본 논문에서는 비 선형 단상부하에 의해 발생하는 전류 고조파를 보상하기 위한 단상능동전력필터의 새로운 제어방법을 제안한다. 부하전류에 시간지연을 주어 임의의 두 번째 상을 생성한 후 단상시스템을 두 상을 갖는 시스템으로 만들어 복소계산을 가능하게 한다. 기존의 방법은 부하전류를 1/4 T(T는 기본파의 주기) 만큼 지연시켜서 가상의 상을 만들었지만, 본 논문에서 제안하는 방법은 저역통과필터가 상 지연의 특성을 가지는 것을 이용하여 필터를 통과한 지연된 위상을 가진 새로운 신호를 두 번째 상으로 이용하였다. 두 개의 위상이 다른 상이 존재하므로 고조파 전류의 순시계산이 가능하게 된다. 기존의 고정좌표계를 이용하여 순시무효전력이론을 적용하지 않고, 본문에서는 전원주파수에 동기하는 회전좌표계를 사용하여 순시계산을 하였고, 보상전류 지령치를 구하였다. 전류원으로 사용되는 RL부하에 대하여 시뮬레이션과 실험을 수행하였고, 제안된 제어법의 유효성을 입증하였다.

철도차량용 구동 시스템의 주 변압기를 지능형 변압기로 대체하는 것은 철도차량의 효율을 높이기 위한 효과적인 방법이다. 지능형 변압기는 고전압 입력단을 저전압 직류단으로 변환하는 정류단 모듈과, 변환된 복수의 저전압 직류단 전압을 직/병렬로 연결하여 저전압 직류 출력 전압을 제어하는 Dual Active Bridge (DAB) 컨버터 모듈로 구성된다. DAB 컨버터는 고주파 변압기를 사이에 두고 양 측 Full-Bridge 컨버터의 전압 합성 방법에 따라 전력이 양방향으로 전달될 수 있다. 이 때, 양 측 Full-Bridge 컨버터의 전압 합성 방법에 따라 고주파 변압기로 흐르는 전류의 형태가 달라지게 되며, 이는 효율에 직접적인 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 논문은 중/저 전력 조건에서 DAB 컨버터의 효율을 개선하기 위한 새로운 modulation 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 modulation 방법은 DAB 컨버터 내에 발생할 수 있는 무효 전력을 0으로 제어하도록 하며, 출력단 컨버터를 다이오드 정류기와 유사한 동작을 하도록 함으로써, 스위칭 손실을 최소화하도록 하였다. 제안된 modulation 방법을 통한 손실 저감은 900Vdc의 직류단 전압을 갖는 DAB 컨버터에 대한 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 검증하였다.

The scott transformer is used to supply single-phase power to the AC railway system. Since the scott transformer is a passive facility, it cannot regulate load-side voltage according to load change. Meanwhile, the Voltage Source Converter (VSC) is able to convert the voltage and control active and reactive power. In this paper, the feasibility of a AC railway system based on Back-to-Back (BTB) VSC which is composed of a rectifier, a DC-DC converter, a inverter, has been proposed. A three-phase to single-phase BTB VSC is modeled. The proposed AC railway system based on BTB VSC is tested on Matlab/Simulink.

This paper proposes a grid-tied power conditioning system for fuel cell, which consists of three-phase current-fed DC-DC converter and three-phase PWM inverter. The three-phase current-fed DC-DC converter boosts fuel cell voltage of 26-48 V up to 400 V with zero-voltage switching (ZVS) scheme, while the three-phase PWM(Pulse Width Modulation) inverter controls the active and reactive power supplied to the grid. The operation of the proposed power conditioning system with fuel cell model is verified through simulations with PSCAD/EMTDC software. The feasibility of hardware implementation is verified through experimental works with a laboratory prototype with 1.2 kW proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell stack. The proposed power conditioning system can be commercialized to interconnect the fuel cell with the power grid.

This paper proposes a 36-pulse back-to-back voltage source converter using four sets of 12-pulse bridges with pulse-Interleaving auxiliary circuit. The proposed back-to-back voltage source converter has an independent control capability of active power and reactive power at the at connection point. The principle of increasing the number of pulses was analyzed using theoretical approach. The operational feasibility of proposed system was verified through computer simulations with PSCAD/EMTDC software. The proposed back-to-back converter can be widely used for the HVDC and FACTS devices.

