This paper describes a current differential relaying algorithm for power transformers with an advanced compensation algorithm for the secondary current of CTs. The comparative study was conducted with and without the compensating algorithm. The algorithm can reduce the operating time of the relay in the case of an internal fault and improve security for external faults. The performance of the proposed algorithm was investigated when the C100 CT, a quarter of the rated CT(C400), is used.

This paper presents an isolated power factor correction converter for general-purpose electric vehicle chargers with a wide output voltage range. The converter is based on an asymmetrical dual active bridge structure so that the voltage stress of switching devices can be eliminated by transferring the transformer leakage inductance to the circuit parameters. Harmonic and output controls are performed by secondary switches, and primary switches are only operated at a fixed frequency with a 50% duty ratio. A harmonic modulation technique is also adopted to obtain a near-unity power factor without input current monitoring. The feasibility of the proposed charger is verified with a 3.3 kW prototype.

This paper presents a novel transformer isolated parallel connected full-bridge dc-dc converter using recently developed trans-Z-source network. Unlike the traditional voltage -fed or current-fed converters, the proposed converter can be open- and short-circuited without damaging switching devices. Therefore, the desired buck and boost function can be achieved and the converter reliability can be greatly improved. A 6 kW prototype dc-dc converter is built and tested to verify performances of the proposed converter.

This paper proposes a utility parallel processing inverter system, which consists of a voltage source PWM inverter, isolation transformer and a reactor linking the inverter to utility line. This system realizes following functions : (1) voltage phase frequency and amplitude synchronization between inverter and utility line at stand-alone mode. (2) current phase synchronization between inverter and load at parallel mode. Therefore, despite sudden increase in load current over setting point at stand-alone mode, inverter system can be transferred into parallel mode immediately without transient current. Furthermore, high frequency(18KHz) PWM control and sinusoidal filtering improve the inverter output waveform by eliminating high order harmonic components as well as low order. As a switching device, IGBT is used for high frequency switching and large current capacity.

This paper introduces a gate drive IC for power modules with shoot-through immunity. A new approach uses a bootstrap diode as a high-side voltage bias and a level shift function at the same time. Therefore, the gate drive circuit becomes a simple and low-cost without conventional level shift functions such as HVIC(High-Voltage IC), optocoupler and transformer. The proposed gate drive IC is designed and fabricated using the Dongbu-Hitek's 0.35um BD350BA process. It has been tested and verified with IGBT modules.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of hole or crack on the Insulation characteristics of a PET films for EHV(Extra High Voltage) VT winding. The hole or the crack in the PET films was made and the insulation characteristics of them were measured. Ad an experimental result, it was shown hat he PDIV(Partial Discharge Inception Voltage) and the BDV(Breakdown Voltage) of the PET films with hole or crack were lower than those without them, and were markedly dependent on their position and temperature. Therefore, the hole and the crack affected to insulation characteristics of PET films for SF$_{6}$EHV(Extra High Voltage) VT Winding.g.

In this paper, we persents a new PAM method without the input transformer for reducing harmonics in input AC line currents of converter. This system can reduce the harmonics like conventional 12-pulse converter. the dual bridge circuits are controlled with the shifted firing angle and connected 2 tap interphase reactor. the input current using 2 tap changing on interphase reactor is controlled with the different two values in order to make the input current waveform 12 pulses. The chracteristics of this system were confirmed through the computer simulation and the experiments.

This paper proposes a new type of voltage sag-swell compensator based on a Z-source AC-AC converter. The proposed topology employs a pulse width modulation (PWM) Z-source AC-AC converter along with a injection transformer. A safe commutation strategy is used to eliminate voltage spikes on switches without snubber circuit. During a voltage sag or swell, the proposed system controls the adding or missing voltage and maintains the rated voltage of sinusoidal waveform at the terminals of the critical loads. The proposed system is able to compensate 20[%] voltage swell and is also able to compensate 60[%] voltage sag. In order to control and detect the voltage sag and swell, the peak voltage detection method is applied. Also, the operating principles of the proposed system are described, and a circuit analysis is provided. Finally, PSIM simulation and experimental results are presented to verify the proposed concept and theoretical analysis.
