Tests to determine the automatic braking systems characteristics of gondola cars of domestic production
Journal Title: Metallurgical and Mining Industry - Year 2017, Vol 9, Issue 1
Abstract
Railway transport plays a crucial part in the integrated transport system of the country, considerably influencing economic ties between producers and consumers of products, areas and economic regions of Ukraine with foreign countries. Thus, increasing the speed of movement of both empty and loaded freight cars is an important and relevant scientific and applied problem. The solution of this problem is directly connected with a necessity of ensuring the proper level of security, which largely depends on the characteristics of automated braking systems of gondola cars as the most common type of rolling stock. The article presents the peculiarities and results of braking tests of gondola cars of PJSC “DMZ” production. In addition, these tests included a stationary and train brake studies with the determination of relevant characteristics.
