Capacity Configuration and Energy Control Strategy of Stationary Super Capacitor Energy Storage System of Urban Rail Transit

Article Preview

Abstract:

The installation of super capacitor in urban rail transit system allows the recovery of the braking energy for increasing the energy efficiency as well as a better pantograph voltage profile. An energy control strategy of the energy storage system which is suitable for the urban railway transit is proposed in this paper. Then, the methodology of capacity configuration is put forward based on the simulation platform in Matlab environment. Ultimately, the capacity configuration results of super capacitor energy storage system are determined based on parameters of an actual metro line under different traffic conditions.
