This paper focuses on the control of bidirectional power flow in the electric shipboard power systems, especially in the Medium-Voltage Direct Current (MVDC) shipboard power system. Bidirectional power control between the main MVDC bus and the local zones can improve the energy efficiency and control flexibility of electric ship systems. However, since the MVDC system contains various nonlinear loads such as pulsed power load and radar in various subsystems, the voltage of the MVDC and the local zones varies significantly. This voltage variation affects the control performance of the bidirectional DC-DC converters as exogenous disturbances. To improve the control performance regardless of uncertainties and disturbances, this paper proposes a novel controller design method of the bidirectional DC-DC converters using $L_1$ control theory and intelligent optimization algorithm. The performance of the proposed method is verified via large-scale real-time digital simulation of a notional shipboard MVDC power system.

This paper presents electromagnetic interference(EMI) suppression method applied on the direct current(DC) motor driver for power tail gate control. EMI noise is generated by the fast switching of power devices connected to electric loads. It has become a matter of concern because of the vast increase in the number and sophistication of electronic system in automotive environment. The proposed EMI reduction method is based on the principle of reducing the transient speed of power devices by changing the parameters of the driver circuit related to the power MOSFET. In this paper, power losses were calculated by loss equations and thermal simulation was used to evaluate the effect on printed circuit board. Based on these results, the DC motor driver was fabricated and tested. The proposed method can help to design a DC motor driver which allows it to obtain an acceptable compromise between power losses and EMI.

실리콘 기판상에 여러 조건의 전류밀도에서 로듐 도금을 실시하였다. 직류전원의 경우 전류밀도가 증가하면 로듐 표면에 균열이 발생하였다. 잔류응력을 낮추기 위하여 펄스전류를 인가하였다. 펄스전류의 off 시간이 도금층의 잔류응력을 낮추는데 영향을 주었다. 펄스전류의 인가 주기를 5:5로 하였을 경우 균열 없는 로듐 도금층을 얻었다.

Research on photovoltaic (PV) generation is taking a lot of attention due to its infinity and environment-friendliness with decrease of price per PV cell. While central inverters connect group of PV modules to utility grid in which maximum power point tracking (MPPT) for each module is difficult, micro inverter is attached on each module so that MPPT for individual modules can be easily achieved. Moreover, energy generation and consumption efficiency can be much improved by employing direct current (DC) distribution system. In this paper, a digitally controlled PV micro converter interfacing PV to DC distribution system is proposed. Boundary conduction mode (BCM) is utilized to achieve zero voltage switching (ZVS) of active switch and eliminate reverse recovery problem of passive switch. A 120W prototype boost PV micro converter is implemented to verify the feasibility and experimental results show higher than 98% efficiency at peak power and 97.29% of European efficiency.

This paper introduces an overall system design of a real-time monitoring system that monitors condition of urban railway AC/DC transformers, disconnecting switches, circuit breakers, regulators, and GIS (gas insulated switchgear). For effective diagnosis of urban railway facilities we developed optimized sensors and application technology. The proposed system is combined with wireless technology, implementing remote real-time monitoring of urban railway facilities. The derived real-time monitoring system for power facilities in urban railway substations will be applied not only to diagnose low voltage DC (direct current) railways but also to diagnose design of small power facilities of skyscrapers and apartments.

A mixed method between $H_2\;and\;H_{\infty}$ control are widely applied to systems which has parameter perturbation and uncertain model to obtain an optimal robust controller. Brushless Direct Current (BLDC) motors are widely used for high performance control applications. Conventional PID controller only provides satisfactory performance for set-point regulation. However, with the presence of nonlinearities, uncertainties and perturbations in the system, conventional PID is not sufficient to achieve an optimal robust controller. This paper presents an approach to ease designing a Mixed $H_2/H_{\infty}$ PID controller for controlling speed of Brushless DC motors and the genetic algorithm is used to solve the optimized problems. Numerical results are shown to prove that the performance in the proposed controller is better than that in the optimal PID controller using LQR approach.

For a given brushless DC linear motor, we analyze the thrust characteristics. We measure the back-EMF and then calculate the thrust with it. To compare the thrust, we measure it direct with force-torque meter and we calculate it from Lorentz equation. As the thrust and the back-EMF vary linearly according to the current and the velocity respectively, we define the thrust constant and the back-EMF constant. To match the motor to its controller, we calculate the thrust constant and the back-EMF constant. The result calculated with the back-EMF differs from that of the measurement by only 4.4%.

본 논문에서는 기존 전류형 HVDC(High Voltage Direct Current) 토폴로지에서 DC단에 직렬로 MMC(Modular multi-level Con verter, MMC) 토폴로지를 결합하여 대용량의 전력을 전류형 HVDC로 사용하고, 소용량 전력을 MMC로 사용 및 전력을 컨트롤하여 전류형 HVDC의 점호각을 최소로 가져갈 수 있는 토폴로지를 설계하였다. 이러한 토폴로지는 최소점호각 제한을 적게 할 수 있고, 동일출력 DC전압 조건하에서 무효전력발생을 적게 할 수 있는, 기존 전류형 HVDC에 MMC를 추가한 새로운 하이브리드 HVDC용 AC/DC컨버터의 구조이다. 타당성 검증을 위해 PSIM을 이용한 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다.

Nanocrystalline HfN coatings were prepared by reactively sputtering Hf metal target with N2 gas using a magnetron sputtering system operated in DC and ICP (inductively coupled plasma) condition with various powers. The effects of ICP power, ranging from 0 to 200 W, on the coating microstructure, corrosion and mechanical properties were systematically investigated with FE-SEM, AFM, potentiostat and nanoindentation. The results show that ICP power has a significant influence on coating microstructure and mechanical properties of HfN coatings. With the increasing of ICP power, coating microstructure evolves from the columnar structure of DC process to a highly dense one. Average grain size and nano hardness of HfN coatings were also investigated with increasing ICP powers.

Electromagnetic seawater thrusters may be classified into four general categories : internal duct dc, external field dc, internal peristaltic ac, and external peristaltic ac. Internal duct dc thrusters offer the advantages of low magnetic field leakage, simple construction, and potentially high reliability. The most efficient internal duct configuration consists of converging inlet nozzle and a straight discharge duct. Ideal efficiency calculations based on the one-dimensional Bernoulli equation show that thrusters should be designed with large cross-sectional areas and operate at low discharge velocities. In practice, this may be accomplished by using multiple thruster ducts. Conductivity enhancement, high magnetic fields, and long electrodes will also improve efficiency.
