    2. Traction Transformers

    The Traction Simulation Study for the Line 7 extension has been performed by M/s Ardanuy

    using RailPower software.

    In this chapter the results and main conclusions obtained from the study are included.

    2.1. Power consumption of TSSs

    Different alternatives have been simulated to get the power consumptions in transformers of

    the Tractions Substations. The values have been obtained taking into account these

    assumptions:

    Total Trip: Mukundpur Shiv Vihar, 57.705 km, 37 stations.

    Rolling Stock with 6 coach compositions (DM-T-M-M-T-DM) and full loaded (1,800

    people). Total weight of Rolling Stock is 371.25 Tons (Tare weight is 252 Tons, 42

    Tons/car).

    It is assumed that up to 75% of the power generated by train braking is able to be

    regenerated in electrical power by the motors of the train (Regenerative braking

    performance will be 0.75).

    Braking force will be supplied by the train motor brakes until the maximum engine

    brake force for each speed is given. If it is necessary more braking force than the

    motor is able to generate, it will be provided by pneumatic brake.

    By default, it is considered a value of train power factor of 1.

    Auxiliary Power Consumption of trains (according to values provided by DMRC): 33

    kVA/car (198 kVA whole train)

    Headway of 135 seconds between trains in same direction (what means 68 trains at

    same time in the system)

    2.1.1. Normal operation (5 traction substations working)

    Maximum, average and RMS (maximum RMS value for integration period of 1 hour) power

    values for Traction Substations during the peak hour are shown in the following table.

    Table 1. Simulated values of power consumption in TSS. Normal operation

    According to these values, transformers with nominal power of 40/50 MVA are plenty

    dimensioned to feed the whole line present.

    The overload conditions that each transformer should be complied are:

    Overloads above 150% of nominal power (40 MVA) during less than 15 minutes in a

    3 hour cycle.

    Overloads above 200% of nominal power (40 MVA) during less than 5 minutes in a 3

    hour cycle.

    It can be seen the worst case (transformer more loaded) for this simulation is transformer of

    Dhaula Kuan TSS. There is not any instant in the simulation when the power is higher than

    150% of nominal power (40x1,5 = 60 MVA), therefore both conditions of overloading are

    complied.

    2.1.2. Failure cases

    Feed extensions cases have been simulated, for failures of 1, 2, 3 and 4 TSS. The worst

    case for each type of operation (N-1, N-2, N-3 and N-4) has been simulated.

    The following list shows the worst case simulated for each operation mode (the worst case

    for each operation mode is the case where the electrical sector fed by 1 TSS is the longest):

    N-1 Case. Failure of TSS3 (INA): Dhaula Kuan will feed from Neutral Section in K.P

    9+200 to Neutral Section in 34+935.

    N-2 Case. Failure of TSS1 (Mukund Pur) and TSS2 (Dhaula Kuan): INA will feed

    from dead end of the line (Mukund Pur Station) to K.P. 34+845.

  • 25 KV Traction Equipment Sizing Calculations 8

    N-3 Case. Failure of TSS1 (Mukund Pur), TSS2 (Dhaula Kuan) and TSS3 (INA):

    Vinod Nagar will feed from dead end of the line (Mukund Pur Station) to K.P. 48,685.

    N-4 Case. Failure of TSS2 (Dhaula Kuan), TSS3 (INA), TSS4 (Vinod Nagar) and

    TSS5 (Yamuna Vihar): Mukund Pur will feed the whole line

    Simulations for feed extension cases have been realized taking into account the following

    headways:

    2.2. Voltage in pantograph

    2.2.1. Normal operation (5 traction substations working)

    Voltage in the train pantographs have been calculated considering Normal Operation of

    electrification system (5 Traction Substations working at same time).

    For this calculation the following has been taken into account:

    Value of lump impedance of the catenary system

    25 kV feeding cable impedance

    Exit voltage at the electrical traction substations

    Exit current at the substations

    Current consumed by each train, which will correspond to the results of the

    simulations

    The voltages presented below are the maximum and minimum that can be produced on the

    pantograph with the foreseeable circulation graph (headway of 135 seconds).

    For normal operation, minimum voltage in the line is 26,517 V, over the threshold

    established in the normative EN 50163 Railway applications - Supply voltages of traction

    systems, for traction systems of AC 25 kV (Umin1 = 19,000 V).

