The paper proposed a control strategy for flywheel energy/recovery system with induction machine at the dynamic UPS system using the flywheel stored mechanical energy. The performances for the vector controlled induction generator are compared with those for the induction generator using slip control method. The strategy to improve the transient responses for dc link capacitor voltage is suggested at the transition from the motoring mode to the generating mode. The strategy Proposed by the paper is verified with experiment results using 32bit DSP.

This paper deals with the configuration, operating principles, systematic calculation method of parameter and optimization method of test circuit for parallel current injection method, series voltage injection method and hybrid synthetic test method as the method for performance test of circuit breaker with extra high interrupting capacity.

We must consider resistance capacitance and their circuit connection condition for cable charging current test by IEC60265-1. According to their values and circuits, the ratio of applied voltage and transient recovery voltage are much different. This paper is convinced of TRV waves and proposes the optical circuit required at the standard via the simulation of all circuit conditions.

In this paper, a novel zero-voltage and zero-current switching (ZVZCS) interleaved two switch forward converter is proposed. By using a coupled-inductor-type smoothing filter, a snubber capacitor, the parallel capacitance of the leading switches and the transformer parasitic inductance, the proposed converter can realize soft-switching for the main power switches. This converter can effectively reduce the primary circulating current loss by using the coupled inductor and the snubber capacitor. Furthermore, this converter can reduce the reverse recovery loss, parasitic ringing and transient voltage stress in the secondary rectifier diodes caused by the leakage inductors of the transformer and the coupled inductance. The operation principle and steady state characteristics of the converter are analyzed according to the equivalent circuits in different operation modes. The practical effectiveness of the proposed converter was is illustrated by simulation and experimental results via a 500W, 100 kHz prototype using the power MOSFET.

We have investigated the two types of voltage-dependent outward potassium (K) currents, i.e. delayed rectifier K current ($I_{K(V)}$) and 'A-like' transient outward K current ($I_{to}$) with patch-clamp technique in single smooth muscle cells (SMCs) isolated from rabbit basilar artery, and investigated the characteristics of them. The time-courses of activation were well fitted by exponential function raised to second power ($n^2$) in $I_{K(V)}$ and fourth power ($n^4$) in $I_{to}$. The activation, inactivation and recovery time courses of $I_{to}$ were much faster than that of $I_{K(V)}$. The steady-state activation and inactivation of $I_{K(V)}$ was at the more hyperpolarized range than that of $I_{to}$ contrary to the reports in other vascular SMCs. Tetraethylammonium chloride (TEA; 10 mM) markedly inhibited $I_{K(V)}$ but little affected $I_{to}$. 4-Aminopyridine (4-AP) had similar inhibitory potency on both currents. While a low concentration of $Cd^{2+}$ (0.5 mM) shifted the current- voltage relationship of $I_{to}$ to the positive direction without change of maximum conductance, $Cd^{2+}$ did not cause any appreciable change for $I_{K(V)}$.

Migraine is a neurological disorder characterized by recurrent and disabling severe headaches. Although several anticonvulsant drugs that block voltagedependent $Na^+$ channels are widely used for migraine, far less is known about the therapeutic actions of carbamazepine on migraine. In the present study, therefore, we characterized the effects of carbamazepine on tetrodotoxin-resistant (TTX-R) $Na^+$ channels in acutely isolated rat dural afferent neurons, which were identified by the fluorescent dye DiI. The TTX-R $Na^+$ currents were measured in medium-sized DiIpositive neurons using the whole-cell patch clamp technique in the voltage-clamp mode. While carbamazepine had little effect on the peak amplitude of transient $Na^+$ currents, it strongly inhibited steady-state currents of transient as well as persistent $Na^+$ currents in a concentration-dependent manner. Carbamazepine had only minor effects on the voltage-activation relationship, the voltage-inactivation relationship, and the use-dependent inhibition of TTX-R $Na^+$ channels. However, carbamazepine changed the inactivation kinetics of TTX-R $Na^+$ channels, significantly accelerating the development of inactivation and delaying the recovery from inactivation. In the current-clamp mode, carbamazepine decreased the number of action potentials without changing the action potential threshold. Given that the sensitization of dural afferent neurons by inflammatory mediators triggers acute migraine headaches and that inflammatory mediators potentiate TTX-R $Na^+$ currents, the present results suggest that carbamazepine may be useful for the treatment of migraine headaches.

