The application of the induction bending process to pipe systems in various industrial fields is increasing. Recently, efforts have also been made to apply this bending process to nuclear power plants because it can innovatively reduce welded parts of the curved pipes, such as elbows. However, there have been no cases of the application of induction bending to the piping of nuclear power plants. In this study, the applicability of the P91 induction bending piping for the sodium-cooled fast reactor PGSFR was validated through high temperature low cycle fatigue tests and creep tests using P91 induction bending pipe specimens. The tests confirmed that the materials sufficiently satisfied the fatigue life and the creep rupture life requirements for P91 steel at 550 ℃ in the ASME B&PV Code, Sec. III, Div. 5. The results show that the effects of heating and bending by the induction bending process on the material properties were not significant and the induction bending process could be applicable to piping system of PGSFR well.

An annular linear induction electromagnetic pump (ALIP) which has a developed pressure of 0.76 bar and a flow rate of 100 L/min is designed to analysis end effect which is main problem to use ALIP in thermohydraulic system of the prototype generation-IV sodium-cooled fast reactor (PGSFR). Because there is no moving part which is directly in contact with the liquid, such as the impeller of a mechanical pump, an ALIP is one of the best options for transporting sodium, considering the high temperature and reactivity of liquid sodium. For the analysis of an ALIP, some of the most important characteristics are the electromagnetic properties such as the magnetic field, current density, and the Lorentz force. These electromagnetic properties not only affect the performance of an ALIP, but they additionally influence the end effect. The end effect is caused by distortion to the electromagnetic field at both ends of an ALIP, influencing both the flow stability and developed pressure. The electromagnetic field distribution in an ALIP is analyzed in this study by solving Maxwell's equations and using numerical analysis.

The induction motor of the electric vehicles is controlled based on the vector control method to obtain good torque control characteristics. In the conventional vector control system, the field exciting current should be kept on a constant value to keep a stable flux level. This method has a liability that core loss becomes increasing at the light load region. To solve this liability, the efficiency maximizing control method of the vector controlled induction motor is proposed in thid paper. We developed light weight water cooled 60kW induction motor drive system which adopts our method and fabricated a conversion electric car for actual vehicle test. We demonstrate the usefulness of drive system by comparing its driving mode with conventional field oriented system and an efficiency maximizing controlled induction motor.

Due to of high intensity, lower noise and easy controllability of the heat, induction heating system became well known. Induction heating method has been suggested as substitute for the gas heat source and adopted in the automation of curved hull forming system. In this study, an investigation was accomplished to find the effects on the change of material properties when the induction heating was applied on the mild steel plate. Plates were heated using weaving method to get sufficiently heat affected zone and then cooled with water or in the air. The mechanical properties of the heated plate were evaluated. As results, the tensile test, impact test and microstructures satisfied the class rule.

전자유도 가열시설에서 정밀하고 일정한 주파수 성분에 의해 가열물체에 발열을 유도하려면 LC공진회로 설계단계에서 출력 주파수에 대한 커패시터의 정전용량(C)과 워크코일의 유도계수(L) 설정이 중요하다. 하지만 고유의 발열계수를 가진 물체의 가열위치와 범위에 직접유도를 하는 워크코일은 고정적으로 설계되는 반면 커패시터는 가변되도록 설계되어야만 전체장비의 활용도가 높아진다. 본 논문에서는 $1000V_{MAX}$ 최대전압과 $200I_{MAX}$ 전류에서 최대 700kHz의 고주파 LC공진 출력이 되도록 커패시터 내부구성 원자재 선정 및 공정설계 단계까지 단일전극 용량별 샘플을 추출하였다. 그리고 정전용량 규격변화에 따라 주파수 변화특성과 출력 파라메타 결과를 바탕으로 HF-LC공진용 전도냉각 커패시터의 최적설계를 위한 관계를 증명하는 기초 실험결과를 제시하였다.

