  • In this paper, a hardware-in-the-loop simulation platform for MMCs is established, which connects a real time digital simulator (RTDS) and a designed MMC controller with optical fiber. In this platform, the converter valves are simulated with a small time step of 2.5 microsecond in the RTDS, and multicore technology is implemented for the controller so that the parallel valve control is distributed between different cores. Therefore, the designed controller can satisfy the requirements of real-time control. The functions of the designed platform and the rationality for the designed controller are verified through experimental tests. The results show that different modulation modes and various control strategies can be implemented in the simulation platform and that each control objective can been tracked accurately and with a fast dynamic response.

  • This paper addresses the establishment of a kVA-range plug-in hybrid electrical vehicle (PHEV) integration test platform and associated issues. Advancements in battery and power electronic technology, hybrid vehicles are becoming increasingly dependent on the electrical energy provided by the batteries. Minimal or no support by the internal combustion engine may result in the vehicle being occasionally unable to recharge the batteries during highly dynamic driving that occurs in urban areas. The inability to sustain its own energy source creates a situation where the vehicle must connect to the electrical grid in order to recharge its batteries. The effects of a large penetration of electric vehicles connected into the grid are still relatively unknown. This paper presents a novel methodology that will be utilized to study the effects of PHEV charging at the sub-transmission level. The proposed test platform utilizes the power hardware-in-the-loop (PHIL) concept in conjunction with high-fidelity PHEV energy system simulation models. The battery, in particular, is simulated utilizing a real-time digital simulator ($RTDS^{TM}$) which generates appropriate control commands to a power electronics-based voltage amplifier that interfaces via a LC-LC-type filter to a power grid. In addition, the PHEV impact is evaluated via another power electronic converter controlled through $dSPACE^{TM}$, a rapid control systems prototyping software.

  • This paper proposes an L1 cache prefetch scheme using an excessively aggressive hardware prefetcher and a hardware prefetch filter having a small direct-mapped filtering cache. A quantitative analysis method has been introduced and applied to analyze nonideal effects of aggressive cache prefetching. From those analysis results, the structure and algorithm of a prefetch filter has been derived and simulated, and the overall system performance has been measured using a cycle-by-cycle cache simulator. Experimental results show that the proposed scheme improves the overall system performance by 18% on the average over several benchmarks

  • ITER AC/DC Converter의 부하는 초전도 코일이며 이에 필요한 컨버터는 총 6종류(2상한:TF, 4상한:PF, CS, VS, CCU/L, CCS)가 있다. 이중 VS 컨버터(${\pm}1050V$, ${\pm}22.5kA$)는 6대가 직렬로 접속되어 운전되고 CS 컨버터(${\pm}1050V$, ${\pm}4.5kA$)는 4대가 직렬로 접속되어 운전한다. 이들 컨버터용 제어기의 개발 단계에서 실 부하상태를 준비하는 것은 어렵기 때문에 $RTDS^{TM}$ (Real Time Digital Simulator)를 이용하여 제어 대상인 High Power 부분과 초전도 코일의 동적 시스템 모델을 HILS(Hardware-in-the-Loop Simulation)로 구축하였다. 본 논문에서는 HILS 구축에 대한 상세한 내용과 이를 활용하여 Control 시스템을 검증한 결과를 서술하였다.

  • This paper describes the optimal sizing of each component using computer simulation and presents the efficient operating scheme of series HEV using hardware simulator the equivalent system. As the sizing method of components have been experimental and empirical it is needed to spend much time and development cost. however the results of computer simulation will set the optimal sizing of components in short time. There are two type of driving control power-tracking mode and load-levelling mode in series HEV. This paper presents that series HEV be operated in the load-levelling mode which is more efficient that power-tracking mode.
