Research on the Application of Self-limiting Electric Heating Seats in Railway Vehicles
Wenzhou's Line S2 urban EMUs adopt stainless steel seats with electric heating device,which meets the passenger's comfort requirements of coolness in summer and warmth in winter.The article analyzes the basis for setting the surface temperature of the seat,and carries out the safety design.Finally,the temperature rise test was carried out on seats with different power configurations.The results show that the power configuration of 26 W/m self-limiting electric heating tape,after the seat reaches the thermal balance,makes the passengers feel moderate when they sit down,and there will not be any obvious heating sensation when they continue to sit for a long time.This shows that Wenzhou's Line S2 urban EMU seat heating scheme and temperature setting is both safe and reasonable,and also to meet the requirements of ride comfort.
