European foreword
This document (CEN/TR 17315:2019) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 256 “Railway

Introduction
EN 15595 for Wheel Slide Protection (WSP) provides methods for testing a WSP system (Clause 7) and
criteria for the evaluation of its performance under test (Clause 8). This includes tests and evaluation of
the stopping performance of a vehicle/train with the WSP system fitted, carried out as track tests or on a
WSP simulator.
For the evaluation of stopping performance during slide tests (see 8.3), the standard specifies the
maximum permitted stopping distance extension for a vehicle/train, measured as a percentage of its dry
rail stopping distance (Table 8). The maximum extension values are derived from estimations of the
wheel/rail adhesion improvement produced by the operation of the WSP system and the associated
vehicle stopping distances expected in the slide tests, calculated as detailed in this document.
1 Scope
This document gives guidelines for the calculation of vehicle stopping distances when testing a WSP
system using the methods specified in EN 15595, the standard for Wheel Slide Protection, under the
conditions defined in that standard.
This document is only applicable to the calculation of stopping distances for the evaluation of the results
of WSP tests carried out in accordance with EN 15595.
This document does not apply to calculations used to determine the stopping performance of a WSP
equipped train under operational conditions as it is only applicable for specific WSP test conditions.

5 Calculations
5.1 Wheel/rail adhesion improvement
5.1.1 General
The formulae in this clause are means that give an indication for the stopping distance that can be
achieved by a certain trainset with low adhesion.
The formulae take into account different characteristics of the vehicle that are tested and are a practicable
compromise to evaluate track tests.
The formulae cannot give exact values for the stopping distance in true conditions. Therefore each result
is evaluated according to the flow chart given in EN 15595:2018, Figure 4.
5.1.2 Stopping distance calculation

where
s is the stopping distance, expressed in m;

t is the build-up time of the brake cylinder pressure up to 95 % of the maximum

For unbraked wheelsets τ is set to zero, for braked wheelsets τ is taken from the brake calculation:

where
τ is the τ of the wheelsets number i, where i is between 1 and n.
i
Examples of the use of theses formulae are shown in Annex A.
5.1.3 Dry rail conditions
The actual measured stopping distance in dry conditions, with WSP operational, is the stopping distance
corresponding to the nominal performance required for the vehicle within the specified tolerances.
τ is calculated from Formula (2) for dry rail conditions.
ave,dry
The friction coefficients τ should be taken from the brake calculation, updated after the brake
i,dry
distance measurement. If the measured frictional coefficient depends on the initial speed, the mean
frictional coefficient for the different speed classes can be used.
5.1.4 Low adhesion
The aim of the WSP under low adhesion conditions is to improve the levels of wheel/rail adhesion
experienced by the wheelsets by attempting to control at an absolute slide of up to 30 km/h at speeds
greater than 40 km/h.
Wheel/rail adhesion improvement is measured using WSP equipment alone, without any other adhesion
enhancing equipment such as magnetic track brake, sanding, etc.
=
WSP can be configured to improve wheel/rail adhesion by controlling the slide. Experience has shown
that for sprayed rails the WSP can achieve an improved wheel/rail adhesion τ . This can be
wet,improved
estimated for each sprayed wheelset using Formula (3). This estimation is valid only if the initial speed
is higher than 80 km/h. Below 80 km/h, τ can be taken as the measured initial wheel/rail
wet,improved
adhesion.

NOTE 2 Formula (3) has been derived from the experience of the traditional brake rate for coaches and has the
additional factors to modify the improvement from the experience of vehicles with a higher and lower braking rates
achieving different improvements of the wheel/rail adhesion with WSP operation.
The number of wheelsets experiencing low adhesion is shown in Table 2 dependent on train length.
