The objective of the project was to study if the network can be extended without the need for extra substations, simulate the impact of the new line L96 in the city center and simulate the energy requirements of the new vehicles.
Model of the DC traction network. The following problems are solved with the simulation tool: - Is the voltage of the contact wire within the values defined in EN50163? - Are new substations needed in the University extension? - Which is the effect of changing the actual fleet for new vehicles? - Which is the maximum temperature of the contact wire? - How many substations are overloaded adding the new L96 in the city centre?
