  • This paper presents the operation of Fuel Cell Distributed Generation(FCDG) systems in distribution systems. Hence, modeling, controller design, and simulation study of a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell(SOFC) distributed generation(DG) system are investigated. The physical model of the fuel cell stack and dynamic models of power conditioning units are described. Then, suitable control architecture based on fuzzy logic and the neural network for the overall system is presented in order to activate power control and power quality improvement. A MATLAB/Simulink simulation model is developed for the SOFC DG system by combining the individual component models and the controllers designed for the power conditioning units. Simulation results are given to show the overall system performance including active power control and voltage regulation capability of the distribution system.

  • For conventional AESA radars, DC-DC power modules using 300 Vdc have low efficiency, high volume, heavy weight, and high price, which have problems in modularity with T/R module groups. In this paper, to improve these problems, we propose a distributed DC-DC power module with high-voltage 800 Vdc and high-efficiency Step-down Converter. In particular, power requirements for modern and future marine weapons systems and sensors are rapidly evolving into high-energy and high-voltage power systems. The power distribution of the next generation Navy AESA radar antenna is under development with 1000 Vdc. In this paper, the proposed highvoltage, high-efficiency DC-DC power modules increase space(size), weight, power and cooling(SWaP-C) margins, reduce integration costs/risk, and reduce maintenance costs. Reduced system weight and higher reliability are achieved in navy and ground AESA systems. In addition, the proposed architecture will be easier to scale with larger shipboard radars and applicable to other platforms.

  • The control architectures of Chuan Suo (CS) deep submergence rescue vehicle are introduced. The hardware and software architectures are also discussed. The hardware part adopts a distributed control system composed of surface and underwater nodes. A computer is used as a surface control machine. Underwater equipment is based on a multi-board-embedded industrial computer with PC104 BUS, which contains IO, A/D, D/A, eight-channel serial, and power boards. The hardware and software parts complete data transmission through optical fibers. The software part involves an IPC of embedded Vxworks real-time operating system, upon which the operation of I/O, A/D, and D/A boards and serial ports is based on; this setup improves the real-time manipulation. The information flow is controlled by the software part, and the thrust distribution is introduced. A submergence vehicle heeling control method based on ballast water tank regulation is introduced to meet the special heeling requirements of the submergence rescue vehicle during docking. Finally, the feasibility and reliability of the entire system are verified by a pool test.

  • Recently, the smart grid (SG) has been introduced to solve the serious network issues caused by the increasing electrical demand and the complex nonlinear nature of the electric power distribution network. The SG, regarded as the next generation power grid, can transmit power in more efficient ways by building an automatic and distributed energy delivery network. In this paper, we first assess how various existing networking technologies, such as IEEE 802.11 (WiFi) and IEEE 802.15.4 (ZigBee), meet the requirements of the SG communication protocols. Specifically, we classify the existing network protocols into three categories: WSN-based networking, WiFi-based networking, and wireline-based networking. We then survey the security issues regarding the SG. Finally, we propose an agile SG networking architecture and show the effectiveness of different adopted networking technologies and, as a result, present a candidate solution to implement agile networking in SGs.

  • As the power grids are integrated into one big umbrella called a "smart grid," communication protocol plays a key role in successful operations. The successful deployment of smart grid interoperability is a major hurdle that must be overcome. The micro grid, a small power system that distributes energy resource, is operated in diverse regions. Different vendors use different communication protocols in the operation of the micro grid. Recently, the IEC 61850 has been legislated to solve the interoperability problems in power utility automation. The present paper presents a micro grid system based on the IEC 61850 protocol. It consists of a micro grid monitoring system, a protocol converter that transforms serial data to IEC 61850 data, and distributed energy resource controllers for diverse DER nodes. A developed communication gateway can be deployed for DER controllers with serial links to exchange data with IEC 61850-based devices. The gateway can be extended to IEC 61850-based distribution automation systems, substation automation systems, or SCADA.

  • Smart grid is a fully-automated, bi-directional, power transmission network based on the physical grid system, which combines sensor measurement, computer, information communication, and automatic control technology. Blockchain technology, with its security features, can be integrated with Smart Grids to provide secure and efficient power management and transmission. This paper dicusses the deployment of Blockchain technology in Smart Grid. It presents application areas and protocols in which blockchain can be applied to in securing smart grid. One application of each area is explored in detail, such as efficient peer-to-peer transaction, lower platform costs, faster processes, greater flexibility in power generation to transmission, distribution and power consumption in different energy storage systems, current barriers obstructing the implementation of blockchain applications with some level of maturity in financial services but concepts only in energy and other sectors. Wide range of energy applications suggesting a suitable blockchain architecture in smart grid operations, a sample block structure and the potential blockchain technicalities employed in it. Also, added with efficient data aggregation schemes based on the blockchain technology to overcome the challenges related to privacy and security in the smart grid. Later on, consensus algorithms and protocols are discussed. Monitoring of the usage and statistics of energy distribution systems that can also be used to remotely control energy flow to a particular area. Further, the discussion on the blockchain-based frameworks that helps in the diagnosis and maintenance of smart grid equipment. We have also discussed several commercial implementations of blockchain in the smart grid. Finally, various challenges have been discussed for integrating these technologies. Overall, it can be said at the present point in time that blockchain technology certainly shows a lot of potentials from a customer perspective too and should be further developed by market participants. The approaches seen thus far may have a disruptive effect in the future and might require additional regulatory intervention in an already tightly regulated energy market. If blockchains are to deliver benefits for consumers (whether as consumers or prosumers of energy), a strong focus on consumer issues will be needed.

