Basic design for single-phase active power filter, which aims at railway application provided with PWM-controlled converters, is comprehensively studied and its performance is presented in this paper. Active power filters are used to compensate railway signaling and public telecommunication interference due to the high-order harmonic currents generated in railway traction locomotives. A type of hybrid digital filter which is composed of low pass filter and high pass filter is proposed so that the desired harmonic reference current with accurate magnitude and phase shift can be extracted from catenary line current. A design criteria to determine input inductor L and output capacitor C is also described, considering voltage, current, PWM pattern, and switching frequency of the main converters. Finally, computer simulation and DSP-based experiments resulted from laboratory test are presented.

A three-phase three-level shunt active filter controlled by fuzzy logic current controller which can compensate current harmonics generated by nonlinear loads is presented. Three-level inverters and fuzzy controllers have been successfully employed in several power electronic applications these past years. To improve the conventional pwm controller performance, a new control scheme based on fuzzy current controller is adopted for three-level (NPC) shunt active filter. The scheme is designed to improve compensation capability of APF by adjusting the current error using a fuzzy rule. The inverter current reference signals required to compensate harmonic currents use the synchronous reference detection method. This technique is easy to implement and achieves good results. To maintain the dc voltage across capacitor constant and reduce inverter losses, a proportional integral voltage controller is used. The simulation of global system control and power circuits is performed using Matlab-Simulink and SimPowerSystem toolbox. The results obtained in transient and steady states under various operating conditions show the effectiveness of the proposed shunt active filter based on fuzzy current controller compared to the conventional scheme.

This paper proposes a virtual flux (VF) and positive-sequence power based control strategy to improve the performance of grid-interfaced three-phase voltage source converters against unbalanced and distorted grid conditions. By using a second-order generalized integrator (SOGI) based VF observer, the proposed strategy achieves an AC voltage sensorless and grid frequency adaptive control. Aiming to realize a balanced sinusoidal line current operation, the fundamental positive-sequence component based instantaneous power is utilized as the control variable. Moreover, the fundamental negative-sequence VF feedforward and the harmonic attenuation ability of a sequence component generator are employed to further enhance the unbalance regulation ability and the harmonic tolerance of line currents, respectively. Finally, the proposed scheme is completed by combining the foregoing two elements with a predictive direct power control (PDPC). In order to verify the feasibility and validity of the proposed SOGI-VFPDPC, the scenarios of unbalanced voltage dip, higher harmonic distortion and grid frequency deviation are investigated in simulation and experimental studies. The corresponding results demonstrate that the proposed strategy ensures a balanced sinusoidal line current operation with excellent steady-state and transient behaviors under general grid conditions.

In this paper, the generation of a reference current and voltage signal based on a Kalman filter is offered for a 3-phase 4wire UPQC (Unified Power Quality Conditioner). The performance of the UPQC is improved with source voltages that are distorted due to harmonic components. Despite harmonic and frequency variations, the Kalman filter is capable enough to determine the amplitude and the phase angle of load currents and source voltages. The calculation of the first state is sufficient to identify the fundamental components of the current, voltage and angle. Therefore, the Kalman state estimator is fast and simple. A Kalman based control strategy is proposed and implemented for a UPQC in a distribution system. The performance of the proposed control strategy is assessed for all possible source conditions with varying nonlinear and linear loads. The functioning of the proposed control algorithm with a UPQC is scrutinized and validated through simulations employing MATLAB/Simulink software. Using a FPGA SPATRAN 3A DSP board, the proposed algorithm is developed and implemented. A small-scale laboratory prototype is built to verify the simulation results. The stated control scheme for the UPQC reduces the following issues, voltage sags, voltage swells, harmonic distortions (voltage and current), unbalanced supply voltage and unbalanced power factor under dynamic and steady-state operating conditions.

Recently, multilevel H-bridge inverters have become more popular in medium to high power ac drive applications. One of significant advantages of them is low harmonic contents in their input line currents thanks to the transformer with multiple phase-shifted secondary windings. This paper attempts to provide basic guidelines for the design of the phase shifting transformer windings and theoretical analysis of input line current harmonics.

In the current source inverters (CSI), which are widely used recently in many applications, in order to reduce the harmonic contents in the output line current, twelve-step waveform is synthesized usually by a phase-shifted addition of the output currents of two single CSI's. In this paper a new method of synthesis of the 12-step current waveform is suggested which employes a main and a new auxiliary inverters having lower capacity, and thus is economically advantageous over the conventional scheme. DC-side commutation and energy rebond circuit as described in Part I are also employed in this proposed twelve-step CIS for effective commutation and high reliability. Experimental results are also given in oscillgrams.

A high frequency and soft-switched AC-to-DC rectifier employing a series-type resonant circuit is proposed to overcome the disadvantages of the conventional peak-rectifying circuit. Using the proposed rectifier, the high power factor and low harmonic currents are obtained in the AC line. Furthermore, several advantages such as the high power density and wide output voltage range can be available. Through the simulation and experimental results, the usefulness of the proposed rectifier is verified.

이 연구에서는 2018년 늦은 봄철을 대상으로, 제주도내 위치한 제주와 보목 하수처리장의 해양방류구 주변 해역의 하수처리 방류수의 이동 특성을 파악하기 위하여 다층 유향·유속계 (Acoustic Doppler Current Meter; ADCP)와 지역규모 해양 수치모델의 가상 추적자 실험을 활용한 분석을 수행하였다. ADCP관측 결과에 의하면 두 하수처리장 모두 방류구 인근 해역의 해수 유동은 비조석 성분 보다 조석 성분이 컸고, 조류는 등수심선과 평행한 방향의 왕복성 운동이 지배적이었다. 조화 분석결과는 제주와 보목 하수처리장 해역 모두 반일주기 유속 성분이 우세한 혼합형 조석특성이 지배적이지만, 보목 하수처리장 주변의 유속 세기가 제주 하수처리장 유속의 50% 정도로 느리고, 조류의 회전성이 제주는 시계 방향, 보목의 경우 반시계 방향으로 지역적으로 차이를 보인다. 특히, 보목 하수처리장 방류구 주변해역은 상대적으로 느린 유속과 더불어 잔차류가 등수심선을 가로질러 연안으로 향하기 때문에 해안을 따라 오염물질이 집적되는데 유리한 환경이다. 고해상도 수치실험은 유속·유향 현장 관측 결과와 유사한 해수 유동 특성을 잘 모의하였으며, 오염물질의 이동확산을 파악하기 위한 추적자 실험을 통하여 잔차성분이 연안을 향하는 보목 하수처리장 연안에서 오염물질 잔류량이 상대적으로 높아질 수 있음을 제시하였다. 이러한 결과는 늦은 봄철에 보목 하수처리장 인근 해역이 상대적으로 약한 조류와 연안을 향하는 잔차성분의 영향으로 하수처리 방류수에 의한 연안 오염 가능성이 높은 환경임을 제시하는 결과이다. 퇴적유기물 조사에서도 보목하수처리장 인근 연안은 중간오염 단계를 보임으로써 조석 잔자류에 의한 연안 오염물질 축적과 그에 따른 연안환경오염의 가능성을 뒷받침하고 있다.
