The purpose of this paper is to describe the control system for optimal performance of 2MW gearless PMSG wind turbine system, and to afford some techniques of the algorithm selection and design optimization of the wind turbine control system through analysis of load calculation and control characteristic. Wind turbine control system is composed of the main control system and remote control and monitoring system. The main control system is industrial PC based controller, and the remote control and monitoring system is a server based computer system. The main control system has a supervisory control of the wind turbine with operation procedures and power-speed control through the torque control by pitch angle. There are some applications to optimize the wind turbine system at the starting mode with increasing of rotor speed, and cut-in operating mode to prevent trundling cut-in and cut-out, a gain scheduling of pitch PID controller, torque scheduling and limitation of generation power by temperature limitation or remote command by remote control and monitoring system. Also, the server operation program of the remote control and monitoring system and the design of graphical display are described in this paper.

Because of recent interests in energy conservation and prevention of environmental pollution, research related to these topics is increasing. The U.S. Navy has started to study the HED (hybrid electric drive) system in order to improve the COGAG propulsion system's fuel efficiency in AEGIS destroyers. (This ship's fuel consumption is 40% of the total fuel consumption of the U.S. Navy.) In addition, the Korean Navy is considering applications of the HED system in AEGIS destroyers. The purpose of this study is to analyze the U.S.A.'s HED system and to simulate its generating mode energy saving rate using LabVIEW. The results confirmed that the fuel savings are about 700 kg/h.

To improve the core technology of the micro gas turbine, the performance test facility was developed. This paper is focusing on the explanation of the characteristics of micro gas turbine and its assist devices. Major part of micro gas turbine were radial type of compressor, annular type of combustor, radial type of turbine, thrust foil bearing, radial foil bearing and generator. The assist devices were consist of exhaust duct, inverter, data acquisition system, load bank and test cell. Before building up the test facility, the component test was previously conducted to confirm the component performance. After the test facility was prepared, the motoring test was conducted to investigate the rotor dynamic characteristics of the micro gas turbine. Also, the part load performance test was performed. With a developed micro gas turbine test facility, the improved core technology about the micro gas turbine can be suggested to the related industries.

In vertical hydro/hydraulic power turbine-generator applications, traditionally, cylindrical turbine guide bearings (TGBs) are widely used to provide turbine runner shafts with smooth rotation guides and supports. All existing cylindrical TGBs with simple plain pads have drawbacks such as having no pressure generation and film stiffness at the no-load condition and in addition, at the low-load/low-eccentricity condition, having very low film stiffness values and lacking design credibility in the stiffness values themselves. In this paper, in order to fundamentally improve the low-load/low-eccentricity performance of conventional cylindrical TGBs and thus enhance their design-application availability and usefulness, we propose to introduce a rotation-directional leading-edge taper to each partitioned pad, i.e., a pad leading-edge taper. We perform a design analysis of lubrication performance on $4-Pad{\times}4-Row$ cylindrical TGBs to verify an engineering/technical usefulness of the proposed pad leading-edge taper. Analysis results show that by introducing the leading-edge taper to each pad of the cylindrical TGB one can expect a constant high average direct stiffness with a high degree of design credibility, regardless of load value, even at the low-load/low-eccentricity condition and also control the average direct stiffness value by exploring the taper height as a design parameter. Therefore, we conclude that the proposed pad leading-edge tapers are greatly effective in more accurately predicting and controlling rotordynamic characteristics of vertical hydro-power turbine-generator rotor-bearing systems to which cylindrical TGBs are applied.

In this paper, The basic design and the steady-state performances of a high-speed permanent magnet synchronous motor/generator (PMSMG) for gas-turbine are presented. For deveoping a high-speed machine, it must be taken account into the mechanical view as well as the electrical because of high centrifugal force of a rotor. Based on considering those, this paper deals with the characteristics of generating mode and motoring mode from a electrical point of view.

