Fig. 3 is a flowchart of a method for controlling an auxiliary converter of a rail vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 3, the method of controlling the auxiliary inverter of the railway vehicle according to the embodiment of the present invention at least includes steps S1-S3. The rail vehicle comprises N carriages, wherein N is an integer larger than 1.
And step S1, acquiring the current value required by the whole vehicle.
Specifically, the whole vehicle main control device can determine the whole vehicle required current value according to the running working condition of the vehicle, and start the whole vehicle required current value to the whole vehicle bus. And then the integrated controller of the auxiliary converter of each compartment can obtain the current value required by the whole vehicle through the bus.
And step S2, sequentially authorizing the integrated controllers of the N sections of car converters according to a preset sequence so as to sequentially control the corresponding converters to output auxiliary currents.
Specifically, the preset sequence may be a sequence of physical positions of the cars, such as car 1, car 2, car 3 … to car N, or an authorized sequence may be set according to odd and even numbers of the cars to improve the balance of the start of the auxiliary converter, or a start sequence of the auxiliary converter may be set according to other requirements or specific situations.
For example, when the auxiliary converters need to be started, the auxiliary converters of N cars are controlled to be started according to a preset sequence, for example, the integrated controller of the auxiliary converter of car 1 is authorized to start the auxiliary converter of car 1, when the current required by the whole car cannot be met, the integrated controller of the auxiliary converter of car 3 is further authorized to drive the integrated controller of the auxiliary converter of car 3 to start the auxiliary converter of car 2, and so on, the auxiliary converters of odd cars can be set to be started first, and then the auxiliary converters of even cars can be started. Alternatively, the starting may be performed in the order of the cars, or in another order, and the preset order is not particularly limited herein.
And step S3, until the total auxiliary current value reaches the total vehicle demand current value, or until the converters of the N carriages are all started.
Specifically, when the auxiliary converter is started, the currently authorized integrated controller obtains a total auxiliary current value, and when the total auxiliary current value reaches a current value required by the whole vehicle, the subsequent auxiliary converter is not required to be started; or, if the currently authorized integrated controller determines that the output current value of the auxiliary converter corresponding to the carriage exceeds the set auxiliary current threshold value of the carriage, the currently authorized integrated controller determines that the total auxiliary current value cannot reach the required current of the whole vehicle, and then the currently authorized integrated controller continues to request the starting of the auxiliary converters in sequence until the required current of the whole vehicle is met. Or the converters in the N carriages are all started, and then warning is carried out or the load of the whole vehicle is requested to be reduced.
According to the method for controlling the auxiliary current transformer of the railway vehicle, the integrated controller in each compartment controls the current transformer of the corresponding compartment to start, the communication between the compartments is realized through a bus, namely, a plurality of independent controllers of each compartment are integrated, the auxiliary current control is realized based on the integrated controller of each current transformer, the corresponding current transformers are controlled to start according to the preset sequence, the mutual communication between the independent controllers can be reduced, the control is realized through the integrated controller of each compartment, the response speed is improved, and the working modules of the compartments are adjusted according to the power supply responsibility, so that the working efficiency of the whole vehicle is improved.
Further, in some embodiments, authorizing the integrated controllers of the N car converters according to the preset sequence to sequentially control the corresponding converters to output the auxiliary current may be implemented in the following manner. Specifically, the integrated controller of the nth car converter controls the converter of the nth car to start, and when the current value of the auxiliary current output by the converter of the nth car exceeds the current threshold value of the converter of the nth car, a current request is sent to a bus, wherein N is an integer and is less than or equal to N. The integrated controller of the (n + 1) th car converter receives the current request, controls the (n + 1) th car converter to start, and sends the current request to the bus when determining that the auxiliary current value output by the converter of the (n + 1) th car exceeds the current threshold value of the (n + 1) th car converter, wherein the (n + 1) th car is a sequential car of the (n) th car arranged according to a preset sequence. And analogizing until the total auxiliary current value reaches the required current value of the whole vehicle, or until the converters of the N carriages are all started.
