W artykule opisano problemy dotyczące wydajności zasilania dla nietrakcyjnych odbiorców kolei. W przeciwieństwie do publicznych sieci rozdzielczych, nietrakcyjna sieć zasilająca znajduje się w strefie wpływu pola elektromagnetycznego i prze-wodzącego zniekształconego prądu trakcyjnego. W rezultacie, słaba jakość energii i dodatkowe straty są typowe dla nietrakcyjnych sieci kolejowych. W konsekwencji mogą wystąpić konflikty spowodowane niską jakością energii elektrycznej między koleją i jej odbiorcami zasilanymi z sieci rozdzielczych kolei. W artykule opisano wpływ urządzenia do kompensacji mocy biernej na spadek napięcia w linii nietrakcyjnej. Wdrożenie kompensacji mocy biernej umożliwia zmniejszenie strat napięcia podczas jej przesyłu do odbiorcy końcowego o prawie 5% oraz zmniejszenie strat energii elektrycznej o 3%. Słowa kluczowe: odbiorca nietrakcyjny, korektor współczynnika mocy, kompensator mocy biernej, graf sieci elektrycznej, metoda potencjałów węzłowych
This paper deals with the problems of enhancement of registration and distribution of electric energy which can be obtained from DC electric locomotives by the regenerative braking. According to theoretical researches, it is possible to return approximately 8 - 12% of electric energy which is consumed for electric traction by using of a regenerative braking mode. However in recent years for electric traction networks of JSC “Ukrainian Railways”, this index doesn’t exceed 2.6%. So we consider that the regenerative braking is one of the most prospective ways for energy saving in electric railway transport. Results of the experimental researches which were executed on DC traction substations and VL11M6 electric locomotives are described in this paper. Instantaneous values of voltage and current in different modes have been obtained. The electric energy balance for experimental zone has been performed. Also the ways of distribution and consumption of energy of regenerative braking mode have been analyzed. On this basis of the executed investigations, recommendations about providing of supercapacitor energy storage system for Ukrainian railways are proposed.
Urban electric transport system, particularly tram systems, is not a direct current system not only in traction mode but in regenerative modes as both voltage on a collector and regenerative current are stochastic abruptly variable processes. The above- mentioned facts determine availability of Fryze’s reactive power in this system that flows from a railway substation to trams, leads to incidental losses of energy and significantly reduces its quality. So evaluation of power effectiveness of the system in electrical trams operation is impossible without determining the level of reactive power in this system. We have analytical expression of reactive power by Fryze. Numerical calculations for trams type T3D and T4D in regenerative braking modes are done. Probabilistic statistical data processing operation of reactive power expressions is done. It is determined that reactive power changes in the limit of 10…100 kilo-volt ampere reactive with mathematical expectation – 37,0 kilo-volt ampere reactive. Statistical allocation of random power values are different. Numerical calculations of incidental losses, energy of recuperation are done and they range supplementary – 20% from total losses. It is stated that coefficient of reactive power of system route of trams is exceeding permissible value 0,25.
The purpose of this work is to study the utilization efficiency of electric driving energy-saving motors of non-standard technological equipment meant for repair of railway rolling stock, in terms of improvement of energy performance, i.e. improvement of efficiency factors and power factors, and decrease of power losses as compared with the most commonly used “conventional” asynchronous motors. There are two options for improvement of the energy performance of electric drives of non-standard technological equipment: replacement of a conventional motor with an energy-saving one similar in terms of nominal voltage, rotational speed, power, etc.; changeover of stator winding from “delta” to “star”. A special technique has been proposed to determine the effectiveness of this changeover in terms of improvement of energy indicators. Comparison of the real values of the energy indicators of conventional motors and energy-saving motors in the case under consideration is required to perform the technical and economic calculations when solving the problem of the expediency of replacement of conventional asynchronous motors with energy-saving motors in the abovementioned equipment.
