This paper deals with a single-phase dynamic voltage restorer(DVR) with a quasi Z-source topology. The proposed system based on a single-phase quasi Z-source PWM ac-ac converter which have features such as the input voltage and output voltage are sharing ground, and input current operates in continuous current mode(CCM). For the detection of voltage sag-swell, peak voltage detection method is applied. Also, the circuit principles of the proposed system are described. During the 60% severe voltage sag and 30% voltage swell, the proposed system controls the adding or missing voltage and maintains the rated voltage of sinusoidal waveform at the terminals of the critical loads. Finally, PSIM simulation and experimental results are presented to verify the proposed concept and theoretical analysis.

계통연계형 태양광 시스템을 구성하고 있는 전력변환장치인 PCS(power conditioning system)는 일반적으로 그 내부에 입력전력 평활용 Capacitor, DC-DC Converter, DC link Capacitor, DC-AC Inverter 및 L-C Filter 등으로 구성된다. 이러한 태양광 시스템의 구성은 주로 태양광 어레이와 PCS의 DC-DC Converter 및 DC-AC Inverter의 수와 연결 방법에 따라 여러 가지로 구성할 수가 있다. 본 논문에서 제안할 시스템의 구성은 하나의 태양광 어레이를 다수의 계통 연계형 태양광 PCS가 공유하는 형태인데, 이러한 시스템의 주요 장점은 첫째, 일사량에 따라 각각의 PCS가 모두 정격에서 운전하도록 하여 변환효율을 개선할 수 있다는 점과 둘째, 태양광 어레이의 용량 확장에 따른 PCS 장치의 용이한 확장성 그리고 셋째, 연결되어 있는 다수의 PCS 중 하나의 태양광 PCS가 고장으로 인하여 유지 및 보수가 필요할 때에도 그 외의 다른 정상적인 태양광 PCS는 지속적인 발전이 가능한 장점 등을 갖는다. 본 논문에서는 태양광 어레이의 출력을 공유하는 병렬운전용 태양광 PCS의 구성에 대하여 연구하고, 그 병렬운전기법을 제시하여 이에 대한 타당성을 시뮬레이션으로 검증하고자 한다.

This paper introduces a new current sharing technique to Interleaved Boost Converter (IBC) using carrier slope control. The IBC is able to boost the input voltage and operates at higher current levels and has various advantages over a single power module. However, how to balance the current each module is still important problem. To solve this problem, the proposed technique can distribute the power and load current equally based on master-slave current sharing method. Unlike a conventional approach, this technique can be extended even though the current stress of switching components at slave modules is significantly smaller than that of the master module. The simulation and the experimental results are presented to show the validity.

This paper proposes critical load following back-up system using MCFC stack. This system enables MCFC generation system to supply power to critical load without UPS and to generate rated power under grid fault state. This back-up system includes 'Load Leveler' that is connected with 3-phase inverter and is controlled by additional algorithm that includes critical load following. The proposed system and algorithm are verified by computer simulation based on 5kW system.

Cascaded H-bridge 멀티레벨인버터의 스위칭 패턴을 기본파 생성을 위한 저주파 동작과 파형 개선 목적의 고주파 PWM 스위칭 패턴으로 구분하여 스위칭 손실을 감소시킬 수 있지만 입력단의 DC 독립전압원은 각 H-bridge 모듈이 담당하는 출력전압의 레벨에 따라 용량의 차이가 발생한다. 이는 각 H-Bridge 모듈 스위치의 전류 스트레스 차이를 의미하며, 이로 인해 H-bridge 모듈별 수명 차이를 발생시킨다. 본 논문에서는 용량 창이에 따른 모듈 특성 개선과 인버터 수명 문제를 해결하기 위하여 기존의 다중 반송파 정현 펄스폭 변조방식에 스와핑 스위칭 방법을 적용하여 Cascaded H-bridge 멀티레벨인버터에 적용함으로써 스위칭 손실 개선과 함께 각 H-bridge 별 담당 부하 전력을 동일하게 하여 동일 전류 정격 스위치의 사용을 가능하게 한다. 제안된 스와핑 스위칭 패턴을 PD, POD, APOD방식으로 구현하고 이론적 분석과 시뮬레이션을 통해 타당성을 검증한다.

This paper propose a new form of UPQC (Unified Power Quality Compensator) to compensate the current and voltage quality problems of nonlinear loads. The conventional UPQC system consists of a series inverter, a parallel inverter, and a common DC link. A new type of UPQC proposed is a parallel compensator with SVC (Static Var Compensator) added to compensate for the wide compensation range and low DC link voltage. The parallel inverter compensates the reactive power generated by the nonlinear load, and the series inverter compensates the sag and swell generated at the power supply side.

The power generation method using expensive diesel has operation problems such as high cost diesel generator and a lack of reserved power due to increase of power demand in some islands, requiring expansion of power generation facilities. To solve this problems, it is necessary to improve the efficiency of power generation facilities through an ORC(Organic Rankin Cycle) system application that uses waste heat as a heat source. Therefore, localized application technology of price competitive and highly reliable ORC power generation system is needed, and optimization technology of generators is having great effect, so this study performed two generator designs to get a high-efficiency generator with an optimized 30kW output. The comparison of simulation data for two designed models showed that a generator with SPM factor of 46.2% had an efficiency of 92.1% and a power ouput of about 23.2kW based on 12,000rpm, a generator with SPM factor of 44.46%, had a power output of 27.9kW and efficiency of 93.6% based on above rpm. For the verification of improved design model with SPM factor of 44.46%, the prototype test system with 110kW motor dynamometer was installed and got to the efficiency of 92.08% with conditions of the rated capacity 25kW at 12,000rpm, the test results of prototype generator showed the validity of generator design.
