Design and Performance Study of Brake System for Korean High Speed Rail

한국형 고속전철의 제동시스템 설계 및 성능 연구

The study was carried out about the design and the performance study of brake system for Korean High Speed Train of maximum operating speed of 350km/h. The brake system was studied to two parts the function of brake system and the performance of brake system base on Korean-TGV. According to the simulation of brake system, the train should be provided the eddy current brake system for maximum operating speed of 350km/h. The eddy current brake system take charge of about 31% on normal condition and about 22% on emergency by condition. The performance study of brake system would be continued for definition of adhesion factor un friction factor assumed to analysis and simulation.
