Abstract

A stand-alone Photovoltaic (PV) system is one of the most important energy system for Mongolian nomadic herders. Basically, a stand-alone PV system uses two DC-DC converters. This makes the system costly, size bigger and difficult to move from one place to another place for the nomadic herders. A combined control algorithm for charging the battery using Stage of Charge (SOC) and Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) is proposed in this paper. The batteries are charged by the three stage method; bulk, absorption and float charge. In the bulk stage used the MPPT function in this study. The performance of the proposed control algorithm is evaluated in both steady and changing weather conditions. The results are obtained using PSIM software. The results obtained in this paper are useful in designing a stand-alone PV system in the rural life like Mongolian nomadic herders.

독립형 태양광(PV) 시스템은 몽골 유목민 목축업자들에게 가장 중요한 에너지발전 시스템 중 하나이다. 기본적으로 독립형 PV 시스템은 두 개의 DC-DC 컨버터를 사용한다. 이 시스템은 비용이 많이 들고, 사이즈가 커지기 때문에 다른 장소로 이동 할 때 큰 어려움이 있다. 본 논문에서는 배터리의 SOC 제어 와 최대전력추종제어가(MPPT) 결합된 제어 알고리즘을 제안한다. 배터리는 3단계(Bulk, Absorption, Float Charge)로 충 방전된다. 본 논문에서는 Bulk단계에서 MPPT제어 기반으로 충전되는 제어 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 제어 알고리즘을 다양한 날씨 조건에 대해서 적용하였으며, PSIM 소프트웨어를 이용한 시뮬레이션을 통하여 그 효용성을 검증하였다. 본 논문에서 제안한 알고리즘은 몽골 유목민들의 농촌 생활에 필수적인 독립형 태양광 발전 시스템을 설계하는데 유용하게 사용될 것이다.
