Abstract

The AC railway system is quite differing from the general electric power system because it is single- phase and intermittently heavy loads. Thus, inevitably power quality problems are occurred in the AC railway system, i.e. voltage regulation voltage sags, voltage imbalance, and harmonic distortion. Recently, the power quality of the AC railway system becoming a hot issue because it is affect the control and safety of high-speed traction. In addition it is also affect the power quality of the electric power system. In this paper, single-phase Unified Power Quality Conditioner(UPQS) for the AC railway system is proposed to compensate the voltage sags and harmonic distortion. The configurations and control schemes of the proposed single-phase UPQC are presented. The effectiveness of the proposed single-phase UPQC application is verified by the PSCAD/EMTDC simulation works. It can be shown that the application of UPQC in the AC railway system is very useful to compensate the voltage sags and harmonic distortion from the results of related simulation works.

전기 철도계통은 기존 전력계통과 달리 단상, 대용량 부하로 필연적으로 전압강하, 전압불평형 및 고조파 왜곡 등의 전력품질의 문제가 발생한다. 최근 철도계통의 전력품질문제는 철도차량 및 시스템의 제어 및 안전 때문에 중요한 화두가 되고 있다. 이는 또한 기존 전력계통의 전력품질에도 영향을 미친다 본 논문에서는 전기철도 급전시스템에 발생하는 전력품질문제의 보상에 관한 연구를 수행하고자 한다. 이를 위해 국내 교류전기철도 표준 급전방식인 AT(Auto Transformer)급전시스템, 철도급전변압기인 스콧트 변압기(Scott Transformer), AT변압기, 철도선로 및 철도 차량부하를 모델링 하였다. 과도응답은 전자기과도해석 프로그램인 PSCAD/EMTDC를 사용하여 해석 하였다. 또한 전력품질을 보상하기위한 방안으로 급전선-전차선에 설치되는 전력품질보상기(Unified Power Quality Conditioner : UPQC)를 제안하였고 이의 성능 및 유효성을 시뮬레이션을 통하여 확인하였다.
