An experimental 3D volumetric study of train aerodynamics

University of Birmingham Department of Mechanical Engineering

The aerodynamic slipstream created as a high-speed passenger train moves through the air is highly turbulent in nature. In particular the wake region is known to contain a series of helical vortices, which spread laterally into the far wake region, potentially affecting the stability of trackside workers. Read more
