Abstract

Since railway transportation is one of the greenest and safest ways for carrying passengers and freight, investigation on improving the performance of its sub-systems can be in line with requirements of industry. One of the most important sub-systems of each vehicles is its driving part. Due to smoothness of wheel and rail, comparing moving car on road, moving on rail needs more less energy. But this low friction can cause wheel slip and wheelspin. Rising the wheel slip more than a certain value, will cause decrement in acceleration and damages wheel and rail, so the control of wheel slip has a special importance. Therefore having a model of train’s speed control system equipped with wheel slip control can be useful. In this paper after literature survey of wheel slip control, by combining the movement equation and using an adhesion observer the mechanical part of system is obtained. For driving the induction motor of drive system, field oriented control is choose. By combining the mechanical part, induction motor and its drive the complete model is presented. By simulation in different operation points the performance of presented model is validated.
