Verification of the conicities according to UIC 519 and EN 15302  




The standards UIC 519 and EN 15302 both contains appendixes with verification examples. Comparisons between KPF and the standards are shown below.

On the Y-axis is the equivalent conicity.
On the X-axis is the amplitude of the wheelset.

The small green crosses marks the results calculated by program KPF.
The read line marks the results from the standards.
The green line marks the upper tolerance
The blue line marks the lower tolerance




WheelA RailA




WheelB RailA




WheelH RailA




WheelI RailA




WheelA(-2 mm on left wheel diameter) RailA




WheelB(-2 mm on left wheel diameter) RailA




WheelH(-2 mm on left wheel diameter) RailA




WheelI(-2 mm on left wheel diameter) RailA




(Right Wheel A - Left Wheel B) RailA




As can be seen above, all results are well within the tolerance limits.
