SYSTEM FOR SUPPLYING ELECTRIC ENERGY TO AN ELECTRIC TRACTION RAILWAY VEHICLE

摘要

In an electric energy supply system for an electrically drawn railway carriage and fed from the medium-voltage supply of the drive locomotive, a current smoothing choke is coupled to a thyristor type inverter supplying a synchronous motor. A low-voltage alternator is driven by the motor and elements sensitive to the angular position of the rotor of the alternator control the priming of the thyristors of the inverter.
