In this paper, the loss analyses of two soft switching techniques for two-transistor forward converter are performed. The sums of snubber conduction and capacitive turn-on losses for two transistors are calculated to compare the losses of the two techniques. While the conventional soft switching technique shows the loss difference between two transistors, the proposed soft switching technique shows equal as well as lower losses In two transistors. Thus, it can be said that even thermal distribution and higher reliability can be obtained by the proposed soft switching technique.

This paper describes a soft switching using discontinuous inductor current. The soft switching snubber circuit provides ZCS and ZVS for main switch. For high power applications, the input ractifier is fed from a three-phase ac source. The Conventional switching method is hard switching technics, because of the device turn off is ocurred in maximum reactor current. In this time, switching losses are maximised by the hard switching. In generally, soft switching technique has been adjusted with the snubber condenser in order to compensates for this losses. So, it was compared hard switching with soft switching which has proposed in this paper for switching losses, distortion factor by the simulation.

Effect of tension coating on reducing iron losses of thin grain-oriented 3% Si-Fe steel sheets was investigated. Conventional grain-oriented electrical steel sheets have a forsterite coating layer and a tension coating layer in order to apply tensile stress to the rolling direction of the sheets. However the proposed coating method in this paper is to form only a tension coating layer on the both surfaces of the sheets. Iron losses with the tension coating were reduced by 8% under the condition of 1.7 T and 60 Hz. Consequently the proposed tension coating is applicable to $80{\mu}m$-thick 3% Si-Fe steel sheets.

This paper describes analysis of transformer sheet winding losses and temperature rise. Sheet windings are used if transformer rating currents are so high that one meets current density limit on windings. Unlike stranded windings, sheet windings may be locally healed due to R direction flux. Winding losses with eddy current effect are calculated by finite element electromagnetic analysis and temperature rise is also calculated by Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) with loss result.

This paper presents a comparison of core losses for the four cases of Switched Reluctance Motors (SRM) with different winding method and switching sequence. With concentrated winding SRM, two kinds of switching sequence are considered for one-phase exciting and two-phase simultaneously exciting driving. With both distributed winding and toroidal winding, two-phase exciting driving is considered. The ratio of calculated core losses to input power is able to be used a guide or reference for deciding the winding method and switching sequence of in the initial design stage of SRM.

This paper proposes a power supply for welding machine of reducing conduction Losses. To improve the conventional Phased-Shift FB DC-DC converter's problems that the copper loss in the high frequency transformer and conduction losses in the 1st terms bridge switch device because the leakage energy in the high frequency transformer and inducing of circulating current. This paper suggested a new topology of FB PWM DC-DC converter for welding machine to minimize a circulating current.

The pressure drop of twelve fuel bundle string in the CANDU-6 fuel channel is equal to the sum of the eleven junction pressure losses, the bundle string entrance and exit pressure losses, the skin friction pressure loss, and other appendage pressure losses, where the junction loss is dependent on the bundle end faces and angular alignments of the junctions. The results of the single junction pressure drop tests in a short rig show that the most probable pressure drop of the eleven junctions was analytically equal to the eleven times of average pressure drop of all the possible single junction pressure drops, and also that the largest and smallest junction pressure drops across the eleven junctions probably occurred only with BA and BB type junctions, respectively, where A and B denote the bundle end sides with an end-plates on which a company monogram is stamped and unstamped, respectively.

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of cutting frequency and nitrogen fertilization on $(NO_3$-N leaching losses under 12 years mixture permanent meadow, The results of this study were summarized as follows: 1. There was no difference in the $(NO_3$-N content of soil water within 1 m soil depth during the whole experimental period. It means that the content of $(NO_3$-N leaching losses was not influenced by botanical composition, cutting frequency and nitrogen fertilization in this experiment. 2. The level of $(NO_3$-N content during the whole experimental period was not in excess of 0.5 ppm level.

Preventive and curative activity of postharvest treatments with chitosan nanoparticles (CS) and chitosan biocomposites loaded with pepper tree essential oil (CS-PEO) against anthracnose were evaluated on Avocado (Persea americana) cv. Hass artificially inoculated in rind wounds. After 10 days of storage significant preventive and curative activity against Colletotrichum gloeosporioides was observed with the absence of internal damage by applying CS and CS-PEO. Quality parameters like water losses and firmness changes were assessed on fruit treated. CS and CS-PEO were effective to reduce water losses and firmness losses.

The current study presents experimental research on a parabolic trough collector with tube and cavity receivers. The primary concentrating parabolic reflector is designed for an aperture area of 2×2 m² with mirror-polished stainless steel sheet reflectors. The cavity receiver consists of a compound parabolic secondary reflector and a copper tube. Both the conventional tube receiver and the cavity receiver tube are coated with black powder. The experiments are carried out to compare the efficiency of the cavity receiver with the tube receiver for fluid temperature rise, thermal efficiency, and overall losses. The experiments showed significantly higher fluid temperature rise and overall efficiency and lower thermal losses for the cavity receiver compared to the tube receiver within the parameters explored in this study.
