    1) A three phase loco uses single phase AC supply but has three phase induction traction motors. It has a simple squirrel cage induction motor design modified for traction use with VVVF control. 2) Key landmarks in the development of three phase locos in India include the first import of WAG-9 and WAP-5 locos in 1996, and the first indigenous models in 1998 and 2000. Technology has advanced from thyristor to IGBT-based converters. 3) Modern three phase locos have variants like the WAG-9, WAG-9H, and WAP-7. They use microprocessor control and regeneration to improve energy efficiency over older DC drive systems

    WHAT IS A THREE PHASE

    LOCO?
    • Works on single phase AC- 25 kV, 50 Hz,
    supply but TMs are three phase Induction
    machines.
    • Simple squirrel cage induction motor.
    • Torque speed characteristics modified to
    suit traction application with the help of
    VVVF.
    LANDMARKS

    Advantages of DC Drive

    • Simple Control

    – Rheostat, Tap-Changer, Thyristor

    • Ideal Torque – Speed Characteristics


    Problems with DC Drive

    • Traction Motor Maintenance – High

    • Stepped Control – Less Adhesion

    Converter DC Link Inverter


    Three Phase Drive
    • Maintenance – Low due to Induction Motor
    • Energy Saving – High due to Regeneration
    • Unity power factor
    • Adhesion Characteristics - Better
    • Control – Very Complex
    • Initial Cost – High
    • Life Cycle Cost - Low
    DC Motors Vs 3Ø AC Motor
    • High starting torque is a traction
    requirement
    – DC motor is better in this parameter

    – AC motor can be intelligently used to

    attain same performance

    • Power/Weight (KW/Kg) ratio


    – AC 3Ø: 0.3
    – DC: 0.1

    • Maintenance requirements
    – More wear & tear in DC Motor

    • Losses:
    – DC Motor has more Copper losses
    Three Phase Technology
    • Regenarative Braking
    –3 phase EMUs
    •Energy regenarated is 40% of energy
    consumed.
    •Approx. saving of 78 lakhs per rake per year
    –3 phase Locomotives
    •Energy regenarated is 12% of energy
    consumed.
    •Approx. saving of 23 lakhs per loco per year
