DESIGN & DEVELOPMENT :

AC-AC DEMU POWER DISTRIBUTION

Diesel Engine is the main source of power. It is a turbo

powered 4 stroke, 12 cylinders, and 1600 HP engine.

Traction Alternator converts rotary motion into

electrical power. It is coupled directly to Engine.

6 Pole, 3 phase, Star connected bush-less alternator.

Rectifier unit is mounted on the alternator. Cooling air

passes through rectifier and then to alternator.

3 phase, full wave bridge rectifier.

Rectified Output (DCLV) connected to Traction

Control Cubicles TCC1 and TCC2 via DCLIS & DC

link Switches

TCC has got three phase modules to generate 3 phase

AC. The on-board computer generates VVVF output.

Each TCC power up two traction motors. The traction

motors are 3 phase induction motors.

When DPC is set to motoring, VCC (vehicle control

computer) energises DCLS1 and DCLS2.

VCC Sends PWM signal to exciter field.

When exciter field gets modulated supply, alternator

generates 3 phase AC and is rectified by the rectifier.

Both TCC draw current through DCLS1, DCLS2 &

generate 3 phase variable voltage & variable frequency.

TCC output (variable voltage & frequency) is

connected to TMs (3 phase induction motors).

When driver changes notch to move DPC:

TCC decides the frequency and then voltage required for

the new torque.

Accordingly TCC adjusts the switching sequence &

timings of the IGBTs

The Generated 3 phase AC voltage is applied to traction

motors

TCC computes torque developed by Traction motors and

sends this value as a torque feedback

VCC compares this with Torque required and send new

torque requirement to TCC

The cycle repeats till torque required = torque feed back

Brake Chopper is a protecting device.

It shorts the DCLV whenever its voltage is more than

set limit.

APC (aux power control) takes supply from DC Link

and it generates: 415 V AC and 110 V DC

Power transmission in conventional DEMU is AC-DC-

DC.

o Engine + Alternator + Rectifier + DC TMs.

Power transmission in the new DEMU is AC-DC-AC.

o Engine + Alternator + Rectifier + Traction Converter +

AC Traction Motors.

Low impact exercise for elders’ back pain :

Many senior citizens have a made up thought that pain is

just a natural part of aging and it is not a curable one.

This belief is not 100% correct. Only a few back

problems need some medical management. Most of the

back pains are recoverable well through prompt

progressive back exercises at home itself by adopting a

few lifestyle modifications.

Back care exercises for elders are as follows:

Preparatory exercises:

This initial phase is meant for warm up and prepares the

soft tissue structures for core exercises.

Pain relieving cum stretching exercises :

Naturally, muscle shortens along with aging progress and

keeps unused. Stretching exercises are very essential to

lengthen the core muscles. Consistently doing these

exercises will help to maintain the range of movement

and maintain flexibility of the spine and aid in pain relief.

Strengthening /Spinal stabilisation exercises:

These exercises not only strengthen the muscles

surrounding the spine but also strengthen the abdominal

muscles and hip muscles to reduce the pain level

gradually.

Relaxations exercise:

Though it is a last one, relaxation practice has got much

importance. It not only relaxes the tensed muscles but

also relaxes the mind. Hence if necessary, it should be

performed whenever the body feels tired.

Note: If the pain is acute, stick to bed rest for a brief

period, provide immediate pain relieving physiotherapy

and then do the exercises. Therapeutic exercises are

individualized. It should be tailored based on causes cum

other factors. Hence get prior prescription from the back

care experts and get prompt guidelines from a therapist.

Other common precautions are:

Do the exercises in the prescribed dose.

Gradually increase the repetitions.

Number of repetitions should be equal on both sides.

Don’t do in a bouncing way.

Stop exercise if you feel any tingling /discomfort while

doing exercise.

Know to find the difference between the stretching

discomfort and pain.

Breathing notes: Synchronization of movement with

breathing is well for more therapeutic benefits.

Invest some time to learn the exercise/periodical review

from a competent physiotherapist.

Keep ever in mind “Exercises are also medicine”.

Okay! Here are the common exercise programmes for

elders with back pain due to common degenerative cause.
