This study presents a power distribution control scheme for a three-phase interleaved parallel DC/DC converter in a battery energy storage system. To extend battery life and increase the power equalization rate, a control method based on the nth order of the state of charge (SoC) is proposed for the charging and discharging processes. In the discharging process, the battery sets with high SoC deliver more power, whereas those with low SoC deliver less power. Therefore, the SoC between each battery set gradually decreases. However, in the two-stage charging process, the battery sets with high SoC absorb less power, and thus, a power correction algorithm is proposed to prevent the power of each particular battery set from exceeding its rated power. In the simulation performed with MATLAB/Simulink, results show that the proposed scheme can rapidly and effectively control the power distribution of the battery sets in the charging and discharging processes.

독립전원으로 널리 사용되고 있는 납 축전지는 도서산간 벽지나 태양광을 이용하는 가로등 시스템과 같이 관리자가 없는 곳에서는 과 방전으로 납 축전지의 수명이 급격히 단축되어 고가의 시스템을 효율적으로 용하지 못하는 사례가 많이 발생한다. 이렇게 관리가 잘 되지 않는 곳에 설치된 납 축전지의 문제점인 과 방전을 방지하여 납 축전지의 수명단축을 예방하고자 마이크로프로세서를 사용한 효율적인 관리 시스템을 구축하였다. 제안된 관리시스템은 납 축전지의 충$.$방전 시 전류의 특성을 제어에 이용하였으며, 시스템 작동 중에는 납 축전지의 현재 잔량을 표시하여 관리자가 잔량을 표시할 수 있도록 하였다.

This paper deals with novel soft-switching method for a bidirectional DC-DC converter in battery charging and discharging system. The proposed soft-switching method provides ZVS and ZCS at turn-on, and ZVS at turn-off of the switch in both charging and discharging operation modes. The soft switching condition can be obtained in wide load range, and provide low switching loss as well as low voltage spike at turn-off of the switch. Proposed method is analyzed in charging and discharging mode. Simulation and experimental results validate the usefulness of the proposed soft-switching method.

The moment when Electrical Vehicle (EV) starts charging or discharging is one of the most important parameters in estimating the impact of EV load on the grid. In this paper, a decision-making problem of determining the start time of charging and discharging during allowed period is proposed and studied under the uncertainty of real-time price. Prospect theory is utilized in the decision-making problem of this paper for it describes a kind of decision making behaviors under uncertainty. The case study uses the parameters of Springo SGM7001EV and adopts the historical realtime locational marginal pricing (LMP) data of PJM market for scenario reduction. Prospect values are calculated for every possible start time in the allowed charging or discharging period. By comparing the calculated prospect values, the optimal decisions are obtained accordingly and the results are compared with those based on Expected Utility Theory. Results show that with different initial State-of-Charge ($SoC_0$) and different reference points, the optimal start time of charging can be the one between 12 a.m. to 3 a.m. and optimal discharging starts at 2 p.m. or 3p.m. Moreover, the decision results of Prospect Theory may differ from that of the Expected Utility Theory with the reference points changing.

이 논문은 원자력발전소에서 사용되고 있는 부분적으로 방사선 조사된 EPR 전력 케이블의 방사선 절연열화 진단을 행하기 위해서 전기특성을 조사한 것이다. 본 연구에서는 방사선 조사량을 100Mrad부터 200Mrad까지 증가시킨 케이블 시료를 열화비율에 따른 방사선 조사량에 의한 충전전류 및 방전전류를 측정한 결과 $4.3{\times}10^{-9}$(A)로부터 $1.03{\times}10^{-7}$(A)로 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 100% 일때의 충전전류 및 방전전류를 50%, 16.7% 일때를 비교하면 후자의 케이블은 열화된 부분의 길이가 1/2, 1/6로 되므로 충전전류 및 방전전류로 1/2, 1/6로 흐름을 알 수 있었다. 열화하지 않은 22m와 66m의 케이블을 조사한 결과 66m의 케이블 시료쪽이 충전전류 및 방전전류 값이 22m 케이블보다 3배나 크다는 것을 확인했다. 이들 결과로부터 방사선을 조사한 EPR 케이블의 절연열화 진단법으로 충전전류 및 방전전류를 측정하는 것이 가능하다는 것을 확인했다.

To cope with automobile exhaust gas regulations, ISG and charging control systems are applied to HEV vehicles for the purpose of improving fuel economy. These systems require quick charge-discharge performance of high current. Therefore, a Module of the AGM battery with high energy density and EDLC(Electric Double Layer Capacitor) with high power density are constructed to study the charging and discharging behavior. In CCA, which evaluates the starting performance at -18 ℃ & 30 ℃ with high current, EDLC contributed for about 8 sec at the beginning. At 0 ℃ CA (Charge Acceptance), the initial Charging current of the AGM/EDLC Module, is twice that of the AGM lead acid battery. To play the role of EDLC during high-current rapid charging and discharging, the condition of the AGM lead-acid battery is optimally maintained. As a result of a Standard of Battery Association of Japan (SBA) S0101 test, the service life of the Module of the AGM Lead Acid Battery/EDLC is found to improve by 2 times compared to that of the AGM Lead Acid Battery.

This paper describes high voltage and high energy density capacitor developed for pulsed power applications. The rated voltage of the developed capacitor is DC 22 [kV], the capacitance is 206 [$\mu$F] and the energy density is about 0.7 [kJ/kg]. Polypropylene film and kraft paper were used as the dielectrics. The ratio of the thickness of each dielectric material which consists of the composite dielectric structure, stacking factor and the termination method were determined by the charging and discharging tests on model capacitors. In terms of energy density, the developed capacitor has higher energy density compared with the products of foreign leading companies. In addition, it has been proved that the life expectancy can be more over 2000 shots through the charging and discharging test. The voltage reversal factor was 20%. This capacitor can be used as numerous discharge applications such as military, medical, industrial fields.

An equivalent circuit model of vehicle charging-discharging system for simulation is developed. The vehicle electric power system consists of alternator and battery. The alternator must have adequate capacity for providing electric energy to all loads, and the battery supports the alternator by offering insufficient energy when the alternator output energy is not enough. The alternator model is simplified for the use of characteristic curve, which was provided by its manufacturer, and the battery model is separated in charging mode and discharging mode because of its complex characteristics. Developed circuit model is validated by comparing the simulation data and real experimental data.

To control the lead storage batteries it is necessary to consider the characteristics of each battery connected in series. In this study, the charging and discharging characteristics of sealed lead storage batteries 12V/1.2A was investigated one by one through experiments. The results of the experiment shows that one should consider the state of each battery to prevent overcharge or deep discharge. Also, we designed an equipment to measure battery voltages simultaneously using micro-controller. This equipment will be useful for monitoring batteries at PV generation system.
