Abstract

This paper includes the designing of the Railway Power Pack used by the Container Corporation of India. The power packs when in motion are subjected to several forces and their failures have resulted in many casualties. The work starts with the designing of the Power Pack container, with all its major components so that weight of all the components can be applied during the analysis. The Analysis of the Power Pack is done using ANSYS Software. The two major analyses for the Power Pack are Frequency and Dynamic Analysis. Through the analysis result, the re-arranged mass distribution of the Power Pack components can be suggested and vibrations can be reduced to a certain level.
