Experimental study on aerodynamic forces acting on train passing through a tornado-like swirling flow

The aerodynamic forces acting on a train travelling in a tornado-like swirling flow were investigated using a tornado simulator and a moving model rig. Rectangular shaped vehicles in scale 1/40 and 1/67 and a round-roofed vehicle in scale 1/40 were used. Two types of tornado-like swirling flow, one-...
