High voltage direct current(HVDC) systems has been an alternative method of a power transmission to replace high voltage alternate current(HVAC), which is a traditional AC transmission method. Due to technical limitations, Line commutate converter HVDC(LCC-HVDC) was mainly used. However, result from many structural problems of LCC-HVDC, the voltage source converter HVDC(VSC-HVDC) are studied and applied recently. In this paper, after analyzing the reactive power and output voltage ripple, which are the main problems of LCC-HVDC, the characteristics of each HVDC are summarized. Based on this result, a new LCC-HVDC structure is proposed by combining LCC-HVDC with the MMC structure, which is a representative VSC-HVDC topology. The proposed structure generates lower reactive power than the conventional method, and greatly reduces the 12th harmonic, a major component of output voltage ripple. In addition, it can be easily applied to the already installed LCC-HVDC. When the proposed method is applied, the control of the reactive power compensator becomes unnecessary, and there is an advantage that the cut-off frequency of the output DC filter can be designed smaller. The validity of the proposed LCC-HVDC is verified through simulation and experiments.

This study introduces a model predictive control method for controlling a cascaded flying capacitor multilevel rectifier used as an AC-DC rectifier of a solid-state transformer for DC distribution systems. The proposed method reduces the number of states that need to be considered in model predictive control by separately controlling input current, output DC link voltage, and flying capacitor voltage. Thus, calculation time is shortened to facilitate the level expansion of the cascaded flying capacitor multilevel rectifier. The selection of weighting factors did not present difficulties because the weighting factors in the cost function of the conventional model predictive control are not used. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified through computer simulation using powersim and experiment.

국내 원전 가동중검사 기술은 대부분이 선진국에서 도입한 비파괴검사 장비를 진단현장에 적용하는 운영기술로 지금까지 선진 운영 기술의 습득에 중점을 두어, 검사 시스템 하드웨어 및 소프트웨어의 국내 제작 기술은 매우 미흡하였다. 때문에 국산 고유모델의 원전 가동중검사용 진단장치 개발의 필요성이 끊임없이 제기되었다. 본 연구에서는, 원전 배관 자동 초음파검사 시스템의 핵심 기술인 고성능 다채널 초음파 펄서/리시버와 A/D converter 보드, 디지털 제어보드를 개발하고 그 성능을 검증하였다. 검증 실험 결과는 개발된 시스템이 설계 목적에 부합하는 성능을 보이는 것으로 확인되었다.

본 논문은 다이오드 클램프형 3-레벨 IGBT 인버터에 적용 가능한 새로운 방식의 과전압 방지 스너버에 관한 것이다. 일반적으로 전력변환장치는 스위칭 소자에 발생하는 과전압을 감소시키기 위해 스너버 회로를 포함하고 있다. 하지만 다이오드 클램프형 멀티레벨 인버터는 스위칭 소자가 직렬로 연결되어 있기 때문에 과전압 방지 스너버를 구성하기 힘든 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 스텝-다운 DC-DC 컨버터에 적용 가능한 과전압 방지 스너버의 특성을 이용하여 다이오드 클램프형 3-레벨 인버터에 과전압 방지 스너버를 구성하려 할 때 발생하는 문제점을 분석하고 분석 결과를 토대로 다이오드 클램프형 3-레벨 인버터에 적용할 수 있는 새로운 구조의 스너버를 제안하였다. 제안한 방식에 대한 특성을 해석하였고, 실험을 통하여 효용성을 입증하였다.

This paper presents a study on DSP(TMS320F240) controller design for multi-axes transportation system using BLDC servo motor. This BLDC servo motor controller was realized with DSP(Digital Signal Processor) and IPM (Intelligent Power Module). The multi-axes transportation system needs torque, speed, position control of servo motor for variable action. This paper implements those servo control with vector control and space vector modulation technique. As CPU of controller DSP(TMS320F240) is adopted because, it has PWM(Pulse Width Modulation) waveform generator, A/D(Analog to Digital) converter, SPI(Serial Peripheral Interface) port and input/output port etc. The controller of multi-axes transportation system consists of 3-level hierarchy structure that main host PC manages three sub DSP system which transfer downword command and are monitoring the states of end servo controllers. Each sub DSP system operates eight BLDC servo controllers which control BLDC servo motor using DSP and IPM Between host system and middle digital signal processor communicate with RS-422, between main processor and controller communicate with SPI port.

