Development History

This page tries to summarize the algorithm used for realistic train acceleration.

[edit] Units used

[v] = mph

[P] = W

[m] = t

[edit] Formulas

F = 22P / 10v [N]

n — number of cars

μ = 35 (eq. 1e-3 ?) — coefficient of friction

A = 120 — area (units?)

d = 20+3n — drag coefficient

i = Σ 60simi — incline term, summed over cars

si — slope, -1 (going down), 0, or 1

mi — mass of the car

Fr = 4(13m / 10 + 60n + μmv / 1000 + Adv2/10000 + i) [N]

a = (F - Fr) / (m * 4) [m s-2]
