The article focuses on monitoring of wheelset binding bands condition of electric locomotives with rotary-field traction motors and, since it is a very important factor in reliability of the electric locomotive by and large, the obtained decisions are based on its results. In analysis there were examined wheelset defects of common occurrence and their natural wear during exploitation. The electric rolling stock works under complicated conditions which affect the nature of wear and electric and mechanical equipment damage. One of the main tasks is to ensure reliable operation of different machinery, as failures on track disorder the traffic schedule, distort the transportation rhythm, leading to considerable loss of throughput capacity of sections, which also reduces movement safety and results in great economic losses. Reliability evaluation is a set of measures aimed at monitoring of condition of electric locomotives, which is based on real operational particulars. By virtue of these particulars one can see an ultimately complete picture, analyze it and correct the structure of repair cycle of electric locomotive particulars. The article accentuates the analysis of risks, related to probable defects, unexpectedly high wear out, incorrect choice of repair cycle structure, ways and tools of reliability evaluation, incorrect statutory, results of incorrect measurement.

In railway traction, the definition of “electromagnetic field” is functionally connected to the concept of the reactive power consumed by the electric rolling stock, and characterized by the running and standing electromagnetic waves in the space of the inter-substation zones from the site of the AC traction system. Such a definition is established and theoretically justified by the theory of electromagnetic fields. This article uses the methodology of this theory, in particular, a method for power balance estimation in electromagnetic fields based on Maxwell’s equations, as well as methods for the analysis of running and standing electromagnetic waves based on the theory of reflection, propagation and transmission of plane harmonic waves. The research considers the regularities of standing electromagnetic waves in the space of inter-substation zones of electric traction systems, which occur due to the incomplete reflection of incident waves from the contact wire and metal parts of the roof surface and the frontal part of the body of the electric rolling stock. The flow of electricity to the roof surface and the frontal part of the body of an electric locomotive is considered. The possibility of using existing methods to reduce wave reflections and thereby to effectively compensate for reactive power in the space of inter-substation zones is discussed.

The paper considers methods of improving technical and economic indicators of direct current electric rolling stock. The authors propose a scheme of electric drive with pulse converters that are controlled by instantaneous values of armature and exciting currents. The scheme provides the realization of regenerative and resistance braking on almost the entire speed range. The paper also presents frequency characteristics of converters at speed from 5 to 100 km/h and proposes a scheme of direct current electric locomotive with pulse regulation of voltage on three connections of traction motors. Moreover, the authors discuss a structure of autonomous voltage inverter with group switching and reduced number of fully controlled semiconductor devices and present methods to prevent wheelspin through changing their load on rails and excitement of traction motors.

Objective: To identify the influence of electromagnetic interference of various origins on the func- tioning of electronic components of control systems in electric rolling stock (ERS) and radio commu- nication devices, and the effect of electromagnetic fields (EMF) on humans. To carry out experi- mental studies of the ERS EMF characteristics taken as source data, allowing to assess the need to take appropriate actions to ensure electromagnetic safety. One of such measures is the optimal ar- rangement of electric equipment in the driver’s cabin of an electric locomotive or electric train, which will make it possible to achieve the minimum electric and magnetic field strength values under specified conditions. Methods: Direct measurement of the electromagnetic field characteristics in the driver’s cabin of a new 2ES-5 (2ЭС-5) AC electric locomotive (joint production of Transmashhol- ding JSC, Russia, and Alstom, France), as well as on a 2ES4K (2ЭС4К) DC electric locomotive (driver’s cabin, high-voltage chamber, electric locomotive roof) and an ED4M (ЭД4М) DC electric train (dri- ver’s cabin, train car). In the driver’s cabin, measurements were carried out near the working appa- ratus, near the driver’s and assistant's seats and at frequencies for which the maximum permissible levels have been set. Results: The magnetic field strengths (as having the greatest effect on the func- tioning of the electronic components of the ERS control systems and on the person) in the driver’s cabin of electric locomotives and electric trains were measured at different currents under the fol- lowing conditions: starting, traction, braking in the high-voltage chamber and on the electric locomo- tive roof. Practical importance: The given electromagnetic field characteristics do not exceed the specifications set forth in the regulatory documents of the Russian Federation. However, when trains move, there are bursts of EMF strength values due to transient processes in the power supply sys- tem: on DC ERS, the magnetic field strength in the driver’s cabin reached 100 A/m, the electric field strength — 8,5 kV/m, magnetic induction on the DC electric locomotive roof — 400 μT. These values exceed the maximum permissible levels and require the relevant actions to ensure electromagnetic safety.

