Nowadays electromagnetic contactors are used for power on-off in various electrical loads. If the severe arc are occurred when power off, the magnetic contactor can not long run because of damage of contactor. In this paper, Authors indicate a method of how to minimize the arc when power off, Authors contrived a electronic circuit which can adjust the demagnetizing point of electro magnetic contactor, and control the demagnetizing point, utilizing our circuit, so as to occur the extinguish of arc at near the AC current zero point which is indispensibly exists. From the results of study, Authors could get confirmations the AC circuit could cut off with occurrence of mininum arc, and that possibility of extensive utilization of our method to hightension circuit.

In this paper, we analyze control methods and structures of AC arc-welders, which is a prerequisite to develop a low-cost and high accurate welder. By using the finite element methods, three types of AC an-welders, movable-core, movable-coil, and saturated-reactor type, are modeled and characterized in the coupled domain of electro-magnetic system.

AC(alternating current) CB(circuit breaker) at the fault occurred in the existing AC distribution system is limiting the fault current through zero cross-point. However, DC(direct current) CB does not have zero cross-point. Therefore, arc occurred by on-off operation of DC CB is very huge. Nowadays, many research team are studying the way to decrease breaking time, which is one of the essential conditions in DC CB. We suggested novel arc-induction type DC CB in this paper. The proposed arc-induction type DC CB is composed of the mechanical Arc ring and DC CB. We confirmed the operation of arc-induction type DC CB through the HFSS(High Frequency Structure Simulator) 3D simulation program and performed the experiment for operation characteristics. Results showed that arcing time of the arc-induction type DC CB by using induction ring was faster than existing mechanical DC CB. On the transient system, we confirmed stable operation characteristics of the arc-induction type DC CB through the simulation and experimental results. We expect that the proposed arc-induction type DC CB technology is will go to stay ahead of the existing DC CB technology.

In this work, we report basic performance test results of a lab-scale three phase alternative current (AC) arc plasma torch system for plasma gas reforming applications. The suggested system primarily consists of three graphite electrodes inclined at 12.5° to the central axis, a 𝞥 150 mm cylindrical gas path and a three phase-60 Hz AC power supply. At air flow rate of 50 Lpm and arc currents of 100-175 A, test results revealed that plasma resistances were decreasing from 1.08 Ω to 0.53 Ω with the increase of plasma power from 9.3 kW to 13.8 kW, causing the decrease of power factor and increase of the line voltages. However, the injected air can be heated quickly up to the temperatures of >1,200℃ when injecting AC arc plasma powers of >10 kW.

최근 에너지 절감과 환경개선 문제가 대두되면서 아크용접에서도 깨끗하고 불량률이 낮은 아크용접기기의 개발을 본격적으로 추진하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 알루미늄 등과 같은 비철금속에 주로 적용되는 MIG 아크용접에서의 용접성능을 개선하고자 한다. 기존의 직류펄스 MIG 아크용접은 박판 금속에 용접을 하는 경우 아크전압이 낮아 단락이 빈번하게 발생하고 용접 불량을 일으킨다. 이를 개선하기 위하여 중첩교류 펄스를 적용한 MIG 아크용접방법을 제안하고 중첩교류펄스의 설계와 실험을 통하여 그 타당성을 검증하였다.

This paper analyses current densities induced inside a worker using AC arc welder when he wear a protective with double shielding cloth. Applying the boundary element method, we calculate current densities induced in organs inside a worker in case he was located at 1[cm] far from a power cable of AC arc welder. As results of study, we fined aa protective cloth, which has high permeability in inner layer and high conductivity in outer layer, can give a higher shielding efficiency.

This paper analyses current densities induced inside a worker using AC arc welder when he wears a protective cloth. Applying the boundary element method, we calculate current densities induced in organs inside a worker in case he was located at 1[cm], 15[cm], 20[cm] far from a power cable of AC arc welder. As results of study, we find a maximum current density induced in all organs may be lower than 10[$mA/cm^2$] if he wears a protective cloth. We also know high permeability materials can lower current density more than high conductivity materials.

Power cable of an AC arc welder can surround a body of worker at the moment of welding. Applying the boundary element method, we calculated current densities induced in organs inside a worker to study the magnetic field reduction characteristics of shielding wear materials. We knew shielding wear with high permeability materials lowers current density more than high conductivity materials. We also found current density was lowest when high permeability materials were inside high conductivity materials in double layer shielding wear.

In this paper, we proposed AC/DC boost converter to improve input current harmonic reduction in SMAW(shielded metal-arc welding). The proposed harmonic reduction with the boost converter design and the UC2854 integrated circuit which controls the converter, The topology of welding power supply is made of a pair of boost converter and welder half-bridge IGBT inverter. The voltage arc is modeled by a variable resistance in series with a voltage source. The results has been confirmed by PSIM simulation tool. The simulation results show that input at current is nearly sinusoidal with low harmonic contents and sinusoidal input current waveform at high power factor.
