The invention relates to the technical field of aerodynamic optimization of
rail transit vehicles, and particularly discloses a convex
hull type roof structure of a high-speed
train based on pneumatic resistance reduction. Aiming at the problems that an existing high-speed
train is high in aerodynamic resistance proportion and the traditional streamline design is limited in resistance reduction effect, a convex
hull type non-smooth structure is arranged in a streamline area of a
train roof, and the
airflow flowing state is optimized. The parameters of the convex
hull structure are as follows: the height is 60 mm to 120 mm, the
radius is 450 mm to 600 mm, and the array spacing is 100 mm to 500 mm. The optimal implementation parameters are as follows: the height is 109 mm, the
radius is 580 mm, and the array spacing is 347 mm. According to the structure, by postponing boundary layer separation, wake flow vortex strength and turbulent flow
kinetic energy are reduced, and aerodynamic resistance is remarkably reduced. Through numerical
simulation and experiment
verification, the aerodynamic resistance of the whole vehicle is reduced by 13.2%-25.1%, and the resistance is reduced to 25.1% under the optimal working condition. The device is simple in structure, avoids a roof equipment mounting area, has efficient resistance reduction and
engineering applicability, and can provide an
effective solution for
energy conservation and emission reduction of a high-speed train.
