  • A power demand simulator of electric transportation systems for distribution utilities

    Garcia, G.; Rios, M.A.; Ramos, G. Universities Power Engineering Conference (UPEC), 2009 Proceedings of the 44th International, 2009

    Electric transportation systems have been one of the solutions to enhance the massive transport of passengers in large and medium size cities in developed countries. However, in some developing countries, such as Latin American countries, the electric transportation is just now searching has a solution for this problem. As a difference to the developed electric transportation systems, the introduction of ...

  • The integration of AC drive technology to Amtrak's passenger locomotives

    Watkins, K.M. Railroad Conference, 1993., Proceedings of the 1993 IEEE/ASME Joint, 1993

    During 1983 Amtrak experienced very heavy DC traction motor use both in the diesel-electric and in the electric powered locomotive fleets. As a result, Amtrak's executives decided to obtain first hand experience with AC traction which, at that time, was being proposed as the answer to many traction motor problems. The history and operating experience with Amtrak's AC drive locomotives ...

  • AC drive technology for locomotives

    Wagner, R. Railroad Conference, 1989. Proceedings., Technical Papers Presented at the 1989 IEEE/ASME Joint, 1989

    The author describes the use of GTO (gate turn-off) thyristors and microprocessor technology in connection with three-phase AC drive engineering for locomotives. The high power ratings of these devices, combined with efficient evaporation-bath cooling methods, have reduced the size and weight of the necessary powerful onboard converter equipment; AC drives are thus continuing to gain acceptance for traction applications. Examples ...

  • Computing and simulation on the over-voltage of regenerative braking electric locomotives

    Li Na; Liu Ming-guang; Wen Xiao-yan Industrial Electronics and Applications, 2008. ICIEA 2008. 3rd IEEE Conference on, 2008

    When regenerative braking electric locomotives are working at the inversion process, there will occur high over-voltage if the failure of regenerative braking happens. It will influence the insulation and the safety of the electric locomotives. According to the magnetization curve and mathematic equation, the dynamic simulation model of SS7 electric locomotives is established. The result shows that the over-voltage has ...

  • Diesel-electric locomotives of the British Railways

    Harper, F.A. Proceedings of the IEE - Part IA: Electric Railway Traction, 1950

    The paper gives a brief history of the attempts made to utilize the Diesel engine for railway traction, and the trend towards electric transmission for larger-powered units. The entirely different considerations in the application of Diesel-electric motive power to shunting and to main-line work are treated separately. The Diesel-electric shunting locomotive must be capable of meeting a fairly definite set ...