Specifically, according to the structural block diagram of the auxiliary converter shown in fig. 1, the auxiliary converter is arranged in a car of a railway vehicle, that is, a plurality of independent controllers in each car are integrated to form an integrated controller, the integrated controller in the car controls the corresponding auxiliary converter to start, and a plurality of independent controllers are not required to operate and control independently, so that a plurality of independent controllers are not required to communicate with each other in each auxiliary converter, the response speed is increased, and the integrated controller performs the intercommunication between the cars through a bus.
The integrated controller of the converter of the nth compartment controls the converter of the nth compartment to start, the integrated controller of the nth compartment judges whether an auxiliary current value output by the converter meets a current value required by a finished vehicle, if so, the integrated controller of the nth compartment starts the rail vehicle to operate according to the auxiliary current value output by the converter of the nth compartment, if not, when the integrated controller of the nth compartment determines that the auxiliary current value output by the converter exceeds a current threshold value of the converter of the nth compartment, a current request is sent to a bus, according to bus information and a preset sequence, the integrated controller of the converter of the (n + 1) th compartment receives the current request and controls the converter of the (n + 1) th compartment to start, and the integrated controller of the (n + 1) th compartment judges whether the auxiliary current value output by the converter meets the current value required by the finished vehicle or not, if so, and starting the rail vehicle to run by using the auxiliary current value superposed and output by the converter of the nth compartment and the converter of the (N + 1) th compartment together, if the auxiliary current value is not met, sending a current request to a bus when the integrated controller of the (N + 1) th compartment determines that the output auxiliary current value exceeds the current threshold value of the converter of the (N + 1) th compartment, enabling the integrated controller in the next compartment to control the converter to start according to a preset sequence, and repeating the steps until the total auxiliary current value reaches the current value required by the whole vehicle, or starting the converters of the N compartments.
For example, as shown in fig. 4 and fig. 5, which are distribution diagrams of an auxiliary converter and an integrated controller in a car, respectively, in fig. 6, the auxiliary converter 10 is referred to as an auxiliary transformer for short, a master control sequence is defaulted when a rail vehicle starts to operate, and mutual monitoring is performed, that is, the auxiliary transformer 1 starts to operate and monitor in the sequence of the auxiliary transformer 1, the auxiliary transformer 2, and the auxiliary transformer 3 to the auxiliary transformer n, and the auxiliary transformer 1 starts to operate and monitor the auxiliary transformer 2 when a load increases, and a current threshold is set at the same time. Specifically, at the initial running stage of the rail vehicle, the integrated controller defaulting to the auxiliary converter 1 controls the auxiliary converter to start to work, if the output current of the auxiliary converter exceeds the upper limit, namely the output current exceeds the set current threshold, the auxiliary converter defaulting to the auxiliary converter 1 sends current request information to a bus, at the moment, the integrated controller defaulting to the 2 sequence controls the auxiliary converter to start to work … … in the same way until the total auxiliary current value reaches the required current value of the whole vehicle, or until the converters of the N carriages are started.
When the load of the railway vehicle is small, the auxiliary converter of one carriage or part of carriages can be selected to work, namely the current value required by the current railway vehicle is met, so that mutual communication is reduced, the working loss is reduced, and the operating efficiency is improved.
According to the method for controlling the auxiliary current transformer of the railway vehicle, a plurality of independent controllers in the auxiliary current transformer are integrated, namely a plurality of original independent transformers are integrated, for example, three independent transformers are integrated, the integrated controller in the embodiment of the invention is used for controlling the current transformers in corresponding carriages to be started sequentially through the integrated controller according to a preset starting sequence of the current transformers, and the mutual communication among all the carriages is realized through a bus, so that not only are circuit modules saved and the cost reduced, but also the mutual communication among the independent controllers is reduced, namely the mutual communication in the whole vehicle is reduced, the control mode of the whole vehicle is more flexible, the response speed is improved, meanwhile, according to the current value requirement of the whole vehicle, the starting work of partial current transformers can be selected and controlled, the loss of the whole vehicle is reduced, and a plurality of carriages are responsible for adjusting work modules according to power supply, the operation efficiency is improved.
