gously in regard to stability and design.

Turntable

A track-switching device by which a stationary vehi-

cle can be switched to different tracks by swivel-

ling/rotating the guideway superstructure.

Undulation of the geoid

Separation between the geoid and the ellipsoid.

Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS)

Equipment for generating a supply voltage without

interruptions in the event of a mains power failure.

Usability

"Usability is the extent to which a product can be

used by specified users to achieve specified goals

with effectiveness, efficiency and satisfaction in a

specified context of use. The context of use consists

of the users, tasks, equipment (hardware, software

and materials) and the physical and societal environ-

ments in which the product is used." (EN ISO 9241,

Part 11)

Useful life

Guide value for the period of time in which a subsys-

tem can be used. The useful life is used as a basis for

the maintenance strategy and when planning spare

parts supplies. Parts/modules with a life shorter than

the useful life are replaced as part of in-operation

maintenance.

Vegetation control

Totality of all measures for keeping the defined

clearance gauge of the MSB system clear of vegeta-

tion including preventive measures against falling

trees.

Vehicle

MSB vehicles and special vehicles (see also the defi-

nitions of MSB vehicle and special vehicle).

Vehicle exterior

Term used for the various EMC and lightning protec-

tion areas provided on the outside of the vehicle.

Vehicle gauge

Contour line based on the cross-section to be investi-

gated, that may not be crossed by any part of the ve-

hicle (vehicle contour).

rived from the maximum effects used in the vehicle

design due to non-frequent or exceptional design

situations.

Vehicle tare weight

Weight of the vehicle including equipment (e.g. seat-

ing) excluding payload.

Vertical jolt

Differential change in normal acceleration (a_z) per

unit of time.

Walkway

An at-grade walkway running alongside the guide-

way that is provided for the rescue and evacuation of

passengers at special evacuation stopping places.

Warping

Change in transverse inclination per unit of length,

dimension [°/m].

Winter service

Totality of all technical and non-technical measures

taken to maintain the defined environmental condi-

tions for MSB operation in winter conditions. In-

cludes the planning, organisation and implementation

of the measures for the guideway and MSB system

parts, as well as general winter service measures

around the traffic installations, operating installations

and route infrastructure.

Work instructions

Work instructions comprise the maintenance instruc-

tions and supplement them with particular local

and/or project-specific characteristics. These special

characteristics may relate to the use of special tools,

carrying out work within the scope of the local infra-

structure, or information about the work sequence.

The additional requirements which these special

characteristics involve for occupational safety and

environmental protection are contained here. Work

instructions are project and site dependent.

Yaw

Rotational motion of the car body or levitation chas-

sis about the z-axis

General

Purpose of the document, scope

This document specifies the environmental conditions of the MSB system independently of

any particular project.

This design principles applies to a high-speed maglev system according to the General

Maglev System Act /AMbG/.

The parameters of the primary environment specified in this document should be used as a

basis for the design of the MSB system in an application project.

To guarantee the required degree of resistance to environmental conditions, the said condi-

tions should be used as a basis for the system development, qualification and verification of

subsystems and modules for the particular application project.

Parameters that differ in specific projects must be taken into consideration in the design and

the necessary verifications carried out.

The monitoring of the primary environmental parameters specified in this document, and the

taking of the appropriate measures if the limits indicated here are exceeded, is not a matter for

this document and will be dealt with in the corresponding project-specific documents.

The environmental conditions for operation, storage and transport according to /EN 60721/

are defined in Chapter 5.

The environmental conditions prevailing inside buildings or other weather-protected installa-

tions are not a matter for this document.

Conditions that are a function of a specific project-dependent route alignment, e.g. local geol-

ogy/hydrology, are not covered by this document.

Rain volume - general

Rain volume - Limit for radio design

project-specific *)

*) The propagation properties of radio links, especially at higher frequencies, depend on precipitation, among other factors.

Precipitation leads to higher path attenuation, so appropriate signal level reserves (headroom) must be allowed for when

designing the links. Rain has the greatest effect on path attenuation and so is used when calculating the signal level reserve.

The path attenuation due to rain is due chiefly to the rainfall rate measured in mm/h, besides other factors such as the distri-

bution of the raindrop size.

