This study focuses on the application of the PEM Fuel Cell(PEMFC) hybrid system, which includes a regenerative braking system with supercapacitor(SC) and battery. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the characteristics of regenerative energy and to propose solutions to increase regenerative energy via vehicle simulation. To achieve this target, we set the rated motor speed to 3,000/2,500/2,000 rpm. Because the flywheel is directly connected to the motor, the generator activates regenerative braking by using the rotational momentum of the flywheel when the flywheel reaches the set speed after the motor stops. We could then measure the characteristics of regenerative braking of voltage, current, power, energy change, etc. Meanwhile, we calculate the storage efficiency of the SC or the battery. Our results show that the SC stores 18% of the regenerative energy, while battery stores 15% of the energy. Since the regenerative energy decreases with the decrease of the motor rotating speed that 5,027 J and 2,915 J are restored at 3,000 and 2,500 rpm, respectively. The experimental results also prove that regenerative braking energy is able to be obtained if and only if the speed of flywheel is over 2,500 PRM, and the efficiency of the system can be further improved.

In this paper, a regenerative braking algorithm is proposed to make the maximum use of the regenerative braking energy for an independent front and rear motor drive parallel HEV. In the regenerative braking algorithm, the regenerative torque is determined by considering the motor capacity, motor efficiency, battery SOC, gear ratio, clutch state, engine speed and vehicle velocity. To implement the regenerative braking algorithm, HEV powertrain models including the internal combustion engine, electric motor, battery, manual transmission and the regenerative braking system are developed using MATLAB, and the regenerative braking performance is investigated by the simulator. Simulation results show that the proposed regenerative braking algorithm contributes to increasing the battery SOC, which recuperates 60 percent of the total braking energy while satisfying the design specification of the control logic. In addition, a control algorithm which limits the regenerative braking is suggested by considering the battery power capacity and dynamic response characteristics of the hydraulic control module.

In these days, the researches about hybrid and fuel cell electric vehicles are actively performed due to the environmental contamination and resource exhaust. Specially, the technology of regenerative braking, converting heat energy to electric energy, is one of the most effective technologies to improve fuel economy. This paper developed a regenerative braking control algorithm that is considered vehicle stability. The vehicle has a inline motor at front drive shaft and has a EHB(Electo-hydraulic Brake) system. The control logic and regenerative braking control algorithm are analyzed by MATLAB/Simulink. The vehicle model is carried out by CarSim and the driving simulation is performed by using co-simulation of CarSim and MATLAB/Simulink. From the simulation results, a regenerative braking control algorithm is verified to improve the vehicle stability as well as fuel economy.

The electric railway is a clean and energy saving system, because it requires relatively less energy than automobiles by transporting the same passengers or goods. Six thousands of vehicles are operated on Korean urban transit system. This system is 95% of regeneration system. Especially, the VVVF-Inverter vehicle has a merit of the highest regeneration rate. Energy consumption is 90% for traction and 10% for auxiliary supply. Braking energy is about 40% of energy consumption. Up to 40% of the tractive power of vehicles capable of returning energy to the power supply can be regenerated during braking and that this energy can be used to feed vehicles which are accelerating at the same time. The energy generated by braking vehicle would simply be converted into waste heat by its braking resistors if no other vehicle is accelerating at exactly the same time. Such synchronized braking and accelerating can not be coordinated, the ESS(energy storage system) stores the energy generated during braking and discharges it again when a vehicle accelerates. This paper presents field tests about the energy saving rate of the developed ESS. when the ESS is on/off, energy saving rate of the ESS is tested. The verification test in the field focused on energy saving.

In tread braking of freight cars, braking force is produced by the friction between the wheel and the braking shoe. Friction coefficients such as the brake power, weight variation and brake shoe types should be sensitively treated as the design parameters. The conditions of the car, empty and weighted, should also be taken into consideration in brake force design and the control of brake force has some limitations in terms of the brake system design so that the brake materials selection should be considered as important measures to solve that difficulties. Friction characteristics of brake materials should remain within the range of maximum and minimum value and the friction performance should remain stable regardless of braking time and temperature. This study presented an experimental evaluation method to secure optimum braking performance by keeping safe braking effect and braking distance by the friction coefficient of the brake shoe of the freight cars.

Disc brakes and brake linings are part of the braking system in automobiles; this system works due to the braking power between the disc and pad. Vehicle braking systems have complex environments due to the geometry of the disk and pad, the material properties, the braking conditions, etc. Braking energy is converted into thermal energy during the braking process, due to the frictional heat between the disc brake and pad. This heat is changed to a heat flux, which affects the thermal stress of the disc. The purpose of this study was to use the fluid dynamics software ANSYS CFX to investigate the inner flow characteristics of the air and the heat transfer of the disc, and to analyze the effects on the thermal stress of the disc brake.

To start or stop the train safely within the limited traveling distance, it is necessary to guarantee the proper traction or braking force. Presently, most trains are run by the electrical power and have adopted a combined electrical and mechanical(friction) braking system. In order to design a good traction or a brake system, it is essential for designers to predict the traction or brake performance. In this paper, the traction/coasting/braking performances analysis program has been developed and verified by comparing the simulation results with on-line test results of the Korean high speed train(HSR-350); Both results match very well. Consequently, the designers can predict the traction/coasting/braking performances of trains by using the proposed program under various operating conditions.

The brake system is very important part of the machine working. If the machine can't be stopped, it would be serious accident. It is the same as the ship. The mooring winch brake hold the ship in harbor. But sometimes it appeared the excessive stress and brake lining would be broken. So it is necessary to change the shape of brake system with improve the braking power. This study carried out research on optimum design like as moved the position of link pin or modified the thickness of brake band and lining.
