An HTS (high temperature superconducting) coil without insulation has been investigated since a metallic insulation was suggested in the mid-1980s. The advantage of an insulationless HTS pancake coil is that it is more stable than an insulated HTS pancake coil. This paper focuses on the various characteristics of the insulationless HTS pancake coil related with stability, especially under the external magnetic field. Because HTS pancake coil may be influenced by the external magnetic field in a real operational environment of electrical devices. First, charge-discharge test was performed for the characteristics evaluation of the insulationless HTS pancake coil as compared with insulated HTS pancake coil in liquid nitrogen at 77 K. Based on the experiment results, characteristics evaluation of the insulationless HTS pancake coil was implemented under the external magnetic field. In order to carry out the experiment, we have fabricated a cylindrical solenoid coil to apply the magnetic field. The various characteristics of the insulationless HTS pancake coil were evaluated for charge-discharge and over-current conditions. This paper proves that the insulationless HTS pancake coil is more stable than the insulated HTS pancake under the external magnetic field.

For the measurement of the magnetic field distribution with high spatial resolution and high accuracy, the magnetic field sensing probe must be non-magnetic, but the MFM probe and sub-millimeter-meter size Hall probe use a ferromagnetic tip and block, respectively, to increase the sensitivity. To overcome this drawback, we developed a micro-size search coil magnetometer which consists of a single turn search coil, Terfenol-D actuator, scanning system, and control software. To reduce the noise generated by the stray ac magnetic field of the actuator driving coil, we employed an even function $\lambda$-H magnetostriction curve and lock-in technique. Using the developed magnetometer, we were able to measure the magnetic field distribution with a magnetic field resolution of 1 mT and spatial resolution of $0.1mm{\times}0.2mm$ at a coil vibration frequency of 1.8 kHz.

A new method for optimizing the magnetic field gradient in the exciting coil of electronic anti-fouling (EAF) system is presented based on changing exciting coil size. In the proposed method, two optimization expressions are deduced based on biot-savart law. The optimization expressions, which can describe the distribution of the magnetic field gradient in the coil, are the function of coil radius and coil length. These optimization expressions can be used to obtain an accurate coil size if the magnetic field gradient on a certain point on the coil's axis of symmetry is needed to be the maximum value. Comparing with the experimental results and the computation results using Finite Element Method simulation to the magnetic field gradient on the coil's axis of symmetry, the computation results obtained by the optimization expression in this article can fit the experimental results and the Finite Element Method results very well. This new method can optimize the EAF system's anti-fouling performance based on improving the magnetic field gradient distribution in the exciting coil.

현재까지 코일을 이용한 자성물질 가속에 코일과 자성물질간의 최적한 거리를 명시한 적이 없다. 전류세그먼트 코일구조와 그 다단계를 이용하여 자성물질을 가속 시 통상 코일과 자성 물질이 가깝게만 있으면 최적한 것으로 알고 있으나 미분법으로 극대점을 찾은 결과 코일간의 거리에 대한 절반위치에 있을 때 최적한 거리임을 알 수 있다. 여러 개의 상하 전류세그먼트 코일구조를 만들어 전류세그먼트 코일구조가 자성물질인 강구를 최적한 거리에서 가속할 수 있는지 확인하였다. 강구의 질량에 대한 코일 최소 전류를 실험으로 알았고 그 결과 코일 건이나 자성물질, 자성유체에 적용 시 코일과 물질 간에 최적 거리를 해결 하였다.

In this paper, current limiter using a magnetic switching which is based on magnetic flux change in the case of fault is proposed. This current limiter consists of iron-core and three parts of coils. One is the primary coil connected to the power system. Another is the secondary coil wound to the opposite direction of the primary coil's winding. The other is the secondary of the secondary coil which is a movable copper plate winding and located below the secondary coil. In the normal state, the magnetic flux produced in the primary and secondary coils flows to the opposite directions each other and becomes to be canceled out. Therefore the voltages induced between the coils are zero. In the case of a fault, at the moment of a fault occurrence recognition, the switch connected to a secondary coil is opened and the secondary of the secondary coil is pulled out to the outside of the iron-core. Then, magnetic flux becomes to flow through the iron-core. Accordingly, the voltage is induced between the both ends of the primary coil and makes the current reduced. Therefore it is possible to cut off the circuit breaker easily with the proposed current limiter. This paper analyzes the current limiting effects and the detailed results are given.