The principles and criteria for classifying factors that affect the power consumption of a train with an electric locomotive are formulated. Based on the analysis of the energy balance, the interconversions of various types of energy and the energy diagrams that characterize them in different modes of train movement are considered. The analysis made it possible to identify the factors that affect the power consumption of the train in all modes of movement, and evaluate them according to various criteria. A classification of factors affecting the train power consumption is proposed, which allows us to justify the correct method of accounting for each factor, as well as to develop measures to reduce the influence of individual factors on the train energy consumption.

ter reaching the maximum voltage at the 4th control zone of the rectifier-inverter converter of an AC electric locomotive, a further increase in speed is achieved by connecting the field attenuation system (FA) of traction electric motors (TEM). All domestic electric locomotives use the FA TEM system of the inductively active type with step switching. However, it has drawbacks, one of them is that step switching causes speed losses and slows down the acceleration of electric rolling stock (ERS). By 2025, the goal is to increase the speed of freight trains, which will increase freight turnover on the railway network [1]. One solution is to improve the ERS. In this regard, it is proposed to improve the standard FA TEM system of an electric locomotive by using IGBT transistors, which allow smooth regulation of the excitation current. In the article, using the graphical method of the RM, a curve of the train speed is constructed, which proves that the smooth control of the electric locomotive FA TEM allows you to quickly reach the maximum permissible speed of the electric locomotive on the section and to move at a higher speed in the ascent than with step-by-step regulation. The simulation of the 3ES5K series electric locomotive in the «Cortes» software complex on the Winter - Irkutsk-Sortirovochny section was also carried out, which proved that with the smooth regulation of the FA TEM, the technical speed of the ERS increases by at least 2,5 km/h.

Regenerative braking is one of the most important energy-saving resources on electric rolling stock (EPS) of railways and feasibility of its use is confirmed by a rich half-century history. The development of the recovery mode begins with the release of the experimental AC electric locomotive of the VL61 series № 012 and continues with the release of the modern series of electric locomotives 2 (3, 4) ES5K and EP1v/i. The use of recuperation allows you to achieve significant energy savings, to ensure the safety of driving heavy trains on the track profile with long descents. In the regenerative braking mode, the EPS has rigid braking characteristics, ensuring maintenance of constant train speed, increasing the technical speed of the train and capacity of the railway section. This article presents the results of mathematical modeling of operation of an AC electric locomotive in the regenerative braking mode using a standard rectifier-inverter converter (RIC) and presence of ballast resistor blocks (BRB) in the power circuit, and using a promising RIC based on IGBT transistors, for which a method for implementing regenerative braking on AC electric locomotives without the use of BRB in the anchor circuit of traction electric motors is developed, with the help of which it is possible to increase the amount of electricity given to the contact network, as well as to expand the area of braking characteristics of the electric locomotive.

Effective use of fuel and energy resources is one of the main tasks in modern industry and transport. The main directions of increasing the energy efficiency of the electric rolling stock of railways are considered in the paper. For the electric rolling stock of railways, a significant proportion of electric power consumption falls on traction needs. The consumption of electrical energy and its recovery directly depends on the proper operation and fine-tuning of the magnetic system and switching of traction electric motors of the rolling stock. The methods of testing traction electric motors currently used in railway transport do not fully correspond to their operating modes during operation. For more reliable control of their condition, a methodology for estimating the nature of the operation of traction electric motors in conditions close to real ones was proposed. Studies of the influence of transient processes on the quality of switching of traction electric motors taking into account operating conditions are carried out. Based on the results of the study, the analysis of the data obtained is carried out, and a criterion for estimating the switching stability of traction electric motors in transient operation modes is proposed. The proposed criterion allows carrying out quality control of the tuning of the magnetic system and switching of the traction electric motor, and also estimating the nature of its operation in various modes, taking into account the operating conditions.
