electrodynamic braking การใช้
- As well locomotive was fitted with electrodynamic brake without recuperation.
- The units are also equipped with several brake systems-electrodynamic brake, ratchet parking brake and hydraulic and manual band brake.
- In addition the electrodynamic brakes can charge both a battery pack, as well as high capacity capacitors meaning that energy absorbed on deceleration can be reused later on.
- Heat dissipation is an issue as eventually all traction energy consumed by the train except the electric energy regenerated back into the substation during electrodynamic braking will end up in losses ( mostly heat ).
