Abstract: An embodiment provides a DC-DC converter for sensing a grounded state and a method for controlling same in a photovoltaic energy storage system. Specifically, the converter can sense a grounded state on the basis of the magnitude of voltage applied to a resistor and provide a notification.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a DC-DC converter for compensating a ripple in a photovoltaic-linked energy storage system and a control method thereof are disclosed. Particularly, a DC-DC converter for compensating for a ripple generated in a DC link connecting a single-phase inverter to a converter is disclosed. The DC-DC converter can compensate a ripple by using an active power component or the average voltage of a DC link voltage acquired from the DC link.

Abstract: A hollow actuator-driven droplet dispensing apparatus may include an elastic tube having an elastic body, defining a storage space therein, and extending a predetermined length, and a hollow actuator fitted around the elastic tube so as to generate a force and a displacement in the longitudinal direction when an electric field is applied. The hollow actuator is expanded or contracted in the longitudinal direction of the elastic tube when the external voltage is applied, thereby reducing or enlarging the volume of an inner space of the elastic tube. The droplet dispensing apparatus can press the elastic tube to expand or contract the volume of the inner space of the tube using the hollow actuator capable of quickly generating a displacement in response to an application voltage so that a fixed amount of content can be discharged out and taken into the tube.
