Book synopsis

This book has evolved from the lecture series Elektrische§Bahnen ( Electric railways ) which has been held at§Ruhr-Universität Bochum since 1996. Its primary audience are students§of electrical energy technologies, control engineering and mechanical§engineering as well as young engineers of electrical engineering,§especially in the fields of power electronics, in railway industry and§in railway-operating companies.§The book intends to convey mechanical fundamentals of electric§railway propulsion, which includes rail-bound guidance, transmission of§traction effort from wheel to rail under the influence of non-constant§levels of adhesion and the transmission of motor torque to a§springmounted and thus sliding drive set. The focal point of the book§will be the disposition of electric traction units powered by§three-phase induction motors. We shall discuss the stationary and§dynamical behaviour of the squirrel-cage induction motor and the§principle and construction features of pulse-controlled inverters, as§well as scalar and field-oriented control systems and four-quadrant§power converters, feeding the DC link of the inverters.
