This paper investigates control algorithms for a doubly fed induction generator with a back-to-back three-level neutral-point clamped voltage source converter in medium voltage wind power systems under unbalanced grid conditions. Three different control algorithms to compensate for unbalanced conditions have been investigated with respect to four performance factors; fault ride-through capability, instantaneous active power pulsation, harmonic distortions and torque pulsation. The control algorithm having a zero amplitude of torque ripple shows the most cost-effective performance concerning torque pulsation. The least active power pulsation is produced by the control algorithm that nullifies the oscillating component of the instantaneous stator active and reactive powers. A combination of these two control algorithms depending on the operating requirements and the depth of the grid unbalance presents the most optimized performance factors under generalized unbalanced operating conditions leading to high performance DFIG wind turbine systems.

This paper investigates the design of coupled inductor for minimum inductor current ripple in rapid traction battery charger systems. Based on the general circuit model of coupled inductor together with the operating principles of dc-dc converter, the relationship between the ripple size of inductor current and the coupling factor is derived under the different duty ratio. The optimal coupling factor which corresponds to a minimum inductor ripple current becomes -1, i.e. a complete inverse coupling without leakage inductance, as the steady-state duty ratio operating point approaches 0.5. In an opposite manner, the optimal coupling factor value of zero, i.e. zero mutual inductance, is required when the steady-state duty ratio operating point approaches either zero or one. Coupled inductors having optimal coupling factor can minimize the ripple current of inductor and battery current resulting in a reliable and efficient operation of battery chargers.

Characterization tests (load vs. displacement curve) are conducted for the springs of Zirconium alloy spacer grids for an advanced LWR fuel assembly. Twofold testing is employed: strap-based and assembly-based tests. The assembly-based test satisfies the in situ boundary conditions of the spring within the grid assembly. The aim of the characterization test via the aforementioned two methods is to establish an appropriate assembly-based test method that fulfills the actual boundary conditions. A characterization test under the spacer grid assembly boundary condition is also conducted to investigate the actual behavior of the spring in the core. The stiffness of the characteristic curve is smaller than that of the strap-wised boundary condition. This phenomenon may cause the strap slit condition. A spacer grid consists of horizontal and vertical straps. The strap slit positions are differentiated from each other. They affords examination of the variation of the external load distribution in the grid spring. Localized legions of high stress and their values are analyzed, as they may be affected by the spring shape. Through a comparison of the results of the test and FE analysis, it is concluded that the present assembly-based analysis model and procedure are reasonably well conducted and can be used for spring characterization in the core. Guidelines for improving the mechanical integrity of the spring are also discussed.

최근들어 국내외적으로 그리드에 대한 다양한 연구가 이루어지고 그리드 킬퓨팅 기술에 대한 상용화의 추세가 보이면서 그리드 시스템에 참여하는 엔티티의 수가 날로 증가하고 있다. 따라서 Globus에 기반한 그리드 환경에서의 기존의 LDAP 시스템은 늘어나는 부하를 처리하기에는 충분하지 못하게 되었고 제공할 수 있는 성능의 한계를 초과하고 있다. 이를 위여 고성능 그리드 환경에 부합되는 새로운 LDAP 시스템의 설계가 필수적이고 이를 위해서는 기존 LDAP 시스템에 대한 성능분석이 우선시 되어야 한다. 하지만 기존의 대부분의 연구는 읽기 동작이 대부분을 차지하는 기존의 응용들을 위한 성능향상에 목적을 두고 있어서 쓰기 동작이 대부분을 차지하는 그리드 환경에 적용하기에는 부적합하다. 본 논문에서는 기존 분산 디렉토리 시스템의 성능분석의 결과를 제시하며 이를 위하여 M/M/1 큐잉모델을 기초로 기존 분산 디렉토리 시스템에 대한 분석모델을 도출하고, 이 분석모델을 통한 성능분석의 결과를 제시한다. 본 논문의 목표는 이러한 성능분석의 결과를 바탕으로 고성능 그리드 환경에 부합되는 새로운 LDAP 시스템의 설계방향을 제시하고자 한다. 또한 이러한 결과들은 고성능 그리드 환경에서 LDAP 기반의 GIS 시스템의 설계에 기초자료 활용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

