Grid-connected bidirectional PCS(Power Conditioning System) technology is a technology for implementing distributed renewable energy smart grid. And it is always charged by using power collected from solar modules and commercial grid power among vast smart grid systems, and stored when needed.It is a hybrid energy storage device that allows power to be released into the low voltage system. To this end, a PV input power converter with MPPT function, a bidirectional power converter for battery charging and discharging, and a DC Link input are output to a 3 phase 380V AC system, and if nessary, the bidirectional DC/DC converter We designed and developed a PCS with three power converter structures composed of inverters that perform battery charging. Currently, this system is applied to the site of Jeju, which is vulnerable to power outages and fire accidents.

Nowadays a Virtual Power Plant (VPP) represents an aggregation of distributed energy resource such as Distributed Generation (DG), Combined Heat and Power generation (CHP), Energy Storage Systems (ESS) and load in order to operate as a single power plant by using Information and Communication Technologies, ICT. The VPP has been developed and verified based on a single virtual plant platform which is connected with a number of various distributed energy resources. As the VPP's distributed energy resources increase, so does the number of data from distributed energy. Moreover, it is obviously inefficient in the aspects of technique and cost that a virtual plant platform operates in a centralized manner over widespread region. In this paper the concept of the large-scale VPP which can reduce a error probability of system's load and increase the robustness of data exchange among distributed energy resources will be proposed. In addition, it can directly control and supervise energy resource by making small size's virtual platform which can make a optimal resource scheduling to consider of variable and sensitive load in the large-scale VPP. It makes certain the result is verified by simulation.

This paper deals with transformer turns ratio design with the consideration of loss minimization in isolated bidirectional DC-DC converter. Generally, the rms value of current, magnitude of current at switching instance, and duty ratio of a converter vary according to the turns ratio of an isolation transformer in the converter under the same voltages and output power level. Therefore, the transformer turns ratio has an effect on the total loss in a converter. The switching and conduction losses of IGBTs and MOSFETs consisting of dual-active bridge converter are analyzed, and iron and copper losses in an isolation transformer and inductor are calculated. Total losses are calculated and measured in cases of four different transformer turns ratios through simulation and experiment with 3-kW converter, and an optimum turns ratio that provides minimum losses is found. The usefulness of the proposed transformer turns ratio design approach is verified through simulation and experimental results.

With the increase of electrical consumption and the unbalance of power demand and supply, power reserve rate is getting smaller and also the reliability of the power supply is getting deteriorated. Under this circumstance, the electrical energy storage (EES) System is considered as one of essential countermeasure for demand side management. This paper proposes efficient evaluation algorithms of multiple functions for EES systems, especially the secondary battery energy storage systems, in the case where they are interconnected with the power distribution systems. It is important to perform the economic evaluation for the new energy storage systems in a quantitative manner, because they are very costly right now. In this paper, the multiple functions of EES systems such as load levelling, effective utilization of power distribution systems and uninterruptible power supply are classified, and then the quantitative evaluation methods for their functions are proposed. From the case studies, it is verified that EES systems installed at distribution systems in a dispersed manner have multiple functions involved with direct and indirect benefits and also they can be expected to introduce to distribution systems with respects to economical point of view.

변전소용 축전지는 변전소 AC 상용전원이 정전되었을 때 직류전원을 중단없이 공급하기 위한 비상용 전원설비로써 대부분의 변전소에서 납축전지를 이용하고 있으나 환경유해 물질 배출, 짧은 수명과 유지보수의 번거로움 등 설비 운영상의 문제점이 있다. 최근 2차전지는 휴대폰, 노트북 등 휴대기기뿐 아니라 전기차, ESS 등 산업분야에 리튬이온축전지의 사용이 확대되며 관심이 높아지고 있는 추세이다. 한전에서는 2008년부터 154kV 용산 등 4개 변전소에 납축전지 대신 리튬이온축전지를 설치하여 시범사용을 지속해 오고 있으며 향후 신설되는 변전소와 축전지 노후교체가 필요한 변전소에는 리튬이온축전지를 적용할 계획이다. 본 논문에서는 기존 변전소용 납축전지의 운영상 문제점 해소와 함께 친환경 고성능, 콤팩트형 2차전지로 각광받고 있는 리튬이온축전지 도입을 통한 변전소 비상전원용 축전지 개발 적용방안에 대해 소개하고자 한다.

DC 마이크로 그리드를 위한 Three-Ports Half Bridge (THB) 제안하고 THB 컨버터의 효과적인 제어를 위한 동작 원리 및 수학적 모델링 그리고 각 포트 간의 전력을 독립적으로 제어하는 디커플링(Decoupling) 방법을 제안하고자 한다. DC 마이크로 그리드에서는 수용자의 부하 상황에 따라 계통뿐만 아니라 분산 전원 및 에너지 저장장치(ESS) 등에서도 전력을 공급받을 수 있다. 이로 인해 기존 전력제어 시스템의 경우 2-포트 컨버터 2개가 필요하고, 이는 부피뿐만 아니라 소자의 개수도 증가시키기 때문에 제작 및 설치 단가가 상승한다는 단점이 있다. 3-포트 컨버터의 경우, 하나의 변압기를 이용하고 전력스위치와 수동소자의 개수를 줄일 수 있으므로 기존의 전력변환장치 대비 전력 밀도를 높일 수 있다. 하지만 하나의 변압기를 이용하여 3개의 포트가 연결되어 있어 서로 간의 전력간섭이 일어나고. 과도기 때 의도 하지 않은 전력의 흐름이 발생할 수 있게 된다. 본 논문에서는 수학적 모델링과 분석을 통해 3-포트 컨버터의 동작원리를 알아보고, 각 포트 간 전력 제어의 상호 간섭을 제거할 수 있는 디커플링 방법을 제안하고자 한다. 또한, 모의시험과 1 kW급 시작품을 이용하여 제안한 디커플링 전력제어 방법의 타당성을 검증하였다.

The multigroup transport theory is the basis for many neutronics modules. A significant point of the cross-section (XS) generation procedure is the choice of the energy groups' boundaries in the XS libraries, which must be carefully selected as an unsuitable energy meshing can easily lead to inaccurate results. This decision can require considerable effort and is particularly difficult for the common user, especially if not well-versed in reactor physics. This work investigates a genetic algorithm-based tool which selects an appropriate XS energy structure (ES) specific for the considered problem, to be used for the condensation of a fine multigroup library. The procedure is accelerated by results storage and fitness calculation speedup and can be easily parallelized. The extension is applied to the coupled code SIMMER and tested on the European Sustainable Nuclear Industrial Initiative (ESNII+) Advanced Sodium Technological Reactor for Industrial Demonstration (ASTRID)-like reactor system with different fitness functions. The results show that, when the libraries are condensed based on the ESs suggested by the algorithm, the code actually returns the correct multiplication factor, in both reference and voided conditions. The computational effort reduction obtained by using the condensed library rather than the fine one is assessed and is much higher than the time required for the ES search.
