Abstract:

Results are given of experimental research on a GEV-1 generator for the electric power supply for railroad cars. A silicon three-phase bridge rectifier unit VK2-200 is used for rectifying the alternating current. The power produced by the generator on the direct current side is 15.8 kilowatts with a rotation speed of 900 - 3000 rpm. The characteristics of the machine, efficiency factor of the sinusoidal stress curve when idling, and the load with the rectifier and without it are given. Magnetic measurement was done on some parts of the machines magnetic circuit and the leakage coefficient was determined.