본 논문은 $20^{\circ}$ 각도의 굽힘과 50 ${\mu}m$ 인장조건에서 PGA (Pin Grid Array) 패키지의 lead pin에 발생하는 von Mises 응력과 전 변형률 에너지 밀도를 lead pin 소재의 열처리 온도 조건에 따라 유한요소법을 이용하여 해석하였다. 해석결과에 따르면 lead pin의 코너부와 리드핀의 헤드부와 솔더의 경계면이 국부적으로 응력이 집중되는 가장 취약한 위치이며 lead pin의 열처리 온도가 높을수록 발생하는 최대 응력과 변형률 에너지 밀도가 낮아져서 신뢰성이 우수한 것으로 판단된다. 또한 lead pin의 코너부에 라운드가공을 하면 헤드부와 솔더의 경계면에서 발생하는 von Mises 응력과 전변형률 에너지 밀도가 감소하였다. 이와 같은 해석결과는 전 변형률 에너지 밀도가 증가할수록 솔더의 피로수명이 감소하는 연구결과에 미루어볼 때 열처리를 통해 리드핀의 기계적특성을 변경하면 PGA 패키지의 신뢰성을 향상시킬 수 있음을 의미한다. 따라서, 리드핀의 형상최적화와 열처리를 통한 최적화된 소재특성을 통해 PGA 패키지의 신뢰성 향상이 요구된다.

In this paper, a design optimization of ball grid array packaging geometry is studied based on the Taguchi method, which allowed robust design by considering the variance of the input parameters during the optimization process. Molding compound and substrate were modeled as viscoelastic, and finite element analyses were performed to calculate the strain energy densities of the eutectic solder balls. Six quality factors of the dimensions of the packaging geometry were chosen as control factors. After performing noise experiments to determine the dominant factors, main experiments were conducted to find the optimum packaging geometry. Then the strain energy densities between the original and optimized geometries were compared. It was found that the effects of the packaging geometry on the solder ball reliability were significant, and more than 40% of the strain energy density was reduced by the geometry optimization.

This paper investigates the design of multi-winding coupled inductor for minimum inductor current ripple. Based on the general circuit model of coupled inductor together with the operating principles of dc-dc converter, the relationship between the ripple size of inductor current and the coupling factor is derived under the different duty ratio. The optimal coupling factor of n-phase multi-winding coupled inductor which corresponds to a minimum inductor ripple current becomes -(1/n-1), i.e. a complete inverse coupling without leakage inductance, as the duty ratio of steady-state operating point approaches 1/n, 2/n, ${\cdots}$ or (n-1)/n. In an opposite manner, the optimal coupling factor value of zero, i.e. zero mutual inductance, is required when the duty ratio of steady-state operating point approaches either zero or one. Therefore, coupled inductors having optimal coupling factor can minimize the ripple current of inductor and inductor size.

Wing flap deflection angles of a supersonic transport are optimized to improve transonic cruise performance. For this end, a numerical optimization method is adopted using a three-dimensional unstructured Euler code and a discrete adjoint code. Deflection angles of ten flaps; five for leading edge and five fur railing edge, are employed as design variables. The elliptic equation method is adopted for the interior grid modification during the design process. Interior grid sensitivities are neglected for efficiency. Also tested is the validity of the approximate gradient evaluation method for the present design problem and found that it is applicable for loading edge flap design in cases of no shock waves on the wing surface. The BFGS method is used to minimize the drag with constraints on the lift and upper surface Mach numbers. Two design examples are conducted; one is leading edge flap design, and the other is simultaneous design of leading edge and trailing edge flaps. The latter gave a smaller drag than the former by about two counts.

The on-grid distributed power system operated antiislanding due to the momently voltage sag of the power system, fault and etc. According to the 'Dispersed Generations in Distribution Systems Connection Technology Standard', the utilizable time ratio of PCS is low because of being put into in the steady state of the power system after 5 minutes. In this paper, the output characteristic is optimized with the hybrid system consisting of the wind system and PV system. And energy of hybrid system is supplied to the power system. Also, DVR function was applied to PCS to compensate the voltage sag frequently happening for a power system. The control performance of the proposed hybrid PCS is analyzed and simulated using PSIM to validate the system performace.
