description | The article presents the results of research aimed at developing digital models for power flow analysis of railway power supply systems (RPSS) equipped with distributed generation (DG) units based on renewable energy sources. We employed the technique of modeling in the phase reference frame, which has the following features: system-wide consistency, which enables modeling power flows in a way that takes into account the properties and characteristics of a complex RPSS and the feeding power system; versatility, which allows for modeling of traction networks of various designs; comprehensiveness, which consists in the possibility of power flow analysis of normal, emergency, and special states of a RPSS, such as those occurring during de-icing of overhead contact system wires. Three groups of models have been developed. The first one was designed for power flow analysis RPSSs with DG units based on synchronous generators driven by mini-HPP turbines. It is also possible to apply this model in the case of inverter generation that uses photovoltaic panels. The second group of models provided simulation of RPSS power flows with induction generators. The third group enabled power flow analysis in the case where there are three-phase generators connected to a single-phase traction network by means of Steinmetz converters. Active harmonic conditioners and controlled reactive power sources were used to reduce the negative impact of inferior power quality on voltage deviations and harmonic distortion. Simulation results produced by the software package Fazonord showed that the following positive effects can be obtained on the basis of the use of RES-based DG units: reduced costs of power supply; reduced imbalance on the buses of district windings of traction substations, stabilization of voltage levels on bow collectors of electric locomotives. |
