The energy density, power density and ohm resistance of battery change significantly as results of battery aging, which lead to decrease in the accuracy of the equivalent model. A parameter identification method of the equivale6nt circuit model with 3 R-C branches based on the test database of battery life cycle is proposed in this paper. This database is built on the basis of experiments such as updating of available capacity, charging and discharging tests at different rates and relaxation characteristics tests. It can realize regular update and calibration of key parameters like SOH, so as to ensure the reliability of parameters identified. Taking SOH, SOC and T as independent variables, lookup table method is adopted to set initial value for the parameter matrix. Meanwhile, in order to ensure the validity of the model, the least square method based on variable forgetting factor is adopted for optimizing to complete the identification of equivalent model parameters. By comparing the simulation data with measured data for charging and discharging experiments of Li-ion battery, the effectiveness of the full life cycle database and the model are verified.

In wireless sensor network technology, which has been applied to various fields, the power supply and the power management of sensors are the most important issues. For this reason, a new concept of power supply and power management device is required. In this paper, we developed an autonomous independent power supply system that supplies the stable power to a sensor node without an additional external input by applying the energy harvesting technology using the electromagnetic induction principle by utilizing the current flowing in the transmission line. The proposed autonomous independent power supply system consists of a power supply using Power CT and a power management system including a charging circuit. The power management device uses a voltage limiter circuit and a monitoring circuit of charging voltage and current to ensure the safety of charging of the battery. In order to verify the performance of the proposed system, we applied it to the SVL diagnostic system and confirmed that it operates stably.

A reverse voltage commutating thyristor chopper was described. The chopper consists of commutating capacitor charging circuit and commutating thyristor. By superimposing the charged voltage on capacitor to load voltage. Powerful reverse voltage could be induced on main thyristor cathode. And in that wise the chopping action was performed without all the reactors of the proposed circuit. An energy recovery circuit was employed in the chopper circuit for recovering the energy that was consumed in main thyristor commutation. The operating principles of the chopper circuit was analyzed and experimental results were as following. I) All reactors were eliminated. ii) By applying energy recovery circuit to the chopper, 67% of the consumed energy was recovered to source. iii) Turn off time of the proposed chopper was derived as T=RC ln2.

A spacecraft power system can be divided into two types : DET system(Direct Energy Transfer system) and PPT system(Peak Power Tracking system). In a DET system employing the regulated bus voltage control method, the battery charger and discharger are widely used for the bus voltage regulation. The battery charger has two different modes of operation. One is the bus voltage regulation mode and the other is the charge current regulation mode. The battery discharger is employed to provide the power when the spacecraft is in the earth's shadow or the sun is eclipsed. The operating mode, charging or discharging, is selected by a power control circuit. In this paper, small-signal dynamic characteristics of battery charging and discharging system are analyzed to facilitate design of control loop for optimum performance. Control loop designs in various operating modes are discussed. Anaylses are verified through experiments.

In this paper, a single-stage alternating current (AC)-DC converter is proposed for the automated-guided vehicle wireless charging system. The proposed converter is capable of soft-switching under all input voltage (VAC: 220 Vrms ± 10%), load conditions (0-1 kW), and air gap changes (40-60 mm) by phase control at a fixed switching frequency. In addition, controlling a wide output voltage (Vo: 39~54 VDC) is possible by varying the link voltage and improving the input power factor and the total harmonic distortion factor. Experimental results were verified by making a prototype of a 1-kW wireless power charging system that operates with robustness to changes in air gaps.

A method for simulating general characteristics and temperature characteristics of discharging SCR of the capacitor discharge impulse magnetizer-magnetizing fixture system using SPICE is presented. This method has been developed which can aid the design, understanding and inexpensive, time-saving of magnetizing circuit. As the detailed characteristic of magnetizing circuit can be obtained, the efficient design of the magntizing circuit which produce desired magnet will be possible using our SPICE modeling. Especially, computation of the temperature rise of discharging SCR is very important since it gives some indication of thermal characteristic of discharging circuit. It is implemented on a 486 personal computer, and the modeling results are checked against experimental measures. The experimental results have been achived using 305[V] and 607[V] charging voltage, low-energy capacitor discharge impulse magnetizer-magnetizing fixture of air cleaner DC motor.

This study presents the experiment and simulation results on the magnetic field response and electrical stability behaviors of no-insulation (NI) and metal insulation with stainless steel tape (MI-SS) which wound in form of racetrack type coils. First of all, the structural design of the racetrack type bobbin was shown along with its parameters. Then, the current-voltage tests were carried out to measure the critical current of both test coils. Also, the sudden discharging and charging tests were performed in the steady state to estimate the decay field time and magnetic field response, respectively. Finally, the overcurrent tests were conducted in the transient state to investigate the electrical stability of these test coils. Based on the experimental results, the contact surface resistances were calculated and applied to the field coils (FCs) of 10-MW-class second generation high temperature superconducting generator (2G HTSG) used in wind offshore environment. The charging delay time and electrical stability for NI and MI-SS HTS FCs of 10-MW-class 2G HTSG are analyzed by the equivalent circuit model and the key parameters which were obtained from the electromagnetic finite element analysis results.
