Recently, In the production line of batteries, charge and discharge tests are essential to verify battery characteristics. In this case, the battery charging uses a unidirectional AC/DC converter capable of output voltage and current control, and the discharge uses a resistive load. Since this method consumes energy during discharge, it must be replaced with a bi-directional AC/DC converter system capable of charging and discharging. Although it is difficult to replace the connected inverter part of the bi-directional AC/DC converter system due to the high cost, the spread of the solar-connected inverter rapidly increases as the current solar supply business is activated, and thereby the solar-connected type Inverter prices are plunging. If it can be used as a power converter for battery discharge without program modification of the solar-powered inverter, it will have competition. In this paper, propose a new battery discharge system using a combination of a photovoltaic DC/DC simulator and photovoltaic PCS using a battery to be used as a power converter for battery discharge without program modification of a low-cost photovoltaic inverter. In addition, propose an optimal solar characteristic curve for the stable operation of PCS. The validity of the proposed system was verified using a 500[W] class solar DC/DC simulator and a solar PCS prototype.

본 논문에서는 휴대폰의 배터리 방전 시에도 비상전화나 문자 메시지의 사용을 가능하게 해주는 자가발전기에 관한 연구를 진행하여 휴대폰 케이스를 통한 휴대폰의 재충전 방법을 제시한다. 사용자가 스마트 폰 케이스를 흔들게 되면 전자기 코일과 발전기의 영구 자석의 상호 작용을 통해 리튬 이온 배터리를 충전 하며 전기 에너지가 생성된다. 이 때 생성된 전기에너지는 사용자가 몇 분의 통화 또는 문자 메시지를 사용할 수 있는 전력을 제공 해준다. 또한 사람이 걸을 때 위상의 변화에 의해 2 ~ 3 Hz 주파수의 진동 에너지가 발생하는데, 이를 획득하는 에너지 하베스팅 과정을 통해 배터리를 충전한다. 그리고 발전량을 분석하는 것은 상용 전자기 해석 프로그램인 MAXWELL을 사용하여 모델링 후 시뮬레이션 하였다. 마지막으로 분석한 결과를 바탕으로 자가 발전을 위한 휴대폰 케이스의 프로토타입을 구축하고 그 측정값과 시뮬레이션 값을 비교함으로써 프로토타입의 성능을 검증하였다.

It has three driving modes; Hybrid mode, Engine mode and Battery mode. Even in case of Battery mode, LPB pack to get enough power to drive the vehicle only by itself onsists of 168 LPB cells(80Ah per lcell), 650V. It is important thing to manage LPB pack in a right way, which will extend the lifetime of LPB cells and operate in the hybrid mode effectively. This paper has shown the development of battery management system(12 BMS, 1 BMS per 14cells) to manage LPB pack which is connected with CAN(Controller Area Network) each other and measure the voltage, current, temperature and also control the cooling fan inside of LPB pack. Using the measured data, BMS can show the SOC(State of Charge), SOH(State of Health) and other status of LPB pack including of the cell balancing.

This paper presents a simple and cost-effective stand-alone rapid battery charging system of 30kW for electric vehicles. The proposed system mainly consists of active front-end rectifier of neutral point clamped 3-level type and non-isolated bi-directional dc-dc converter of multi-phase interleaved half-bridge topology. The charging system is designed to operate for both lithium-polymer and lithium-ion batteries. The complete charging sequence is made up of three sub-interval operating modes; pre-charge mode, constant-current mode, and constant-voltage mode. The pre-charge mode employs the stair-case shaped current profile to accomplish shorter charging time while maintaining the reliable operation of the battery. The proposed system is specified to reach the full-charge state within less than 16min for the battery capacity of 8kWh by supplying the charging current of 78A. Owing to the simple and compact power conversion scheme, the proposed solution has superior module-friendly mechanical structure which is absolutely required to realize flexible power expansion capability in a very high-current rapid charging system.

Wind power producers face many regulation costs in deregulated environment, which remarkably lowers the value of wind power in comparison with conventional sources. One of these costs is associated with the real-time variation of power output and being paid in frequency control market according to the variation band. This paper presents a new approach to coordination of battery energy storage in wind generation system for reducing the payment in frequency control market. The approach depends on the statistic data of wind generation and the prediction of frequency control market price to determine the optimal variation band which is then kept by the real-time charging and discharging of batteries, ultimately the minimum cost of frequency regulation can be obtained. The optimization problem is formulated as trade-off between the decrease in the regulation payment and the increase in the cost of using battery, and vice versus. The approach is applied to a study case and the results of simulation show its effectiveness.

