Analysis of Current Harmonics in 3kV DC Catenary Caused by Specific Current Harmonics of an Asynchronous Motor

Journal Title: Archives of Transport - Year 2010, Vol 22, Issue 3

Abstract

The mathematical model of vehicle supply system as well as the mathematical model of main circuit of locomotive with asynchronous motors have been described in this article. The necessity of analysis of disturbances caused by distorted current run of drive motors emerged together with the introduction of high power vehicles with power electronic converters. Analysis of the compatibility of traction high current circuits with circuits of the signal and traffic control systems requires the knowledge of current spectrum in a catenary, which has been taken by a vehicle. The author has described the algebraic method of calculating of the spectrum amplitudes in a catenary. It does not require laborious and time-consuming simulations of a system, which considerably decreases preliminary costs of designation and dimensioning of a vehicle drive system.
