Abstract

Excessive interior noise of high-speed trains causes annoyance, fatigue and stress to passengers. Moreover, the noise occurred in gangway is greater than other noise in the room. Therefore, a research for gangway noise reduction was carried out. At first, cavity noise which causes major noise between car-sections was simulated with Fluent 6.0 (computer fluid dynamics program). From the simulation result, the flow feedback loop phenomena in the cavity were observed. Then, noise measurements at internal and external positions in between-cars sections were conducted during the driving of a high-speed train. From the measurement results, noise characteristics of gangway and between-cars section were identified. Finally, noise mitigation methods were suggested in this paper.
