3MW 풍력발전기용 발전기의 구조적 특성을 소개하고 회전자의 동특성 해석을 수행하였다. 이 발전기는 증속기를 사용하였으며 정격속도는 1459 rpm 이며 30% over speed trip 조건을 적용하여 설계되었다. 회전자 pole에 전원 공급 없이 자기장을 만드는 영구자석을 사용하는 형태로 구조는 간단하다. 발전기의 냉각방법은 공극을 냉각하기 위하여 팬을 이용하여 공기를 순환하며 고정자 외형에는 냉각채널을 부착하여 냉각수를 순환한다. 회전기계의 설계 시에는 반드시 진동을 고려하여 가능하면 진동을 줄이는 방향으로 설계가 되어야 하며 회전축 계의 설계에 있어서는 계의 강도, 위험속도, 불평형 진동응답 및 안정성 등을 고려하여야 한다. 본 논문에서는 물리설계를 기본으로 하여 설계된 발전기의 형상을 간단하게 설명하고, 발전기의 회전자를 상용 유한요소 해석 프로그램인 ANSYS 를 이용하여 해석을 수행하였다. 해석절차는 정적해석을 수행하고 다음으로 모드해석을 수행 하였다. 모드형상에 따른 주파수를 표기하고 해석 결과를 나타내었다.

The importance of ESS has been emphasized due to stabilization of power demand due to deterioration of network reliability and expansion of renewable energy sources. ESS (Energy Storage System) stores the remaining power and uses it when necessary to meet the power demand, and build the ESS system mainly in conjunction with solar and wind power. In this paper, we propose a home PV Charging Module using the Master-Slave method which is effective for low insolation. After designing the module, Fast MPPT algorithm is applied to generate the maximum output from the nonlinear output characteristics of the PV modules. The average power value for the input of PV Charging Module was 296.90 W and the output power was 289.60 W, which averaged 97.54%.

This paper describes a simple control structure and power conditioning system for an indirect vector controlled stand-alone induction generator (IG) used to operate under variable speed. The required reactive power for the IG system is supplied by means of a capacitor bank and a voltage-source PWM converter. Using a capacitor bank to transfer the reactive power to the IG under the rated speed and no-load conditions starts the IG operation and reduces the PWM converter size. The vector control structure for the variable speed IG power conditioning system compensates for changes in the electrical three-phase and DC loads while considering the magnetizing curve of the IG. The vector control structure is developed to regulate the DC link voltage of the PWM converter and the IG output voltage. The experimental and simulated performance results of the IG power conditioning system at various speeds and loads are given and show that this proposed scheme can be used efficiently for a variable speed, wind energy conversion system.

This paper presents the digital computer performance evaluations of the three-phase self-excited induction generator (SEIG) driven by the variable speed prime mover such as the wind turbine using the nodal admittance approach steady-state frequency domain analysis with the experimental results. The three-phase SEIG setup is implemented for small-scale rural renewable energy utilizations. The experimental performance results give a good agreement with those ones obtained from the digital computer simulation. Furthermore, a feedback closed-loop voltage regulation of the three-phase SEIG as a power conditioner which is driven by a variable speed prime mover employing the static VAR compensator (SVC) circuit composed of the thyristor phase controlled reactor (TCR) and the thyristor switched capacitor(TSC) is designed and considered herein for the wind-turbine driven the power conditioner. To validate the effectiveness of the SVC-based voltage regulator of the terminal voltage of the three-phase SEIG, an inductive load parameter disturbances in stand-alone are applied and characterized in this paper. In the stand-alone power utilization system, the terminal voltage response and thyristor triggering angle response of the TCR are plotted graphically. The simulation and the experimental results prove the effectiveness and validity of the proposed SVC which is controlled by the Pl controller in terms of fast response and high performances of the three-phase SEIG driven directly by the rural renewable energy utilization like a variable-speed prime mover.

