TY - JOUR TI - Assessment of AC traction substation influence on energy quality in a supplying grid AU - Jefimowski, Włodzimierz AU - Szeląg, Adam TI - Assessment of AC traction substation influence on energy quality in a supplying grid AB - This article presents investigations performed on a 25 kV AC system with a Scott transformer simulation model. The model includes an energy quality parameter calculation algorithm with consideration to the train timetable. The simulation results enable an analysis of the energy quality parameters at the point of connection of the traction substation to the supplying grid. The presented tool enables the simultaneous calculation of voltage unbalance and harmonic content. The article presents the results of the energy quality analysis at the substation connection point for the specific location. The simulation results of the energy quality parameters are appraised on the basis of standard EN  50160:2010. The tool may prove helpful in the process of designing electrification systems, especially in the choice of traction transformer and power electronics device mitigating an imbalance and harmonic impact VL - 2018 IS - Volume 12 Year 2018 (115) PY - 2018 SN - 0011-4561 C1 - 2353-737X SP - 127 EP - 138 DO - 10.4467/2353737XCT.18.183.9671 UR - https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/czasopismo-techniczne/article/assessment-of-ac-traction-substation-influence-on-energy-quality-in-a-supplying-grid KW - AC electrification system KW - electric energy quality KW - simulation modelling KW - Scott transformer
