Single-phase, brushless DC (BLDC) motors have unequal air-gaps to eliminate the dead-point where the developed torque is zero. Unfortunately, these unequal air-gaps can deteriorate the motor characteristics in the cogging torque. This paper proposes a novel design for a single-phase BLDC motor with an asymmetric notch to solve this problem. In the design method, the asymmetric notches were placed on the stator pole face, which affects the change in permanent magnet shape or the residual flux density of the permanent magnet. Parametric analysis was performed to determine the optimal size and position of the asymmetric notch to reduce the cogging torque. Finite element analysis (FEA) was used to calculate the cogging torque. A more than 28% lower cogging torque compared to the initial model with no notch was achieved.

This paper proposes a technical requirements analysis of implementation of multi-trade prefabrication. Recently, there has been a rise in the use of prefabrication to minimize on-site work for time reduction to increase productivity. Prefabrication technique is evolved into multi-trade prefabrication combining other trades from single-trade prefabrication. For implementation of new technique, not only itself but complementary techniques have to be prepared. In this paper, MEP corridor rack, a major item of multi-trade prefabrication, was implemented in the test bed and its process was analyzed to find out technical requirements. As a result, comparatively high level of IT technique was required for efficient use of multi-trade prefabrication in design, lifting and construction phase. In design phase, component level of BIM library was needed for manufacturing; and in lifting phase, BIM-based site logistics process was required. Also in construction phase, laser scanning was implemented for gathering shape and geometry of the wall and slab that were attached to multi-trade prefabrication module.

This paper proposes the optimal design method based on NDZ analysis to secure the islanding defection ability and to maintain the stability and power quality when the grid is connected. A PSiM-based model and analysis of the system is presented, specialty aimed at improving the effectiveness of phase shift anti-islanding method with frequency feedback, which causes the inverter current to be generated slightly lower or higher in frequency than the frequency of the terminal voltage. The proposed method can cause frequency jump with leading and lagging phase of output current in two line cycles. As a result, the proposed algorithm is more sensitive and reliable than the conventional phase shift method. Experimental results, on a 3 kW inverter connected to 220 V, 60 Hz utility, are discussed.

Especially, demands for the noise reduction of mold transformer has been becoming an common issue because it has been used mainly at the residence area such as building and ship. So, this paper investigates the noise source and countermeasure of mold transformer radiated high noise abnormally. The result of impact hammering test for core of transformer ascertains the core resonance by harmonics of line frequency and high noise can be reduced to avoid core resonance by changing torque strength of tie rod. Magnetic field analysis is performed to identify the reason that noise of V-phase is higher than U and W-phase in the normal condition. It is the cause that flux density and magnetic force of V-phase is higher than the other phase respectively.

To enhance torque density by harmonic current injection, optimal slot/pole combinations for five-phase permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) with fractional-slot concentrated windings (FSCW) are chosen. The synchronous and the third harmonic winding factors are calculated for a series of slot/pole combinations. Two five-phase PMSM, with general FSCW (GFSCW) and modular stator FSCW (MFSCW), are analyzed and compared in detail, including the stator structures, star of slots diagrams, and MMF harmonic analysis based on the winding function theory. The analytical results are verified by finite element method, the torque characteristics and phase back-EMF are also taken into considerations. Results show that the MFSCW PMSM can produce higher average torque, while characterized by more MMF harmonic contents and larger ripple torque.

A new high performance liquid chromatograpgy (HPLC) stationary phase that possesses an internal carbonyl functional group is synthesized by heterogeneous "graft from" method. This new stationary phase, poly (vinyl octadecanoate) grafted silica (Sil-2) is then characterized by different physico-chemical methods such as diffuse reflectance infrared fourier transform, suspension state $^1H$ NMR, solid state $^{13}C$ CP/MAS NMR, $^{29}Si$ CP/MAS NMR, elemental analysis and thermogravimetric analysis. Chromatographic properties of Sil-2 were evaluated under reversed phase condition by separating polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and comparing the chromatographic results with those on polymeric as well as monomeric octadecylated silica stationary phases.

Using the existing exact but quite complicated symbol error rate (SER) expressions for M-ary phase shift keying (M-PSK) and M-ary differential phase shift keying (M-DPSK), we derive effective and concise closed-form asymptotic SER formulas especially in Rician-Nakagami fading channels. The derived formulas can be utilized to efficiently verify the achievable error rate performances of M-PSK and M-DPSK systems for the Rician-Nakagami fading environments. In addition, by exploiting the modulation gains directly obtained from the asymptotic SER formulas, we also theoretically demonstrate that M-DPSK suffers an asymptotic SER performance loss of 3.01dB with respect to M-PSK for a given M in Rician-Nakagami fading channels at high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).

This paper proposes and describes the design and operational principles of a three-phase three-level nine switch voltage source inverter. The proposed topology consists of three bi-directional switches inserted between the source and the full-bridge power switches of the classical three-phase inverter. As a result, a three-level output voltage waveform and a significant suppression of load harmonics contents are obtained at the inverter output. The harmonics content of the proposed multilevel inverter can be reduced by half compared with two-level inverters. A Fourier analysis of the output waveform is performed and the design is optimized to obtain the minimum total harmonic distortion. The full-bridge power switches of the classical three-phase inverter operate at the line frequency of 50Hz, while the auxiliary circuit switches operate at twice the line frequency. To validate the proposed topology, both simulation and analysis have been performed. In addition, a prototype has been designed, implemented and tested. Selected simulation and experimental results have been provided.

An induction motor can be controlled like a separately excited do motor by field oriented control(or vector control). In vector control, Because the transformation of the stator's 3-phase current into two orthogonal current is required. the control scheme is complicated. But, Yamamura proposed a field acceleration method(FAM) without the phase transformation. FAM simplify an implementation control scheme for induction motors. In this paper, the analysis of transient phenomena of a squirrel-cage induction motor was achieved by the spiral vector method and the phase segregation method. It simplified control schemes more than those of vector control.

Most single-Phase brushless DC (BLDC) motors have unequal air gap to eliminate the dead-point where the developed torque value is zero. However this partial increase of the air gap deteriorates the motor characteristics in cogging torque. Thus in this paper a new topology of unequal air gap is proposed to solve this problem. The topology is to use some pairs of equal or unequal air gaps. As a result, it is proved by the finite element analysis and experimental results that the single-Phase BLDC motor with the proposed air gap topology is very effective in reducing the cogging torque.
