SUPER-CAPACITOR BASED METRO TRAIN

electrical engineering

We can generate energy from most of the sources like solar, wind, hydro, coal as a fuel in plant etc. But in most there is cost problems for plant establishing, running, maintenance or availability of resources (fuels) which are going to be exhausted one day new generation of rapid transit trains requires a more effective energy management for reduction of energy consumption during the journey. In the country like INDIA where the population is growing up drastically now a day so it is necessary to control traffic in big cities of INDIA and also it is necessary to control of pollution in environment, so that’s why metro is the best way to reduce traffic and also these mass transit vehicle enable large reduction in terms of emissions. But this metro is not completely depended on electricity means to say that here the continuous supply will be eliminated which is use to drive metro with the help of overhead line. We also eliminated overhead line and other electrical equipment required in metro train system. We use to drive our metro with the help of super-capacitor, it is a type of battery with huge size and its very bulky as this capacitor unit required some more place to install it on train so that it will give continuous supply to motor. It having one time installation cost and maintenance cost is low with last long of its life. The super capacitor based metro train is one of the best achievement in future by seeing rapid consumption of coal and other fuel in present situation.
