태양광(PV, Photovoltaic) 시스템의 발전량은 일사량 및 기온 등 날씨 변수에 따라 변동한다. 특히 일사량 변화에 민감하게 반응하는 PV 시스템의 출력 특성은 최대 전력 점 추적(MPPT, Maximum Power Point Tracking) 제어를 통해 변화하는 기상 환경에서도 효율적이며 안정적으로 최대 전력을 생산할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 PV 시스템의 전력생산 효율 개선과 안정성을 높이기 위해 퍼지 로직 기반의 MPPT 제어 방법을 제안한다. 제안한 방법의 성능 검증을 위해, 동일 기상 조건하에서 기존의 대표적인 MPPT 제어방식인 P&O(Perturb and Observe)와 새로 제안한 퍼지 로직의 효율과 안정성을 실증적으로 비교 및 평가한다. 더욱이 하드웨어의 안정도 및 신뢰도 향상을 위해 설계한 회로를 인쇄 회로 기판(PCB, Printed Circuit Board)으로 제작하여 실험을 진행했다. 특정 기간동안 prototype으로 진행한 실험 결과를 통해, 본 논문에서 제안한 퍼지 로직 기반의 MPPT가 기존의 P&O MPPT 대비 4.4% 이상의 효율 개선과, 최대 전력 점에서 변동 폭의 39.7% 이상 감소가 확인된다.

The adsorption of chlorine on a Pt(111) surface at 90 K has been studied using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) in ultra-high vacuum environments. The adsorbed chlorine atoms give rise to two different ordered structures, (3${\times}$3)-Cl and c(4${\times}$2)- Cl, depending on the coverage. It has been determined from the STM image that the absolute coverage of (3${\times}$3)-Cl structure is 0.44, which is not in agreement with coverage calibrated by a low energy electron diffraction technique together with an Auger electron spectrometer and a thermal desorption spectrometer. The Cl atoms bound to on-top sites at the Pt(111)(3${\times}$3)-Cl surface appeared to effectively perturb the density of states of Pt atoms, as compared with that bound to bridging sites. The other ordered structure, c(4${\times}$2)-Cl, with small domain sizes, consists of both on-top and bridge-bonded species with a saturation coverage of 0.5.

Turbulent motions perturb magnetic field lines and produce magnetic fluctuations. The perturbations leave imprints of turbulence statistics on magnetic field. Observation of synchrotron radiation is one of the easiest ways to study turbulent magnetic field. First, we obtained the spatial spectrum of synchrotron polarization so that shows how the spectrum is affected by Faraday rotation and how to recover the statistics of underlying turbulence magnetic field. Since polarized synchrotron intensity arising from magnetized turbulence are anisotropic along the direction of mean magnetic field. Secondly, we studied quadrupole ratio to quantitatively describe the degree of anisotropy introduced by magnetic field at multi-wavelengths. This work demonstrated that the spectrum and quadrupole ratio of synchrotron polarization can be very informative tools to get detailed information about the statistical properties of MHD turbulence from radio observations of diffuse synchrotron polarization.

본 논문에서는 태양광 모듈의 최대 전력점을 추종하기 위한 제어 기법으로 부스트 컨버터(boost converter)의 불연속 전류모드(Discontinuous Current Mode)에서 주파수를 제어하는 기법을 구현 하였다. 태양광 모듈에 연결된 부스트 컨버터는 전압루프를 통하여 Perturb and Observation(P&O)기법을 사용하여 최대 전력점을 추종하였다. 부스트 컨버터의 인덕터에 흐르는 전류는 불연속 전류모드로 제어 된다. 불연속 전류모드에서의 제어기 설계는 MATLAB과 PSIM의 전달함수특성을 수학적 모델링을 통하여 비교 검증 하였으며, 모든제어는 MCU(TEXAS INSTRUMENTS사의 DSPF28335)를 통해 디지털로 제어 하였다. 제안된 기법은 단일 PV모듈이 연결된 불연속전류모드 부스트 컨버터를 통해 동작특성을 분석하였다.

