Resource calculation of weared equipment for electric trains of the ES2G series
The article discusses the impact of operating conditions on the wear of the wheels for ES2G electric trains. Thanks to the information on the controlled parameters of the wheel pairs (rolling, flange thickness and rim diameter) of ES2G electric trains operated by the MCC (Moscow Central Circle ) and the Oktyabrskaya Railway, a comparative analysis of the wear surface intensities of the rolling surfaces for seamless-rolled wheelsets has been performed. The analysis of the dependences of the mathematical expectation for the controlled parameter on the operating time showed that the wear rate of the rim for the electric trains operated by the MCC is 2,9 % higher than by the Oktyabrskaya Railway. Similar results were obtained for milling bar (2,33 % ) and the ridge thickness (24,3). Based on the results , it was concluded that the wheelsets wear of the ES2G series electric trains differs significantly in the two compared sections of circulation. Electric trains serving the Oktyabrsky direction has the intensity wheel pair wear lower than the trains serving the MCC. This will allow more time before turning to restore the profile of the rolling surface. The estimated value for the durability indicator of 90 % of the resource before changing the wheel pairs for the maximum wear of the rim is 2 million km at the MCC and 4.4 million km at the Oktyabrskaya Railway.
