포항공과대학교 풍력특성화대학원에서는 3MW급 외전형 영구자석 동기발전기 설계를 진행하고 있다. 여기서 외전형이란 RFPM 발전기에서 회전자가 바깥에서 회전하는 형태로 기존의 RFPM 발전기와 비교하여 같은 공극직경에 더 많은 자석을 채택할 수 있고, 회전자와 터빈 블레이드를 직접 연결이 가능하다. 또한, 회전자를 외부에 노출 시킬 수 있으므로 냉각에 유리한 면이 있다. 설계 변수 중 출력과 회전수를 고정시키고 각 극수와 공극 직경, 전압을 변화함에 따른 전기적 특성을 비교하고, 그 중 최적의 모델을 선택한다. 선택된 모델의 전자기장 해석, 손실 계산, 열분석을 수행한다. 본 논문에서는 각 경우에 따른 결과를 비교하고 최적 모델에 대한 해석 결과에 대해 요약한다.

This study proposes a parallel operation strategy for small wind turbine systems. A small wind turbine system consists of blade, permanent magnet synchronous generator, three-phase diode rectifier, DC/DC buck converter, and the battery load. This configuration has reliability, simple control algorithm, high efficiency, and low cost. In spite of these advantages, the system stops when unexpected failures occur. Possible failures can be divided into mechanical and electrical parts. The proposed strategy focuses on the failure of electrical parts, which is verified by numerical analysis through equivalent circuit and acquired general formula of small wind power generation systems. Simulation and experimental results prove its efficiency and usefulness.

최근 환경 파괴와 에너지 고갈에 대한 문제들이 사회의 큰 문제로 대두 되면서 풍력발전의 중요성이 증가하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 LabVIEW를 이용하여 이더넷(Ethernet) 환경에서의 풍력발전 원격감시 제어시스템을 구현하였다. 제안된 원격감시 제어시스템은 풍력발전 시스템의 MCU와 W5100의 SPI(Serial Peripheral Interface)를 통한 이더넷 통신용 하드웨어를 구축하였으며, NI사의 LabVIEW를 이용하여 서버상의 HMI(Human Machine Interface) 소프트웨어를 구현하였다. 본 연구의 실험을 위해 영구자석형 동기 발전기(PMSG:Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator)를 이용하여 풍력발전 시스템 모델을 구현하고 이를 이용하여 원격감시 제어시스템의 성능을 검증하였다.

It is a crucial requirement to utilize an economical battery capacity for the wind energy conversion system. In this paper, the optimal BESS capacity is determined for the wind farm whose dispatched power is assigned by the min-max dispatching method. Based on a lifetime cost function that indicates the BESS cost spent to dispatch 1kWh wind energy into grid, the battery capacity can be optimized so as to obtain the minimum system operation cost. Moreover, the battery state of charge (SOC) is also managed to be in a safe operating range to ensure the system undamaged. In order to clarify the proposed optimizing method, a 3MW permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) wind turbine model and real wind speed data measured each minute are investigated.

In this paper, a fault diagnosis method based on fuzzy logic for the three-parallel power converter in a wind turbine system is presented. The method can not only detect both open and short faults but can also identify faulty switching devices without additional voltage sensors or an analysis modeling of the system. The location of a faulty switch can be indicated by six-patterns of a stator current vector and the fault switching device detection is achieved by analyzing the current vector. A fault tolerant algorithm is also presented to maintain proper performance under faulty conditions. The reliability of the proposed fault detection technique has been proven by simulations and experiments with a 10kW simulator.

This paper proposes a novel scheme for the current controller for the grid-side converter (GSC) of permanent-magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) wind turbines to eliminate the high-order harmonics in the grid currents under grid voltage disturbances. The voltage unbalance and harmonics in three-phase systems cause grid current distortions. In order to mitigate the input current distortions, multi-loop current controllers are applied, where the positive-sequence component is regulated by proportional-integral (PI) controllers, and the negative-sequence and high-order harmonic components are regulated by proportional-resonance (PR) controllers. For extracting the positive/negative-sequence and harmonic components of the grid voltages and currents without a phase delay or magnitude reduction, composite observers are applied, which give faster and more precise estimation results. In addition, an active damping method using PR controllers to damp the grid current component of the resonant frequency is employed to improve the operating stability of VSCs with inductor-capacitor-inductor (LCL) filters. The validity of the proposed method is verified by simulation and experimental results.

This paper proposes a control algorithm for permanent magnet synchronous generator with a back-to-back three-level neutral-point clamped voltage source converter in a medium-voltage offshore wind power system under unbalanced grid conditions. The proposed control algorithm particularly compensates for the unbalanced grid voltage at the point of common coupling in a collector bus of offshore wind power system. This control algorithm has been formulated based on the symmetrical components in positive and negative rotating synchronous reference frames under generalized unbalanced operating conditions. Instantaneous active and reactive power are described in terms of symmetrical components of measured grid input voltages and currents. Negative sequential component of ac input current is injected to the point of common coupling in the proposed control strategy. The amplitude of negative sequential component is calculated to minimize the negative sequential component of grid voltage under the limitation of current capability in a voltage source converter. The proposed control algorithm makes it possible to provide a balanced voltage at the point of common coupling resulting in the generated power of high quality from offshore wind power system under unbalanced network conditions.
