  • 태양광발전과 같은 분산형전원이 기존의 어떤 보호협조체제하의 배전선로에 도입될 경우는 계통에 대한 역 조류에 의해 사고 시 고장 구간의 분리 및 선로재구성에 따른 차단기 및 개폐기 제어알고리즘, 그리고 순시정전 시 분산형전원의 기동정지, 개폐기의 기능, 차단용량 등에 악영향을 끼칠 우려가 다분히 있다. 또한, 사고 시 일시적으로 분리된 건전구간 내에 분산형전원이 존재하여 그 구간내의 부하와 평형을 이루며 운전되고 있는 경우가 있을 수 있는 데, 이 경우는 인체 및 전기설비에 위험을 초래하게 될 뿐만 아니라 사고의 신속한 복구에도 저해의 요인이 된다. 특히, 태양광발전이 배전선로에 연계되어 운전되는 경우, 동일 뱅크의 타 배전선로에서 사고가 발생하면 태양광발전이 연계된 건전한 배전선로의 보호협조기기(리클로져)가 오동작하는 사고가 발생하는 경우가 실 계통에서 빈번하게 발생하고 있다. 이에 의하여 건전한 선로의 부하가 정전을 경험하는 심각한 문제점이 발생한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이론적인 계산식인 대칭좌표법을 이용하여 모델링과 시뮬레이션을 수행하여, 상기의 보호기기의 오동작 메카니즘과 문제점을 분석하고, 이에 대한 개선 방안을 제시하였다.

  • Ecological architecture enables people to recycle and reuse architectural resources within the category of ecosystem and also to minimize the effect on environment in a whole process, including architectural planning, usage and exhaustion to use sustainable energies. Rammed earth wall construction method utilized in EcoCenter located in Crystalwaters ecological village in Austrailia is a good example, which maximizes its advantages and also covers its limits to use soil and wood as structural resources. In a case of wood, they used non-treated timber to minimize environmental load and utilized used materials in openings. In the roofs, aluminum coated steel which is plated with zinc collects rain effectively even though it is not regenerable. Nontoxic finishes and insulation in floor and ceiling with used papers are able to minimize its environmental load. Solar energy system applied in EcoCenter enables them to market extra energy with electricity companies as well as support needs of its own buildings to utilize photovoltaic panel system with PV panels. Passive solar system is planned effectively in heating and cooling to apply regenerative walls in a use of rammed earth wall construction and natural ventilation systems through openings.

  • The systems associated with the ESS never stop. It runs 24 hours everyday. The system must be managed to run. The ESS system should perform normally even if the power IT equipment fails or communication failure occurs. Therefore, there is a need for a system that actively addresses, manages and controls the high precision power data of the ESS, even if a variety of failures occur. I would like to propose a power management communication unit to cope with the occurrence of communication failure. This paper also includes an integrated management system that can perform micro grid site management, maintenance and monitoring for the ESS system connected with the solar power generation facility.

  • This study is to perform economic analysis of a PVT-GSHP (Photovoltaic Thermal-Ground Source Heat Pump) system compared to the conventional system which consists of a boiler and a chiller. This research has simulated, developed and analyzed four systems for application in a residential and an office building which was based on the hourly EPI (Energy Performance Index, $kWh/m^2yr$). Case 1 includes a boiler and a chiller to meet heating and cooling demands for a house. Case 2 is the same conventional system as Case 1 for a office. Case 3 is simple summation of Case 1 and 2. And Case 4 is utilizing a PVT-GSHP to meet the combined loads of the house and office. The economic evaluation study was based on IEA ECBCS Annex 54 subtasks C economic assessment methods. This study indicated that PVT-GSHP system can save a building's energy up to 53.9%. Also the SPB (Simple Payback) of the PVT-GSHP system with 0%, 50% initial incentive was 14.5, 6.7 year respectively.

  • This paper proposes a new anti-islanding method for single-phase grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) systems using Goertzel algorithm. The proposed scheme is based on inducing increases or decreases of frequencies of load voltage and current that is in the form of existences or periodical variations of the reactive power components. The frequency detection is needed to apply this power variation method to the grid-connected power converter. The proposed method is able to get a fast detection for anti-islanding without the effect of harmonics and noises. The simulation and experiment results validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

  • Grid-connected inverters (GCIs) based on renewable energy sources play an important role in enhancing the sustainability of a society. Harmonic standards, such as IEEE 519 and P1547, which require the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the output current to be less than 5%, should be satisfied when GCIs are connected to a grid. However, achieving a current THD of less than 5% is difficult for GCIs with an output filter under a distorted grid condition. In this study, a novel harmonic compensation method that uses a digital lock-in amplifier (DLA) is proposed to eliminate harmonics effectively at the output of GCIs. Accurate information regarding harmonics can be obtained due to the outstanding performance of DLA, and such information is used to eliminate harmonics with a simple proportional-integral controller in a feedforward manner. The validity of the proposed method is verified through experiments with a 5 kW single-phase GCI connected to a real grid.

  • A cDNA clone for a wound- and pathogen-induced gene in Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa subsp. pekinensis) was isolated and characterized. The cabbage gene, designated BrPR4, encodes a pathogenesis-related protein 4 (PR4) of 140 amino acids. The BrPR4 protein shows high similarity with wound-inducible antifungal proteins of tobacco, potato, barley, and wheat. The BrPR4 gene is locally induced by a nonhost pathogen, Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato, that elicits a hypersensitive response in Chinese cabbage. Treatment of the cabbage leaves with benzothiadiazole (BTH), methyl jasmonate or ethephon showed that the BrPR4 gene expression is strongly induced by ethylene, but not by methyl jasmonate or BTH. The BrPR4 gene is also activated by wounding. Interestingly, however, the wound-inducible BrPR4 gene expression is repressed by salicylic acid or BTH, suggesting that there is cross-talk between salicylate-dependent and -independent signaling pathways.

  • This paper proposes a low power-loss current measurement using a resistor and bypass switch. Conventional current sensing method using a resistor has a disadvantage of power loss which degrades the efficiency of the entire systems. On the other hand, proposed measurement technique operating with bypass-switch connected in parallel with sensing resistor can reduce power loss significantly the current sensor. The propose measurement works for discrete-time sampling of current sensing. Even while the analog-digital conversion does not occur at the controller, the sensing voltage across the sensor still causes ohmic conduction loss without information delivery. Hence, the bypass switch bypasses the sensing current with a small amount of power loss. In this paper, a 90[W] prototype hardware has been implemented for photovoltaic MPPT experimental verification of the proposed low power-loss current measurement technique. From the results, it can be seen that PV power observation is successfully done with the proposed method.
