In large vessels, proper water level must be maintained with a balance for right and left equilibrium by absorbing or draining sea water in ballast water tank. However, this ship's ballast-water can be drained marine organisms to local sea area by world trade and this can be a source of ecological disturb. In order to solve these problems, marine organisms must be removed in accordance with the international covenant for the emission of microorganisms. By this reason, the seawater electrolysis rectifier of low-voltage high-current rectifiers with excellent ability for microbial treatment is required. In this paper, PSFB converter will be discussed for the seawater electrolysis rectifier. Furthermore, a new output control method with the power limit operation under the limited maximum voltage condition is proposed for this rectifier. The simulation for the proposed current control method for PSFB Converter is shown using MATLAB/SIMULINK. Finally the usefulness of the proposed control method is presented by the experimental results.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of design parameters of modulating valve and hydraulic clutch on the shift quality of a power shuttle transmission using a computer simulation. Computer simulation models of a hydraulic control system and a power shuttle drive train were developed and verified by an experimental power train in a laboratory. The software EASY5 was used for the modeling and simulation of the power shuttle transmission. Results of the study were summarized as follows: For a good shift quality. it is required to reduce the transient torque transmitted to the output shaft of the transmission as much as possible. This may be achieved by reducing the modulating time and clutch pressure. It was found that the design parameters most significantly affecting the modulating time and clutch pressure were the spring constant and displacement of a load piston of the modulating valve, and the spring constant and damping of the clutch piston. The modulating time decreased as the spring constant increased and increased as the displacement of the load piston decreased. The transient torque decreased as the modulating time increased. However their relationships were not always linear. As the damping decreased, both the modulating pressure and time decreased, which also resulted in a decrease in the transient torque. The spring constant of the clutch piston affected the modulating time and the peak transient torque. As the spring constant of the clutch increased, the peak transient torque decreased.

The frequency power control method (FCM) which has a wide operating frequency range is adopted for induction heating (IH) cooktops. When FCM is applied to the full-bridge series resonant converter (FB-SRC) based IH system, high-frequency switching of the inverter is required compared to the half-bridge SRC (HB-SRC)-based IH system. Therefore, the switching loss of the inverter increases, and applying FCM under the condition that the inverter operating frequency range is limited is difficult. Therefore, this paper proposes a control strategy with the phase shift power control method considering that limited frequency conditions are presented. Loss analysis following the control method is performed through simulation and mathematical analysis. In addition, the validity of the proposed control strategy is verified by analyzing the heating performance following the control method through the test results of the 3,200[W] prototype.

As a shift control of automatic transmission was managed with the electronic control unit (ECU), shift quality which is a measure of shift shock during gear change has markedly improved. However, the initial clutch pressure control of the clutch filling phase should continue to rely on the predetermined control input since the input and output speeds are unchanged until the shifting process attains the inertia phase. It is critical to minimize the clutch response time and control the clutch pressure accurately at the end of clutch fill to achieve quick shift response and smoothness. Advanced transmission companies have adopted an auto calibration method which establishes the databases for the clutch piston fill-up attributes and the frictional characteristics of the disks. In this study, a distinctive auto calibration algorithm for forklift transmission under development is proposed and verified with the real-vehicle test. The experimental calibration results showed consistent turbine dynamics at the initial stage of shifts with the properly calibrated clutch-fill control parameters. By using this technique, it is necessary to finalize the shift control for the various operation conditions.

The natural frequency shift under cyclic environmental loads is a key issue in the design of monopile-based offshore wind power turbines because of their dynamic sensitivity. Existing evidence reveals that the natural frequency shift of the turbine system in sand is related to the varying foundation stiffness, which is caused by soil deformation around the monopile under cyclic loads. Therefore, it is an urgent need to investigate the effect of soil deformation on the system frequency. In the present paper, three generalized geometric models that can describe soil deformation under two-way cyclic loads are proposed. On this basis, the cycling-induced changes in soil parameters around the monopile are quantified. A theoretical approach considering three-spring foundation stiffness is employed to calculate the natural frequency during cycling. Further, a parametric study is conducted to describe and evaluate the frequency shift characteristics of the system under different conditions of sand relative density, pile slenderness ratio and pile-soil relative stiffness. The results indicate that the frequency shift trends are mainly affected by the pile-soil relative stiffness. Following the relevant conclusions, a design optimization is proposed to avoid resonance of the monopile-based wind turbines during their service life.

Inverter configurations for multiple-load induction cooking applications need development. Inverter configurations for induction cooking applications are used in home appliances based on single coil inverters. For multiple-load configurations, multiple coils are used. They require proper inverters, which provide independent control for each load and have fewer components. This paper presents a three-leg inverter configuration for three load induction cooking applications. Each induction coil powers one induction cooking load. This configuration operates with constant switching frequency and powers individual loads. The output power of the required load is controlled with a phase-shift control technique. This configuration is simulated and experimentally tested with three induction loads. The simulation and experimental results are in good agreement. This configuration can be extended to more loads.

A new output inductor less phase shift full bridge converter with current reduction technique for server power application is proposed in this paper. The proposed converter can reduce the current stress by using the auxiliary circuit. Since the auxiliary circuit causes the additional resonance between the leakage inductor and auxiliary capacitor before the powering period, the proposed converter has lower current stress even no output filter inductor. Small size and circulating energy can be also the merits of the proposed converter. The operational principles and analysis are presented. Experimental results demonstrate that the current stress can be reduced effectively by using the auxiliary circuit without large output filter inductor.

This paper introduce the technology of peak demand reduction using automatic water tank pumping system on the apartment. That systems on the apartments installed water tank can control pumping(electricity) demand. Generally, system peak demand is occurred at the same time on workday and many water pumps consume electric power randomly. At this point, shift of operating time of water pump can reduce peak demand using automatic water tank pumping system. We were operating this system on some apartments for test of effect of peak demand reduction. and we represent result of demand shift. This result suggests that spread of the automatic water pumping system can contribute to reduce system peak demand and reduce system operation cost.
