Abstract

The article presents a method of calculation of the thermal state of the pantograph head. The density of the suspension zigzag distribution, taking into account a number of assumptions, has replaced the contact wire position function in the plan. Results of calculating the temperature of the pantograph head at different width of the zigzag of the typical suspension, including zero, are presented. The influence of sinusoidal and tangential contact suspensions on the temperature distribution of the pantograph head is estimated.
