Thermal Simulation of Traction System for High-Speed Train Based on Heat Accumulation

Design of traction system is important to decide the dynamic configuration of high speed EMU. And one of the most important factors that determine the design of traction system is the thermal distribution of IGBT convertors. Thermal simulation of IGBT converter using a two-step methodology (temperature rise and thermal distribution) and its simulation results are presented in this paper [1]. Th...

Intelligent-speed-increasing Spindle Using Traction Drive

INTRODUCTION Recently, a milling for die using a small end mill of diameter less than 1 mm is increased, because sizes of plastic mold parts such as connectors for an IT and an electronics becomes micro extremely. In general, a tool life is long and a good cut surface is obtained as a cutting speed is high. A speed-increasing spindle, which is attached to a shank may be used to increase the cut...

Dynamics and Control of a High Speed Train Pantograph System

High speed trains permit faster travelling between long distance destinations, making it an easy and comfortable way of travelling. The pantograph is the element of the train that collects electrical current from the cable system above (the catenary), to the train motors. The contact force variation can cause contact losses, electric arc formations and sparking. This deteriorates the quality of...
