Due to global warming, the need to secure an alternative resource has become more important nationally. Due to the high tidal range of up to 9.7m on the west coast of Korea, numerous tidal current projects are being planned and constructed. The rotor, which initially converts the energy, is a very important component because it affects the efficiency of the entire system, and its performance is determined by various design variables. In this paper, a design guideline of current generating HAT rotor and acceptable field rotor in offshore environment is proposed. To design HAT rotor model, wind mill rotor design principles and turbine theories were applied based on a field HAT rotor experimental data. To verify the compatibility of the rotor design method and to analyze the properties of design factors, 3D CFD model was designed and analysed by ANSYS CFX. The analysis results and findings are summarized in the paper.

Small islands are quite adequate places where microgrid system with renewable sources can replace diesel engines as operation costs of diesel engine in most small islands are very high. To get the large amount of renewable energy, the microgrid system has very large capacity of renewable sources. The system with large capacity of renewable sources can meet the case when supplied energy is greater than the load and the fluctuation of source output is very large. The battery energy storage system can be a solution to stabilize the system with large capacity of renewable sources. In this case, BESS can be utilized as a master source for the synchronous operation of all sources including diesel engine, wind turbine and PV. The diesel generators can be used as a backup in case the BESS SOC goes below a certain level. In this paper, we suggest a novel unit commitment of diesel generators and operation schedule of pump for water supply service with the information of wind forecast, PV forecast, and load forecast. The proposed methods has been implemented and tested at the test bed in Gasa-Island.

모델기반 고장 진단법은 풍력발전기의 상태감지 시스템(Condition monitoring system)에 적용을 목적으로 변동 하중조건하에서 작동하는 기어박스내의 기어의 균열을 진단하기 위해 제시하였다. 두 개의 평기어(Spur gear)로 구성된 간단한 테스트 베드가 위의 접근방법을 검증하기 위해 구축되었고, 기어의 균열은 기어의 뿌리부분에 균열을 인가하여 묘사하였다. 축의 회전속도에 독립적인 타코미터를 기반으로 한 오더분석(Order analysis)을 균열크기 진단에 적용하였고, 테스트 베드의 작동을 시뮬레이션하기 위해 집중변수 모델(Lumped parameter dynamic model)이 사용되었다. 모델에서 균열과 밀접히 관련된 변수는 측정된 신호와 시뮬레이션된 신호 간의 차이를 최소화하는 최적화 기법으로 역추정하였다. 제시한 방법의 유효성을 보이기 위해, 미리 정의된 모델 변수로부터 생성된 시뮬레이션 신호를 테스트-베드로부터 측정된 신호로 가정하고, 제시한 방법을 사용하여 변수를 역추정하였다. 결과는 실제 값과 일치하였고, 이를 통해 알고리즘이 제대로 작동함을 알 수 있었다. 다음 연구에서는 실제 테스트 베드의 실제균열에 적용하고자 한다.

In variable-speed variable-pitch wind turbines, the conventional approach for controlling power-production operation relies on a generator-torque controller and a rotor-collective blade-pitch controller. Both controllers use the generator speed measurement as the sole feedback input. In order to mitigate unwanted excitation of the control system, many filters are adopted. In this study, the characteristics of some filters for signal processing are investigated based on frequency response function. They include low-pass filters, band-pass filters, and notch filters. Especially, this study focuses on design parameters of their filters.

본 논문은 우리나라와 같이 평균풍속이 낮고 바람 방향이 수시로 변하는 지역에 적합한 풍력발전 시스템에 관하여 논한다. 특히, 풍향에 상관없이 효율을 보장하고, 아주 약한 풍속 조건에서도 기동(Cut-in)되며, 낮은 평균풍속 5~6m/s인 지역에서도 경제적으로 풍력발전 단지의 구축이 가능하며, 다양한 지역에 설치가 가능하고, 소음이 적고 친(親) 환경적이며, 양산이 가능해 납기를 예측할 수 있으며 그리고 모든 부품 및 시스템의 국산화가 가능해야 한다는 7가지 조건을 만족하는 풍력발전시스템으로 이를 실현시키기 위하여 현재 풍력발전시스템의 가장 앞선 요소기술(state-of-the-art technology)인 직접구동 방식, 적층식, STR 블레이드, AFPM동기발전기, 자기부상 및 전자브레이크 등 5가지 기술을 복합 융합하여 최고의 효율 및 성능을 보장해 주는 적층 연곡형 시스템이다.

In the paper, the permanent magnet synchronous generator of 1.5[MW] output power which is driven directly without gear system is designed by conventional magnetic equivalent circuit method and analyzed by finite element method. We analyzed the characteristics of generator like no load, rated load, short circuit condition and demagnetization of permanent magnet in order to verify the design results by magnetic circuit method. The last, the analysis results of two kinds of rotor types are compared with each other. Especially the THD(total harmonic distortion) of output voltage is examined for the comparison.

This paper presents a novel nonlinear model of Switched Reluctance Generator (SRG) based on wind Energy Conversion system. Closed loop control with based Proportional Integrator current Chopping Control machine model is used. A Power converter in SRG can be controlled by using PI-CCC proposed model, and can be produced maximum power efficiency and minimize the ripple contents in the output of SRG. A second power converter namely PI based controlled PWM Inverter is used to interface the machine to the Grid. An effective control technique for the inverter, based on the pulse width modulation (PWM) scheme, has been developed to make the line voltage needs less power switching devices and each pair of turbine the generated active power starts increasing smoothly. This proposed control scheme feasibility and validity are simulated on SIMULINK/SIM POWER SYSTEMS only.

The short circuit ratio (SCR) of a given grid is able to show the stability of the system in the case of unwanted elements, such as wind turbulence. This paper presents the simulation of a model of the doubly fed induction generator in the simulation software PSCAD/EMTDC. This model has been used to study flicker during continuous operation and the effect of SCR and grid impedance angle on flicker emission. Simulation results show that compensation of the stator reactive power is an effective method to considerably reduce the flicker levels, irrespective of the grid conditions.

This paper compares two instantaneous reactive power definitions in DFIG wind turbine with a back-to-back three-level neutral-point clamped voltage source converter under unbalanced grid conditions. In general, conventional definition of instantaneous reactive power is obtained by taking an imaginary component of complex power. The other definition of instantaneous reactive power can be developed based on a set of voltages lagging the grid input voltages by 90 degree. A complex quantity referred as a quadrature complex power is defined. Proposed definition of instantaneous reactive power is derived by taking a real component of quadrature complex power. The characteristics of two instantaneous reactive power definitions are compared using the ripple-free stator active power control algorithm in DFIG. Instantaneous reactive power definition based on quadrature complex power has a simpler current reference calculation control block. Ripple of instantaneous active and reactive power has the same magnitude unlike in conventional definition under grid unbalance. Comparison results of two instantaneous reactive power definitions are verified through simulation.
