This paper analyzes the transient control characteristics of power system by dynamic braking. This method, one type of network switching, employs the injection of controllable shunt resistors at or near the generator bus after the disturbances. First, the power system is simulated mathematically for applying the dynamic braking. And the electrical transient control characteristics are considered by controlling the brake size and insertion time. Second, the mechanical torque of turbine-generator is calculted for the mechanical characteristics. This analysis results show that the electrical characteristics are improved but the turbine-generator shaft is impacted by brake switching. However, these problems can be solved by controlling the brake dynamically.

Optimizing the design of large-scale electric machines based on nonlinear finite element analysis (FEA) requires longer computation time than other applications of FEA, mainly due to the huge size of the machines. This paper addresses a new region decision method (RDM) with mesh adaptive direct search (MADS) for the optimal design of wind generators in order to reduce the computation time. The validity of the proposed algorithm is evaluated using Rastrigin and Goldstein-Price benchmark function. Moreover, the algorithm is employed for the optimal design of a 5.6MW interior permanent magnet synchronous generator to minimize the torque ripple. Additionally, mechanical stress analysis as well as electromagnetic field analysis have been implemented to prevent breakdown caused by large centrifugal forces of the modified design.

In this paper, the steady-state analysis of the three-phase self-excited induction generator (SEIG) driven by a variable-speed prime mover (VSPM) such as a wind turbine is presented. The steady-state torque-speed characteristics of the VSPM are considered with the three-phase SEIG equivalent circuit for evaluating the operating performances due to the inductive load variations. Furthermore, a PI closed-loop feedback voltage regulation scheme based on the static VAR compensator (SVC) for the three-phase SEIG driven by the VSPM is designed and considered for the wind power generation conditioner. The simulation and experimental results prove the practical effectiveness of the additional SVC with the PI controller-based feedback loop in terms of fast response and high performances.

정격풍속 이하에서 풍력발전기의 토크 제어기는 최대 출력 파워를 얻기 위하여 중요하다. 토크 제어의 주된 목적은 바람이 가진 에너지로부터 최대의 출력 파워를 얻도록 하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 최적모드게인을 이용하여 발전기 속도의 제곱에 비례하도록 발전기의 토크 크기를 조절하는 방법이 많이 적용되었다. 그러나 이 제어 방법은 풍력발전기가 수 MW급으로 대형화될수록 응답이 느려진다. 본 논문에서는 토크 제어기의 응답을 빠르게 하기 위하여 공력 토크의 로터 속도 비선형 파라미터를 제어 게인으로 이용하여 추가적인 토크 크기를 조절하는 방법을 고려하였다. 로터 속도 비선형 파라미터의 계산 시에 온라인 경우와 오프라인 경우를 각각 살펴보았다. 2MW 풍력발전기에 대하여 실제 난류 풍속에 대하여 수치실험을 수행하여 오프라인 경우가 출력 파워를 더 향상시키고 실용적임을 보인다.

To insure stable operation and eliminate twice torque ripple, a topology for a six phase permanent magnet synchronous generator (SP-PMSG) with a neutral point connected together was analyzed in this paper. By adopting an extended transformation matrix, the mathematic model of the space vector control was established. The voltage and torque equations were deduced while considering the third harmonic flux and inductance. In addition, the suppression third harmonic method and the closed loop control strategy were proposed. A comparison analysis indicates that the cooper loss minimum method and the current magnitude minimum method can meet different application requirements. The voltage compensation amount for each of the methods was deduced which also takes into account the third harmonic effect. A simulation and experimental result comparison validates the consistency through theoretical derivation. It can be seen that all of the two control strategies can meet the requirements of post-fault.

Fuel oil consumption cost varies depending on every ship operation and this roughly amounts to 70 % of shipping companies' total revenue. As such, efforts towards improved fuel economy are being pursued. An annual 1 % reduction in fuel consumption is perceived to result in saving tens million US dollars on the global fleet operation. One approach is the application of power take-off configurations which are seen to increase fuel oil economy and are suitable for power generation. In this study, the dynamic properties of a shaft generator coupled on a 10S90ME main engine of an 18 600 TEU container vessel is presented. The vibratory torque and angular velocity variation was examined through theoretical analysis and actual vibration measurement. The result of the study suggests a review on existing classification rules for generator design and the lowering of vibratory torque and angular velocity variation guideline.

For reduction of the amount of CO2 emitted from ships, power generation characteristics of two power generation systems consisting of a high-efficiency permanent magnet synchronous generator and diode bridge rictifiers are discussed in this paper. One of the discussed systems has three-phase stator windings, and the other has two sets of three-phase (six-phase) stator windings to reduce pulsation in the electromagnetic torque and DC current. Experimental results reveal that the power generation efficiency of the system having six-phase stator windings is higher than that of the system having three-phase stator windings for a light load. The maximum power generation efficiency of the system having six-phase stator windings is almost the same as that of the system having three-phase stator windings. For the electromagnetic torque of the system having six-phase stator windings, the width of pulsation is about one-fifth compared to the system having three-phase stator windings.

Based on the results in the first-part paper, PSS tuning methods including the determination of PSS gain and compensation of phasor lagging are investigated in this second part. In the phase compensation, PSS should compensate phase lagging, resulted from power system-generator-excitation system loop, to provide damping torque in equal phase with the generator speed. Also, PSS gain should be determined to provide maximum damping torque as much as possible without the other modes unstable. In this paper, gain tuning method using the root-locus and the phase compensation of PSS at the one machine with infinite bus system are presented. The differences between PSS tuning at the tuning condition and at the least-stable condition are also discussed.

이중여자 유도형 풍력발전 시스템은 다른 풍력발전 시스템에 비하여 에너지 변환 효율이 우수하고 전력변환 장치의 용량이 작아도 되는 특성이 있다. 이러한 특징을 살리기 위해서는 풍력발전 시스템에 입력되는 에너지의 변화를 고려하여 발전기의 제어기를 설계해야 한다. 본 논문에서는 상위 제어기와 하위 제어기로 구분하여 이중여자 유도 발전기의 제어기를 설계하였다. 상위 제어가는 풍력발전 시스템에 입력되는 에너지가 변화함에 따라서 발전기의 운전모드를 결정하고 제어 기준값을 계산한다. 발전기의 운전모드는 최저 속도 제어와 가변 토크 제어, 그리고 토크 제한 모드로 구성된다. 하위 제어기는 상위 제어기의 지령에 따라서 발전 시스템의 전류를 제어한다. 또한 본 논문에서는 3kW급 권선형 유도기를 사용한 이중여자 유도형 풍력발전기의 시뮬레이터를 제작하였다. 설계한 제어기는 시뮬레이터에 적용하여 실험적으로 검증하였다.

In this paper, a numerical analysis was conducted on the effect of the flow control valve of a oscillation water column(OWC) type wave power generator turbine. The OWC wave power turbine operates with compressed air in the air chamber according to the change of wave height. When the wave height changes rapidly, a flow control valve is required due to overload of the turbine and reduced efficiency. Therefore, in this paper, a flow control valve with an opening angle of 60 degrees was installed in the front of the turbine, and the pressure drop, torque, and overall performance were calculated according to the change of turbine RPM and flow rate of turbine inlet. In conclusion, the flow control valve with an opening angle of 60 degrees affects when the turbine rotates at low rotation and the inlet flow rate is large. But it does not have a significant effect on overall turbine performance and it is necessary to find the optimal angle in the future works.
