TO THE QUESTION OF SELF-EXCITATION ASYNCHRONOUS MACHINE IN BREAKING MODE OF TRACTION DRIVE

Abstract

This article presents the results of research relating to feeding the asynchronous machine with reactive current in breaking mode of traction drive of mine contact electric locomotives, in particular the conditions for sustainable capacitor excitation. Also presented theoretical principles for the calculation of capacitance of the filter's capacitor. This theoretical principles is recomended for using in in practical calculations.
