Traction Unified Power Flow

Traction Unified AC & DC Power Flow

Traction power flow considers unbalanced network modeling to solve AC transmission, AC or DC traction power and LV signaling circuits in one unified time series simulation. Train Performance Calculator is considered as an input to the study where the rolling stock mechanical demands are converted to electrical demand on the traction power grid.
