Flexible medium voltage DC electric railway systems

Deliverables

WP summary report - the performance and characteristics of static converters for MVDC rail power supplies

This technical report includes comparative analysis of MVDC converter topologies their interconnection with the overhead line and the power distribution grid and their control strategies The report will include monitoring and verification of the impact against the technical KPI c for what concern static converters for MVDC railway electrification systems

Assessment of performance for MVDC electrification systems

A short report will be developed summarising the results obtained from the model of static converters developed in Task 1.2. The report will include monitoring and verification of the impact against the technical KPI (a)

Final project summary report

This document critically reviews the effect of the action by comparing the initial plans and objectives with the actual results achieved by the project The report will include monitoring and verification of the impact against the non technical KPI a non technical KPI b and non technical KPI c

Literature review of converters suitable for MVDC railway electrification

A short report will be developed from the study of the most important and recent articles published on static converters for the supply of railway electrification systems and for medium voltage power distribution networks

WP summary report - use of MVDC transformers for railway traction

This technical report includes description of topologies of converters for MVDC transformers analysis of power losses and impact of new semiconductor technologies control of the converters to optimise the operation of the traction packages The report will include monitoring and verification of the impact against the technical KPI b and technical KPI c for what concern the MVDC transformer

Converters topologies for MVDC transformers

A short report will be produced comparing several modular topologies for MVDC transformers to identify the most suitable for the application to railway traction.
