This paper presents a network-based traction control system(TCS), where several electric control units(ECUs) are connected by a controller area network(CAN) communication system. The control system consists of four ECUs: the electric throttle controller, the transmission controller, the engine controller and the traction controller. In order to validate the traction control algorithm of the network-based TCS and evaluate its performance, a Hardware-In-the-Loop Simulation(HILS) environment was developed. Herein we propose a new concept of the HILS environment called the network-based HILS(Net-HILS) for the development and validation of network-based control systems which include smart sensors or actuators. In this study, we report that we have designed a network-based TCS, validated its algorithm and evaluated its performance using Net-HILS.

Electric locomotive is adapted to high speed driving and mass transportation due to obtaining high traction force. The electric locomotive is operated by motor blocks and traction motors. Train speed is controlled by suppling power from motor blocks to traction motors according to reference speed. Speed control of the electric locomotive is efficient by spending energy between motor blocks and traction motors. Currently, switched reluctance motors have been studied because the efficient is higher than induction motors. In this paper, model of the switched reluctance motor is presented and the PID controller is applied to the model for the speed control by using Simulink. Asymmetry converter is used for real-time control and system performance is demonstrated by simulating the speed of switched reluctance motor including PID controller.

In this paper, we proposed a selection and application recommendations of ZnO arresters for DC electric traction vehicles. To decide the Continuous Operating Voltage($U_C$), the Rated Voltage($U_r$), and the Nominal Discharge Current(In), we measured and analyzed system voltages and surge currents flowing the arrester installed on a DC electric traction vehicle under running state. System voltages measured up to 1,800 V in 1,500 V-system, and surge currents were recorded up to 3 times per a running-service-route and their magnitudes were ranges of $150A{\sim}2kA$. From these results and a standard EN50163, we could proposed $U_C$, $U_r$, and In available for the 1,500 VDC electric traction vehicles.

when electric traction system used DC 1500V runs on decline of rail road track and slows down, Dc voltage goes beyond regular voltage. In this case extra power is forcibly wasted by resister because rectifier of substation and electric train including power converter and so on are out of order. This paper described a DC electric railway system, which can generate the excessive DC power form DC bus line to AC source in substation for traction system. The proposed regeneration inverter system for DC traction can be used as both an inverter and an active power filter(APF). As a regeneration inverter mode, it can recycle regenerative energy caused by decelerating tractions and as an active power filter mode, it can compensate for harmonic distortion produced by the rectifier substation. In addition, electric traction system products harmonic current and voltage distortion and reactive power because power converter is used so regeneration inverter normally runs such as active power filter(APF) for improving power quality. From the viewpoint of both power capacity and switching losses, the system is designed on the basis of three phase PWM inverters and composed of parallel inverters, output transformers, and an LCL filter.

This paper described a DC electric railway system, which can generate the excessive DC power form DC bus line to AC source in substation for traction system. The purpose of this study was the development of the regenerative inverter system which suppress extra DC-line voltage and regenerate the energy instead of using a resister. That is Developed regenerative inverter system returns the regenerative energy from the DC line voltage to the utility. In addition, the inverter can be compensate the harmonics caused by the power conversion devices used in the DC traction system.

Recently, when electric traction system used DC 1500[Vdc] runs on decline of rail road track and slows down, dc voltage goes beyond regular voltage. In this case extra power is forcibly wasted by resister because rectifier of substation and electric train including power converter and so on are out of order. Therefore this paper proposes that the extra power is regenerated through regeneration inverter to AC utility in result this system obstruct to go beyond regular voltage and improve the efficiency. In addition, electric traction system products harmonic current and voltage distortion and reactive power because power converter is used so regeneration inverter normally runs such as active power filter(APF) for improving power quality.

In this paper a statcom is developed to improve the power quality in a dc traction system. The proposed statcom can be used as both inverter and active filter. As an active filter, it can compensate harmonic distortion and reactive power and as an inverter, it can recycle regenerative energy caused by decelerating trains. The simulation results are carried out by using PSCAD/EMTDC software.

누설전류는 의도된 회로 이외의 경로로 흐르는 전류를 말하며, 일반적으로 도시철도의 급전 시스템은 레일을 부극선으로 사용하기 때문에 레일이 대지와 완벽하게 절연되어 있지 않다면 레일을 통해 흐르는 전류의 일부는 누설전류로 땅속을 흐르게 된다. 이때 토양을 통해 누설 전류가 유출되는 레일과 지하매설 금속구조물에서 전식이 발생하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 국내 도시철도 운행지역 인근 지하매설 금속구조물의 전식방지 현황을 설문조사를 통하여 조사하였다.

전기철도는 전력공급시스템과 전기차로 구성되어 있다. 전기철도의 전기차는 대규모의 견인력을 얻을 수 있어 대량수송과 고속운전에 적합하다. 전기차는 모터블록과 견인전동기에 의해서 구동되며, 지령속도에 따라 모터블록에서 견인전동기에 전력을 공급하여 속도가 제어된다. 전기차의 속도제어는 모터블록과 견인전동기의 최소 에너지로 속도를 제어하는 것이 목표이다. 최근의 견인전동기는 직류 및 동기전동기에서 유도전동기를 사용하고 있다. 대부분의 유도전동기는 벡터제어기법을 사용하여 유도전동기의 속도를 제어한다. 본 논문에서는 유도전동기의 벡터제어기법을 이용하여 유도전동기의 속도를 제어하였다. Simulink를 이용하여 제어시스템을 모델링하고, PI 제어기와 Hysteresis 제어기를 이용하여 펄스를 제어하여 전동기의 속도를 제어하였다. 실시간 제어를 위해 IGBT 인버터를 사용하였고, 유도전동기 구동실험에 의해 시스템 성능을 입증하였다.
