Energy storage is a key issue when integrating large amounts of intermittent and non-dispatchable renewable energy sources into electric power systems. To maintain the instantaneous power balance and to compensate for the influence of power fluctuations from renewable sources, flexible capability for power control is needed. Adjustable Speed Pumped Storage Power Generator is pumped storage unit that is adjustable for pump output adjustments as well as the highest efficiency operations because it has fast response time. In this paper we address the adjustable speed pumped storage power generator for frequency control against the intermittence of wind turbine output and calculate the appropriate capacity of adjustable speed pumped storage power generator.

Induction motor control using for adjustable speed drives has caused secondary effect such as harmonics. Therefore it is considered a various countermeasures to minimize these effects. In this paper, we analyzed the influence of harmonics that is generated by the inverter device for adjustable speed drive of induction motor at the load side.

This paper studies the scope and text summary of international standards related to adjustable speed d.c. drive systems, especially IEC 61800-1 and IEC 61136-1. IEC 61800-1 applies to general purpose adjustable speed d.c. drive systems which include the power conversion, control equipment, and also a motor or motors. This standard applies to power drive systems connected to line voltages up to 1kV a.c., 50Hz or 60Hz. IEC 61136-1 provides alternative methods for specifying ratings for semiconductor power convertors for adjustable speed electric drive systems, particularly for d.c. motor drives.

This paper proposes Fuzzy Speed Estimator using Fuzzy Logic Controller(FLC) as a adaptive law in Model Reference Adaptive System(MRAS) in order to realize the speed-sensorless control of an induction motor. Fuzzy Speed Estimator estimates the speed of an induction motor with a rotor flux of the reference model and the adjustable model in MRAS. Fuzzy logic controller reduces the error of the rotor flux between the reference model and the adjustable model using the error and the change of error of the rotor flux as the input of FLC. The experiment is executed to verify the propriety and the effectiveness of the proposed speed estimator.

This paper proposes a stand-alone adjustable speed wind Power generation system using a cage-type induction generator. Indirect vector control is used, where the q-axis current controls the generator speed and the d-axis current controls the excitation level. The generator speed is adjusted according to the wind speed so as to produce the maximum output power. The generated power is charged in the battery bank through ac/dc PWM converter. The proposed scheme has been verified by the experimental results.

IEC 61800 is an international standard on adjustable speed electrical power drive systems, which consists of three parts. IEC 61800-1 and IEC 61800-2 apply to DC power drive systems and AC power drive systems, respectively, which include power conversion, control equipment, and also a motor or motors. IEC 61800-3 specifies EMC ( Electro Magnetic Compatibility ) requirements for adjustable speed AC or DC motor drives connected to main supplies up to AC 1,000 volts. This paper studies the standards related to EMC and the text summary of international standard IEC 61800-3 which is an EMC product standard including specific test methods.

The switched reluctance motor(SRM) drive system provides a good adjustable speed and torque characteristics. However, because of the torque production mechanism, it also has some disadvantage such as higher torque ripple and fluctuation in speed. To reduce torque ripple and to control speed precisely, digital signal processor(BSP) is adopted. The DSP TMS320F241 was used to be realized this drive system. Test results show that the suggested control system has the ability of dynamic and precise speed control.

The development of the frequency converter using semiconductor enables to easily control the speed of A.C. motors. It is now technically possible and economically feasible to provide them with power at variable frequency, using silicon-controlled-rectifier (or thyristor) inverters. In such a case, if an induction motor is to be operated efficiently over a wide speed range, it must be supplied from a variable-frequency source whose frequency is adjustable over a range similar to that required for the motor speed. It is desired to observe how several characteristics are changed such as primary current, torque-speed, etc. Although the characteristics could be obtained by means of the conventional method, it requires very complicated calculation. It is assumed that the charateristics above are easily investigated by means of current diagram method from variable circuit constants relating to the motor which is designed in rated frequency. In this paper, the results of the study on the current-diagram method and its application are described as follows; (1) In order to discuss the construction of current diagram, the equation of the stator current with adjustable frequency was derived for applying the Current Diagram Method. (2) The radius, the center of the current circle and current vector locus at any desired frequency could be easily determined with the aid of both above mentioned equation and the standard current diagram at reference frequency. (3) This method could be applicable to the various types of Induction Motors, and this paper has dealt with its application to the capacitor, split-phase and 2-phase types of motors.

The development of the frequency convertors using semiconductors devices makes it possible to control the speed of A.C. motors easily. It is now economically feasible to provide them with power at adjustable frequency using silicon-controlled rectifier (or thyristor) inverters. In such a case, in order to operate an induction motor efficiently over a wide speed range, it must be supplied from a variable frequency source of which frequency is adjustable over the speed range of the motor. It is desired to observe the changes in characteristics as primary current, torque-speed of induction motor etc. at any optional frequency. Although the characteristics can be obtained by means of the conventional methods, they require very complicated precedures of calculations. The Current Diagram Method in this paper suggests a new approach to simpler calculations of the characteristics, using the motor constants at reference frequency. The conclusions of this study are summarized as follows: 1) The equations of stator current at adjusted frequency were derived to construct graphical chart and the current circle required for the Current Diagram Method. 2) The radius, center of the current circle and the vector locus, the basis for calculating the characteristics, at any desired frequency could be easily determined with the aid of both the derived graphical chart and current circle at reference frequency. 3) The method was shown to be applicable to the various types of 3-phase induction motors and also dealt with its application to the split-phase, condenser motors.
