In this paper, the diagnosis method for AC traction motor is to reduce their maintenance loads. We tried to apply this method to maintenance of traction motor in railway vehicle. Sample coils for stator of traction motor were tested by accelerative thermal degradation which composed of heat, vibration, moisture, and overvoltage applying. Reliability and expected life were evaluated on the insulation system for 200 class traction motor.

In this paper, The strength and driving characteristics of it were investigated according to developing the traction motor for 8200 electric locomotive series. For this purpose, Flux density strength was analyzed and then structural strength was investigated such as a stator frame, design of the rotor shaft bearing according to the design process. In addition, the traction motor operating point was analyzed according to slip frequency variation at a power source frequency. As the results of analysis on torque-speed characteristic curve, we was confirmed that traction motor was controlled as torque control prior to motor speed 1610[rpm], power control between 1610[rpm] and 2500[rpm] and breakdown torque control more than motor speed 2500[rpm].

High-speed traction has voltage source variation because the electric power of tractions is supplied by difference traction power system according to operating section. This paper proposes the robust control maintaining constant output performance against voltage source variation for PWM converters of the high speed traction. The proposed scheme consists of feed-forward compensation for current controller by on-line calculating the rms voltage of voltage source. Total dynamic performance of high speed traction can be improved by the reduction of the output voltage ripple which is resulted from voltage source sag and variation. The superior performance and validity of the proposed scheme is proved through the simulation.

According to recent data more than 80% of people suffer from back pain, due to an aging and a poor posture, at least once in their life time, and 7~10% of them have chronic spine illness. Researchers over the years have studied on various spinal traction devices that utilize the force of traction, and have also reported clinical test results. However, most existing devices are too complicated and too expensive. In order to solve these problems, we have developed a new device in which the frame moves up and down and at the same time tilting angle of the frame is adjusted. We have analyzed the forces applied on the body as a function of tilting angle. And the result shows that the new device has achieved the force of traction, which is known to be effective for spinal rehabilitation.

The korean high speed train (350km/h), composed of 7cars that are 2 power cars, 2 motorized car and 3 trailer cars, has been developed and is under on-line test. To verify the design requirements about the functions and traction performances of this train, KRRI(Korea Railroad Research Institute) decided to evaluate traction performances of the train during on-line test. For this purpose, such as torque, velocity, voltage and current, must be measured. KRRI has developed the measurement system that can be measured vast and various signals effectively. In this paper, we introduce traction performances of korean high speed train. The traction measurement items are focused on the verification of motor block performances. Motor block are consist of 2 motor. For this test, we verified traction performances of korean high speed train.

D.C. traction systems can cause stray currents which could adversely affect both the railway concerned and outside installations, when the return circuit is not sufficiently insulated versus earth. As experience for several decades has not shown evident corrosion effects from a.c. traction systems and actual investigations are not completed, stary currents flowing from a d.c. traction system is issued. D.C. traction systems can cause stray currents can be corrosion and subsequent damage of metallic structures, where stray currents leave the metallic structures. There is also the risk of overheating, arcing and fire and subsequent danger to persons and equipment. Any provision employed to control the effects of stray currents be checked, verified and validated. Direct measurement of stray current is difficult and a provision employed to control the effects of stray currents is proposed.

Traction Motor is being transferred to the squirrel cage induction motor from D.C motor, by the improved power semiconductors like GTO, IGBT, etc. In the Induction Motor, inverter system must be used for delivering variable voltage variable frequency. But, by pulsating in the system the harmonics would be produced, and that cause the torque ripple and enfeeble the dynamic characteristics of the motor. So, to use the inverter system, we should take the torque ripple into consideration. To minimize the torque ripple in the VSI fed Traction Motor, the optimal pulsating was presented in this paper. By using the SPWM(Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation) method, feeding the appropriate pulse, we can minimize the torque ripple and improve the transient response.
