By using modeling and simulation. today's design engineers are simultaneously reducing time to market and decreasing the cost of development, while increasing the quality and reliability of their products. A driving simulator is the best example of this method and allows virtual designs of control systems, electronic systems, mechanical systems and hydraulic system of a vehicle to be evaluated before costly prototyping. The objective of this Paper is to develop the virtual Proving: ground using a driving simulator and to show its capabilities of an automotive system development tool. For this purpose, including a real-time vehicle dynamics analysis system, the PC-based driving simulator and the virtual proving ground are developed by using VR(Virtual Reality) techniques. Also ABS HIL(Hardware-In-the-Loop ) simulation is performed successfully.

As the global warming threats to humanity, renewable energy is considered the key solution to overcome the climate change. In this circumstance, distributed PV systems are being expanded significantly its market share in the renewable energy industry. The performance of inverter is the most important component at PV system and numerous researches are focusing on it. In order to improve the inverter, PV simulator is an essential device to experiment under various load and conditions. This paper proposes the PV Power-Hardware-In-Loop simulator (PHILS) with real-time processing converted electrical and mathematical models to improve computation speed. Single-diode PV model is used in MATLAB/SIMULINK for the PV PHILS to boosting computation speed and dynamic model accuracy. In addition, control algorithms for sub-components such as DC amplifier, measurement device and several interface functions are implemented in the model. The proposed PV PHILS is validated by means of experiments with commercial PV module parameters.

본 논문에서는 풍력발전기의 제어시스템에 대한 성능평가를 위한 실시간 처리 기반의 Hardware-In-Loop(HIL) 시뮬레이터와 안정적으로 운용할 수 있는 시스템 제어 알고리즘을 제시한다. 기존의 수행된 연구는 모터와 발전기가 결합되어 동력이 전달되는 구조로서, 소형풍력발전기의 발전기 토크와 전력변환장치의 대한 특성분석으로 그 시험 범위가 제한적이나, 제안하는 실시간 처리 기반의 풍력발전기 시뮬레이터를 통해서 정상운전과 비상운전을 포함하여 제어시스템의 알고리즘과 하드웨어 요소에 대한 시험 성능평가가 가능하다. 한편, 제안하는 시뮬레이터는 세부적으로 하드웨어와 동기화되어 운영 될 수 있도록 MATLAB, CODER 그리고 PLC Library를 활용하여 동적모델과 제어시스템을 포함한 실시간 처리 기반의 풍력발전기 모듈, 바람 데이터를 생성/처리하는 모듈, 전력계통 모듈 그리고 전체 시뮬레이터의 운용을 위한 'Host PC'로 구성된다. 실제 풍력발전기가 설치되는 환경을 기반으로 외부적/내부적인 요소를 변수로 다양한 시나리오에 대한 시험을 수행하여, 풍력발전기 제어시스템의 성능평가를 통하여 본 논문에서 제시한 HIL-시뮬레이터의 우수성과 효용성을 입증한다.

The Deep-sea miner system is composed of body, actuators, sensors, and devices for control and monitoring. At present, we are manufacturing the miner's body included actuators and already consisted with off-the-shelf embedded controller. But sensors and those devices were just determined. To previously test performance of embedded controller which manages control and monitoring of miner system, its simulator must be developed for control and monitoring. Hardware-In-the-Loop(HIL) simulation is being increasingly used in industrial applications. This is an effective tool for the evaluation of electric system and drives. In the HIL simulator, we can test and design the control and monitoring system freely without the risk of hardware ruins and the load of expenses. Also the programming software for miner operating is verified on the HIL simulator. In this paper, we introduce the concept of HIL simulator for control and monitoring of deep-sea miner.

The ground-based spacecraft simulator is a useful tool to realize various space missions and satellite formation flying in the future. Also, the spacecraft simulator can be used to develop and verify new control laws required by modern spacecraft applications. In this research, therefore, Hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulator which can be demonstrated the experimental validation of the theoretical results is designed and developed. The main components of the HIL simulator which we focused on are the thruster system to attitude control and automatic mass-balancing for elimination of gravity torques. To control the attitude of the spacecraft simulator, 8 thrusters which using the cold gas (N2) are aligned with roll, pitch and yaw axis. Also Linear actuators are applied to the HIL simulator for automatic mass balancing system to compensate for the center of mass offset from the center of rotation. Addition to the thruster control system and Linear actuators, the HIL simulator for spacecraft attitude control includes an embedded computer (Onboard PC) for simulator system control, Host PC for simulator health monitoring, command and post analysis, wireless adapter for wireless network, rate gyro sensor to measure 3-axis attitude of the simulator, inclinometer to measure horizontality and battery sets to independently supply power only for the simulator. Finally, we present some experimental results from the application of the controller on the spacecraft simulator.

