Abstract

Many studies have been conducted to reduce environmental pollution by ships and reduce fuel consumption. As part of this effort, research on power conversion systems through DC distribution systems that link renewable energy with conventional power grids has been pursued as well. The diode rectifiers currently used include many lower harmonics in the input current of the load and distort supply voltage to lower the power quality of the whole system. This distortion of voltage waveforms causes the malfunctions of generators, load devices and inverter pole switching elements, resulting in a large number of switching losses. In this paper, a controller is presented to improve DC output waveforms, the input Power Factor and the THD of an AFE type PWM rectifier used for PLL. DC output voltage waveforms have been improved, and the input Power Factor can now be matched to the unit power factor. In addition, the THD of the input power supply has been proven by simulation to comply with the requirements of IEEE Std514-2014.

선박에서 배출되는 환경오염물질 저감 및 연료 소비를 줄이기 위한 다양한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 이에 따라 기존의 전력망과 신재생에너지를 연계 시킬 수 있는 직류배전시스템의 한 부분인 전력변환시스템에 대한 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 현재 전력변환장치로 주로 사용되고 있는 다이오드 정류기는 부하의 입력전류에 많은 저차고조파가 포함되어 공급전압의 왜곡을 초래하고 전체시스템의 전력품질을 저하시킨다. 일정하지 않은 출력 전압파형은 발전기, 부하기기 등에 오작동 유발 및 인버터 단의 스위칭 소자에 영향을 미치며 스위칭 손실을 증가 시킨다. 본 논문에서는 AFE(Active Front End) 방식 PWM(Pulse Width Modulation) 정류기의 직류출력, 입력 전원의 역률 및 총고조파왜형률(Total Harmonic Distortion)을 개선하기 위해서 PLL회로를 사용한 제어기를 설계하였고, 시뮬레이션 결과 직류 출력전압 파형과 입력전원의 역률이 기존 보다 개선되었으며 총고조파왜형률 또한 IEEE Std514-2014 규정에 적합한 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.
