This paper proposes a new power conditioning system for the SMES composed of a thyristor PWM converter with a resonant commutation circuit. The operation of the proposed system and the dynamic interaction between SMES and the power system is analyzed by a theoretical approach with equivalent circuits and verified by computer simulations with EMTP, considering a typical 154kV power system. The proposed system can provide a solution for the power factor regulation and harmonic level reduction in the ac terminal with low-cost system configuration.

The main drawback of parallel type active power filters (APFs) is the large capacity required for harmonic compensation. This paper evaluates the APF capacity requirement for harmonic/reactive power compensation for thyristor converter load. Theoretically achievable maximum power factor under partial load is evaluated. it is shown that the APF capacity can be considerably reduced by deliberately limiting the peak current, while maintaining the filtering performance with an acceptable total harmonic current level. the minimum capacity requirement of APF with current limiting is evaluated as a function of the firing angle of thyristor converter and short circuit ratio(SCR).

We present the first demonstration of the vertical-injection depleted optical thyristor laster diode with InGaAs/InGaAsP multiple quantum well structure. The measured switching voltage and current are 3.36 V and 10 A respectively. The holding voltage and current are respectively 1.37 V, 100 A. The lasing threshold current is 131 mA at 25 C. The output peak wavelength is at 1578 nm at a bias current equal to 1.22 times threshold.

High speed DC circuit breakers (HSCB) are indispensable for protection of DC electric subway substations from fault current. However, the HSCB has mechanical contact to wear, which requires rather frequent maintenance, we have succeeded in developing and manufacturing a GTO DC circuit breaker using GTOs and ZnO varistors. In this paper, we describes the outline of the system itself, its characteristics and test data.

Latching optical switches and optical logic gates AND and OR are demonstrated, for the first time, by the monolithic integration of a vertical cavity lasers with depleted optical thyristor structure, which have not only a low threshold current with 0.65 mA. but also a high on/off contrast ratio more than 50 dB. By simple operating technique with changing a reference switching voltage, this single device operates as two logic functions, optical logic AND and OR. The thyristor laser fabricated using the oxidation process achieved a high optical output power efficiency and a high sensitivity to the optical input light.

A new low cost hybrid active filter for thyristor-controlled rectifier load is presented to overcome the high cost problem of the active or the other hybrid active filters. The proposed hybrid active filter which consists of tuned (5th and 7th harmonics) LC passive filters, power factor improvement(PFI) capacitor bank, and active filter compensates power factor as well as harmonic currents. Since most of harmonic currents are filtered by the passive filter and most of reactive power is compensated by the PFI capacitor bank, the power rating of active filter can be minimized, resulting in cost minimization of the proposed hybrid active filter. A 300kVA hybrid active filter system is implemented and tested using 1MVA thyristor rectifier load to verify the operation and performance.

This paper proposes a new reactive-power compensator composed of a thyristor current-source inverter. The compensator consists of a 6-pulse thyristor bridge, dc reactor, and a commutation circuit. The commutation circuit offers the thyristor bridge to have PWM operation with minimal switching losses. The operation of proposed system was analyzed by computer simulations with EMTP and experimental works with hardware scaled-model. The proposed system would have low cost and easy expansion of operation voltage due to using the conventional thyristors.

본 논문은 새로운 방식의 리셋회로를 적용한 MPC(Magnetic Pulse Compressor)방식의 펄스파워 발생장치에 관한 것이다. 개발된 펄스파워 발생장치는 MPC를 구성하는 코아에 대하여 별도의 리셋회로를 구성할 필요가 없고, 리셋과정은 메인 파워가 전달될 때 이루어지도록 설계되어 있어서 코아의 체적을 최적화하고 시스템을 간단히 구현할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 스위칭 소자로서는 반도체 소자인 싸이리스터만을 채택하여 긴 수명과 높은 신뢰성을 기대할 수 있게 하였고, DSP를 이용한 Controller를 구현하여 출력전압의 크기와 주파수 변경을 가능하도록 하였다.

Many semiconductive switches are operated in series for high voltage operation. The same number of gate drivers are needed to control all the switches, hence, the drivers cause high cost and system complexity. In this study, a simple and low cost gate driver for high voltage thyristor-diode switches is investigated. This gate driver can operate several high voltage thyristor-diode switches at the same time.

In this days, heat pipe heat sink has been widely applied to power controllers for railway substations to remove heat from power semiconductors(diodes or thyristors). The heat pipe heat sink consists of a aluminum heating block for mounting the thyristor, 2~3 heat pipes and large number of aluminum fins. The present study was to get fundamental informations of the structure, design parameters and heat transfer performances of heat pipe heat sink. Series of operational test for a unit with 3 heat pipes were performed and its heat flow circuit was analysed from the experimentally obtained data on wall temperature distribution. Total resistance was ranged 0.02~$0.03^{\circ}C$/W for a power range from 40W to400W. The time to get the steady state was approximately longer than 20 minutes, and overshooting was not occurred during start up operation.