계통연계 풍력발전시스템의 특성을 고찰하기 위해서는 블레이드, wind turbine, 정류기, 인버터 등의 풍력발전시스템의 각 구성요소의 모델링과 적절한 제어 알고리즘에 대한 모의가 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 동기발전기를 풍력발전기로 사용하고 있는 계통연계형 풍력발전시스템의 출력 및 동특성을 모의하기 위한 전류제어형 전압원인버터의 PSCAD/EMTDC 모듈을 제시한다. 풍속의 가변특성에 의해 동기발전기에 들어오는 입력은 변하게 되고, 동기발전기가 동기주파수를 유지할 수 있도록 인버터에서는 이러한 입력과 동일한 출력을 낼 수 있어야 하며, 동시에 계통에서 허용하는 일정 전압과 계통주파수와 동일한 주파수를 갖는 출력을 공급해야 한다. 본 논문에서는 이를 위해 동기발전기의 주파수를 제어하는 전류제어형 전압원인버터 모듈을 소개한다. 모의를 통해 결과를 검증한다.

A GFRP based composite blade was developed for a 750kW wind energy conversion system of type class I. The blade sectional geometry was designed to have a general shell-spar structure. The load cases specified in the IEC61400-1 international specification were considered. For withstanding all relevant extreme loads, the structural analysis for the complete blade was performed using a commercial FEM code. The static load carrying capacity, buckling stability, blade tip deflection and natural frequencies at various rotational speeds were evaluated to satisfy the strength requirements in accordance with the IEC61400-1 and GL Regulations. For designing a lightweight blade, the thickness and the lay-up pattern of the skin-foam sandwich structures were optimized iteratively using the DOT program T-bolts were used for joining the blade root and the hub, which were modeled using a 3D FE volume model. In order to confirm the safety of the root connection, the static stresses of the thick root laminate and the steel. bolts were predicted by taking account of the bolt pretension and the root bending moments. The calculated stresses were compared with the material strengths.

Nuclear power plants in South Korea are operated to cover the baseload demand. Hence they are operated at 100% rated power and do not deploy power tracking control except for startup, shutdown, or during transients. However, as the contribution of renewable energy in the energy mix increases, load follow operation may be needed to cover the imbalance between consumption and production due to the intermittent nature of electricity produced from the conversion of wind or solar energy. Load follow operation may be quite challenging since the operators need to control the axial power distribution and core reactivity while simultaneously conducting the power maneuvering. In this paper, a systems engineering approach for multi-physics load follow simulation of APR1400 is performed. RELAP5/SCDAPSIM/MOD3.4/3DKIN multi-physics package is selected to simulate the Korean Advanced Power Reactor, APR1400, under load follow operation to reflect the impact of feedback signals on the system safety parameters. Furthermore, the systems engineering approach is adopted to identify the requirements, functions, and physical architecture to provide a set of verification and validation activities that guide this project development by linking each requirement to a validation or verification test with predefined success criteria.

The wave spectrum was generated from wave data measured at the Chagwi-do site in Jeju, where a 10MW class floating wave-offshore wind hybrid power generation system will be installed. The latching control technology (Sheng et al.[2015]) was applied in order to improve the extracted power from WEC (Wave Energy Converter), which is heaving in corresponding irregular waves. The peak period as a representative value of irregular waves was used when we determined the latching duration. From the numerical results in the time-domain analysis, the latching control technology can significantly improve the extracted power about 50%.

This paper presents an analysis and a novel strategy for a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) based wind energy conversion system under unbalanced grid voltage and non-linear load conditions. A proportional-resonant (PR) current controller is applied in both grid side converter (GSC) and rotor side converter (RSC). The RSC is controlled to mitigate the stator active power and the rotor current oscillations at double supply frequency under unbalanced grid voltage while the GSC is controlled to mitigate ripples in the dc-link voltage and compensate harmonic components of the network current. Simulation results using Psim simulation program are presented for a 2 MW DFIG to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.

풍력을 이용한 풍력발전기의 효율적 전력변환 시스템을 연구개발하기 위해서는 바람의 특성을 실내에서 정확히 구현할 수 있는 모의시험장치인 시뮬레이터가 요구된다. 모의시험장치는 바람을 받아 회전하는 블레이드 대신 풍속 값을 입력하여 전동기가 발전기에 토오크(torque)를 공급하게 된다. 모의시험장치를 설계하고 구현에 있어서 중요한 요소는 블라인드의 관성시정수와 축소모델인 5.83kW 모델 발전기 설계제작 그리고 고효율의 전력변환장치 설계 및 인버터 특성 알고리즘 구현이다. 본 논문은 2MW Gearless형 풍력발전기 KBP-2000M을 400:1 축소하여 제작한 모의실험장치에 최고의 출력 파워를 얻도록 Pitch Control 알고리즘을 적용한 측정 결과를 소개한다.
