A 3 kV DC Electric Traction System Modernisation for Increased Speed and Trains Power Demand – Problems of Analysis and Synthesis
Published by Adam SZELĄG, Tadeusz MACIOŁEK, Politechnika Warszawska, Instytut Maszyn Elektrycznych Abstract. A 3 kV DC supply system, used on railways in Poland, since 1936, has power delivery capacity that allows reaching by trains a maximum speed of 250 km/h. Currently, the maximum trains service speed on Polish railway is 160 km/h, although speed recordContinue reading “A 3 kV DC Electric Traction System Modernisation for Increased Speed and Trains Power Demand – Problems of Analysis and Synthesis”
