Design of a Circuit-Field Model of a Closed-Loop Electric Drive System Based on a Switched Reluctance Motor
(Dniprovsky State Technical University, Kamianske, Ukraine, 2024) Kachura, Oleksii V.; Kolychev, Serhii V.; Suhal, Yevhen O.; Kuznetsov, Vitaliy V.; Nikolenko, Anatolii V.
ENG: The distribution of switched reluctance motors (SRM) is due to their specific properties: high reliability due to the absence of sliding contacts, precise positioning, wide range of regulation. These properties allow the use of SRM in various adjustable electric drives in conjunction with semiconductor control systems. The complexity of the study such systems is a correct representation of both, the control system and the motor, taking into account their mutual influence and energy exchange. In addition, as a rule, SRM have a rather specific design, which limits the use of classical methods for their calculation and causes the use of numerical methods. The paper presents a mathematical model of a closed loop drive system on the rotor position and speed, based on the SRM. As a result of the unification of the SRM field model constructed on the basis of the Laplace and Poisson equations and the circuit model of the control system, a circuit-field mathematical model is obtained. The mathematical model takes into account the design features of the motor and allows to explore a drive system in dynamic modes of operation. An algorithm for switching power inverter keys for four phases of the SRM is developed. From the obtained values of magnetic induction and tension tensors the electromagnetic moment of the motor calculated. Electromagnetic and electromechanical parameters of the serial SRM-57-100-4 in the start-up mode obtained for the proposed model.

(Springer, Singapore, 2022) Chenchevoi, Volodymyr; Kuznetsov, Valeriy; Zachepa, Iurii; Chornyi, Oleksii; Chencheva, Olga; Kuznetsov, Vitaliy V.; Yatsiuk, Rostyslav; Luhova, Olha
ENG: The article defines the conditions of self-excitation of an inductive generator with capacitor excitation as part of an autonomous power source. Recommendations for the design of an autonomous power source based on an asynchronous machine in terms of the implementation of self-excitation conditions and optimal operating modes are formulated. A simulation model of an autonomous inductive generator and a solar battery for the analysis of transient, static and dynamic modes of operation has been developed. The conducted theoretical studies of capacitive self-excitation of inductive machines have created a good basis for solving problems related to the practical use of autonomous sources based on an inductive generator.
Enhancing Power Quality within the Context of Industrial Enterprises: Strategies for Improvement
(ScientificWorld-NetAkhatAV, Karlsruhe, Germany, 2023) Tryputen, Mykola; Kuznetsov, Vitaliy V.; Nikolenko, Anatoliy V.
ENG: The paper analyzes negative impact of poor-quality electricity on the performance of electrical installations. Particular attention is paid to the ways to improve power quality under the conditions of industrial enterprises. Use of “individual” LC-filters to protect extra important electric drives; use of “group” devices to compensate negative effect of noisy electricity at a workshop level (power active rectifiers are meant with their potential integration into the available converters for the controlled electric drives); and to inhibit voltage distortions within the areas of their origination (i.e. the mains protection against the root cause) are possible means to solve the problems.
The Generalized Chaotic System in the Hyper-Complex Form and Its Transformations
(Springer, Cham, 2022) Voliansky, Roman; Volianska, Nina; Kuznetsov, Vitaliy V.; Tryputen, Mykola; Kuznetsova, Alisa; Tryputen, Maksym
ENG: The paper deals with the development of the mathematical backgrounds to design the novel chaotic systems by transforming existent ones. These backgrounds are based on using well-known shift, rotation, and scale transformations and we offer using hyper-complex numbers to simplify these transformations and represent the transformed chaotic system by using the one 1st order ordinary differential equation. In such form all well known, newly discovered and unknown chaotic systems have the similar mathematical models that are differs only by used nonlinear function of hyper complex variable in the right hand expression. That is why the consideration chaotic system dynamic in the hyper-complex domain allows us to simplify initial system definition as well without applying any transformations. This fact simplifies mathematical definition of chaotic systems and their modeling and simulation. The right-hand expression of the transformed equation in this case are defined as the combination of transformation hyper-complex numbers and source system nonlinearity which is given in the hyper-complex domain. We offer to use variable transformation factors to improve the performance of the considered chaotic system. Since the above-mentioned variable factors can be produced by other chaotic systems, we suggest designing the novel chaotic system by combining existed ones with the linear transformations. As an example, we consider the transformation of the well-known Lorenz system and show the differences between the source system and target one.

