Abstract

The equation of Resistance to motion of the Korean high-speed train has been calculated and evaluated using train speed measurements gathered from coasting tests in the speed range from 30km/h to 300km/h and wind tunnel test of 1/25th scale model. The factors of resistance to motion have been decomposed into various coefficients which compose the coefficients of Davis equation referring the general resistance to motion equation of KTX train. The coefficients of Korean high-speed train has been calculated using the measurements of coasting tests and the results of wind tunnel test has been implemented to consider the minor shape modification after the coasting tests.
