There have been many changes in Subway train types since SeoulMetro opened the Line No.1 in 1974. Propulsion control device has changed many times following the generations of control method from resistance control method which uses large resistor for the traction motor control to chopping control which uses power semiconductors and finally to inverter control. Railroad vehicle propulsion control device refers to devices such as converter/inverter which supply power for subway operation, power conversion equipment like small switching-mode power supply and traction motor. In this paper, we will analyze every part of railroad vehicle propulsion control device of SeoulMetro so we can find problems in the subway operation. And we will present propulsion control device model which makes minimized failures, efficient maintenance possible when replacing railroad vehicle later. By doing this, we hope to ensure stability and improve energy efficiency to the top.

One of main functions of the firing control system applied to a rocket propulsion test has been to provide electric current for ignition of a solid rocket motor. This paper describes the design and implementation of an enhanced firing control system for ground propulsion test that can also control and verify various types of squib events and flight sequences.

The Propulsion System Test Complex(PSTC) was constructed for the verification test of each stage's propulsion system of KSLV-II. Main Control System(MCS) is the system to operate the onboard equipment and the ground equipment of the PSTC simultaneously. This paper describes the critical design, the development status, and test results of Main Control System. The MCS will be used for the interface connection between ground control systems and onboard equipment. Test sequence and operation process of the Work Manager will be conducted by MCS.

Solid propulsion systems have simple structures compared to other propulsion systems and are suitable to long-term storage. However the systems generally have limits on control of thrust levels. In this paper we suggest control algorithms for combustion chamber pressure of variable thrust solid propulsion systems using special nozzles such as pintle valve. For this we use a simple pressure change model by considering only mass conservation within the combustion chamber, design a classical algorithm and also a nonlinear controller using feedback linearization technique. Derived thrust equation and designe a thrust control model. We design the proportion-integral controller for linearizing about operating point. We also demonstrate the performance of controller model through numerical simulations.

The closed cycle diesel propulsion system is free from the problem of the intake air, exhaust gas and their control that are associated with the conventional diesel propulsion system. The system is composed of a main engine, an exhaust cooler. a $CO_2$ scrubber and a $O_2$ mixer. In this paper, a hardware using microprocessor is proposed in order to monitor and control the oxygen and ratio of specific heat for underwater diesel propulsion system. Also simulation is carried out to ascertain the performance of proposed system.

The TBO of main unit of propulsion control devices on high-speed railway vehicles proposed by the makers is appropriated 10 years cycle, but the maintenance of internal device are proceeding before coming to the particular period of time. In the Future, increasing of the failure probability occurred by increasing train service and obtaining spare parts are predicted that it would be difficult. the propulsion control devices develop is needed in other to the ease maintenance, cost savings and ensuring related domestic technologies when considering operating on long term of high-speed railway vehicles. In this paper, we proposed development a way that current-controlled type propulsion control devices using the newest power semiconductors which is easy to supply and demand through identifying performance and characteristics of existing current-controlled type propulsion control devices of high-speed railway vehicles.

This paper describes a construction scheme of hot backup or triple modular redundancy control system in a ground hot-firing test facility to carry out performance assessment of propulsion system used in a space launch vehicle. It was possible for a hot backup redundancy control system with manual operated console to simulate TMR control system. A console layout of control system in control center to restrict imprudent works of operators was proposed.

In this paper, the propulsion control of a high-speed maglev train is studied. Electromagnetic suspension is used to levitate the vehicle, and linear synchronous motors (LSM) are used for propulsion. In general, a low-speed maglev train uses a linear induction motor (LIM) for propulsion that is operated under 300[km/h] due to the power-collecting and end-effect problem of LIM. In case of the high-speed maglev train over 500[km/h], a linear synchronous motor (LSM) is more suitable than LIM because of a high-efficiency and high-output properties. An optical barcode positioning system is used to obtain the absolute position of the vehicle due to its wide working distance and ease of installation. However, because the vehicle is working completely contactless, the position measured on the vehicle has to be transmitted to the ground for propulsion control via wireless communication. For this purpose, Bluetooth is used and communication hardware is designed. A propulsion controller using a digital signal processor (DSP) in the ground receives the delayed position information, calculates the required currents, and controls the stator currents through inverters. The performance of the implemented propulsion control is analyzed with a small maglev train which was manufactured for experiments, and the applicability of the high-speed maglev train will be explored.
