A Study of Propulsion System Operating Characteristics of Tilting Train

초록

The traction and control systems are the core electric components of the train which consist of converter/ inverter, motor, and main transformer. The control method of the conventional railways can be divided into the resistance control method, chopper control method, and VVVF inverter control method depending on the control method. The motor car needs to have high capacity and speed characteristics. Diverse control systems have been used according to the characteristics of the motor car to control such characteristics properly. The control system for motor traction has improved along with the advances in power semiconductor elements.
