The conventional battery charger requires two separate voltage and current compensators to achieve constant current and constant-current-charging profile. This compensator configuration leads to an inevitable transient response during the mode change between the constant current and the constant voltage operation. Futhermore, a tedious and complicated design process is required to consider a widely changing battery voltage and the nonlinear electrical properties of Li-ion battery. This study proposes a single integrated voltage-current compensator of the LLC resonant converter for Li-ion battery charger applications to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks. The proposed compensator is designed to provide a smooth and reliable performance during the entire charging process while providing the reduced design efforts and seamless mode transient response. Several experimental results based on a 300 W prototype converter and its theoretical analysis are provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed compensator.

In this study, we examined the charging behavior of chopped carbon fibers during electro-flocking process, which is one of the key processes of the novel technique for fabricating conductive polymer composite films. Short carbon fibers (CF) during electroflocking were electrically charged by the combined effect of contact charging, corona charging and tribocharging. The specific charge built on CF surface was measured by using Faraday cup method. Specific charge increased not only with increasing electric field strength and potential impressed to mesh electrode as expected from theoretical considerations in literature, but with decreasing mesh opening size due to the improved contact charging condition. However, CF length was found unexpectedly to influence the amount of CF specific charge due to the agglomerated nature of CF flocks leading to the change in charging conditions.

In this paper, we propose a smartphone application based on a wireless fidelity(WiFi) in order to control the charging of electric vehicle(EV) and monitor the charging status together with the vehicle history information. The driver obtains much information on vehicle status through a smartphone application which communicates with the electric vehicle supply equipment(EVSE) management server while the EV also communicates with the EVSE for the authentification through controller area network(CAN). We also implement the simulator for the EV charging control system to verify the functions of the proposed application where the simulator consists of an EV model, an EVSE, and a smartphone. It is shown by the simulator that the proposed smartphone application allows the driver to control and to monitor the charging process of an EV conveniently and, moreover, it can provide the driver with vehicle information stored in the EVSE management server.

This study describes a hydrogen embrittlement evaluation of the subsurface zone in 590DP steel by micro-Vickers hardness measurement. The 590DP steel was designed to use in high-strength thin steel sheets as automotive materials. The test specimens were fabricated to 5 series varying the chemical composition through the process of casting and rolling. Electrochemical hydrogen charging was conducted on each specimen with varying current densities and charging times. The relationship between the embrittlement and hydrogen charging conditions was established by investigating the metallography. The micro-Vickers hardness was measured to evaluate the hydrogen embrittlement of the subsurface zone in addition to the microscopic investigation. The micro-Vickers hardness increased with the charging time at the surface. However, the changing ratio and maximum variation of hardness with depth were nearly the same value for each test specimen under the current density of 150 mA/$cm^2$ and charging time of 50 hours. Consequently, it appears that hydrogen embrittlement in 590DP steel can be evaluated by micro-Vickers hardness measurement.

In this paper, the preparation of lead zirconium titanate(PZT) thin film by sol-gel processing was descried. Thin film coated with thickness of 4${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ on the stainless steel substrates using the multiple spin-coating process. The crystalline phases of PZT powder and film were investigated by X-ray diffraction pattern and PZT thin film has perovskite structure over 600 C annealing temperature. Corona charging characteristics of the ferroelectric PZT thin film at 600 C were investigated by electrophotographic measurement. A difference in the charging characteristics between positive and negative corona charging was found. The charge acceptance depended in the polarity of corona and the poling of film. According to the D-E hysteresis measurment, PZT thin film can be poled by corona charging without use of top electrode. The remnant polarization in the PZT thin film is generally in the order of 48$\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$. From this results, the ferroelectric PZT thin film will be possible to apply for the add-on type imaging formation.

산업현장에서 중대산업사고를 예방하기 위해서는 원천적으로 위험물질의 사용을 금지하고 안전이 확보된 대체물질을 사용하는 것이 최상의 안전을 확보하는 방법이다. 그러나 대체물질의 비효율적인 경제성과 생산기술의 부재로 인해 위험물질을 취급할 수밖에 없는 상황이라면 사고가 발생하지 않도록 예방을 철저하게 하는 것이 차선의 안전대책이라 하겠다. 이에 본 연구는 최근 연속적인 누출사고로 인해 위험성이 대두 되었음에도 산업현장에서 사용 및 취급될 수밖에 없는 HF에 대해 누출사고가 발생함과 동시에 향후에도 누출사고 가능성이 높은 HF 충진공정의 위험성 평가시 사고결과 영향분석과 비상조치계획 수립에 효율적으로 활용 할 수 있는 사고 시나리오를 발굴 및 선정하였다.

In this paper, a zero torque control scheme adopting current sharing function (CSF) used in integrated Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) drive with DC battery charger is proposed. The proposed control scheme is able to achieve the keeping position (KP), zero torque (ZT) and power factor correction (PFC) at the same time with a simple novel current sharing function algorithm. The proposed CSF makes the proper reference for each phase windings of SRM to satisfy the total charging current of the battery with zero torque output to hold still position with power factor correction, and the copper loss minimization during of battery charging is also achieved during this process. Based on these, CSFs can be used without any recalculation of the optimal current at every sampling time. In this proposed integrated battery charger system, the cost effective, volume and weight reduction and power enlargement is realized by function multiplexing of the motor winding and asymmetric SR converter. By using the phase winding as large inductors for charging process, and taking the asymmetric SR converter as an interleaved converter with boost mode operation, the EV can be charged effectively and successfully with minimum integral system. In this integral system, there is a position sliding mode controller used to overcome any uncertainty such as mutual inductance or DC offset current sensor. Power factor correction and voltage adaption are obtained with three-phase buck type converter (or current source rectifier) that is cascaded with conventional SRM, one for wide input and output voltage range. The practicability is validated by the simulation and experimental results by using a laboratory 3-hp SRM setup based on TI TMS320F28335 platform.

본 논문은 최근 북미 지역을 중심으로 상용화에 대한 기대가 높아지고 있는 플러그인 하이브리드 전기자동차가 배터리의 충전을 위해 전기에너지 배전망에 직접 접속될 때 나타날 수 있는 설비의 과부하 및 전압문제 등에 대한 평가방법을 제안하고 실제 계통에 대한 평가결과를 분석한다. 플러그인 하이브리드 전기자동차가 일반 가정에서 충전되기 시작할 경우 전기에너지 배전계통은 가정에서 사용되어 오던 기존의 전기제품보다 훨씬 많은 전력을 소모하는 새로운 부하에 전력을 공급하게 되는 만큼 이를 배전계통의 설비계획에 반영하기 위한 모델링과 절차가 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 미국 전력연구소에서 북미지역의 전력회사들과 함께 수행하고 있는 관련 연구 과제를 소개하며 OpenDSS 프로그램을 통해 배전계통과 플러그인 전기자동차의 충전부하를 모델링하고 충전시각과 전기자동차 배터리 형태에 따른 다양한 시나리오를 적용하여 배전계통에 대한 플러그인 전기자동차 충전부하의 영향을 분석한다.
