  • In the case of a motor system that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy, the region of the motor and that of the generator coexists. In the case of an escalator, the ascending escalator is operated by the motor, whereas the descending escalator is operated by the generator according to the load. To evaluate the proposed method, this study reduces the power of the ascending escalator up to approximately 35% by sharing the regeneration power of the descending escalator. The loss of transfer power nearly exists in the case of the proposed method. Furthermore, the lifetime of the DC link condenser can be extended because it is connected in parallel, thus leading to a twofold increase in capacity.

  • The air-cooled waterwheel generator has a fan connected to waterwheel shaft or motor driven fan or fans. The fans are operated at constant speed, constant input, regardless of generator loss which is varied according to generator output and coolant the perature. Energy savings may he possible if the cooling air flow is controlled according to generato output and air temperature depending on season. The simulation and experience have been done on the 22.6 KVA Waterwheel generator by using AC variable speed drive. The results gave us los cut of generator.

  • In this research a 2-dimensional motion generator composed of two linear motors was developed. The inertia, damping and/or stiffness characteristics of the motion generator can be changed on the real-time basis by properly regulating the force generated by the linear motors. That is, active impedance is implemented without actual change in the physical structure of the motion generator. Control of the motor force is carried out by controlling the input currents supplied to the linear motors based on the combination of the PI controller and feedforward controller. This motion generator can be used to measure a kinesthetic sense associated with the human arm and thus to develop the products for which the kinesthetic sense is taken into account.

  • This paper describes the improvement of the arithmetic for emergency generator capacity. This formula which calculates emergency generator is dependent on the Korean Design Standard of building electrical equipment issued by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, and the technical data related to the generator. when appling the formula, the capacity of the generator is insufficient at the starting conditions of the load facility. In case of emergency, the generator is not operated normally. $PG_2$ of the formula ($PG_1$, $PG_2$, $PG_3$) applied in determining the capacity of the emergency generator is selected by calculating the capacity of the generator based on only biggest one motor among the load equipment and $PG_3$ may not be able to start the generator normally in case of emergency because there is an error such that the power factor is applied at the last start of the motor having the maximum capacity of the load. We analyze the problem of capacity calculation of emergency generators used for general purposes. As a consequence, the improved formulas have been presented for safety of electrical installation.

  • In agricultural systems, significant amount of energy is consumed during irrigation periods. Therefore operating irrigation systems with electrical energy produced by solar energy is very important. It is be possible to operate irrigation systems which have small-pump power like drip-irrigation with electrical energy produced by solar energy. Electrical energy produced by photovoltaic panels can vary from the estimated value due to environmental factors. Consequently analysis of a real system's performance is important. Thus, more correct projections can be made for the systems which will be designed. In this study, induction motor-pump mechanism for drip-irrigation system is operated with photovoltaic generator. Solar energy capacity of the established system is evaluated by measurements in irrigation periods. By means of simulations, power values produced by system and gained from the actual system are compared. Additionally the performance of induction motor is analyzed with the help of the driver system that increases the efficiency and controls the motor. As regards of results, design values of the drip-irrigation systems fed with solar energy in Southeastern Anatolian Regions of Turkey are obtained. Performance results of induction motor controlled with driver are also provided.

  • A 500Wh class high-speed Flywheel Energy Storage System (FESS) driven by a built-in BLDC motor/generator has been designed, which runs from 30000 to 60000rpm nominally. Due to the motor/generator inside, the flywheel rotor made of composites supported by PM/EM hybrid bearing system has a shape of bell or pendulum and thus requires accurate rotordynamic analysis and prediction of its dynamic behavior to secure the operating reliability. Rotordynamic analyses of the flywheel rotor-bearing system revealed that the bell shaped rotor has two conical rigid-body modes in the system operating range and the first conical mode, of which nodal point lies in the radial EM bearing position, can adversely affect the dynamic response of the rotor at the corresponding critical speed. To eliminate the possibility of wild behavior of the rotor, two guide bearings are adopted at the upper end of the rotor and motor/generator. It was also revealed that the EM bearing stiffness if 0.5~1.0E+6 N/m and damping of 2000 Ns/m are favirable for smooth operation of the system around the 2nd critical speed.
