In this paper an integrated model of PV-AF (Photovoltaic-Active Filter) and PV-SPE (Photovoltaic Solid Polymer Electrolyte) system using PSCAD/EMTDC were explained in detail. The main concept of PV-AF system starts from the "harmonics". In order to deliver power to utility, PV system essentially needs a converter system. Here PV-AF system adds the function of active filter to the converter system installed in PV system, which was introduced already in several papers. PV-SPE system has been studied as a replacement of existing hydrogen production technology that emits large amount of carbon dioxide into atmosphere. Until now, these two systems, PV-AF and PV-SPE, have been considered separately. However, in this paper, characteristics and advantages of combined system are discussed in detail.

There are many researches on Power Quality Device to protect the critical load and power system as the nonlinear load and precision load are adopted into the power system recently. To analyze the voltage compensation of voltage sag and voltage swell by DVR, which is connected to the important load in series, this paper shows PSCAD/EMTDC simulation and its verification by comparing with the actual DVR output of 2MVA. DVR control scheme in this paper is applicable to compensate single-phase, 2-phases or 3-phases voltage sag as well as DVR for distribution system.

This paper deals with HVDC simulation. And the purpose of this paper is to reproduce measurements recorded at HVDC site and to verify the control gains and control actions. In this paper, the target of simulation study is Cheju-Haenam HVDC system. Because Cheju-Haenam HVDC system include analogue controller and digital controller, the detailed digital model considered nonlinear characteristics of analogue controllers is development for high accurate firing and control action. Finally the simulation results which is simulated by PSCAD/EMTDC is compared with measurement signals.

본 논문에서는 PSCAD/EMTDC를 이용하여 MMC(Modular Multi-level Converter)를 기반으로 한 HVDC 시스템 시뮬레이션 모델을 개발하였다. 스위칭 레벨의 동작을 분석하기 위해 각 ARM당 10개의 SM(Sub-Module)과 2개의 RM(Redundancy-Module)을 구성하여 11-level의 MMC 출력 전압을 형성하였다. SM 동작시 발생하는 전압 불균등 문제를 해결하기 위하여 밸런싱 알고리즘을 적용하였으며, SM의 출력 전압에 발생하는 Ripple을 고려하여 Capacitor의 용량을 설계하고 이를 검증하였다. 또한 시뮬레이션을 이용하여 HVDC 성능 분석과 MMC의 성능개선을 위한 순환전류 알고리즘 및 Redundancy 투입 알고리즘을 구현하고 그 결과를 확인하였다.

유도전동기는 기동시 전류가 정격전류의 6배$\sim$8배에 이르기 때문에 경부하로 운전하는 경우에는 역률을 떨어뜨릴뿐만 아니라 과다한 기동전류로 인해 계통전원에 순간전압 강하를 유발시켜 선로의 전력품질(Power Quality) 저하가 심각하게 대두되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 PSCAD/EMTDC 패키지를 이용하여 IEEE에서 제시한 배전 계통 13버스 모형 모델 및 유도기 부하를 모델링하여 사고모의 및 DSTATCOM의 보상 효과를 시뮬레이션을 통하여 보였다.

The paper presents a simulation model and analysis of a grid-connected variable speed wind energy conversion scheme (VSWECS) using the PSCAD/EMTDC software. The modeled system uses a variable speed drive, a fixed pitch angle, a synchronous generator as a wind generator and an AC-DC-AC conversion scheme, which facilitates the wind generation to efficiently operate under varying wind speed while connected to the distribution network. The power output of the WECS is controlled by the AC-DC-AC conversion scheme, the objective of which is to capture the maximum active power under varying wind conditions and to keep the voltage magnitude of the terminal bus at a specific level. Aerodynamic models are applied for a wind turbine model. An simulation analysis of the scheme in terms of its responding to wind variations is also presented.

This paper describes operational characteristics of wind turbine induction generators interconnected with distribution networks using PSCAD/EMTDC. Due to the simple and durable structure, induction generators are the most common type used in wind Power generation. Generally, induction generators are classified into two groups according to the shape of rotor, one is squirrel-cage type and the other is wound-rotor type. In this study, we simulate the start-up and the output variation of generators interconnected with distribution networks and compare the operational characteristics of squirrel -cage type and wound-rotor type induction generators located in the unfaulted distribution lines about the disturbance occurred on the associated distribution feeders emanated from the substation to which wind turbine generator is connected. In order to obtain the realistic results, we use the radial distribution network of IEEE 13-bus model.

When two adjacent AC systems operate at different frequency such as 50Hz and 60Hz, as in the case of ROK and Russia, the only way to practically obtain the advantages of power system interconnection is to use HVDC connection. In this paper, application of the VSC-HVDC transmission for power system interconnection between Russia and ROK is evaluated through the PSCAD/EMTDC modeling and analysis. The simulation results show the feasibility of proposed system for cross border power system interconnection.

Power system restoration following a partial or complete blackout starts with energizing of primary transmission lines. Because system changed rapidly during early restoration process, transformer energization and load pickup is executed to maintain the power system stability. However unexpected problem such as harmonic overvoltage may be arisen during energizing transformer. The reason of harmonic overvoltage is known as transformer saturation and magnetizing in-rush current and so on, but it is difficult to estimate the condition of occurrence. This paper describes the analysis of the harmonic overvoltage while unloaded transformer is energized using PSCAD/EMTDC.

Although the researches and developments are performed for superconducting technologies, many problems such as AC loss and quench phenomenon still remain to design the superconducting transformer. In addition, pre-study on the three phase high temperature superconducting (HTS) transformer is a sort of time and expense consuming work, thus it is very worthy of being analyzing the characteristics of HTS transformer in advance through proper simulation programs and skills. This paper presents an effective simulation method for the three phase HTS transformer using components developed in the PSCAD/EMTDC.
