The article discusses a method for determining the axle box generator efficiency. The generator is installed in the axle box of the freight car. It is driven by a wheels pair. The axle box generator provides power supply to freight car systems: diagnostics, geolocation and telemetry. To determine the efficiency, an indirect method of determining the mechanical power transmitted to the axle box generator is considered. The electromagnetic torque is determined through the induction electric drive model parameters of the generator. The article describes an experimental unit. It consists of a test generator, an induction electric drive, and an open platform frequency converter. The converter control system was created in MexBios Development Studio software. Oscillograms of generator tests are presented.
