본 논문에서는 제어 시지연을 갖는 고성능 PI 전류제어기에 대한 새로운 예측전류 적용방법을 모색한다. 먼저 선형 영구자석 동기전동기를 사용한 선형 서보 제어시스템에 존재하는 불가피한 전류예측 오차원인을 분석하고, 전류예측 오차와 제어 시지연을 고려한 전류제어 성능 개선 방법으로 수정된 동기좌표계 비간섭 PI 전류제어기를 제안한다. 그리고 시뮬레이션 및 실험 결과를 통하여 제안된 전류제어기가 서보 제어시스템에 존재하는 전류예측 오차와 제어 시지연이 있는 경우에도 개선된 전류제어응답을 보임을 검증하였다.

During magnetic inrush or over-excitation, saturation of the core in a transformer draws a significant exciting current, which can cause malfunction of a current-differential relay. This paper proposes a modified-current-differential relay for transformer protection. The relay calculates the core-loss current from the induced voltage and the core-loss resistance as well as the magnetizing current from the core flux and the magnetization curve. Finally, the relay obtains the modified differential current by subtracting the core-loss and the magnetizing currents from the conventional differential current. A comparative study of the conventional differential relay with harmonic blocking is presented. The proposed relay not only discriminates magnetic inrush and over-excitation from an internal fault, but also improves the relay speed.

We analyzed the characteristics of a power system with superconducting fault current limiter and showed the possibility of the application of a superconducting fault current limiter to a real power system through manufacturing of and experiment about 220Vrms/100Apeak class superconducting fault current limiter. We experimentally confirmed that the overvoltage of superconducting fault current limiter increased as the rate of current sharing to the limiting coil grew. The fault current could be limited within a few milliseconds when it was applied to a power system in series. Therefore, we could confirm that superconducting fault current limiter was effective in protection of a substation or power plant at short-circuit fault. (author). 7 refs., 7 figs., 2 tabs.

No matter how intense magnetic flux it contains, a coronal magnetic structure has little free magnetic energy when a composing magnetic field is close to a potential field, or current-free field where no volume electric current flows. What kind of electric current system is developed is therefore a key to evaluating the activity of a coronal magnetic structure. Since the corona is a highly conductive medium, a coronal electric current tends to survive without being dissipated, so the free magnetic energy provided by a coronal electric current is normally hard to release in the corona. This work aims at clarifying how a coronal electric current system is structurally developed into a system responsible for producing a flare. Toward this end, we perform diffusive MHD simulations for the emergence of a magnetic flux tube with different twist applied to it, and go through the process of structuring a coronal electric current in a twisted flux tube emerging to form a coronal magnetic structure. Interestingly, when a strongly twisted flux tube emerges, there spontaneously forms a structure inside the flux tube, where a coronal electric current changes flow pattern from field-aligned dominant to cross-field dominant. We demonstrate that this structure plays a key role in releasing free magnetic energy via rapid dissipation of a coronal electric current, thereby producing a flare.

고정도 전류-모드 신호 처리를 위한 새로운 완전-차동형 바이폴라 전류 감산기(FCS)와 이를 이용한 전류-제어 전류 증폭기(CCCA)를 설계했다. 완전-차동 전류 출력을 얻기 위해, FCS는 낮은 전류-입력 임피던스를 갖는 두 개의 전류 폴로워가 좌우 대칭적으로 구성되어 있다. CCCA는 출력전류를 바이어스 전류로 제어하기 위해 완전 차동형 전류 감산기(FCS)와 단일 전류 출력단을 갖는 전류 이득 증폭기(CGA)로 구성되었다. 시뮬레이션 결과 FCS는 5 Ω의 전류-입력 임피던스와 우수한 선형성을 갖는다는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, CCCA는 바어이스 전류를 100μA에서 20 mA까지 가변했을 경우 20 MHz의 3-dB 차단 주파수를 갖는다는 것을 확인하였다. FCS와 CCCA의 전력 소비는 각각 1.8 mW와 3 mW이다.

AC loss of a high $T_c$ superconducting conductor has a strong influence on the economic viability of a superconducting fault current limiter, which offers an attractive means to limit short circuit current in the power systems. Therefore, several samples of the fault current limiting coils have been fabricated and the effect of conductor's arrangement and current direction on AC loss characteristics investigated experimentally The test result shows that the AC losses measured in the fault current limiting coils depend significantly on the conductor's arrangement. Futhermore, they are also considerably influenced by the conductor's current direction. The AC loss measured in the face-to-face arrangement is smallest among the fault current limiting coil samples.

A circulating current is a major problem caused by directly connecting voltage-source inverters (VSIs) in parallel. This circulating current occurs as a zero-sequence current between the inverters by specific switch states. Several studies have presented alternatives using hardware and software methods. When coupled inductors (CIs) are employed for the high-frequency circulating current, a controller is required to prevent the low-frequency circulating current from saturating the CIs. In this study, the zero-sequence circulating current and its alternatives are investigated using hardware and mathematical description. A high-performance circulating current controller is proposed by applying a repetitive controller to the zero-sequence current control loop. The proposed controller can effectively minimize the low-frequency circulating current without any data sharing between the inverters in unfavorable conditions. It can also be applicable to the modular configuration of parallel three-phase VSIs. Experimental results verify the performance of the proposed controller.

Using a current-mode multiple reset, a current-to-voltage(I-V) converter with a wide dynamic range was produced. The converter consists of a trans-impedance amplifier(TIA), an analog-to-digital converter(ADC), and an N-bit counter. The digital output of the I-V converter is composed of higher N bits and lower bits, obtained from the N-bit counter and the ADC, respectively. For an input current that has departed from the linear region of the TIA, the counter increases its digital output, this determines a reset current which is subtracted from the input current of the I-V converter. This current-mode reset is repeated until the input current of the TIA lies in the linear region. This I-V converter is realized using 0.35 ${\mu}m$ LSI technology. It is shown that the proposed I-V converter can increase the maximum input current by a factor of $2^N$ and widen the dynamic range by $6^N$. Additionally, the I-V converter is successfully applied to a photometric sensor.

The active power factor control AC/DC converter needs a current loop compensator to obtain better dynamic characteristics and power factor performance, but the optimal design of a current loop compensator is difficult because the AC/DC converter is a nonlinear system having periodically varying poles and zeros. The predictive current control scheme generates a control input using the dynamic equations of the AC/DC converter so that the dynamic of the AC/DC converter is included in the controller and the necessary bandwidth and the gain characteristics of the current control loop are satisfied. And as a result, a compensator becomes unnecessary and the current loop shows the improved current loop characteristics. In this paper, a power factor controller without current loop compensator by adopting a predictive current control scheme is designed and the designed power factor controller is modelled by using a small signal perturbation modelling technique, and simulated to investigate its small signal characteristics. A 200 W power factor control AC/DC converter is built to verify the effectiveness of the proposed power factor controller.

The single sensor technique reconstructing phase currents from the dc-link current without phase current sensors in proposed. When the duration of active vector is too short for the snubber current to reduce, the dc-link current including the snubber current gives large detection error. The solution is presented by analyzing the snubber current and modifying the switching sequences. This scheme is simple, requires only one sampling a period and has good results for detecting the phase currents.
