Abstract
The invention relates to an energy-efficient method for voltage stabilization at the electric rolling stock current collector through traction substation control means which provide a nominal voltage value during the electric train movement by an interstation section. The dependence of potential distribution in the contact wire during the electric rolling stock movement by an interstation section was investigated. Also researched and developed are the new ways of voltage stabilization at the current collector of the electric rolling stock based on synchronous (the same for two adjacent traction substations) and asynchronous paths of voltage regulation at DC buses of traction substations related to one synchronous and two asynchronous ways of voltage stabilization in the contact network with obtaining the energy performance describing them. The energy performance of the investigated methods of voltage stabilization in the contact network is compared, and the energy efficiency of each of them is determined. It is proved that the use of modern types of semiconductor converters such as an active rectifier – voltage source in the power equipment of DC traction substations will enable to implement adaptive voltage stabilization systems at the rolling stock current collector, providing nominal voltage values of traction motors on the interstation section without using additional equipment on the rolling stock and, as a consequence, justification and application of these methods is suitable for upgrading the existing and designing new traction substations.
