본 연구는 밸리-필 정류기를 이용한 전류 THD 개선 방법을 제시한다. 제안된 회로는 밸리-필 정류기와 부스팅 인덕터를 결합한 구조를 가지며, AC/DC 변환과 PFC를 동시에 수행한다. PWM 스위칭에 따른 부스팅 효과로 입력전류를 제어하여 밸리-필 정류기의 특성을 개선한다. 이 결과는 낮은 전류 THD를 보장한다. 동작 모드와 전류 THD를 분석하고, 최적 부스팅 인덕터를 결정한다. 밸리-필 정류기와 부스팅 인덕터를 채용한 100[W] AC/DC 컨버터를 제작하였고, 시뮬레이션과 실험으로 제안된 방법의 타당성을 검증하였다.

This paper proposes a control method for reducing the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the grid current of three-phase grid-connected inverter systems when the grid voltage is distorted. The THD of the grid current caused by grid voltage harmonics is derived by considering the phase delay and magnitude attenuation due to the hardware low-pass filter (LPF). The Cauchy-Schwarz inequality theory is used in order to search more easily for the minimum point of the THD. Both the gain and angle of the compensation voltage at the minimum point of the THD of the grid current are derived with the variation of cut-off frequencies of the hardware LPF. Simulation and experimental results show the validity of the proposed control methods.

본 논문은 인버터의 출력단과 계통사이에 비선형부하가 연결되어 있는 상황에서 계통 전류의 THD를 개선하기 위해 반복제어기를 적용한다. 반복제어기는 주기적인 오차를 모델링하고 미리 보상하여 정상상태시 오차를 줄이는 목적으로 설계된 제어기이기에 계통전류 THD 개선에 효과적이다. 본 논문은 인버터의 공급전력이 부하의 소비전력보다 큰 경우 또는 부하의 소비전력보다 작은 경우에도 계통의 전류 THD는 개선되도록 하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 시뮬레이션의 결과를 통해 계통 전류의 THD 개선을 확인한다.

Objectives : Methicillin-resistantStaphylococcus aureus(MRSA) is a human pathogen. New antibacterial agents are needed to treat MRSA-related infections. This study investigated the antibacterial activity of EtOH 70% extracts ofTonghyeonipal-dan(THD) which prescription is composed of oriental medicine against MRSA.Methods : The antibacterial activity of THD was evaluated against MRSA strains by using the Disc diffusion method, broth microdilution method, Checkerboard dilution test, and Time-kill test; its mechanism of action was investigated by bacteriolysis, detergent or ATPase inhibitors were used.Results : The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of THD is 1,000~2,000 μg/mL against MRSA. In the checkerboard dilution test, fractional inhibitory concentration index (FICI) of THD in combination with antibiotics indicated synergy or partial synergism againstS. aureus. Furthermore, a time-kill assay showed that the growth of the tasted bacteria was considerably inhibited after 24 h of treatment with the combination of THD with selected antibiotics. For measurement of cell membrane permeability, THD 500 μg/mL along with concentration of Triton X-100 (TX) and Tris-(hydroxymethyl) aminomethane (TRIS) were used. In the other hand, N,N-dicyclohexylcarbodimide (DCCD) and Sodium azide (NaN3) were used as an inhibitor of ATPase. TX, TRIS, DCCD and NaN3 cooperation againstS. aureusshowed synergistic action.Conclusions : Accordingly, antimicrobial activity of THD was affected by cell membrane and inhibitor of ATPase were assessed. These results suggest that THD has antibacterial activity, and that THD extract offers great potential as a natural antibiotic against MRSA.

본 논문에서는 총고조파 왜율(THD, Total Harmonic Distortion)과 리플 감쇄율(RAF, Ripple Attenuation Factor)을 이용한 계통연계 인버터용 LCL 필터 설계 방법을 제안한다. 인버터 측 인덕터 전류의 총고조파 왜율($THD_i$)과 필터 커패시터와 계통 측 인덕터 사이의 전류 리플 감쇄율(RAF), 그리고 계통에 주입되는 전류의 총고조파 왜율($THD_g$)의 관계를 분석하여 관계식을 도출하고, 이 관계식을 바탕으로 계통 주입 전류의 $THD_g$ 목표치를 만족하는 $THD_i$와 RAF를 선정하여 계통 측 인덕터($L_g$)와 인버터 측 인덕터($L_i$)의 인덕턴스 값을 계산한다. 한편 커패시터의 커패시턴스 값은 커패시터에 유입되는 무효전력을 고려하여 선정한다. 제안한 방법으로 LCL를 설계하여 시뮬레이션과 실험을 통해 계통에 주입되는 전류의 $THD_g$가 목표치를 만족하는 것을 보임으로써 설계 방법의 타당성을 입증한다.

This paper proposes a new THD reduction algorithm for modular multilevel converters (MMCs) with offset voltage injection operated in nearest level modulation (NLM). High voltage direct current (HVDC) is actively introduced to the grid connection of offshore wind powers, and this paper deals with a voltage generation technique with an MMC for wind power generation. In the proposed method, third harmonic voltage is added for reducing the THD. The third harmonic voltage is adjusted so that each of the pole voltage magnitudes maintains a constant value with a maximum number of (N+1) levels, where N is the number of sub-modules per arm. By using the proposed method, the THD of the output voltage is mitigated without increasing the switching frequency. In addition, the proposed method has advantageous characteristics such as simple implementation. As a part of this study, this paper compares the THD results of the conventional method and the proposed method with offset voltage injection to reduce the THD. In this paper, simulations have been carried out to verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme, and the proposed method is implemented by a HILS (Hardware in the Loop Simulation) system. The obtained results show agreement with the simulation results. It is confirmed that the new scheme achieved the maximum level output voltage and improved the THD quality.

In this paper, we have researched a Automatic Power Factor Correction and THD reduction System for the multiple connection of CFL. Also in this paper, the power factor has been researched for the design of CFL, found the reason why the power factor is low and THD is too high. This paper has designed the PFC System for the multiple connection of CFL, and then we have increased the power factor and reduced the total harmonic distortion, by implementing them.

This paper presents a method to reduce the back-emf THD(Total Harmonic Distortion) for the Concentric winding type Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor(CIPMSM). In the CIPMSM, many design variables and their complicated combinations must be considered to reduce the back-emf THD, but it requires a lot of time and efforts. Therefore, this paper suggests the optimized solution with two simple design parameters using MINITAB software.