HILS(Hardware In-the Loop Simulation)은 임베디드(Embedded) 시스템의 개발과 시험에 많이 이용된다. 임베디드(Embedded) 시스템은 시스템의 운전 환경에서 쉽고, 철저하게 그리고 반복해서 시험할 수 없을 때 사용된다. HILS는 빠르고 경제적으로 제품을 개발하는데 유효하다. 또한 생산품이 생산을 시작한 후에 심각한 문제점들이 발견될 가능성을 상당히 줄여주어 생산품 개발 시간동안에 설계 최적화와 하드웨어/소프트웨어 디버깅을 실행하는데 도움을 준다. 본 연구는 Digital Governor의 성능을 확인하기 위해 스팀터빈 플랜트와 동기 발전기를 포함한 시뮬레이터를 HIL(Hardware In-the Loop Simulator)로 구현하였으며, 실시간으로 시스템의 응답을 확인할 수 있도록 소프트웨어로 구성하였다.

기존 RTDS를 이용한 PV PHIL(Power-Hardware-In-Loop) Simulator는 확장성과 유연성의 문제로 인하여 일반 DC Amplifier를 이용한 많은 연구가 진행되었으나, PV Inverter와 연계할 경우에 과도 상태의 출력이 발생하여 안정성과 PV Inverter의 성능 개선이 불가능하였다. 따라서, 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 PV PHILS의 출력 성능 향상과 안정적인 운영이 이루어질 수 있는 제어 알고리즘을 제안한다. 즉, 이 제어 알고리즘은 DC Amplifier의 전기적 출력 특성을 극복하기 위해 정전압(CV), 정전류(CC) 상태에 따라 전압, 전류의 목표 값을 제어하고 각 장치별 특성 고려한 Multi-rate 기반의 특성을 갖는다. 먼저, PV Array의 수학적인 모델링과 DC Amplifier 그리고 DC 전력측정용 Isolated 장치와 통합하여 실시간 처리 기반의 장치로 구성하였고, 제안한 알고리즘이 적용된 PV PHILS와 실제 계통에 연계된 PV Inverter를 이용한 성능시험을 통해서, 그 결과가 기존 방법에 대비해 우수성 및 유용성을 입증하였다.

A ship cruising in the ocean oscillates continuously due to wave action. In order to reduce the ship's roll, we developed a fin stabilizer as an anti-rolling device for a 500-ton-class high-speed marine vessel. During the development phase, it was necessary to set up control gains for the motion and hydraulic systems and assess the effectiveness of the anti-rolling performance on the ground. For this reason, a Target Simulator, which simulated the ship's motion, was given operator inputs such as the engine telegraph and waterjet deflection angle, and generated roll using a one-degree-of-freedom motion base. Hardware-In-the-Loop Simulation (HILS) was performed using the Target Simulator in order to confirm the various logics of the developed fin stabilizer, select initial control gains, and estimate the anti-rolling performance. In conclusion, it was confirmed that HILS was very helpful to develop the fin stabilizer because it could reduce the number of sea trial tests that were needed and could find many malfunctions in the factory a priori.

HILS(Hardware-In-the-Loop Simulation) is a scheme that incorporates hardware components of primary concern in the numerical simulation environment. Due to its advantages over actual vehicle test and pure simulation, HILS is being widely accepted in automotive industries as test benches for vehicle control units. Developed in this study is a HILS system for EHB(Electro-Hydraulic Brake) systems that include a high pressure generator and a valve control system that independently modulates the brake pressures at four wheels. An EHB control logic was tested in the HILS system. Test results under various driving conditions are presented and compared with the VDC logic.

A hardware-in-the-loop simulation (HILS) method for a wind farm controller using a real time digital simulator (RTDS) is presented, and performance of the wind farm controller is analyzed. A 100 MW wind farm which includes 5 MW wind power generation systems (WPGS) is modeled and analyzed in RSCAD/RTDS. The wind farm controller is implemented by using a computer, which is connected to the RTDS through transmission control protocol/internet protocol (TCP/IP). The HILS results show the active power and power factor of the wind farm, which are controlled by the wind farm controller. The proposed HILS method in this paper can be effectively utilized to validate and test a wind farm controller under the environment in practice without a real wind farm.