    2.2.2. Failure cases

    Except in the case of N-1, the headway between trains should increase as shown below to

    assure that the voltage drop in the pantograph trains complies with the values established in

    norm EN 50163 (where Umin1 = 19,000 V):

    In N-1 situation, the minimum value of voltage in train pantograph is 25,550 V. This value is

    over the threshold established in the normative EN 50163 (where Umin1 = 19,000 V)

    In N-2 situation, the minimum value of voltage in train pantograph is 19,737 V. This value is

    over the threshold established in the normative EN 50163 (where Umin1 = 19,000 V)

    In N-3 situation, the minimum value of voltage in train pantograph is 20,159 V. This value is

    In N-4 situation, the minimum value of voltage in train pantograph is 20,478 V. This value is

    over the threshold established in the normative EN 50163 (where Umin1 = 19,000 V)

    2.3. Conclusions

    Main conclusions obtained for the study are summarized below:

    From electrical simulations, it can be deduced that 40/50 MVA transformers are

    sufficiently dimensioned to support headway of 135 seconds with the model of train

    considered and the 5 substations working at normal operation.

    There are no overloads exceeding 50% in any of the transformers of 40/50 MVA

    (nominal power value).

    From the simulations of failure of one of the Traction Substations (feed extensions

    cases) it can be deduced for the worst case will be failure of INA TSS. In this case

    the transformers of 40/50 MVA (Dhaula Kuan TSS) comply with the criteria of

    overload.

    With respect to drop voltage along the line, for cases simulated the voltages in train

    pantographs are over the threshold established in the normative EN 50163 Railway

    applications - Supply voltages of traction systems (where Umin1 = 19,000 V)

  • 25 KV Traction Equipment Sizing Calculations 14

    From the simulations of failure of more than 1 Traction Substation (feed extension N-

    2, N-3 and N-4) headway must be increased in order to reduce the number of trains

    and therefore maximum drop voltage along the OCS will be reduced complying with

    the values established in norm EN 50163 (where Umin1 = 19,000 V).

    With these operation conditions and headways, it can be deduced that for the worst

    cases that all transformers will be plenty dimensioned for 40/50 MVA.

    3. Booster Transformers

    Currently, in existing lines of DMRC there are two kinds of Booster Transformers, with the

    following characteristics:

    Nominal Rating 150 kVA 280 kVA

    Rated Current and

    voltage

    366 A at 409 V 500 A at 560 V

    Overload rating (15 ms) 550 A 750 A

    225 W 350 W

    Guaranteed max load

    losses

    4000 W 6500 W

    Table 10. Booster transformers used in DMRC

    The maximum current calculated for outgoing feeders for the main line in Line 7 is 439.58 A

    according to the electrical dimensioning of the Line 7 simulated with RailPower. This value

    of current is the RMS value corresponding to n-2 failure situation (Mukundpur TSS and

    Dhaula Kuan TSS failure) for the feeder cable to Down Line at Mukundpur side.

    Capacity of booster transformers will be calculated with the expression:

    BTRCBT UIS

    Where:

    SBT = Capacity of the booster transformer (VA).

    UBT = Voltage in the booster transformer (V).

    IRC = Return current which cross the booster transformer (A)

    = Performance of the Booster transformer

  • 25 KV Traction Equipment Sizing Calculations 16

    Figure 5. Scheme of operation with Booster transformers

    Considering that the voltage of the return conductor in the connection with rails is zero, the

    voltage of the booster transformer can be calculated according to the expression:

    )( BTRCRCRCBT zLzIU

    Where:

    UBT = Voltage in the booster transformer (V).

    IRC = Return current which cross the booster transformer (A)

    ZRC = Impedance per km of the return conductor (ohm/km)

    LRC = Length of return conductor between the adjacent connections of RC with the

    rail (km).

    ZBT = Impedance of the booster transformer (ohm)

    Calculating these parameters:

    IRC (A) 439.58 From electrical dimensioning of the Line 7

    (Maximum RMS value of case N-2)

    0.85 Typical value

    ZRC (ohm/km) 0.119+j0.402 Calculated from catalogue

    LRC (km) 2.6 Maximum distance between two adjacent RC to rail

    connections

    ZBT (ohm/km) 0.016+j0.078 According calculated in annex 2 of Traction

    Simulation Sizing Study

    UBT (V) 514.12 Calculated with previous data

    Sa (kVA) 265.92 Calculated with previous data

    Table 11. Sizing of BT

    Therefore, the Booster transformer of 280 kVA can be selected for the worst case.

