The common drive method of the single phase induction motor(SPIM) is to install a start capacitor and a centrifugal switch in series with the auxiliary winding. In this paper, the phase angle voltage sequence controller is proposed to eliminate a start capacitor and a centrifugal switch of SPIM. In comparison with the capacitor start system of SPIM, the proposed control system shows that it contributes to saving the starting current about 57% and to improving of the starting efficiency of SPIM. The proposed starting characteristics of the SPIM is obtained with this strategy through simulation and experimental results.

This research used triac that is semi-conductor that act to static contact to overcome happened shortcoming been using mechanical centrifugal force switch usually Detect starting current of single phase induction motor and decided moving time. Therefore, could improve life of switch semipermanently. Also, wish to reduced impact that electric motor suffers at the starting moment and do stable starting which there is no life improvement and noise of electric motor itself, arc.

A Single phase induction motor is the predominant fractional horsepower power rated, extensively used in domestic and industrial application. For example, these motors provide the motive power to washing machines, fans, refrigerators, etc. In this paper, single phase induction motor input current was detected by a small current transformer and determined TRIAC gate signal by using op-amp analog circuit. The soft-start strategy is based on limited auxiliary current angle during starting period in the closed-loop control. The Simulation and experimental result show the motor's starting characteristics of the proposal starting system and are compared with centrifugal switch starting motor.

Conventional shrink-fit tool holders have positive features, such as high accuracy, high strength, high stiffness and low sensitivity to centrifugal forces, but they require heavy investments for heating and cooling equipment. Generally the heating equipment has to heat the tool holder up to $200{\sim}300^{\circ}C$ for tool changes. This paper introduces a novel shrink-fit tool holder that is able to unclamp a tool at $40{\sim}50^{\circ}C$. This feature makes it possible to switch between the clamped and unclamped states by using a simple device, which has lower power, smaller size and lower cost than the heating equipment of the conventional shrink-fit tool holders. The proposed shrink-fit tool holder is able to expand its tool hole by using the shape memory alloys which are integrated in the tool holder body. Performances of the SMA shrink-fit tool holder were evaluated experimentally. The experimental results confirm that the proposed tool holder is feasible in aspects of clamping/unclamping operations, clamping force and repeatability of tool setup.

Selection of a suitable artificial lift is important in terms of efficient operation and economics for oil production. In general, process of well design includes the selection of artificial lift, but the oil recovery could be enhanced by use of hybrid system combined with two types of artificial lift method according to reservoir condition for oil production. Electric submersible pump (ESP), as a presentative artificial lift method, is a manner for supplying the pressure in the lower part of oil well by using of a multi-stage centrifugal pump with an electric energy. However, there is a disadvantage that has a limit to the application period because of mechanical defection on ESP. Accordingly, it is possible to reduce the shutdown time of production well by applying the ESP/Gas lift hybrid system, which is to switch to a gas lift when an ESP is defective. This study describes the effect of ESP/gas lift hybrid system compared with ESP method for a onshore horizontal well locating in the of Permian basin, USA. As a result of study, ESP/gas lift hybrid system could make more effective productivity than ESP method. Also, we quantitatively predicted how much economic benefit would be obtained when the hybrid system was applied in the production well.
