Korean multi-propulsion system consists of a synchronous alternator driven by a gas turbine driving synchronous alternator coupled to a rectifier - DC link - DC/DC converter and traction system based on modification of the G7 high-speed train. The simulation modules include turbine engine system, alternator, rectifier, DC/DC converter and power management module. Simulation for the multi-propulsion system such as a modular is presented in order to confirm the system stability for loads with uncertain input impedances and control loop speeds. This paper deals with various simulation modules with a specific control loop to help the development of the real lame-scaled system.

As the on-board electric devices determine the performances of vehicles, production of reliable devices is important. To keep the reliability of devices constant, management of performance evaluation of the on-board devices is crucial. Because temperature has a serious effect on failures of the components of the devices, its measurement is the first step for good management. In this study, we described performance characteristics of domestic auxiliary block developed through G7 project. We measured the performances of auxiliary block during test running by the developed on-line measurement system. After we save the input real-time data from each signal of Korean High Speed Train through the network line, we can acquire necessary information through post-processing program. We verify the motor block characteristics of Korean High Speed Train by this system.

In case the problem came into the headlight composed of a bulb, lens and reflecting mirror, it has a sealed-beam type which must exchange all and semi-sealed beam type which can exchange only bulb. The headlight of train must be used at the time of going into tunnel and atmospheric phenomena such as heavy snow, rain and foggy as a rule, also it can be used with whistle blow when the dangerous article appears. In this study, general technical specification to improve headlight of the KTX and G7 high speed train is described throughout investigation technique of the industrialized country and headlight specification of train which is on commercial service.

Korean High Speed Train(KHST) has been tested on the high speed test line in Osung site of Korea High Speed Rail Construction Authority (KHRC). since it was developed as G7 Project Plan In 2002. This paper introduces the dynamic test devices in KHST and shows the comparison between the results of test and theoretical computing results which derive from the new model for KHST dynamic behavior. Previous computer simulation model for KHST was developed to review wether the vehicle system was satisfied with the dynamic performance requirements during the design procedure. But It should be applied the results of the parts test for suspension elements in order to compare between the results of computation and real test. Using VAMPIRE Program made by AEA Technology in UK. the new model also was modified. This paper shows that the static wheel loads calculated from new model is similar to test results. For test on high speed line, we prepared the test devices for evaluating the dynamic performances. which was consisted of the accelerometers( based on Kisler Co.) and the data aquisition systems (based on National instrument Co.), and test program coded by LabView 6i program. These lest devices and programs are flexible to extension the channels for adding sensors and connect to the ethernet network. The acceleration of car bodies, bogie frames and axle boxes were compared between the results of computation and test at 150km/. This paper shows that the results of test were high in high frequency band range but similar frequency band range. It might be considered that these differences were caused by the test which did not performed at constant speed for comparison analysis. Also. It will be able to understand the differences and make better results through a lot of tests planed in future.

Railway signaling systems consist of several vital computerized equipment such as CTC(Centralized Traffic Control), EIS(Electronic Interlocking System), ATC(Automatic Train Control) and so on. Currently, the project for development of railway signaling systems for the next-generation high-speed train is progressed according to the G7 project and railway signaling related several companies and research institute are joined this project consortium. The railway signaling systems, being developed in this project, called as a kTCS(Korean Train Control System), is composed of kTCS-CTC, kTCS-IXL, kTCS-ATC and etc. kTCS signaling systems have to be operated at the laboratory testing level as integrated signaling systems by interface between each railway signaling systems before railway field installation and revenue service. To solve this matter, communication protocols between each signaling equipment are designed and message codes for each defined protocols have defined. And also several equipment has developed for the railway integrated signaling systems for laboratory testing. We has plentifully tested and verified the designed protocols and the characteristics of integrated railway signaling systems with our developed each kTCS signaling equipment and communication protocols. In this paper, the integrated kTCS system including communication protocols is presented.

Through Korean high speed train development project "G7 Leading Technology Development Project" from 1996 to 2002, HSR-350X has been developed. It can run the maximum operating speed of 350 km/h. Based on this technology, KTX-2 which will be served commercially has been developed till 2007. This paper introduces the aerodynamic analysis of the High-Speed EMU and shows the results of optimized aerodynamic nose shape design techniques and clean pantograph panhead original techniques study. These are the important parts of developments for high speed train which maximum speed is 400 km/h. Especially for decrease of tunnel micro pressure waves, the optimized nose area distributions were derived and the characteristics of micro pressure wave were analyzed. The robust optimized pantograph panhead shapes investigated to improve the performance and decrease the vortex flow which is thought to be its noise source. These shapes are clean and robust to external disturbances like unsteady accelerated flow or side wind was derived. Finally aerodynamic performances was verified with PIV and smog visualization by wind tunnel test.

KTX will be operated on Kyun-Pu High Speed Railroad Line around end of 2,003 and KHST(G7 Korea High Speed Train) will be carried out the development running test at Kyun-Pu High Speed Railroad Line from middle of 2002. By the way, the conventional Ho-Nam railroad line was passed the limit capacity of transportation at some area from 1997. For solving of this matter, Ho-Nam railroad line need new high speed railroad line for high transportation capacity of passengers now. This report was studied about the rolling stock system design used new technology of KHST and KTX for Ho-Nam High Speed Railroad.

The study was carried out about the roof hood structure of power car for Korean High Speed Train. The compatibility for applied material and volume of hood duct was studied using analysis about heat and flow distributions. The materials and volume of duct were mainly determined by output air temperature and flow rate of each electric blocks. This report was described, which focuses on pressure distribution and air temperature within engine compartment of power car.
