최근 대체에너지에 대한 관심이 많아진 가운데 풍력발전에 대한 관심이 증대하고 있다. 풍력발전기는 사람의 접근이 용이하지 않은 산간벽지에 주로 설치됨에 따라 상시 운전상태를 모니터링하기 위한 원격 모니터링 장치가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 풍력발전기의 원격 모니터링 시스템을 개발에서 필요한 요소기술 분야의 설계 방법을 제시한다. 다수의 풍력발전기가 설치되는 풍력단지에서 효과적으로 모니터링을 위해 Zigbee 무선통신을 사용하여 모니터링하고, 모니터링 시스템 구현이 용이한 LabVIEW를 활용하여 실시간 상태 모니터링의 설계 요소를 제안한다.

Renewable energy resources play an important part in the world's future. Renewable energy sources have the following components: biomass, geothermal, solar thermal, directs solar, wind, tidal and hydropower. Hydropower is still the most efficient way to generate electricity worldwide. Hydropower projects can contribute as a cheap energy source, as well to encourage the development of small industries across a wide range of new technology; furthermore hydropower systems use the energy in flowing and falling water to produce electricity or mechanical energy. Hydropower systems are classified as large, medium, small, mini and micro according to their installed power generation capacity, as do the following components: water turbines, control mechanisms and electrical transmissions. In this article a review of small hydropower systems has been done on the principles surrounding the fundamentals of hydraulic engineering, the fundamentals of hydrology, identification of sites and economic analysis.

최근 환경 파괴와 에너지 고갈에 대한 문제들이 사회의 큰 문제로 대두 되면서 풍력발전의 중요성이 증가하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 LabVIEW를 이용하여 이더넷(Ethernet) 환경에서의 풍력발전 원격감시 제어시스템을 구현하였다. 제안된 원격감시 제어시스템은 풍력발전 시스템의 MCU와 W5100의 SPI(Serial Peripheral Interface)를 통한 이더넷 통신용 하드웨어를 구축하였으며, NI사의 LabVIEW를 이용하여 서버상의 HMI(Human Machine Interface) 소프트웨어를 구현하였다. 본 연구의 실험을 위해 영구자석형 동기 발전기(PMSG:Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator)를 이용하여 풍력발전 시스템 모델을 구현하고 이를 이용하여 원격감시 제어시스템의 성능을 검증하였다.

Taper roller bearing is used on rotating shaft where radial and thrust loads are attended. To avoid the sudden failure and maintain the good condition of rotating machinery it is necessary to monitor the condition of bearing and diagnose the defect of bearing. In this study the diagnosis program of taper roller bearing which is used on the lower bearing of V.A.W.T. (Vertical Axis Wind Turbine) is developed. By plenty of test the database is constructed and by Gaussian distribution obtained from database the defect probability of bearing is calculated.

본 논문에서는 직렬운전 소형풍력발전시스템의 해석 방법과 최대 파워를 추종하는 MPPT(Maximum Power Point Tracking)기법을 제안한다. 소형풍력 발전시스템은 개별 발전기에서 생성되는 역기전력이 낮아 배터리 충전과 같은 독립적인 부하에 전원을 공급하는 용도로 쓰이나 발전기를 N개 직렬연결하면 계통연계가 가능하다. 일반적인 풍력발전 시스템에서의 블레이드 출력은 출력 계수($C_p$) 곡선의 형태에 의해서 결정되고, 출력계수 곡선은 주속비(${\lambda}$)의 함수로 표현된다. N개의 발전기를 직렬연결 하는 경우 각기 다른 풍속에 대하여 출력파워 해석이 곤란하므로, 직렬 운전 시 발전기토크를 기준으로 한 해석과 이에 적합한 MPPT 방법을 제안한다.

본 논문에서는 신재생에너지원인 1.5MW 풍력발전기가 연계된 계통에 2MVA/500kWh BESS(Battery Energy Storage System)를 적용하여 실증시험을 수행한 결과를 기술하였다. 풍력발전기의 출력 전력을 측정하여 제어 알고리즘에 따라 충, 방전 지령값을 계산하는 상위제어기 EMS와 BESS를 연동하여 운전하였다. 이를 통해 BESS를 이용하여 풍력발전기의 출력이 심하게 변동하여도 계통으로 송전되는 전력을 안정적으로 제어할 수 있음을 검증하였다.

Due to enhanced demands on quality, security and reliability of the electric power energy system, a microgrid has become a subject of special interest. In this paper, output characteristics of energy storage system (ESS) with an electric double layer capacitor (EDLC) and battery energy storage system (BESS) of a renewable energy based microgrid were analyzed under grid-connected and islanded operation modes. The microgrid which consists of photovoltaic and wind power turbine generators, diesel generator, ESS with an EDLC, BESS and loads was modeled using real time digital simulator. The results present the effective control patterns of the microgrid system.

This paper proposes a new effective installed reserve rate in order to evaluate reliability of power system considering renewable generators, which include uncertainty of resource supply. It is called EIRR(effective installed reserve rate) in this paper. It is developed with considering capacity credit based on ELCC by using LOLE reliability criterion. While the conventional installed reserve rate index yields over-evaluation reliability of renewable generators, the proposed EIRR describes actual effective installed reserve rate. However, it is not the probabilistic reliability index as like as LOLE or EENS but another deterministic effective reliability index. The proposed EIRR is able to evaluate the realistic contribution to the reliability level for power system considering wind turbine generators and solar cell generators with high uncertainty in resource supply. The case study in model system as like as Jeju power system size presents a possibility that the proposed EIRR can be used practically as a new deterministic reliability index for generation expansion planning or operational planning in future.

The conventional power system allowed only downstream power flow. Therefore, even if a fault occurs, only the forward current flow is considered. However, with the interest in distributed generation (DG), DGs such as Photovoltaic (PV), Wind Turbine (WT) are being connected to a power system. DGs have many advantages, but they also have disadvantage such as generation of reverse flow. Reverse flow can severely disrupt existing protection systems that only consider downstream power flow. The major problems that may arise from reverse power flow are blinding protection and sympathetic tripping. In order to solve such problems, the methods of installing a directional relay or a fault current limiter is proposed. However, this method is inconceivable because of the economics shortage. Therefore, in this paper, a distance relay installed in existing power system is used to solve the protection problem. Modeling of distance relay has been carried out using ElectroMagnetic Transients Program (EMTP), and it has been verified through simulations that the above problems can be solved by a distance relay.