  • 이상고온 현상으로 전력수요가 예측치를 초과하여 대규모 정전사태가 발생하고 있다. 과밀화된 도시의 경우, 예상치 못한 에너지 수급 차질은 막대한 경제적 피해를 초래하고 도시기능을 마비시키는 중요한 위협요소이다. 기존 비상전력 수요량을 추정하는 방법은 도시의 공간적 차원에서 현실적 수요량을 추정할 수 없어 비상시 예비전력 관리가 용이하지 않다. 본 논문은 도시의 공간정보와 건축물 용도별 평상시 에너지소비 원단위, 비상시 전력수요 원단위를 활용하여 비상전력수요의 공간적 분포를 규명하고, 이를 활용하여 비상전력 수요량을 예측하는 방법론을 제시한다.

  • 집중 원격감시 제어 또는 감시제어 데이터 수집 시스템인 SCADA(Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) 는 기존의 국지적인 산업용 네트워크 기반의 제어시스템이 정보통신 기술의 발전으로 광역화되면서 전력, 가스, 상하수도, 교통시스템 등 주요 기반시설에 적용되어 분산제어와 공정제어 시스템으로 사용되고 있다. SCADA 시스템의 중요성과 사고시 미치는 파급효과를 고려하여 구성 장치 및 통신 설비들에 대한 사이버 보안(cyber security) 인식이 점차 높아지고 있으며, SCADA 시스템의 취약성 분석과 보안성 확보에 대한 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 현장에서 운용중인 상용 SCADA 시스템의 계층구조와 통신 사양 및 규약을 고려하여 보안성 평가를 위한 테스트베드를 제안하고자 한다. 특히 계측 제어 명령을 수행하는 RTU, IED와 같은 단말 장치의 직렬통신 구간에서 보안성 평가를 수행하기 위한 물리적 접속과 평가 절차를 제시하였다.

  • 태양광발전은 독립전원으로써의 가치는 미미하나 도시전체의 탄소발생량 저감 및 화석연료 사용 저감을 위한 분산전원으로써 가치가 매우 높은 전력원이다. 하지만 태양광발전의 경우 기상조건에 따른 발전량 변동이 심하기에 분산전원으로써 효율적으로 사용하기 위해서는 큰 변동폭을 효과적으로 제어하기 위한 실시간 모니터링이 이루어져야 한다. 하지만 태양광발전량을 좌우하는 일사량은 예측치가 존재하지 않기에 이를 예측해야 하고 본 연구에서는 과거의 일사량을 직산분리 하여 구름의 짙은 정도나 두께 등을 유추할 수 있는 대기투과율을 일기예보에서 발표하는 날씨별로 대푯값을 산정하고 이를 일사량 예측식에 대입하여 일사량을 예측하였다. 그리고 실측 일사량 및 CRM(Cloud Cover Radiation Model)기법인 Kasten and Czeplak의 식을 통해 계산된 예측일사량과의 비교를 통해 검증하였다.

  • 본 연구에서는 3차원 수치조파수조기법을 이용하여 연안 구조물로 인한 파동장의 변화가 진동수주 파력발전장치의 유체동역학적 성능에 미치는 영향에 대한 분석을 수행하였다. 진동수주 파력발전장치는 선형 압력강하모델을 도입을 통해 시간에 따른 터빈-진동수주실간의 연성효과를 고려하여 수치적으로 모사하였다. 방파제 모델의 고려유무에 따라 반사특성의 변화로 인해 진동수주실 주변의 유동분포는 서로 다른 것으로 나타났다. 방파제로부터 포획된 파랑에너지는 방파제 전면의 평면상에 공간적으로 분포되었는데, 진동수주실 전면에 집중된 경우에 변환된 공력발전량은 급격히 높아졌다. 정상파 분포의 변화는 입사파장과 방파제의 길이의 관계에 따라 반복적으로 나타났으며, 이로 인한 진동수주실의 에너지변환 성능의 차이를 확인하였다.
