In this paper, the Maximum Power Point Tracking(MPPT) control of the small scale wind power generation system with a three-phase diode rectifier and the grid-connected inverter is studied. Without the need for the converter circuits to control speed of the generator, it is economical and the structure is simple. Compared with existing systems, it can be to reduce the power semiconductor switches and passive elements, and to implement the MPPT control with only DC-Link voltage control of the grid-connected inverter. In order to allow MPPT control without the characteristic information of the wind turbine, the P&O algorithm is applied, and these are verified by the simulation and experiment.

국내 도시철도시스템에서 채용한 직류급전시스템에서 다이오드 정류시스템을 사용하여 역방향 조류가 불가능하다. 이에 따라 전동차의 감속 또는 제동시에 발생하는 회생 전력을 재활용하지 못하고 열에너지로 소비하게 된다. 잉여 회생 전력의 재활용은 에너지 이용의 극대화, 전동차의 제동 성능 향상 및 분진 감소 등의 환경 친화적인 효과를 얻을 수 있으며, 정류기와 역병렬로 인버터를 설치하여 타 계통으로 전달하거나 저장하는 형태로 가능하다. 본 논문에서는 발생한 잉여 회생 전력을 교류 전력으로 변환하여 고압배전계통이나 한전 계통으로 역송전이 기능한 회생용 인버터의 시험 설비 개발 및 성능시험에 대하여 제안하였다. 회생용 인버터 개발 후 개발품의 성능 시험을 위하여 직류급전시스템을 모의할 수 있는 교/직류 전원 설비 및 부하설비를 이용하여 회생용 인버터의 고유 성능을 시험 및 분석하였다.

The inverter resistance welder requires AC/DC converter of high efficiency because the converter changes a commercial ac power source to low voltage dc power source. Harmonic components that occur in the conversion process of converter decrease system power factor and deal great damage in electric power system. To improve such problems, this paper proposes a high efficiency AC/DC converter for inverter resistance welder. The switching devices in the proposed converter are operated by soft switching technique using a new quasi-resonant circuit. As a result, the proposed AC/DC converter obtains low switching power loss and high efficiency.

This paper proposes a soft-switching current -source inverter for photovoltaic power system, which has an H-type switched-capacitor module composed of two semiconductor switches, two diodes, and an L-C resonant circuit. The operation of proposed system was analyzed by a theoretical approach with equivalent circuits and verified by computer simulations with SPICE and experimental works with a hardware prototype. The proposed system could be effectively applied for the power converter of photovoltaic power system interconnected with the power system.

With today's global environmental and energy problems, high expectations exist for solar power generation to reduce carbon dioxide generated by the consumption of fossil fuels. On the other hand, power consumption in residential homes is increasing every year. Among the many household appliances, the power demand for air conditioners increases dramatically during the summer, particularly in the afternoons. As this pattern closely matches the output pattern of solar cells, it should be possible to combine a photovoltaic array with an air conditioner to decrease the energy consumption within the home. We have developed a residential solar-powered air conditioner that operates through a combination of photovoltaic array and commercial power. In this paper, the configuration and specification of the residential solar-powered system are described to a novel high efficiency inverter using a ZVCS boost converter. And the performance evaluations of the solar-powered air conditioner are examined by the analysis of a new tracking controller with a maximum power $P_{max}$ detection of solar cell.

This paper described a dc power system, which can generate the excessive do power form do bus line to ac source in substation for traction system. The proposed regeneration inverter system for dc traction can be used as both an inverter and an active power filter(APF). As a regeneration inverter mode, it can recycle regenerative energy caused by decelerating tractions and as an active power filter mode, it can compensate for harmonic distortion produced by the rectifier substation.

Renewable energy sources such as wind and solar power are free and can be easily harvested everywhere. However, one of the biggest problems when using this kind of energy source is how to increase the efficiency of power conversion system. This paper introduces a modified 3-phase inverter in order to increase the power conversion efficiency. By adding 3 bi-directional switches at output of the inverter, the current flow back DC source during zero state is prevented to minimize leakage current, so that the efficiency of whole system is increased. The proposed topology also improves the power quality to satisfy the total harmonics distortion (THD) requirement. In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed topology, simulation results are carried out using Simulink in MATLAB.

A capacitor-charging power supply using high frequency inverter technology is strongly recommended for the charging section of the pulsed power supplies. A high frequency inverter swiching makes the overall system size small. The command-charging feature can guarantee the higher reliability of switching function. The protection circuit can be easily included in the system and the good regulation of charging voltage can be acieved by the feedback system. Several modules can be stacked to supply required output power and a failed module can be easily replaced. A 50-kV, 35-kW capacitor charging power supply is developed. In this paper the detailed design and test results of a prototype unit are presented.

In this paper, a novel scheme to eliminate common-mode voltage (CMV) is proposed for three-level neutral-point clamped (NPC) inverters. In the proposed scheme, a low-power full-bridge converter is utilized to produce compensatory voltage for CMV, which is injected into an NPC inverter through a single-phase four-winding transformer. With the proposed circuit, the power range for applications is not limited, and the maximum modulation index of the inverter is not reduced. These features are suitable for high-power medium-voltage machine drives. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by simulation and experimental results.
