PV (Photovoltaic) power generation system has been widely studied as a clean and renewable power source. Tracking the MPP (maximum power point) of a PV array is usually an essential part of a PV system. This paper describes POS (Photovoltaic Output Sensorless) MPPT method and optimization technique of its operational characteristics for grid-connected PV generation system. A DC-DC converter has been used to step-up the PV voltage and DC-AC converter has been used for connecting the system to the grid. Optimization technique has been implemented to optimize the current and voltage controller gain parameters and duty ratio increment of DC-DC converter. Simulation results reveal that the proposed control has better response.

The micro-perforated panel absorber(MPPA) is one of promising noise control elements because of its applicability to extreme environments where general porous materials cannot be used. Since the MPPA is inherently non-porous sound absorber, it can be a good candidate of acoustic protection system of a space launcher. The overall sound pressure level inside payload fairings of commercial launch vehicles is so high(around 140 dB OASPL) that the conventional linear impedance model cannot be directly applied to the design of the acoustic protection systems. In this paper an acoustic impedance models of a micro-perforated panel absorber at high sound pressure environment were reviewed and the use of the impedance on the practical design of MPPAs was addressed. The variation of absorption characteristics of MPPA was discussed according to the design parameters, e.g., perforation ratio, the minute hole diameter, the thickness of MPP and the incident sound pressure level.

A flyback inverter using voltage sensorless maximum power point tracking (MPPT) for photovoltaic (PV) AC modules is presented. PV AC modules for a power rating from 150 W to 300 W are generally required for their small size and low price because of the installation on the back side of PV modules. In the conventional MPPT technique for PV AC modules, sensors for detecting PV voltage and PV current are required to calculate the PV output power. However, system size and cost increase when the voltage sensor and current sensor are used because of the addition of the auxiliary circuit for the sensors. The proposed method uses only the current sensor to track the MPP point. Therefore, the proposed control method overcomes drawbacks of the conventional control method. Theoretical analysis, simulation, and experiment are performed to verify the proposed control method.

본 논문에서는 하나의 태양광 모듈에 대한 전력 변환기인 마이크로 컨버터의 개발을 목표로 하고 있다. 중앙집중형 태양광발전시스템이 부분적인 음영에 의해서 성능저하가 발생하는데 반해 단일 태양광모듈의 전력변환기는 태양광모듈의 발전량을 최대화 할 수 있다. 전력 변환기는 지속적으로 각 모듈의 최대 전력 점을 추적하여 태양 광 발전 시스템의 에너지 출력을 증가시킨다. 태양광 전력 변환기의 반도체 스위치 및 외부 장치의 수를 최소화하고, 또한 동기 정류기를 사용하여, 320W급의 태양광 마이크로 컨버터를 개발하였으며, 시뮬레이션과 실험에 적용하여 효율성을 검증하였다.

녹색에너지의 모델링과 시뮬레이션은 연구하고자 하는 시스템의 형태에 따라 크게 의존한다. 모델링과 시뮬레이션의 주요내용은 반도체 물리(태양전지), 전기모터/발전기(풍력터빈), 전형적인 제어전략에 의한 전력전자(계통연계)등 매우 다양하다. 이들 기술들을 정확하게 모델링하는 것은 다양한 시뮬레이션 기술과 많은 모델들을 필요로 한다. 시뮬레이션을 더욱 정확하게 혹은 상세하게 하기 위해서 모델링은 특정레벨 즉, 시스템, 회로, 요소 레벨 등으로 수행하여야 한다. 다양한 레벨의 조합은 모델 방정식과 이용 가능한 매개변수들에 대한 전체적인 모델의 유용성을 크게 개선할 수 있다.

RBDO approach based on a sampling method with the Kriging metamodel and Constraint Boundary Sampling (CBS), which is sequential sampling method to generate metamodels is proposed. The major advantage of the proposed RBDO approach is that it does not require Most Probable failure Point (MPP) which is essential for First-Order Reliability Method (FORM)-based RBDO approach. The Monte Carlo Sampling (MCS), most well-known method of the sampling methods for the reliability analysis is used to assess the reliability of constraints. In addition, a Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF) of the constraints is approximated using Moving Least Square (MLS) method from empirical distribution function. It is possible to acquire a probability of failure and its analytic sensitivities by using an approximate function of the CDF for the constraints. Moreover, a concept of inactive design is adapted to improve a numerical efficiency of the proposed approach. Computational accuracy and efficiency of the proposed RBDO approach are demonstrated by numerical and engineering problems.

Photovoltaic (PV) power generation system has been widely studied as a clean and renewable power source. The purpose of this study is to keep the output power of photovoltaic cells maximum under any weather conditions. There are so many MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) methods. P&O method has been used as a key MPPT method, both voltage and current coming out from PV array have to be feedback in the method. Thus, the system has a complex structure, and may fail to track MPP of PV array when unexpected weather conditions happen. In order to reduce the feedback components, POS MPPT control method was proposed by the authors. In this paper, the authors apply the POS MPPT control method to three phase PCS system. And the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme is demonstrated through PSCAD/EMTDC simulation.

This paper proposes maximum power point tracking(MPPT) control algorithm of PV system using a novel method. The proposed hybrid method is composed perturb and observe (PO) method and constant voltage(CV) method. PO method is simple to realize and CV method is possible to tracking MPP with low insolation. Response characteristics of proposed algorithm is compared to conventional PO method with insolation variation. This paper proves the validity of proposed algorithm through the analysis result.

Photovoltaic (PV) systems are influenced by disproportionate impacts on energy production caused by frequent mismatch cases. The occurrence of multiple maximum power points (MPPs) adds complexity to the tracking process in various PV systems. However, current maximum-power point tracking (MPPT) techniques exhibit limited performance. This paper introduces an enhanced simulated annealing (ESA)-based GMPPT technique against multiple MPP issues in P-V curve with different PV system structures. The proposed technique not only distinguishes global and local MPPs but also performs rapid convergence speed and high tracking accuracy of irradiance changing and restart capability detection. Moreover, the proposed global maximum power tracking algorithm can be applied in the central converter of DMPPT and hybrid PV system to meet various application scenarios. Its effectiveness is verified by simulation and test results.
