Passenger Train Equipment Review Report. Volume 2. Propulsion System Components and Future Train Energy Consumption
Early in 1977, the Federal Railroad Administration, Office of Research and Development, initiated the Improved Passenger Equipment Evaluation Program (IPEEP), which was designed as a detailed systematic review of advanced passenger trains and equipment throughout the world that could possibly be used in the United States. During the course of this program, the members of the IPEEP Train System Review Team prepared 24 technical papers, in addition to the basic set of IPEEP reports covering baseline data and individual train reviews and a separate report on train performance methodology. This volume of six papers covers traction motor drives, modern slip detection and control systems for electric locomotives and multiple-unit cars, onboard high-voltage switchgear for electric locomotives and multiple-unit cars, high-voltage protection and switching control for Northeast Corridor vehicles, pantographs, and the energy consumption of future passenger trains.
