A proposed the electrical fan heater using induction heating is innovative system which applied IH(Induction Heating) magnetic induction heating generated from induction-heated metallic package and high-frequency power circuit technique for thermal converse technique. In this occurs not burning, so that the working environment and deterioration of products can be improved. The existing heater that low efficiency by heated resistance or using fossil fuel of coal, diesel, kerosene has problems about burden for high cost price. In this paper are compared efficiency the existing heaters and designed electrical fan heaters using 3[kW]-Class full-bridge resonant inverter. In addition, action analysis and application of system are discussed.

For the application of soft-switching technique to single Phase-full bridge inverter. in this paper ZCT(Zero Current Transition) and ZVT(Zero Voltage Transition) techniques proposed previously are compared and discussed the merit and demerit of both. Both have a excellency that can reduce the number of auxiliary switch and resonant circuit compared to other techniques and achive soft-switching in auxiliary switch itself. Therefore, it has enabled us to have benifits of realizing high efficiency and reliability, low EMI for high switching frequency and reducing the cost as well as size of device.

The BLDCM(Brushless DC motor) has been the Trapezoidal Back Electromotive Force(EMF) due to a surface magnet rotor with nonlinear distribution and full-pitch windings. Theoretically, it should be fed with rectangular phase current in order to minimize torque ripple. But, because voltage source inverter drives BLDCM, perfectly rectangular phase currents are not available. Now in this paper, using fourier series coefficients, calculating the coefficients of harmonic current within available orders and each harmonic component are controlled on stationary frame. Only using four switches, low cost and small size drive can be made and proposed method will be more useful in industrial. Simulation and experimental results prove the validity of the proposed method.

Automotive inverters may require current sensors for motor torque control, especially, in applications of hybrid electric vehicles or fuel cell vehicles. In this paper, to achieve a compact, integrated and low cost current sensor, a hall current sensor without magnetic core is introduced for integrating an automotive inverter. The compactness of the current sensor is possible by using integrated magnetic concentrators based on the Hall effect. Magnetic fields caused by three-phase currents are analyzed and a magnetic shield design is proposed for decoupling the cross-coupled field. It offers galvanic isolation, wide bandwidth (>100kHz), and accuracy(< 1%). Using 2D FEM analysis, its performance is demonstrated with design parameters at a U-shaped magnetic shield. The proposed coreless current sensor is tested with rated current to validate the linearity and accuracy.

Due to the large capacity and low cost, DC link electrolytic capacitors with of energy storage and voltage regulation are used for almost all types of power converter as the DC/AC inverter or DC/DC converter. Electrolytic capacitor, which is the most of the time affected by the aging effect, plays very important role for the power converter system quality and reliability. Therefore, this paper proposes a simple method to estimate the capacitance variation of an electrolytic capacitor in order to analyze the internal characteristic decrease and worn-out state of an electrolytic capacitor. Simulation results by using capacitor storage energy computation show the validity of the proposed capacitance estimation method.

Discrete space vector modulation (DSVM) is an effective method to improve the steady-state performance of the finite control set predictive control for permanent magnet synchronous motor drive systems. However, it requires complex computations due to the presence of numerous virtual voltage vectors. This paper proposes an improved finite control set model-free predictive control using DSVM to reduce the computational burden. First, model-free deadbeat current control is used to generate the reference voltage vector. Then, based on the principle that the voltage vector closest to the reference voltage vector minimizes the cost function, the optimal voltage vector is obtained in an effective way which avoids evaluation of the cost function. Additionally, in order to implement double-objective control, a two-level decisional cost function is designed to sequentially reduce the stator currents tracking error and the inverter switching frequency. The effectiveness of the proposed control is validated based on experimental tests.

One of the drawbacks of using diode-bridge rectifiers in the unity interface, is the line-current harmonic distortion caused by the nonlinear nature of the rectifier operation. So, a PWM converter for the power factor correction is analysed for unity power factor as well as low cost design, which enable to meet the limits of international standards.

Current Source Inverter(CSI) operated in square wave mode is more efficient than the PWM CSI because of increased cost greater complexity of control algorithm, and substantial switching losses EMI. But the square wave output current of CSI rich in low order harmonics produce motor torque ripples. Therefore in this paper describes the active power filters for square wave current compensation of current source induction motor. Also extended current synchronous detection(ECSD) as compensation algorithm is proposed. To confirm the validity o proposed system some simulation results are presented and discussed.

Switched reluctance motor(SRM) has the advantages of simple structure, low rotor inertia, and high poer rate per unit volume. However, position sensor isessential in SRM in order to synchronize the phase excitation to the rotor position. The position sensors increase the cost of drive system, and tend to reduce system reliability. This paper investigtes the speed control of sensorless SRM. The proposed system consists of position detection circuit, dwell angle controller, digital logic commutator, PI speed controller and 4-phase inverter. The performances in the proposed system are verified through the experiment.

A new of the automotive High Intensity Discharge(HID) lamp ballast systems is proposed. Proposed scheme is consisted of the high frequency DC-DC converter and low frequency DC-AC inverter as same as conventional HID ballast system. But this system separates ignition voltage from dc link voltage, which results to used the lower voltage rating power devices for HID lamp ballast system compared with conventional system. As a result, proposed system has a lower cost and higher efficiency.
