Underground high-speed railway station is becoming more and more popular in recent years, due to its advantage in relieving the tense situation of urban construction land. HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) system of underground railway station consumes large energy, therefore it is necessary to find a way to decrease the energy consumption in stations. Reasonable ventilation and air organization are the basis of energy-saving design of environment control system in stations. The energy consumption could be reduced greatly by utilizing the piston wind properly. In the present work, airflow characteristics in the station are investigated when high-speed train is passing through the underground railway station with CCM+ software. Results show that piston wind has different effects on airflow in the platform when the high-speed train is running. However, the air velocity in the platform is always lower than 5 m/s. In order to analyse the effect of piston wind on the airflow in the platform in more detail, the velocities and temperatures at waiting line are extracted. The air velocity near two ends of platform is larger and the similar results could also be observed for temperatures.

High Speed Railway

In recent years, the energy performance of public buildings has attracted substantial attention due to the significant energy-saving potential. As a semi-open high-space building, the high-speed railway station is obviously different from other public buildings and even traditional stations in terms of energy consumption and internal environment. This paper investigates the current energy consumption situation and environmental quality of 15 high-speed railway passenger stations in China. Results show that the energy consumption of the high-speed railway station is between 117–470 kWh/(m2·a). The energy consumption of the station is related to the area and the passenger flow. The energy use of the station using district heating is higher than that of the station without district heating in the same region. The higher glazing ratio induces good natural lighting in the station, but the uniformity of the lighting in the station is not good. The acceptable temperature range of passengers in winter is larger than that in summer. The average air change rate of the high-speed railway station is 3.2 h−1 in winter and 1.8 h−1 in summer, which is the main reason of high energy consumption of the HVAC (Heating Ventilation Air Conditioning) system in this kind of building.

Focusing on the Zhengzhou East Railway Station, which is the larges railway staton in China at present and has the characteristics of bridge-station combined structure. The vibration responses of waiting room floor and business floor caused by high speed train loads are measured and calculated. Then the vibration comfort was evaluated by the code of ATC (1999). The calculation and analysis results showed that: (1) the vibration of waiting floor and business floor under crowd get up loading is small, which can satisfy the comfort demand; (2) the vibration of waiting floor and business floor under high speed train load is bigger because the waiting floor and business floor is more flexible; (3) the vibration comfort under high speed train load can satisfy the demand of relevant code.

<p>The main entrance of Chongqing West Railway Station adopts the non-landing compound arch with a span of 108m. In this paper, the nonlinear finite element theory is applied to analyze the bearing capacity and seismic ductility of the compound arch joints. Low frequency cyclic loading tests are performed on the 1/5 scale model. Based on the calculation and test results, a double beam structure and a section of steel truss are placed in the arch joints to bear the force of the arch. Moreover, the buckling-restrained brace (BRB) is placed in the lower part of the arch that enables most force directly transmit to the foundation of the arch. Unlike BRB’s common use as an inter-column support, it now acts as a buckling constraint support in the large earthquake. For instance, it can be yielded before the frame column to improve earthquake resistance. The research results indicate that the compound arch joint structure successfully accomplishes the seismic design goals of strong joints with weak component. Moreover, the study provides the theoretical basis and design reference for the application of BRB and long-span arch structures in high-speed railway station.</p>
