A Study on Train Network and Control in Korea Tilting Train

초록

The Korean tilting train developed in this project is designed for a design speed of 200 km/h and a maximum operating speed of 180 km/h for bidirectional operation on the existing tracks in a power-distributed EMU type. The basic unit consisting of 3 cars constitutes a basic operating unit of 6 cars, which can be extended to an operating unit of 9 cars or 12 cars. A tilting train consists of 2 motor-control-power cars (Mcp), 2 motor cars (M), and 2 trailer cars (T & Th). The motor-control-power car has the driver's cab that controls various functions of the train, motor traction control equipment, and pantograph. The motor car has no driver's cab but generates motor traction and is used as the passenger compartment. The trailer does not have motor traction but has seats and passenger convenience facilities. The operating unit is composed in the order: Mcp - M - T - Th - M Mcp. The trailer car (T) of the experiment train has test equipment and a measurement room used to test and evaluate the train during test operations. Train control diagnosis system is an essential electrical part in the development of a high-speed train that can operate at a speed of up to 180km/h to resolve mid/long range transportation and inter-city traffic problems, using the existing tracks.
