P5_2 Fluid Dynamics of a Near Supersonic Train
Abstract
This paper investigates the effect on wind behaviour of allowing the trains of the London underground to accelerate to near super-sonic speeds i.e. Mach 0.9. The paper calculates the magnitude of the piston effect of a deep underground train arriving at a platform on a human and finds this value to be 67.7N of constant force.
