Modeling of the transportation process on the Kokand-Andijan section of the Kokand regional railway track junction of the Uzbek railway

Abstract

The article presents original research results on the substantiation of the forward motion parameters of a freight train with a fixed maximum mass of the train and the main traction and operational characteristics of the energy efficiency of O’z-EL type AC freight electric locomotives on a real flat section of the railway. Energy-optimal control modes for the movement of the aforementioned freight train by electric locomotives of the O’z-EL series have been developed using the original computer hardware and software complex KORTES, and their traction and energy characteristics are presented in the form of numerical values and graphs with an error of no more than five percent compared to the practical data of the Kokand locomotive depot of the Uzbek Railway. The above results will be further used by the authors to evaluate the effectiveness of various options for energy-optimal control modes for the power equipment of the Oʼz-EL series electric locomotives when implementing freight transportation on sections of the Uzbekistan railway industry of varying complexity under real operating conditions
