Abstract:

The electric phase of electrified railway constitutes a no-power zone, which hinders the energy transfer in each power supply area, is not conducive to the recovery and utilization of regenerative braking energy, and greatly affects the railway operation efficiency. In order to reduce the railway operation cost, the railway power conditioner (RPC) is connected in the electric phase, and the RPC DC link is convenient for the hybrid energy storage system (HESS) to access. On this basis, an optimal operation strategy of traction power supply system (TPSS) is proposed in this paper. By controlling the charge and discharge of HESS, the load peak is reduced and the braking energy is recovered, so as to realize the peak cutting and valley filling of traction load. The model aims to minimize the total operating cost of TPSS, and takes HESS charging and discharging power as decision variables. Furthermore, the nonlinear function in the model is linearized to obtain the mixed integer linear programming model, and then CPLEX is applied to obtain the charging and discharging strategy of HESS and the power purchase scheme of TPSS. Finally, based on the measured data, the cost-reduction effect of the proposed model is analyzed. Compared with the existing TPSS, the daily operating cost of the TPSS is significantly reduced after the HESS and RPC are connected, which provides a basis for the optimization operation of the TPSS.
