본 논문에서는 ESS를 위한 3상 인터리브드 양방향 DC-DC 컨버터의 단일 전류센서 기반 상전류 검출 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 직류 링크 단에 하나의 전류 센서를 이용하여 전류를 측정하고 스위칭 상태에 따라 각 상의 전류를 복원한다. 따라서 기존의 각 상 전류 센서 이용 시 잠재적으로 내포하고 있는 센서 간 출력특성 불균일 문제에서 자유롭고, 보다 경제적인 시스템 구성이 가능하다. 제안한 방법을 3kW ESS용 컨버터에 적용하여 실험적으로 그 유용성을 검증하였다.

본 논문은 FAC (Forward converter Active Clamp) 회로를 통해 변압기 자화인덕턴스에 저장된 에너지를 셀 밸런싱에 재사용하는 Active Clamp Forward converter 기반 셀 밸런싱 회로를 제안한다. 제안 회로는 클램프 커패시터의 충전 균형으로 스위치를 전압 스파이크로부터 보호하고 전력손실을 초래할 수 있는 변압기의 자기포화를 방지할 수 있다. 제안한 셀 밸런싱 회로는 RCD 포워드 셀 밸런싱 컨버터 보다 더 높은 전력 전달 효율과 낮은 전압 스트레스를 갖는다. 제안한 액티브 셀 밸런싱 회로는 동시에 모든 셀이 균등화 되도록 작동하므로, 셀밸런싱 시간이 짧다. 본 논문에서는 제안 회로의 배터리 상태에 따른 제어모드를 설명하고 회로의 타당성 검증을 위해 Powersim 사(社)의 Psim 시뮬레이션 연구를 수행하였다.

본 논문은 디젤발전기, 태양광, 에너지 저장장치로 구성 된 마이크로 그리드 시스템에서의 효율적인 운전 제어 전략을 제안한다. BSFC(Brake Specific Fuel Consumption)맵을 기반으로 디젤발전기의 운전을 최적지점에서 일정하게 운전을 하고 부하의 변화는 에너지 저장장치의 충/방전으로 보상한다. 또한 에너지 저장장치의 안정적인 운전을 위해 에너지 저장장치의 SOC(State Of Charge)를 고려한 제어전략을 사용한다. SOC가 일정 범위를 벗어나게 되면 에너지 저장장치가 부하의 변동에 충분히 보상해주지 못하는 경우가 발생하기 때문에 이를 고려해 운전함으로써 부하에 신뢰성 있는 안정적인 전원을 공급할 수 있게 한다. 제안된 마이크로 그리드 운전 제어 전략은 PSiM 시뮬레이션을 통해 검증되었다.

본 논문은 패시브 셀 밸런싱과 액티브 셀 밸런싱의 에너지 손실 비교에 관한 연구내용이다. 패시브 셀 밸런싱은 저항을 이용하여 과충전된 셀의 에너지를 소모하는 방식이며 액티브 셀 밸런싱은 SSC(Single Switched Capacitor) 구조를 이용하여 높은 에너지 셀의 에너지를 낮은 에너지 상태의 셀로 전달하는 방식이다. 높은 셀과 낮은 셀의 SOC(State Of Charge)의 차이가 5% (0.085 V)일 때 ∆SOC = 3% (∆V = 0.051 V)로 줄이기 위해 패시브 셀 밸런싱과 액티브 셀 밸런싱을 하여 두 셀 밸런싱의 에너지 손실 차이를 시뮬레이션과 실험을 통하여 비교한다.

In this paper, results of produced PCU(Power Control Unit) prototype was showed by suggesting and maintaining optimal operation status which let the three functional modules automatically operate with its necessity by prioritizing operation process. In order to validate effectiveness of the suggested method, we produced a test PCU and examined the results. PCU consists of S3R(Sequential Switching Shunt Regulator), BCR(Battery Charge Regulator), and BDR(Battery Discharge Regulator): converting photovoltaic power into constant voltage at linked bus voltage; storing dump power in the battery which is an auxiliary energy storage device; and supplying power charged in battery to the load. To maintain its high reliability and optimal condition of these three power conversion modules, each module operates in parallel and stable bus voltage is required to be retained at all-time due to the nature of power supply for satellite.

In this paper, we propose a prototype platform combined with the power management system using, as an auxiliary power storage device, a supercapacitor that can be fast charged and discharged with high power efficiency as well as semi-permanent charge and discharge cycle life. For the proposed platform, we designed a technique which is capable of detecting the state of power cutoff or resumption of power supplied from the solar panel in accordance with physical environment changes through an interrupt attached to the micro-controller was developed. To prevent data loss in a computing environment in which continuous power supply is not guaranteed, we implemented a low-level system software in the micro-controller to transfer program context and data in volatile memory to nonvolatile memory when power supply is cut off. Experimental results shows that supercapacitors effectively supply temporary power as auxiliary power storage devices. Various benchmarks also confirm that power state detection and transfer of program context and data from volatile memory to nonvolatile memory have low overhead.

Along with the high interest in electric vehicles and new renewable energy, there is a growing demand to apply lithium-ion batteries in the construction equipment industry. The capacity of heavy construction equipment that performs various tasks at construction sites is rapidly decreasing. Therefore, it is essential to accurately predict the state of batteries such as SOC (State of Charge) and SOH (State of Health). In this paper, the errors between actual electrochemical measurement data and estimated data were compared using the Dual Extended Kalman Filter (DEKF) algorithm that can estimate SOC and SOH at the same time. The prediction of battery charge state was analyzed by measuring OCV at SOC 5% intervals under 0.2C-rate conditions after the battery cell was fully charged, and the degradation state of the battery was predicted after 50 cycles of aging tests under various C-rate (0.2, 0.3, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5C rate) conditions. It was confirmed that the SOC and SOH estimation errors using DEKF tended to increase as the C-rate increased. It was confirmed that the SOC estimation using DEKF showed less than 6% at 0.2, 0.5, and 1C-rate. In addition, it was confirmed that the SOH estimation results showed good performance within the maximum error of 1.0% and 1.3% at 0.2 and 0.3C-rate, respectively. Also, it was confirmed that the estimation error also increased from 1.5% to 2% as the C-rate increased from 0.5 to 1.5C-rate. However, this result shows that all SOH estimation results using DEKF were excellent within about 2%.

This paper presents the estimation of minimum BESS capacity for regulating the output of wind farms considering power grid operating condition in Jeju Island. To analyze the characteristics of wind farm outputs with a BESS, the real data of wind farms, Sung-San, Sam-dal and Hang-Won wind farm, located in the eastern part of Jeju island is considered. The wind farms are connected to Sung-san substation to transfer the electric power to Jeju power grid. Consequently, at PCC (Point of Common Coupling), it can see a huge wind farm connected to the substation and thus it can be expected that the smoothing effect is affected by not only the different wind speeds for each area but also the different mechanical inertia of wind turbines. In this paper, two kinds of simulation have been carried out. One is to analyze the real data of wind farm outputs during a winter season, and the other is to connect a virtual BESS to eliminate the unintended generating power changes by the uncontrolled wind farm outputs as shown in the former data. In the conclusion, two kinds of simulation results show that BESS installed in the substation is more efficient than each wind farms with BESS, respectively.
