Subject of the paper is a particular configuration of overhead line, in which noise barrier structure is used as supports of the catenary instead of standard poles. This configuration is foreseen in case the noise barrier position is in conflict with the poles location. If the catenary is supported by the noise barrier, the motion that the latter undergo due to wave pressure associated to train transit is transmitted to the overhead line, so that potentially it influences the interaction between the catenary itself and the pantograph of the passing train. The paper focuses on the influence of such peculiar configuration on the quality of the current collection of high speed pantograph, for single and double current collection. The study has been carried out first with an experimental investigation on the pressure distribution on noise barrier, both in wind tunnel and with in-field tests. Subsequently a numerical analysis of the dynamics of the barrier subjected to the wave pressure due to train transit has been carried out, and the output of such analysis has been used as input data for the simulation of the pantograph-dynamic interaction at different speeds and with front or rear pantograph in operation. Consideration of structural modifications was then highlighted, in order to reduce the influence on the contact loss percentage.

The pantograph should supply the electrification equipments of a train with the current from the overhead catenary system over a broad range of speeds. For a high-speed electrical train, the dynamic interaction between the pantograph and the overhead catenary system causes the variation of the contact force. As the operational speed increases, the variation of the contact force increases. The contact force variation can cause contact losses, arcing and sparking. If the spark happens between the pantograph and the overhead catenary system, the EMI(electro magnetic interface) and noises may occur. After all, the quality of current collection is deteriorated. This paper deals with the dynamic characteristics analysis between pantograph and catenary system using block pulse function.

To maintain contact between catenary and pantograph copper is important in order to transmit power smoothly on Current collection system. But, Arc discharge with strong light is generated because of contact loss. Therefore, Arc discharge detection is important measurement factor judging performance of current collection system. In this paper, It is described to results of arc discharge applying UV detection technology using arc generator. And Arc discharge was detected using the most commonly used processing catenary and rigid catenary and pantograph copper of electric rolling stock for securing arc detection instrument reliability. Results of contact loss detection instrument in this paper will be used for maintenance of current collection quality and system.

A dynamic simulation program for pantograph-catenary system is developed based on a mode superposition method to predict current collection performance. Formulations for the dynamic simulation are presented in this paper. The number of modes which should be considered for a KTX catenary system is reviewed through frequency response analyses. The responses for GPU pantograph - KTX catenary system are simulated with various train speeds. The our simulation results are in reasonably good agreements with RTRI simulation program, SNCF simulation program, and BR simulation program.

400km/h급 전차선로가 우리나라에 시범 부설되었다. 400km/h 심플 커티너리를 설계함에 있어서 사전이도를 어떻게 해야 하는가는 관심이 집중된 엔지니어링 항목이다. 사전이도는 일정 고속 대역에서 집전성능을 향상시키는 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러나 400km/h 속도에서 효과에 대해서는 아직 정립되어있지 않다. 400km/h 커티너리에서 적절한 사전이도량을 파악하기 위하여 사전이도 0과 1/3000 조건에서 전차선과 팬터그래프 사이 동적 성능 예측 시뮬레이션을 실시하였다. 이 예측에 근거하여 400km/h 전차선로 설계에서는 0 사전이도를 채택하였다. 그리고 400km/h 전차선로 시범구간(28km)을 건설하면서 일부구간에 1/3000 사전이도 구간(약 1km)을 조성하였다. HEMU-430X 열차를 투입하여 사전이도 조성 구간을 포함하여 시범구간에서 접촉력 측정을 실시하였다. 본 논문에서는 사전이도 조성 구간과 사전이도가 없는 구간의 동적 성능(접촉력)에 대하여 기술하며 그 둘을 비교한다. 결론적으로 400km/h 전차선로에서 사전이도를 주지 않은 구간이 1/3000 사전이도 구간보다 양호한 동적(집전) 성능을 나타냄을 해석적 및 실험적 검토를 통하여 확인하였다.

Apar The dynamic characteristics of the current collection system are evaluated during a test run. Signals from accelerometers attached to the pantograph assembly are acquired through a measurement system and analyzed. It is found that the train speed significantly influences the magnitude and frequency characteristics of the pantograph motion. The major frequency components of interest are found to be frequency components originating from the motion of the train along the catenary as well as the several resonance frequencies of the structural vibration of the pantograph. The contact force is also calculated by assuming the pantograph panhead as a rigid structure.

The Korean High Speed Train(KHST) had been developed and evaluating on the Kyoung-Bu High Speed Line by through 'G7-R&D project'. In order to evaluate the function and characteristics of high speed train system, various experimental conditions have been considered and conducted. In this paper, current collection characteristics of KHST between pantograph and catenary system and dynamic behaviors are measured and analysed over 300 to 350km/h in running speed of KHST. A measuring system which was developed and installed on the Korean High Speed Train for the performance and mechanical characteristics of the KHST pantograph is used for this trial running test and we proofed that KHST has a remarkable and stable current collection characteristics as it had been designed.

The dynamic characteristics of the current collection process of the high-speed railway are investigated through signals acquired during a test run. The signals are obtained from accelerometers, load cells, and strain gauges attached to various positions of the pantograph, and they are processed in time-and frequency-domains to obtain the dynamic characteristics. The main natural frequency of the pantograph is found to be 8.5Hz. There also are components at low frequencies varying linearly with the train speed. The contact frequency components above 20Hz is attenuated as they pass through the secondary suspension. The main frequency component of the load cell signal is found to be related with the rolling motion of the panhead generated by the stagger in the catenary.

In this paper, the combined system equation of motion, which can analyze the dynamic interaction between pantograph and catenary system, is derived by adopting absolute nodal coordinates and rigid body coordinates. The analysis results are compared with real experiment data from test running of Korean high-speed train (HSR 350x). In addition, a computation method for the dynamic stress of contact wire is presented using the derived system equation of motion. This method might be good example and significant in that the structural and multibody dynamics model can be unified into one numerical system.

A dynamic simulation program of a catenary-pantograph system including tunnel section and transient section is developed in this study. The simulation program can accommodate for the pantograph of two panheads and three d.o.f model. Using the developed program, the dynamic characteristics with a SCHUNK'S WBL 85-PANTOGRAPH are analyzed at the conventional TAEBAEK line and its tunnel section when the catenary system is supported by a tunnel bracket. The simulation results show that the variation of contact force md uplift displacement is allowable in general section and the entrance and exit of a tunnel, but the uplift displacement and the separation ratio within tunnel section is difficult to allow.
