In this paper, a series of electromagnetic analyses carried out for a high efficiency 22.9/0.38kV mold transformer are presented. The simulations were performed in order to calculate the losses which eventually verify the performance(efficiency) of the designed product. Here, losses include core loss, stray losses of non-current carrying metallic structural parts(core plate and clamp), ohmic loss and eddy current loss of current carrying metallic parts(busbars, leads, terminals and windings). The obtained results of the simulations were compared to the test results and showed high level of accuracy. The loss evaluation technology will allow designers avoid any potential over-design or under-design of the high efficiency products, reducing the manufacture cost and development period compared to the conventional experience-based design procedures.

Performance enhancement of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) is investigated in a device structure of ITO/TPD/Alq₃/LiF/Al and ITO/TPD/Alq₃/BCP/LiF/Al. Here, bathocuproine (BCP) is used as an electron-transport layer. Current density-voltage-luminance characteristics of the OLEDs show that the performance of the device is better with BCP layer than without BCP layer. The current density, luminance, luminous efficiency, and external-quantum efficiency are improved by approximately 22%, 50%, 2%, and 18%, respectively. Since the BCP layer lowers the electron energy barrier, electron transport is facilitated and the movement of hole is blocked as the applied voltage increases. This results in an increased recombination rate of holes and electrons.

We have fabricated simple triple-layer blue-emitting phosphorescent organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) using different thicknesses of N,N'-dicarbazolyl-3,5-benzene (mCP) host layers doped with bis[(4,6-di-fluorophenyl)-pyridinate-N,$C^{2'}$]picolmate (FIrpic) guest materials. The thicknesses of mCP:FIrpic layers were 5, 10, and 30 nm. Driving voltage, current and power efficiencies were investigated. The current efficiency was higher in the 10 nm thick mCP:FIrpic device, resulting from the better electron-hole balance. The device with 10 nm mCP:FIrpic layer exhibited the maximum current efficiency of 22.5 cd/A and power efficiency of 7.4 lm/W at a luminance of 1000 cd/$m^2$.

Chloride plating solution was fabricated by dissolving metal Ni powders in solution with HCl and deionized water. Effects of deposition conditions on the properties of Ni films electrodeposited from chloride baths were studied. Current efficiency of Ni films electrodeposited from the baths containing saccharin was decreased with increasing the current density. Residual stress of Ni thin films ware measured to be about 230 ~ 435 MPa in the range of current density of $10{\sim}25mA/cm^2$. Cathode current efficiency in baths without saccharin was initially increased with increasing pH, while it was decreased with increasing pH further. Cathode current efficiency in baths with saccharin (except at pH 2) exhibited less 10 ~ 20% than that in baths without saccharin. Residual stress of Ni films electrodeposited from baths without saccharin was measured to be 388 ~ 473 MPa in the range of pH 2 ~ pH 5 and then was increased to 551 MPa at pH 6. On the other hand, residual stress of Ni films electrodeposited from baths with saccharin was increased with increasing pH. Surface morphology was strongly affected by the change of current density, but slightly by solution pH and addition of saccharin.

This paper proposes an optimal current control method for improving efficiency of Brushless Direct Current (BLDC) motor. The proposed optimal current control method is based on the maximum torque point analysis of Finite Element Analysis (FEA). The proposed method can increase the effective voltage at the maximum torque point of BLDC motor and increase the output torque per unit current to increase the efficiency. In order to verify the proposed optimal current control method, have developed the prototype of a 50 [W] class motor drive and experimented by 20 [W] motor using the dynamometer set. This was verified.

A performance analysis of a SOFC/MGT hybrid system has been carried out for concept design. Thermo-dynamic models for each component being able to describe electrochemical characteristics and heat and mate-rial balance are proposed. Estimated is the power capacity of a SOFC suitable for the hybrid operation with a 5kW class MGT. Effects of current density and operating pressure are also investigated. Electric efficiency showed weak dependence on operating pressure and current density. It is desirable that the SOFC operates at high current density in manufacturing cost's point of view though operating with high current density slightly decreases the electric efficiency find specific power.

Efficiency of Multi D.O.F spherical motor is one of the important performance indicators. So Through the reduction of eddy current loss on how to improve the efficiency were studied. Stator iron core's material with high permeability and resistivity of material using the eddy current loss was reduced. However, it was the disadvantages of production and economic. For these reasons, prevent eddy current loss of the iron core of multi D.O.F spherical motor as a viable alternative to motor using rotor with double-air gap.

This paper presents an implementation of efficiency optimization of reluctance synchronous motor (RSM) using a neural network (NN) with a direct torque control (DTC). The equipment circuit considered with iron losses in RSM is analyzed theoretically, and the optimal current ratio between torque current and exiting current component are derived analytically. For the RSM driver, torque dynamic can be maintained with DTC using TMS320F2812 DSP Controller even with controlling the flux level because a torque is directly proportional to the stator current unlike induction motor. In order to drive RSM at maximum efficiency and good dynamics response, the Backpropagation Neural Network is adapted. The experimental results are presented to validate the applicability of the proposed method. The developed control system show high efficiency and good dynamic response features with 1.0 [kW] RSM having 2.57 inductance ratio of d/q.

Previous AC/DC PFC Boost Converter perceives feed forward signal of input and feedback signal of output for average current-mode control. Previous Boost Converter, the quantity of input current will be decreased by the decrease of output current in light load, and also power factor comes to be decreased. Also the efficiency of converter will be decreased by the decrease of power factor. The proposed converter presents the good PFC(Power Factor Correction), low line current hormonic distortions and tight output voltage regulations using non-dissipative snubber. The proposed converter also has a high efficiency by non-dissipative snubber circuit. To show the superiority of this converter is verified through the experiment with a 640W, 100kHz prototype converter.

This study was performed to investigate the electro-chemical-machining (ECM) characteristic of Ni-Ti Shape Memory Alloy (SMA). From the experimental results, we could gain optimal electro-chemical conditions to bound with lesser machining effect and better surface roughness than any other machining methods to workpiece at the same time. At these conditions, current efficiency was, for especially ECM working of Ni-Ti SMA, approximately 100% and high frequency pulse current was detected.
