PROJECT STUDY FOR A STANDARD GAUGE RAILROAD LOCOMOTIVE WITH LOAD INDEPENDENT DC CURRENT INTERMEDIATE CIRCUIT

PROJEKTSTUDIE FUER EINE VOLLBAHNLOKOMOTIVE MIT STROMGEFUEHRTEM DREHSTROM-ANTRIEBSSYSTEM

Based on experience of its own three-phase current test unit AEG-Telefunken has worked out a design for a locomotive with three-phase current drive technology. With four wheel sets and a nominal output of about 5 mw it is suitable for universal utilization in passenger and freight trains and can be designed either for the 15 kv/16 2/3 Hz or the 25 kv/50 Hz current system. After system tests with 16 2/3 Hz the traction characteristics of the applied current source converter system can be considered as satisfactory.
