每周一词第123期— “强冷车厢”和“弱冷车厢”
Word of the Week---“cold section” and “cool section” carriage
【背景介绍】
同一趟地铁列车有人嫌热有人怕冷,如何才能满足不同旅客对空调温度的需求?近日,北京地铁6号线尝试分设“强冷”车厢和“弱冷”车厢,乘客可根据指示标识按需乘车。炎热夏季,为了回应乘客的抱怨、满足乘客需求,北京地铁6号线推出“同车不同温”服务。
In a bid to ease complaints and accommodate passengers' needs in the hot summer months of Beijing, Subway Line 6 is now offering train services with varying temperatures.
位于地铁列车前半部分的车厢将提供强冷风空调,后半部分的车厢则提供弱冷风空调。
Those riding on the front half of the train will be hit with a strong blast of air conditioning, while those on the back half will be subject to much less intense air conditioning.
北京地铁运营一分公司相关负责人表示,目前6号线整列车厢温度高峰时设置为26℃,平峰时设置为27℃。工作人员将通过手动程序,分别对“强冷”车厢和“弱冷”车厢的空调温度进行调节(subway staff will manually adjust temperatures in carriages based on which section they are in)。
北京地铁方面表示,通过对已上线的3列车试运行情况看,“弱冷车厢”内的空调温度要比“强冷车厢”内高2℃(temperature in carriages of cool section is 2 degrees higher than that of cold section)。具体而言,“强冷车厢”的平均客室内温度约为25℃。
