Tram energy storage department factory operation job requirements

Can supercapacitor-based energy storage system be used on trams?

To solve technical problems of the catenary free application on trams, this chapter will introduce the design scheme of supercapacitor-based energy storage system application on 100% low floor modern tram, achieving the full mesh, the high efficiency of supercapacitor power supply-charging mode, finally passed the actual loading test [ 8, 9 ].

Why is energy storage system on trams important?

The energy storage system on the trams has been convinced to meet the requirements of catenary free tram network for both at home and abroad. This technology improves the technical level of domestic tram development greatly and promotes the development of China’s rail tram industry.

What is the energy storage system of catenary free trams?

On the basis of the research on the energy storage system of catenary free trams, the technology of on-board energy storage, high current charging and discharging and capacity management system has been broken through. The trams with the energy storage system have been assembled and have completed the relative type tests.

What is the basic configuration of 100% low floor trams?

The basic configuration of 100% low floor trams is five-car module; the whole train has two motor bogies and one trailer bogie. The vehicle shall meet the track parameters in Table 1. On the mainline and in the depot, the trams use supercapacitor to provide power.

Do modern trams use pure electric to drive?

Modern trams use pure electric to drive. Trams are currently new popular railway transportation products. They are convenient and environment friendly, comfortable and efficient. But since the overhead power network in some particular environment or section has an adverse impact on the landscape, it brings some difficulties to the line planning.

Why are modern trams favored in many cities?

The modern tram which is green, convenient, comfortable, less investment and simple approval has been favored in many cities. Application of catenary free technology in the modern trams removes bad influence of the catenary on the city landscape “visual pollution.” The modern tram has become a beautiful landscape in the city [ 1 ].
