In electric motor coaches, the rolling stocks move by the adhesive effort between rail and driving wheel. Generally, the adhesive effort is defined by the function of both the weight of electric motor coach and the adhesive effort between rails and driving wheel. The characteristics of adhesive effort is strongly affected by the conditions between rails and driving wheel. When the adhesive effort decreases suddenly, the electric motor coach has slip phenomena. This paper proposes a re-adhesion control algorithm which uses the maximum adhesive effort by instantaneous estimation of adhesion force using load torque disturbance observer. Based on this estimated adhesive effort, the re-adhesion control Is peformed to obtain the maximum transfer of the tractive effort.

This paper describes the evaluation of structural integrity and dynamic characteristic of inertial load test equipments for performance test of railway vehicle propulsion control system. The propulsion control system of railway vehicle has to be confirmed of safety and reliability prior to its application. Therefore, inertial load test equipments were designed through theoretical equation for performance test of propulsion control system. The structural analysis of inertial load test equipments was conducted using Ansys v11.0 and the dynamic characteristic was evaluated using Adams. The results showed that the structural integrity of inertial load test equipment was satisfied with a safety factor of 10.2 on the bearing part under combined load. Also, the structural stability of flywheel according to dynamic simulation was secured by the maximum oscillation displacement within 0.83mm.

In this paper, a magnetic analysis of SRM(Switched Reluctance Motor) using 3d finite element method considering end-coil effect is presented. SRM models with different stator pole shapes are taken into consideration for the analysis of magnetic characteristics. It is observed that a stator pole shape model having a pole shoe depth is the most suitable one for railway traction application because it gives an improved inductance and torque characteristic. For a speed control of SRM, the PI and sliding mode controllers are applied to designed SRM with magnetic characteristic data obtained from the magnetic analysis. The simulations are carried out using Matlab-Simulink and the control performance is analyzed. By employing the sliding mode controller, the transient response as well as the steady-state error are much improved under a load variation of railway resistance under operation.

국내 철도 변전소의 부하전력은 부하인 철도차량의 부하특성에 의해 고조파와 역률이 매우 좋지 못한 실정이다. 이러한 이유에서 철도변전소에는 고조파를 보상하기위한 고조파 저감설비와 역률을 개선시키기 위한 역률보상용 콘덴서와 같은 전력품질개선설비(FACTs) 들이 설치되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 철도차량 부하의 차량별 고조파 특성을 살펴보고, 이를 효과적으로 제어할 수 있는 방법을 제안하였다. 제안된 알고리즘은 고조파저감설비의 위상제어를 통한 역률 향상을 도모하기 위한 것으로 일반적인 밴드패스 필터를 사용한 고조파 전류성분 검출에 따른 제어방식과 달리 고조파 전류에 대한 Lyapunov 안정도에 기반을 둔 제어방식을 적용하여 빠른 전류제어 동특성을 같도록 제안하였고 시뮬레이션과 실 부하 계통에 설치하여 운용함으로 그 타당성을 입증하였다.

본 논문은 철도부하의 이동을 고려한 전력조류계산 알고리즘에 기반하여, 에너지 저장장치를 설치하였을 때 철도계통의 영향 해석에 관한 논문이다. 철도부하는 위치적 변화 뿐 만 아니라 기동-타행-제동의 운전모드의 변화에 따라 전력소비 패턴이 달라지는데, 제동 시에 발생하는 회생에너지를 에너지 저장장치를 이용하여 활용함으로서 에너지 절감 효과 및 가선전압 안정화를 구현할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 서울지하철 2호선의 실계통에 대한 사례연구를 수행하여, 실계통에 에너지 저장장치를 적용함으로서 그 필요성을 증명하였다.

The parallel-feeding operation of an AC traction power supply system has the advantages of extending the power supply section and increasing the power supply capacity by reducing the voltage drop and peak demand caused by a train operation load. On the other hand, the parallel-feeding operation is restricted because of the circulating power flow induced from the phase difference between substations. Moreover, the power supply capacity is limited because of the unbalanced substation load depending on the trainload distribution, which can be changed by the train operation along the railway track. This paper suggests a Thyristor-controlled Phase Angle Regulator (TCPAR) to reduce the circulating power flow and the unbalanced substation load, which depends on the phase difference and the trainload distribution and provides a feasibility study. A dedicated control model of TCPAR is also provided, which uses substation power supplies as the input to control the circulating power flow and an unbalanced substation load depending on the phase difference and the trainload distribution. Simulation studies using PSCAD/EMTDC shows that the proposed TCPAR control model can reduce the circulating power flow and the unbalanced substation load depending on the phase difference and the trainload distribution. The proposed TCPAR can extend the parallel-feeding operation of an AC traction power system and increase the power supply capacity.

This study investigates the characteristics of environmental impact from the construction phase of a high-speed railway through a Life Cycle Assessment method based on the materials used and the energy consumption of the equipment used according to the design statement. The results reveal that the contributions to environmental impact in the construction sector of a high-speed railway were 89% for civil engineering, 7% for the track system, 2% for stations and 2% for the energy and telecommunication system. In particular, the highest contribution to the impact in the civil engineering category were 54% for Global Warming, 25% for Abiotic Resource Depletion and 8% for Photochemical Oxidant Creation. The main influence factors were the use of remicon and cement. In future, the application of Life Cycle Assessment for the construction sector of railway construction will introduce efficient reduction methods according to the quantitative calculation of environmental impact.

도시철도 DC 급전시스템은 부하전류가 사고전류보다 클 수 이는 특징을 가지고 이다. 이러한 이유로 DC 급전시스템에서는 di/dt를 측정하여 사고전류를 부하전류로부터 구분하고 있다. 이것은 사고전류의 di/dt와 부하전류의 di/dt는 서로 다른 상이한 특성을 보이고 있기 때문이다. 본문에서는 DC도시철도급전시스템에서 흔히 사용되는 di/dt 계전기와 이의 설정을 위한 사고전류의 분석 및 설정방법에 대해 알아본다.
