PSCAD/EMTDCBased Modeling and Simulation of Urban Rail Transit Train Electrical Characteristics

Abstract:

Based on PSCAD/EMTDC,the paper first presents an objectoriented modeling method for urban rail transit vehicle electrical modeling,the model including the main propulsion system,brake resistors,filter circuits,auxiliary systems,resistance calculation,driving control and many other units.A vehicle simulation and test based on Shanghai Metro parameters were made with the model.The simulation data are consistent with the measured data,which proves the established simulation model to be able to simulate accurately the vehicles in different electrical characteristics and exercise characteristics.

Key words:urban rail transit; train electrical characteristics; power system computer aided design/electro magnetic transient in DC system （PSCAD/EMTDC)
