Value engineering considerations in electrical drive systems for traction applications
Abstract
The general requirements for electrical equipment used in traction applications are reviewed. These requirements and conditions include high inertia load, smooth torque control over the full range, high reliability, low maintenance, high efficiency, low mass, extended weak-field range for the motors, high top speed, dynamic or regenerative braking, motor and gearing exposed to heavy shock loading, limited motor diameter and length, and limited …
