ADHESION BEHAVIOR OF THYRISTOR LOCOMOTIVES DEVELOPMENTS AT THE SERIES 1043 OF AUSTRIAN FEDERAL RAILROADS (OBB) -- 1, 2

DAS ADHAESIONSVERHALTEN VON THYRISTORLOKOMOTIVEN ENTWICKLUNGEN BEI REIHE 1043 DER OBB--1,2

Due to the increase of tractive force of modern electric locomotives greater importance has to be attributed to adhesion problems. This problem is considered using the example of various motor characteristics. The use of thyristor locomotives in Austria has made it possible to haul 20% higher train loads on steep gradients. Measures using friction up to the limit as the "Pressductor-System" are explained. The interference of telecommunication and signaling installations is discussed.
