Аннотация:Increasing the utilization rate of regenerative braking energy in rail systems is one of the ongoing applications increasing in significance in recent years. In rail systems, braking is made with two ways, mechanical and electrical. While the energy released due to mechanical braking cannot be recovered, the energy released due to electrical braking can be reused as regenerative braking energy. This regenerative braking energy varies according to the dynamics of the system and it can be given back to the grid, stored in storage devices or burned in resistors (it is not desired). This study develops a novelty algorithm within the scope of this objective and provides the calculation of the regenerative braking energy recovery rate and then making a decision for storage or back to grid of this energy. Afterwards, the regenerative braking energy was calculated with the help of this algorithm for Eskisehir-Ankara and Ankara-Eskisehir trips in two different passengers (load) scenarios, using the YHT 65000 high-speed train, which was chosen as a case study. Then, with a decision maker added to this classical regenerative braking energy algorithm, it will be decided whether this energy will be stored or forward back into the grid for the purpose of providing non-harmonic energy to the grid.
