Improving the temperature resistance of traction electric motors using a microprocessor control system for modern locomotives

Abstract

Temperature control of traction electric motors running on direct current with the help of a modern microprocessor-based locomotive control system is analyzed in the paper. Development of a methodology for calculating the temperature of the windings of traction electric motors operating on direct current, based on a modern control system has been discussed. To determine the dependence of the temperature of traction motors on the motion profile and weight of the rolling stock.