(ScientificWorld-NetAkhatAV, Karlsruhe, Germany, 2024) Kuznetsov, Vitaliy V.; Tsyplenkov, Dmytro; Nikolenko, Anatoliy V.

The Impact of Connecting a Wind Power Plant on Emergency Modes of a Traction Substation of an AC Traction System
(Springer, Cham, 2022) Kachan, Yurii; Kuznetsov, Vitaliy V.; Bondar, Oleh I.
ENG: Among the countries of South-Eastern Europe, Ukraine has the greatest technical potential for the implementation of renewable energy sources, and the main part of it is wind power engineering. The traction power supply system of the railways in Ukraine can become an important transiter and consumer of electricity generated by wind power plants. At the same time, the task of ensuring traffic safety and uninterrupted power supply of traction loads requires a preliminary study of the influence of the connected wind power plant capacity on the growing short-circuit currents in the distributive units of the traction substation to which the specified connection is planned. This paper proposes a way to implement such prediction based on a systematic approach, in which a traction substation and an integrated wind power plant are considered as a single electrical-engineering complex, the sources of which work to power the short-circuit point. In previously published studies, the authors usually consider the processes in renewable energy sources and in the traction power supply system separately, without taking into account the mutual influence. The analysis of processes in the short-circuit mode is proposed to perform according to the equivalent circuits for the specified electrical-engineering complex developed by the authors with various possible options for connecting a wind power plant using mathematical modeling with proven methods of theoretical electrical engineering. The peculiarity of the study presented in this paper is also the use of the multiplication factor of the short-circuit current as a criterion for assessing the impact of the power of the connected wind power plant on the short-circuit currents of the traction substation. In our opinion, the coefficient applied by us more clearly characterizes the specified influence in comparison with operating values or complex sizes of short-circuit currents.

(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, IEEE, 2019) Serdiuk, Tetiana M.; Kuznetsov, Vitaliy V.; Serdiuk, Kseniia; Nikolenko, Anatoliy V.; Kuznetsova, Yevheniia; Kuznetsova, Alisa
ENG: The automated method of measuring the time and amplitude parameters of code current and parameters of track circuits (input impedance of the track circuit, a characteristic impedance, a propagation constant) were elaborated. The mathematic model of track circuits’ channel of transferring code current was improved and considered in this paper. The algorithms of definition of parameters of track circuit are offered.
Integrated Use of Photovoltaic and Wind Power Plants in Power Supply Systems
(Springer, Singapore, 2022) Ostapchuk, Oleksandr; Kuznetsov, Valeriy; Bydko, Maryna; Kuznetsov, Vitaliy V.; Kuznetsova, Yevheniia
ENG: The use of energy from only one type of renewable energy source (e.g., solar and wind generation) leads to a significant increase in the cost of electricity supply due to the need to install a backup power source (energy storage system or power system). This phenomenon is caused by the significant dependence of these sources on weather conditions. The wind speed is less than 4 m/s for a long time in summer, and solar energy is not available at all in dark day periods, which in December can last up to 16 h. Accordingly, the effective use of such systems is possible only if constructing a complex application of several sources of different nature (solar and wind generation). This measure allows increasing their energy efficiency by 30–50%. The combined use of these types of distributed generation is accompanied by the equalization of the daily energy intake due to the spread of the annual maximums of energy intake, but the daily fluctuations remain pretty significant. As a result of the conducted researches, it is established that when using the share of solar energy at the level 0.4… 0.55 of the total amount, the shortest period of energy deficit (at the level of 8 days per year) is observed. At other ratios between the shares of solar and wind energy, the period of energy deficit will increase. In case of increased requirements for providing responsible consumers with electricity, it is advisable to use systems with buffer electricity storage. The developed mathematical models allow calculating the equipment parameters used in the construction of efficient power supply systems.
