This paper presents an application of proportional-resonant (PR) current controllers in modular multilevel converter-high voltage direct current (MMC-HVDC) system under unbalanced voltage conditions. The ac currents are transformed and controlled in the stationary reference frame (${\alpha}{\beta}$-frame). Thus, the complex analysis of the positive and negative sequence components in the synchronous rotating reference frame (dq-frame) is not necessary. With this control method, the ac currents are kept balanced and the dc-link voltage is constant under the unbalanced voltage fault conditions. The simulation results based on a detailed PSCAD/EMTDC model confirm the effectiveness of the proposed control method.

This paper proposes the installation of a new modular multilevel converter based high-voltage direct current (MMC-HVDC) system to connect between mainland and Jeju island power systems in Korea in 2020. The purpose is to combine with two old line-commutated converters (LCC)-based HVDC system to achieve a stability of the Jeju island power system. The operation of the overall system will be analyzed in three cases: (i) wind speed is variable, (ii) either one of the LCC-HVDC systems is shutdown because of a fault or overhaul, (iii) a short circuit fault occurs at the mainland side. The effectiveness of the proposed control method is confirmed by the simulation results based on a PSCAD/EMTDC simulation program.

This paper presents the analysis of series active power filter for reactive power compensation, load balancing, harmonic elimination, and neutral current eradication in three-phase four-wire power systems. Generally, the three-phase four-wire system is widely employed in distributing electric energy to several office building and manufacturing plants. In such systems, the third harmonic and its 3rd harmonics are termed as triple and zero sequence components that do not cancel each other in the system neutral. Consequently, the triple harmonics add together creating a primary source of excessive neutral current. Regarding this concern, this paper presents a new control algorithm for a series hybrid active system, whereas the control approach it adopts directly influence its compensation characteristics. Hence, the advantage of this control algorithm is the direct extraction of compensation voltage reference without phase transformations and multiplying harmonic current value by gain and the required rating of the series active filter is much smaller than that of a conventional shunt active power filter. In order to show the effectiveness of the proposed control algorithm, experiments have been carried out.

금속성 도선 뿐 아니라 기상 또는 액상의 직류전류를 계측하기 위해서는 비접촉으로 전류를 측정할 필요가 있다. 본 논문은 직류전류를 비접촉으로 계측하기 위한 방법 중 하나로써 패러데이효과와 누설자속을 이용하는 방법을 제안하고, 이론적 고찰 및 실험적 검증결과를 보고한다. 공극을 가진 강자성체 코어를 1차 코일에 의하여 자화하면, 공극 주위에는 누설자속이 발생한다. 이러한 누설자속의 수직성분에 의하여 자기광학소자의 자구는 자화되어, 공극의 중심과 자벽은 평행하게 된다. 한편, 2차 코일에 의하여 자기광학소자에 수직한 방향으로 자장을 인가하면, 누설자속분포는 공극의 중심을 기준으로 좌우 대칭이었던 자구의 분포에 편향이 발생한다. 이때 금속, 기체 또는 액체상태의 전류가 코어를 통과하면 자기광학소자의 자벽이 이동하게 된다. 이러한 원리에 의하여 자구 또는 자벽의 이동량을 측정하면, 코어를 통과하는 직류전류의 세기를 알 수 있다.

This paper proposes the design and implementation of a direct torque controlled induction motor drive system. The method is based on control of decoupling between amplitude and angle of reference stator flux for determining reference stator voltage vector in generating PWM output voltage for induction motors. The objective is to reduce electromagnetic torque ripple and stator flux droop which result in a decrease in current distortion in steady state condition. In addition, the proposed technique provides simplicity of a control system. The direct torque control is based on the relationship between instantaneous slip angular frequency and rotor angular frequency in adjustment of the reference stator flux angle. The amplitude of the reference stator flux is always kept constant at rated value. Experimental results are illustrated in this paper confirming the capability of the proposed system in regards to such issues as torque and stator flux response, stator phase current distortion both in dynamic and steady state with load variation, and low speed operation.

The effect of sensor faults in direct torque control(DTC) based induction motor drives is analyzed and a new Instrument fault detection isolation scheme(IFDIS) is proposed. The proposed IFDIS, which operated in real-time, detects and isolates the incipient fault(s) of speed sensor and current sensors that provide the feedback information. The scheme consists of an adaptive gain scheduling observer as a residual generator and a special sequential test logic unit. The observer provides not only the estimate of stator flux, a key variable in DTC system, but also the estimates of stator current and rotor speed that are useful for fault detection. With the test logic, the IFDIS has the functionality of fault isolation that only multiple estimator based IFDIS schemes can have. Simulation results for various type of sensor faults show the detection and isolation performance of the IFDIS and the applicability of this scheme to fault tolerant control system design.

"Act on Facilitation of Purchase of Small and Medium Enterprise - Manufactured Products and Support for Development of Their Markets" was created and implemented. The act states that the materials designated by the Small and Medium Business Administration are directly purchased from the small and medium enterprises and provided to the construction companies so that the materials can be provided as GFGI (Government Furnished and Government Installed) in the case of a public construction project. This thesis is aimed to analyze the current status on the problems of each project party and understand their improvement requests so that mutually beneficial plans can be sought and improved process is presented for the continuous development of the direct construction material purchase system as well as successful construction projects. And This thesis summarized the purpose of the institutions and their change histories, and related law as well as codes for the better understanding of administrative procedures for the purchase system and the analyses as well as the improved process on the difficulties in complying with the current institutions.

The introduction of a high-voltage direct-current (HVDC) system based on a modular multilevel converter (MMC) for wind farm integration has stimulated studies on methods to control this type of converter. This research article focuses on the control of the AC voltage and circulating current for a wind-farm-side MMC (WFS-MMC). After theoretical analysis, emotional learning (EL) controllers are proposed for the controls. The EL controllers are derived from the learning mechanisms of the amygdala and orbitofrontal cortex which make the WFS-MMC insensitive to variance in system parameters, power change, and fault in the grid. The d-axis and q-axis currents are respectively considered for the d-axis and q-axis voltage controls to improve the performance of AC voltage control. The practicability of the proposed control is verified under various conditions with a point-to-point MMC-HVDC system. Simulation results show that the proposed method is superior to the traditional proportional-integral controller.

Demand for reliability and safety in modem systems has been increased in the research on fault detection and isolation. At traditional approaches to fault detection, redundant sensors have been used. More advanced methods are the residual analysis of signals which are created by the comparison between the actual plant behavior and the output response of a mathematical model. However, mathematical system models are difficult to obtain by using physical laws. These problems can be solved by system identification. In this paper, the transfer function of a direct current motor is estimated by using the system identification. And, the efficiency of the fault detector design is verified by using experiments.
