The article deals with improvement off the efficiency of external and traction power supply systems using for example indicators of traction substations for a real electric transmission line segment of a traction network of 25 kV. The analysis of the functioning of a real section of electrified railways with traction substations, two of which are connected according to the "feeding" scheme is providing in the article. The currents in the wind-ings of traction transformers are calculate for these substations. The proportion of the currents values of the most loaded winding to the two less loaded is 2: 1. The coefficient asymmetry of currents of transformer wind-ings operating on existing traction substations is equal to 1. The results prove a significant currents asymmetry of transformers windings and phases of electric transmission lines which leads to an increasing voltage unbal-ance. New schemes for connecting traction substations for the considered section of electrified railways have been developed in order to improve the quality indicators of electrical energy. New connection schemes for three traction substations, determined according to the requirements for connecting to the external and trac-tion power supply system are presents in the article. The calculation for new schemes of connecting traction substations, similar to the previously considered option, has been performed. The values of winding currents, power transmission line phases and coefficient asymmetry were obtained for new substation connection schemes. The proposed schemes for connecting traction substations provide a decrease in the coefficient asym-metry of the winding currents from 1 to 0.5 and a decrease in the current modulus in the most loaded windings by 1.5 times. New schemes for connecting traction substations reduce the currents of the most loaded windings and phases of the power transmission line, as well as the asymmetry of currents, which ensures an improvement in the efficiency of the external and traction power supply systems of the real traction network.

Purpose. To develop the method for increasing the efficiency of the equipment’s maintenance and repair system, ensuring necessary level of operational reliability of the equipment, safety and reliability of the electric equipment with minimal expenses on operation. Relevance. Aging of the power equipment in railway power supply systems sharply raised a need for assessment of its states and degree of risk for operation outside rated service life. In critical conditions of technological processes and operational modes of the railways it is necessary to increase the equipment’s operational reliability. The scheduled maintenance and repair system whose main technical and economic criterion is the minimum of equipment’s downtimes on the basis of a rigid regulation of repair cycles, in the conditions of market regulations in the field of repair in many cases does not provide the optimal decisions due to insufficient financing. The solution of this problem is possible by improvement of the maintenance and repair system. Under these conditions the main direction for supporting the operational reliability of power electric equipment on TS is a development of the modern methods based on individual supervision over real changes of technical condition of power equipment. Scientific novelty. In this article the authors proposed an integrated approach, on the basis of which can be developed the effective maintenance and repair system for traction power supply systems. Proposed approach allowed to react quickly to changes of service conditions on traction substations, to control the technical condition of power electric equipment under the conditions of uncertainty, to establish interrelation between quality of service and operational reliability of the equipment, to choose a service strategy on traction substations. Practical importance. The validity of the developed method was confirmed by the results of calculations and practically by choosing the optimal maintenance's option for transformer TDTN-25000/150-70 U1 (ТДТН-25000/150-70 У1) on traction power supply substation.

In the past few years, there has been a trend towards an increase in the volume of transportation by railway. At the same time, the load on the railway infrastructure increases, in particular, on the traction power supply system. It is necessary to solve the problem of increasing the energy efficiency of the external electric power supply system in the conditions of growing freight turnover and taking into account the uncertainty of the initial data. The paper considers one of the methods of strengthening the traction power supply system. Based on the results of the study, an algorithm was developed for selecting the installation sites and power of compensating devices in a traction network in the conditions of increasing freight turnover and under the condition of increasing the energy efficiency of the external power supply system of traction substations due to unloading of supply lines by reactive power and leveling the load in phases. This methodology includes predicting power consumption, determining the installation sites and power of compensating devices in the traction network under condition of uncertainty of the initial data, and then assessing the energy efficiency of the decision made. A calculation was carried out for the proposed algorithm for a section of the Far Eastern Railway which includes nine traction substations.

