During train travel, various factors, such as body vibration, uneven contact lines, and hard spots on carbon sliding plates and over electric neutral zones, often lead to brief separation between the pantograph and the contact line, i.e., the pantograph ...

Influence of Embankments with Parapets on the Cross-Wind Turbulence Intensity at the Contact Wire of Railway Overheads [PDF]
Winds as an environmental factor can cause significant difficulties for the railway system operation. The railway overhead has been particularly vulnerable to cross-winds related problems, such as development of undamped oscillations due to galloping ...

ABSTRACT As the ‘main blood vessel’ of the traction power supply system for high‐speed trains, the ‘wheel‐rail’ coupling grounding reflux system provides the vital channel to send traction current back to terrestrial substations; meanwhile, the rail track also plays a role in transmitting the train's occupancy signal to the control system. An insulated

DEVELOPMENT OF HIGH-REACH PANTOGRAPHS FOR HIGH-SPEED RAILWAYS [PDF]
The pantograph’s purpose is to transfer electrical power from the overhead contact line to the train’s electric propulsion unit. To perform its function adequately, it is necessary to maintain the static contact force between the pantograph and the contact line within the values prescribed by appropriate standards for the entire extension range of the ...

This study proposes an NSGA‐II framework enhanced with struct‐based encoding for bi‐objective optimization of heavy‐haul railway vertical alignment (construction cost and energy consumption), which requires no preset vertical points of intersection (VPIs) and inherently meets most constraints.

Visualization of Dipole Noise Source around High Speed Pantograph
パンタグラフの舟体は新幹線の主要な空力音源の1つであり,その低騒音化が強く要求されている.ただし,高速域でパンタグラフが良好な集電性能を維持するためには舟体の揚力特性を適正に保つ必要があるため,空力音低減は容易ではない.そこで著者らは,舟体の空力音発生メカニズムを明示することによって低騒音化設計を支援することを目指し,流れ場のCFD解析とHoweの渦音理論に基づく音響解析手法を組合せた手法を用いて,舟体から発生する空力音の遠方場における評価と舟体まわりの二重極音源分布の可視化を行った.また,検証のための風洞実験も実施した.これらの結果,二重極音の評価結果が実験結果と定性的に一致することを示した.また,二重極音源分布の可視化結果から ...

This article presents an active power filtering control method to suppress ripple power in the DC‐link of railway traction systems, including both the inherent second‐order ripple of single‐phase rectifiers and additional frequency ripples introduced by the pantograph–catenary arc.
