Abstract

Wheel reprofiling is frequently conducted to remove faults such as flange wear, flat areas, and cracks that occur in railway vehicle operation. We analyzed the dynamic performances of a vehicle before and after wheel reprofiling to grasp the influence of reprofiling on the dynamic behavior of the vehicle. We measured the wheel profile of the test vehicle and conducted a running test to analyze the vibration and comfort characteristics of the test vehicle. The result of the test indicated that vibration of the test vehicle after wheel reprofiling was reduced compared to that before wheel reprofiling. And, comfort level of the test vehicle after wheel reprofiling was improved by about 3dB laterally and vertically. Consequently, the positive effect of wheel reprofiling on the dynamic performance of vehicle was verified.

철도차량 영업 운행 중 빈번히 발생하는 차륜 마모, 손상 등의 결함을 제거하기 위하여 실시되는 차륜 전삭 공정과 관련하여 전삭 전후의 차량 동적성능을 분석하였다. 전동차를 대상으로 차륜 전삭 전후의 차륜답면형상을 계측, 분석하였으며 진동 및 승차감 특성을 분석하고자 차량 주행시험을 실시하였다. 시험결과, 차륜 전삭 후 차량 진동 RMS값은 전삭 전에 비하여 저감되었으며 철도차량 기술기준에 의거 분석한 차체 진동성능은 전삭 전에 비하여 개선되었다. 승차감레벨은 전삭 전에 비하여 전삭 후 좌우, 상하방향 모두 최대 약 3dB의 개선 효과를 보였으며 주행안전성 또한 개선됨을 확인하였다.
