This paper describes the control of a utility-connected doublefed induction machine (DFIM) for wind power generation systems (WPGS). Real and reactive powers (PQ) at the stator side of DFIM are strictly controlled to supply the power to the grid without any problems. In this paper the control is realized using Fuzzy PI controller based on the stator-flux orientation control.

본 논문에서는 PWM 승압형 컨버터/인버터를 사용한 교류전동기 구동시스템에서 커먼 모드 전압의 크기를 dc 버스 전압 1/3이하로 제한시키는 새로운 공간전압벡터 PWM 기법을 제안한다. Dc 버스 전압의 2/3에 해당하는 커먼 모드 전압 펄스가 발생하는 경우에 대하여 고찰하고 각각의 경우에 대한 인버터 스위칭 시점의 이동을 통한 제거 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 부가의 하드웨어를 요구하지 않고 소프트웨어적으로 손쉽게 구현될 수 있으며, 전력변환기의 제어성능에 영향을 미치지 않는다는 장점을 가진다.

This paper describes a current fed high frequency resonant inverter used as the power supply for sealing-wax. The proposed inverter can reduce switching losses, noise and voltage stress at turn-on and turn-off. The analysis of proposed circuit uses normalized parameter and characteristic estimation which is needed in each step before design is generally described according to normalized frequency ($\mu$), coefficient of coupling($\kappa$) and all parameters. The theoretical analysis is proved through experiment and this circuit shows that it can be used practically as the power supply system for sealing wax and DC-DC converter.

This paper proposes an application of energy storage devices (ESD) for low-voltage ride-through (LVRT) capability enhancement and power smoothening of doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) wind turbine systems. A grid-side converter (GSC) is used to maintain the DC-link voltage. Meanwhile, a machine-side converter (MSC) is used to control the active and reactive powers independently. For grid disturbances, the generator output power can be reduced by increasing the generator speed, resulting in an increased inertial energy of the rotational body. Design and control techniques for the energy storage devices are introduced, which consist of current and power control loops. Also, the output power fluctuation of the generator due to wind speed variations can be smoothened by controlling the ESD. The validity of the proposed method has been verified by PSCAD/EMTDC simulation results for a 2 MW DFIG wind turbine system and by experimental results for a small-scale wind turbine simulator.

This research paper describes the development of battery charger with a variable output voltage capacity for charging the batteries used in electrical vehicles. The voltage and current accordingly is control via the buck converter that receives three phase current at primary side and fed to bridge rectifier which is comprised of full bridge converter and HFTR(High Frequency Transformer) for isolation and a square wave AC output. The transformer primary side is in series to divide certain charging current and the secondary side is comprised of six fix transformers so that they can generate certain amount of power and various output voltage through relay connection using 6 DC outputs. Moreover, all parallel connected full bridge serial resonant converter communicate together with upper(main) controller. The constructed structure is verified by conducting the test on PSIM as well as experimentally.

Fluctuating wind conditions necessitate the use of a variable speed wind turbine (VSWT) with a AC/DC/AC converter scheme in order to harvest the maximum power from the wind and to decouple the synchronous generator voltage and frequency from the grid voltage and frequency. In this paper, a combination of a three phase diode bridge rectifier (DBR) and a modified topology of the diode clamped multilevel inverter (DCMLI) has been considered as an AC/DC/AC converter. A control strategy has been proposed for the DCMLI to achieve the objective of grid interface of a wind power system together with local load compensation. A novel fixed frequency current control method is proposed for the DCMLI based on the level shifted multi carrier PWM for achieving the required control objectives with equal and uniform switching frequency operation for better control and thermal management with the modified DCMLI. The condition of the controller gain is derived to ensure the operation of the DCMLI at the fixed frequency of the carrier. The converter current injected into the distribution grid is controlled in accordance with the wind power availability. In addition, load compensation is performed as an added facility in order to free the source currents being fed from the grid of harmonic distortion, unbalance and a low power factor even though the load may be unbalanced, non-linear and of a poor power factor. The results are validated using PSCAD/EMTDC simulation studies.

Single-phase and three-phase AC to DC power converters are becoming frequently used for high voltage/high power applications such as telecommunications. They often require input/output transformer isolation for safety, a unity input power factor for minimum reactive power, free input harmonic currents fed back to the AC Power distribution system and, finally, high efficiency and high power density for minimum weight and volume. The proposed boost converter for power factor correction (PFC) provides an unity input power factor, low harmonic distortion and high efficiency along with reduced volume and weight. Single-phase 220VAC input/380VDC 1KW output prototype is constructed and experimental results will be verified with those of PSpice simulation.

This paper deals with a ride-through technique of doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) wind turbine systems using energy storage unit (ESU). By increasing the machine speed, some portion of the turbine power can be stored in the system inertia during grid faults. Also keeping the operation of rotor-side converter (RSC) and grid-side converter (GSC), the rotor current and DC-link voltage can be limited. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by simulation results for 2[MW] DFIG wind turbine system.

In this paper, a remote monitoring system of wind-photovoltaic hybrid generation system using mobile phone and internet has been developed. Many kinds of data can be acquired, analyzed and saved automatically by this system. The hybrid system is composed of 1[kW] PV with DC/DC converter, battery banks and 5[kW] wind power system with power inductor and AC/DC converter. In addition, wind monitoring sensors, voltage and current meters, current transformers and potential transformers are used as accessory instruments. All of these signals are fed into DAQ (Data Acquisition) board after converting the data which have been processed by many types of converters, dividing circuits and signal conditioning circuits. These data can not only be displayed on a computer, transmitted using the server program to remote computer and saved on a computer as a file day by day but also be sent as a CDMA message. The monitored-data can be downloaded, analyzed and saved from server program in real-time via mobile phone or internet at a remote place. All of the programs were designed with LabVIEW software.
