Electric propulsion aircraft are being actively researched in the aviation field in recent years to solve environmental and noise problems caused by existing gas turbine engine. In particular, research on a thrust motor as a core component of an electric power propulsion system and an inverter for driving it is actively being conducted. In this paper, a motor with high specific power is selected to determine characteristics of aircraft that are sensitive to weight and volume. Power loss of the inverter is then simulated. In the simulation, the selected motor and power device were modeled using PSIM, a power electronics analysis tool. Inverter power loss according to switching frequency was then analyzed.

This paper presents the modeling and analysis of V47-660 kW wind turbine generation system(WTGS) in Jeju wind farm using Psim program. Generally, WTGS is composed of complicated machinery. So it is very difficult to present the mathematic model. This means that WTGS has a nonlinear system. Using the real output data from V47 WTGS for one year, it is simply possible to express the rotor and gear coupling system as a torque generator according to wind speed. Also, the modeling of electrical system can be able to present using the data sheet from the company. To analyze the proposed method, results of computer simulation using Psim program are presented to support the discussion.

This paper presents a Interleaved Buck Converter(IBC) system with Random PWM to reduce electromagnetic noise by harmonics. Swithced mode power supply generally controlled by high switching frequency have a electromagnetic interference(EMI) issue due to the high-voltage/high-current switching to regulate the voltage in buck converter. To solve the problem. we present a novel IBC system with PRBS. IBC system has two active switches with 180 phase difference that controll the cicuit with two PWM signal. IBC system may be disadventageous for the cost due to the addtion of one set of switch, but it has adventages of power distribution, current ripple cancellation, fast transient response, and passive component size reduction. To verify the validity of study, simulation program has been bulit using PSIM and the experimental results of IBC system using RPWM was compared with the conventinal PWM and randomized PWM.

The International Space Station (ISS) is being jointly developed by the following 16 international partners: The United States, Russia, Japan, Canada, Brazil, and the 11 member states of the European Space Agency. Assembly of ISS is a large-scale international program which commenced in November 1998, and is expected to conclude in 2006. Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI) is making effort to take part in the development of Payload Support & Interface Module (PSIM) for ISS. When success is achieved with ISS PSIM development project, Korea will have the rights to utilize external attached payload sites and research activities on ISS. Therefore preparation for the utilization of ISS EXPRESS pallet, JEM-EF, and Columbus-EPF need to be made. This paper shows the investigation results of the external attached payload sites for ISS and the application field of space and Earth science.

This paper presents the simulation modeling and analysis of variable wind speed turbine system(VWTS) using Psim program In the simulation, using the Vestas V47 VWTS located in Hangwon wind farm in Jeju-Do as a model, wind model, blade model, pitch control model and grided connected generator are modeled. The VWTS is controlled by the optimal pitch angle for maximum output power under the rated wind speed and for the rated output power over the rated wind speed. To verify the effectiveness of proposed method, simulation results are compared with the actual data from the model system According to the comparison of these results, this method shows excellent performance. So it is very useful for understanding and applications of wind power control system.

This paper addresses the output control of a utility-connected double-fed induction machine (DFIM) for wind power generation systems (WPGS). DFIM has a back-to-back converter to control outputs of DFIM driven by the wind turbine for WPGS. To supply commercially the power of WPGS to the grid without any problems related to power quality, the real and reactive powers (PQ) at the stator side of DFIM are strictly controlled at the required level, which in this paper is realized with the Fuzzy PI controller based on the field orientation control. For the Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM) converter connected to the rotor side of DFIG to maintain the controllability of PQ at the state side of DFIM, the DC voltage of the DC link capacitor is also controlled at a certain level with the conventional Proportion-Integral (PI) controller of the real power. In addition, the power quality at the grid connected to the rotor side of DFIM through the back-to-back converter is maintained in a certain level with a PI controller of the reactive power. The controllers for the PQ at the stator side of DFIM, the DC link voltage of the back-to-back inverter and the reactive power at the grid connected to the rotor side of DFIM are designed and simulated in the PSIM program, of which the result verifies the performance of the proposed controllers.

In this paper, we proposes a new load-sharing algorithm with a ATmega2560 based digital communication. Proposed algorithm is different from conventional analog method. The high speed communication digital control is performed. To apply the digital communication and real-time control for time-sharing token bus method, we implemented high efficient load-sharing and redundancy. Also this system make down the price by auto ID algorithm and system response is improved by controller's voltage and current integral value sharing. In parallel system prototype, each module have controller and performed load-sharing according to master module integral value. In this paper, we verify the validity of proposed algorithm using PSIM program and prototype.

The dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) is an effective protection device for wind turbine generators based on doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) that is operated under unbalanced voltage dip conditions. The compensating voltages of the DVR depend on the voltage dips and on the influence of the zero sequence component. The zero sequence component results in high insulation costs and asymmetry in terminal voltages. This paper proposes the use of a proportional-resonant controller in stationary reference frames for controlling zero sequence components in the DVR to protect the DFIG during unbalanced voltage dips. To enhance the proposed control method, a comparison is carried out between two cases: with and without using the control of a zero sequence component. Simulation results are presented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control method by using the Psim simulation program.
