An Uninterruptible Power Supply(UPS) is a system designed to deliver energy during accidents that the AC mains is out of its acceptable limits, without interruption of power flow through the load. Battery Discharger is the device to supply high quality power to the Inverter, when accidents occur, such as Power Failure. The Battery Discharger should have a fast response characteristics. The LLC resonant converter for UPS battery discharger is proposed. The proposed Battery Discharger offers substantial improvements in efficiency, size and cost. The proposed Battery Discharger of UPS approach is a good solution for high power applications above KW. To verify the validity of proposed Battery Discharger, simulations and experiments are carried out.

A novel integrated battery charger/discharger converter for a standardized battery module is proposed. Instead of using separate charger and discharger converters. it integrates these two converters into a single converter in order to minimize the size. the integrated charger/discharger converter not only regulates the solar array output power including the peak power tracking capability but also controls the battery charging/discharging current depending on the solar array output power and the load power. In addition it offers a regulated bus voltage which simplifies the power distribution/conversion for the pay load.

표준 배터리 모듈 시스템을 위한 새로운 배터라 충.방전기를 제안한다. 전체 시스템의 크기를 줄이기 위해 충전기와 방전기의 회로가 하나의 컨버터로 구현되었으며, 최대 전력 추적을 포함한 태양전지 출략전압 제어와 태양 전지 출력과 부하 전력에 따른 배터리 충.방전 전류 제어를 동시에 수행한다. 또한, 제안된 컨버터는 부하의 전략 공급을 간단히 할 수 있는 일성 전압 버스(regulated bus)를 제공한다. 제안된 컨버터는 특성상 DCM으로 동작하므로 전듀의 첨두지가 크므로 고전력 시스템에서는 여러 개의 모듈로 사용되어야 한다.

This paper proposes a new secondary battery charger/discharger available for zero voltage discharge which is used for test equipments and formation process. The proposed system is a switching type converter, and thus the system is high efficiency and more compact as compared with linear type charger/discharger. Conventional switching type charger/discharger can not discharge secondary batteries to zero voltage because of voltage drops in the switching elements and long distributing line(typically 10m). However, the proposed system is able to discharge the battery to zero voltage in constant current mode regardless of the voltage drops. In this paper, we analyze the proposed charger/discharger and the validity of the system is verified by simulation and experiment.

This paper proposes a simple 3-level interleaved charger-discharger for the uninterruptible power supply (UPS) with various combinations of battery cells. The proposed converter not only improves charging and discharging efficiency, but also reduces the physical volume and the cost. Furthermore, the converter also offers the capability of the neutral point voltage, so that more stable operation can be obtained. In addition, the proposed converter significantly reduces the ripple current of the battery inductor, thereby providing an expected life extension of the battery. Experimental results for a 300kVA UPS prototype verify the validity of the proposed converter. The proposed charger-discharger is suitable for UPSs and energy storage systems (ESSs) with wide input battery voltage ranges.

무정전전원장치(UPS: Uninterruptible Power Supply)는 정전 등의 사고가 발생할 때 양질의 전원을 부하에 공급하는 장치이다. 무정전전원장치의 구성은 크게 역률개선회로, 인버터, battery charger, battery discharger부로 크게 4개로 나눌 수 있다. 그 중 정전 등의 사고발생 시 battery에 충전되었던 에너지를 인버터 부로 공급하여야하며 이를 담당하는 부분이 battery discharger부이다. battery의 전압은 비교적 낮은 전압이며 인버터의 입력에 필요한 전압은 비교적 큰 전압이기 때문에 승압형 컨버터가 필요하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 UPS battery discharger용 3KW급 LLC 공진형 컨버터를 설계하고 실험 검증하였다.

In this paper, we proposed a soft switched synchronous boost converter, which can perform discharging the battery, is proposed. The proposed converter has low switching loss even at high frequency operation due to its soft switching characteristics. The converter operates in synchronous mode to minimize conduction loss because of changing the rectified diode to MOSFET with a low on resistance. In this reason, the efficiency of the converter can be greatly improved in high frequency. In this paper, the battery discharger with a switching frequency of 100 kHz, has been designed. The designed converter also simulated to prove the converter's characteristics of synchronous operation as well as soft switching operation. The simulation shows that the proposed converter always meets the soft switching conditions of turning on and off switching in the zero voltage and zero current states. Therefore, simulation results have confirmed that the proposed battery discharge had soft switching characteristics. The simulation results have confirmed that the proposed battery discharger had soft switching and synchronous operation characteristics.

The designed converter also simulated and experimented to prove the converter's characteristics during synchronous operation. The simulated and experimental results have confirmed that the battery discharger had soft switching characteristics. In addition, the experimental results confirm that the converter has high efficiency characteristics. The efficiency of the circuit exceeds 97%, the efficiency of soft switched synchronous boost converter is at least 6% higher than that of conventional PWM boost converter.
