In this paper, the low-cost drive circuit of dc motor for a multipurpose small-size electric vehicle is developed. In order to change smoothly the rotating direction of dc motor for traction, the operating sequence of both the field current and the armature voltage according to the angle of a pedal of vehicle is suggested. The simulation study is carrier out to verify the proposed method, and the control system is implemented with 8-bit AVR.

Recently metropolitan local governments is actively introducing urban railway's expand and light rail transit as a means of new transport system. DC electricity feeder system operating in the domestic urban railway is typically a feedback circuit consisted of the contact wire and electric railway vehicle via rail. But stray current is to be defined as a current flowing on a structure that is not part of the intended electrical circuit with respect to a given structure. Stray current is generally results from the leakage of return currents from large DC traction systems that are grounded or have a bad earth-insulated return path. At the place where the current leaves the rail and metallic structures, electrolytic corrosion may take place. This paper presents comparison analysis of field test methods based on criteria of electrolytic corrosion protection of buried metallic structures adjacent to DC traction systems.

The plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) are specialized hybrid electric vehicles that have the potential to obtain enough energy for average daily commuting from batteries. The PHEV battery would be recharged from the power grid at home or at work and would thus allow for a reduction in the overall fuel consumption. This paper proposes an integrated power electronics interface for PHEVs, which consists of a novel Eight-Switch Inverter (ESI) and an interleaved DC/DC converter, in order to reduce the cost, the mass and the size of the power electronics unit (PEU) with high performance at any operating mode. In the proposed configuration, a novel Eight-Switch Inverter (ESI) is able to function as a bidirectional single-phase AC/DC battery charger/ vehicle to grid (V2G) and to transfer electrical energy between the DC-link (connected to the battery) and the electric traction system as DC/AC inverter. In addition, a bidirectional-interleaved DC/DC converter with dual-loop controller is proposed for interfacing the ESI to a low-voltage battery pack in order to minimize the ripple of the battery current and to improve the efficiency of the DC system with lower inductor size. To validate the performance of the proposed configuration, the indirect field-oriented control (IFOC) based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) is proposed to optimize the efficiency of the AC drive system in PHEVs. The maximum efficiency of the motor is obtained by the evaluation of optimal rotor flux at any operating point, where the PSO is applied to evaluate the optimal flux. Moreover, an improved AC/DC controller based Proportional-Resonant Control (PRC) is proposed in order to reduce the THD of the input current in charger/V2G modes. The proposed configuration is analyzed and its performance is validated using simulated results obtained in MATLAB/ SIMULINK. Furthermore, it is experimentally validated with results obtained from the prototypes that have been developed and built in the laboratory based on TMS320F2808 DSP.

Current of DC traction systems flows from the positive busbar of the substation, through the overhead contact system, to the vehicle, and returns through the running rails. Because the rails are not very effectively insulated from the earth a certain amount of current flows into the earth, especially in the area near the load and depots. At the place where the stray current leaves the rail and pipe, corrosion may take place. In this paper we introduce the electrolytic corrosion protection methods of depots using silicon rectifier for the rail.

본 논문은 현재까지 전적으로 수입에 의존하던 국내 교류 전동차용 추진제어장치(Converter/Inverter)를 대용량 IPM 스위칭 소자를 적용하여 개발된 시스템을 제안한다. 컨버터의 용량을 향상시키기 위해 2대의 PWM 컨버터를 병렬 운전하고 병렬 운전 시 각각의 컨버터 스위칭 각을 다르게 제어하여 고조파 함유를 줄였으며 DC-Link 단의 Beatless 제어를 수행하였다. VVVF 인버터 제어의 경우, 저속의 운전영역에서는 순시 토크 제어가 가능한 백터제어를 적용하고, 고속 운전 영역에서는 슬립 주파수제어를 적용하는 백터 제어와 스칼라 제어의 병용 제어기법을 제시하였다. 제시된 추진제어장치는 4대의 210kW 유도전동기를 이용하여 철도차량용 추진제어장치에 적용되는 관련 규격의 각종 시험을 통해 그 성능을 검증하였다.

Switched reluctance machine has much attention because of high efficiency, high power and DC series torque characteristics with a traction drive. But the motor has to have a regenerative mode when it is adopted in an electric vehicle. A current divergence during the regeneration makes difficulties in the control of SRM. This paper proposes a reference current limitation strategy for a stable regeneration based on simulations and experimental tests. The motor is operated with conventional current limit and switching angle control method in motoring mode. Simulations and experiments are executed to verify proposed method.

Recently, interest in environmentally friendly transportation systems has been increasing, and study on railway systems has been aggressively conducted. Therefore, lots of studies have been done in railway advanced countries to improve performance of PWM converter. The research on the PWM converter for railway vehicle was mainly carried out on the converter mounted on railway vehicle such as the high-speed railway and metropolitan railway. In also, a lot of study has been carried out to improve converter performance installed in the ground. The high-capacity transform used in this paper converted from AC 22.9kV to AC 590V. The converter changed from AC 590V to DC 950V. In general, in the case of rectifier, the DC power supply system has a negative impact on inverter control characteristics because it can not avoid the pulsating component. In this study, it was performed current control for high-capacity converter using Matlab Simulink. The PWM converter is normally performed through the voltage and current at starting mode, powering mode, and braking mode. In the light-load test and the on-line test, we have studied for the PWM converter characteristics. Using this research, we have founded that the converter has excellent performance.

DC electricity feeder system operating in the urban railway is typically a feedback circuit consisted of the contact wire and electric railway vehicle via rail. But stray current is flowed on a structure that is not part of the intended electrical circuit with respect to a given structure. This paper presents comparison analysis of field test cases based on criteria of electrolytic corrosion protection of buried metallic structures adjacent to DC traction systems. As a result of it, we confirmed that measurement methods are different from each other about the same tests. Therefore measurement methods to prevent electrolytic corrosion need to establish electrical facilities standards to be applied domestic.

스위치드 릴럭턴스 전동기는 고출력, 고효율 및 직권전동기 구동특성 등으로 견인구동용으로 주목받고 있다. 그러나 전동기를 4상한 구동하기 위한 발전영역에서 제어는 쉽지 않다. 본 논문은 전류제한법에 의해 안정된 발전제동이 가능한 제어방식을 제안하였다. 전동기 구동시는 기준전류제한방식과 위상각 제어방식으로 속도제어를 행하고, 발전제동모드에서는 상전류가 발산하지 않는 조건을 산정하여서 이 값을 기준전류로 한 전류제한방식을 채택하였다. 시뮬레이션과 실험에 의해 제안한 방식의 타당성을 확인하였다.
