Name
of
the Project: Research and Development of the Traction Power Supply System
of
Linear
Induction Motor (LIM) Track Transportation
Parties
of the Cooperation: Institute of Electrical Engineering of
The
Chinese Academy of Sciences; and
Harbin
Tech Full Electric Co., Ltd.
Featured
by the advantages in advanced technologies, safety and reliability, reasonable
economy and environmental friendliness, linear-induction-motor (LIM)-driven
track transportation system heralds the development trends of future urban
track
transportation and is bound to become one major mode of urban track
transportation of Chinese cities in the next five to ten years.
Linear
induction motor track transportation system consists of four major sub-systems:
lines, operation control, traction power supply and vehicles. Among them,
traction power supply system is the special sub-system characteristic of the
linear induction motor track transportation. There are significant differences
between the traditional rotating motor track transportation system and LIM-
driven track transportation such as high power linear induction motors, track
reaction plates, traction conversion system and traction control systems.
Therefore, as the first step toward the home-production of the linear induction
motor track transportation system, it is imperative to achieve the
home-production of its traction power supply system, especially that of the
high-power linear induction motors, track reaction plate, traction conversion
system and traction control system.
For
the
purpose of achieving the home-production of the core equipment of the traction
power supply system of the linear induction motor track transportation, grasping
and breaking through its key technologies, the Institute of Electrical
Engineering of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (hereinafter referred to as
the
“IEECAS”) and Harbin Tech Full Electric Co., Ltd (hereinafter referred to as
“HTFE”) have, after consultation pursuant to the provisions of the “Contract Law
of the People’s Republic of China,” reached and signed the following terms of
the agreement.

Overall
Research Objectives
|
The
major
research contents shall be the key technologies of the linear induction motor
track transportation system. One compartment of non-adhesive power-efficient
linear induction motor track transportation car with own intellectual property
rights shall be successfully developed and produced by the end of 2008 and