    Nevertheless, taking into account the location of every BT along the line (distance to TSS)

    and the distances between adjacent BTs, and considering that every TSS feed the line with

  • 25 KV Traction Equipment Sizing Calculations 17

    this value maximum of current, these parameters can be calculated for every booster

    transformer and therefore, accurate sizing of every booster transformer can be done.

    4. 25 kV Feeders

    Dimensioning of 25 kV feeders has been developed according to the worst criterion of

    following ones:

    Maximum admissible current for conductors will be taken into account in order to

    select the cable according to the maximum calculated current in normal conditions.

    Voltage drop will be calculated in order to maintain minimum voltage above the

    minimum voltage required for operation, which is 19 kV, according to EN.

    Conductors must withstand mechanical and thermal loads during a short circuit.

    Firstly, the value of currents foreseen in all of these cases is calculated. With all of these

    values of currents, the size of the conductors which compose the feeders are checked.

    4.1. Rated current calculation (In)

    4.1.1. Main track

    The maximum current calculated for feeding of the main line in Line 7 can be obtained from

    Power Consumption Assessment for the electrical dimensioning of the Line 7: Mukundpur

    Shiv Vihar. According to results given by the software, the worst case regarding currents is

    when Mukundpur TSS and Dhaula Kuan TSS fail. In such case, INA TSS must feed the

    section fed by these two substations in normal operation.

  • 25 KV Traction Equipment Sizing Calculations 20

    Where F1 are the feeders which feed the Mukundpur side and F2 are the feeders which feed

    the Shiv Vihar side of OHE.

    Therefore, the feeders must be sized for an In of 439.58 A.

    In the chapter 4.5 the conductors of feeders are sized according to this value of

    current.

    4.1.2. Depot Calculation

    For Depot, the following cases have been considered:

    Starting up of one train.

    Several trains in stabling tracks consuming auxiliary power (33% of trains stabled in

    depot).

    The maximum current obtained between these two situations will be considered for sizing

    the feeder cables from TSS to Depot.

    Current in the starting up

    For the starting up of the trains, the maximum current consumed by one train is 240 A

    according to rolling stock data received (annex 4). It is considered that only one train is

    starting up at depot at the same time.

    Current because of auxiliary power consumption

    The power required by auxiliaries of the rolling stock (6 cars) is 198 kVA.

    In Mukundpur Depot there are 18 stabling track with capacity for 36 trains formed by 6 cars.

    Considering that 33 % of the trains will be consuming maximum power at the same time, the

    current through the feeder will be:

    minn

    nU

    SnI

    Where:

    n = number of trains consuming auxiliary power at the same time

    Sa = apparent power of auxiliaries of the rolling stock (6 cars) in kVA.

    In Vinod Nagar Depot there are 45 stabling track with capacity for 45 trains formed by 6 cars.

    current through the feeder will be:

    Where:

    Case of 15 trains with auxiliary power consumption

    Therefore the maximum current considered to size the feeder cable to Mukundpur and to

    Vinod Nagar Depot will be given by the starting up of train case.

    In the chapter 4.5 the conductors of feeders are sized according to these values of

    current.

    4.2. Calculation with current in case of nominal overload of the transformer (Io)

    In the previous chapter, the nominal current in the worst case of overload has been

    determined according to results given by Power Consumption Assessment.

    However, traction transformers must have an overloading capacity of traction transformer of

    50%loading for 15 minutes and 100% overloading for 5 minutes, after the transformer has

    attained steady temperature on continuous operation at full load, with interval between two

    successive overloading of 3 hours.

  • 25 KV Traction Equipment Sizing Calculations 22

    Therefore, in case of the maximum overload of the transformer, the current will be bigger

    than obtained by calculations, because the transformer capacity has been selected in order

    to fulfill this overloading requirement.

    Taking this into account, the capacity of the transformer considered for calculations must be

    of 40 MVA.

    The maximum current given by the transformer in overload situation can be obtained by:

    n

    oo

    U

    SI

    With:

    So = apparent power in kVA in 50% and 100% overload.

