Power Quality Conditioners for Railway Traction - a Review
نویسندگان
چکیده
Railway traction is a more stochastic heavy load connected system. Due to the usage of ac-dc converters and ac-ac converters, the various power quality issues become the major problems in the electric system. This paper presents a review on power quality conditioners suitable for Railway traction based on the configuration, components involved and on the technical and economic considerations. More than 120 publications are listed in the reference for quick review.

Power Quality Improvement in Traction Power Supply Networks
AC railway traction loads are usually huge single phase loads. As a result, a significant amount of Negative Sequence Current (NSC) is injected into utility grid. Moreover, harmonics and consumption ofreactive power are further power quality problems that the supply network is encountering. In this paper, acompensation strategy with the aid of Railway Power Conditioner (RPC) is proposed to over...

with increase in traffic and speed railway became one of the major load on supply grid .AC-DC convertor used in locomotive of traction system draws rich harmonics content current results in poor power quality and failure or missed operation of utility causing derating of grid and affect the reliability. This paper provide framework for issue like harmonics, voltage sage ,voltage unbalance, poor...
متن کاملA Direct Power Feeding System for AC Railway Networks Using Modular Multilevel Converter
Abstract Traditional railway power supply systems impose substantial power quality problems (PQ) on the utility network, such as unbalance, harmonics and a large amount of reactive power. This paper proposes a topology based on three-phase to single-phase modular multilevel converters (MMC) to obviate these problems. The MMC based traction substations (TSS) are connected directly to the utili...
