Generally, PHEV(plug-in hybrid electric vehicle) is driven by the engine, the primary traction motor, and the secondary auxiliary motor generating the electric power for battery charging. Secondary auxiliary motor should be connected to the engine or separated from the engine by the clutch system. This paper presents the position controller using BLDC motor for the clutch system of PHEV. BLDC motor can be applied to the clutch system in spite of it's low resolution of the position sensor due to high gear ratio between the clutch and the motor. Since the attachment and the detachment between the motor and the engine should be carried out within 0.3 seconds, the position controller with fast acceleration and deceleration must be implemented. For the torque control with braking operation for the BLDC motor, the modified bipolar PWM method with low current ripple compared to the conventional unipolar PWM is proposed. The position control performance of the BLDC motor for clutch system is verified through the simulation and experiments.

Impedance-based stability criterions have been proved to be a very effective tool for the stability assessment when considering interaction between different modules. Two different stability criterions in the form of impedance ratio as Zo/Zi and Zi/Zo have been proposed for different system. However, the intrinsic relationship of these criterions has not been fully discussed. In this paper, the terminal characteristics of single module are focused. The physical meanings of terminal impedance and admittance are explained. Based on the physical understanding, different mathematical methods are derived for the stability prediction in cascade system. Through comparison, the advantage of proposed impedance/admittance stability criterion is analyzed as its convenience in mathematical calculation. As analyzed, the proposed impedance/admittance criterion can be used in the cascade system where existing impedance ratio type criterion can be used and the physical meaning of proposed criterion is clearer.

The steady-state and dynamic performances of a new high-power variable speed wind-energy conversion system (WECS) that uses a six-phase permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) with twelve-pulse back-to-back pulse width modulated current source converters is assessed. The proposed WECS inherently has all the features of existing systems based on voltage source converters, such as voltage control and fault ride-through capability, but with increased reliability and improved ac side waveform quality, benefiting from the three-winding phase shifting transformer for further attenuation of the low-order harmonics. PSCAD/EMTDC simulation is used to assess the steady-state and dynamic behaviours of the proposed system under different operating conditions. Experimental results, obtained using a prototype grid side dual current source inverter (CSI), are presented to validate the proposed technique.

This paper proposes a mobile power for the Sectional Compact Emergency Shelter (SCES), which is used for the field hospitals, disaster response offices, and so on under the great disaster. The proposed mobile power consists of the fuel cells (FCs), photovoltaic cells (PVs) and lead-acid batteries. All of the power resources and necessary electrical equipments are constructed in a container car. Therefore, the constructed mobile power is easily moveable and constructive with the SCESs. The FCs can supply power continuously. The PVs are installed on the roof of SCES. The generated power from the PVs is fluctuated by weather conditions. Thus, the lead-acid batteries are installed for levering the difference between the generated power and consumed power in the SCES. The basic principle of the proposed ubiquitous power is discussed in detail, then confirmed by digital computer simulation using PLECS software. The simulation results demonstrate that the ubiquitous power can supply the power to the SCES continuously in winter in Japan. It is concluded that the proposed ubiquitous power is the good solution for power supply of SCES under the great disaster with the SCES.

In this paper, an isolated high frequency link AC-AC converter for voltage compensation is proposed to maintain the quality of electric power in modern grid. The proposed converter can achieve arbitrary voltage output without any large electrolytic capacitors. Thus the system is more reliable and less costly compared with the traditional inverter-type solutions. Furthermore, the converter has no line frequency transformer, which also reduces the cost. The control scheme based on sinusoidal wave modulation technology is proposed to achieve better performance on voltage compensation, such as unbalanced voltage harmonics elimination. The converter and system configuration is introduced and the control strategy is described in details. The simulation and experimental results are given to shows the effectiveness of the proposed isolated high frequency link AC-AC converter and sinusoidal wave modulation technology.

We present a simple and rapid prototyping technique for Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGAs)-based digital controllers for power electronics and motor drives using MATLAB's Simulink and HDL Coder design software. The MATLAB/Simulink models are optimized and converted to target independent, specific and traceable Very High Speed Integrated Circuit Hardware Description Language (VHDL) code for FPGA programming. An example implementation of the space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) technique is presented, illustrating the design of a generic 3-phase voltage source inverter (VSI). Simulation and co-simulation, system level design, and verification for rapid prototyping of FPGA-based digital controllers will assist power electronics engineers and researchers to develop and prototypes in a relatively short time by eliminating tedious and time-consuming manual coding. This enables increased productivity and facilitates the development of power electronic controllers with more complex control algorithms.

This paper proposes an algorithm to calculate the optimal amplitude and phase of the harmonic current components that can be injected in the circulating currents of a modular multilevel converter (MMC) to minimize the capacitor voltage fluctuations. An optimal second harmonic component and an optimal set of second and fourth harmonic components are proposed. Simulation results are obtained in MATLAB/Simulink environment to study the effectiveness of the calculated optimal currents. Selected experimental results have been obtained from an MMC laboratory prototype, testing the effects of the circulating currents. The reported results demonstrate the effectiveness of using a fourth harmonic component in the circulating current, which improves the effect of the second harmonic on reducing the capacitor voltage fluctuations.

Microgrid consists of various micro sources, power electronic devices, and constant power loads (CPLs), because of which, there is a stability problem in such system. Therefore, stability analysis must be taken into consideration regardless of in the design or in the operation of microgrid. In this paper, the method modeling the CPLs in AC system is analyzed. A small signal state-space model of microgrid is developed, which consists of a sub-model of power controller, a sub-model of CPLs, and a sub-model of network and loads. The relationship between the small-signal stability of microgrid and such affecting factors as droop gain, CPLs, and equivalent line impedance is studied. A simulation model of a microgrid operating in islanding mode is developed in PSCAD, to demonstrate the conclusion of eigenvalue analysis.

This paper presents a theoretical analysis, an optimal design method and experimental results for a wireless power transfer (WPT) system with an intermediate coil. The analytical expression of the DC voltage transfer function is presented and discussed. In a two coil WPT system, which has low coupling coefficient, the intermediate coil boosts the self-inductance and magnetizing inductance of the primary side at around the resonance frequency of the intermediate coil, so that the coupling coefficient is compensated. The coupling coefficient makes the system efficiency increase and induces bi-furcation phenomenon. From the analysis, this paper proposes an optimal design method using the second resonance frequency operation with the bi-furcation phenomenon and presents design procedure for high efficiency. A prototype of the WPT system with the intermediate coil is implemented and experimented to verify the validity of the analysis and the proposed design method. The prototype operates at 100 kHz switching frequency and has an air gap between primary and secondary side of 200mm. An overall system efficiency of 95.57% has been achieved at 6.6kW of output power.
