ABSTRACT:
This method maintains a direct voltage at the input of a DC/AC voltage converter in order to maintain an asynchronous motor in a magnetised state, the input of the converter being connected to a DC supply bus of an electric vehicle, and comprises, in a free wheel mode during which the vehicle coasts and the bus is disconnected from a catenary:a) a step (76) for magnetising the motor, thenb) a step (78) for operating the motor as a generator of alternating voltage, thenc) a step (72) for stopping the converter when the direct voltage of the bus reaches an upper threshold, thend) a step (74) for maintaining the converter in the idle state as long as the direct voltage of the bus remains higher than a minimum direct magnetisation voltage of the asynchronous motor.