전기철도차량은 매 순간마다 이동하는 대용량 단상부하로, 전력계통 측면에서 부하의 특성이나, 계통구성의 형태 및 제반현상이 일반 3상 전력계통과 상이한 특성을 지닌다. 이와 같이 3상 전력계통으로 부터 단상 교류로 변환하여 전기차를 운행하는 경우에는 3상 전원측 PCC(Point of Common Coupling)에 불평형을 일으켜, 역상전류를 발생시킨다. 현재는 이를 최소화하기 위해서 종래부터 사용 되어온 스코트 결선 변압기를 사용하고 있다. 하지만 특성상 두 개의 단상 시스템에 걸리는 부하량 및 역율이 동일하지 않을 경우 여전히 3상 전압불평형이 발생된다. 이에 대한 근본적인 대책으로는 급전시스템 재구성 또는 전력 설비 증설 및 보상장치의 적용을 들 수 있으나, 최근에는 전력전자 기술의 발달로 IGBT(Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) 소자를 이용한 BTB(Back To Back) 방식의 컨버터를 활용한 사례가 연구되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 전력계통과 전기철도의 연계 목적으로 3상-단상 BTB 모듈형 멀티레벨 컨버터 (Modular Multi-level Conveter, MMC)를 이용한 전기철도 급전 시스템의 기본구조를 제안하고, Mathworks사의 MATLAB Simulink tool를 이용하여 시뮬레이션을 통해 MMC시스템을 검토하고자 한다.

This study proposes a new test circuit and control method for the submodules of modular multilevel converter (MMC)-based HVDC systems. The test current of conventional submodule test circuits cannot provide the DC offset components or may have some distortion in the linearized current with the DC offset. The proposed scheme can provide not only the DC component but also linearized current without distortion. Therefore, the submodule test current waveform is relatively similar to that of a real submodule consisting of an MMC-based HVDC system. The validity of the proposed circuit and control method is verified through a simulation and experiment.

This paper presents a simple and cost-effective stand-alone rapid battery charging system of 30kW for electric vehicles. The proposed system mainly consists of active front-end rectifier of neutral point clamped 3-level type and non-isolated bi-directional dc-dc converter of multi-phase interleaved half-bridge topology with coupled inductors. The charging system is designed to operate for both lithium-polymer and lithium-ion batteries. The complete charging sequence is made up of three sub-interval operating modes; pre-charging mode, constant-current mode, and constant-voltage mode. The pre-charging mode employs the staircase shaped current profile to accomplish shorter charging time while maintaining the reliable operation of the battery. The proposed system is able to reach the full-charge state within less than 16min for the battery capacity of 8kWh by supplying the charging current of 67A. The optimal discharging algorithm for Vehicle to the Grid (V2G) operation has been adopted to maintain the discharging current of 1C. Owing to the simple and compact power conversion scheme, the proposed solution has superior module-friendly mechanical structure which is absolutely required to realize flexible power expansion capability in a very high-current rapid charging system.

This paper investigates a power supply of medium voltage with enhanced ignition characteristics for plasma torches. A series resonant half-bridge topology is presented as a suitable ignition circuitry. The ignition circuitry is integrated into the main power conversion system of a multi-phase staggered three-level dc-dc converter with a diode front-end rectifier. A plasma torch rated at 3MW, 2kA and having a physical size of 1m is selected to be the high enthalpy source for a waste disposal system. The steady-state and transient operations of a plasma torch are simulated. The parameters of a Cassie-Mary arc model are calculated based on 3D magneto-hydrodynamic simulations. The circuit simulation waveform shows that the ripple of the arc current can be maintained within ${\pm}10%$ of its rated value under the presence of a load disturbance. This power conversion configuration provides a high enough ignition voltage, around 5KA, during the ignition phase and high arc stability under the existence of arc disturbance noise resulting in a high-performance plasma torch system.
