Abstract
Objective: Analysis of the operation of a bidirectional isolated converter for a direct-current traction drive of electric rolling stock under various load conditions. Methods: Mathematical modeling was applied for the research. The results are presented in the form of mathematical relationships and graphs of currents and voltages. Results: The relationship between the output voltage and the duty factor of a bidirectional isolated converter has been revealed. The converters operation is considered at six characteristic intervals of a full cycle with the following initial conditions: i(t0) < 0, i(t0) = 0, i(t0) > 0. The main dependences of the current in the inductance, the input and output voltage, the shape of the voltage and current curves for different operation modes of a bidirectional converter are given. The duty factor is determined to obtain the maximum output power of the bidirectional converter. Practical importance: The proposed bidirectional isolated converter scheme makes it possible to implement traction and regenerative braking modes for a traction drive of a DC electric rolling stock. The simulation results show that with significant changes in load the system retains the specified characteristics, provides speed
