Abstract Pantograph is a critical component of the high-speed train. It collects power
through contact with catenary, which significantly affects the running safety of the train.
Pantograph with double collector strips is one common type. The aerodynamic
performance of the collector strips may affect the current collection of the pantograph. In
this study, the aerodynamic performance of the pantograph with double strips is
investigated. The numerical results are consistent with the experimental ones. The error
in the aerodynamic drag force of the pantograph between numerical and experimental
results is less than 5%. Three different conditions of the strips are studied, including… More >
