When induction motor is driven with a load commutated inverter, the output part of the inverter must be capacitive. But, in order to be a good load commutation at the low speed range, very large capacitor or force commutated circuit must be used regarding the capacity of motor. This paper proposed the force commutated circuit for driving the motor in case of the installation of capacitor which can be capable of load commutation at the rating speed. The force commutated circuit is operated by the LC resonant circuit, auxiliary source and SCR, and also composed of the commutation circuit which control the interval of the inverse voltage across the inverter.

This paper presents the two lossless auxiliary inductors-assisted voltage source type half bridge (single ended push pull: SEPP) series resonant high frequency inverter for induction heated fixing roller in copy and printing machines. The simple high-frequency inverter treated here can completely achieve stable zero current soft switching (ZCS) commutation for wide its output power regulation ranges and load variations under its constant high frequency pulse density modulation (PDM) scheme. Its transient and steady state operating principle is originally described and discussed for a constant high-frequency PDM control strategy under a stable ZCS operation commutation, together with its output effective power regulation characteristics-based on the high frequency PDM strategy. The experimental operating performances of this voltage source SEPP ZCS-PDM series resonant high frequency inverter using IGBTs are illustrated as compared with computer simulation results and experimental ones. Its power losses analysis and actual efficiency are evaluated and discussed on the basis of simulation and experimental results. The feasible effectiveness of this high frequency inverter appliance implemented here is proved from the practical point of view.

This paper proposes a practical sliding-mode controller design for shaping the impedances of cascaded boost-converter power decoupling circuits for reducing the second order harmonic ripple in photovoltaic (PV) current. The cascaded double-boost converter, when used as power decoupling circuit, has some advantages in terms of a high step-up voltage-ratio, a small number of switches and a better efficiency when compared to conventional topologies. From these features, it can be seen that this topology is suitable for residential (PV) rooftop systems. However, a robust controller design capable of rejecting double frequency inverter ripple from passing to the (PV) source is a challenge. The design constraints are related to the principle of the impedance-shaping technique to maximize the output impedance of the input-side boost converter, to block the double frequency PV current ripple component, and to prevent it from passing to the source without degrading the system dynamic responses. The design has a small recovery time in the presence of transients with a low overshoot or undershoot. Moreover, the proposed controller ensures that the ripple component swings freely within a voltage-gap between the (PV) and the DC-link voltages by the small capacitance of the auxiliary DC-link for electrolytic-capacitor elimination. The second boost controls the main DC-link voltage tightly within a satisfactory ripple range. The inverter controller performs maximum power point tracking (MPPT) for the input voltage source using ripple correlation control (RCC). The robustness of the proposed control was verified by varying system parameters under different load conditions. Finally, the proposed controller was verified by simulation and experimental results.

A new phase-shifted parallel-input/series-output (PI SO) dual inductor-fed push-pull converter for high-power step­up applications is proposed. This converter is operated at a constant duty cycle and employs an auxiliary circuit to control the output voltage with a phase-shift between the two modules. It features a voltage conversion characteristic which is linear to changes in the control input, and high step-up ratio with a greatly reduced switch turn-off stress resulting in a significant increase in the converter efficiency. It also shows a low ripple content and low root-mean-square (RMS) current in the output capacitor. The operational principle is analyzed and a comparative analysis with the conventional pulse-width-modulated (PWM) PISO dual inductor-fed push-pull converter is presented. A 50kHz, 800W, 350Vdc prototype with an input of 20-32Vdc has also been constructed to validate the proposed converter. The proposed converter compares favorably with the conventional counterpart and is considered well suited to high-power step-up applications.

