This paper suggests a new type of 4-switch inverter for switched reluctance motor drives. 4-switch Inverter topology is studied to provide possibility for the realization of cost of 3-phase SRM drive system. We used Y-connection and two-phase exciting method. For effective utilization of the developed system, a direct current controlled PWM scheme is designed and implemented to produce the desired dynamic. We solve to balance the neutral point of Y-connection by the direct current controlled PWM and examine the performance of proposed system. With the algorithm and developed control scheme, is expected that the proposed system can be widely used in commercial applications with a reduced system cost.

One of the electrode in Haenam converter, which is role of rectifier in Jeju-Haenam HVDC system is destroyed and we found many cracks at another electrode and we also found many cracks in Jeju converter station, which is role of inverter of Jeju-Haenam. HVDC system, there is no exact reason for these phenomenon, even though the life cycle of these electrode is 40 years. So, the experts for HVDC system in KEPCO and Anotec corporation, which is manufacturer of electrode, would perform research for the reason of electrode disorder. In this paper analyze the reason of electrode disorder and corrosion in high voltage direct current system.

This paper proposes a new sensorless drive system for the trapezoidal Brushless Direct Current (BLDC) motor requiring mechanical position or speed sensor. The proposed method is using only one current sensor For this an indirect rotor position sensing method from the periodically variation DC Link current waveform. DC Link current waveform change from high to low when BLDC commutate status. This algorithm was verified by simulations using MATLAB SIMULINK and experiment.

Carbon nanofibers were formed on silicon substrate which was applied by negative direct current (DC) bias voltage using microwave plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition method. Formation of carbon nanofibers were varied according to the variation of the applied bias voltage. At -250 V, we found that the growth direction of carbon nanofibers followed the applied direction of the bias voltage. Based on these results, we suggest one of the possible techniques to control the growth direction of the carbon nanofibers.

Fault current problems is considered a serious issue in the power system because large fault currents not only cause many side effects to the equipments of power system but also lead to severe problems, such as blackouts. This paper deals with the structural analysis and 3-phase fault current stability of the future Seoul metropolitan power system. The simulation composition and analysis are performed with the 4th KEPCO power supply planning data using PSS/e. Through the results of the simulations, it can be observed that the future Seoul metropolitan system results in a fault current which exceeds the circuit breaker (CB) rate. This unremovable fault current can cause critical damage to power system. To resolve the problem, the algorithm for the application of Voltage Sourced Converter Back-to-Back High Voltage Direct Current (VSC BTB HVDC) is being proposed. where the most suitable location for solving fault current problem in Seoul metropolitan area is being implemented.

The Boil-Off-Gases(BOG) in the LNG production terminal are continuously generated during the unloading, storage and supply processes by the heat penetration. In order to use these gases as useful fuel, the reliquefaction process should be installed to put the reliquefied BOG in the main LNG supply line before the secondary pump in terminal. The current reliquefaction method of BOG in LNG terminal is the direct contact one between LNG and BOG in the absorption column. But the system has severe disadvantage, which is the 10 times of LNG circulation needed for unit mass of BOG reliquefaction. It causes, therefore, high power consumption of LNG circulation pump and excessive city-gas supply, even if short demand of NG is needed in the summer time. In this paper, the new reliquefaction system of BOG by using LNG cold energy with indirect contact in precooler was suggested and analysed. The result showed new indirect contact method of BOG reliquefaction system between LNG cold energy and BOG is much more effective than the current direct contact one because of only about 1.3 times of LNG circulation needed and higher energy saving by pump power reduction.

A study on the test method and the test facilities of synthetic capacitive current tests have been very slight and the direct test method with the short-circuit generator and power transformer only used up to now. However, according to the development of analysis technique of power system and design and manufacture technique we are realized that direct testing method is not satisfactory to evaluate the performance of circuit-breaker because it is difficult to simulate precisely the conditions of power system. Therefore, in order to solve these problem this paper deals with the tests methods and the design technique of the tests facilities of the synthetic capacitive current based on the same theory with the synthetic short-circuit tests.

This paper presents an implementation of Direct torque control(DTC) of Reluctance Synchronous Motor(RSM) drives for an industrial servo drive system with stator current space vector. The estimation of the stator flux magnitude are obtained by using the neural network from measuring the modulus and angle of the stator current space vector. The develolled digitally high-performance control system are shown a good response characteristic of control results and high performance features using 1.0kW RSM.

This paper is proposed maximum torque control for electric vehicle drive. At low speeds, the reluctance torque is used to maximize the output for a given current level. This Is achieved maximum torque per ampere(MTPA) by selecting an optimal value of the direct stator current component. At high speeds, the system reaches a point at which the inverter will not be able to supply the desired voltage In this case it Is necessary to make use of an increased value the direct current component. The proposed control algorithm is applied to PMSM drive system, the operating characteristics controlled by maximum torque control are examined in detail by simulation.