Investigation of Electromagnetic Parameters and Electromechanical Characteristics of a DC Machine Based on the Finite Element Method
(Видавничий дім «Гельветика», 2024) Kachura, Oleksii; Nikolenko, Anatolii V.; Kovalenko, Viktor; Kuznetsov, Vitaliy V.; Syanov, Alexander; Tsyplenkov, Dmytro; Kolychev, Sergei; Gurin, Yevgen
ENG: The verification calculation of the serial machine of direct current (DCM) MUN-2 with a modified excitation system based on the finite element method (FEM), which allows to investigate the characteristics and electromagnetic parameters of DCM taking into account new design solutions in static, quasi-static and dynamic modes of operation. The finite element model of the DCM can be combined with the chain model of the power supply based on the joint solution of the field and circuit equations, which makes it possible to investigate the characteristics of the engine in various modes when the anchor winding supplies signals of any shape. Based on the obtained results, the verification calculation of the DCM MUN-2 with a modified excitation system based on MSE allows the study of the characteristics and electromagnetic parameters of the DCM, considering new constructive solutions in dynamic modes of operation. The resulting DCM field model can be combined with the power source circuit model based on the joint solution of the field and circuit equations, which makes it possible to study the characteristics of the motor in different modes when feeding the armature winding with signals of any shape. The work established that the motor reaches the maximum rotation speed after 300 ms at a voltage of 120 V on the armature winding. At the same time, there is a surge in the starting current of the armature up to 2.0 A with subsequent stabilization at the level of 0.08 A. The starting torque reaches 1.2 Nm. The MUN-2 reaches the nominal rotation frequency at the nominal load, accompanied by an increase in the armature winding current to 0.7 A. During the operation of the motor, an electromotive force is induced in the armature winding, which, when the motor reaches the nominal rotation speed, stabilizes at the level of 20 V and has a peak character. Maxwell’s system of electromagnetic fields and analytical and mathematical methods for partial differential equations are used to solve the problems. The finite element method is used to solve the differential equations of the magnetic field.
Investigation of the Bifurcation Properties of the Dynamics of a Biological Population Based on a Logistic Model
(Springer, Cham, 2022) Busher, Victor; Chornyi, Oleksii; Kuzenkov, Oleksandr; Tryputen, Mykola; Kuznetsov, Vitaliy V.; Rumiantsev, Vladislav
ENG: The paper substantiates the structure of the model that describes the dynamics of subpopulations in the general ecological niche. Based on the theory of bifurcations, the results of experimental studies of the effect of excess electromagnetic radiation of worn out or repaired electromechanical equipment on biological objects are analyzed. Analysis of phenotypic changes in the biological test object of Drosophila melanogaster, identified over three generations, based on the bifurcation model, made it possible to identify trends in long-term forecasts, which are in good agreement with the known results of population development in unfavorable conditions.
Lyapunov Function in the Hyper-Complex Phase Space
(Springer, Singapore, 2022) Voliansky, Roman; Volianska, Nina; Kuznetsov, Valeriy; Sadovoi, Aleksandr; Kuznetsov, Vitaliy V.; Kuznetsova, Yevheniia; Ostapchuk, Oleksandr
ENG: The paper deals with the development of background for defining Lyapunov functions for a wide range of linear dynamical objects. This background is based on assuming that the Lyapunov function is redundant energy in the considered object, and this energy is dissipated only during controlled motion. We assume the full derivative of the Lyapunov function for an autonomous motion of the control objects equals zero, and we use its summands to define linear algebraic equations. The solution of these equations allows us to find unknown terms of the Lyapunov function. The use of these terms, while the Lyapunov equation is being written down, shows that the left-hand expression in the Lyapunov equation is equal to the zero matrix. Thus, we avoid subjective assuming of quadratic form terms in the right-hand of the Lyapunov equation. We extend the proposed approach to the class dynamical system with uncertainty. This extension is performed by using interval methods, which allow defining object motions for minimal and maximal values of parameters. We show that for the control object, which parameters are not exactly known, one should consider two equations of object motions, which correspond to its trajectories on the boundaries of the intervals. Lyapunov functions are defined for these boundary trajectories. Since such an approach increases the number of the considered equations, we offer to decrease them by using hyper-complex numbers while object equations are written down.

