PD CEN/TS 13103‑2 is the second part of a multi-series of standards on railway application.
PD CEN/TS 13103‑2 covers the following:
The calculation of wheelsets for special applications (e.g. rail-bound construction and maintenance machines) can be made according to PD CEN/TS 13103‑2 only for the load cases of free-rolling and rolling in a train formation.
NOTE: PD CEN/TS 13103‑2 applies only for heavy rail vehicles.
PD CEN/TS 13103‑2 on railway wheelsets and bogies is useful for:
PD CEN/TS 13103‑2 provides the major phases for the design of an axle and describes the maximum permissible stresses applied on it.
Type of forces and effects of moments are described in PD CEN/TS 13103‑2 as a function of the masses in motion, braking system and traction for rolling stock.
PD CEN/TS 13103‑2 explains the geometric characteristics of the various parts of the axle and the diameter of journals and axle bodies and various seats from the diameter of the axle body or from the journals.
PD CEN/TS 13103‑2 gives you the details on maximum permissible stresses applied on solid and hollow axles of steel grade EA1N, EA1T and EA4T4 for powered and non-powered axles.
Furthermore, PD CEN/TS 13103‑2 help you manufacture railway vehicle axles with the defined designing method to provide a better and safe operation of rail vehicles and ensure high reliability in terms of power/torque and different types of strength.
