Methodology for the Accurate Measurement of the Power Dissipated by Braking Rheostats

Methodology for the Accurate Measurement of the Power Dissipated by Braking Rheostats

The energy efficiency of transportation is a crucial point for the rail and metro system today. The optimized recovery of the energy provided by the electrical braking can lead to savings of about 10% to 30%. Such figures can be reached by infrastructure measures which allow the recovery of the brea...
