전기 에너지를 이용한 살균장치는 화학적인 과정이 없으며, 2차적인 환경 오염도 발생시키지 않는 장점을 가지고 있다. 또한 전력변환회로에는 영전류 스위칭과 영전압 스위칭을 사용한 소프트 스위칭 토폴로지에 의하여 스위칭 손실을 감소시키고, 장치의 크기를 소형화시킬 수 있는 장점이 있다. 제안한 전원장치는 기존의 장치들보다 출력전류가 매우 적어 전원 시스템으로 제작할 경우 소형화가 가능하며 가격이 저감될 수 있다. 따라서 이 전원 장치는 전력 소비가 적고 전력 변환이 급격한 곳에 적합하다.

EEFL can be driven by square wave driving method. A square wave is applied directly to both ends of EEFL by cascaded multi-stage full-bridge inverter. The various current shapes of lamp are achieved by various inductors between lamp and inverter. In this paper, it is newly investigated that the area of current directly influences the luminance. Furthermore, the 3-level square wave is considered to drive EEFL with self-discharge characteristics. The highest luminance efficiency is achieved by properly controlling the rate of self-discharge usage.

본 논문에서는 고역률의 단일전력단을 갖는 형광등용 전자식 안정기를 제안하고 설계ㆍ제작하였다. 저가의 새로운 형태를 갖는 고역률 단일전력단 형광등용 전자식 안정기는 부스터 컨버터와U형 고주파 공진 인버터로 구성되어진다. 그러나, 기존의 안정기와는 달리 제안된 안정기는 브리지 다이오드를 제거하고 간단한 제어회로로 구성함으로 간단한 구조를 갖는다. 부스터 컨버터는 상용전원의 정(＋), 부(－)전압에서 각각 동작하고 불연속 모드에서 동작함으로 높은 역률을 얻을 수 있다. 63.5〔W〕의 출력을 갖는 안정기를 제작하여 실험한 결과, PF 0.99, THD 15.4%, CF 1.55의 우수한 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

LCD의 대형화에 따라 백라이트용 냉음극 방전램프(Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp)는 길어지고 있으며, 하나의 램프를 이용한 백라이트는 휘도의 한계가 있어 대형 디스플레이에서는 여러 개의 램프를 사용하여 필요한 휘도를 만들고 있다. 본 논문에서는 냉음극 방전램프 20개를 사용하는 42인치 LCD TV용 대형 백라이트 구동을 위한 인버터를 각각의 램프들이 입력조건에 대해 동일한 출력을 갖도록 설계하였다. 기존의 냉음극 방전램프의 구동방식인 하이-로우(H-L) 방식에서의 문제점을 보완하여 하이-하이(H-H) 방식을 채택하여 램프 좌우측의 휘도 차이를 개선하였다. 또한 램프간의 휘도 편차를 개선하기 위해 램프와 직렬로 커패시터를 연결하는 방식을 사용하였다. 제안된 시스템을 실험을 통해 검증하였다.

This paper deals with a fixed frequency full-bridge inverter type DC-DC high-power converter with high frequency high voltage(HFHV) transformer-coupled stage, which operates under quasi-resonant ZVS transition priciple in spite of a wide PWM-based voltage regulation processing and largely-changed load conditions. This multi-resonant(MR) converter topology is composed of a series capacitor-connected parallel resonant tank which makes the most of parasitic circuit reactive components of HFHV transformer and two additional quasi-resonant pole circuits incorporated into the bridge legs. The soft-switching operation and practical efficacy of this new converter circuit using the latest IGBTs are actually ascertained through 50kV trially-produced converter system operating using 20kHz/30kHz high voltage(HV) transformers which is applied for driving the diagnostic HV X-ray tube load in medical equipments. It is proved from a practical point of view that the switching losses of IGBTs and their electrical dynamic stresses relating to EMI noise can be considerably reduced under a high frequency(HF) switching-based phase-shift PWM control process for a load setting requirements.

In this paper, a hybrid modular multilevel converter (MMC) topology with an improved nearest level modulation method is proposed for medium-voltage high-power applications. The arm of the proposed topology contains N series connected half-bridge submodules (HBSMs), one full-bridge submodule (FBSM) and an inductor. By exploiting the FBSM, half-level voltages are obtained in the arm voltages. Therefore, an output voltage with a 2N+1 level number can be generated. Moreover, the total level number of the inserted submodules (SMs) is a constant. Thus, there is no pulse voltage across the arm inductors, and the SM capacitor voltage is rated. With the proposed voltage balancing method, the capacitor voltage of the HBSM is twice the voltage of the FBSM, and each IGBT of the FBSM has a relatively low switching frequency and an equalized conduction loss. The capacitor voltage balancing methods of the two kinds of SMs are implemented independently. As a result, the switching frequency of the HBSM is not increased compared to the conventional MMC. In addition, according to a theoretical calculation of the total harmonic distortion of the electromotive force (EMF), the voltage quality with the presented method can be significantly enhanced when the SM number is relatively small. Simulation and experimental results obtained with a MMC-based inverter verify the validity of the developed method.

A fuel cell (FC) system includes a fuel processor plus subsystems to manage air, water, and thermal energy, and electric power. The overall system is high-priced and needs peripheral devices. In this paper, a FC simulator is designed and constructed with the electrical characteristics of a fuel cell generation (FCG) system, using uses a simple buck converter to overcome these disadvantages. The characteristic voltage and current (V-I) curve for the FC simulator is controlled by a simplified linear function. In addition, to verify FCG system performance and operation, a full-bridge DC/DC converter and a single-phase DC/AC inverter were designed and constructed for FC applications. Close agreement between the simulation and experimental results confirms the validity and usefulness of the proposed FC simulator.

The induction motor operated with vector control is driven by a three-phase PWM inverter supplied by the DC-link voltage. The investigation of the electric vehicle performed due to parameter variation of the induction motor has been presented.
