DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

Technical solutions according to embodiments of the present disclosure are described clearly and completely hereinafter in conjunction with drawings used in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Apparently, the described embodiments are only some rather than all of the embodiments of the present disclosure. Any other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present disclosure without any creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.


Reference is made to FIG. 1, which is a flowchart of a method for tractive force distribution for a power-distributed train according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The method may include the following steps S101 to S105.


In step S101, a current motor car of a target train is determined.


A power-distributed train generally includes multiple cars, which includes several motor cars and several trailer cars. Power of the power-distributed train is distributed to the motor cars. Therefore, effective adhesion weight of the power-distributed train is greater than that of a power-concentrated train, which facilitates utilization of the tractive force.


A motor car refers to a rail transit car with a tractive force.


A trailer car refers to a rail transit car without a tractive force, which is to be towed by a car with a tractive force.


A power-distributed train generally includes multiple motor cars. Therefore, when the motor cars are analyzed, a current motor car is to be determined. Then, the current motor car is analyzed.


In step S102, parameter information of the current motor car is acquired.


According to the present disclosure, the acquiring the parameter information of the current motor car includes acquiring a mass, a current acceleration, a current resistance, a current tractive force and a structural dimension of the current motor car.


According to the present disclosure, the velocity of the train may be acquired from a velocity sensor on each of driving axles or on a traction motor, the acceleration of the train may be calculated by performing a differential operation on the velocity of the train by a controller, the mass of a motor car may be acquired by a car weighing system, the tractive force of a motor car may be calculated by a traction control unit, and the resistance of a motor car may be calculated from the velocity of the train and the mass of the motor car using a resistance equation of the train. Therefore, the above variables are all known.


The driving axle refers to an axle for transferring a tractive force.


In step S103, axle load transfer at four axles of the current motor car is calculated based on the parameter information.


According to the present disclosure, the axle load transfer at the four axles of the current motor car is calculated by considering two cases, which include a case where the motor car is in a rest state and a case where the motor car is in a traction state. The axle load transfer at the four axles of the current motor car is calculated based on the condition of the current motor car in the rest state and the condition of the current motor car in the traction state.


In step S104, current axle loads on the four axles of the current motor car are calculated based on the axle load transfer at the four axles of the current motor car.


In step S105, distribution of tractive forces of the four axles of the current motor car is performed based on the current axle loads on the four axles using an electrical control compensation technology.


According to the present disclosure, in the process of optimizing distribution of the tractive forces of the axles of the current motor car based on the current axle loads of the four axles using the electrical control compensation technology, a greater axle load transfer at the current axle indicates a decreased axle load on the axle, in which case a tractive force distributed to the current axle is decreased; on the contrary, a smaller axle load transfer at the current axle indicates an increased axle load on the axle, in which case a tractive force distributed to the current axle is increased, thereby preventing idling of the axles, such that the tractive force is utilized to a maximum extent.


With the method for tractive force distribution for a power-distributed train according to the present disclosure, distribution of the tractive forces of the four axles is performed using the electrical control compensation technology, such that an output torque of a traction motor with a decreased axle load decreases based on a decrease amount of the axle load, and an output torque of a traction motor of the axle with an increased axle load increases based on an increase amount of the axle load. Therefore, the output torque of the traction motor matches with the axle load, thereby optimizing adhesion utilization, such that the total tractive force is utilized to a maximum extent.


In the present disclosure, a vertical force of the car is transferred via a spring between a wheel-pair and a bogie as well as a spring between the bogie and a car body, and a horizontal force is transferred via a bearing box of a driving wheel and a central support.


In the present disclosure, it is assumed that tractive forces at wheel rims of the driving wheels of the car are the same.


In a case where the target train is in the rest state, gravity of the current motor car is calculated based on the mass of the current motor car, and each of the axle loads on the four axles of the current motor car is equivalent to a quarter of the gravity.


As shown in FIG. 2, in a case where the motor car is in the rest state, both a force applied by a front coupler of the current motor car and a force applied by a rear coupler of the current motor car are zero. In this case, axle loads Pi on the wheel-pairs are uniformly distributed, each of the axle loads Pi is equal to a reactive force Ni from the steel rail, and is equivalent to ¼ of the gravity Gi of the motor car:

In a case where the target train is in the traction state, as shown in FIG. 3, the calculating the axle load transfer at the four axles of the current motor car based on the parameter information includes the following step S301 and step S302.


In step S301, the force applied by the front coupler of the current motor car, the force applied by the rear coupler of the current motor car, and the gravity of the current motor car are calculated based on the mass, the current acceleration, the current resistance and the current tractive force of the current motor car.


In step S302, the axle load transfer at the four axles of the current motor car is calculated based on the force applied by the front coupler of the current motor car, the force applied by the rear coupler of the current motor car, the gravity of the current motor car, and the structural dimension of the current motor car.


Groups of the power-distributed train may be organized in various forms. Generally, six cars are organized into one group. In the present disclosure, a subway train where six cars are organized into one group is described as an example, and other group organizations can be acquired by analogy. Generally, the subway train where six cars are organized into one group may have the configuration where one group includes 3 motor cars and 3 trailer cars, 4 motor cars and 2 trailer cars, or 6 motor cars and 0 trailer car. The configuration where one group includes 6 motor cars and 0 trailer car is most typical, and the trailer car in other configurations can be considered as a special motor car with no tractive force. Therefore, the following analysis is based on the configuration where one group includes 6 motor cars and 0 trailer car.



FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram illustrating analysis of forces applied to a subway train where one group includes six cars. Meanings of variables in FIG. 4 are as follows.


M1, M2, . . . , M6 are reference numerals representing the motor cars; f1, f2, . . . , f6 represent resistances of the motor cars, respectively; F1, F2, . . . , F6 represent tractive forces of the motor cars, respectively; f12, f23, . . . , f56 represent forces applied by couplers between motor cars, respectively; weights of the motor cars are represented by m1, m2, . . . , m6, respectively; the velocity of the train is represented by v, and the acceleration of the train is represented by a.


Based on the Newton's second law and the analysis of forces applied to the cars, the forces applied by the front couplers and the forces applied by the rear couplers of the motor cars can be acquired and represented by the following equations 1 to 5.

f12=F1−f1−m1a  (1)
f23=f12+F2−f2−m2a  (2)
f34=f23+F3−f3−m3a  (3)
f45=f34+F4−f4−m4a  (4)
f56=f45+F5−f5−m5a=F6f6−m6a  (5)


The Forces applied by couplers between motor cars can be calculated based on the above equations 1-5, and are defined to be in a forward direction with respect to a following car, as shown in FIG. 4. In fact, since M1, which serves as the head car, is subject to a great air resistance, the force f12 applied by the rear coupler of M1 is actually in a backward direction relative to the following car. Therefore, f12 is negative.


The force applied by the front coupler of the i-th motor car and the force applied by the rear coupler of the i-th motor car of the power-distributed train with any group organization can be derived based on the above equations 1 to 5, and can be expressed by the following equations 6 and 7.

f(i−1)i=(F1+F2+ . . . +Fi−1)−(f1+f2+ . . . +fi−1)−(m1+m2+ . . . +mi−1)a  (6)
fi(i+1)=(F1+F2+ . . . +Fi)−(f1+f2+ . . . +fi)−(m1+m2+ . . . +mi)a  (7)


In the present disclosure, the current axle loads on the four axles of the current motor car are calculated based on the axle load transfer at the four axles of the current motor car. In a case where the train is in the traction state, forces applied to the car body and the bogie are as shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6. Taking the car body as an isolated body, the torque at point B is expressed by the following equation 9.
