본 논문에서는 배터리 팩을 구성하는데 있어 높은 전압의 직렬 연결된 배터리 모듈의 병렬 연결에서 발생할 수 있는 순환 전류를 제거하는 방법을 제시하였다. 제거 방법은 배터리 팩의 구성상에 있어서 양방향 DCDC 컨버터와 슈퍼 캐패시터를 이용한 VVSM(Variable Voltage Variable Module)이라고 명명한 모듈을 직렬 연결된 배터리 셀들 중 하나 대신에 삽입하는 방식인데 VVSM은 이 모듈에서 마치 우리가 원하는 전압으로 제어할 수 있는 배터리 셀처럼 동작한다. 전압을 가변할 수 있는 배터리 셀(VVSM)을 이용하여 직렬 연결된 배터리 모듈의 전압을 아주 손쉽게 일치시킬 수 있었다. 제시한 방법을 증명하기 위해 배터리를 모형화한 모델을 이용하여 모의 실험을 시행 하였다. 또한 직렬 연결된 배터리 셀 만으로 된 모듈과 제안한 VVSM이 적용된 모듈을 실제 제작하여 두 모듈을 병렬 연결하여 둘 사이에 순환 전류를 측정하여 비교함으로써 제안된 방법이 효과적으로 순환 전류을 억제할 수 있음을 검증하였다.

This paper proposes an isolated DCDC converter that consists of unregulated LLC resonant converter and non-isolated synchronous buck converter for battery charger of energy storage systems application. The unregulated converter operates as transformer with fixed duty ratio and switching frequency. The synchronous buck converter is installed in the output of the LLC resonant converter. And the converter charges and discharges the battery by controlling a current of battery. The proposed converter can get the high efficiency by separating function. This paper explains design of an unregulated converter and synchronous converter.

The neutral beam injection generate ultra-high temperature energy in the tokamak of nuclear fusion. The neutral beam injection make up arc power supply, filament power supply and acceleration & deceleration power supply. The arc power supply has characteristics of low voltage and high current. Arc power supply generate arc through constant output of voltage and current. So this paper proposed suitable buck converter for low voltage and high current. The proposed buck converter used parallel switch because it can be increased capacity and decrease conduction loss. When an arc generated, the neutral beam injection chamber occur high voltage. And it will break output capacitor of buck converter. Therefore the output capacitor was removed in the proposed converter. Thus the proposed converter should be designed for the characteristics of low voltage and high current. Also, the arc power supply should be guaranteed for system stability. The proposed parallel buck converter enables the system stability of the divided low output voltage and high current. The proposed converter with constant output be the most important design of the output inductor. In this paper, designed arc power supply verified operation of system and stability through simulation and prototype. After it is applied to the 288[kW] arc power supply for neutral beam injection.

To elucidate possible challenges for outdoor practical use of dye-sensitized solar cells(DSC), compared with conventional Si solar cells. DSC modules still need the larger area than conventional Si solar modules to attain the same rated output because of lower photoelectron-chemical conversion efficiency. However, using batteries backup systems, the measured data shows that DSCs gathered over 12% more electricity than Si solar cells of the same rated output power in same outdoor condition. Moreover, battery charging time of DSC is about 1 hour faster than same rate of Si solar module. In this paper, 12 single DSC cells prepared for 4 serialized DSC cells was connected in 3 row parallel which have same output power rate of Si solar module. This DSC module was practiced generating characteristic experiment over outdoor daylight condition and applied with PV battery charger by using DC-DC converter. The main advantages of DSC module battery charger as compared with conventional Si solar module one are shorter charge time and lower cost.
