The SLF(Short Line Fault) breaking capability test for high voltage class $SF_6$ GCB(Gas Circuit Breaker) was conducted. Simplified LC resonant circuit test facility was used for SLF breaking test. During test, Test current was measured by Rogwski coil and arc voltage was measured by voltage divider. Arc conductance was calculated by using these test results before 200ns at current zero. Critical arc conductance value at rated voltage 145kV class is about 2.3mS regardless of breaking current magnitude and arc conductance value at rated voltage 170kV class is about 2.6mS.

In this paper, we represent characteristics and equivalent circuit of donut type resonator of defected ground structure (DGS), and can control resonant frequency with chip capacitor. In General, DGS operates like with parallel LC resonator. We found out variation of resonance frequency when capacitor is placed on slot of DGS. If the chip capacitor replace with varactor diode, the resonance frequencies can be controlled by voltage. This tualable resonator can apply to voltage controlled oscillator and tunable bandpass filter.

This paper presents a study on the design optimization of a 5 kW plasma discharger for driving plasma reactor. The proposed study is composed of a high-frequency inverter based on the full-bridge circuit using soft switching techniques for high-frequency switching. The switching frequency in the operating region is the area of 130-200 kHz. By applying the LC resonance technique and a variable switching frequency, control technique is designed to be stable under changes in the load characteristics of the plasma reactor. This paper presents a quantitative analysis technique for design optimization. Experiments are performed according to load characteristic variations depending on the vacuum of the plasma reactor. This paper has verified the topology and design method for the 5 kW plasma discharger design.

A design for the input filter and the output filter of a single-phase uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system is proposed. A filter design example is presented. And also, this dissertation describes a reduction of the DC voltage ripple of a single-phase UPS. The input power of proposed UPS fluctuates with twice frequency of the utility source, which causes DC voltage fluctuation. The reduction of the DC voltage fluctuation requires a large DC link capacitor. The proposed method uses a LC series resonant filter paralleled with a conventional smoothing capacitor. The effectiveness of the proposed method was confirmed by simulation results.

본 논문에서는 3상 220V/5kVA 소프트스위칭 인버터의 새로운 회로구성을 제안하고 그 동작과 성능을 분석한 내용을 기술하고 있다. 제안하는 소프트스위칭 인버터는 ARCP(Auxiliary Resonant Commutated Pole) 인버터의 회로구성과 유사한 구조이나 이와 달리 LC 공진회로와 Diode 클램프 회로로 구성되어 있다. 이론적인 분석과 실험을 통해 제안하는 인버터의 효율을 분석하고 이를 하드스위칭 인버터와 비교하여 약 1% 정도의 효율 개선이 가능함을 알 수 있었다. 제안하는 인버터는 소프트 스위칭을 위해 소프트스위칭 보조회로와 게이트 드라이버가 추가로 장착되는 점에서 비용적인 경쟁력이 떨어질 수 있다. 그러나 최근 수요가 급증하고 있는 인버터에서 1% 효율 차이는 전력수급의 효율화를 통해 비용 측면에서 경쟁력을 갖을 것으로 판단된다. 또한 소프트스위칭 회로의 컴팩트화와 하드웨어의 최적화된 물리적 배치를 통해 추가의 효율증대가 가능할 것으로 보인다.

This paper presents a high frequency modulation electronic ballast for the metal halide lamp. As the proposed ballast operates in high frequency ranges (20kHz - 100kHz) and it can start up the lamp using the LC resonant circuit without external igniter, the proposed ballast is very compact. The proposed ballast is controlled with the modulated frequency in the range of 20kHz to 100kHz, and it has variable modulating frequencies between 200Hz and 2kHz in order to avoid the acoustic resonance phenomenon. In this paper, a new realtime acoustic resonance detection method is described and the experimental results with the proto-type ballast of 150W metal halide lamp with the dimming function are discussed.

For small capacity rectifier circuits such as these for consumer electronics and appliances, capacitor input type rectifier circuits are generally used. Consequently, various harmonics generated within the power system become a serious problem. Various studies of this effect have been presented previously. However, most of these employ switching devices, such as FET and the like. The absence of switching devices mattes systems more tolerant to over-load and brings low radio noise benefits. We propose a power factor correction scheme using a LC resonant in commercial frequency without switching devices. In this method It makes a sinusoidal wave by widening conduction period using the current resonance in commercial frequency, Hence, the harmonic characteristics can be significantly improved, where the lower order harmonics, such as the fifth and seventh orders are much reduced The result are confirmed by the theoretical and experimental implementations.

본 논문은 단일 스위치 공진형 컨버터에서 스위치의 전압 스트레스를 줄이는 설계 방법을 소개한다. 일반적으로 단일 스위치 공진형 컨버터는 입력 전압 대비 높은 전압이 스위치에 걸리므로 높은 입력 전압 응용에 제약이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 스위치의 피크 전압을 줄이고자 3차 고조파를 주입한 전압 모양을 만들도록 스위치 주변의 LC 공진 회로를 설계한다. 이 설계 방식을 이용하면 영전압 스위칭이 가능할 뿐만 아니라 전압 스트레스를 입력 전압의 2.2배 정도로 줄일 수 있다. 또한, 설계 원칙에 따라 여러 토폴로지가 유도되며, 설계 예시를 통해 제안된 설계 방식의 효용성을 실험적으로 입증한다.

산업용으로 사용되는 전기흡착식 오일 플러싱 시스템에 코로나 방전층을 형성하기 위해서 10kV이상의 고전압원이 필요하다. 현재 전기흡착식 오일 플러싱 시스템을 위한 고전압원으로 고전압 변압기와 다이오드 정류 방식을 사용되고 있으나 변압기 구동을 저주파로 구동하므로 시스템의 크기 줄이는데 제약이 있다. 이러한 무게와 부피를 저감하기위한 다른 방식으로는 고주파의 하프 브릿지 컨버터와 2차단의 전압 더블러 방식을 채택하는데 이 방식의 경우 앞단의 스파이크성 전류로 인하여 다이오드의 발열 문제가 심각하다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서 LC 공진형 컨버터를 제안하였으며 컨버터의 설계 또한 제시하였다. 이러한 설계와 제안된 컨버터의 효용성을 검증하기 위해서 최대 출력 150W와 출력전압 15kV의 시작품을 제작하여 실험을 실행하였다.

When induction motor is driven with a load commutated inverter, the output part of the inverter must be capacitive. But, in order to be a good load commutation at the low speed range, very large capacitor or force commutated circuit must be used regarding the capacity of motor. This paper proposed the force commutated circuit for driving the motor in case of the installation of capacitor which can be capable of load commutation at the rating speed. The force commutated circuit is operated by the LC resonant circuit, auxiliary source and SCR, and also composed of the commutation circuit which control the interval of the inverse voltage across the inverter.
