바이모달 트램 제동장치 특성 분석

The diverse demands on the public transportation are increasing such as the punctuality like a train and the flexibility like a bus. In order to satisfy such requirements, the bimodal tram as a new public transportation system was developed, which can run on either dedicated road or conventional road. The bimodal tram is equipped with the pneumatic disk brake system to reduce the speed safely. In the present study, the configuration and characteristics of brake system for the bimodal tram was introduced. Braking performance calculation data satisfied EU and Korean regulations for brake force distribution. In order to verify brake force distribution the design pressure and the experimental pressure of brake cylinders were compared.
