Recently, the use of LLCL filters for grid inverters has been suggested to give better harmonic attenuation than the commonly used L and LCL filters, particularly around the switching frequency. Nevertheless, this filter is mainly designed for constant switching frequency pulse width modulation (CSF PWM) methods. In variable switching frequency PWM (VSF PWM), the harmonic components are distributed across a wide frequency band which complicates the use of a high order filter, including LCL and LLCL filters. Recently, a confined band variable switching frequency (CB-VSF) PWM method has been proposed and demonstrated to be superior to the conventional constant switching frequency (CSF) PWM in terms of switching losses. However, the applicability of LLCL filters for this type of CB-VSF PWM has not been discussed. In this paper, the authors study the suitability of an LLCL filter for CB-VSF PWM and propose design guidelines for the filter parameters. Using simulation and experimental results, it is demonstrated that the effectiveness of an LLCL filter with CB-VSF PWM depends on the parameters of the filters as well as the designed variable frequency band of the PWM. Simulation results confirm the performance of the suggested LLCL design, which is further validated using a lab scale prototype.

본 연구에서는 백색 가우시안 잡음이 부가되는 환경 (AWGN)에서 측정 신호로부터 주파수와 진폭의 시간적 변동 특성을 추적하는 문제를 고려한다. 확장 칼만 필터는 여러 가지 응용분야에서 이용되고 있으며, 특히 시간적으로 변동하는 주파수를 추적하는 문제에도 응용되어 왔다. 기존의 확장 칼만 필터 주파수 추적기는 시간에 대한 신호 진폭의 변화폭이 적은 경우에 대해 유도되었거나 진폭의 시간적 변화폭이 큰 경우에는 부가적인 진폭 추적기가 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 시간에 따를 진폭의 변화폭이 상대적으로 큰 경우에 시변 주파수의 추적 성능을 높이기 위해 주파수와 진폭을 동시에 추적하는 확장 칼만 필터 주파수-진폭 추적기를 제안하고 수치모의 실험과 실제 실험을 통하여 그 성능을 확인한다.

Recently, there are a lot of papers in order to replace the electrolytic capacitor into the film capacitor in output of PFC(Power Factor Correction). However, the film capacitor, which has capacitance of low values, causes a large ripple voltage in output of PFC. The LED drivers are connected series in the output of PFC and affected by the magnitude of voltage ripple. In this paper, we have compared the fixed frequency method with the variable frequency for the constant-current control and propose the control method to avoid the sub-harmonic oscillation in the variable input voltage. An 80W PFC, using film capacitors instead of electrolytic capacitors, and LED driver has been built and compared the fixed frequency control method with the variable frequency control method.

A comprehensive analytical study of frequency-modulated supply of the dynamic instability in a variable-reluctance stepping motor, is described. It is shown that stability can be achieved by frequency modulation provided that the phase displacement between the modulating signal and the rotor velocity oscillation lies between certain limits. A simplified expression is derived. based on the assumption of high inertia. This model is used to obtain a qualitative understanding of how frequency modulation influences the dynamic stability of the variable-reluctance motor.

The variable-frequency type water supply equipment, which adopts the variable-voltage and variable-frequency converter(VVVF converter) to govern automatically the rotating speed of a pump, can save 15-20% of power, as compared with a throttle-controlled pump device or an airpressurized water supply equipment, and is finding a wide application. However, it still has some disadvantages : greater pressure fluctuations during switching over the pump and prolonged low-effeciency running of the pump in the case of small consumption of water. Therefore, it is difficult to apply the equipment to the fire water supply system where the water should not be put into use unless a fire takes place, and the water pressure in pipelines should permanently remain constant. This paper introduces the automatic regulation principle of the variable-frequency type air-pressurized water supply equipment (hereafter referred to as simply BFQS equipment) for dual purposes of daily life and fire control, which combined both technologies of speed governing by a converter and air-pressurized water supplying, then discusses some problems related to automatic control, and finally gives the experimental results of an embodiment-BPQS-100-50 water supply equipment.

The frequency analyses for the precipitation data in Korea were performed. We used daily maximum series, monthly maximum series, and annual series. For nonparametric frequency analyses, variable kernel estimators were used. Nonparametric methods do not require assumptions about the underlying populations from which the data are obtained. Therefore, they are better suited for multimodal distributions with the advantage of not requiring a distributional assumption. In order to compare their performance with parametric distributions, we considered several probability density functions. They are Gamma, Gumbel, Log-normal, Log-Pearson type III, Exponential, Generalized logistic, Generalized Pareto, and Wakeby distributions. The variable kernel estimates are comparable and are in the middle of the range of the parametric estimates. The variable kernel estimates show a very small probability in extrapolation beyond the largest observed data in the sample. However, the log-variable kernel estimates remedied these defects with the log-transformed data.

In spite of the increasement of voltage and frequency, the proposed system have a stable operation characteristics. It is verified by the experimental results.

Flywheel energy storage system (FESS) operates motor or generator by utilizing the stored kinetic energy in the rotating mass. Thus, the FESS can support the frequency control of the power system. However, the FESS is disabled when the rotor speed reaches to its minium value. Thus, the second frequency dip occurs in the power system. This paper proposes the frequency control scheme of FESS based on a variable gain depending on the rotor speed and frequency deviation. The proposed scheme prevents the second frequency dip because the variable gain decreases depending on the stored in the FESS. The performance of the proposed scheme is investigated for the IEEE 14-bus system.

In this paper, the comparative steady-state operating performance analysis algorithms of the stand-alone single-phase self-excited induction generator (SEIG) is presented on the basis of the two nodal admittance approaches using the per-unit frequency in addition to a new state variable de-fined by the per-unit slip frequency. The main significant features of the proposed operating circuit analysis with the per-unit slip frequency as a state variable are that the fast effective solution could be achieved with the simple mathematical computation effort. The operating performance results in the simulation of the single-phase SEIG evaluated by using the per-unit slip frequency state variable are compared with those obtained by using the per-unit frequency state variable. The comparative operating performance results provide the close agreements between two steady-state analysis performance algorithms based on the electro-mechanical equivalent circuit of the single-phase SEIG. In addition to these, the single-phase static VAR compensator; SVC composed of the thyristor controlled reactor; TCR in parallel with the fixed excitation capacitor; FC and the thyristor switched capacitor; TSC is ap-plied to regulate the generated terminal voltage of the single-phase SEIG loaded by a variable inductive passive load. The fixed gain PI controller is employed to adjust the equivalent variable excitation capacitor capacitance of the single-phase SVC.