(Lithuanian Academy of Sciences, Vilnius, Lithuania, 2024) Kurliak, Petro; Tytiuk, Valerii; Chornyi, Oleksii; Kuznetsov, Vitaliy V.; Artemenko, Artem; Chorna, Olha
ENG: Due to their numerous technical and economic advantages, induction machines (IM) with squirrel-cage rotors are important components of many industrial processes. Their reliability, durability, and ease of operation make them indispensable in various industries, ensuring stable and efficient equipment performance. However, to minimise the risk of costly production failures caused by sudden stoppages, it is important to implement effective diagnostic and monitoring methods. The most common type of fault in squirrel-cage induction motors is the breakage of cage bars and end ring segments, particularly in motors with high inertia loads and frequent stops and starts. Regular maintenance and the implementation of modern control systems in the industry will help ensure the reliable and uninterrupted operation of these machines. In the technical literature, various diagnostic methods have been proposed. Some are based on analysing data collected from the induction motor (IM), detecting characteristic perturbations that indicate faults in the machine. Other methods involve comparing the data obtained from the actual induction motor with its digital model. It is clear that accurate and adequate IM models are necessary for the development and optimisation of fault diagnosis methods. This paper focuses on developing a mathematical model of an induction motor (IM) in a stator-fixed coordinate system, where the squirrel-cage rotor of the IM is represented as a multiphase, symmetrically distributed winding system in space. The adequacy of the obtained model is demonstrated. The developed model allows for the analysis of various types of asymmetries in both stator and rotor of squirrel-cage induction motors.
Method for Determining the Generating Capacity of the Waste Heat Recovery System of Main Engines
(Springer, Cham, 2022) Rak, Alexander; Busher, Victor; Glazeva, Oksana; Chornyi, Oleksii; Kachan, Yurii; Kuznetsov, Vitaliy V.
ENG: A study of waste heat recovery systems for robust ship power systems (tens of MW) and installations of relatively low power (1…3 MW) of diesel locomotives has been carried out. A method for calculating the power of gas and steam turbines as part of the waste heat recovery systems has been developed. Based on simple calculations for two operating points, the method allows you to get the amount of the waste heat recovery system generated energy in other modes, different from those given in the instructions for technical operation. Preference for one or another type of turbine generator or their combination should be provided based on a feasibility study, taking into account capital investments and the power of energy consumers in the vehicle, as well as long-term prospects in fuel-saving and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The waste heat recovery system's energy characteristics can be used to confirm the compliance of the main power plant with the requirements of the MARPOL 73/78 convention in terms of improving energy efficiency design index and reducing greenhouse gas emissions at loads of 50%, 75%, 100%.
Methods of Pulse Width Modulation in Cascaded High Voltage Frequency Converters
(IEEE, 2022) Busher, Victor; Chornyi, Oleksii; Tytiuk, Valerii; Glazeva, Oksana; Rozlutskyi, Oleksandr; Kuznetsov, Vitaliy V.
ENG: Purpose. The aim of this work is to compare the effectiveness of various methods for correcting cell failures in cascade high voltage frequency converters. These methods provide the smallest voltage drop on the motor, the least loads and oscillation of electromagnetic torque in an accident modes, and evaluate the effectiveness of pulse width modulation (PWM) methods with the injection of third harmonic and space-vector PWM in normal and emergency modes. Methodology. We use mathematical and geometrical interpretation of all analysed methods - Sinusoidal PWM (SPWM), Balanced sinusoidal PWM (BSPWM), Balanced PWM with injected 3rd harmonic (THPWM) and Balanced Space Vector PWM (SVPWM). Results. The method of balancing the phase-to-phase voltages by to such a shift of the zero point and rotation of the phase vectors, in which the amplitude of the phase-to-phase voltage decreases to the minimum possible value. Injection of the 3rd harmonic allows you to further increase the utilisation factor of power supplies in terms of voltage. But the violation of the symmetry of the phase voltages leads to the need to reduce the voltage amplitude to exclude saturation of the power supplies, which reduces this coefficient compared to the theoretically possible 15.6%. A distinctive feature of the method of balanced Space Vector PWM is that the amplitude of the 1st harmonic is always greater than the radius of the circle by 15.6%. Comparison of methods of space vector PWM (SVPWM), balancing of phase-to-phase voltage with the injection of the 3rd harmonic (THPWM) with sinusoidal PWM shows that SVPWM is the best method. Despite the more complex mathematical software for the implementation of this method, it provides the best performance in all considered emergency modes of 3...6 cascade converters. The Table of indicators for all methods are presented in the article. The use of a balanced SVPWM in combination with field oriented control makes it possible to obtain an electric drive in which, in the event of an accident, there are practically no shock mechanical and electromagnetic processes. After damage of cells the currents, electromagnetic torque and motor speed change along the required trajectory. © 2022 IEEE.
