In south korea, the government make a plan to generate the 20% of the total electrical power as renewable source like wind generation and solar generation. This plan will accelerate the increase of fault current with power industry's growth. As the increase of fault current, the superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) has been studied. In case that the SFCL is applied in power system, it can cause the overcurrent relay (OCR)'s trip delay because of the reduced fault current. In this paper, the overcurrent relay with voltage component was suggested to improve the OCR's trip delay caused by the SFCL and compensational constant was introduced to have the trip time similar to the trip time of case without the SFCL. For conforming the effect of the suggested OCR with voltage component, the PSCAD/EMTDC simulation modeling and analysis were conducted. Through the simulation, it was conformed that the trip delay could be improved by using the suggested OCR and compensational constant.

The transient magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) generalized Couette flow with heat transfer through a porous medium of an electrically conducting, viscous, incompressible fluid bounded by two parallel insulating porous plates is studied in the presence of uniform suction and injection and a heat source considering the Hall effect. A uniform and constant pressure gradient is imposed in the axial direction and an externally applied uniform magnetic field as well as a uniform suction and injection are applied in the direction perpendicular to the plates. The two plates are kept at different but constant temperatures while the Joule and viscous dissipations are included in the energy equation. The effect of the Hall current, the porosity of the medium and the uniform suction and injection on both the velocity and temperature distributions is investigated.

This paper deals with a novel solid state controller (NSSC) for an isolated asynchronous generator (IAG) feeding 3-phase 4-wire loads driven by constant power prime movers, such as uncontrolled pico hydro turbines. AC capacitor banks are used to meet the reactive power requirement of the asynchronous generator. The proposed NSSC is realized using a set of IGBTs (Insulated gate bipolar junction transistors) based current controlled 2-leg voltage source converters (CC- VSC) and a DC chopper at its DC bus, which keeps the generated voltage and frequency constant in spite of changes in consumer loads. The neutral point of the load is created using aT-configuration of the transformers. The IAG system is modeled in MATLAB along with Simulink and PSB (power system block set) toolboxes. The simulated results are presented to demonstrate the capability of the isolated generating system consisting of NSSC and IAG driven by uncontrolled pico hydro turbine and feeding 3-phase 4-wire loads.

This research comparatively studies three kinds of flux regulation methods, namely, stored capacitor discharge pulse (SCDP), constant current source pulse (CCSP), and quantitative flux regulation pulse (QFRP), which are used for hybrid permanent magnet (PM) axial field flux-switching memory machines (HPM-AFFSMMs). Through an analysis of the operation principle and the series hybrid PM flux regulation mechanism of the objective machine, the circuit topologies and flux regulation process of these flux regulation methods are addressed in detail. On the basis of a simulation, the flux regulation characteristics of the researched machine during the magnetization and demagnetization processes are comparatively evaluated. Then, machine performance, including back EMF, direct and quadrature axis inductances, and magnetization and demagnetization characteristics, is quantitatively investigated. Results show that the QFRP enables the HPM-AFFSMM to achieve a less harmonic component of back EMF by approximately 7.28% and 7.97% at the magnetization and demagnetization states, respectively, and a more complete magnetization process than the SCDP and CCSP.

Random Telegraph Signal(RTS)에 의한 1/f 잡음이 CMOS Ring Oscillator의 Phase Noise와 Jitter에 미치는 영향을 조사한다. 7단 Ring Oscillator의 각 노드에 병렬 연결된 10개의 Piece-Wise-Linear 전류원이 RTS 신호를 모델링 한다. RTS 전류원의 진폭과 Time Constant를 변화시키면서 Ring Oscillator 출력의 FFT 및 전력 스팩트럼 밀도, Jitter를 관찰한다. RTS 전류원의 진폭은 Phase Noise의 폭을 증가시키고 결과적으로 Jitter의 크기도 증가 시키는 것이 확인 되었다. 그리고 RTS Time Constant가 짧아질수록 출력 신호의 FFT peak의 폭이 커지고 Cycle to Cycle Jitter 값이 증가하였다.

