The capability of pilot injection with small fuel quantity at all engine operating conditions is one of the main feature of the common rail system. The purpose of the pilot injection is to lower the engine noise and to reduce the NOx emissions. This study describes the pilot spray structure characteristics of the common-rail diesel injectors, solenoid-driven and piezo-driven type, with different electric driving characteristics So, three common-rail injectors with different electric current wave were used in this study. The pilot spray characteristics such as spray speed, spray tip penetration, and spray angle were obtained by spray images, which is measured by the back diffusion light illumination method with optical system for high-speed temporal photography. Also the CFD analysis was carried out for fuel behavior under high pressure in between needle and nozzle of solenoid-driven injector to know the condition of initial injection at experiment test. It was found that pilot injection of common-rail system was effected by rate of injection and temperature of injected fuel and electrical characteristic of the driven injector.

Recently, there has been increased interest in the study of multiphase machines due to their higher fault-tolerant capability when compared to their conventional three-phase counterparts. For six-phase machines, stator windings configured with a single isolated neutral (1N) provide significantly more post-fault torque/power than two isolated neutrals (2N). Hence, this configuration is preferred in applications where post-fault performance is critical. It is well known that min-max injection has been commonly used for three-phase and multiphase machines in healthy condition to maximize the modulation limit. However, there is a lack of discussion on min-max injection for post-fault condition. Furthermore, the effects in terms of the common-mode voltage (CMV) in modulating signals has not been discussed. This paper investigates the effect of min-max injection in post fault-tolerant control on the voltage and speed limit of a symmetrical six-phase induction machine with single isolated neutral. It is shown that the min-max injection can minimize the amplitude of reference voltage, which maximizes the modulation index and post-fault speed of the machine. This in turn results in a higher post-fault power.

The position of the gate is one of the important factors for optimal injection molding. This is because inappropriate gate positions cannot fill the cavity uniformly, which can lead to defects such as contraction. In this study, CAE was performed on hot runner injection molding of the washing machine base and plasticity was compared by changing gate position from existing gate position. A total of two alternatives have been applied to compare the plasticity of the washing machine base according to its optimal gate position. The gate position of the improved molds and the gate position of the current mold is analyzed by injection molding analysis. The results of the fill time, the pressure at V/P switchover, clamping force, and deflection were compared. In washing machine base injection molding, the deflection was reduced by about 3.76% in the improved mold 2. In improved mold 1, the fill time during injection molding was reduced by 3.32% to enable uniform charging, and the clamping force was reduced by 31.24%. We have confirmed that the position of the gate can change the charging pressure and the clamping force and affect the quality and cost savings of the molded product.

In a power grid that has a high wind power penetration, the fast voltage support of a wind power plant (WPP) during the grid fault is required to stabilize the grid voltage. This paper proposes a voltage control scheme of a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG)-based WPP that can promptly support the voltage of the point of common coupling (PCC) of a WPP during the grid fault. In the proposed scheme, the WPP and DFIG controllers operate in a voltage control mode. The DFIG controller employs two control loops: a maximum voltage dip-dependent reactive current injection loop and a reactive power to voltage loop. The former injects the reactive power in proportion to the maximum voltage dip; the latter injects the reactive power in proportion to the available reactive power capability of a DFIG. The former improves the performance of the conventional voltage control scheme, which uses the latter only, by increasing the reactive power as a function of the maximum voltage dip. The performance of the proposed scheme was investigated for a 100-MW WPP consisting of 20 units of a 5-MW DFIG under various grid fault scenarios using an EMTP-RV simulator. The simulation results indicate that the proposed scheme promptly supports the PCC voltage during the fault under various fault conditions by increasing the reactive current with the maximum voltage dip.

We studied the effect of spin injection on tunneling conduction properties of intrinsic Josephson junctions formed in $Bi_2$$Sr_2$$CaCu_2$$O_{ 8＋x}$ single crystals. properties of an identical stack (10${\times}$5.0${\times}$0.030 $\mu\textrm{m}^3$) of intrinsic Josephson junctions were compared for the bias current injected through Au and Co electrodes. The suppression of the superconducting gap in the $_2$ double layers and the interlayer Josephson critical current was manifested in the tunneling current-voltage characteristics of the stacks. This effect appears to be caused by the pair breaking associated with spin-polarized carriers injected from the Co electrode into the $Bi_2$$Sr_2$$_2$O$CaCu_{ 8＋x}$ single crystal. This study may provide valuable information on clarifying the mechanism of high- $T_{c}$ superconductivity.y.y.

