This paper deals with the simulation of railway air brake release demand of a twin-pipe graduated release railway air brake system based on the solution of partial differential equations governing one-dimensional flow by the finite difference method supported by extrapolation/interpolation. Air brake release demand is simulated as an exponential input of pressure. The analysis incorporates the corrections needed to be used for various restrictions in the brake pipeline. Results are in good agreement with the laboratory data.