The ultracapacitor module has recently been recast for use in hybrid energy storage systems (HESSs). As a result, accurate state-of-charge (SOC) estimation for an ultracapacitor module is as important as that of primary sources in order to be utilized efficiently in an energy storage system (ESS). However, while SOC estimation via the open-circuit voltage (OCV) method is generally used due to its linear characteristics compared with other ESSs, this method results in many errors in cases of highcurrent charging/discharging within a short time period. Accordingly, this paper introduces a dynamic SOC estimation algorithm that is capable of SOC compensation of an ultracapacitor module even when there is a current input and output. A cycle profile that simulates the operating conditions of a mild-HEV was applied to a vehicle simulator to verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

The purpose of this study was to investigate impact of wearing low-level current wrist guards on pain scale, range of motion (ROM), and muscle strength in elderly women with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS). Subjects were 12 elderly women aged between 65 and 85 years who were diagnosed with CTS symptoms. Measurements included grip strength and wrist ROM. Wrist ROM was assessed through flexion and dorsiflexion. Wrist guards were worn. After two weeks, pain level was assessed using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Results showed a significant reduction in VAS score in the MES group after stimulation, whereas there was no difference in the control group. However, there was no significant difference in ROM between the MES group and the control group. Grip strength increased in the MES group after two weeks (p ≤ 0.001). In conclusion, clinical trials suggest that MES wrist guards might be provided as an adjunctive treatment method for CTS patients. This study provides foundational data for the design and use of auxiliary devices such as gloves in the field of MES research for pain reduction, ROM improvement, and muscle strength enhancement resulting from CTS.

본 논문에서는 1차측 환류 다이오드를 제거한 ZVZCS(영전압 영전류 스위칭) Three Level DC/DC 컨버터에 관하여 논하였다. 제안된 컨버터는 1차측 회로를 Three Level 결선하고, 여기에 위상이동 스위칭 방법을 이용하여, 스위치 전압 스트레스를 저감시킬 수 있으므로, 기존의 Full-Bridge 컨버터에 비하여 스위칭 손실이 적고, 고전압 응용 분야에 적합하다. 기존의 경우 2차측에 한 개의 커패시터와 두 개의 다이오드를 이용한 보조회로를 부가하여, 누설 인덕터와 2차측 보조 커패시터를 이용하여 공진을 일으킴으로써 주 스위치의 영전압 영전류 스위칭(ZVZCS)이 가능하였다. 그러나 새로운 컨버터는 기존의 보조 회로에 결합 인덕터를 추가함으로써, 누설 인덕터, 2차측 보조 커패시터, 2차측 결합 인덕터가 공진을 일으키므로 기존의 경우보다 도전 손실이 저감된 고효율 컨버터를 구현할 수 있다. 또한 1차측 순환 전류의 현저한 감소로 환류 손실이 작아지며, 1차측에 환류 다이오드를 제거한 경제적인 Three Level 컨버터를 구현하였다. 본 논문에서는 제안된 컨버터의 동작원리, 해석 및 특성에 대해서 논하였으며, IGBT를 사용하여 1[㎾］급 시작품을 제작, 50［KHz］에서 실험하였다.

태양광 발전 시스템을 위한 무접점 변압기 적용 고효율 Full-bridge LLC 공진컨버터를 제안하였다. 제안된 LLC 공진컨버터는 직렬 커패시터와의 직렬공진을 위해 무접점 변압기의 누설인덕턴스와 자화인덕턴스를 이용하였다. 제안된 LLC 공진컨버터는 공진주파수 보다 높은 스위칭영역에서 연속 공진전류로 동작하는 기존 직렬공진 컨버터와는 달리 공진주파수 아래의 좁은 주파수 범위에서 불연속 공진전류로 동작한다. 이러한 불연속모드 공진전류 때문에 제안된 컨버터는 어떤 보조회로 없이 무접점 변압기 1차측 주스위칭 소자의 영 전압 스위칭(ZVS)과 2차측 다이오드의 영 전류 스위칭(ZCS)을 얻을 수 있고, 높은 전압이득특성을 갖는다. 본 논문에서는 무접점 변압기 적용 Full-bridge LLC 공진컨버터를 이용한 무접점 전원장치에 대한 이론적 해석 및 시뮬레이션을 통해 150W급 시제품을 제작하여 태양광 발전 전원시스템에 적용 실험한 결과를 서술했다.
