Interfaces Between CCS trackside and other subsystemsJoint sector research and validation for the specification of the electromagnetic compatibility
Sector involvement • Cross acceptance Working party • Collection and classification of national rules • CCS TSI editing including update of the “Interfaces Between CCS trackside and other subsystems” • Specification of target system • EMC Working Party • Contributing to the EMC target specification • Projects aiming in closing the EMC open points
Motivation of the sectorinvolvement • Requirements for the compatibility between vehicles and axle counters + track circuits for the authorisation of vehicles are currently an open point in the TSI CCS. • As a consequence national rules have to be followed today, in some cases national rules do not exist • The joint sector projects aim to • a reach broad European acceptance of the new limits • test specifications • provide the scientific input for the closure of open points related to the vehicle/train detection interface
Overview of EMC Project planning • 2010: partial validation of TS 50238-2 (vehicles and track circuits in the 15kV network) • 2011-?: validation of TS 50238-3 (vehicles and axle counters) • 2012-2014: closure of TSI CCS open points in FP7 4th call project proposal EUREMCO • 2013-2015: closure of TSI CCS open point “eddy current brake” – CTG project idea for FP7 5thcall
EMC phase 1 • TS 50238-2 establishes new vehicles emission limits and vehicle test methods for the compatibility with track circuits • funding provided by CER/EIM/UIC for the partial validation in the 15kV network • Tests have been carried out by DB, SBB and ÖBB with the support of Siemens • Test report expected by end of December 2010 • To be included in the CCS TSI at the next revision
EMC phase 2 • TS 50238-3 establishes new vehicles emission limits and vehicle test methods for the compatibility with axle counters • UIC applied for TEN-T co-funding for a joint validation campaign of 8 CER/EIM (UIC) members in all networks in 2011 • Expected outcome: • Validated list of practically relevant parameters • Susceptibility limits for axle counters missing so far • Validation of vehicle emission limits and vehicle test method of TS 50238-3 and proposal for improvements • Proposal for the quantification of other relevant parameters • Funding rejected – further strategy to be developed !!!
EMC phase 3 - EUREMCO • If positivelyapproved, EUREMCO will finalise the validation of the TS 50238-2 (track circuits) for DC 1,5kV, 3kV and AC 15kV/16,7Hz, 25kV/50Hz • Expectedoutcomes: • Set of test signals to test track circuits again transients • Clear definitions and specifications for the assessment of transients • Limits for the characteristic parameters of transients for both vehicles and power supply (sources) and track circuits (destination) • Clear understanding of the influence of the infrastructure on the conducted emissions of vehicles • Transfer function from test results within the same power supply system (for track circuits). • Requirements that rolling stocks will not disrupt track circuits on non-electrified lines
EUREMCO: EUropean Rail ElectroMagnetic COmpatibility • UNIFE appliedjointlywith 10 UNIFE/CER/EIM/UIC members for FP7 4th call co-fundingfor a projectin 2012-14 • Funding: €2,1m, Budget: €3,6m
Remaining open point:Eddy currentbrake • A CTG projectideawhich has been picked up by ERRAC in the « sectorwishlist » for the FP7 5th for a joint project of UNIFE/CER/EIM/UIC members in 2013-15 • Funding: open • Expectedoutcome: • Improve understanding of the interaction of the eddy current brake with the track and trackside signalling equipment • Identify critical thermal, mechanic and electromagnetic parameters and its related vehicle and trackside compatibility limits • Develop design, engineering and operational guidelines for new eddy current brakes and new trackside signalling equipment
Conclusion • Sectortarget – simplifiedvehicle autorisation through: • Harmonised EMC limits, both for signallingsusceptibility as well as for vehicleemissions • Harmonised test methodproving the vehicleconformitywith the specifiedlimits • Final goal – one assessement applicable for all networks compliantwith the INTERFACE document • Precondition: • Strongcooperation of all stakeholders: railwayundertakings, infrastructure managers as well as manufacturers (both of vehicles as well as of signalling)
