Abstract
ENG: The paper is dedicated to the estimation of instantaneous reactive power in a DC traction power system. Currently, the integral and frequency methods are mostly used to define reactive power and do not give high accuracy in the calculations of power balance or cannot describe the essence of physical processes.The problem is complicated in DC electric transport systems due to random impulse character of voltages and currents. As a comparison, the calculation of reactive power according to various approaches was performed for the DE1 electric locomotive. It is suggested that the instantaneous reactive power should be used for the analysis of electromagnetic exchange processes in DC power systems. The paper shows the definition and main formulas for defining the instantaneous reactive power taking into consideration the random character of voltage and current. Numerical calculations together with statistical analysis were performed for two variants of experimentally recorded voltages and currents: the first one – on the bus-bar of traction substation, which supplies the section with the Pendolino trains in Poland and the second one – on the current collector of the VL8 electric locomotive in Ukraine. They confirm the validity of the aforementioned method.
