Railway converter station linked to medium-voltage direct current (mvdc) distribution system and simulation method thereof

Abstract

A simulation system of a railway system for a Medium-Voltage Direct Current (MVDC) distribution network includes: a computing device which stores a simulation program including a converter station model configured to simulate a converter station included in the MVDC distribution network and a train operation model configured to simulate an operation state of a train that is supplied with power from the converter station and runs; a converter controller which controls a DC/DC converter included in the converter station model; and a Hardware In the Loop Simulation (HILS) device which performs a simulation based on the converter station model, the train operation model, and the converter controller. Herein, the converter station model and the train operation model are executed in software by the HILS device, and the converter controller is connected to the HILS device and driven to control the converter station model.
