With the development of DC distribution, DC circuit breaker is required to ensure the stability of the DC grid. Unlike a mechanical circuit breaker that blocks after several tens of milliseconds, a DC SSCB(Solid-State Circuit Breaker) can break the fault well within 1 [ms], so it can prevent the damage of accident. However, the previous DC SSCB requires a lot of switching elements for charging commutation capacitors, and the control is complicated. Therefore, this paper proposes a new DC SSCB suitable for DC grid. The proposed DC SSCB is simple to control for charging commutation capacitors, and it can perform the rapid breaking and operating duty of reclosing and rebreaking. The proposed DC SSCB was designed to 380 [V] and 5 [kW] class which is suitable for residential DC distribution, and the operating characteristics of the proposed DC SSCB were verified by simulations and experiments. It is anticipated that the proposed DC SSCB may be utilized to design and realize DC grid system.

This paper presents an advanced DC droop using both an output current and a grid current. To control parallel-connected converters without communication, the DC droop control is conventionally used. The conventional DC droop control method droops output voltage using an output current. It cannot control the source current causing output voltage errors. This paper proposed the DC droop method using both an output current and a grid current to improve dynamic response of voltage droops. The simulation results with PSIM is provided.

This paper proposes a new grid-tied power converter for battery energy storage, which is composed of a 2-stage DC-DC converter and a PWM inverter. The 2-stage DC-DC converter is composed of an LLC resonant converter connected in cascade with a 2-quadrant hybrid-switching chopper. The LLC resonant converter operates in constant duty ratio, while the 2-quadrant hybrid-switching chopper operates in variable duty ratio for voltage regulation. The operation of proposed system was verified through computer simulations. Based on computer simulations, a hardware prototype was built and tested to confirm the technical feasibility of proposed system. The proposed system could have relatively higher efficiency and smaller size than the existing system.

To satisfy the high voltage direct current (HVDC) grid connection demand for wind power generation system, a novel topology and control strategy of HVDC grid connection for open-winding permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) based wind power generation system is proposed, in which two generator-side converter and two isolated DC/DC converters are used to transmit the wind energy captured by open winding PMSG to HVDC grid. By deducing the mathematic model of open winding PMSG, the vector control technique, position sensorless operation, and space vector modulation strategy is applied to implement the stable generation operation of PMSG. Finally, the simulation model based on MATLAB is built to validate the availability of the proposed control strategy.

DC ${\mu}$-Grid 기반의 충/방전 시스템에서 배터리의 동작 변환 시, 망 전압의 fluctuation이 발생하게 되며, 과다한 fluctuation은 충/방전 시스템의 손상 및 고장을 일으킬 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 DC ${\mu}$-Grid 기반의 충/방전 시스템에서 fluctuation 완화용 커패시터의 적용 및 설계 포인트에 대하여 연구하였다. 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션 결과, 3개의 충전 배터리 set와 5개의 방전 배터리 set의 조건으로 운영되는 DC ${\mu}$-Grid 기반 충/방전 시스템에서 600V/35mF의 초기 값을 갖는 fluctuation 완화용 커패시터를 적용하였을 때 충/방전에 의한 fluctuation을 약 66.3% 감소시킬 수 있었으며, 추가적으로 초기 망 전압 안정화 시 발생하는 fluctuation 또한 약 73% 감소시킬 수 있었다.

A 30kW electrical power conversion system is developed for a variable speed wind turbine. In the wind energy conversion system(WECS) a synchronous generator with field current excitation converts the mechanical energy into electrical energy. As the voltage and the frequency of the generator output vary according to the wind speed, a 6-bridge diode rectifier and a PWM boost chopper is utilized as an ac-dc converter maintaining the constant dc-link voltage with only single switch control. An input current control algorithm for maximum power generation during the variable speed operation is proposed without any usage of speed sensor. Grid connection type PWM inverter converts dc input power to ac output currents into the grid. The active power to the grid is controlled by q-axis current and the reactive power is controlled by d-axis current with appropriate decoupling. The phase angle of utility voltage is detected using software PLL(Phased Locked Loop) in d-q synchronous reference frame. Experimental results from the test of 30kW prototype wind turbine system show that the generator power can be controlled effectively during the variable speed operation without any speed sensor.

This paper presents a finite control set model predictive control (FCS-MPC) strategy for the AC/DC matrix converter used in grid-connected battery energy storage system (BESS). First, to control the grid current properly, the DC current is also included in the cost function because of input and output direct coupling. The DC current reference is generated based on the dynamic relationship of the two currents, so the grid current gains improved transient state performance. Furthermore, the steady state error is reduced by adding a closed-loop. Second, a Luenberger observer is adopted to detect the AC input voltage instead of sensors, so the cost is reduced and the reliability can be enhanced. Third, a switching state pre-selection method that only needs to evaluate half of the active switching states is presented, with the advantages of shorter calculation time, no high dv/dt at the DC terminal, and less switching loss. The robustness under grid voltage distortion and parameter sensibility are discussed as well. Simulation and experimental results confirm the good performance of the proposed scheme for battery charging and discharging control.

In recent years, as the demand for distributed power has increased, the need for microgrids connected to grid power and renewable power generation sources has emerged. In the case of DC microgrids, reactive power does not occur, and power conversion losses are reduced compared to AC when connecting to the load and power grid[2]. With the revitalization of the DC distribution network industry, various studies and demonstrations of DC microgrids have been carried out. In the case of the recent unit distribution, its stability and effectiveness have been verified through empirical and research analysis. However, there is a lack of empirical tests to prevent chain accidents for the protection of the power grid circuits and the misoperation of the distributed power system caused by individual accidents when connecting various distributed power sources and power grids. In this paper, the operation plan of a stable multi-circuit DC distribution connection for the demonstration site was verified through the protection cooperation and operation algorithm for the stable linkage management of the DC distribution network composed of such a multi-circuit.
