Description

This outstanding thesis characterises the aerodynamic flow around a container freight train, investigating how changing container loading configurations affect the magnitude of aerodynamic forces measured on containers. Conducted through 1/25th scale moving-model freight train experiments at the University of Birmingham's TRAIN rig facility, the research investigates slipstream velocities and static pressure using a specifically designed on-board pressure monitoring system to measure aerodynamic loads on containers. Results are compared with full-scale data and assessed in terms of European standards, providing essential insights into freight train aerodynamics and container stability during transport operations.

Key Features

The thesis examines how container loading configurations directly impact aerodynamic forces on a container freight train.

1/25th scale moving-model experiments at the University of Birmingham's TRAIN rig facility provide controlled aerodynamic testing data.

On-board pressure monitoring system measures slipstream velocities and static pressure around the container freight train.

Results compare moving-model data with full-scale measurements to validate aerodynamic findings for practical freight train applications.

Published by Springer as part of the Springer Theses collection, this engineering research addresses container freight train performance.