Transient inward current (TI) was studied by the two micro-electrode voltage clamp technique in the sinoatrial node of the rabbit. The author confirmed that in $10^{-6}$ M ouabain TI was found in the SA node and investigated the effects of ions, $(Na^+,\;K^+,\;Ca^{2+})$, $\beta-agonist$ (isoprenaline), local anesthetics (quinidine, lidocaine) and Ca-blockers ($Co^{2+}$, verapamil, diltiazem) on the TI recorded during depolarizing voltage clamp pulses to -40 and -20 mV. The results obtained were as follows ; 1) $10^{-6}M$ ouabain increased the frequency of sinus action potential and decreased the amplitude, especially overshoot of action potential. TI was induced by the depolarizing voltage clamp Pulses and the magnitude of the slow inward current (isi) decreased and the time course was slowed by the same depolarizing pulses. 2) 30% $Na^{+}$ and 24mM $K^+$ decreased by $10^{-6}M$ ouabain and 6 mM $Ca^{2+}$ and $10^{-7}M$ isoprenaline increased TI, $i_{si}$ and current oscillations. 3) Quinidine $(5\times10^{-7}M)$ reduced TI and $i_{si}$ but lidocaine $(10^6\;-10^5M)$ didn't reduced or increase TI. Current oscillations increased and isi decreased by lidocaine. 4) Ca-blockers decreased the amplitude and the frequency of sinus action potential. TI and $i_{si}$ decreased significantly but were not abolished completely at the concentrations used in this experiment. Verapamil and diltiazem had inhibitory action on TI in $2\times10^{-7}M$ concentration and showed very slow recovery after wasting out with normal Tyrode solution.

전기설비 중 차단기와 개폐기는 전기회로를 개폐하는 기기들이다. 차단기가 단락사고에 대한 주회로 보호가 목적이라면 개폐기는 건전회로의 개폐가 주요한 기능이다. 저압용 전자개폐기는 빈번한 개폐사용조건으로 인해 시험규격에서는 수천회에서 수만회까지 개폐시험을 통해 성능을 검 중하도록 되어 있고 배선용 차단기는 차단 시험과 개폐시험을 통해 성능을 검증하도록 규정되어 있다. 이 개폐시험 회로와 단락차단 시험회로는 규정된 전압, 전류, 역률조건을 맞추기 위해 저항과 리액터를 직렬 연결하여 구성한다. 개패시험과 단락차단시험을 진행하는 동안 시료 접점 사이에는 성능에 치명적인 과도한 회복전압이 발생한다. 따라서 규격에서는 과도회복전압을 적합한 수준으로 줄이기 위해 리액터 양단에 병렬로 고저항을 설치하도록 제안하고 있다.

주어진 조건 하에서 의도하는 기간 동안 요구된 기능을 적절하게 수행하기 위해서는 제품의 신뢰성 확보가 무엇보다도 중요하다. 신뢰성 확보를 위해서는 제품의 안전성 및 내구성에 대한 고려가 충분히 이루어져야 한다. 고빈도 개폐를 목적으로 사용되는 전자기 접촉기 또한 제품의 안전성 및 성능의 신뢰성이 중요한 제품이라 할 수 있다. 그래서 이를 검증하기 위한 전자기 접촉기의 부하개폐동작성능에 대한 평가가 중요한 시험항목으로 부각되고 있다. 그리고 개폐특성을 평가하기 위한 부하는 규정된 과도회복전압특성을 얻을 수 있도록 조정되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 부하측 중성점 접지 방식의 부하 회로 조정방법을 사용하여 전자기 접촉기의 개폐성능을 평가하기 위한 과도회복전압의 진동주파수와 진폭율의 특성을 고찰하였다.