    Un = nominal voltage in kV.

    Therefore, the currents will be:

    Un (kV) 25 25

    Sn (kVA) 60000 80000

    In (A) 2400 3200

    Table 17. Currents given by traction transformer in overload cases

    These currents will pass through 4 feeders existing in the substation (up and down,

    Mukundpur and Shiv Vihar sides). The quantity of the total current which goes for every

    feeder will not be the same. To make the calculation, the same percentages which have

    been obtained in the Power Consumption Assessment calculation have been considered. In

    the case of failure n-2, these percentages are:

    RMS %

    F1 DN 439.58 37%

    F1 UP 384.58 33%

    F2 DN 192.75 16%

    F2 UP 160.73 14%

    Table 18. RMS values of current in every feeder cable of INA TSS. N-2 case

    Taking these percentages into account, the most loaded feeder in the overload situation will

    take the 37% of the total current. Therefore, the feeder must be dimensioned for withstand

    888 A during 15 minutes and 1184 A for 5 minutes.

  • 25 KV Traction Equipment Sizing Calculations 23

    In the chapter 4.5 the conductors of feeders are sized according to these values of

    current.

    4.3. Voltage drop

    Voltage drop calculated in Traction Simulation Study for Line 7 has already into account the

    length of the feeders which feed main tracks from TSSs. Therefore, they are suitable

    according to this criterion.

    Regarding feeder to Depots, voltage drop must be calculated according to expression:

    XjRILU

    Where:

    L = Length of the conductor (km)

    I = Current of the conductor (A)

    R = conductor resistance ( /km)

    X = conductor reactance ( /km)

    The voltage drop will be:

    Table 19. Voltage drop calculation for feeder cables in depots

    4.4. Short circuit criteria

    When sizing and selecting equipment, and electrical components must be taken into account

    in accordance with VDE (Association of German Electrical Engineers) determinations, not

    only due to permanent loads the current and voltage, but surges caused by short circuits.

    Short-circuit currents are usually several times higher than nominal therefore cause high

    dynamic and thermal overloads. The short circuit currents traversing land can also be the

    cause of contact stresses and unacceptable interference. Short circuits can cause the

    destruction of equipment and components or cause damage to people if the design does not

    take into account the maximum short-circuit currents.

  • 25 KV Traction Equipment Sizing Calculations 24

    For calculation of short circuit currents will follow the guidelines VDE 0102, and 2/11.75

    1/11.71 parts.

    Two methods exist to perform the calculation, one, the absolute impedance calculation, and

    the other, the dimensionless impedance calculation or per unit. It has been selected the

    calculation per unit method for this design.

    The per unit method simplifies the calculation when there are two or more levels of voltage

    and interest the effective value. It also presents other advantages:

    Manufacturers specify the impedances in percent of the nominal values given in the

    plates.

    The impedances per unit of the same type of apparatus are very close values,

    although their ohmic values are very different. If you do not know the impedance of a

    device, you can select from tabulated data that provide reasonably accurate values.

    The impedance of a transformer unit is equal in the primary than in the secondary

    and is not dependent on the type of connection of the windings.

    To follow the method per unit must establish two arbitrary values, such condition all others.

    Normally the base values chosen are:

    A [MVA] power for the entire circuit

    B [kV] to a voltage level

    For a different voltage level, the voltage value of the base has to be multiplied by the

    transformation ratio of the transformer which separates the two levels.

    In calculating circuit currents requires knowledge of the temporal variations since the short

    circuit occurs until it reaches the permanent short-circuit current. As in practice as quickly as

    possible short circuit current by circuit breakers or other devices, knowledge of temporal

    variations of the short-circuit current is only necessary to select and size the equipment and

    components in some cases.

    The parameters involved in the calculation of the short circuit currents are:

    I"k: is the rms value of the symmetrical short-circuits current, is the moment when the

    short circuit occurs. From this value the following currents are determined.

    Is: Maximum current asymmetric short, is the maximum instantaneous value of the

    current, which occurs after the short circuit occurs. Also known as peak value or

    impulse current. This value may know electrodynamics forces.

  • 25 KV Traction Equipment Sizing Calculations 25

    Isc: Permanent Short Circuit Current, is the rms value of the symmetrical short-circuit

    current, which endures after completion of all transients. Used to determine the

    thermal stress on machinery.

