In the continuos process systems, traction between a moving web and rollers is one of key mechanisms for the study of major issues including the distributed control of tension, guiding, wrinkling, winding, and scratching. Energy is transferred from the driven rollers to the web and from the web to the idle rollers through traction. The characteristics of friction play major role in the determination of the traction force between the moving web and the rollers. In this paper the characteristics of friction between the moving web and the rollers are studied. A procedure to determine the friction coefficient between the moving web and rollers is developed. An experimental setup to validate the procedure is devised. Experimental results showed that the value of traction coefficient decreases as the operating web speed increases and increases as the operation web tension increase.

Since it is essential for traction motors to reduce size and weight to achieve given traction effort, they need high input voltage. But the lack of input voltage occurs periodically due to the characteristics of train system. Therefore traction inverters use over-modulation PWM to maximize inverter's voltage gain. On the other hand, IGBT inverters can use higher frequency twice than GTO ones, which resulted in the need for novel optimal synchronous PWM strategy. This paper suggests that linearly-compensated overmodulation/optimal synchronous PWM strategy and also the simulation results of the method for a real traction motor-intertia model are presented.

This study proposes a re-adhesion algorithm that has stable traction effort for rolling stock slip/slide minimization when deliverable traction decreases by slip. The proposed scheme estimates appropriate reference speed using two encoders for reducing slip and controls traction effort stably and has stable control characteristics for disturbance. The algorithm which uses the maximum adhesive effort by instantaneous estimation of adhesion force stably controls traction effort and gives rolling stock excellent acceleration and deceleration characteristics. And a slip sensing element that can quickly detect slip is used. Load motor and inverter were checked in various slip conditions for creating various line conditions.

This paper presents electro-magnetic characteristics of an Interior type Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (IPMSM) for traction applications. The importance of instantaneous electric propulsion capability for high torque has been highlighted in the present study and thus parametric analysis is performed by Finite Element Method (FEM). The paper provides analytical & experimental results, which demonstrate a performance of the studied traction motor The goal of this paper is to present a maximum power performance for traction motor which works extension of its own rated power. Experimental results meet well with FEM analysis of traction motor owing to inductance difference.

The Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) Inverter plays an important role in express locomotive. Especially after traction motors are fed by fast switching inverters, the interturn insulation is destroyed more heavily. However, a new type of polyimide corona resistant film is developed and used in insulation of traction motors. In order to investigate the service life of this kind of traction motor, the mechanism and characteristics of dielectric breakdown of polyimide corona resistant are studied in the paper. Experiments have been carried out on specimen according to the condition of traction motor. The breakdown point of tested sample film is analyzed through energy spectrum analysis and electron microscopic photograph. At last, it is presented that the characteristics and mechanism of breakdown of polyimide corona resistance film.

There are various elements that have influence on safety and reliability of high-speed railway vehicles. Among them, mechanical characteristics of traction motors are very important. Therefore, we verified that temperature characteristics have influence on damage and durability of these parts. We designed a measurement system for temperature test, and could measure the temperature of each device by the system. As the result of temperature test, we could confirm that the traction motors on Korean High-Speed Train satisfy the criteria. From this test, we get information of the traction motor about the temperature characteristic during running speed and running time.

It is desirable and advantageous to feed parallel propulsion with induction motors by a single voltage source inverter. However, effects of deviation of the wheel diameters on motor current, rotor speed and torque should be also considered for parallel operation. In order to understand the behavior and characteristics, a simple simulation model is developed by using a commercial Matlab Simulink. From the results, it is clear to manage the diameter deviation of the wheels which are connected to traction motors.

Korean High-Speed Train (350km/h), composed of 2 power cars, 2 motorized car and 3 trailer cars, has been developed and is under trial test. To verify the design requirements for the functions and traction performances of the train, KRRI (Korea Railroad Research Institute) decided to evaluate traction performances of the train during trial test. For this purpose, torque, velocity, voltage and current must be measured. KRRI has developed a measurement system that can measure 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 consists of 2 motors. By this test, we verified traction performances of Korean High-Speed Train.