Purpose of the work is improved approaches to ensure the required quality parameters of voltage in the traction network based on modern technologies and equipment in the application of power distribution system. Actuality. The introduction of high-speed traffic, increase weight standards Train necessitates increasing the carrying capacity of railways. Often the carrying capacity of existing sections electrified at 3.0 kV DC power supply unit limits. Such limitations include voltage decrease on the electric current collector below the allowable value for the normal operation of 2700 (2900 for high-speed V) and heating the contact wires, thereby losing their mechanical strength. Existing power supply system of RS, which have considerable installed traction substations, can not provide the required level of power density traction network for high-speed movement within 1.5 - 2 MW / km and, respectively, the required voltage quality. At the same time, the daily loading of a powerful traction substations in providing intensive schedule of trains does not exceed 20-25%, while the energy loss in traction network peak load increases and reaches 10-15% of the energy consumed. Thus, the existing system of power traction networks is not sufficiently effective and economical, even with the application of existing methods to strengthen them. In our view, the main limiting factor for a given quality of voltage in the traction network is the use of centralized power. From this, the development of measures to improve the quality of voltage in the traction network in the implementation of high-speed traffic in a growing scarcity of energy resources is an urgent task. Scientific novelty. Using distributed power supply system with adjustable supply points combined into intelligent power supply, which enables adaptive change the characteristics of the transfer, conversion and consumption and optimize the mode of functioning of the traction power supply is suggested for improving the quality of voltage in the traction network in the implementation of high-speed and heavy traffic. Practical significance. Improving the quality of voltage in the traction network by using the proposed circuit design traction power supply will ensure the desired mode voltage and power characteristics of the traction network in the implementation of high-speed and heavy traffic while reducing electricity losses by 20-30%.

The results of computer studies of the modes of traction power supply systems when passing trains weighing 12,000 tons are presented. The parameters are compared with the situation when trains are moving weighing 3,000 tons. It is shown that increasing the mass of trains with the same traffic volume leads to an increase in currents in the traction network, a decrease in voltage at the current collectors, the growth of asymmetry and harmonic distortion in the external power supply system

The possibility of reducing the intensity of magnetic field created by a traction network of an alternating current electrified railroad is considered in the article. The electric field of such a traction network at a height of 1,8 m above is relatively small. In order to control the electromagnetic situation, 2x25 kV traction systems, sucking transformers with a return wire for the 25 kV system, amplifying and shielding wires of the traction network, passive screens on passenger platforms, optimization of train traffic schedules can be used. Fazonord software package developed at the Irkutsk State Transport University was used as a tool for the analysis of the above events. Using computer simulations, it was shown that the most effective methods for reducing the magnetic field strength are the use of screens on passenger platforms, optimal train schedules, and the use of “soft” train driving modes. The latter measure is able to reduce the peak magnetic field strength by about 25%.

Steel pipelines for transporting oil and gas can run along the routes of AC main railways. As a result of the electromagnetic influence of traction networks on pipes having insulating coatings, voltages can be induced that are hazardous to personnel who operate the pipeline. The report addressed the issues of modeling the electromagnetic effects of a promising traction network of 94 kV on a steel pipeline with a diameter of 250 mm laid on the surface of the earth. Computer simulation showed that at a distance of 100 meters from the railway line to the pipeline, the maximum induced voltage reaches 100 V, which is more than one and a half times the permissible value. This factor must be taken into account when designing prospective traction power supply systems in the areas of their convergence with main pipelines

Abstract The aim of the study is to review the sources covering the problems of accumulating electricity on the railways and to find new solutions to reduce the use of electricity in traction power supply system. The article analyses some existing types of electric energy storage devices (capacitive, inertial, superconducting inductive, electrochemical, fuel cells and pumped storage power plants), their common installation locations, advantages, and disadvantages. The possibility of using them in railway traction power supply systems, in particular in mobile traction substations, is also assessed. In addition, the article lists the parameters on the basis of which the optimum type of storage device can be selected for the given conditions. The study concludes that the use of some types of energy storage devices in mobile traction substations is acceptable when regenerative braking can be used at the site, and this method of energy saving can be recommended in the engineering of new or reconstruction of existing traction substations. It has been found that capacitive and inertial (flywheel) electrical energy storage units are the most suitable in terms of parameters for installation of traction power supply systems.
