Trainbrake-Problem with Acela HHP-8
#21
Posted 24 August 2017 - 12:46 AM
- with x.3930 the bug in the calculation of the MSTS-like dynamic brake force table has been corrected, and parameter DynamicBrakesEffectAtMaximumFadeOut is taken into consideration
- with x.3931, only if the option "Correct questionable .eng parameters" is checked, parameter DynamicBrakesDelayTimeBeforeEngaging is set to 2 seconds if the locomotive is electric and such parameter was > 4; again only if such option is checked, parameter DynamicBrakesMaximumForce is set to 0.5 of MaxContinuousForce if it had a too low value in comparison to MaxContinuousForce (as the one of the HHP8). In fact very often such value is set to 20000, because it is the suggested value in the original MSTS Eng_and_wag_file_reference_guidev2.doc document, and such value is too low for the majority of locomotives.
Further interventions are foreseen.

Comparison of traction force versus dynamic force is in my post 17 c) at the bottom of the page http://109-e.wgz.cz/...-tech-parametry

Salü Carlo,
I have tested it works. I have tested with and without Brake-Option, no differences, correct?
one speed area is suprizing:
I start up to 50MPS, pull the brake to 30%, then the dynamic brake will be activated until the speed is down to 15MPS, then it switch back to the Trainbrake, and that with this low force dynamicbrake of the Original-Eng-File ?
DynamicBrakesMaximumForce( 20000 ), the same if I reduce this to 10000 kN edith: and to 100 kN
can you see any reason?
regards

in my patch the check whether to use the dynamic brake or not in case of autobailoff is not based on an absolute value of the dynamic brake force, but, as said in my previous post, on the comparison of the dynamic brake force at that speed with DynamicBrakesMaximumForce * 0.6. So reducing DynamicBrakesMaximumForce does not change the comparison, because also the dynamic brake force at that speed is reduced proportionally.
The check is done so because it is intended that DynamicBrakesMaximumForce has a reasonable value. If it doesn't, the "Correct questionable .eng parameters" has to be used.
In case of the HHP8, if you don't check "Correct questionable .eng parameters" you have two effects: DynamicBrakesDelayTimeBeforeEngaging will stay at 10 seconds and the dynamic brake will have less effect, because DynamicBrakesMaximumForce will stay at 20000.

Sigle pipe, when dynamic brake stops working, brake cylinder is not filled up air. If he applies brakes again from, the pressure in the brake cylinder doesn't increase anymore. It stays on 0 bar. This doesn´t work corretly in OR. Because the pressure in the brake cylinder grows up and then goes down. Time 0:55s.
I've checked this, and in fact it should be corrected.

Seen, but I use the following conditions:
X3931+Patch
unchecked questionable Brakeparameters
DynamicBrakesMaximumForce( 100 ) !!
Start to 50MPH
Train Brake 30%
After 10s switch to dynamic Brake, but with reasonable brake force good so but why, has you that planed???

the logic is: OR uses in good faith the parameters present in the .eng files. If they are garbage, they should be corrected or the "Correct questionable braking parameters" should be checked. This is so also with the other braking parameters that are handled by the "Correct questionable braking parameters" option.

Carlo,
Then the above is also OK.
Now this new Parameter OrtsDynamicBlendingForceMatch( 1 )
for me it works perfect. In the F5 Force Information the TOTAL is showing the same Valor if set to 1 independent of the working braketype, until the Engine has stopped.
Yes I think also this parameter should be default = 1
In modern Trams the driver set for a Stationstop the Wheel on Brakeposition 2 and the car is bracking with the same force until stop independent of the used Braketyp. this I have also seen some days before with older releases.
And a new detection:
If the Engine has more than 65 MPH and I set the Brake to 30% the dynamic brake will never be activate until the engine has stopped??
This I have also seen some days before with an older release.

With a single-pipe locomotive instead, when starting braking the auxiliary reservoir reduces its pressure together with the brakepipe pressure; this is not a problem until the speed is down at 30 km/h. At that pont the triple valve isn't able to go to Apply, because brake pipe pressure is not lower than the auxiliary reservoir pressure, and so the brake cylinder doesn't increase again its pressure, and the locomotive decelerates very slowly down to 0 km/h.
So my question is: how should the above single-pipe loco brake parameters behave in this process, so that the air brake intervenes again increasing pressure in the BC when the dynamic brake force fades out?
