The auscultation of the tunnels was carried out from late 2007 to early 2008. The obtained
data presented a great similarity with real-scale tests data and simulations carried out with
ThermoTun, which meant the use of Thermotun software in Spain as calculation software was
authorized by ADIF.
The following is an example of one of the graphs that were obtained by comparison between the
auscultation and the full scale tests. It belongs to instrumentation section S1 of the Castejón
tunnel at a speed of 278km/h and the S -103.
