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.

Instantaneous Voltage Control of inverter for uninterruptible power supply(UPS) is presented. In order to improve the transient response, the authors propose a control scheme based on a double regulation loop with sinusoidal hysteresis band. And also, using 8097 single chip microprocessor, software synchronization and static switch control scheme is impremented with minimal hard ware structure.

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.

A superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) system has shorter response time and longer life time, and is more economical, and environment-friendly than other uninterruptible power supply (UPS). A conduction cooling system is well answer for the high temperature superconductor (HTS) SMES system. Because the conduction cooling system is simple, light and small structure. The purpose of this paper is to design and verify the effective conduction cooling system for the HTS SMES system. The analysis of heat loads in cryostat is performed. Thermal shield heat loads, temperatures of HTS coil surface and conduction Cu plate are estimated and measured.

This paper deals with a evaluation algorithm of interruption cost in distribution systems in the case where Dispersed Storage and Generation (DSG) systems are interconnected with the distribution systems. If DSG systems are operated as the function of the load levelling in distribution systems at the normal conditions and as the uninterruptible power supply in fault areas at the emergency conditions, the reliability improvement of the distribution systems can be expected. In other words, the benefit can be represented by the cost avoiding interruption according to the operation of DSG systems when a fault is occurred. Therefore, this paper presents the evaluation algorithm for interruption cost in order to evaluate the benefit for the uninterruptible power supply of DSG systems in a quantitative manner.

It has been widely accepted that open phase may separate one of the power lines from power supply which is mainly caused by fuse melting, malfunction for source circuit breaker, contact failure, and disconnection under normal operating conditions, and is considered a kind of failure mode during disconnection of neutral wires as well. When open phase occurs, unequal voltage between phase might happen in the unbalanced load connected each phase, and further, depending on conditions of load, malfunction by providing low voltage. Moreover, load could be burned or overheated with overvoltage, which, in turn, can be a contributor to starting fires. Accordingly, in order to clearly overcome these problems, the current study aims to introduce the theory of uninterruptible power open phase compensation device, meaning that unbalanced power automatically restores balanced power and provides continuously the power supply without blackout, and verify it through simulation and experiments.

In this paper, we propose the bus/bypass synchronization phase lock loop (B-Sync PLL) method using each phase voltage controller of a parallel UPS inverter. The B-Sync PLL included in each phase voltage control system of parallel UPS inverters has the transient response and the phase synchronization error at grid normal or blackout. The validity of this method is verified by simulation and experiment. As a result, the parallel UPS inverters using the proposed method confirmed that the output phase was continuously synchronized when a grid blackout, improving the transient response characteristics for stable load power supply and equal load sharing.

UPS(Uninterruptible Power Supply)는 우리말로는 무정전전원장치(無停電電源裝置)라고 하는데, 정전(停電 : Stoppage of Electric Current)과 같은 전원장애(電源障碍)가 발생한 경우 UPS에 접속되어 잇는 기기에 지속적으로 전원을 공급하는 장치를 말한다. UPS방식에는 상시 인버터방식, 상시 상용방식, 라인 인터랙티브방식의 세가지가 있다.

An efficiency improving method for Uninterruptible Power Supply System(UPS) was developed by using OP-AMP based application circuits such as voltage detection device, current detection device and static switch control device. The efficiency improving algorithm was made by mixing the operating concepts of On-Line type UPS with the operating concepts of Off-Line type UPS. The UPS' inverter does not work if the UPS' output load current is not higher than the low load operating current which is about 0-30(%) of the UPS' output load capacity. The low load operating current is adjustable within the half of the UPS' output load capacity. If the UPS' output load current is rising over than the low load operating current, the UPS' inverter starts working and the inverter output power feeds to the loads of UPS. If UPS' input power breaks out while UPS' inverter does not operate because the load current is low, the inverter starts working within 4(ms) with excessive output voltage which is ${\pm}$8(%) of normal UPS' output voltage. Like these. UPS can continuously feeds power to it's load device and reduce power consumptions.
