본 논문은 유도가열 시스템의 자성체 판별 알고리즘을 제안한다. 코일의 형상 및 구성에 따른 임피던스를 수학적으로 분석하여 자성체와 비자성체 동시 가열을 위한 유도 코일을 능동적으로 설계 한다. 또한 인버터 출력전압과 부하 전류를 센싱하여 계산한 임피던스 값과 수식으로 구한 부하 임피던스를 비교해 가열 용기의 재질을 판별한다. 제안된 알고리즘을 통해 자성체 및 비자성체 유도가열을 하나의 공진형 인버터로 구현할 수 있다. 제안된 판별법은 시뮬레이션을 통해 검증한다.

In order to solve the problem of system efficiency reduced on account of two stage power conversion, we propose a series resonant full bridge Inverter circuit for battery-fed microwave oven. This circuit has both a compact size and a light weight comparing with the conventional HVT(High Voltage Transformer) method. Also, it may be adjusted power levels of the microwave oven by a frequency control. In this paper, operational principles are explained in detail in order to understand the circuit operation. Also, a proto-type Inverter circuit with 1[kW] Power consumption is built and tested for verifying the operation.

연료전지와 같은 저전압 대전류의 출력 특성을 가지는 에너지원의 계통연계를 위해서는 이를 승압하는 컨버터와 승압된 전압을 교류로 변환하는 인버터부가 요구된다. 인버터의 동작을 위해서는 높은 승압비를 가지는 컨버터가 필요하며 전체시스템의 고효율화를 위해서는 고효율 DC/DC컨버터가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 공진형으로 동작되는 다수대의 공진형 컨버터를 PISO방식으로 구성하여 고효율화를 꾀했으며, 이를 계통연계형 인버터와 연결한 실제품을 구성하였으며, 기존의 방식인 하드스위칭 타입 컨버터를 이용한 전력변환장치와의 비교를 통하여 본 시스템의 타당성을 입증하고자 한다.

As the Eco-energy is recently required, electrical energy is fast increased. Several induction heating methods are attractive for Eco-energy and energy saving. In this paper, electrical fan heater was designed and developed with new concept for energy saving by electromagnetic induction heating. Proposed system was composed of three module, blast part, induction heating part and power transformation part. Induction heating method was adapted for heating and the resonant inverter was used for increasing of the power transformation efficiency. Full-bridge resonant inverter was adopted to resonant inverter. This system was composed of induction heating part made with metal(SUS 40 series), and power transformation part made with rectifier module, filter module and resonant inverter. From these results, the proposed new electric heater could be saved the energy from faster increasing the temperature compared to commercial gas and other electric heater. This electrical fan heater is possible to be used in field of home, commercial and agricultural area for eco-energy saving heater.

The aim of the paper is to design the PLS(Plasma Lighting System) driving inverter circuit with optimal efficiency. In general, it is known that the PLS driven by a pulse has a higher light-conversion efficiency. There are the Class-E type resonant inverter and the semi-bridge inverter as a circuit which can make a pulse with low duty ratio. In this paper, we analyze the losses of the above two circuits. To verify the loss analysis, the inverter circuit with 220V 380W input consumption is manufactured and tested. Throughout the experimental results, the high efficiency PLS system has confirmed.

최근 분산전원 시스템 개발로 인해 계통연계 인버터의 사용이 증가해 왔다. 계통연계 인버터의 주요한 역할은 계통연계 환경에서의 안정적인 운전과 계통 사고 시 중요 부하에 대한 연속적인 전력을 공급하기 위한 독립운전에 있다. 각 모드 전환시의 출력전압의 변동성과 과도응답 특성을 개선하기 위해 최근 다중 루프 및 간접 전류 제어 방식이 계통연계 인버터에 적용되었다. 하지만 이러한 제어 방식은 캐패시터 전압 및 인버터 전류의 측정이 요구되어 시스템의 비용 및 복잡성을 증가시키게 된다. 본 논문에서는 이산시간 상태공간에서의 전상태 관측기를 설계하여 무순단 절체 동작 시 제어기가 요구하는 변수를 추정하고 이를 궤환신호로 사용하여 시스템의 설계 비용 및 복잡성을 줄인다. 또한 계통연계 시 계통유입 고조파 전류를 억제하기 위해 일반적으로 사용되는 기존 공진형 제어기의 과도 응답을 개선하기 위해 이산시간에서 슬라이딩 모드와 공진제어기가 결합된 새로운 제어기 구조를 제안한다. 제안된 기법의 타당성은 PSIM 시뮬레이션을 통하여 입증된다.
