Description
The project refers to the extension of Line 2 of the Athens Metro from Agios Antonios to Anthoupolis and in particular to traction power computation and design. The scope of the project is the line extension consisting of two stations, two traction power substations at Peristeri and Anthoupoli, as well as 1.5 km rail line. The particular purposes of this study are:
- to perform traction power simulation studies in order to size the substations at Peristeri and Anthoupoli;
- to compute, size and design all traction power equipment;
- to compute traction power cables through a heat dissipation study;
- to compute stray currents and propose measures to contain them within tolerable units;
- to design the complete power cables trajectory from substation to the trac
