The stationary discontinuous armatures that are used in permanent magnet linear synchronous motors (PM-LSMs) have been proposed as a driving source for transportation systems. However, the stationary discontinuous armature PM-LSM contains the outlet edges which always exist as a result of the discontinuous arrangement of the armature. For this reason, the outlet edge cogging force generated between the armature's core and the mover's permanent magnet. This paper contemplated the outlet cogging for ceaccording to 2-D numerical analysis by FEM. We installed the auxiliary pole for in order to minimize the outlet cogging force.

In this paper, a new Three-Phase Lead-Lag Random Pulse Position PWM(LL-RPWM) scheme is proposed and implemented for decreasing audible acoustic noise of motor drives. In the proposed RPWM(Random PWM), each of three phase pulses is located randomly in each switching interval. Based on the space vector modulation technique, the duty ratio of the pulses is calculated. Along with the randomization of the PWM pulses, we can obtain the effects of spread spectra of voltage, current as in the case of randomly changed switching frequency. To verify the validity of the proposed LL-RPWM, the simulation and experimental study was tried. Along with the randomization PWM pulses, the space vector modulation is also executed in the C167 micro-controller. The simulation and experimental results show that the voltage and current harmonics are spread to a wide band area and that the audible acoustic noise is reduced by the proposed RPWM method.

In this paper, we control attitude of an unstructured object with gyro actuator. It is well known that the attitude control of an object hanging with wire is not easy using usual actuators. Even though an actuator such as a fan can be used for control of the object, it is difficult to meet a desired control objectives. We, because of these reasons, make a gyro actuator with two motors. The first motor is responsible for spinning the wheel at high speed and the second motor is used to turn the inner gimbal. Applying the torque to the second motor, which results in the turn of the outer gimbal, torque about the vertical axis will be obtained while the wheel of the gyro is spinning constantly. This torque is used to control the attitude of the object attached. Gyro actuator utilize control unstructured object such as I-beam carrying by tower crane, and isolate construction workers from the dangerous environments. We derive a relationship of wheel and its motor, find a proper capacity of wheel motor in order to rotate a wheel. Through experiments of attitude control, we show to obtain desired control objectives.

In this paper, we proposed a new method detecting actions of some components driven by the coil excitation. Nuclear power reactors are typically controlled by the movement of several neutron-absorbing control rods into or out of the reactor core. For moving control rods, we use an electromagnetic-jack-typed mechanism, which is called Control Rod Drive Mechanism. This mechanism moves control rods by the step composed of sequential actions of components. In case any mechanical problems happen in the mechanism, the orders for the control rod movement from the higher system cannot be performed properly. This abnormal state must be monitored and the sequential actions of the components can be the monitoring target. The actions of components generate some deviations in the profiles of the currents flowing into the coils in the mechanism. We focused on this phenomena and devised a new method of detecting the actions of the components in Control Rod Drive Mechanism by using the wavelet transform for observing the current profile.

In this paper, we describe a DSP-based test apparatus for Control Element Drive Mechanism (CEDM). Using this apparatus, we can catch the mechanical and electrical characteristics of CEDM and obtain the information about the improvement of CEDM and the design of CEDM power controller. The test apparatus for CEDM introduced in this paper can input firing angles directly into gate drive circuits of thyristors so that this method can be used to derive the maximum and minimum values of firing angles within available limits for a 3-phase half-wave rectifier. Angle inputs help us understand each coil's response characteristics. Since this apparatus generates a serial sequence for CEDM insertion and withdrawal operations, we may judge whether CEDM works correctly as expected or not in each phase of a step movement.

우리의 일상 생활에 있어 가정용 전기기기는 우리 삶의 일부분이라고 말할 수 있을 정도로 그 존재 가치가 절대적이다. 최근 반도체 기술의 발달은 이러한 기기의 제어를 기계적인 방법에서 digital 방식의 전자자적인 방법으로 바꾸어 놓고 있다. 이러한 전자적인 제어장치를 갖는 기기로 의 발전은 사용상의 편리함을 갖고 있는 반면 EMC(Electromagnetic Compactibility)부분에 취약한 단점을 가지고 있다. 특히 가정용 전기기기는 물론이고 전동공구류 또한 일반 가정에서 쉽게 사용 될 수 있는 기기이므로 전자파장해에 대한 문제는 기기의 오동작 문제를 떠나 사용자 신체의 손상 등 위해를 가할수 있는 가능성을 항상 갖고 있다. 가정용 전기기기 및 전동 공구류에 대한 EMC문 제는 장착된 Micro-Processor 구동을 위한 clock 신호, 모터 등 회전기 부분에서 발생하는 불연속 적인 전자파 noise, 전원선에서 발생하는 전도성 noise와 방사성 noise가 그 원인이 되고 있으며 이러한 전자파 noise는 주변에서 동작하고 있는 다른 기기의 동작을 방해하고 또한 주변에서 동작 하고 있는 다른 기기로부터의 전자파 noise에 의해 자신이 영향을 받아 불필요한 오동작을 유발하 기도 한다. 여기에서는 EMI 부분의 경우 금번 고시 내용과 기존의 전기용품 안전관리법의 내용을 비교하였 으며, EMS 부분은 가정용 전기기기 뿐만아니라 고시된 해당 제품 모두를 비교하여 관련 제조업체 및 관계자에게 도움이 되도록 하였다.

The development of a tilting train with construction of electric line on the conventional railway is required for speed-up on the conventional railway with many curving sections. For development of tilting train, the study and development of the tilting system and tilting bogie having the different mechanism with a general high speed train will play a main role for improving the technology in the field of Korean railway The study and development of the pantograph tilting mechanism in order to keep a good contact behavior between a pantograph and a contact wire by tilting a pantograph on the opposite direction of the vehicle tilting direction. In this study, we analyzed the aerodynamic characteristic of a developing pantograph on the tilting train and obtained the contact force with catenary by aerodynamic lift force by the aerodynamic analysis. We also performed the numerical analysis for design the device controlling lift force on a pantograph. From the aerodynamic simulation and parameter study for a device to control the lift force, we will suggest the various shape and the optimal shape of it corresponding to a developing tilting pantograph. The Fluent software is used for the calculation of flow profile in this study.

A numerical investigation is conducted to search for the optimal flow rate for a rotating-disk chemical vapor decomposition reactor operating at a high temperature and a low pressure. The flow of a gas mixture supplied into the reactor is modeled by a laminar flow of an ideal gas obeying the kinetic theory. The axisymmetric two-dimensional flow in the reactor is simulated by employing a CFD package FLUENT. With operating pressure and temperature fixed, numerical computations are performed by varying rotation rate and flow rate. Examination of the structures of flow and thermal fields leads to a flow regime diagram illustrating that there are a stable plug-like flow regime and a few unfavorable flow regimes induced by mass unbalance or buoyancy. The criterion for sustaining a plug-like flow regime is discussed based on a theoretical scaling argument. Interpretation of the flow regime map suggests that a favorable flow is attainable with a minimum flow rate at the smallest rotation rate guaranteeing the dominance of rotation effects over buoyancy.
