Power steering systems play an important role for the vehicle handling characteristics and driver's steering center feeling during straightforward driving situation. In this paper, the rotary valve, the main component of power steering systems, is modeled and analyzed, and is combined with a 3-DOF(degree of freedom) lateral dynamics model of passenger cars to examine the effects of design parameters on the vehicle steering characteristics. The results can be applied to the development of advanced power steering systems for passenger cars such as electronically-con-trolled power steering system.

Hydraulic power shifting systems of hydraulic travel motor may be far safer than mechanical power transmission systems. Thus, hydraulic power shifting systems are widely used for speed control on the hydraulic equipments. In the case of liquid shifting lines, the rapid change of area, such as valve closing, can result in a large pressure transient. It is necessary to assure proper control method in order to obtain the smallest shift shock. This study conducts the shock characteristics of hydraulic power shifting system of the hydraulic travel motor. Experimental results show that shock pressure depends on the operating pressure, flow rate and pipe line area. The shock characteristics can be applied for reducing shocks.

Frequent breakdowns of power tiller, particularly in the peak labor constraints, have been a cause of decreasing machine productivity and its efficient utilization. To keep power tiller always ready to work, it may be necessary to identify the failure characteristics of some major parts of power tiller, and to have those parts replaced accordingly before they show the symptom of mulfunction. This study was conducted to identify the failure characteristics of some major parts of power tiller and to estimate their lives (MTBF) using a Weibull distribution function. The result showed that about half of breakdowns currently being occurred may be reduced through timely replacement of those part having wearout failure characteristics.

Reactive power support is considered to be necessary for dealing with a voltage stability issue with wind turbine system employing squirrel-cage induction generator(SCIG). This paper analyses steady-state characteristics of the SCIG wind turbine system by simulating torque-slip characteristics of SCIG with respect to variations of interconnecting network strength and generator terminal voltage. It also presents dynamics analysis of SCIG wind turbine system on Simulink to investigate the impact of static var compensator(SVC) and static synchronous compensator(STATCOM) on transient stability enhancement. It analysed transient stability with varying fault duration times and compared the transient stability characteristics with varying rated capacities of SVC and STATCOM. It is shown that the STATCOM has a better performance and reactive power support compared to SVC.

The series connection of power switching semiconductor elements is essential when a high voltage converter is made, so researches are being conducted to further develop this technology. In the series connection of power switching semiconductor elements, the main problem is that simultaneous conduction at turn-on and simultaneous blocking at turn-off together with voltage balancing are unattainable because of the difference of their switching characteristics. In this paper a novel series connection algorithm is proposed, which can implement not only the synchronization of the points of turn-on and turn-off time but the dynamic voltage balancing in spite of the difference of each switching characteristics. The proposed method is that the compensated control signal is attained from the voltage feedback signal and applied to the series-connected power transistors independently. Computer simulation and experimental results verify its validity.

IGCT devices is a superior devices for power conversion purpose. The basic structure of the IGCT devices is same as that of GTO thyristor. This makes the blocking voltage higher and controllable on-state current higher. In this paper, we present static and dynamic characteristics of 4.5 kV PT-type IGCT devices as a function of minority carrier lifetime, n-base thickness and n-buffer thickness. We should choose proper structural parameters for good electrical characteristics of GCT devices.

The high frequency pulsed power system is widely available for use in high frequency generator applications. We designed and fabricated our own high frequency pulsed power system to obtain very sort pulse width and high peak value and investigated microbe removal characteristics using it. This paper introduces a simple high voltage high frequency pulsed power system for removing various bacteria caused by dirty water. This system include power supply circuit, switching MOSFET, and flyback converter. We can also control the switching using a PIC one chip microprocessor. As a result, we can obtain good removing characteristics of various bacteria by adjusting the charging voltage, the pulse repetition rate and the electrical field inducing time.

This paper shows the development of current sensor for the measurement of hundreds of nanoseconds large current in pulsed power and its characteristics evaluation. The developed current sensor was designed for measuring induced voltage from magnetic flux under the operation of pulsed power. Output characteristics of developed current sensor was good consistent with commercial one, and the realistic current of fast pulsed power was detected easily with the calibration curve using output voltage of developed sensor. Therefore, the developed current sensor is possible to apply the realistic system.

As the spreading speed of electric vehicles increases rapidly, those are expected to be able to use them as flexible resources in the power system beyond the concern for the supply of its charging power. Especially when the Renewable Energy sources (RES) which have no intrinsic control capability have replaced the synchronous generators more and more, the power system needs to secure the additional frequency control resources to ensure its stability. However, the feasibility of using electric vehicles as the frequency control resources should be analyzed from the perspective of the power system operation and it requires the existing simulation frameworks for the power system. Therefore, this paper proposes the grid connected modeling of the primary frequency control provided by electric vehicles which can be integrated into the existing power system model. In addition, the proposed model is implemented considering technical performances constrained by the characteristics of the Vehicle-Grid Integration (VGI) system so that the simulation results can be accepted by the power utilities operating the power system conservatively.