The cogging torque is important to the cut-in wind speed. And, it causes the acoustic noise and the vibration on the machine. This paper presents a 3D FEA(Finite Element Analysis) to evaluate the effect of magnet skew and stator displacement on cogging torque reduction, for double core AFPM(Axial Flux Permanent Magnet) generator. As a result, the magnet skew and the stator side displacement are proved excellent techniques to reduce the cogging torque.

본 논문에서는 계통 전압 사고 상황에서 계통 연계형 풍력 발전 시스템이 만족시켜야 할 LVRT(Low Voltage Ride Through) 동작 모의 및 동특성을 분석하였다. 제작한 시뮬레이터는 유도전동기를 이용한 풍력터빈 모델과 영구자석 동기 발전기 그리고 컨버터와 인버터로 구성된 Back to Back Converter를 통해 계통과 연계되는 구조를 가지고 있다. 계통과 연계되는 부분에 슬라이닥스와 변압기 그리고 IGBT를 이용해 계통의 사고를 모의할 수 있는 계통 전압사고 모의 장치를 제작하여 연결하였으며, 이 계통 전압사고 모의 장치는 A, B, C 각 상을 독립적으로 제작해 다양한 계통사고를 모의할 수 있도록 구성하였다. 하드웨어 시뮬레이터와 제안된 계통 전압 사고 모의 장치 분석을 위해 PSCAD/EMTDC 소프트웨어를 이용한 시뮬레이션을 실시하였고 하드웨어 실험을 통해 그 타당성을 검증하였다.

In concert with the growing emphasis placed on distributed power generation there will be a need, in the first decade of the 21th century, for a compact thermal energy system capable of providing the total energy needs of individual homes. A natural gas fueled co-generation micro-turbine with ultra low emission will meet this need. Market opportunities for a distributed micro turbine co-generation system are projected to increase dramatically. In this paper, It was determined that with current state of art component performance levels, metrallic materials, thermal efficiency goal of $28\%$ at sea level standard day conditions are attainable. Higher overall thermal efficiency of $78\%$ is attainable with micro-turbine combined with exhaust fired boilers.

기술기준의 개발은 원자로형의 공급국가에 따라 다양한 형태의 기술기준 적용으로 파생되는 국 산화 및 기술자립지연 등 문제를 해결하기 위하여 개발하고 있다. 일반기계기기는 전력생산과 직접 관련되면서도 ASME Sec. III의 적용을 받는 원자력기계기기와는 달리 구별되나 화력발전 용과는 사용조건이 다를 뿐 기능과 역할이 동일하다. 따라서 국내실정에 적합하면서 우수한 기 술성과 안전성을 확보할 수 있도록 일반기계기기의 기술기준을 개발하여 향후 국내 주도로 건 설되는 원전후속기 및 화력발전소에 점진적으로 활용함으로써 원전산업뿐만 아니라 화력발전산 업의 활성화에도 크게 기여해야 할 것으로 생각된다. 또한, 보일러, 터빈발전기 및 전기집진기등 금번에 기술기준개발 범위에서 제외된 기기의 기술기준도 개발하여 일반기계기기로 분류된 기 기의 실질적인 기술자립을 꾀하고 금번기술기준 제정 한 번으로 끝날 것이 아니라 기술기준의 유지관리를 위한 전담기구를 설립하여 기술기준을 지속적인 보완과 확대로 기술자립을 앞당 겨야 할 것으로 사료된다.

In order to intensify an enterprise competition, quality inspection controls are very important issue. An organization or division of a company hopes which to acquire the quality inspection information be updated in real-time with respect to shop floor. In this paper, we develop a quality inspection control system for a Turbine/Generator production industry. The system compromises inspection scheduling module related to shop floor control (SFC) system, formal documentation control module, and formal inspection control module. In the quality inspection control system, ORACLE RDBMS is used for the database management system and ORACLE DEVELOPER 2000 is used for system development tool. The characteristic of this system is to support so it can enhance productivity and quality through inspection plans related to production scheduling.
