본 논문은 계통연계형 인버터의 병렬 운전 시 생기는 문제점을 해결하기 위한 방안으로 커플링된 필터 인덕터를 제안한다. 이 방식은 필터 인덕터의 전류 리플의 감소효과와 함께 인터리빙 기법을 적용하여 커플링된 필터 인덕터의 출력 전류 리플 또한 감소시킨다. 인덕터 전류의 리플 감소를 통해서 인덕터의 코어손실 감소 효과는 물론이고, 필터 인덕터의 커플링을 통해서 두 개의 인덕터가 하나로 합쳐짐에 따라 그 부피 또한 감소시킬 수 있으며, 병렬 운전하는 인버터간 순환전류 또한 저감되는 효과가 있다. 10kW 시제품을 통해 제안된 방식 우수성을 검증하였다.

This paper proposes the identification method for the faulted feeder, where it identify whether the faulted feeder is the DG-connected feeder or the neighboring feeder (but sharing the same bus of the substation). In general, DG has to be disconnected from the grid when the fault occurs on the interconnected distribution feeder as soon as possible. However, the faults occured on the neghboring feeder would mistakenly cause the disconnection of the DG. For reliable operation of DG, DG should be sustained at the fault occurred on neighboring distribution feeders. The proposed identification method utilizes the impedance monitored from the DG and examines the coordination of overcurrent relay of the distribution system. This paper describes how the proposed method to identify the faulted feeder and how the method can be utilized.

최근 푸드트럭, 캠핑, 레저활동 등 계통전원이 없는 환경에서 전력공급이 가능한 독립형 인버터 사용이 늘어났다. 그리고 다양한 전자기기 사용 증가로 전기사용량이 늘어났으며 이에 소비자들은 날로 증가하는 전기 요금을 줄이기 위해 태양광 패널을 설치하는 등 계통연계 인버터에 대한 관심 또한 증가하고 있다. 기존 독립형 인버터 및 계통연계 인버터는 각각의 동작만 수행할 뿐 호환 기능은 없다. 따라서 소비자들은 사용용도에 맞춰 각각의 제품을 사야하는 단점이 있다. 이에 본 논문은 기존 단점을 보완하는 독립형, 계통연계형 호환형 인버터를 제안하고 실제 제품에 적용시켜 운용방안을 모색하고 동작 검증을 하였다.

본 논문은 LCL 필터를 사용하는 계통연계형 인버터의 병렬운전 조건에서 LCL 필터와 계통 임피던스 간의 상호간섭에 따른 공진특성을 분석하였으며, 시뮬레이션 및 실험을 통해 검증하였다. 인버터 병렬운전은 2대 조건을 고려하였으며, LCL 필터를 포함한 시스템 파라미터는 동일 조건으로 설정하였다. PCC 지점에 인버터 병렬운전 조건 시, 계통 임피던스 존재로 인해 각 인버터의 LCL 필터 간 상호간섭 영향이 발생하며 필터 공진주파수의 이동은 인버터 병렬연결 수와 계통 임피던스 크기와의 연관성을 분석하였다. PSIM을 통해 시뮬레이션하고, MATLAB/SIMULINK 2018a를 통해 검증한다. 실시간 디지털 시뮬레이터와 DSP 28377 제어보드 연동을 통해 2대 인버터 병렬운전 조건에서의 상호간섭 특성을 실험하였으며, 분석결과와 동일한 실험결과를 도출함으로써 해석의 타당성을 검증하였다.

This work mainly discusses an accurate and fast islanding detection based on fractional wavelet packet transform (FRWPT)for multibus microgrid systems. The proposed protection scheme uses combined desirable features retrieved from discrete fractional Fourier transform (FRFT) and wavelet packet transform (WPT) techniques, which provides precise time-frequency information on minute perturbation signals introduced in the system. Moreover, this study focuses on the design of decoupling control with a distributed controller based on state feedback for the efficient operation of microgrid systems that are transitioning from the grid-connected mode to the islanded mode. An IEEE 9-bus test system with inverter based distributed generation (DG) units is considered for islanding assessment and smooth operation. Finally, tracking errors are greatly reduced with stability improvement based on the proposed controller. FRWPT based islanding detection is demonstrated via a time domain simulation of the system. Simulated results show an improvement in system stability with the application of the proposed controller and accurate islanding detection based on the FRWPT technique in comparison with the results obtained by applying the wavelet transform (WT) and WPT.

This paper proposes the adaptive relaying of protective devices applied in the neighboring distribution feeders for reliable and efficient operations of a wind farm interconnected with distribution networks by dedicated lines. A wind farm connected to an electric power network is one of the greatest alternative energy sources. However, the wind turbine generators are influenced by abnormal grid conditions such as disturbances occurring in the neighboring distribution feeders as well as the dedicated power. Particularly, in cases of a fault happening in the neighboring distribution feeders, a wind farm might be accelerated until protective devices clear the fault. Therefore, the delayed operation time of protective devices for satisfying the coordination might overly expose the interconnected wind turbine generators to the fault and cause damage to them. This paper describes the proper delayed operation time of protective relay satisfying the coordination of the distribution networks as well as reducing damage on the interconnected wind farm. The simulation results for the Hoenggye substation model composed of five feeders and one dedicated line using PSCAD/EMTDC showed that the proper delayed time of protective devices reflecting the fault condition and the power output of the wind farm could improve the operational reliability, efficiency, and stability of the wind farm.

The microgrid system is the combination of photovoltaic(PV) array, load, and battery energy storage system. The control strategies were defined as multi-modes of operation, including rest operation without use of battery, power charging, and power discharging, which enables grid connected mode or islanded mode. Photovoltaic power is a problem of the uniformity of power quality because the power generated from solar light is very sensitive to variation of insolation and duration of sunshine. As a solution to the above problem, energy storage system(ESS) is considered generally. There fore, in this study, we did basic research activities about optimization method of the amount of energy used, using a smart microgrid test-bed constructed in building. First, we analyzed the daily, monthly and period energy pattern amount of power energy used, and analyzed PV power generation level which is built on the roof. Utilizing building energy pattern analysis data, we was studied an efficient method of employing the ESS about building power consumption pattern and PV generation.

Recently, with the rise of environmental issues and the change of government policy (Renewable Energy 3020 Implementation Plan), a large amount of renewable energy such as solar and wind power is connected to the power system, and most of the renewable energy is concentrated in the power distribution network. This causes many problems with the voltage management and the protection coordination of the grid due to the its intermittent power generation. In order to effectively operate the distribution network, it is necessary to deploy more intelligent terminal devices in the field to measure the status of the distribution network and develop various operation functions such as visualization and big data analysis to support the power distribution system operators. In addition, the failover technology must be supported for the non-stop operation of the power distribution system. This paper proposes the system architecture of new power distribution management system to cope with high penetration of renewable energy. To verify the proposed system architecture, the functional unit test and performance measurement were performed.
