  1. 1. MODELLING OF HEAT TRANSFER OF RAILWAY SWITCH HEATING

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Siddharth Suresh Sumathi; [2023]
    Keywords : Conjugate Heat transfer analysis; transient analysis; CFD; insulation; measurement data uncertainties.; Konjugat Värmeöverföringsanalys; transientanalys; CFD; isolering; mätdata osäkerheter.;

    Abstract : Switches and crossings are vital components of the railway network. Obstacles to the smooth functioning of these components could result in delays and network traffic. Given the geographical location of Sweden, snow is one of the major obstacles for the switches. READ MORE

  2. 2. Energy Usage in Railway Wayside Object Heating : Modeling of melting of Ice, Estimation of heating power requirement in Switch and Renewable energy feasibility for a Railway system

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Sidharth Kapoor; [2022]
    Keywords : Melting of Ice; Numerical modeling; Transient conjugate heat transfer; Transient analysis; CFD; Switch heating; Heat pumps in Railways; Issmältning; Numerisk modellering; Transient värmeöverföring; Transientanalys; CFD; Värmepumpar i järnvägar;

    Abstract : Trafikverket operates about 12000 Switches and crossings (SnCs) of which 6800 are equipped with an electrical heating system of 10−30kW power to keep SnCs functional throughout the winters by keeping them free of Snow/Ice. The energy consumption is approximately 200−130GWh/year costing approximately 10−15 million Euros annually. READ MORE

  3. 3. Modeling fault probability in single railroad turnouts in Eastern Region, Sweden, with the use of logistic regression models : A step from preventive to predictive preventive maintenance in railway maintenance planning

    University essay from KTH/Transportplanering

    Author : Filipp Zarov; [2019]
    Keywords : maintenance planning; railway turnouts; malfunction probability modeling; object-oriented databases; logistic regression models; underhållsplanering; spårväxlar; felsannolikhet modellering; objektorienterad databas; logistiska regressionsmodeller;

    Abstract : Turnouts are an important part of railway infrastructure for two reasons: infrastructure andmaintenance. For the infrastructure they provide the flexibility to allow the formulation and branchingof railway network and for maintenance they consume a large part of maintenance budget and have aprominent place in maintenance planning policy and activities.