Magnetic separators that clean the fluid stream from impurities, protect the installations in numerous industries. This paper introduces a graphical user interface (GUI) which proposes an optimized coil separating magnetic particles with a radius from 1 up to 500 µm. High gradient magnetic fields are employed in an arbitrary user defined fluidic channel which is made of a nonmetallic material. The effects of coil parameters are studied and adjusted to design an optimum coil with a minimum Ohmic loss. In addition, to design the coil scheme based on the particle movements, a mathematical particle-tracing model within the fluid channels has been utilized. In comparison to conventional magnetic separators, this model is reconfigurable by the user, produces a weaker magnetic field, allows for continuous purifying and is easy to install, with high separation efficiency. The presented GUI is simple to use, where the coil's manufacturing limitations can be specified.

Rotary-type voice coil motors are widely used as actuators in hard disk drives. The recent trend toward higher density and smaller form factors in data storage devices requires performance improvement of the voice coil motor. In this study, we introduce a Halbach magnet array to the voice coil motor in order to increase the force generation. The Halbach magnetic circuit outperforms the conventional magnetic circuit due to the confined magnetic flux. To investigate the performance of the Halbach magnetic circuit, we analyze air gap flux density with the various shapes and thickness of the magnets using 3-dimensional finite element analysis. Consequently the optimum shape of the Halbach magnetic circuit is proposed. Simulations and experimental results proved effectiveness of the proposed magnet array in the voice coil motor for a commercial hard disk drive.

A very simple a.c. magnetic susceptometer for use in a helium closed cycle cryostat is reported in this paper. This simple setup has only a single bobbin-less copper coil, instead of the primary coil and two secondary coils typically used in mutual-inductance types. The single bobbin-less copper coil is directly mounted on the cryostat cold head. A sample is attached on the inside wall of the copper coil using a thermal contact material and its a.c. magnetic susceptibility is obtained from the measurement of the self-inductance of the sample coil using an LCR meter or an impedance analyzer. Experimental details are described and illustrative measurements on magnetic and superconducting materials as a function of temperature are included. The performances and limitations of this simple a.c. magnetic suceptometer are also discussed.

Thin film inductors of $10 mm \times 10 mm$ with inner coil type of 14 turns were fabricated by sputtering, photo-masking, and etching processes. Their characteristics of impedances and annealing after were investigated. The properties of impedances of the thin film magnetic core inductors with inner coil type were improved by magnetic field annealing due to the removal of residual stress and the improvement magnetic properties of magnetic films. But the characteristics of frequency of the thin film magnetic core inductors were not improved by magnetic field annealing due to properties of the spiral pattern and inner coil type. The thin film magnetic core inductor annealed by uniaxal field annealing method showed an inductance of 1000 nH and resistance of$ 6 \Omega$ of 1 at 2 MHz.

시변 자계를 이용하여 비접촉적인 방법으로 신경을 자극하기 위해서는 신경자극코일에 대용량 전류 펄스를 순시적으로 인가해야만 한다. 신경자극코일에 인가하는 전류 펄스의 주파수를 증가할수록 신경자극코일에 전력을 공급하는 전력공급기의 용량이 커지게 되고 신경자극코일에 발생하는 열량도 커지는 문제가 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 완화하기 위해 새로운 형태의 신경자극코일을 제안하였다. 신경자극코일에 강자성체 구조물을 부착하여 자계 거울 효과를 내게 하면 신경자극코일의 효율이 증가하게 된다. 다양한 형태의 신경자극코일에 대해 자계 거울 효과를 유한요소법으로 분석하였고 몇 종류의 신경자극코일에 대해 실험한 결과를 제시하였다.