Model for a Direct Torque Control System of an Alternating Current Electric Drive for Urban Transport Rolling Stock Tasks
(Springer, Cham, 2022) Stopkin, Vasyl V.; Tryputen, Mykola; Nikolenko, Anatoliy V.; Kuznetsov, Vitaliy V.; Tryputen, Maksym
ENG: A mathematical model has been developed in the paper of the direct torque control (DTC) system of an alternating current (AC) electric drive for the tasks of the urban electric transport rolling stock, as an alternative to the existing types of frequency control of an induction motor, taking into account its relevance, principles of operation and causes of occurrence. During the research on the mathematical model of direct torque control of an induction motor on the MATLAB platform, its main disadvantages have been revealed, which limit the scope of its application. The main task of the DTC system is to identify the stator flux linkage, which is solved by integration with a certain accumulation of errors. The source of accumulated errors is the inaccuracy when determining the stator active resistance and its change during the induction motor operation. The DTC system is characterized by the disadvantage of torque pulsation occurrence and rotor speed fluctuations at low loads. The main advantage of the DTC system has been determined – high static and dynamic speed accuracy. The results of mathematical modeling and the presented sequence of studies are of practical value in the development and adjustment of complete electric drives with a DTC control system for railway transport mechanisms. New is a technical solution that acts as an alternative to a complex vector control system - this is the use of the DTC system for the tasks of the rolling stock of urban transport.
Modeling of Wind Speed Distribution in Urban Environment for the Application of Wind Energy Potential Estimation: Case Study
(UIKTEN, Serbia, 2025) Mykhailenko, Oleksii; Karabut, Nadezhda; Doskoch, Volodymyr; Burtseva, Olena; Kuznetsov, Vitaliy V.; Tsvirkun, Sergij; Kolomits, Hanna
ENG: When designing wind farms, the first stage is always an assessment of the target area wind energy potential. It is necessary to have a mathematical description of the wind speeds occurrence probability at the wind turbines potential location to do this. An analysis of relevant studies shows that the most effective approach to obtaining such dependencies is when the wind speed is taken as a random variable. In this case, wind speed distribution in the target area can be modeled using continuous probability distributions. This article is devoted to determining the typical probability distribution models for representing wind conditions in certain areas of the Dnipropetrovsk oblast (Ukraine), which can be used to estimate expected level of power generation by wind power plants. To obtain the data, a series of wind speed measurements were taken at three locations throughout the year. After that, frequency wind speed distributions with ranges of 0.2, 0.5, and 0.8 m/s were created from the obtained dataset and then approximated by continuous probability distributions. Frequency distributions were modeled by Weibull, Rayleigh, Nakagami, gamma, normal, log-normal, generalized extreme value, Birnbaum-Saunders, Wald and Rice continuous distributions. To determine the parameters of each type probability distribution, which is the most relevant to the frequency distribution, the maximum likelihood estimation method was used. To assess the accuracy of the models, the Pearson test, coefficient of determination and normalized root mean square deviation are used. The probability distributions quality is also evaluated graphically using Q-Q plots. The best fit to wind speed frequency distributions demonstrated by the Weibull probability distributions. A slightly lower accuracy was provided by the normal, Rice and Nakagami distributions than Weibull distribution. But in some cases, these distributions have even smaller error than the last one. Therefore, after detailed analysis and validation, they can also be used. The Rayleigh distribution had the worst accuracy, the Pearson test for it rejected the null hypothesis that the probability distributions correspond to the frequency distributions at all three locations. Additionally, the effect of the frequency distribution wind speed grouping range on the quality of maximum likelihood estimation of continuous distribution parameters was analyzed. It showed that the approximation accuracy decreases with increasing range.
Nonlinear Analysis of Bifurcatory Properties of Mathematical Model of Subpopulation Dynamics in the Case of a Single Niche for Subpopulation
(IEEE, 2022) Kuzenkov, Olexandr; Busher, Victor; Chornyi, Oleksii; Nikolenko, Anatoliy V.; Kuznetsov, Vitaliy V.; Savvin, Oleksandr V.
