The main cause of degradation in an unbalanced stand-alone doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) system is negative sequence components that exist in the generated stator voltages. To eliminate these components, a hybrid current controller composed of a proportional-integral controller and a resonant regulator is developed in this paper. The proposed controller is applied to the rotor-side converter of a DFIG system for the purpose of compensating the negative stator voltage sequences. The proposed current controller is implemented in a single positive rotating reference frame and therefore the controller can directly regulate both the positive and negative sequence components without the need for sequential decomposition of the measured rotor currents. In terms of compensation capability and accuracy, simulations and experimental results demonstrated the excellent performance of the proposed control method when compared to conventional vector control schemes.

Vibration performance of a 6 kW stand-alone wind turbine(W/T) generator is investigated under the wind environment of Daegwanryung mountain area. In the W/T, wind condition, power performance and structural stability are correlated each other An integrated monitoring system which consists of accelerometers, anemometers, power meters and auxiliary sensors for atmospheric data are constructed to measure the required data simultaneously. Based upon the data acquired over a long period of time, vibration performance of the W/T structure is estimated with annual wind data and generating power performance. Within the operating speed range, possibility of severe nitration is diagnosed. Vibration sources are identified and countermeasures are proposed. The goal of the study is to offer the basic information on W/T vibration performance at the design stage of a small stand alone W/T structure.

The brushless doubly-fed induction generator (BDFIG) is a new type of dual stator winding induction generator. In such a generator, both the power winding (PW) and the control winding (CW) are housed in the stator. This paper presents the performance characteristics of a stand-alone BDFIG operation system. A new T-type steady-state model of a BDFIG is proposed. This model is more suitable for the performance analysis of stand-alone BDFIGs than the conventional Π-type steady-state model and the simplified inner core steady-state model. The characteristics of the power flow and CW current are analyzed by detailed mathematical derivations on the basis of the proposed T-type steady-state model. The analysis results are verified by experiments, which are carried out on a prototype BDFIG. The results of the performance analysis contribute to simplifying the control circuit, improving the control performance, and selecting an appropriate BDFIG for actual industrial applications.

In this paper, a stand-alone wound rotor induction generator system is proposed and its steady state characteristics are analyzed. It is shown that the self-excitation of the system can be acheined by exciting the rotor through the PWM inverter. The analysis is based upon the eguivalent circuit and the steady state dq model of the mahine. The results show that the proposed system can be made to generate constant voltage constant frequency power for various speed and load conditions.

This paper proposes a stand alone type single-phase fuel cells micro-source with a voltage sag compensator for compensating the ac output voltage variations (sag or swell) of micro-source. The proposed micro-source is consist of a PEM(polymer electrolyte membrane) fuel cells simulator, a full bridge de converter, a 60Hz PWM(pulse width modulation) VSI(voltage source inverter), and a voltage sag compensator. Voltage sag compensator is similar to the configuration of hybrid series active power filter, and it is directly connected to micro-source through the injection transformer. Compensation algorithm of a voltage sag compensator adopts a single phase p-q theory. Effectiveness of the proposed the system is verified by the PSIM(power electronics simulation tool) simulation in the steady state and transient state which the proposed system is able to simultaneously compensate the harmonic current and source voltage sag or swell.

This paper presents an effective rotor current controller for variable-speed stand-alone doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) systems feeding an unbalanced three-phase load. The proposed current controller is developed based on proportional plus two resonant regulators, which are tuned at the positive and negative slip frequencies and implemented in the rotor reference frame without decomposing the positive and negative sequence components of the measured rotor current. In addition, the behavior of the proposed controller is examined in terms of control performance and stability with respect to rotor speed variations, i.e., slip frequency variations. Simulations and experimental results are shown to validate the robustness and effectiveness of the proposed control method.

The object of this paper is the controller for supplying stably power in a separate house in which a hybrid electrical storage system with a stand-alone photovoltaic/wind power generation system and a small generator is applied. In the photovoltaic/wind hybrid power system used in the separate house, when only the battery is used in sunless days, the capacity of the battery is become larger. In particular, as in recent days, if cloudy days are frequent due to anomaly climate, it is difficult to estimate the number of sunless days. Accordingly, it is preferable to build the electrical storage system that numbers of sunshineless days are to be controlled and a shortage amount of the power generation capacity is to be handled by a small generator system. In order to supply stably power of new renewable energy such as solar to any separate houses, it is preferable to reduce the capacity of battery by decreasing the number of sunless days when estimating the capacity of battery and to drive the small generator for compensation of the power shortage. Such system needs components including inverters for photovoltaic and wind power generation system, batteries and controllers for automatically driving the small generator, based upon the nature of the stand-alone house, and it is preferable to use the controller having a simpler and higher stability by adopting the all-in-one scheme to facilitate its maintenance.

Recently, it has demanded to the wireless monitoring system in stand-alone PV power generation system. We propose the multiplex monitoring method using RF unit of low-price. RF unit consists of RF modem and communication controller. It is also able to use by repeater to communicate long distance.

본 연구는 PV모듈, 밧데리, 충·방전시스템 등으로 구성된 태양광 가로등을 대상으로 소규모 독립형 태양광 발전 시스템(SPVS)을 연구하였다. 태양전지의 발전 효율을 증가시키고 밧데리를 효율적으로 사용할 수 있도록 하기 위해 병렬로 연결된 밧데리를 개별적으로 제어할 수 있는 시스템을 제안하였다. 제안된 시스템은 기존의 방식에 비해 밧데리 충전효율이 증가되고 충방전 횟수를 50%정도 감소시킬 수 있다. 또한 병렬 연결된 전지를 개별적으로 충전 혹은 방전 모드로 제어함으로서 일부 밧데리 고장시에도 일정기간 동안은 정상동작이 가능하고, 밧데리의 고장이 정상적인 밧데리로 전이되는 것을 예방할 수 있어 시스템 유지 보수비용을 줄일 수 있어 태양광 가로등에 적용할 경우 비용절감이 가능할 것으로 예상된다.