When turbulent motions perturb magnetic field lines and produce magnetic fluctuations, the perturbations leave imprints of turbulence statistics on magnetic field. Observation of synchrotron radiation is one of the easiest ways to study turbulent magnetic field. Therefore, we study statistical properties of synchrotron polarization emitted from media with magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence, using both synthetic and MHD turbulence simulation data. First, we obtain the spatial spectrum and its derivative with respect to wavelength of synchrotron polarization arising from both synchrotron radiation and Faraday rotation. The study of spatial spectrum shows how the spectrum is affected by Faraday rotation and how we can recover the statistics of underlying turbulent magnetic field as well as turbulent density of electrons from interferometric observations that incorporate the effects of noise and finite telescopic beam size. Second, we study quadrupole ratio to quantitatively describe the degree of anisotropy introduced by magnetic field in the presence of MHD turbulence. We consider the case that the synchrotron emission and Faraday rotation are spatially separated, as well as the situation that the sources of the synchrotron radiation and thermal electrons causing Faraday rotation exist in the same region. In this study, we demonstrate that the spectrum and quadrupole ratio of synchrotron polarization can be very informative tools to get detailed information about the statistical properties of MHD turbulence from radio observations of diffuse synchrotron polarization.

This paper proposes a novel hybrid maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm combining a Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) and the conventional Perturb & Observation (P&O) to track/extract the highest amount of power from a solar photovoltaic (SPV) system working under partial shading conditions (PSCs). The proposed hybrid algorithm is based on a WOA which predicts the initial global peak (GP) and is followed by P&O in the final stage to achieve a quicker convergence to a GP. Thus, this hybrid algorithm overcomes the computational burden encountered in a standalone WOA, grey wolf optimization (GWO) and hybrid GWO reported in the literature. The conventional algorithm searches for the maximum power point (MPP) in the predicted region by the WOA. The proposed MPPT technique is modelled and simulated using MATLAB/Simulink for simulating an environment to check its effectiveness in accurately tracking the MPP during the GP region. This hybrid algorithm is compared with a standalone WOA, GWO and hybrid GWO. From the simulating results, it is shown that the proposed algorithm offers high tracking performance and that it increases the output power level of a SPV system under partial shading. The algorithm also verified experimentally on various PSCs.

Solar photovoltaic (PV) system shows a non-linear current (I) -voltage (V) characteristics, which depends on the surrounding environment factors, such as irradiance, temperature, and the wind. Solar PV system, with current (I) - voltage (V) and power (P) - Voltage (V) characteristics, specifies a unique operating point at where the possible maximum power point (MPP) is delivered. At the MPP, the PV array operates at maximum power efficiency. In order to continuously harvest maximum power at any point of time from solar PV modules, a good MPPT algorithms need to be employed. Currently, due to its simplicity and easy implementation, Perturb and Observe (P&O) algorithms are the most commonly used MPPT control method in the PV systems but it has a drawback at suddenly varying environment situations, due to constant step size. In this paper, to overcome the difficulties of the fast changing environment and suddenly changing the power of PV array due to constant step size in the P&O algorithm, least mean Square (LMS) methods is proposed together with P&O MPPT algorithm which is superior to traditional P&O MPPT. PV output power is predicted using LMS method to improve the tracking speed and deduce the possibility of misjudgment of increasing and decreasing the PV output. Simulation results shows that the proposed MPPT technique can track the MPP accurately as well as its dynamic response is very fast in response to the change of environmental parameters in comparison with the conventional P&O MPPT algorithm, and improves system performance.

태양광발전시스템에서 태양전지의 최대전력점 추적(MPPT, Maximum Power Point Tracking)은 중요한 부분이다. MPPT 알고리즘은 태양전지가 주어진 일사량 및 온도에 의해 최대전력점에서 동작할 수 있도록 전압($V_{MPP}$), 전류($I_{MPP}$)를 찾는다. 기존의 P&O, IncCond 알고리즘은 듀티를 증가 혹은 감소시키기 위하여 마이크로 프로세서나 DSP를 필요로 한다. 본 논문에서는 간단하면서 빠른 아날로그 MPPT 알고리즘을 제안한다. 이 방식은 기존 방식과 비교해서 매우 빠르게 MPP를 추적할 수 있으며 구현하기 쉽다. 또한 급격히 변하는 일사량에 기존 방식보다 대처가 빠르며 높은 효율을 보여준다.
