Abstract

This study was carried out to reduce the lateral vibration of high-speed electric multiple units. In the study, the high-speed electric multiple unit prototype (HEMU-430X) has a high lateral vibration at low equivalent conicity regardless of the wheel profiles (XP55, GV40, S1002). As wheel wear progresses and the equivalent conicity increases, the lateral vibration tends to decrease. The reason is that a combination of the suspension characteristics causes the body and bogie to resonate at a frequency of 1.4 Hz when the equivalent conicity is low, resulting in body hunting. An investigation of the lateral vibration of overseas high-speed trains showed that a decrease in the hydraulic stiffness of the yaw damper could improve the vibration. The series stiffness of the yaw damper is a combination of the hydraulic stiffness and elastic joint. In this study, an attempt was made to improve the lateral vibration by lowering the stiffness of the elastic joint. The series stiffness of the adjusted yaw damper was approximately 60% compared to the original one. The on track test results showed improvement in the lateral vibration for both running directions. The vibration reduction method of this study can be used for EMU-250 and EMU-320 in future commercial operations.

본 연구는 동력분산형 고속열차의 횡방향 진동을 저감하기 위하여 진행되었다. 동역학 해석을 통한 연구에서 동력분산형 고속열차 시제차량(HEMU-430X)은 고속열차에서 주로 사용되는 차륜프로파일(XP55, GV40, S1002)에 관계없이 낮은 등가답면구배에서 횡방향 진동이 커지고, 차륜 마모가 진행되어 등가답면구배가 커지면 횡진동이 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 이는 HEMU-430X에 적용된 현가장치 특성치들의 조합된 결과로 인해 등가답면구배가 낮을 때 차체와 대차가 1.4Hz의 주파수로 공진하여 차체 헌팅이 발생되기 때문이다. 고속열차의 횡방향 진동저감에 대한 해외 사례에서 요댐퍼의 유압강성(Hydraulic stiffness)을 낮추어 진동을 개선한 사례를 고찰하였다. 요댐퍼의 시리즈 강성은 유압강성과 탄성조인트의 조합인데 본 연구에서는 유압강성 조정대신 비교적 간단하게 할 수 있는 탄성조인트의 강성을 낮추어 횡방향 진동을 개선하고자 하였다. 신규 제작된 탄성조인트를 적용한 요댐퍼의 시리즈 강성은 기존 요댐퍼 대비 60% 수준으로 낮았다. 60% 수준의 시리즈 강성이 적용된 요댐퍼를 HEMU-430X의 TC~M2 3량에 설치하여 시운전 시험을 수행하였다. 시운전 시험 결과 TC를 선두로 한 하행 주행 시 TC~M1의 횡방향 진동이 개선되고, MC를 선두로 한 상행 주행 시 후미 TC차량의 횡진동이 개선되는 결과를 보였다. 본 연구의 진동저감 방안은 향후 영업운전을 위해 도입되는 EMU-250 및 EMU-320의 횡방향 진동 문제 발생 시 해결책으로 적용할 수 있다.