    Ia: balanced current court, is the rms symmetrical short-circuit current flowing through

    a switch on the instant you start separating contacts. Used to determine the

    performance characteristics of the switch off apparatus.

    This design will be carried out calculations phase short circuits, and these, short circuit away

    from the generator. Thus one must take into account that VDE 0102 values permanent short

    circuit current (Icc) and cutting the symmetrical current (Ia) coincide with the current value of

    the symmetric initial short circuit current (I"k).

    Being able to work at a service temperature of 90C, these cables have the possibility of

    The feeders will be installed into canalization from the TSS to the viaduct. On the viaduct

    they will be installed on the parapet, supported by brackets. In case of the feeders of Depots,

    they will be into canalization from the TSS to the depot FP and from the FP to OHE.

    Therefore, the lower admissible current will occur when the cables are laid down buried into

    canalization. According to suppliers information, the admissible nominal current for an

    underground copper cable 1x240 mm2 is 501 A (see annex 1), when it is buried at 1.2 m

    depth, with ground temperature of 25C and a ground thermal resistivity of 1 Km/W.

    Considering that in the worst case, the groud temperature will reach the 40C it will be

    needed to consider a deration factor of 0.88. Therefore, the maximum nominal current of

    1x240 mm2 copper cable will be 440 A.

    In case of main tracks, maximum average current will be 439.58 A per feeder, so 219.79 A

    per each 240 mm2 cable in permanent operation. Therefore this 240 mm2 cable is valid with

    a safety factor of 2.

    In case of Depots, maximum nominal current will be 240 A, so one copper cable of 240 mm2

    can withstand this current with a safety factor of 1.8.

    Therefore, one 240 mm2 cable is able to withstand 998.12 A for 5 minutes and 646.58

    during 15 minutes.

    According to calculated in chapter 4.2 of this document, the feeder cable (2 cables of 240

    mm2) must be dimensioned for withstand 888 A during 15 minutes and 1184 A for 5

    minutes, so each cable of 240 mm2 should be able of withstand 444 A during 15 minutes

    and 592 A for 5 minutes.

    Therefore, 240 mm2 cables are able to withstand the overload currents with safety factors of

    it is shown in the following figure.

    As it can be seen in this figure, short circuit current considering duration of fault of 3 s is 19

    kA, higher to short circuit current calculated in chapter 4.4.4.

    5. Return Cables

    5.1. Return cables

    In front of substations, rails will be connected to substation by means of 3.3 kV cables. Their

    aim is to carry the return traction current from rails to substation, so they must withstand the

    same current than 25 kV feeders. Therefore they will be made up of the same number of

    cables and cross section, as the 25 KV feeders.

    5.2. Return conductor

    One all aluminium conductor with a nominal cross section of 233 sq.mm and a copper

    equivalent of 140 sq.mm will be used as Return Conductor. Dimensioning of this return

    conductor has been developed according to the worst criterion of following ones:

    Maximum admissible current for conductors will be taken into account in order to

    select the cable according to the maximum calculated current in normal conditions.

    Voltage drop will be calculated in order to maintain minimum voltage above the

    minimum voltage required for operation, which is 19 kV, according to EN.

    Conductors must withstand mechanical and thermal loads during a short circuit.

    5.2.1. Rated current calculation (In)

    In the Return current system foreseen, the return conductor must carry the same current as

    catenary. Therefore it must be dimensioned for carrying the same current calculated in the

    chapter 4.1.1., (439.58 A).

    The maximum admissible current for one all aluminium conductor (AAC) with a nominal

    cross section of 233 sq.mm is 584 A in the following conditions (annex 3):

    Environmental temperature: 40C

    Solar radiation 900 W/m2.

    Wind: 0.6 m/s

    Maximum conductor temperature: 80C

    Frequency: 50Hz

    Applying a deration factor of 0.9 to take into account the solar radiation and other deration

    factor of 0.89 to take into account that the worst environmental temperature will be 50C, the

    maximum admissible current will be 467.78 A, so the conductor selected is valid for the

    nominal current.

  • 25 KV Traction Equipment Sizing Calculations 36

    In stations, return conductor will be made by means a 233 sq.mm stranded aluminium

    conductor, with insulated sleeve. It will be laid under platforms.

