In this study, we analyzed the cause of the burn out phenomenon in the power distribution system for aircraft and proposed the improvement method. The power distribution device for aircraft has an AC and DC, and there is a rectifier between the two devices. The capacitors in the power board burn out when the power is turned on and off. The main reason for this is the excessive voltage caused by the inductance built into the rectifier. The cases that can cause a failure are classified. The impact was analyzed and the solution was established through the experimental method.

The electrical power system of Korean Utility Helicopter(KUH) is designed as a dual control system to enhance the system safety of aircraft and each system is installed separately at left and right of the aircraft. The system is composed of 2 AC generators, 1 APU generator, 2 Transformer Rectifier Units(TRU), AC/DC Electrical Master Box(AC/DC EMB). The AC/DC EMB, consists of 2 AC EMB and 2 DC EMB, is essential equipment which supply and distribute electric power to the aviation electronics and electrical equipment of KUH. There were defects caused by internal short circuit in AC EMB during the first production phase of the KUH. This paper describes the analysis of the defects, troubleshooting process, root cause, and the solution by design change.

본 연구에서는 에너지 저장시스템인 ESS 에너지 분배에 관한 시스템을 설계 및 제작하고 성능을 평가하였다. ESS에 충전하는 방법은 현재 기존의 상용전원을 전지에 충전하는 방식과(연계형) 태양광 에너지를 이용한 방법(독립형)으로 나누어져 있다. 본 연구에서는 어느 한쪽을 선택해야하는 번거로움을 줄여 상용전원과 태양광을 동시에 충전할 수 있는 시스템으로 설계하였다. 이러한 방법은 날씨 및 기타 외부적 환경이 좋지 않을 경우 일반 상용전원(AC 220V)를 이용하며 외부적 환경이 좋을 때는 태양전지로 충전이 가능하도록 연계형과 독립형이 동시에 가능하도록 구성하였다. 또한 출력에서 기존의 AC 220V 출력뿐만 아니라 DC12V, 24V의 전압과 USB(5V)도 동시에 출력이 가능하게 설계하므로 필요한 전압을 외부의 인버터나 컨버터가 필요 없이 바로 사용할 수 있도록 배분하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 ESS의 전력을 효율적으로 배분하므로 효율성을 증가시키고 내부의 배터리를 보호하는 시스템을 구성하여 그 성능평가를 실시하였으며 실험결과 효율적으로 배분된 전력을 얻을 수 있음을 검증하였다.

In this paper, an analytical approach for the design and analysis of an aperiodic electromagnetic bandgap (EBG)-based power distribution network (PDN) in high-speed integrated-circuit (IC) packages and printed circuit boards (PCBs) is proposed. Aperiodic EBG is an effective method to solve the noise problem of high-speed IC packages and PCBs. However, its analysis becomes challenging due to increased computation time. To overcome the problem, the proposed analytical method entails deriving impedance parameters for EBG island and the overall PDN, which includes locally placed EBG structures. To validate the proposed method, a test vehicle is fabricated, demonstrating good agreement with the measurements. Significantly, the proposed analytical method reduces computation time by 99.7 %compared to the full-wave simulation method.

한국천문연구원에서는 우주물체 전자광학 감시체계(OWL: Optical Wide-field Patrol) 구축사업을 통해 북반구 3개소와 남반구 2개소에 0.5m급 관측시설을 설치, 운영할 계획이다. 이 시설은 국적위성과 우주잔해물을 감시하여 궤도정보를 획득하는 것을 목적으로 한다. OWL 관측소는 관측, 자료처리 등 일련의 과정을 자동으로 수행하는 무인감시 시스템이기 때문에 각종 기기들에 대한 전원 제어와 네트워크 연결, 작업 상태 확인 등 관측과 관련된 제반사항 역시 모두 자동으로 이루어진다. 따라서 이들 기기들에 대한 전원 제어 및 네트워크 연결은, 관측소 운용 측면에서 뿐만 아니라 향후 유지 관리를 고려할 때 단순화시켜야할 필요가 있다. 우리는 이 발표를 통해 완전개폐형 돔과 OWL 관측소에 설치될 서브시스템 및 주요 기기들에 대한 전원분배, 제어, 네트워크 연결, 그리고 사이트 보드를 통한 이종 인터페이스 통합에 관한 내용을 소개한다.

A software-controlled unregulated bus system in which the main bus is directly connected to a battery and the duty-ratio for PWM switch is controlled by the on-board satellite software, is usually used for LEO satellites. This paper proposes a new power-stage circuit that can be available for modularization of a power regulator which is used at the software-controlled unregulated bus system satellite. And we analyze the proposed power-stage operation according to its operating modes and verify it by performing software simulation and hardware experiment using prototype. We construct a parallel-module converter which is composed of the proposed power-stage and perform experiment to verify modular characteristics of the proposed power-stage. Finally, we verify the usefulness of the proposed power-stage by comparing above results with those of a parallel-module converter made of conventional power-stage.

Consideration for parallel operation in a high power system has been increased due to the advantages of parallel operation like as high productivity, simplicity of design, and redundancy of power. Based on the small signal model of DC-DC Converter, the simple and exact power stage model of parallel operation system is derived and the parallel operation system using current balance method for the uniform current distribution among the parallel operation system is proposed. Using Simulation programs, which consists of nonidentical Converter modules and changes the position of master and slave automatically, the current distribution error is kept within the limit in the parallel operation system. To verify the high performance of the proposed Converter system for parallel operation, the parallel operation test, which has 2 Converter modules of 1 kW, is accomplished. Also, the simulation result is good agreement with the experiment result in the transient and starting characteristics.

In this paper, the characteristics of LCL set-up parameters for the satellite load distribution are analyzed under the electrical system environment, implemented the LCL circuits and evaluated the performance and its behaviour. Recently, it is implemented the load distribution circuit by latching current limiter(LCL) rather than conventional fuse and relay for the protection of the satellite power system from a fault load. The LCL circuit is composed of the electrical components, not mechanical parts with the fuse and relay. When detected the over current on a fault load, it is activated to maintain the trip-off level for set-up time and then cut-off the load power by the active control. It is more flexible and provided a chance to reuse of the load in case of temporarily event, but the fuse and relay can't be used again after activating due to the physical disconnection. However, for implementation of LCL circuit, it should be carefully considered the behavior of the LCL circuit under the worst electrical system environment and applied it to define the set-up parameters related with over-current inhibition.
