DC distribution has several differences compared to AC distribution. DC distribution has a higher efficiency than AC distribution when distributing electricity at the same voltage level. Accordingly, power can be transferred further with low-voltage DC. In addition, power flow in a DC grid system is produced by only a voltage difference in magnitude. Owing to these differences, operation of a DC grid system significantly differs from that of an AC system. In this paper, the power flow problem in a bipolar-type DC grid with unbalanced load conditions is organized and solved. Control strategy of energy storage system on a slow time scale with power references obtained by solving an optimization problem regarding the DC grid is then proposed. The proposed strategy is verified with computer simulations.

The circuit is designed for improving the relationship between input voltage and output current of the MOS transistor, which is square function. This circuit can be used instead of n-channel MOSFET at once. The circuit consists of MOSFET, which acts as a voltage receiver. The source of MOSFET is connected to current control part which consist of bipolar transistors. The exponential characteristic of bipolar transistor is used to solve the square function of MOSFET that base on concept of log and anti-log circuit. The experimental results of simulation are agreed with the implemented circuit.

This study proposes a new voltage balancer with bidirectional DC-DC converter function. The proposed balancer can serve as a voltage balancer and a bidirectional DC-DC converter. Thus, the balancer can be applied to battery management systems or fast chargers in electric vehicles (EVs) charging stations while balancing bipolar DC bus voltages. The proposed system has unlimited voltage balancing range unlike the conventional voltage balancing control using a three-level DC-DC converter. A comparison of the voltage balancing range between the proposed and conventional scheme is explored to confirm this superiority. Simulation and experimental results are provided to validate the effectiveness of the proposed system.

This paper presents the three-port DC-DC converter modeling and controller design procedure, which is part of the solid-state transformer (SST) to interface medium voltage AC grid to bipolar DC distribution network. Due to the high primary side DC link voltage, the proposed converter employs the three-level neutral point clamped (NPC) topology at the primary side and 2-two level half bridge circuits for each DC distribution network. For the proposed converter particular structure, this paper conducts modeling the three winding transformer and the power transfer between each port. A decoupling method is adopted to simplify the power transfer model. The voltage controller design procedure is presented. In addition, the output current sharing controller is employed for current balancing between the parallel-connected secondary output ports. The proposed circuit and controller performance are verified by experimental results using a 30 kW prototype SST system.

This paper proposes a new NLC (Nearest Level Control) scheme for MMCs (Modular Multilevel Converters), which offers voltage ripple reductions in the DC capacitor of the SM (Sub-Module), the output voltage harmonics, and the switching losses. The feasibility of the proposed NLC was verified through computer simulations. Based on these simulation results, a hardware prototype of a 10kVA, DC-1000V MMC was manufactured in the lab. Experiments were conducted to verify the feasibility of the proposed NLC in an actual hardware environment. The experimental results were consistent with the results obtained from the computer simulations.

The SIT was introduced by Nishizawa. in 1972. When compared with high-voltage, power bipolar junction transistors, SITs have several advantages as power switching devices. They have a higher input impedance than do bipolar transistors and a negative temperature coefficient for the drain current that prevents thermal runaway, thus allowing the coupling of many devices in parallel to increase the current handling capability. Furthermore, the SIT is majority carrier device with a higher inherent switching speed because of the absence of minority carrier recombination, which limits the speed of bipolar transistors. This also eliminates the stringent lifetime control requirements that are essential during the fabrication of high-speed bipolar transistors. This results in a much larger safe operating area(SOA) in comparison to bipolar transistors. In this paper, vertical SIT structures are proposed to improve their electrical characteristics including the blocking voltage. Besides, the two dimensional numerical simulations were carried out using ISE-TCAD to verify the validity of the device and examine the electrical characteristics. A trench gate region oxide power SIT device is proposed to improve forward blocking characteristics. The proposed devices have superior electrical characteristics when compared to conventional device. Consequently, the fabrication of trench oxide power SIT with superior stability and electrical characteristics is simplified.
