This paper proposes a new model for harmonic analysis in 2${\times}$25㎸ traction power supply system including inverted feeder, contact line, rails and auto-transformer. The system model is based on four-port representation which is an extension of two-port network theory. In order to verify the proposed approach, we have analysed and tested real traction power feeding system focused on the amplification of harmonic current. The calculation results front tile proposed approach and the measurement data from the test are widely described in the paper.

The electric power, regenerated while railway vehicles braking or running downhill, makes U line voltage rise and the feeding system may not be secure. In order to keep away from these kind of insecurity, the regenerative energy should be consumed by loads or transmitted to the AC side via certain devices such as DC/AC converters. This paper introduces the developed regenerative inverter for electric railway.

An inducing current of power feeding line of high-speed railway system is varied by a relative position of telecommunication cable to the feeding line between plants. An analytical calculation formula of this inducing current is described in ITU-T Directives using multiconductor line method or two line method. In this paper, using the two line method, a variation characteristic of inducing current is simulated. The inducing current has a characteristic of hyperbolic function which is a symmetric shape of curve in the range between power feeding plants. This basic variation property can be considered when a power induction protection measure is planned.

DC railway power supply system generally uses the running rails as negative-polarity return conductor for traction load current, and the induced rail potential and stay current cause serious problems to any electrified matter in the underground and also safety problems to human body. This paper presents a new algorithm for the analysis of the rail potential and the stray current in DC railway power system operated under independent/parallel power feeding mode. The effect of load current fluctuation during train operation is also calculated by using TPS(Train Performance Simulation) program to analysis the variation of the railway potential and stray current along railway track. Simulation program is developed based on the proposed algorithm and case studies are provided.

A directional feeding method at the railway transformer is applied for supplying the power to the electric railway substations, and the pre-installed facilities with common feeder are utilized in preparation for the failure of feeding system and in finding a fault location in case that the catenary failure occurs. However, it is some difficulty in finding the fault location since there is an interface problem with the facilities when the supplying power system operates. In this paper, Auto Fault Locator Transfer Drive System (ALTDS) is designed to search for the fault location efficiently, and the measuring data are obtained and compared with the KORAIL standards. Further, the ground connection test is accomplished 24 times as the verification method, and it is shown that the methodology provides better performance than the existing traditional one.

This study presents an approach to model and to analyse traction power feeding system focused on the amplification of harmonic current. Through the research we can conclude the following: - The resonance frequency is not depend on the location of vehicle. The magnification of harmonic is, however, a function of the position of a train. - The resonance frequency is lower as catenary length is longer.

The induced voltages by AT power feeding system of electrified traction line to telecommunication line are calculated with the method of multi-conductor line solution in the CCITT Directives. There is a screening effect by railway line itself among various shielding factors against induction. It is the argue point whether the multi-conductor line solution contains the railway line effect since the calculation method does not show any expression about shielding factors. So this paper illuminates the mysterious question by reviewing the shielding factor principle on traction system, scrutinizing the Japanese bible about induction, analyzing the multi-conductor line solution itself, and comparing the result calculation considering the effect of railway screen. This paper concludes that multi-conductor line solution contains the screening effect of railway lines.

The process of inspecting electric railway vehicles is complicated and these vehicles accompany a risk of safety accidents. This developed system will be a great help in simplifying the shunting process and be very useful in terms of ensuring safety and providing user convenience. In this paper, the results of performance evaluation tests are studied on a movable catenary system for railway vehicles that secured mechanical durability, convenience, and operator safety by applying a specific rigid bar catenary of an existing mobile train line. We presented an analysis of the basic characteristics for site installation including sorting. In conclusion, this developed system was obtained in good results through durability test, durable mechanical load test and safety test in require specifications.

When the electric tractions are stopped or driven through the falling slope way, it occured to surplus energy in the DC power line. At present, these energy are exhausted by breaking-system. The converter is not only capable of feeding energy back into the AC source during excessive regeneration. It is issued for this surplus energy regenerating system. These systems are faced with high voltage and high power for railway DC power regeneration. This paper proposed a parallel PWM converter how to solve these problem.
