본 논문에서는 변압비가 다른 2개의 삼상 변압기를 이용한 새로운 방식의 cascade 3상 IHCML(Isolated H-bridge Cascade Multi-Level) 인버터 및 제어 방식을 제안한다. 또한 cascade 3상 IHCML 인버터를 제어하기 위해 최근접 벡터를 이용한 벡터제어 기법을 사용하였다. 이로 인해 많은 전력을 담당하는 대용량 H-bridge의 스위칭 주파수는 출력 기본주파수와 거의 동일하여 제어 스위치 손실이 작으며, 작은 전력을 담당하는 저용량 H-bridge의 스위칭 주파수는 높게 제어 하므로 출력전압의 품질이 향상되었다.

Differential power processing (DPP) systems are among the most effective architectures for photovoltaic (PV) power systems because they are highly efficient as a result of their distributed local maximum power point tracking ability, which allows the fractional processing of the total generated power. However, DPP systems require a high-efficiency, high step-up/down bidirectional converter with broad operating ranges and galvanic isolation. This study proposes a single, magnetic, high-efficiency, high step-up/down bidirectional DC-DC converter. The proposed converter is composed of a bidirectional flyback and a bidirectional isolated switched-capacitor cell, which are competitively cheap. The output terminals of the flyback converter and switched-capacitor cell are connected in series to obtain the voltage step-up. In the reverse power flow, the converter reciprocally operates with high efficiency across a broad operating range because it uses hard switching instead of soft switching. The proposed topology achieves a genuine on-off interleaved energy transfer at the transformer core and windings, thus providing an excellent utilization ratio. The dynamic characteristics of the converter are analyzed for the controller design. Finally, a 240 W hardware prototype is constructed to demonstrate the operation of the bidirectional converter under a current feedback control loop. To improve the efficiency of a PV system, the maximum power point tracking method is applied to the proposed converter.

Recently, a fuel cell with low voltage and high current output characteristics is remarkable for new generation system. It needs both a DC-DC step-up converter and DC-AC inverter to be used in fuel cell generation system. Therefor, this paper, consists of an isolated DC-DC converter to boost the fuel cell voltage 380[VDC] and a PWM inverter with LC filter to convent the DC voltage to single-phase 220[VAC]. Expressly, a tapped inductor filter with freewheeling diode is newly implemented in the output filter of the proposed high frequency isolated ZVZCS PWM DC-DC converter to suppress circulating current under the wide output voltage regulation range, thus to eliminate the switching and transformer turn-on/off over-short voltage or transient phenomena. Besides the efficiency of 93-97[%] is obtained over the wide output voltage regulation ranges and load variations.

The use of a PV grid-connected inverter with non-isolated topology and without a transformer is good for improving conversion efficiency; however, this inverter has become increasingly complicated for eliminating leakage current. To simplify the complicated architecture of traditional three-level dual buck inverters, a new dual Buck three-level PV grid-connected inverter topology is proposed. In the proposed topology, the voltage on the grounding stray capacitor is clamped by large input capacitors and is equal to half of the bus voltage; thus, leakage current can be eliminated. Unlike in the traditional topology, the current in the proposed topology passes through few elements and does not flow through the body diodes of MOSFET switches, resulting in increased efficiency. Additionally, a multi-loop control method that includes voltage-balancing control is proposed and analyzed. Both simulation and experimental results are demonstrated to verify the proposed structure and control method.

이 논문은 새로운 인터리브 방식 삼상 절연형 고효율 부스트 컨버터를 제안한다. 이 컨버터는 삼상 전력변환 방식을 채택하여 보다 큰 전력전송 능력을 갖으며 각 상의 rms 전류값이 작으므로 전도손실도 작다. 이에 더하여, 삼상 부스트 컨버터의 인터리브 동작으로 인하여 입력 전류 리플이 줄어들고, 실효 동작 주파수의 증가로 필터소자의 크기가 작아져서 높은 전력밀도를 갖는다. 부스트 컨버터 출력의 각 상 전류는 제안된 3 상 PWM 구동방식에 따라 전류 연속모드로 동작하여 3 상 변압기로 통합된다. 이 컨버터는 전도손실이 작아 96% 이상의 효율로 동작하며 능동클램프의 작용으로 스위칭 손실도 역시 작다. 제안된 컨버터와 PWM 구동방식을 분석 및 시뮬레이션 하고 하드웨어로 제작하였다. 제작된 시제품을 500 W 급으로 실험하여 모든 설계검증 및 해석을 실시하였다.

발전단지내 발전소와 변전소 접지망이 서로 연결되지 않고 독립적으로 구성된 경우 설비보호를 위한 보호회로가 큰 대지전위 차로 인해 손상되거나 보호설비가 오동작할 우려가 있다. 본 논문에서는 독립된 접지망간 연결된 보호회로에 대지전위 차로 인해 발생할 수 있는 문제를 분석하였으며 고장전류가 유입된 접지망 전위가 상승하면 CT(Current Transformer)회로가 이중접지 된 곳에서는 보호회로가 오동작할 수 있는 조건이 형성되고, 이중접지가 안되었다 할지라도 대지전위 상승이 회로를 통해 전달되어 회로와 외함간 절연파괴가 일어날 수 있으므로 보호회로 케이블이 발전소와 변전소간 연결된 곳에서는 반드시 접지망을 연결하여야 한다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

This paper presents analysis, modeling, and design of a low-harmonic, isolated, active-clamped SEPIC for future avionics applications. Simpler converter dynamics, high switching frequency, zero voltage-Transition-PWM switching, and a single-layer transformer construction result. This paper describes complete design of a digital controller for a high-frequency switching power supply. Guidelines for the minimum required resolution of the analog-to-digital converter, the pulse-width modulator, and the fixed-point computational unit is derived. A design example based on a SEPIC converter operating at the high switching frequency is presented. The controller design is based on direct digital design approach and standard root-locus techniques.

Isolated Current fed full-bridge converter with active clamp is analyzed in this paper. An active clamp branch is used for limiting the voltage overshoot in the bridge switches and rectifier diodes. Zero voltage switching(ZVS) is also realized by using the energy stored in the transformer leakage inductance. To analyze the converter, 6 modes of operation are introduced and investigated. For each of the modes, voltage and current equations are derived together with corresponding equivalent circuits. 200W prototype dc-dc converter is assembled and verifies the effectiveness of the analysis and simulation.

Among the high distribution voltage consumers, high-capacity consumers are often applying the grounding resistance method in order to overcome demerits such as erroneous operation of the ground reply or potential increase in the battery at the accident of the isolated neutral system. In this paper, to prevent damage to CLR and GPT in the delay to block the breakdown in the resistance grounded neutral system, this study aims to provide a proper suggestion for continuous rating capacity of GPT to check the appropriateness of CLR size and reduce GPT burden. Thereupon, this study comparatively analyzes CLR current applied in general GPT and the current gained when CLR demanded in the system is used and analyzes the simulated system through simulation using PSCAD/EMTDC in order to suggest GPT's proper continuous rating capacity.
