본 논문에서는 인버터 모드 기능을 가지는 Quasi Z-소스 AC-AC 컨버터를 제안하였다. 제안된 시스템은 Quasi Z-소스 AC-AC 컨버터의 암단락 스위치 단에 PI제어가 된 양 방향 벅-부스트 컨버터를 연결하였다. 양방향 벅-부스트 컨버터에서 직류를 입력하는 모드를 인버터 모드라고 하고, 양방향 벅-부스트 컨버터에서 직류를 출력하는 모드는 컨버터 모드라고 한다. PSIM시뮬레이션에 의하여 인버터 모드 동작 시에는 직류 12V를 암단락 스위치단에 입력하여 AC_Load에 교류 전압를 출력하고, 컨버터 모드 동작 시에는 AC_Load에 교류 전압를 출력함과 동시에 암단락 스위치단에 연결된 DC_Load에 직류 전압을 일정하게 출력할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

This paper deals with a $3{\phi}$ rectifier unit for telecommunication system. The rectifier unit is developed to Cope with the step-up of the AC input voltatage from 220V to 380V. By using a buck-type converter in the front-end, it keeps the input power factor high and reduces the voltage ripple in the dc output. It also has a very wide voltage regulation range, which lets the unit be applied for both the 220V and 380V input system. The study includes the power conversion scheme, control strategy, snubber circuit and finally, experimental results.

Recent environmental pollutions have intensified the need to develop zero emission vehicles. The most effect method of such solutions is EV. EV is high energy efficiency, easy to maintain, repair and is possible to make high performance control. However, because energy density of batteries is constrained and the distance covered one charge is short range. Also because EV has disadvantage of poor accelation ability, development of high performance battery is required for large scale use of EV. EV charger analogous to gas apparatus must also be developed immediately. Charger is discriminate between on-vehicle type and off-vehicle type. As off-vehicle type is able to charge fast and safe, inductive charging is considered. This paper aims to develope off-vehicle inductive charging system. Therefore, it achieved power factor correction converter, high frequency DC/AC inverter control algorithm development which gives proof validity through simulation and formulated the basic concept of high frequency transformer design for inductive charging.

도시철도에서 사용하는 전력공급 장치는 대부분 다이오드를 이용하여 전차선(DC)에 공급하고 있으며, 다이오드 특성상 단방향 전력공급이 가능하기 때문에 전동차의 회생제동으로 발생하는 회생 전력을 재사용 할 수 없는 단점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 전동차에서 발생하는 회생전력을 교류 모선으로 환원시켜주기 위하여 사이리스터를 이용한 양방향 더블컨버터를 제안한다. 더블컨버터의 제어 목적은 전차선의 부하에 따라 전압을 일정하게 유지시키면서 부하 조건에 따라 안정적인 모드 전환을 하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 더블컨버터의 병렬로 운전을 통하여 순차적인 모드 전환을 위한 알고리즘을 더블컨버터 시뮬레이션을 적용하여 검증하였다.

This paper presents a neutral point deviation and ripple compensation control method for application to 3-level NPC converters. The neutral point deviation and its harmonic components are analyzed with a focus on the average current flowing through the neutral point of the dc-link. This paper also proposes a control scheme to compensate for the neutral point deviation and dominant harmonic components under generalized unbalanced grid operating conditions. The positive and negative sequence components of the pole voltages and ac input currents are employed to accurately explain the behavior of 3-level NPC converters. Simulation and experimental results are presented to verify the validity of the proposed method.

Momentum flywheels are widely applied for the generation of small and precise torque for the attitude control and inertial stabilization of satellites and space stations. Due to its inherited system nonlinearity, the tracking performance of the flywheel torque/speed in dynamic/plug braking operations is limited when a conventional controller is employed. To take advantage of the well-separated two-time-scale quantities of a flywheel driving system, the singular perturbation technique is adopted to improve the torque tracking performance. In addition, the composite control law, which combines slow- and fast- dynamic portions, is derived for flywheel driving systems. Furthermore, a novel control strategy for plug braking dynamics, which considers couplings between the Buck converter and the three-phase inverter load, is designed with easy implementation. Finally, experimental results are presented to demonstrate the correctness of the analysis and the superiority of the proposed methods.

A newly-built inverter has to undergo a series of stress tests in the final stage of production line. This can be achieved by connecting it to a dynamometer consisting of a three-phase machine joined by a rigid shaft to a DC load machine. The latter is controlled to create some specific load characteristic needed for the test. In this paper a test method is proposed, in which no mechanical equipment is needed. The suggested test stand consists only of a inverter to be tested and a simulator converter. Both devices are connected back-to-back on the AC-side via smoothing reactors. The simulator operates in real-time as an equivalent load circuit, so that the device under test will only notice the behaviour of a three-phase machine under consideration of the load. In oder to prove rightness of the suggested test method, the simulation and actural experiment carried out emulation for a 2.2kW induction motor.

In order to improve the conversion efficiency and mitigate the EMI problem of conventional hard-switching inverters, a new soft-switching DC-AC inverter with a compact structure and a low modulation complexity is proposed in this paper. In the proposed structure, resonant inductors are connected in series for the arm branches, and resonant capacitors are connected in parallel for the neutral point branches. With the help of resonant components, the proposed structure achieves zero-current switching on the arm branches and zero-voltage switching on the neutral point branches. When compared with state-of-art soft-switching topologies, the proposed topology does not need auxiliary switches. Moreover, the commutation algorithm to realize soft-switching can be easily implemented. In this paper, the principle of the resonant operation of the proposed soft-switching converter is presented and its performance is verified through simulation studies. The feasibility of the proposed inverter is evaluated experimentally with a 2.4-kW prototype.

본 논문에서는 전기자동차(EV) 충전기용 위상천이 풀브리지(PSFB) 컨버터의 정류기 다이오드 전압 스트레스를 저감하기 위한 새로운 형태의 클램핑 회로를 제안한다. 제안하는 회로는 하나의 커패시터로 구성된 매우 단순한 구조임에도 불구하고, 정류기 다이오드의 전압 스트레스를 큰 폭으로 감소시킨다. 뿐만 아니라, 해당 회로는 프리휠링 구간의 전류를 감소시키며, 출력 인덕터의 사이즈 또한 줄일 수 있다는 장점을 지닌다. 따라서 제안된 컨버터는 정류기 다이오드의 도통손실을 큰 폭으로 저감하여 고효율을 달성할 수 있으며, 간단한 구조의 클램핑 회로와 줄어든 출력 필터 사이즈에 의해서 고밀도화를 달성할 수 있다. 제안된 컨버터의 타당성은 3.3kW, $270-420V_{DC}$의 CC-CV 모드 충전 조건하에서 실험하여 검증되었다.