In an embodiment, the method for controlling the auxiliary converter of the rail vehicle according to the embodiment of the invention further includes controlling the started converter to stop outputting the auxiliary current according to a reverse order of the preset order when the current value required by the whole vehicle is reduced until the total auxiliary current value is reduced to the current value required by the whole vehicle. For example, the rail vehicle starts operation in the sequence of auxiliary transformer 1, auxiliary transformer 2, auxiliary transformer 3-auxiliary transformer n by default, if the current finished vehicle starts the auxiliary current transformer defaulted to auxiliary transformer 1-auxiliary transformer 5 according to the preset sequence, when the current value of the current required current of the finished vehicle is detected to be reduced, namely the current value of the current required current of the rail vehicle is smaller than the set current threshold value, the current transformer defaulted to auxiliary transformer 5 is controlled to stop operation, and stop information is sent to the bus, if the current value of the current required current of the finished vehicle is still reduced, the current transformer defaulted to auxiliary transformer 4 is controlled to stop operation in the reverse sequence, and the stop information is sent to the bus, and so on until the total auxiliary current value is reduced to the current value required by.
In an embodiment, the method for controlling the auxiliary converter of the railway vehicle further includes that when the converters of the N cars are all started and the total auxiliary current value is smaller than the current value required by the whole vehicle, the integrated controller which finally starts the converters in the N cars sends warning information to the bus.
In an embodiment, the method for controlling the auxiliary converter of the railway vehicle further includes that the integrated controller of the (n + 1) th car converter judges that the (n + 1) th car converter executes starting according to the bus information, and if the starting success information fed back by the (n + 1) th car converter is not received within a preset time, the (n + 1) th car converter is controlled to start, and failure information of the (n + 1) th car converter is sent to the bus.
Or after the integrated controller of the nth compartment converter controls the converter to start, determining that the converter fails to start according to the auxiliary current value output by the nth compartment converter, and feeding back start failure information to the bus, and after the integrated controller of the n +1 th compartment converter receives the start failure information fed back by the nth compartment converter, controlling the n +1 th compartment converter to start and sending the failure information of the nth compartment converter to the bus. Further, the integrated controller of the nth car converter determines that the number of times of failed start-up of the nth car converter reaches a preset number of times, and then sends start-up failure information to the bus.
Specifically, for the failure detection mode of the track auxiliary converter, a starting time threshold value can be set in the track auxiliary converter, if the track auxiliary converter defaulting to the auxiliary converter 2 is started, the track auxiliary converter defaulting to the auxiliary converter 3 does not receive starting success information fed back by the converter defaulting to the auxiliary converter 2 within a preset time, the converter defaulting to the auxiliary converter 3 is controlled to be started, the converter failure information defaulting to the auxiliary converter 2 is sent to a bus, or the track auxiliary converter defaulting to the auxiliary converter 2 is still unsuccessful after multiple starting attempts, starting failure information is fed back to the bus, the track auxiliary converter defaulting to the auxiliary converter 3 is controlled to be started, and meanwhile the track auxiliary converter failure information defaulting to the auxiliary converter 2 is sent. In the embodiment, a plurality of detection conditions may be set, and the conditions may be set according to needs or actual situations so as to control the operation of the rail vehicle.
In an embodiment, the method for controlling the auxiliary current transformer of the railway vehicle further comprises the steps that the integrated controller of each carriage current transformer obtains the current value required by the whole vehicle from the bus, and sends the identity information, the current transformer state and the current transformer output auxiliary current value to the bus.

A master control sequence is defaulted when a rail vehicle starts and runs, the rail vehicle is started in sequence according to bus information and is monitored mutually, a current threshold value is set simultaneously, namely according to the ID of each carriage, the converter is controlled to start and work and is monitored by an integrated controller defaulted as a carriage 1, when a load is increased, namely the converter of the carriage 1 cannot meet the current requirement of the whole vehicle by default, a current request is sent to a bus, the integrated controller defaulted as a carriage 2 receives the bus information to start, namely, an auxiliary transformer 1 is started, an auxiliary transformer 2 is analogized, until the total auxiliary current value reaches the current value required by the whole vehicle, if the total auxiliary converter does not meet the current requirement of the rail vehicle in all work, the last rail auxiliary converter sends an alarm to the bus. And meanwhile, when the current is lower than the current threshold value, namely when the load is reduced, the car converters are closed one by one according to the reverse sequence of the preset sequence, if one converter fails, failure information is sent and rearranged by the master control, if the master control fails, the integrated controller in the next car is started to be used as the master control according to the default sequence, and the like, so that the normal operation of the railway vehicle is realized.
