In urban rail transport systems such as subway, Trains are constantly accelerate and brake, so the braking system is of great importance in energy consumption and constitute about 30 to 40 percent of total energy consumption trains, thus retrieval braking energy will lead to significant savings in urban rail transport systems. In this paper, in the beginning, different storage equipments for storage braking energy have been studied and compared and finally Supercapacitors due to technical and economic features have been selected for the storge of equipment. These systems can be implemented in both stationary and onboard. For precise evaluation and select the appropriate storage system, by...
