바이모달트램용 종합제어장치(VCU)의 구성 및 적용

Bimodal tram with the hybrid propulsion and low floor is a new and beneficial vehicle for the public transportation which is good for both the convenience of the weakness and the prevention of the green house effect. Bimodal tram consists of a complicate electrical and mechanical systems. Each system does not operate with independent but with cooperative. So, we need a synthetic control management system for managing all system effectively. This paper has investigated the configuration and functions of VCU(Vehicle Control Unit) installed inside of bimodal tram which plays variable roles including the apparatus control and the condition monitoring.
