This paper investigates a new approach based on the fuzzy-logic controlled methodology that is suitable for analyzing and evaluating large format $LiMn_2O_4$ cell performance via online state-of-health (SOH) estimation for energy storage system (ESS) applications. First of all, the values of the cell resistance R and maximum cell capacity $Q_{max}$ are calculated from three factors such as voltage, current, and time that were measured by discharging/charging sequence. Then, using two values R and $Q_{max}$ previously calculated, present SOH of an arbitrary $LiMn_2O_4$ cell can be estimated using the defined fuzzy-logic inference system. The main advantage of this approach is wide parameters tuning possibility for good correspondence of SOH decay with other accurate estimation method and the possibility to perform suitable online SOH estimation.

When ESS(Energy Storage System) is under normal operation, island situation can be occur because of grid accidents. When island operation occur, the system mode switches in to UPS(Uninterruptible Power Supply) mode to supply stabled load power. To decide island operation, checking grid magnitude or frequency is general. But regulation for sag and swell is required. In this paper, it proposes grid connection error detection algorithm for UPS operation when sag and swell occurs in grid, and analyzed by simulation.

최근 전기차 배터리는 일 주행거리 증대를 위해서 50~100 kWh 급으로 대용량화 되고 있다. 그와 동시에 충전시간 단축을 위해서 배터리 전압은 400V에서 800V로 높아지고 급속충전기 용량은 50kW에서 350kW 급으로 대용량화 되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 전기차 증가 추세에 따라 기존 주유소를 대체하는 MW급 전기차 급속충전소를 위한 에너지 저장 장치(Energy Storage System, ESS) 연계 지능형 반도체 변압기(Solid State Transformer, SST) 기술 기반의 전력변환 시스템 모델을 제안하고자 한다. 이 모델은 배전계통에 직접 연계가 가능하기 때문에 대용량 전기차 급속충전소뿐만 아니라 DC Grid 구축에 응용 가능하다.

The multigroup transport theory is the basis for many neutronics modules. A significant point of the cross-section (XS) generation procedure is the choice of the energy groups' boundaries in the XS libraries, which must be carefully selected as an unsuitable energy meshing can easily lead to inaccurate results. This decision can require considerable effort and is particularly difficult for the common user, especially if not well-versed in reactor physics. This work investigates a genetic algorithm-based tool which selects an appropriate XS energy structure (ES) specific for the considered problem, to be used for the condensation of a fine multigroup library. The procedure is accelerated by results storage and fitness calculation speedup and can be easily parallelized. The extension is applied to the coupled code SIMMER and tested on the European Sustainable Nuclear Industrial Initiative (ESNII+) Advanced Sodium Technological Reactor for Industrial Demonstration (ASTRID)-like reactor system with different fitness functions. The results show that, when the libraries are condensed based on the ESs suggested by the algorithm, the code actually returns the correct multiplication factor, in both reference and voided conditions. The computational effort reduction obtained by using the condensed library rather than the fine one is assessed and is much higher than the time required for the ES search.

In many countries, such as developing countries where electricity is scarce, small wind turbines in the form of Off Grid are an effective solution to solve power supply problems. In some countries, the expansion of power systems and the decline of electricity-intensive areas have led to the use of small wind power in urban road lighting, mobile communications base stations, aquaculture and seawater desalination. With this change, the size of the small wind power industry is expected to have greater potential than large-scale wind power. In the case of small wind power generators, the generator is controlled at a variable speed, and the voltage and current generated by the generator have many harmonic components. To solve this problem, the AC to DC converter to be studied in this paper is a three-phase step-up type converter with a single switch. The inductor current is controlled in discontinuous mode, and has a characteristic of having a unit power factor by eliminating the harmonic of the input current. The proposed converter is composed of LCL filter and three phase rectification boost converter at the input stage and a single phase full bridge for grid connection. It is a control system with energy storage system(ESS) that the system stabilization can be pursued against the electric power.

This study quantitatively assessed the environmental impacts of fuel cell (FC) systems by performing life cycle assessment (LCA) and analyzed their energy efficiencies based on energy return on investment (EROI) and electrical energy stored on investment (ESOI). Molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC) system and polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) system were selected as the fuel cell systems. Five different paths to produce hydrogen ($H_2$) as fuel such as natural gas steam reforming (NGSR), centralized naptha SR (NSR(C)), NSR station (NSR(S)), liquified petroleum gas SR (LPGSR), water electrolysis (WE) were each applied to the FCs. The environmental impacts and the energy efficiencies of the FCs were compared with rechargeable batteries such as $LiFePO_4$ (LFP) and Nickel-metal hydride (Ni-MH). The LCA results show that MCFC_NSR(C) and PEMFC_NSR(C) have the lowest global warming potential (GWP) with 6.23E-02 kg $CO_2$ eq./MJ electricity and 6.84E-02 kg $CO_2$ eq./MJ electricity, respectively. For the impact category of abiotic resource depletion potential (ADP), MCFC_NGSR(S) and PEMFC_NGSR(S) show the lowest impacts of 7.42E-01 g Sb eq./MJ electricity and 7.19E-01 g Sb eq./MJ electricity, respectively. And, the energy efficiencies of the FCs are higher than those of the rechargeable batteries except for the case of hydrogen produced by WE.

에너지 저장 시스템(ESS, Energy Storage System)은 태양광(PV), 풍력(WT) 등과 같은 신재생 에너지 출력안정화, 계통 전력품질 개선, 수용가 에너지효율화 등의 분야에 이용되고 있다. 에너지 저장 시스템은 전력변환장치와 에너지 저장장치로 구성되며, 에너지 저장 장치로 배터리를 많이 사용하고 있다. 전력변환장치 및 제어기의 설계 및 검증을 위해서는 배터리를 전력변환장치에 연계하여야 하지만 배터리의 경우 고가에 관리가 어렵기 때문에 일반적으로 DC전원 모의 장치를 이용한다. 또한 배터리를 사용함에 따라 노화가 진행되어 배터리 임피던스 특성이 변화해 에너지 저장 시스템의 성능에 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 에너지 저장 시스템용 전력 변환장치 및 제어기의 설계 및 현실적인 검증이 가능한 배터리 노화 특성을 고려한 DC전원 모의장치를 개발하기 위한 연구를 진행하였다.