For the purpose of designing radio links therefore, the upper limit for rain intensity is not defined according to a climatic

class but from an analysis of rainfall statistics from the local weather service. As well as the rainfall rate, the probability of

occurrence of the upper limit must also be determined for the project zone. A guideline figure here is that the defined upper

limit for the rainfall rate is not exceeded with a time probability of >99.99 % p.a.

This is not a limit in the strict sense of leading to a system malfunction if exceeded, rather that beyond this recommended

value the system's reserves are generally reduced in terms of radio range in individual sections of the line that are affected.

This would not normally impact on train operations.

The local building regulations must be complied with in regard to earthquake safety when

designing structures for a specific project. For projects in Germany, and depending on the

specific project, the relevant earthquake strengths according to

/DIN 4149/, "Structures in German earthquake zones" must be determined and used as a basis

for structure design.

Immunity from electromagnetic interference

The immunity of MSB subsystems from interference must basically conform to European

standard DIN EN 50121 (Electromagnetic Compatibility; Railway Applications). The in-

tended performance characteristics of the MSB system must not be impaired by interference-

field strengths or conducted interference up to the limits given below.

Specification of parameters for the secondary environment

This chapter lists the parameters for the secondary environment for the subsystems 'MSB ve-

hicle' and 'Installations'. It specifies the environmental spaces and

EMC/ lightning protection zones according to /DIN EN 62305-1/ (VDE 0185-305-1).

The following figures are based on operational experience with the secondary environment.

They reflect the current level of knowledge and should be confirmed project-specifically

and/or adjusted and verified as required. Adjusted values must be indicated in the project-

specific documentation (delivery specification, technical reports). The values in this document

apply in the absence of an explicit agreement.

The operational experience reflected in this document is based on MSB vehicles TR07 and

TR08 on the TVE and on the Shanghai Transrapid project.

The parameters for the EMC / lightning protection zones must allow for the radiation-related

electromagnetic effects due to lightning strike and to all types of field-related interference

effects, e.g. radio transmitters.

Secondary environment in MSB vehicle

The following requirements apply to all components and mount-on parts in and on the MSB

vehicle.

The environmental spaces of the MSB vehicle are shown in Figure 36 .

The actions due to vibration and shock are given in /MSB AG-FZ BEM/.

ESD Protection

The secondary environment in the vehicle can be electrostatically charged during noncontact

levitation relative to the stationary installations. From the safety aspect, the secondary envi-

ronment in the vehicle must be electrostatically discharged in such a way that the energy re-

maining after the discharge according to Section 17, Paragraph MbBO is less than 350 mJ.

EMC / Lightning protection

Definition of EMC / lightning protection zones

The EMC / lightning protection zones must be separated by electromagnetic shields.

Lines with cross the zone boundaries must be provided with protective circuits.

Four EMC / lightning protection zones are defined for the vehicle, and are characterised by

the following threats (see Figure 39) :

Zone 0_A

•

Direct lightning strike possible.

•

Main and partial stroke current paths are inside the zone

•

Unattenuated field effect

Zone 0_B

•

No direct lightning strike possible

•

No main and partial stroke current paths

•

Virtually unattenuated field effect

Direct lightning strike - Threat levels for EMC / lightning protection zone 0_A

At least two lightning flashover points per lightning impulse current, i.e. at least two lightning

current paths, must be expected in the event of a lightning strike into the vehicle.

The design of the lightning current-carrying equipotential bonding conductors, the shielding

and the electronic components is based on two partial stroke impulse currents with identical

lightning parameters.

This results in the following reduction factors compared with the lightning parameters given

in Chapter 0:

•

Lightning current peak value:

•

Lightning impulse charge:

•

Specific lightning energy:

For sustained current, the parameters are taken from Chapter 0.

A minimum distance of 0.1 m between the sink and the lightning current paths is assumed

when determining the limits of the lightning threat.

The minimum distance must be guaranteed by design engineering. With greater distances, the

threat values decrease proportional to the distance.

The maximum magnetic field threat values H or dH/dt are given according to /DIN EN

62305-4/ by the distance and the maximum lightning current values I or dI/dt.

H and I are derived from the first stroke, dH/dt and dI/dt from the subsequent strokes.

In the event of lightning strike according to / DIN EN 62305-4/ the electrical field E or dE/dt

is largely independent of distance at ranges of up to approx. 100 m from the strike point.
