Been meaning to ask this question for while.

When using air single pipe with a max brake pipe pressure of 72.5 PSI. I set the full service brake pipe deduction to 22 PSI. So when the brake pipe pressure is at 50.5 PSI and the triple valve ratio is set at 2.5, my brake cylinder pressure should be 55 PSI but never rises above 52 PSI. 2.5 x 22 = 55. This also occurred in MSTS.

Am i missing something obvious?

Thanks

I am not overly familiar with the code in this section, so I can't commit to fixing it at this time.

I think that in the current version X3618 brake pipe pressure builds up way to fast and on a long train there is too much difference in pressure between the front and rear end during brake pipe charging. In stable version 1.1.1.3487 brake pipe charging is much slower and more even along the brake pipe length.

Agree Bane. The Equalizing Reservoir cannot have the brake pipe trail it at the same rate of speed all the time during both brake sets an releases. Long freight trains it makes seam like its always going to be a ECP train an those special ORTS brake parameters I use for variables are not performing like they use to anymore.

OR ignored parameter brake pipe charging rate. OR does not include volume of auxilary reservoir on wagons to the consumption of main resevoir. Include only volume auxilary reservoir on locomotive and volume of brake pipe the whole train. See my videos post #35.

I think that these two issues have been addressed in #3625.

I have question:
Broken locomotive brake

EngineBrakesControllerFullServicePressureDrop ( 73 )


Open Rails
Psi/Bar
73/0
50/1,6
49/1,7
30/3
20/3,7
15/4
10/4,3

MSTS
Psi/Bar
50/3,4
49/3,3
30/2
20/1,3
15/1
10/0,6

Why it does not work in Open Rails as MSTS. Why does it need to enter those values differently.

What is best setting to Brake pipe charging rate to set ? And what parameters ( and numbers to add) schould be in current eng or wag file ? I'm questioning becouse still in short consist air is long buildung. Not like in real life.
