This Paper describes technique for the design of system for telemetering the water temperature at sea. This telemetering device adopts FM-FM system, and its main carrier wave is 146.2MHz. The transmission power is about 1W, and the available distance of transmission is 2km. The telemetering time for the transmission and pause is controlled automatically by the CMOS programmable timer. The water temperature is measured by the electronic thermometer, it is varied by V-F converter which is built to a linear voltage controlled oscillator. The results of the experiment at the place where the receiver is off 2km from the transmitter, the water temperature measured with the mercury thermometer well agree with that of the telemetering device.

This paper describes the design and integration of the wind-fuel cell hybrid system. The hybrid system components included a wind turbine, an electrolyzer (for generation of H2), a PEMFC (Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell), hydrogen storage tank and BOP (Balance of Plant) system. The energy input is entirely provided by a wind turbine. A DC-DC converter controls the power input to the electrolyzer, which produces hydrogen and oxygen form water. The hydrogen used the fuel for the PEMFC. Hydrogen may be produced and stored in high pressure tank by hydrogen gas booster system. Wind conditions are changing with time of day, season and year. So, wind power is a variable energy source. The main purpose with these WT-FC hybrid system is to store hydrogen by electrolysis of water when wind conditions are good and release the stored hydrog en to supply the fuelcell when wind is low.

This study was conducted to construct the soil bin system and associated microcomputer-based data acquisition system which is to be used for the effective evaluation of wheel performance. The soil bin system consists of four main parts; soil bin, carriage drive system, test carriage and soil processing carriage. The test carriage was constructed to measure the five performance parameters of testing wheels; pulling forte, motion resistance, sinkage and rotational speed of test wheel, and speed of test carriage. The test wheel is powered by a hydraulic system up to 8 ps. Soil processing carriage was designed to provide uniform test soil condition across the toil bin, and reproduction of soil conditions found satisfiable. The data acquisition system consists of APPLE II PLUS microcomputer, strain amplifier, I/O interface, A/D converter, digital counter and various transducers. It takes about 0.86 seconds to measure a set of performance parameters and store on the floppy disk simultaneously. Series of experiment showed that this system can be used effectively for evaluating the wheel performance associated with soil.

This paper deals with a 3-phase voltage disturbance generator for a performance test of custom power devices such as dynamic voltage restorers (DVR), dynamic uninterruptable power supplies (UPS), etc. The operating principle of the proposed circuit is described in each mode of voltage sag, swell, outage, and unbalance. The main components of the proposed disturbance generator are silicone controlled rectifier (SCR) thyristors, variable autotransformers, and transformers. Therefore, the disturbance generator can be implemented with a considerably low cost compared to the conventional pulse width modified (PWM) inverter and converter type generators. Furthermore, it has good features of high reliability with simple structure, high efficiency caused by no PWM switching of the SCR thyristors, and easy control with a wide variation range. To verify the validity of the proposed scheme, simulations and experiments are carried out.

In recent years, technology for storing a preliminary power or a surplus of photovoltaic energy is required. This technique, as well as store a preliminary energy and improve the reliability of the gird safety.

In this paper, design and control method ZVT Interleaved Bidirectional LDC(IB-LDC) for mild-hybrid electric vehicle is proposed. The IB-LDC is composed of interleaved buck and boost converters employing an auxiliary inductor and auxiliary capacitors to achieve zero-voltage-transition. Operating principle of IB-LDC according to operation mode is introduced and mathematically analyzed in buck and boost mode. Moreover, PFM and phase control are proposed to reduce circulating current for low power range. Passive components design such as main inductor, auxiliary inductor and capacitors is suggested, considering ZVT condition and maximizing efficiency. Furthermore, a 600W prototype of ZVT IB-LDC for MHEVs is built and tested to verify validity.

Direct current(DC) systems have recently attracted attention due to the increase in DC loads and distributed generations, such as renewable energy sources. Among these technologies, there has been much research into DC distribution systems or DC microgrids. Within this body of research, the main topics have been about optimum control and operation methods in terms of improving power efficiency. When DC systems are controlled and operated using power electronic devices such as converters, it is necessary to design and analyze them by considering the power electronics sections. For this reason, we propose a scalable DC system analysis algorithm, which considers various system configurations depending on the operating mode and location of the converter. The algorithm consists of power flow fault current calculations, and the results of the algorithm can be used for designing DC systems. The algorithm is implemented using MATLAB with defined input and output data. The verification of the algorithm is mainly performed using ETAP software, and the accuracy of the algorithm analysis can be confirmed through the results.