The Development of A.C. Induction Motor for Railway Rolling Stock. The traction motor is designed as 4-pole induction motor with self ventilation. The winding insulation is throughout of materials of class C. The rotor is designed as a squrrel rotor with copper bar and casting. The rotor speed is detected by means of a pulse generator. The newer tection motor have no casting(frame). Punched-in holes make up the air duct and transfer the heat losses in complete. Maximim motor rpm is higher due to rotor construction. New is the entry of water-cooled traction motors in urban, However the water cooling design in - unfortunately - not applicable in traction motor.

A 1 MW class HTS (High-Temperature Superconducting) synchronous motor has been developed. This motor is aimed to be utilized for industrial application such as large motors operating in large plants. The HTS field coil of the developed motor is cooled by way of neon thermo siphonmechanism and the stator (armature) coil is cooled by water through hollow copper conductor. This paper also describes evaluation of some electrical parameters from performance test results of our motor, which was conducted at steady state in generator mode and motor mode. Open and short circuit tests were conducted in generator mode while a 1.1 MW rated induction machine was rotating the HTS machine. Electrical parameters such as mutual inductance and synchronous inductance are deduced from these tests. Load test was done upto rating torque during motor mode and efficiency was measured at each load torque.

고주파 유도가열장치는 LC 공진회로에 고주파 전원을 인가하여 금속을 가열 할 수 있다. 공진회로는 워크 코일과 전도 냉각 커패시터로 구성되며, 커패시터의 특성에 따라 열처리 설비의 성능을 좌우한다. 그러나 전도 냉각 커패시터는 국내 원천기술의 연구개발 부족으로 해외 수입 의존도가 높다. LC 공진 시 커패시터 내부의 발열을 최소화하고, 무효 전력손실을 줄이며, 내 전압특성이 우수한 커패시터가 요구된다. 국산화를 위하여, 선진 제조사의 완성품 커패시터의 주파수 응답 특성 분석에 대한 선행 연구가 필요하다. 주어진 로그-로그 특성 곡선의 임의 점에서 값을 읽기 위한 보간법을 연구하여 매틀랩 코딩으로 커패시터의 분석 도구로 적용하였다. 커패시터를 간단 화 된 RC 직렬 등가 회로로 가정하고, 등가 직렬 저항 ESL 값을 구하여 주파수 응답 특성 곡선을 재현하는 시뮬레이션을 시도하였다. 실제 무효전력의 피크 치에 대한 특성과 시뮬레이션 특성을 비교할 때 재현율이 83% 이상 결과 값으로 나타나는 것을 확인할 수 있었고, 이 알고리즘은 간단화 된 모델의 커패시터 특성곡선을 분석하여 예측 할 때 적용이 가능하다.

The end winding is an important part in induction motor for thermal analysis. But there is little information on the heat transfer coefficient of that surfaces because of geometrical complexity. So our experimental object is to know the heat transfer coefficient of end winding and find the optimum design parameter of rotor fan. Carbon coated papers were used for a uniform heat generating surfaces which were easy to fabricate. The experiments of some parameters were performed as varying rotation speed of rotor fan. We obtained the local and average Nusselt number of the end winding surfaces by correcting radiation and conduction losses errors. The results showed that the average Nusselt number increased with rotor fan blade number and width but decreased with end winding length. However, the increasing limits existed in the case of rotor fan width and blade number. So optimum design value were obtained for rotor fan width and blade numbers.

The heat generated in an induction motor is mostly dissipated through the frame. The study on the heat transfer characteristics of a newly manufactured finless TEFC(Totally Enclosed Fan Cooled) induction motor showed/that it had an unsuitable structure in view of the heat transfer. The angle of the cooling air flow was very large and the ribs disturbed the air flow and partially generated the wake region on the frame. In the wake region the temperature was very high. Thus the heat transfer coefficients were lower than those of the frame with fins. Also was investigated the heat transfer characteristics of the motor frame by installing various guide vanes in the fan-side end cap. An optimum heat transfer case was found and the average heat transfer coefficient of the frame was 70% higher and the average coil temperature measured by the resistance method was 9 deg. C lower than that of the frame which had no guide vanes.
