This paper proposes a high-efficiency 3-kW hybrid ESS with emergency power supply. The proposed system enables efficient use of power from photovoltaic (PV) cells and energy storage system (ESS). The proposed system can operate as an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) when grid fault occurs, providing seamless transfer from grid-connected mode to stand-alone mode. The LLC converter for PV achieves ZVS turn-on of switches and ZCS turn-off of diodes, and the isolated bidirectional DC-DC converter for ESS achieves ZCS turn-off regardless of load condition, resulting in high efficiency. The efficiency and performance of the proposed hybrid ESS has been verified by a 3-kW prototype.

In this paper a remote monitoring and control system using Modem for UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) is proposed. The conventional remote monitoring system for UPS is used to local remote monitoring system by RS232 or RS485 communication code. But recently. the system is changed to wide remote monitoring and control system using Modem for quick analysis of errors, correction of errors, report of errors and other user-friendly functions. In this study, we designed and develope system which is able to control UPS an monitor errors, statuses, actual values transmitted from UPSs of each site.

Superconducting magnet energy storage(SMES) offers lower loss and more capacity than other energy storage systems. This paper deals with a configuration and a control method of uninterruptible power supply(UPS) with SMES, Proposed system is constituted of three partsinverter, dc chopper and superconducting coil. The control system is implemented with a general-purpose DSP, TMS320C31. The results of simulation and experiment with a 10kVA prototype show the validity of the system configuration and the control method.

This paper presents the high performance real time control system of PWM inverter for uninterruptible power supply(UPS). This system is based on a digital control scheme which calculates the pulse widths of the inverter switches for the next sampling time in digital signal processor(DSP). A PI compensator is used to eliminate the voltage error caused by the difference between the actual values of LC filter and those designed. Double regulation loops which are the inner current loop and the outer voltage loop are used to make the transient response time reduce in load disturbance and nonlinear load. This method makes it possible to obtain better response in comparison to conventional digital control system. The proposed scheme provides good performance such as stable operation, low THD of the output voltage, and good dynamic response for load variations and nonlinear load.

Non-structural elements are vulnerable to earthquake ground motion. In this study, an experimental study for the electrical non-structural element was performed using tri-axial shaking table tests. A 100kVA UPS(Uninterruptible Power Supply system) was used as the test specimen. The test specimen was anchored to the concrete slab using the conventional installation detail. The input acceleration were generated in accordance with ICC-ES AC156 code. Scale factors of the input acceleration with respect to the required response spectrum defined in ICC-ES AC156 were from 25% to 600%. Based on the test results, damage and dynamic characteristics of UPS were evaluated and analyzed including natural frequency, damping ratio, acceleration time history response, dynamic amplification factor and relative displacement.

There are a lot of troubles during the transfer of the source of electric power in UPS (uninterruptible power supply system) which is indispensable to the industrial equipments. They cause blackout accidents, resulting in a great economic loss. After measuring and analyzing the transient phenomena happening during the transfer, this paper presents the solution of the troubles. The solution can be used as a basic material for maintenance and it can minimize the troubles occurring in UPS and enhance the reliability of it.

Using the ESS(Energy Storage System) as a UPS(Uninterruptible Power Supply) is being studied recently. When the system is operating at UPS mode in integrated ESS and UPS system, the grid supplying power is disconnected and power from PV generation and battery are supplying to load. Operating in UPS mode, when PV generation power is diminished by partial or total clouded situation, DC-link voltage fluctuates. The fluctuation of DC-link voltage influences the load and system as sensitive loads may malfunction. This paper suggests the DC-link ripple voltage compensation algorithm in bi-directional converter. The algorithm stabilize the DC-link and load voltage.
