School of Aeronautical Engineering, Queen’s University Belfast Turbulent Wind Flow over a High Speed Train R K Cooper School of Aeronautical Engineering Queen’s University Belfast Acknowledgement: To Network Rail WCML for permission to Use experimental data obtained by BMT Fluid Mechanics Ltd.

School of Aeronautical Engineering, Queen’s University Belfast Cross wind effects on trains Low mass passenger vehicles may be blown over. Wind tunnel tests used to give force and moment data Probability of overturning may be evaluated Wind tunnel data shows large variability Effect of turbulence? Effect of embankment? Effect of train motion? Moving model experiments Expensive and difficult May create more problems than they solve Will CFD give the answer?

School of Aeronautical Engineering, Queen’s University Belfast Coefficient of side force vs. yaw angle significant variation between wind tunnel tests depends on turbulence intensity and scale

School of Aeronautical Engineering, Queen’s University Belfast CFD shows promise for accurate simulation of Flow over train on embankment Forces and moments Train motion over ground Problems Turbulence intensity and length scale important Ground roughness should be adjusted for correct wind profile Conclusions CFD may extend the range of wind tunnel data Train motion over ground Unsteady flow, e.g. gust simulation
