Abstract
In dual traction power supply systems, the overhead catenary system operates in different power supply modes. It passes across the AC section, DC section, and a neutral part, which influences the features and properties of the feedback current and aggregates its effects on stray current and rail potential. This research paper presents an integrated model of an AC and DC traction power system (TPS), along with a unified chain equivalent circuit model, the ground wire through the AC section, and the insulation joints fixed in the AC–DC neutral section under different operating positions. To make a unified impedance and admittance matrix for traction network, a virtual conductor wire has been added in the DC section to make the balance order of the TPS. The influence of reflex system configuration on rail potential, stray current, and distribution of rail potential at AC and DC stations has also been calculated. The simulation results demonstrate that establishing the insulation joints in the AC–DC section and using ground wires in the AC part can significantly decrease the stray current and rail potential.

Article types:
• Papers. Reports of original research work.
• Design notes. Brief contributions on current design, development and application work; not normally more than 2500 words (3 journal pages), including descriptions of apparatus or techniques developed for a specific purpose, important experimental or theoretical points and novel technical solutions to commonly encountered problems.
• Rapid communications. Brief, urgent announcements of significant advances or preliminary accounts of new work, not more than 3500 words (4 journal pages). The most important criteria for acceptance of a rapid communication are novel and significant. For these articles authors must state briefly, in a covering letter, exactly why their works merit rapid publication.
• Review articles. These are intended to summarize accepted practice and report on recent progress in selected areas. Such articles are generally commissioned from experts in various field s by the Editorial Board, but others wishing to write a review article may submit an outline for preliminary consideration.
