The invention relates to a
system for recovering
vehicle braking energy in
urban rail transit, which comprises a first direct-current high-speed switch, a charging circuit unit, a super
capacitor array, a discharging circuit unit, a
variable pressure stabilizing unit, a second direct-current high-speed switch, a DC / AC converter, an alternating-current high-speed switch and an ACU auxiliary
control unit; when the vehicle brakes, the
system determines the
storage energy in the
supercapacitor array through the ACU auxiliary
control unit and switch with a major loop in real time. Compared with the prior art, the
system effectively utilizes energy and reuses the recovered energy in
air conditioning or lighting, etc. inside the
carriage; the system solves the network
voltage fluctuation problem of the prior vehicle regenerative braking
energy recovery, and forms an
energy recovery closed-
cycle control system of the vehicle itself as the main body; in addition, the system cannot
impact the network
voltage, but only absorb the energy of the self motor
train unit; as the
supercapacitor used by the system has small size, the management and control of the power source is easier, and the installation mode is more flexible.
