Abstract
In order to improve the efficiency of the main transformer in a tilting train, the optimal operation of a cooling system is necessary. For the development of the optimal control algorithm of a cooling system, the mathematical model of a main transformer cooling system was developed. This includes the dynamic model of a main transformer, an oil pump, an oil cooler and a blower. The system algorithm of a cooling system, which consists of the temperature setpoint algorithm and the temperature control algorithm, was developed. Optimal oil temperatures of the inlet and the outlet of the main transformer were obtained by considering the total electric power consumption of the system. The oil inlet temperature was controlled by the blower and the oil outlet temperature was controlled by the oil pump. A simulation program was developed by using the mathematical model and the system algorithm. Simulation results showed that the system algorithm developed from this study may be effectively used to control the main transformer cooling system in a tilting train.
