The paper presents a simulation model and analysis of a grid-connected variable speed wind energy conversion scheme (VSWECS) using the PSCAD/EMTDC software. The modeled system uses a variable speed drive, a fixed pitch angle, a synchronous generator as a wind generator and an AC-DC-AC conversion scheme, which facilitates the wind generation to efficiently operate under varying wind speed while connected to the distribution network. The power output of the WECS is controlled by the AC-DC-AC conversion scheme, the objective of which is to capture the maximum active power under varying wind conditions and to keep the voltage magnitude of the terminal bus at a specific level. Aerodynamic models are applied for a wind turbine model. An simulation analysis of the scheme in terms of its responding to wind variations is also presented.

This paper proposes a method of maximum power point tracking (MPPT) using fuzzy logic control for grid-connected photovoltaic systems (PV). First, for the purpose of comparison, because of its proven and good performances, the incremental conductance (IncCond) technique is briefly introduced. A double fuzzy logic controller (DFLC) based MPPT is then proposed which has shown better performances compared to the IncCond MPPT based approach. Modeling and Simulation in grid-connected PV system results are provided for both controllers under same atmospheric condition based PSCAD/EMTDC. The double fuzzy logic MPPT controller is then simulated and evaluated, which has shown better performances.

This paper proposes the control method of MPPT(maximum power point tracking) for the wind energy generation system using the duty ratio control of boost type DC-DC converter. For a lower cost and a higher reliability, the wind and the generator velocity sensors are removed. MPPT control is implemented by changing the duty ratio of the boost converter. Chain rule is applied by using each function. The grid side inverter is controlled to regulate unity power factor. The proposed control method was analyzed mathematically and verified by the computer simulation using PSIM.

This paper proposes a new power conditioning system for the fuel cell power generation, which consists of a ZVS DC-DC converter and 3-phase inverter. The ZVS DC-DC converter with a digital controller boosts the fuel cell voltage of 26-50V up to 400V, and the grid-tie inverter controls the active power delivered to the grid. The operation of proposed power conditioning system was verified through simulations with PSCAD/EMTDC software. The feasibility of hardware implementation was verified through experimental works with a laboratory prototype, which was built with 1.2kW PEM fuel-cell stack, 1kW DC-DC converter, and 3kW PWM inverter. The proposed system can be utilized to commercialize an interconnection system for the fuel-cell power generation.

This paper proposes a novel probabilistic load flow model for power systems integrated with large-scale wind power, which considers the multi-time scale dispatching features. The ramp limitations of the units and the steady-state security constraints of the network have been comprehensively considered for the entire duration of the study period; thus, the coupling of the system operation states at different time sections has been taken into account. For each time section, the automatic generation control (AGC) strategy is considered, and all variations associated with the wind power and loads are compensated by all AGC units. Cumulants and the Gram-Charlier expansion are used to solve the proposed model. The effectiveness of the proposed method is validated using the modified IEEE RTS 24-bus system and the modified IEEE 118-bus system.

In this paper, we have studied minimization of the burr which occurred after $\mu$-BGA(ball grid array) singulation process, singulation of the multilayer with a pulsed Nd:YAG(266, 532 nm) laser is used to cut the metal layer which doesn't well absorb laser beam. Especially, the photoresist and $N_2$blowing is effective to minimize of the surface demage and burr. In this experiment, the $N_2$ blowing reduces a laser energy loss by debris and suppress a surface oxidation. The SEM(scanning electron microscopes) and non-contact 3D inspector are used to measure cutting line-width and surface demage. The $\mu$-BGA singulation threshold energy is 75.0 J/cm$^2$at 30 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$/s scan speed.

We investigated grain boundary effect for terrestrial applications of solar cell\ulcorner with low cost, large area, and high efficiency. Grain boundaries are known as potential barriers and recombination centers for the photo-generated charge carriers, which make it difficult to achieve a high efficiency cell. To reduce these effects of grain boundaries, we investigated various influencing factors such as thermal treatments, various grid patterns, selective wet etchings for grain boundaries, buried contact metallizations along grain boundaries, and use of metallic thin films. From the various grid patterns we learned that the series resistance of solar cell reduced open circuit voltage and consequently decreased the cell efficiency. This paper describes the effect of various grid patterns and the employment of metallic thin films for a top electrode.

This paper resents a study on the electric facilities plan and application of low-voltage grid connection for a photovoltaic electric power station. The analysis for an installation cost is carried out and a new plan to solve the problem caused by a voltage drop in a low-voltage grid connection is devised. It is expected that the results can be usefully applied to spread the photovoltaic electric power station.
