Energy management for hybrid energy railway vehicle

摘要

In a hybrid energy railway vehicle, a driving control device for railway vehicle is provided in which electrical storage means with characteristics suitable for each of a vehicle driving control device and a vehicle auxiliary power supply device are prepared, respectively, so that through exchange of power between these electrical storage means, optimal power management and vehicle performance improvement can be realized. First electrical storage means is provided at power converting means that supplies power to a motor for driving a vehicle, second electrical storage means is provided at power means that supplies power to an auxiliary power supply device for vehicle, and the first electrical storage means and the second electrical storage means are connected to each other by power level converting means so that power is exchanged between the first electrical storage means and the second electrical storage means through the power level converting means according to an operating state of the vehicle.
