Asymmetric Power Supply Circuit Design for Electric Rolling Stock on the Electrified DC Rail

Abstract
ENG: Modern requirements for the traction power supply system of direct current in providing the high-speed movement are reduced to the need of ensuring a normalized voltage level of 2900 V on current collectors of electric locomotives. At the same time, the power supply system has to be stable on changes in power consumption and have the necessary specific energy intensity. The purpose of the work is to explain the transition to a new circuit design of the traction network using additional generators of electric energy. The proposed asymmetrical power supply system of the electric rolling stock allows to provide the required voltage level on the electric locomotive current collectors, to reduce the range of its changes and to reduce the power losses by 14.3% compared to the symmetrical centralized power supply circuit design with passive boosting of the traction network.
