Popis: Intensive environment pollution takes place during coal transportation in open wagons. Emission of coal dust from the coal wagons cause contamination of atmosphere and territory adjacent to the railway track. Different ways to reduce coal dust emission from the wagon are used in the world. Unfortunately, in Ukraine, this problem is far from solution and there is no serious research work in this field. The aim of this work was laboratory study of coal dust emission from the wagon model which had different barriers installed on the wagon. Laboratory experiments were carried for coal wagon without barrier and for coal wagon which had barriers of two types. Barrier of the first type had downwind wing. Barrier of the second type had upwind wing. The contamination zones, concentration near the model were studied. The obtained results illustrate that installation of barriers influence intensity of transport corridor contamination. Also a numerical model was developed to estimate wind flow and coal dust dispersion from the coal wagon. Equation of potential flow and equation of coal dust dispersion were used. Implicit difference schemes of splitting were used for numerical simulation of governing equations. Results of numerical experiment, which were performed, are presented.
