This paper proposes a hybrid single carrier sinusoidal modulation suitable for multiphase multilevel inverters. Multiphase multilevel inverters are controlled by hybrid modulation to provide multiphase variable voltage and a variable frequency supply. The proposed modulation combines the benefits of fundamental frequency modulation and single carrier sinusoidal modulation (SC-SPWM) strategies. The main characteristics of hybrid modulation are a reduction in switching losses and improved harmonic performance. The proposed algorithm can be applied to cascaded multilevel inverter topologies. It has low computational complexity and it is suitable for hardware implementations. SC-SPWM and its base modulation design are implemented on a TMS320F2407 digital signal processor (DSP). A Complex Programmable Logic Device realizes the hybrid PWM algorithm and it is integrated with a DSP processor for hybrid SC-SPWM generation. The feasibility of this hybrid modulation is verified by spectral analysis, power loss analysis, simulation and experimental results.

본 논문에서는 CMOS image sensor(CIS)에서 사용될 수 있는 고 효율 charge pump를 제안하였다. 제안된 charge pump는 CIS의 동작 특성을 활용하여 switching loss 및 reversion loss를 최소화하여 고 효율 동작을 실현하였다. 즉, CIS 픽셀 동작 구간에 따라 local clock driver, 펌핑 커패시터, 그리고 charge 전달 switch의 크기를 역동적으로 조절함으로써 switching loss 를 최소화하였다. 또한, schmitt trigger를 채용한 tri-state local clock driver를 이용하여 non-overlapping 구간이 충분히 확보된 local clock을 공급할 수 있게 함으로써 reversion loss를 최소화하였다. 0.13-um CMOS 공정을 이용한 시뮬레이션 비교 결과, 제안된 charge pump는 구동 전류가 없는 조건에서 기존 구조에 비해 최대 49.1% 전력 소모를 개선하였으며, 구동 전류가 최대인 조건에서는 19.0% 전력 소모를 개선할 수 있었음을 확인하였다.

The comparison for the performance of heating systems, district heating and separate heating and power, is carried out in terms of energy consumption and environment on the basis of real operating data. The efficiency of boiler and the heat loss within the housing are assumed with reasonable manner due to the lack of reliable data regarding those quantities. The assessment for the established criteria of previous studies is performed and the new criteria for the analysis is proposed. It is shown that the district heating system is superior to the separate heating and power system from the point of view of reduction of energy use and environment improvement. The sensitivity study for those quantities with uncertainty such as the boiler efficiency and heat loss within the housing is carried out also and the reasons for the analysis results are discussed in detail.

This paper demonstrates a novel electrodynamic technique to remove particles from the wall of microchannels. Dielectrohporesis(DEP) is generated by applying alternating electric potentials to the interdigitated electrodes integrated at the bottom of the micro-channel. The proposed technique is applied to a general microfluidic channel as a feasibility test. To examine the wall loss reduction efficiency, 10 ${\mu}m$ diameter Polystyrene latexes(PSL) were supplied to the inlet of the device. Then, the concentration of collected particles through devices was measured. In the experiment for 10 ${\mu}m$ diameter PSL particles, the concentration of the injected particles was $174.25{\times}10^4$ particles/ml. However, the concentration of collected particles at the outlet was $52.25{\times}10^4$ particles/ml. Only 30 % of particles had arrived at the outlet and 70 % of particles had adhered to the wall of the microfluidic channel. By applying alternating electric potentials from 0 to 20 $V_{pp}$ at 3 MHz, the concentration of injected particles was 135.00${\times}10^4$ particles/ml, the concentration of collected particles was increased as $105.25{\times}10^4$ particles/ml at 20 $V_{pp}$ at the outlet. When the electric potential was 20 $V_{pp}$, the particle loss was decreased by 39 % (initial loss: 70 %, loss at 20 Vpp: 31 %) with 10 ${\mu}m$ particle. The particle loss was decreased along to the incensement of electric potentials and the enlargement of the diameter of particles. According to these measured results, it was confirmed that the proposal of using DEP technique could be a good candidate for particle loss reduction in micro-particle processing chip application. Moreover, it is expected that the proposed technique could enhance performance of microfluidic and biochip devices.

In this paper, a loss-minimization nonlinear torque control for Electrical Vehicle(EV) induction motors is proposed. To improve the efficiency of the induction motors, it is important to find the optimal flux reference that minimize power losses. The proposed optimal flux reference is derived using a power loss function that is constructed with stator resistance losses, rotor resistance losses and core losses. And the time-varying load torque and the rotor resistance variation are considered in the power loss function. An algorithm that identifying the load torque is used. The rotor flux observer is used to obtain an accurate flux value regardless of the rotor resistance variation. Simulation results show a significant reduction in energy losses.

This paper presents the double side PM synchronous motor/generator for core loss reduction in flywheel energy storage system. The use of double PM rotor causes the elimination of core loss in no-load state of machine. Because flywheel rotational speed is reduced by core loss, double PM rotor is very effective in flywheel system. This paper suggests two types of double side PM rotor, Halbach magnetized array and parallel magnetized array. And characteristic comparison according to thickness of rotor back core is performed.

The aim of this study was to conduct basic research on the development of a dual-clutch transmission(DCT) and automatic transmission for agricultural tractors. The DCT layout and the DCT simulation model were developed using commercial software. Power transmission efficiency of the DCT and component power loss were analyzed to verify the developed simulation model. Power loss analysis of the components was conducted according to previous studies and ISO(International Organization for Standardization) standards. The power transmission efficiency of the DCT simulation model was 68.4-91.5% according to the gear range. The power loss in the gear, bearing, and clutch DCT system components was 0.75-1.49 kW, 0.77-2.99 kW, and 5.24-10.52 kW, respectively. The developed simulation model not include the rear axle, differential gear, final reduction gear. Therefore actual power transmission efficiency of DCT will be decreased. In a future study, an actual DCT can be developed through the simulation model in this study, and optimization design of DCT can be possible by comparing simulation results and actual vehicle test.

Triple Active Bridge 컨버터의 경부하 조건에서의 효율 개선을 위해 브리지의 듀티와 위상을 동시에 변경하는 Dual Pulse Width Modulation(DPWM)기법을 적용하였다. 기존의 위상천이기법은 제어가 단순한 장점이 있으나 경부하 조건에서 효율이 급격히 감소하는 단점이 존재한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 DPWM 방식을 통해 경부하 조건의 효율 개선을 위한 각 브리지 듀티, 위상각을 분석하였고, 시뮬레이션을 통해 이를 검증하였다.

This paper presents electromagnetic interference(EMI) suppression method applied on the direct current(DC) motor driver for power tail gate control. EMI noise is generated by the fast switching of power devices connected to electric loads. It has become a matter of concern because of the vast increase in the number and sophistication of electronic system in automotive environment. The proposed EMI reduction method is based on the principle of reducing the transient speed of power devices by changing the parameters of the driver circuit related to the power MOSFET. In this paper, power losses were calculated by loss equations and thermal simulation was used to evaluate the effect on printed circuit board. Based on these results, the DC motor driver was fabricated and tested. The proposed method can help to design a DC motor driver which allows it to obtain an acceptable compromise between power losses and EMI.
