Modern trams with a super capacitor have gained a lot of attention in recent years due to its reliability, convenience, energy conservation and environmental friendliness. Because of its special charging characteristic, the traditional charging structure and control strategy cannot satisfy its charging requirements. This paper presents a new charging topology for fast charging modern trams with a super capacitor and it designs a controller using continuous control set model predictive control (CCS-MPC). There are three contributions in this paper. First, a new charging structure is designed and its mathematics model is derived. The cascade structure is adopted instead of the parallel structure to simplify the control process and to keep the rated power of the controllable part low. Second, a MPC control strategy is proposed to satisfy the charging characteristic. The optimal control signal can be obtained by solving the designed optimization problem. The optimal control signal is related to the discrete control action. In addition, mapping between the continuous control signal and the discrete control action is designed. Third, a semi-physical experimental platform is built to verify the proposed topology and control method. The simulation model and experiment platform are built to verify the correctness of the new structure and its control method. The results obtained show that the new topology can work effectively.

In this paper, an advanced charging strategy for improving the charging performance of the Li-ion polymer battery is proposed, which is based on the battery characteristic. Simulation results show that the proposed charging current pattern can improve the charging speed of battery in comparison with the standard CC-CV (constant current - constant voltage) charging strategy and the pulse-charging strategy.

In this paper, we studied the charging characteristics of high-capacity supercapacitor with high current for RF wireless charging system for smart phone charging. The dc output of the RF-DC receiver is connected to supercapacitor after which is connected to DC-DC converter for charging a smart phone. This configuration stably supplies voltage and current for charging it. Studies show that the higher charging current use, the rapidly shorter the charging time of supercapacitor is. The currents of 2A, 10A and 27A were used for charging supercapacitors. The charging time was measured for 3000F, 6000F, 12000F supercapacitors which is parallelly connected with 3000F supercapacitors.

본 연구에서는 초전도 전원장치의 비선형적인 충전특성을 이론적으로 해석하기 위해서 Radial Basis Function 뉴럴 네트워크를 적용하였으며 이를 바탕으로 초전도 부하 마그넷에 따른 충전특성의 경향을 해석하였다. 본 논문에서는 안정적인 충전전류를 발생시키고 충전전류를 쉽게 제어할 수 있는 리니어형 초전도 전원장치를 개발하였고, 극저온 시스템에서 충전전류 특성을 실험적으로 수행하였다. 이를 통해 초전도 전원장치는 초전도 선재(초전도 Nb 박막)를 사용하기 때문에 비선형적인 충전전류 특성을 가짐을 알 수 있었다. 일반적으로, 극저온에서의 실질적인 실험에 있어서 주변 환경에 따른 냉각 비용 문제 등이 대두되기 때문에 다양한 실험을 수행하는데 연구의 어려움이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 개발된 초전도 전원장치의 주파수에 대한 비선형적인 충전 특성을 기반으로 지능형 알고리즘인 RBF 뉴럴 네트워크를 통해서 그 결과를 예측하고 이에 대해서 지능 모델을 구현하였다. 본 논문에서 사용된 RBF 뉴럴 네트워크에서는 효율적인 데이터 처리를 위해서 은닉층에 FCM 클러스터링 알고리즘을 사용하였으며, 클러스터의 수가 모델의 은닉층에서의 노드의 수가 되도록 설계하였다.

We already fabricated a proto-type HTS charging system with photovoltaic (PV) system and obtained design parameters for DC converter and HTS charging system. In order to develop the real scale charging system efficiently, we suggested a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) controller using a perturb and observe (P&O) MPPT algorithm for PV system. In this paper, we designed and simulated the MPPT controller for the real scale HTS charging system. As well as, the PV module has been analyzed by solving solar cell equivalent equations. The simulated and theoretical results presented here are being considered the next study which addresses the design and fabrication parameters.

The low normal zone propagation velocity (NZPV) of high-temperature superconducting (HTS) tape leads to a quench protection problem in HTS magnet applications. To overcome this limitation, various studies were conducted on HTS coils without turn-to-turn insulation (NI coils) that can achieve self-protection. On the other hand, NI coils have some disadvantages such as slow charging and discharging time. Previously, the HTS coils with turn-to-turn insulation (INS coils) were operated in power supply (PS) driven mode, which requires physical contact with the external PS at room-temperature, not in persistent current mode. When a quench occurs in INS coils, the low NZPV delays quench detection and protection, thereby damaging the coils. However, the rotary HTS flux pump supplies the DC voltage to the superconducting circuit with INS coils in a non-contact manner, which causes the INS coils to operate in a persistent current mode, while enabling quench protection. In this paper, a new protection characteristic of HTS coils is investigated with INS coils charging through the rotary HTS flux pump. To experimentally verify the quench protection characteristic of the INS coil, we investigated the current magnitude of the superconducting circuit through a quench, which was intentionally generated by thermal disturbances in the INS coil under charging or steady state. Our results confirmed the protection characteristic of INS coils using a rotary HTS flux pump.

본 논문에서는 제안하는 계단충전방식에서는 직렬로 연결된 전지에 있어서 각 전지의 $\Delta$V=0 시점이 서로 다름을 고려하여 각 전지별로 선택적으로 충전단계를 절환시킴으로써 과충전 또는 부족충전을 예방할 수 있도록 하였다. 또한, 각 단계의 초기에 전지간의 잔존용량의 불균등을 해소하기 위해 시분할 균등충전모드를 추가하였다. 기존의 계단충전방식에 비해 선택적 충전단계절환을 위한 간단한 회로가 추가되지만 과충전과 부족충전을 예방하므로 전지수명과 충전효율을 개선시킬 수 있다.

In recent years, the Thin Film Transistor Liquid Crystal Display (TFT-LCD) is used in a variety of products as an interfacing device between human and them. Since TFT-LCDs have trend toward larger Panel sizes and higher spatial and/or gray-scale resolution, pixel charging characteristic is very important for the large panel size and high resolution TFT-LCD pixel characteristics. In this paper, both data line precharging method and line time extension (LiTEX) method is applied to Pixel Design Array Simulation Tool (PDAST) and the pixel charging characteristics of TFT-LCD array were simulated, which were compared with the results calculated by both PDAST In which the conventional device model of a-Si TFTs and gate step method is implemented.

In this study, we found out charged particle's deposition characteristic by experiments of $0.5{\mu}m$, $1.0{\mu}m$, $3.0{\mu}m$ size particle's concentration decay. We carried out the experiments on charged particle deposition onto the vertical cleanroom wall panel and some other fundamental experiments. The particle deposition mechanism is consist of sedimentation, convection, diffusion, thermophoresis, electrostatic and so on. Particle size determines mainly working deposition mechanism. The charged particle is made with corona discharge that are constituted field charging and diffusion charging. In addition, this combinational mechanism is called combined charging. The type of corona discharge determines quantity of particle electrical charge. In conclusion, we assumed that quantity of particle electrical charge accelerations deposition velocity onto the vertical cleanroom wall panel and proved it. And we figured out particle's deposition characteristic through compared between our experiment's results.

The aim of this general remarks is to introduce the results concerning the thermo physical, charging, developing and fusing characteristics of micro-encapsulated (MC) model toners in order to apply to the toner of electrophotographic system at the condition of a low temperature. In order to clarify the fusing mechanism of MC toner, rheological analysis of the toner was chosen. It was suggested that MC toner had a different fusing mechanism compared with non-MC toner. Some kinds of MC model toners showed a good result on adhesion test as well as cohesion test. Also, it was possible to get the good charging and development characteristic of MC toner for printing test with laser printer.
