The high-speed train network is growing fast worldwide, particularly in China. Many of the lines pass close to urban areas so the external noise produced by the trains is of great interest to town planners and train manufacturers alike.
This paper presents a detailed investigation into the contributions of the various high-speed train sound sources, such as the bogie, pantograph, coach center, etc., to the exterior noise, both experimentally and through simulations.
Experiment and simulations
The measurement points of pass-by noise were arranged according to the international standard ISO 3095. The noise source identification was conducted using a 78-channel wheel microphone array, and the rail vehicle moving source beamforming method was used for the source analysis. A numerical model of the exterior noise of the high-speed train was established based on the array acoustics method and the inputs come from the array measurements.
