The locomotives of the SŽD series ТЭ10 (German transcription TE10) of the Soviet Railways (SŽD) are wide-gauge diesel locomotives with diesel-electric power transmission, which were mainly used in freight train service. When the first locomotive was delivered, the ТЭ10 was the most powerful single-frame diesel locomotive in the world. Derived and revised variants of the ТЭ10 were built until the end of the 1990s. Almost 10,000 locomotives with almost 20,000 sections were built, making this family of locomotives one of the largest in the world. Newer series have a mechanical part that is the same as the 2ТЭ116 series , but in contrast to this series are characterized by the direct current traction generator.

history

The locomotives were built in 1957 in the Kharkov locomotive factory as a further development of the SŽD series ТЭ3 with the main difference being a newly developed 12-cylinder engine, which had a higher output than the 10-cylinder engine used in the ТЭ3 . In addition to the two additional cylinders, exhaust gas turbocharging and thus a higher boost pressure also ensured increased performance . The locomotive also received a self-supporting box , although this construction was abandoned in the further developments of the ТЭ10.

The prototype was made by the Kharkov locomotive factory in 1958 as ТЭ10-001. From 1958 to 1961 the series locomotives followed, which had some small improvements compared to the prototype. The equipment with the 10D100 diesel engine, which was improved compared to the 9D100 engine of the prototype and again had 10 cylinders, can be described as a significant improvement.

The locomotives were used in freight and passenger train service on non-electrified lines of the USSR and were a series that was valued by drivers and workshop staff because of its ease of use and robustness. The front of the locomotive was similar to that of the M62 ( DR V 200 , Taiga drum ) later used in Central Europe . However, due to the smaller box cross-section, these had a less powerful engine.

The locomotives were first used on the Kuibyshev Railway , administered from Samara , and later on the North Caucasian Railway . On January 1, 1976, all the locomotives except one were on the southern railroad , in what is now Ukraine , where they were mainly used in heavy shunting. In the 1980s, most of the locomotives were scrapped, in 1990 only three locomotives were left in stock, which are probably no longer in service today or have been converted into multi-part series.

The ТЭ10-006 is preserved in its original condition in the Railway Museum in Lubny .

technical description

The ТЭ10 is a locomotive with two three-axle bogies. The superstructures with the two end driver's cabs form a self-supporting unit with the welded floor frame. The driver's cabs are separated from the engine room by strong partition walls. In this, the diesel engine with the main generator is arranged in the middle.

The diesel engine used was the 10D100, a 12-cylinder two-stroke diesel engine with 3,000 hp. In addition to the two additional cylinders, a higher boost pressure was used to increase performance . The diesel engine is connected to the main generator via a flexible coupling. The diesel engine and generator are mounted on a welded engine support frame.

The six tatzlager drive motors were switched with a new type of output control, in which the diesel engine output and the output of the power transmission system mutually influence each other through additional control elements. This control system ensures that the diesel engine is well utilized and prevents the diesel engine from being subjected to excessive loads if a cylinder fails or if the fuel conditions change. The drive switch has 15 speed levels.

Although only 26 of the ТЭ10 were built, it has proven itself as the basis for numerous other variants. The following SŽD series were developed on the basis of the ТЭ10:

  • 2ТЭ10 - a double locomotive for freight transport, built in 19 copies
  • ТЭП10 - a single locomotive with a maximum speed of 140 km / h for passenger transport, built in 335 copies
  • 2ТЭ10Л - a double locomotive for freight traffic from the Luhansk locomotive factory , built in 3192 copies. In this series, instead of the self-supporting box, a construction with a floor frame and non-self-supporting structures was used, which was similar to the ТЭ3 built in the same factory . The Л in the series designation stands for L ugansk.
  • ТЭП10Л - a single locomotive with a top speed of 140 km / h, built in 218 copies
  • 2ТЭ10В - a double locomotive for freight transport, built in 1898 copies. It consisted of the main components of the 2ТЭ10Л, which were built into the mechanical part of the 2ТЭ116 . The locomotive was characterized by the unsealed locomotive body and the bogies without axle brackets. The В in the name stands for В орошиловград (German: Voroschilowgrad ), the name of Lugansk at that time
  • 3ТЭ10В - prototype of a three-part locomotive for freight transport, built in a single copy, two sections of a 2ТЭ10В were supplemented with a central section without a driver's cab
  • 2ТЭ10M - an improved variant of the 2ТЭ10В double locomotive for freight transport, built in 2444 copies. The M in the name stands for M odernisiert.
  • 2ТЭ10МК - a double locomotive for freight transport, built in 20 copies. The locomotives are the same as the 2ТЭ10M series, but were equipped with the 5D49 diesel engine from the Kolomna locomotive factory used in the 2ТЭ116 . The К represents K olomna.
  • 2ТЭ10Г - a prototype of a three-part locomotive for freight transport, built in 2 copies. The locomotive could run on both diesel and natural gas . The natural gas was liquefied and carried along in containers in the non-powered middle section. The Russian G (Г) in the name stands for G as.
  • 2ТЭ10С - a double locomotive designed for heavy freight traffic and climatic conditions on the Baikal-Amur Mainline , built in 3 copies
  • 2ТЭ10У - a double locomotive for freight transport, built in 555 copies. Compared to the 2ТЭ10M, the locomotive has improved electrics and a revised diesel engine that is more fuel-efficient when idling
  • 3ТЭ10У - a three-part locomotive, built in 79 copies. The locomotive consists of the two sections of a 2ТЭ10У supplemented by a middle section without a driver's cab
  • 2ТЭ10У Т - a double locomotive for passenger transport, built in 100 copies. The locomotive is similar to the 2ТЭ10У, but is designed for a top speed of 120 km / h.
  • 2ТЭ10УП - a double locomotive for industrial railways, built in only 2 copies
  • 3ТЭ10М - a three-part locomotive, built in 639 copies. The locomotive consists of the two sections of a 2ТЭ10M supplemented by a central section without a driver's cab
  • 4ТЭ10С - a four-part locomotive, built in 25 copies, like the 2ТЭ10С but supplemented with two central sections without a driver's cab
