Abstract

Background: Railroad transportation in the actual operation process, there are also many dangerous accidents caused by resonance, which greatly affect the safety of railroad transportation. A comprehensive examination of the operational dynamics within the power branch of a traction substation is imperative for sustaining system equilibrium. Discrepancies between these facets pose a potential threat to the safety of railway transport. Thus, a meticulous analysis of highfrequency resonance characteristics and the formulation of effective suppression techniques become paramount.

Objective: Harmonics from grid-side locomotive traction braking are scrutinized under different operational scenarios and different train runs. The aim is to develop an effective harmonic management strategy to normalize the THD and thus maintain the traction power supply system to become more stable.

Methods: This study investigates the high-frequency harmonic resonance characteristics using a control variable approach. Harmonics and negative sequences generated during locomotive traction braking under different operating conditions are investigated by means of extensive analysis. These challenges require the implementation of a harmonic management method. This method uses a combination of two monotonic filters and a C filter in parallel. This method applies to different operating conditions and can dynamically adapt harmonics to changes in the number of trains, which is related to the actual dynamics of the traction power system closely.

Results: A comparative evaluation of seven operating conditions shows that the filter in this patent exceeds the efficiency of existing methods. The filter reduces the fluctuations during spectral changes, and the voltage distortion rate decreases from the previous 2.33% to 0.55%, making it more adaptable and promising effective harmonic management in high voltage and high current situations.

Conclusion: Through multiple simulation tests, a synergistic configuration involving the C-type filter and two single-tuned parallel connections under regenerative braking conditions emerges. This refined, patented filter design not only mitigates the impact of negative sequence during the filtration process but also substantially diminishes high harmonics and THD.
