3201 Modeling and evaluation of thermal environment in railway vehicle cabin

Abstract

In this study, to improve a passenger comfort of railway vehicle cabin, a thermal environment in the cabin was reproduced in CFD analysis. And comfortable prediction under the environment was carried out. As a result of comparing calculation results with the results of actual measurement, it was able to reappear with sufficient accuracy about temperature and wind speed. And it was able to reappear with comparatively sufficient accuracy about comfortable prediction.