밝기가 동작 전류에 비례하는 LED 조명은 다수의 LED를 직렬 연결하여 정전류원으로 구동하는 방식을 널리 사용하고 있다. 이러한 방식에서는 일부 LED가 고장으로 개방되면 전류 통로가 끊어져 직렬 연결된 모든 LED가 꺼지게 된다. 본 논문에서는 LED 동작 전압보다 약 0.4V 정도 높은 항복전압을 갖는 제너 다이오드를 개별 LED와 병렬로 연결하여 LED 고장 시 전류 우회로를 확보하므로 이러한 문제점을 해결하는 회로를 설계하였다. 시뮬레이션과 실험을 통해 LED 정상 동작 시에는 제너 다이오드로 전류가 거의 흐리지 않고, LED 고장 시에는 제너 다이오드가 안정적으로 전류 우회로로 동작함을 확인하였다.

High-speed traction has voltage source variation because the electric power of tractions is supplied by difference traction power system according to operating section. This paper proposes the robust control maintaining constant output performance against voltage source variation for PWM converters of the high speed traction. The proposed scheme consists of feed-forward compensation for current controller by on-line calculating the rms voltage of voltage source. Total dynamic performance of high speed traction can be improved by the reduction of the output voltage ripple which is resulted from voltage source sag and variation. The superior performance and validity of the proposed scheme is proved through the simulation.

When the focusing lens was installed onto the ion beam source, the spreadness diameter of ion beam was about 10mm.

Air-cooling method is adopted on the basis of the requirements for the thermal stability and convenient field use of an electrical source transmitter. The power losses of the transmitter are determined after calculating the losses of the alternating current (AC)-direct current (DC) power supply, the constant-current circuit, and the output circuit. According to the analysis of the characteristics of a heat sink with striped fins and a fan, the engineering calculation expression of the Nusselt number and the design process for air-cooled dissipation are proposed. Experimental results verify that the error between calculated and measured values of the transmitter losses is 12.2%, which meets the error design requirements of less than 25%. Steady-state average temperature rise of the heat sink of the AC-DC power supply is $22^{\circ}C$, which meets the design requirements of a temperature rise between $20^{\circ}C$ and $40^{\circ}C$. The transmitter has favorable thermal stability with 40 kW output power.

인체내부의 각 조직은 서로 다른 저항률(resistivity)분포를 가지며, 조직의 생리학적, 기능적 변화에 따라 임피던스가 변화한다. 본 논문에서는 주로 기능적 영상을 위한 임피던스 단층촬영 (EIT, electrical impedance tomography) 시스템의 설계와 구현 결과를 기술한다. EIT 시스템은 인체의 표면에 부착한 전극을 통해 전류를 주입하고 이로 인해 유기되는 전압을 측정하여, 내부 임피던스의 단층영상을 복원하는 기술이다. EIT 시스템의 개발에 있어서는 영상복원의 난해함과 아울러 측정시스템의 낮은 정확도가 기술적인 문제가 되고 있다. 본 논문은 기존 EIT 시스템의 문제점을 파악하고 디지털 기술을 이용하여 보다 정확도가 높고 안정된 시스템을 설계 및 제작하였다. 크기와 주파수 및 파형의 변화 가능한 50KHz의 정현파 전류를 인체에 주입하기 위해 필요한 정밀 정전류원을 설계하여 제작한 결과, 출력 파형의 고조파 왜곡(THD, total harmonic distortion)이 0.0029%이고 진폭 안정도가 0.022%인 전류를 출력 할 수 있었다. 또한, 여러개의 정전류원을 사용함으로써 채 널간 오차를 유발하던 기존의 시스템을 변경하여, 하나의 전류원에서 만들어진 전류를 각 채널로 스위칭하여 공급함으로써 이로 인한 오차를 줄였다. 주입전류에 의해 유기된 전압의 정밀한 측정을 위해 높은 정밀도를 갖는 전압측정기가 필요하므로 차동증폭기, 고속 ADC및 FPGA(field programmable gate array)를 사용한 디지털 위상감응복조기 (phase-sensitive demodulator )를 제작하였다. 이때 병렬 처리를 가능하게 하여 모든 전극 채널에서 동시에 측정을 수행 할 수 있도록 하였으며, 제작된 전압측정기의 SNR(signal-to-noise ratio)은 90dB 이다. 이러한 EIT 시스템을 사용하여 배경의 전해질 용액에 비해 두 배의 저항률을 가지는 물체(바나나)에 대한 기초적인 영상복원 실험을 수행하였다. 본 시스템은 16채널로 제작되었으나 전체를 모듈형으로 설계하여 쉽게 채널의 수를 늘릴 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있어서 향후 64채널 이상의 디지털 EIT시스템을 제작할 계획이며, 인체 내부의 임피던스 분포를 3차원적 으로 영상화하는 연구를 수행 할 예정이다.
