Definitions

  • the invention relates to rail transport and, specifically, to designs of locomotives, in particular to designs of gas-turbine locomotives.
  • a gas-turbine locomotive which engine runs on compressed natural gas.
  • Gas tanks are arranged on the locomotive frame and occupy approximately a half of its length, having a significant weight ( US Patent No. 5129328 , IPC 61C 5/00, 1992).
  • a twin-unit gas-turbine locomotive that has a tender for heavy fuel oil, the tender being a separate tank car. Fuel is filled into the tank car at the temperature of +93 °C, and the tank walls are provided with heat insulation for the purpose of maintaining the temperature.
  • each of the two units is supported by two three-axle bogies having wheel pairs provided with traction engines.
  • One unit accommodates a power plant comprising a gas-turbine engine driving a traction generator and an auxiliary generator as well as a fuel system comprising a pump supplying fuel from the tender tank to combustion chambers of the gas-turbine engine.
  • the other unit accommodates a control cab and auxiliary equipment comprising an auxiliary diesel generator, a diesel fuel tank, a cooling system for the diesel generator, brake compressors, control apparatus.
  • the units are connected by power cables, control cables, two hoses for supplying cooling water, a pipeline for supplying diesel fuel necessary for starting the gas-turbine engine, brake hoses. (Article " Gas-Turbine Traction: History and Outlook", Locomotive Magazine No. 3, 2005, p. 41 )
  • a gas-turbine jet locomotive comprises a turbojet engine having a dual-fuel combustion chamber, a heat-exchanger - gasifier of liquefied natural gas that is heated by hot gas from the gas-turbine engine, cryogenic tanks for storing a liquefied gas either inside the body or on the roof of the locomotive ( RU Patent No. 225105 C1 , IPC 61C 11/06, 2005).
  • a twin-unit gas-turbine locomotive comprises two traction units, each being provided with a body comprising a frame, a control cab, bogies with motored wheel pairs.
  • One of the units accommodates a power plant comprising a gas-turbine engine driving a traction turbogenerator, an auxiliary turbogenerator and auxiliary equipment.
  • the other unit accommodates a cryogenic tank for cryogenic liquefied gas fuel and an auxiliary diesel generator.
  • the tank is arranged so as the center of gravity coincides (in the vertical axis) with the center of gravity of the unit itself, which precludes different loads on the bogies arising during offtake of fuel.
  • the tank and the power plant are separated by partitions from the control cabs ( RU Patent No. 2352484 C2 , IPC B61C5/00, 2007).
  • the inventive twin-unit gas-turbine locomotive comprises two traction units, each being provided with a body with a frame and a control cab and bogies with motored wheel pairs.
  • One of the units accommodates a power plant comprising a gas-turbine engine driving a traction generator, auxiliary equipment, a gas equipment package comprising a gas receiver and automatic control devices, an electric equipment compartment and other equipment necessary for ensuring locomotive motion.
  • the other unit accommodates a removable tank for liquefied natural gas (or another cryogenic fuel), a cryogenic equipment package with a cryogenic piston pump, a high-voltage electric equipment compartment and an auxiliary equipment compartment.
  • a heat-insulated cryogenic tank for storing LNG is made removable, has the size of a standard container and is arranged on an open floor and fixed by standard supports for a container.
  • the supports are equipped with special weight-measuring devices enabling to monitor fuel quantity in the tank both during stops and in motion.
  • a fuel is supplied to the cryogenic equipment package through a quick release coupling enabling to connect and disconnect a tank quickly.
  • a fuel is supplied from the cryogenic equipment package to the gas equipment package via a flexible inter-unit connection.
  • the twin-unit gas-turbine locomotive comprises two traction units 1 and 2 ( Figures 1, 2 ) that are provided with bodies 3 and 4 with frames 5, 6 and control cabs 7 arranged at the opposite ends of the gas-turbine locomotive.
  • the frames 5, 6 of the units 1 and 2 are installed on bogies 8 with wheel pairs equipped with traction electric motors 9.
  • the body 3 of the unit accommodates a power plant 10 comprising a gas-turbine engine 11, a traction turbogenerator 12, an electric equipment compartment 13 including traction rectifiers 14, a high-voltage chamber 15 with an axial fan, a gas equipment compartment 16.
  • a compartment for a battery 17 is under the frame 4 of the unit 1, between the bogies 8.
  • the body 4 of the unit 2 is subdivided into two compartments, i.e., the front one 18 and the rear one 19, a removable tank 20 is arranged between these compartments, on an open floor.
  • the tank is fixed to the frame 6 of the unit 2 with standard supports 21 for containers that prevent it from moving and ensure reliable fixation.
  • the supports 21 are equipped with special weight-measuring devices 22.
  • Quick release couplings 23, which are accessed through a doorway 24 at the wall of the rear compartment 19 of the body 4, are connected to the rear end of the tank 20.
  • the rear compartment 19 accommodates a cryogenic equipment package 25 comprising a cryogenic piston pump 26, a cryogenic pipeline system 27 and a high-voltage chamber 28.
  • the front compartment 18 accommodates braking system equipment, equipment of a microprocessor system for locomotive control and an electric power transmission system for the unit 2.
  • a compartment with two centrifugal fans 29 for cooling the traction electric motors 9 is provided below, under the frame 4 and between the bogies 8.
  • the units are connected by two cryogenic inter-unit pipelines 30.
  • flexible metallic buses 31 are used that are arranged on the roofs of the bodies 3 and 4.
  • traveling platforms 32 with door blocks 33 are arranged at the rear end walls of the unit bodies.
  • the gas-turbine locomotive can be operated as follows.
  • the cryogenic quick release couplings 22 are connected to the tank 20.
  • a cryogenic fuel passes through the quick release couplings 22 to the cryogenic piston pump 26 and, via the pipeline system 27 through the inter-unit pipelines 30, is fed to the gas equipment package 16.
  • There the cryogenic fuel is gasified and supplied via the pipelines to the gas-turbine engine of the power plant 10.
  • the gas-turbine engine 11 is started with an electric starter 34 arranged thereon. After start, the gas-turbine engine drives the rotor of the traction turbogenerator 12. Electric current, as generated by the turbogenerator 12, comes to the traction rectifiers 14 in the compartment 13.
  • Rectified current from the traction rectifiers 14 comes to the high-voltage chamber 15 in the unit 1 and, via the inter-unit metal buses 30, to the high-voltage chamber 28 in the unit 2. This current comes from the chambers 15 and 28 to the traction electric motors 9.
