can cause the formation of ice in the train bogie region and affect its safety. In this study, a wind-snow multiphase numerical approach is introduced for high-speed train bogies on the basis of the Euler-Lagrange discrete phase model. A particle-wall impact criterion is implemented to account for the presence of snow particles on the surface. Subsequently, numerical simulations are conducted, considering various snow particle diameter distributions and densities. The research results indicate that when the particle diameter is relatively small, the distribution of snow particles in the bogie cavity More >

    Effect of Bogie Cavity End Wall Inclination on Flow Field and Aerodynamic Noise in the Bogie Region of High-Speed Trains

    Jiawei Shi, Jiye Zhang*

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.139, No.2, pp. 2175-2195, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2023.043539 - 29 January 2024

    Abstract Combining the detached eddy simulation (DES) method and Ffowcs Williams-Hawkings (FW-H) equation, the effect of bogie cavity end wall inclination on the flow field and aerodynamic noise in the bogie region is numerically studied. First, the simulation is conducted based on a simplified cavity-bogie model, including five cases with different inclination angles of the front and rear walls of the cavity. By comparing and analyzing the flow field and acoustic results of the five cases, the influence of the regularity and mechanism of the bogie cavity end wall inclination on the flow field and the… More >

    Numerical Investigation of the Deposition Characteristics of Snow on the Bogie of a High-Speed Train

    Lu Cai1, Zhen Lou1, Nan Liu2, Chao An2, Jiye Zhang1, *

    FDMP-Fluid Dynamics & Materials Processing, Vol.16, No.1, pp. 41-53, 2020, DOI:10.32604/fdmp.2020.07731 - 01 February 2020

    Abstract To investigate the deposition distribution of snow particles in the bogie surfaces of a high-speed train, a snow particle deposition model, based on the critical capture velocity and the critical shear velocity, was elaborated. Simulations based on the unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) approach coupled with Discrete Phase Model (DPM) were used to analyze the motion of snow particles. The results show that the cross beam of the bogie frame, the anti-snake damper, the intermediate brake clamps in the rear wheels, the traction rod and the anti-rolling torsion bar are prone to accumulate snow. The accumulation… More >
