pschlik Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 I have some doubts about the tractive effort gauge on the Pendolino. When accelerating at full power, the gauge will display the maximum 250 kN seemingly regardless of speed. 250 kN of tractive effort at 190 kph is a power output of a bit over 13 MW. That power would require around 4000 amps from the 3 kV DC line, but the screens also indicate only around 1800 amps are drawn. This leads me to believe the gauge on the screen isn't showing tractive effort, it just cannot be accurate. Maybe it's showing the % power output, so 100% power = 250 kN, 50% power = 125 kN??? That's my best guess but I don't know for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIMRAIL Team Stele Posted January 25, 2023 SIMRAIL Team Share Posted January 25, 2023 It was valid bug with wrong force values sent to display. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
