DEVELOPMENT OF PROGRAM SYSTEM FOR TRAIN PERFORMANCE COMPUTATION

The Japanese National Railways has developed a program of train performance calculations which are effectively utilized. The system can compute standard running times, temperature rise for traction motors, power consumption, RMS current and similar factors. The program is applied not only to operations of the ordinary lines but also to the automatic-train-control operations of the Shinkansen routes.
