This paper proposes a new power conditioning system for the SMES composed of a thyristor PWM converter with a resonant commutation circuit. The operation of the proposed system and the dynamic interaction between SMES and the power system is analyzed by a theoretical approach with equivalent circuits and verified by computer simulations with EMTP, considering a typical 154kV power system. The proposed system can provide a solution for the power factor regulation and harmonic level reduction in the ac terminal with low-cost system configuration.

This paper was development a discharge lamp ballast in order to wave improvement of high power factor and high efficiency. The discharge lamp ballast consists of a power factor correction circuit and a correction circuit on switching frequency of inverter. Instead of passive power factor circuit, active power factor circuit is adopted. Because it has the advantage of size, weight, total harmonic distortion, out DC voltage regulation, and power factor. The power factor circuit with MG34262 is controlled by variable frequency discontinuous mode. Results experiments, discharge lamp ballast is showed to have excellent for the proposed electronic ballast's operation and characteristics.

Front end AC to DC converters of the boost type are used in traction applications for generating the DC link for the inverters. A GTO based converter is usually switched with a switching frequency of 300 to 500Hz, resulting in low frequency harmonic problems. In order to avoid this, multiple converters with phase shifted carrier signals are used to suppress the low frequency harmonics. A detailed study of an AC to DC converter, parallel operated with reduced sensor and improved power-factor in light load conditions is presented in this paper.

Power transformer protective relay should block the tripping during magnetizing imrush and rapidly operate the tripping during internal faults. But traditional approaches maloperate in the case of magnetizing inrush with low second harmonic component and internal faults with high second harmounic component. To enhance the fault detection sensitivities of conventional technuques, flux-differential current derivative curve by fuzzy theory approaches is used. This paper deals with fuzzy logic based protective relaying for power transformer. The proposed fuzzy based relaying algorithm consisits of flux-differential current derivative curve, harmonics restraint, and precentage differential characteristic curv. The proposed relaying was tested with relaying signals obtained from Salford EMTP simulation package and showed a fast and accurate trip operation.

Since world-wide oil shock on 1970s, many large size-low speed diesel engines, instead of steam turbines, are used for the industrial electric power generating plants due to their economic advantage of low specific fuel consumption. But it is very important to control their electric power fluctuation problems for the purpose of smooth parallel operation with existing power plants. In this paper the fluctuation problem of KEPCO Nam-cheju No.1 generator driven by diesel ngine(B & W 7K 60MC, 13931x138.5RPM) is investigated with analysis of torsional vibration of which 4th harmonic component is related to its power fluctuation. The problem can be improved by modification of cylinder arrangement and flywheel position in reverse sequence, equalizing the combustion gas pressure of all cylinder and installation of torsional vibration damper enlarged 30%(Je=7287Kg.m$^{2}$) and high quality balancing of generator rotor.

In this paper, a unified regenerative inverter system for railway with DC line voltage simulator is proposed. In order to determine the operation characteristics of the regenerative inverter, the DC line voltage simulator is proposed. The DC line voltage simulator, which is based on the AC-DC PWM converter, varies the DC voltage according to the fluctuating voltage which is measured in the actual DC line. The suitable operating point of the regenerative inverter can be estimated from the simulation result. The regenerative inverter operates two modes. When the DC line voltage exceed the operating point, already set up, it works as regenerative inverter to return the excessive power of DC line to the grid. When the DC line voltage is under the operating point, it works as active power filter to compensate harmonic currents. In this paper, the control algorithm of the DC line voltage simulator and that of the regenerative inverter is proposed.

A multi-channel audio CODEC with inter-channel interference suppression is proposed, in which channel switching noise-referred sampling error is significantly reduced. It also supports a coarse/fine mode operation for fast frequency tracking with good harmonic performance. The proposed multi-channel audio CODEC was designed in a 65 nm CMOS process. Measured results indicated that SNR and SNDR of ADC were 93 dB and 84dB, respectively, with SNDR improved by 43 dB. Those of DAC were 96 dB and 87 dB, respectively, with SNDR improved by 45 dB when all the channels are running independently.

This paper describes a single-phase active power filter based on a newly developed digital controller. The developed controller utilizes FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) algorithm to extract the reference signal from the load current, considering the phase-angle delay of each order of harmonics. Optimized technique was applied for whole control algorithm to implement the real-time operation of developed controller. The performance of developed controller for a single-phase active power filter was verified through computer simulations with PSCAD/EMTDC. The feasibility of hardware implementation was confirmed by building and testing a prototype. The developed digital controller for a single-phase active power filter can compensate the harmonic current generated by the power supply for digital equipment.

The control performance of hybrid PWM inverter using a phase current measurement is presented in this paper. The hybrid PWM technique consists of space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) and six-step voltage control operation. The SVPWM is performed to reduce the harmonic components in the low speed region, and the six-step modulation is applied to increase the maximum speed of the IPMSM in the high speed region. Therefore, it is possible to obtain a great performance in both the low speed range and high speed range. However, the six-step modulation cannot be completely implemented, since the inverter that includes the lag-shunt sensing method has an immeasurable current region. In this paper, a quasi-six-step modulation using a modified voltage vector is proposed. The validity and usefulness of the proposed PWM technique is verified by MATLAB/Simulink and experimental results.
