Abstract

This paper proposes a simulation method for the dynamic response of the compressed 102-type coupler and draft gear based on test data, and then studies the dynamic performance of the heavy-haul locomotive and its 102-type coupler and draft gear for the 10,000-ton heavy-haul train with double locomotive traction marshalling. Firstly, based on the structural characteristics and compressed stability mechanism of 102-type coupler and draft gear, the weighted discrete method is used to simplify the draft gear into multiple impedance force elements with the same hysteresis characteristics, and the shear stiffness is introduced to consider the shear effect between these impedance force elements. By this way, the dynamic model of 102-type coupler and draft gear is established to simulate the one-side compressed characteristics of the coupler shoulder and draft gear accurately. And then the model of 10,000-ton train with the marshalling of “master locomotive + re-connected locomotive + freight vehicle + dummy freight train” is developed by using the substructure method; Then the shear stiffness between the discrete impedance force elements is confirmed and this train dynamic model is also verified by comparing the simulation results with test data. Finally, the influences of track conditions, structural parameters and locomotive electrical braking forces on the train dynamics response and running safety are calculated. The results indicate that the large locomotive electric braking forces on small radius curves are very dangerous for the train running safety; With the increases of the coupler free angle and the lateral stiffness of locomotive secondary suspension, the coupler rotation angle and locomotive running safety index increase gradually, but too large lateral stiffness may strength the wheel-rail lateral interaction.
