Single-phase Uninterruptible Power Supply employing Superconducting Magnet Energy Storage Unit  

Kang, Feel-Soon (Department of Control and Instrumentation Eng., Hanbat Nat'l Univ.)
Abstract
A single-phase uninterruptible power supply system equipped with a superconducting magnet energy storage unit is proposed to achieve a simple circuit configuration and higher system reliability. It reduces a number of switching devices by applying a common-arm scheme. Removing some switches or substituting passive elements for active switches can increase the sophistication and reduces degree of freedom in control strategy. However, high-performance DSP controller can execute the complicated control task with no additional cost. Operational principles to normal, stored-energy, and bypass mode are discussed in detail. The validity of the proposed system is verified by experimental results.
