For a high speed train driving at 300 km/h, aero-acoustic noise is a dominant component among various noise sources. The aeroacoustic noise is mainly due to inter-coach spacings because discontinuities in the train surface significantly disturb turbulent flows. This often leads to the uncomfortableness of passengers. Interestingly, the aero-acoustic noise reduces with decreasing the mud-flap spacing of the inter-couch spacing. We perform numerical simulations to investigate flow characteristics around the inter-coach spacing. We model the inter-coach spacing as a simple 2-D cavity with flaps, and calculate the velocity and pressure field using two equation turbulence models, varying the flap spacing. The results show that a wider flap spacing develops a higher inflection point in mean velocity profiles over the cavity. It is likely that large eddies generated near the inflection point persist longer in the downstream since they are less affected by the wall. This probably induces the more aero-acoustic noises. The wider spacing also results in the larger pressure difference between the inside and outside of the cavity. This is also responsible for the increased noise since the large difference would cause a strong flow oscillations in and out of the cavity.

고속열차의 속도가 300km/h 이상이 되면 난류의 박리나 와류발산 등에 의한 공력소음의 영향이 지배적이 된다. 본 연구에서는 KTX와 한국형고속열차의 외부에서 발생하는 공력소음, 특히 차간 공간에서 발생하는 소음의 특성을 시험을 통해 규명한다. 차량 실내외의 소음 측정을 통해 이 소음의 특성을 분석하였고, 풍동시험을 통해 머드플랩 사이의 틈의 크기가 저주파 소음 발생에 직접적인 영향을 준다는 것을 규명하였다. 또한 마이크로폰어에이 시험으로 고속열차의 외부에서 발생하는 소음의 주파수 특성을 분석하였다.

An analysis and design method for reducing aerodynamic noise in high-speed trains based on biomimetics of noiseless flight of owl is proposed. Wind tunnel testing and numerical CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulation for the basic inter-coach spacing model are carried out, and their results compared. To determine the effect of scaling of the owl's flight feather on the noise reduction, two-fold and a four-fold scaled up model of the feather are constructed, and the numerical simulations are carried out to obtain the aerodynamic noise levels for each scale. Original model is found to reduce the noise level by 10 dB, while two-fold increase in length dimensions reduces the noise by 12 dB. Validation of numerical solution using wind tunnel experimental measurements are presented as well.

Experiments were performed to investigate the effects of mud-flap width on the aeroacoustic noise generation inside high-speed trains. The open-circuit type wind tunnel was used. The measurement setup was custom-built to simulate intercoach spacing. From the measurements, the characteristics of the turbulent flow after the intercoach spacing and consequent generation of aeroacoustic noise inside the cabin was investigated. Especially the effects of mud flap length on the characteristics of the characteristics of the turbulent flow were identified. The mechanism of noise generation by analyzed interactions with structure vibration characteristics and generation characteristics of blocked pressure was investigated.

When fluid at high speed flows over an open cavity, large acoustic pressure fields inside the cavity are produced by fluid/structure interactions at the downstream end of the cavity. The inter-coach spacing is one of the most important sources of the aero-acoustic noise of a high-speed train. This noise can usually be heard as low frequency structure-borne noise inside the train. In this study experiments were performed in order to investigate the effects of mud-flap length on the aeroacoustic noise generation inside high-speed trains. Results of the measurement confirmed that the characteristics of the noise generated from the inter-coach spacing are strongly dependent on the size of the gap. Also investigated are the characteristics of the turbulent flow after the inter-coach spacing and consequent generation of the aeroacoustic noise inside the cabin.

2차로 양방향 도로(이하 2차로 도로)의 주요한 특징은 화물차량 등의 저속차량으로 인하여 발생하는 차량군과 차량추월 행태이다. 차량추종과 차량추월모형이 결합된 2차로 도로 교통류 모형을 개발하기 위해서는 2차로 도로에 적합한 차량추종모형의 개발이 필수적이다. 2차로 도로에서 고속차량은 저속차량의 후미에서 차량추종을 수행함과 더불어 추월을 수행하게 되며, 이 과정에서 짧은 차간거리가 발생하게 된다. 또한 저속차량을 추종하는 차량은 대항교통류의 차두시간분포 내에서 적정 공간을 이용하여 차량추월을 결정하게 된다. 따라서 2차로 차량추종모형은 짧은 차간거리에서 차량주행과 더불어 차두시간분포를 설명해야 한다. 추가적으로 국내의 2차로 도로규모를 고려하면 대규모 도로망을 모의실험할 수 있는 모형이 필요한 실정이다. 국내의 경우, 2차로 차량추종모형에 대한 연구는 거의 보고되고 있지 않다. 본 연구에서는 대규모 가로망에 적용이 가능하면서 2차로 도로의 차량추종행태를 보다 현실적으로 구현할 수 있는 모형을 개발하였다. 개발된 모형의 실험적 평가 결과, 혼잡 교통류의 특성 중 하나인 가다서다(stop-and-go) 현상과 차두시간분포를 효과적으로 설명하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 본 연구에서 제시된 차량추종모형이 차량추월모형과 결합된 경우, 보다 현실적으로 2차로 도로 교통류를 설명할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Today, high-speed trains enjoy wide acceptance as fast, convenient and environment-friendly means of transportation. However, increase in the speed of the train entails a concomitant increase in the aerodynamic noise, adversely affecting the passenger comfort. At the train speed exceeding 300 km/h, the effects of turbulent flows and vortex sheddding are greatly amplified, contributing to a significant increase in the aerodynamic noise. Drawing a biomimetic analogy from low-noise flight of owl, a method to reduce aerodynamic noise at inter-coach space of high-speed trains is investigated. The proposed method attempts to achieve the noise reduction by modifying the turbulent flow and vortex shedding characteristics at the inter-coach space. To determine the aerodynamic noise at various train speeds, wind tunnel testing and numerical CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulation for the basic inter-coach spacing model are carried out, and their results compared. The simulation and experimental results reveal that there are discrete frequency components associated with turbulent air flow at constant intervals in the frequency domain
