본 연구를 통해 개발된 전기부하시험장치는 상용전원이 필요한 피시험장치(변압기, 정류기, 전압조정기, 인버터 등)와 상용전원이 불필요한 독립형 피시험장치(동력발전기, 풍력발전장치, 태양광발전장치, 하이브리드발전 장치, 배터리 등)에 대하여 정격용량시험이나 가변부하시험을 능동적으로 정밀하게 제어하면서도 시험 중에 사용되는 전기에너지를 소비하지 않고 전원변환장치를 통하여 계통선으로 전달하도록 설계되었다. 동기식 pwm 인버터회로를 상용전원과 연결시켜서 시험에 사용되는 전력을 계통선으로 귀환되도록 설계되었으며, 종전의 수동식 전기저항체를 사용한 전기부하시험장치에 비해 93.4% 정도의 전력을 소모하지 않고도 피시험체에 대한 시험이 가능하도록 하였다.

본 논문에서는 하이브리드 에너지 저장장치의 계통연계 제어에 대하여 기술 하였다. 배터리는 큰 에너지 밀도를 가지지만 순간 전력밀도는 낮아 급격한 전류변동이 일어날 경우 수명이 저하된다. 이러한 단점을 보완하기 위해 수퍼커패시터를 함께 사용하는 하이브리드 에너지 저장장치를 구성하였고 이에 대한 제어방법을 제안하였다. 배터리와 수퍼커패시터의 제어를 위해서는 예측형 전류제어기를 가지는 p-q 제어방법을 적용하였다. 제안된 제어기의 효용성을 검증하기 위해 실제 계통모델에 대한 PSIM과 RTDS를 이용한 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다.

This paper provides a comparison of power converter loss and thermal description for voltage source and current source type 5 MW-class medium-voltage topologies of wind turbines. Neutral-point clamped three-level converter is adopted for a voltage source type topology, whereas a two-level converter is employed for current source type topology, considering the popularity in the industry. To match the required voltage level of 4160 V with the same switching device of IGCT as in the voltage source converter, two active switches are connected in series for the case of current source converter. Transient thermal modeling of a four-layer Foster network for heat transfer is done to better estimate the transient junction and case temperature of power semiconductors during various operating conditions in wind turbines. The loss analysis is confirmed through PLECS simulations. Comparison result shows that the VSC-based wind turbine system has higher efficiency than the CSC under the rated operating conditions.

Back-to Back HVDC 방식을 사용한 비동기 계통연계 기술은 고조파 발생, 높은 비용 및 낮은 확장성의 문제를 가지고 있으며, 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 회전형 변압기를 이용한 비동기 계통 연계 기술에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그러나 회전형 변압기의 인덕턴스 성분으로 인한 무효전력이 발생되고 별도의 무효전력 보상설비의 추가 설치에 대한 문제가 필연적으로 발생된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 회전형 변압기를 사용한 비동기 계통 연계 시스템의 필수요소인 정류용 AC-DC 컨버터를 유효전력 공급뿐만 아니라 무효전력을 보상할 수 있도록 설계함으로서 기존의 회전형 변압기의 무효전력 보상 문제를 해결하고자 하며, 제안된 방식은 시뮬레이션을 통해 성능을 검증하였다.

Under traditional unified power quality conditioner (UPQC) control, a UPQC series converter (SC) is mainly used to handle grid-side power quality problems while its parallel converter (PC) is mainly used to handle load-side power quality problems. The SC and PC are relatively independent. The SC is usually in standby mode and it only runs when the grid voltage abruptly changes. In this paper, novel UPQC coordinated control strategies are proposed which use the SC to share the reactive power compensation function of the PC especially without grid-side power quality problems. However, in some cases, there will be a circulating current between the SC and the PC, which will probably influence the compensation fashion, the compensation capacity, or the normal work of the UPQC. Through an active power circulation analysis, strategies with and without a circulating current are presented which fuses the reactive power allocation strategy of the SC and the PC, the composite control strategy of the SC and the compensation strategy of the DC storage unit. Both of the strategies effectively solve the SC long term idle problem, limit the influence of the circulating current, optimize all of the UPQC units and reduce the production cost. An analysis, along with simulation andexperimental results, is presented to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed control strategies.

An investigation on aerodynamic performance of a highly-loaded axial fan has been conducted to find the effects of tip injection and casing groove on aerodynamic performance in this study. Three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model were used to analyze the fluid flow in the fan with Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) analysis. The hexahedral grid was used to construct computational domain, and the grid dependency test drew the optimal grid system. FSI analysis was also carried out to predict the deformation of rotor and stator blades, and the effect of deformation on the aerodynamic performance of axial fan was analyzed compared to the performance predicted without FSI analysis.

In modern power systems, distributed generators (DGs) result in high stress on system frequency stability. Apart from the intermittent nature of DGs, most DGs do not contribute inertia or damping to systems. As a result, a new control method referred to as a virtual synchronous machine (VSM) has been proposed, which brought new characteristics to inverters such as synchronous machines (SM). DGs employing an energy storage system (ESS) provide inertia and damping through VSM control. Meanwhile, energy storage presents some physical constraints in the VSM implementation level. In this paper, a VSM mathematical model is built and analyzed. The dynamic responses of the output active power are presented when a step change in the frequency occurs. The influences of the inertia constant, damping factor and operating point on the ESS volume margins are investigated. In addition, physical constraints are proposed based on these analyses. The proposed physical constraints are simulated using PSCAD/EMTDC software and tested through RTDS experiment. Both simulation and RTDS test results verify the analysis.

A significant number of renewable energy systems have been connected to the grids as supplement power source. The renewable energy systems require control algorithm to maintain the power-supply reliability and quality. This paper proposes a novel control algorithm for smart Power Conditioning System (PCS) with harmonics and reactive power compensation. The smart PCS is used to feed Photovoltaic (PV) power to utility and compensate harmonics and reactive power at the same time. The experimentation is carried out on the proposed grid-connected PV generation system, and controlled by digital signal processor. The grid-connected PV generation system injects PV energy into the grid and performs as Active Filter (AF) and Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) without additional devices. The experiment results show that the proposed control algorithm is effective for smart PCS with harmonics and reactive power compensation.

This paper presents an active anti-islanding detection method using negative sequence voltage injection to the grid through a three-phase photovoltaic inverters. Because islanding operation mode can cause a variety of problems, the islanding detection of grid-connected photovoltaic inverter is the mandatory feature. The islanding mode is detected by measuring the magnitude of negative sequence impedance calculated by the negative sequence voltage and current at the point of common coupling. Simulation and experimental test are performed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method which can detect the islanding mode in the specified time. The test has been done in accordance with the condition on IEEE Std 929-2000.

This paper discusses the impacts of large scale grid-connected wind farm equipped with permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) on power system small signal stability (SSS) incorporating wind generation uncertainty and volatility. Firstly, a practical simplified PMSG model with rotor-flux-oriented control strategy applied is derived. In modeling PMSG generator side converter, the generator-voltage-oriented control strategy is utilized to implement the decoupled control of active and reactive power output. In modeling PMSG grid side converter, the grid-voltage-oriented control strategy is applied to realize the control of DC link voltage and the reactive power regulation. Based on the Weibull distribution of wind speed, the Monte Carlo simulation technique based is carried out on the IEEE 16-generator-68-bus test system as benchmark to study the impacts of wind generation uncertainty and volatility on small signal stability. Finally, some preliminary conclusions and comments are given.
