Many generating units can be in parallel connection to one battery and inverter. However, one of the biggest problems we encountered is that wind speed is fluctuated sharply in accordance with the unstable weather conditions. To solve this problem, we need energy storage equipment such as storage lead-acid battery. We design a system and analyze its modeling so that it supplies a stable power to the load through DC-AC inverter part. In this paper, we applied dual step-up/down buck-boost converter and dual high-frequency half-bridge converter to the proposed system. These converters are used to store energy in the battery regardless of the change of the wind speed. The operation process of two proposed types of converters for high-power battery charging is discussed along with simulation and experimental result. We design a charging circuit which is applicable in the actual wind power generation system for 30kw and confirm the circuit's validity.

This paper is about the study of a stand-alone photovoltaic power conditioning system with an energy storage system with battery. The paper proposes the appropriate circuit model of stand-alone PV PCS considering the maintenance of the battery system.

Lastly, it shows the way to choose the suitable battery and to design the model of bi-directional converter for charging and discharging battery. PSIM simulation is used to validate the proposed algothim of the system.

A multilayer square-type piezoelectric transformer with a hole at the center was investigated in this paper. Temperature distribution at the center was improved by using this construction, therefore increasing input voltage and output power. This model was simulated and investigated successfully by applying a finite element method (FEM) in ATILA software. An optimized structure was then fabricated, examined, and compared to the simulation results. Electrical characteristics, including output voltage and output power, were measured at different load resistances. The temperature distribution was also monitored using an infrared camera. The piezoelectric transformer operated at first radial vibration mode and a frequency area of 70 kHz. The 16 W output power was achieved in a three-layer transformer with 96% efficiency and $20^{\circ}C$ temperature rise from room temperature under 115 V driving voltage, 100 ${\Omega}$ matching load, $28{\times}28{\times}1.8mm$ size, and 2 mm hole diameter. With these square-type multilayer piezoelectric transformers, the temperature was concentrated around the hole and lower than in piezoelectric transformers without a hole.

Lithium rechargeable cells are used in many industrial applications, because they have high energy density and high power density. For an effective use of these lithium cells, it is essential to build a reliable battery management system (BMS). Therefore, the state of charge (SOC) estimation is one of the most important techniques used in the BMS. An appropriate modeling of the battery characteristics and an accurate algorithm to correct the modeling errors in accordance with the simplified model are required for practical SOC estimation. In order to implement these issues, this approach presents the comparative analysis of the SOC estimation performance using equivalent electrical circuit modeling (EECM) and noise suppression technique (NST) in three representative $LiCoO_2/LiFePO_4/LiNiMnCoO_2$ cells extensively applied in electric vehicles (EVs), hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) and energy storage system (ESS) applications. Depending on the difference between some EECMs according to the number of RC-ladders and NST, the SOC estimation performances based on the extended Kalman filter (EKF) algorithm are compared. Additionally, in order to increase the accuracy of the EECM of the $LiFePO_4$ cell, a minor loop trajectory for proper OCV parameterization is applied to the SOC estimation for the comparison of the performances among the compared to SOC estimation performance.

Recently, an active-clamp, full-bridge boost converter has been actively studied for high-power applications such as power factor correction and battery discharger. However, DC and AC modeling for this converter has not conquered. In this paper, a DC and small-signal AC modeling for the active-clamp, full-bridge boost converter is described. Based on the operation principle, the ac part of the converter can be replaced by a do counterpart. Then, a conceptual equivalent circuit is derived by rearranging the switches. The equivalent circuit for this converter consists of CCM (Continuous conduction mode) boost and DCM (Discontinuous conduction mode) buck converter. The analyses for the equivalent CCM boost and DCM buck converter are done using the model of PWM switch. The theoretical modeling results are confirmed through experiment or SIMPLIS simulation.

본 논문에서는 소형 무인기의 전기추진 시스템에 대한 모델링 및 전력 시뮬레이션에 관하여 기술하였다. 각 전력원 모델링 및 시뮬레이션을 위해 Matlab/Simulink를 사용하였고, 연료전지와 배터리를 주 전력원으로 사용하는 200 W급 전기추진 시스템에 대하여 4시간 30분의 비행 시험결과와 시뮬레이션 한 결과를 비교하였다. 그 결과, 시뮬레이션은 각 전력원의 성능 및 동특성을 적절히 모사하였고, 이를 통해 다른 급의 전기추진 시스템에 대한 전력특성변화를 예측하는 도구로 활용 가능함을 알 수 있었다.

It is well known that an indirect methanol based fuel cell system imposes a performance limitation on the fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV) due to the reformer lag. An optional battery system can be used together with fuel cell to improve this performance limitation and it is called a fuel cell hybrid electric vehicle (FCHEV) this paper first describes the configuration of FCHEV with explanation of the energy flow between subsystems. Mathematical modeling of each subsystem such as a fuel cell system, a battery system, a driving motor with the transmission are formulated and coded using Matlab/simulink software. It is illustrated by simulation results that fuel cell modeling yields appropriate stack voltage in order to get the required current quantity with varying hydrogen flow.

The avionic battery discharge regulator (BDR) plays an important role in a power-conditioning unit. With its merits of high efficiency, stable transfer function, and continuous input and output currents, the non-isolated Weinberg converter (NIWC) is suitable for avionic BDR. An improved peak current control strategy is proposed to achieve high current-sharing accuracy. Current and voltage regulators are designed based on a small signal model of a three-module NIWC system. The system with the designed regulators operates stably under any condition and achieves excellent transient response and current-sharing accuracy.