엔진과 전기추진장치를 혼합한 하이브리드 추진 장치를 구동하기 위해서는 셀 단위로 이루어진 수십 개의 리튬계열의 배터리가 들어 있는 팩들로 접속이 된 전원을 사용한다. 따라서 많은 량의 배터리 셀의 상태를 언제든지, 엄격하게 관리할 필요가 있다. 일반적으로 배터리 관리(Battery management system, BMS)는 셀 전압, 전류 및 온도 등의 데이터를 운전 중에 받아서 상태를 컴퓨터로 모니터링 한다. 배터리의 상태를 확인하기 위한 또 다른 중요한 데이터는 배터리의 잔존수명(State of charge, SOH)을 알 수 있는 내부저항과 충전상태(State of charge, SOC)를 알 수 있는 무 부하 단자전압(Open circuit voltage, OCV)이 있다. 그러나 연속운전 중에는 내부 손실저항과 캐패시턴스의 병렬 등가회로로 인하여 내부저항의 측정이 어렵다. 또한 대부분의 에너지저장시스템에는 전압, 전류, 온도 등의 데이터를 이용하여 BMS가 수행되고 있지만, 운전 중에 예기치 않게 배터리 셀의 고장이 발생하는 경우에는 구동 전원장치의 출력전압이 변동하고, 하이브리드 자동차 또는 선박의 추진이 어려울 수가 있다. 본 논문에서는 리튬인산철 배터리 팩을 이용한 하이브리드 선박용 직류전원장치를 대상으로 배터리 셀의 돌발고장 순간에도 직류전원장치의 일정전압을 유지하면서 내부저항의 추정이 가능하고, 정상운전 중에는 OCV의 추정이 가능한 고 안전 BMS를 구현하고자 한다.

In this paper, we have studied about minimizing the Energy Storage System (ESS) capacity for mitigating the fluctuation of Wind Turbine Generation System (WTGS) by using Electric Double Layer Capacitor (EDLC) and Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). In this case, they have some different characteristics: The EDLC has the ability of generating the output power at high frequency. Thus, it is able to reduce the fluctuation of WTGS in spite of high cost. The BESS, by using Li-Ion battery, takes the advantage of high energy density, however it is limited to use at low frequency response. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, simulations are carried out with the actual data of 2MW WTGS in case of worst fluctuation of WTGS is happened. By comparing simulation results, this method shows the excellent performance. Therefore, it is very useful for understanding and minimizing the ESS capacity for mitigating the fluctuation of WTGS.

Effects of alloying elements on the corrosion layer formation of Pb-grid/active materials interface has been researched for improvement of corrosion resistance of Pb-Ca alloy. For this research, various amounts of alloying elements such as Sn, Ag and Ba were added to the Pb-Ca alloys and investigated their corrosion behaviors. Batteries fabricated by using these alloys as cathode grids were subjected to life cycle test. Overcharge life cycle test was carried out at $75^{\circ}C$, 4.5 A, for 110 hrs. with KS standard (KSC 8504). And then, after keeping the battery with open circuit state for 48 hr, discharge was carried out at 300A for 30 sec. Corrosion morphology and interface between Pb-grid and active materials were investigated by using ICP, SEM, WDX, and LPM. Corrosion layer of Pb-Ca alloy got thicken with increasing Ca content. For Pb-Ca-Sn alloy, thickness of corrosion layer decreased as Sn and Ag content increased gradually. In case of Pb-Ca-Sn-Ba alloy, thickness of corrosion layer decreased up to 0.02 wt% Ba addition, whereas, it was not changed in case of above 0.02 wt% Ba addition.

Lithium-ion batteries with high energy density, long cycle life and other advantages, have been widely used to energy storage systems(ESS). But as ESS fires frequently occur, the safety concern has become the main obstacle that hinders the large-scale applications of lithium-ion batteries. Especially, thermal runaway is the key scientific problem in battery safety research. Therefore, in this study, we performed a numerical analysis on the thermal runaway phenomenon of NCM111, NCM523 and NCM622 batteries using a two-dimensional analysis model. The results show that the two-dimensional simulation results are generally matched with three-dimensional simulation. Also, In the case of NCM111 with a low Ni content in the temperature range used in this study, thermal runaway phenomenon does occurred very slowly, but as the Ni content is increased, the thermal runaway phenomenon occurs rapidly and the thermal stability tends to be decreased. And, in NCM523 and NCM622 batteries, chain reactions occur almost simultaneously, but in the case of NCM111 battery, it is found that after the SEI(Solid Electrolyte Interface) layer decomposition reaction, the cathode-electrolyte reaction is appeared sequentially. After that, the anodic decomposition reaction is increased and leads to the thermal runaway reaction.
