STUDY OF STATIC CONVERTER IN AC LOCOMOTIVE

ABSTRACT:

   

         Our  project is  a study the conversion of the DC / AC voltage into 3phase 415volts for running auxiliary machines by using the static converters in AC locomotive

         This Project Report On Static Converter For Railway starts with by explaining the details about Electric Loco Shed. Electric Loco Shed maintains locomotive for utilization in freight and passenger train. All the miner and major inspection are carried out in the shed on a regular schedule specified by RDSO (Research Design Standard Organization).

         The Static Converter provides an artificial means by which a three-phase motor can be operated from a single-phase supply thereby offering a cost-effective solution to this dilemma. In most instances, no modification to the machine is necessary.

          This is the technique for converting the single phase to three phase AC supply in electric locomotives.Static converters are roles very important role in electric locomotives .This is the new technic used in electric locomotives in   india.