ENG: The article is devoted to the use of mathematical models of the dynamics of heterogeneous populations, and computer simulation based on the above models allows to identify general trends in subpopulations, predict the state of the system and obtain results on possible consequences of artificial intervention. Also, the use of mathematical models can predict the spread of genetic anomalies. The authors propose a model of subpopulation dynamics with a logistic function as a basic one. It is concluded that the system-wide dynamics of subpopulation processes depends not only on the reproductive potential of subpopulations, but also on the intrasystemic dynamics that objectively occur in such systems. The adequacy of the proposed mathematical model is proved. © 2022 IEEE.
On the Feasibility of Choosing Means of an Asynchronous Motor Protection in Industrial Conditions
(ScientificWorld-NetAkhatAV, Karlsruhe, Germany, 2023) Tryputen, Mykola; Kuznetsov, Vitaliy V.
ENG: The article is devoted to the urgent problem of choosing the means of protection of asynchronous motors (AM) operating in the shop electric networks of industrial enterprises with low-quality electricity. The well-known energy-economic model of an induction motor is presented in the form of a predicate disjunction, to which we apply the pattern recognition algorithm for making decisions. The main advantage of the predicate model is openness and the possibility of accumulating knowledge about the operating modes of electromechanical equipment. The practical implementation of training, adaptation, minimization of the predicate model and the search on its basis for the best option for protecting an asynchronous motor in high-level algorithmic languages involves the processing of large amounts of data. It is shown that elements of predicate equations can be represented as a relational data model and use operations - algebras for its transformations. The transformation procedures are easily integrated into the information and software structures of the automated enterprise management structure, which use database management systems oriented to relational models.

(Polish Society of Technical Diagnostics (Polskie Towarzystwo Diagnostyki Technicznej - PTDT), 2023) Druzhinin, Valeriy; Sivyakova, Galina; Kalinin, Alexey; Tytiuk, Valerii; Nikolenko, Anatolii V.; Kuznetsov, Vitaliy V.; Kuzmenko, Mykhailo
ENG: In recent years, due to the tightening of competition in the global market of steel producers, the requirements for the quality of hot-rolled steel have increased. The finishing group of the rolling mill is characterized by a complex structure of mechanical and electrical parts. The operation of electric drive systems of such units is characterized by the interrelation of electromagnetic processes, mechanical phenomena and technological factors. As experimental studies have shown, the quality of the supply voltage is inextricably linked with the impact nature of the loads in the rolling stands of the roughing and finishing groups of the hot rolling mill. A decrease in the supply voltage may be accompanied by the development of emergency modes of synchronous electric drives, leading to a decrease in the quality of the finished product.The paper developed a mathematical model of the power supply system of the rolling mill JSC "ArcelorMittal Temirtau". It is shown that this can lead to loss of synchronism of the synchronous motor. Such a voltage drop has a significant impact on the operation of DC electric drives of the finishing group. Various strategies are proposed to counter the development of emergency situations.
Study of Short Circuit Currents in a Distributed Traction Power Supply System with Renewable Electric Power Sources
(IEEE, 2022) Kuznetsov, Valeriy; Kuznetsov, Vitaliy V.; Bondar, Oleh I.; Rojek, Artur; Hubskyi, Petro; Stypulkowski, Piotr
ENG: The problems of changing short-circuit currents in a distributed traction system for using renewable energy sources were analyzed in the article. Literary sources analysis shows a further tendency for increasing the share of renewable energy sources in the total energy balance of the country and a particular increase in electricity consumption by electric traction. Goal. The main goal of the study is a method development with its practical application to impact estimation of power-boost points that connected to the traction network with energy using from renewable sources on short-circuit currents values. Methodology. The method that has developed in this study is based on well-known approaches for equivalent circuits of electrical equipment definition, but elemenst pair like «solar panel - inverter» it reproduces as EMF with equivalent resistance, which significantly simplifies further calculations. Results. The study results show that the application of power-boost points will not lead to a significant increase of short-circuit currents in the traction network even if the power of photovoltaic sources will be comparable with the power of existing converting units on traction substations. This is because of the physical nature of the photovoltaic panel and its power mode which usually closer to the current source with high internal resistance. Practical value. This also allows us to conclude that in most cases from the point of view of changing the short circuit currents the integration of power-boost points that are powered by solar power plants is quite possible with operating sections of the traction power supply system.
