Traction Equipment Modeling

eTraX includes traction specific equipment modeling in addition to complete modeling for transmission and low-voltage signaling power equipment. Traction power equipment can be used to model any AC voltage level, frequency and/or DC systems.

• Overhead Catenary Systems (OCS) Configuration & Impedance Calculation with Warehouse
• Railway Track Electrical Resistance & Warehouse
• Auto Transformer (AT)
• Booster Transformer (BT)
• Scott-T Transformer
• Elevation, Bend Radius and Speed Limits, Coasting, Signaling
• Traction Substation (TSS) and Switching Station (SSP) topologies. Typical electrical traction distribution configurations that are modeled using eTraX include:
  • 1 X AC kV without booster transformers
  • 1 X AC kV with booster transformers and return conductor
  • 2 X AC kV with autotransformers
  • DC traction with controlled rectifiers
  • DC traction with uncontrolled rectifiers