In this work, control methods and operating modes are proposed to manage standalone microgrid. A standalone microgrid generally consists of two sources, namely, battery energy storage system (BESS) and diesel generator (DG). BESS is the main source that supplies active and reactive power regardless of load conditions, whereas DG functions as an auxiliary power source. BESS operates in a constant voltage constant frequency (CVCF) control, which includes proportional-integral + resonant controller in a parallel structure. In CVCF control, the concept of fundamental positive and negative transformation is utilized to generate a three-phase sinusoidal voltage under imbalanced load condition. Operation modes of a standalone microgrid are divided into three modes, namely, normal, charge, and manual modes. To verify the standalone microgrid along with the proposed control methods, a demonstration site is constructed, which contains 115 kWh lead-acid battery bank, 50 kVA three-phase DC - AC inverter, and 50 kVA DG and controllable loads. In the CVCF control, the total harmonic distortion of output voltage is improved to 1.1% under imbalanced load. This work verifies that the standalone microgrid provides high-quality voltage, and three operation modes are performed from the experimental results.

This paper presents a voltage and frequency controller (VFC) for a 4-wire stand-alone wind energy conversion system (WECS) employing an asynchronous generator. The proposed VF con-troller consists of a three leg IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Junction Transistor) based voltage source converter and a battery at its DC bus. The neutral terminal for the consumer loads is created using a T-connected transformer, which consists of only two single phase transformers. The control algorithm of the VF controller is developed for the bidirectional flow capability of the active power and reactive power control by which it controls the WECS voltage and frequency under different dynamic conditions, such as varying consumer loads and varying wind speeds. The WECS is modeled and simulated in MATLAB using Simulink and PSB toolboxes. Extensive results are presented to demonstrate the capability of the VF controller as a harmonic eliminator, a load balancer, a neutral current compensator as well as a voltage and frequency controller.

This paper which can simulate FRIENDS(Flexible Reliable Intelligent Electrical eNergy Delivery System) model of distribution electrical system presents a new algorithm. In the operation of FRIENDS model, dispersed energy storage(DES) systems have an important role. We can use the active and reactive power of DES to control customer's voltage. In this, the former means load levelling operation and the later means voltage control operation of DES. We focus our research on load levelling operation of DES. We develope an algorithm to get an optimal capacity and operation schedule of DES and then apply it to the FRIENDS model. The results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

계통연계형 태양광발전 시스템(PV PCS : Photovoltaic Power Conditioning Systems)의 단독운전은 다양한 문제들을 야기 할 수 있으며, 따라서 이는 반드시 방지되어야 한다. 실제로는 단독운전이 발생할 확률이 매우 낮지만, PV PCS가 공급하는 유 무효 전력이 부하가 요구하는 유 무효 전력과 거의 일치한다면, 수동적인 방법만으로는 단독운전 검출이 힘들게 된다. AFD(Active Frequency Drift) 기법은 주파수 바이어스 방법이라고 일컬어지는 방법으로, 단독운전 상태에서 계통과 연결된 노드전압의 주파수를 강제로 빠르게 또는 느리게 하여 단독운전을 검출하는 방법이다. 본 논문에서는 최근에 들어서 PV PCS의 능동적 단독운전 검출방법으로 많이 사용되는 AFD 기법의 불검출영역을 널리 사용되는 시뮬레이션 툴(PSIM)을 사용하여 분석하였다.

In this paper, a robust and fast grid synchronization method of a three-phase power converter is proposed. The amplitude and phase information of grid voltages are essential for power converters to be properly connected into the utility. The phase-lock-loop in synchronous reference frame has been widely adopted for the three-phase converter system since it shows a satisfactory performance under balanced grid voltages. However, power converters often operate under abnormal grid conditions, i.e. unbalanced by grid faults and frequency variations, and thus a proper active and reactive power control cannot be guaranteed. The proposed method adopts a second order generalized integrator in synchronous reference frame to detect positive sequence components under unbalanced grid voltages. The proposed method has a fast and robust performance due to its higher gain and frequency adaptive capability. Simulation and experimental results show the verification of the proposed synchronization algorithm and the effectiveness to detect positive sequence voltage.
