This paper described the positioning algorithm of partial discharge in insulation oil by acoustic method for the application of an on-line diagnosis in oil-immersed transformers. In the experiment, five AE sensors having the resonant frequency of 150 kHz were used, and a signal conditioner was fabricated. A needle-plane electrode system which is composed of a needle with a curvature radius of $10{\mu}m$ and a plane electrode with a diameter of 60 mm was installed to simulate partial discharges in insulation oil. From the time difference of arrival (TOA) of acoustic signal, we calculated the location of partial discharge in insulation oil. In the experiment, an algorithm of positioning of PD occurrence by the time difference of arrival was proposed. From the experimental results, the positioning error of PD calculated by three AE sensors was within 4%.

This paper describes AC test for long delivered drum length of cable using pre-breakdown partial discharge detection(PPD) method, which can be applied to observe the causes of electrical breakdown of EHV XLPE insulation. This method is to de-energize applied voltage to cable rapidly using pre-breakdown partial discharge, and is able to prevent complete breakdown. By this effect, defects such as voids, metal particles and protrusion in cable can be observed clearly. AC resonant test set was used for PPD method. Localization of partial discharge was performed by time difference detection of the traveling wave. Accuracy of localization was 1% to the length of test cable. Through several experiments with XLPE cable, successful results of PPD method were obtained.

The resonant formation rates of muonic molecular ion dtr in the muon-catalyzed fusion are calculated in various fuel temperatures and densities. The elastic scattering cross sections between t$\mu$ and deuterons are obtained by making use of the partial wave method. The transition property of the excited compound molecule [(dt$\mu$)dee]＊ derived by the impulse approximation in the form of a bound-state form factor. The radiative, Auger, and collisional deexcitations are considered as the deexcitation mechanisms of the excited dt$\mu$, and each deexcitation width is calculated as well as back decay width. The resultant reaction widths are used to calculate the formation cross sections of resonant dt$\mu$. The resonant formation rates for dt$\mu$-d and dt$\mu$-t collisions are computed as functions of fuel temperature and density. The calculations show that the resonant formation rates increase with fuel densities and have the maximum values at the particular temperatures where the relative collision energies are equal to the resonant ones.

Power conversion system must be increased switching frequency in order to achieve a small size, a light weight and a low noise. However, the switches of converter are subjected to high switching power losses and switching stresses. As a result of those, the power system brings on a low efficiency. In this paper, the authors propose a DC-DC boost converter of high power by partial resonant switch method (PRSM). The switching devices in a proposed circuit are operated with soft switching and the control technique of those is simplified for switch to drive in constant duty cycle. The partial resonant circuit makes use of a inductor using step up and a condenser of loss-less snubber. Also the circuit has a merit which is taken to increase of efficiency, as it makes to a regeneration at input source of accumulated energy in snubber condenser without loss of snubber in conventional circuit. The result is that the switching loss is very low and the efficiency of system is high. The proposed converter is deemed the most suitable for high power applications where the power switching devices are used.

This paper is analyzed for DC-DC chopper performance of high efficiency added in electric isolation. The general converters of high efficiency are made that the power loss of the used switching devices is minimized. To achieve high efficiency system, the proposed chopper is constructed by using a partial resonant circuit. The control switches using in the chopper are operated with soft switching for a partial resonant method. The control switches are operated without increasing their voltage and current stresses by the soft switching technology. The result is that the switching loss is very low and the efficiency of chopper is high. And the proposed chopper is added in a electric isolation. When the power conversion system is required to electric isolation, the proposed chopper is adopted with system development of high efficiency. The soft switching operation and the system efficiency of the proposed chopper is verified by digital simulation and experimental results.

Based on the recently developed resonance scattering theory for elastic waves, a relationship between the stress components, which may be measured using ultrasonic transducers, of partial waves scattered from cylindrical fluid scatterer, cavity, and resonance scatterer has been derived. The computed resonance scattered stresses exhibit frequency behaviors similar to the corresponding scattering coefficients: particularly, abrupt changes in phase by 180°near the resonant frequencies. By studying the behavior of pressure in the fluid scatterer, the physics of the theory has been further understood. Using the method studied and developed in this paper, nondestructive characterization of fluid inclusions in elastic media is expected to become more reliable.

Switched Reluctance Motor is simple structure which used Accel/Decel application field because of cheap cost and High efficiency. For driving this motor, it is essential to need position sensor and driving converter. so, many topology and sensor have been studied untill now. Asymmetric Bridge Converter which has been known for the best control and efficiency is used chopping to control current of motor coil according to changing of motor speed. But this is embossed as a fault because it come to bring switching loss due to rapid switching frequency. In this paper, I applied to Soft Switching Mode by Partial Resonant Method to compensate these fault and to show the usabilityness of low switching device.