    5.2.2. Voltage drop

    Voltage drop calculated in Traction Simulation Study for Line 7 has already into account the

    characteristics of return conductors, so it is not needed any additional calculation.

    5.2.3. Short circuit criteria

    Regarding of the maximum short circuit current supported by the Return conductor, it can be

    obtained by means of following expression:

    Where:

    I: Short circuit current (A)

    t: Short circuit duration (s)

    K: parameter which depends of kind of conductor (Cu or Al) and of its isolation. In

    present case with aluminium conductors, K = 94 will be assumed (jump of

    temperature from steady temperature to short circuit temperature minimum), so worst

    scenario has been assumed.

    S: cross section of the conductor (mm2)

    Therefore, the minimum section required to withstand the short circuit current calculated in

    chapter 4.4.4 will be:

    I (A) 11600 Calculated in chapter 4.4.4 of this document

    t (s) 0.25 Short circuit duration (estimated as

    conservative value)

    K 94 Value for aluminium conductor

    S (mm2) 61.7 Calculated with previous data

    Table 27. Return conductor sizing under short circuit current criteria

    Therefore, aluminium conductor of 233 mm2 selected is valid as return conductor.

    6. Induced Voltage Calculation

    According to IEC 60287-1-3:2002, induced voltage per unit length in a conductor can be

    determined by the following expression:

  • 25 KV Traction Equipment Sizing Calculations 37

    km

    VIMfE 3102

    Where:

    f: is the frequency of the nominal voltage waveform

    I: is the maximum permanent current main conductor

    where:

    Dm: is the distance between the two conductors 2

    For cable 26/45kV XLPE, Cu 240 Sqmm the characteristics are:

    d = 18.3 mm

    d' = 20.1 mm

    D = 38.5 mm

    Screen = 16 mm2

    Figure 10. Cross section of XLPE insulated cable

    The maximum drop voltage in case of the end of the cable being earthed is given by the

    expression:

  • 25 KV Traction Equipment Sizing Calculations 38

    LEV

    where:

    E: induced voltage per unit length in a conductor

    Therefore, in all cases the voltage in the sheath can be lower than touch voltage by earthing

    the cables in one end or in their center point and no sheath voltage limiters will be required.

    7. Circuit Breakers rating

    Circuit breakers are foreseen in the outgoing feeders in traction substations (TSSs), and in

    depots Feeding posts, installed in the incoming feeder from TSS and in the incoming feeder

    from main tracks.

    In any case, circuit breakers must be able to actuate in short circuit conditions. Therefore, for

    the election of the circuit breakers are fundamental two variables:

    Breaking capacity (or power off). Is defined by cutting symmetrical current (Ia). It is

    expressed in MVA

    Connection capacity (or power connection). Is defined by the maximum asymmetric

    short circuit current (IS). It is expressed in MVA

  • 25 KV Traction Equipment Sizing Calculations 39

    These variables have been calculated in the chapter 4.4.6 of these documents, and,

    regarding 25 kV circuit breakers they are:

    Cutting Symmetrical Current: Ia = 11.59 kA

    Breaking Capacity: Sr = 289.75 MVA

    Surge Current: Is = 29.5 kA

    Connection Capacity: Sc = 737.5 MVA

    Regarding voltage, they must able to withstand nominal values foreseen in the traction

    system:

    Rated voltage: 25 kV

    Maximum service voltage (permanent): 27.5 kV

    Therefore, the characteristics required for the circuit breakers foreseen in Mukundpur and

    Vinod Nagar Depot Feeding posts, as well in feeders of Rajouri Garden FP, Dhaula Kuan FP

    According to calculations shown in the chapter 4.1 the maximum nominal current through

    each feeder is 439.58 A.

  • 25 KV Traction Equipment Sizing Calculations 40

    Catenaries for up and down tracks are paralleled in SSPs along the track. Therefore, the

    interrupters will be dimensioned for the total current of the two tracks:

    In= 439.58 + 384.58 = 824.16 A.

    Regarding voltage, they must able to withstand nominal values foreseen in the traction

    system:

    Rated voltage: 25 kV

    protection. Therefore, they must be rated for the nominal current foreseen in depots which is

    240 A according to calculations included in chapter 4.1.2.

    In addition, current transformers will be used in feeders in:
