Objective: Analysis of the operation of a bidirectional isolated converter for a direct-current traction drive of electric rolling stock under various load conditions. Methods: Mathematical modeling was applied for the research. The results are presented in the form of mathematical relationships and graphs of currents and voltages. Results: The relationship between the output voltage and the duty factor of a bidirectional isolated converter has been revealed. The converters operation is considered at six characteristic intervals of a full cycle with the following initial conditions: i(t0) < 0, i(t0) = 0, i(t0) > 0. The main dependences of the current in the inductance, the input and output voltage, the shape of the voltage and current curves for different operation modes of a bidirectional converter are given. The duty factor is determined to obtain the maximum output power of the bidirectional converter. Practical importance: The proposed bidirectional isolated converter scheme makes it possible to implement traction and regenerative braking modes for a traction drive of a DC electric rolling stock. The simulation results show that with significant changes in load the system retains the specified characteristics, provides speed

Objective: Diagnostics of malfunctions of rolling bearings of an asynchronous traction electric motor (ATEM) of locomotives using artifi cial neural networks. Methods: To control and diagnose the technical condition of the ATEM bearing units of locomotives, a hardware-software complex and data analysis methods are used. Results: We investigated the malfunctions of the ATEM rolling bearing of locomotives. The analysis of failures of locomotive bearing units is carried out. Vibration and current signals and the corresponding frequency spectra of an ATEM operating under normal conditions and with various bearing faults are considered. A model for assessing the technical condition of rolling bearings of locomotives has been developed, and the importance of anticipatory diagnostics has been substantiated, which makes it possible to identify defects in advance at the earliest stage of their development. Practical importance: The results of the research can be used in the system for diagnosing the technical condition of rolling bearings of traction electric motors of locomotives in real time.

Objective: To evaluate the infl uence of the parameters of current collectors of high-speed and very high-speed trains on the value of aerodynamic resistance. To study the effect of airfl ow on a pantograph aerodynamic device using SolidWorks software. Methods: A comparison of the obtained values of aerodynamic air resistance with those that were produced earlier is carried out. Results: By means of aerodynamic device, it is possible to reduce the speed of the air fl ow effecting the pantograph, to reduce the values of aerodynamic resistance and energy consumption, to extend the service life of current collectors. Practical importance: The proposed design can improve the current collection, which will reduce the load on the overhead line and the pantograph slide, and reduce the energy consumption of electric rolling stock.

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.

When developing a high-speed contact suspension for railways electrified with alternating current, it is important to ensure that the electric rolling stock passes the neutral insert without turning off the current and without reducing the speed of movement. The article provides an analysis of previously developed devices in the field of power supply of electrified railways of single-phase alternating current, in which an attempt was made to pass an electric rolling stock of a neutral insert without disconnecting the load. The device of isolating coupling of a catenary and a neutral insert for high-speed railway lines electrified on alternating current is described. In this case, the passage of the neutral insert is carried out under current and braking of the electric rolling stock will not occur. Among other things, to improve the efficiency of high-speed contact suspension for railways electrified with alternating current, it is proposed to use new materials and new technologies that can be used in the device of insulating coupling of the catenary

Increasing the efficiency of cargo transportation by rail is not only one of the main directions of the company JSC “Russian Railways” but also one of the main tasks of our country in order to achieve sustainable economic growth. Electric rolling stock is the largest consumer of electric energy in the company, that’s why its effective and failure-free operation is the way to solve the set tasks. The paper deals with studies related to the operation modes of a freight electric rolling stock of direct current for the purpose of determining the requirements for electric energy storage device, since it is the electric rolling stock that determines the daily schedule of electric load. The order of the analysis of experimental trips of freight electric locomotives of a direct current on the basis of cartridges of recorders of traffic parameters installed on the locomotive is determined. On the basis of the analysis of conducted trips, the main requirements for the energy storage device were obtained with a single running of electric DC rolling stock, namely the average duration of the operation modes of the electric locomotive, the maximum, minimum, and average values of voltage and current, the average value of the electric energy returned to the contact network, time of charge/discharge, and the useful energy intensity of the electric energy storage device. The studies were carried out with the support of the Russian Foundation for Basic Research for the project No 17-20-01148 ofi_m_RZD/17.