This paper proposes an active islanding detection method for the BESS (Battery Energy Storage System) with 3-phase inverter which is connected to the AC grid. The proposed method adopts the DDSRF (Decoupled Double Synchronous Reference Frame) PLL (Phase Locked-Loop) so that the independent control of positive-sequence and negative-sequence current is successfully carried out using the detected phase angle information. The islanding state can be detected by sensing the variation of negative-sequence voltage at the PCC (Point of Common Connection) due to the injection of 2-3% negative-sequence current from the BESS. The proposed method provides a secure and rapid detection under the variation of negative-sequence voltage due to the sag and swell. The feasibility of proposed method was verified by computer simulations with PSCAD/EMTDC and experimental analyses with 5kW hardware prototype for the benchmark circuit of islanding detection suggested by IEEE 1547 and UL1741. The proposed method would be applicable for the secure detection of islanding state in the grid-tied Microgrid.

Current-voltage-luminance characteristics of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) were measured in the temperature range of 10 K～300 K. Indium-tin-oxide (ITO) was used as an anode and aluminum as a cathode in the device. Organic of N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-di(m-tolyl)-benzidine (TPD) was used for a hole transporting material, and tris (8-hydroxyquinolinato) aluminum (Alq$_3$) for an electron transporting material and emissive material. And copper phthalocyanine (CuPc), poly(3,4-ethylenedi oxythiophene);poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS), and poly(N-vinylcarbazole) (PVK) were used for hole-injection buffer layers. From tile analysis of electroluminescence (EL) and photoluminesccnce (PL) spectra of the Alq$_3$, the EL spectrum is more greenish then that of PL. And the temperature-dependent current-voltage characteristics were analyzed in the double and multilayer structure of OLEDS. Electrical conduction mechanism was explained in the region of high-electric and low-electric field. Temperature-dependent luminous efficiency and operating voltage were analyzed from the current-voltage- luminance characteristics of the OLEDS.

This paper investigates the relationship of voltage and current waveform between normal piezo injector and deterioration abnormal piezo injector. The experimental methods using Pico oscilloscope and GDS scan tool are employed to measure current and voltage waveform and fuel pressure of piezo injector. The experiment is carried out during no-load condition. A summary of the important results are as follows. 1) In case of normal injector, the fluctuation of duration time of piezo injector was linearly and regularly decreased with increasing engine speed, but the that of deterioration piezo injector was irregularly decreased with increasing engine speed. 2) In main injection, the peak value of the current waveform of abnormal injector was larger than that of normal injector, the duration time of deteriorated abnormal injector was less than that of normal injector at 800rpm and 1500rpm, but the duration time of deteriorated abnormal injector was larger than that of normal injector at 2000rpm and 3000rpm. This irregularity appears to be caused by the deterioration of the injector.

In this study, we applied microcellular foaming injection molding process to improve the performance of system air-conditioner drain fan which had been produced by injection molding process and studied the optimization of process conditions through 6-sigma process and response surface method (RSM) to reduce weight and deformation of products. Additive type, melt temperature, mold temperature, and injection screw shape were selected as the factor affecting the weight and deformation of the products by carrying out analysis of trivial many through ANOVA and design of experiment (DOE) method. Among the effect factor, we set the addictive type to Long G/F and screw shape to foaming screw which had the highest level of weight reduction and deformation reduction. The amount of foaming agent gas was set at 60 ml, which was the limit beyond which the weight of product did not decrease any more. For melt temperature and mold temperature, we studied the conditions where both weight and deformation were minimized using the RSM. As a result, we set the melt temperature to $250^{\circ}C$, fixed mold temperature to $20^{\circ}C$, and moving mold temperature to $40^{\circ}C$. The improvement effect was analyzed by appling the selected optimal conditions to the production process using the microcellular foaming injection molding. The results showed that the mean weight of product was measured to be 1,420g which was 19% lower than that measured in the current process. The standard deviations of the weights were found to be similar to those in the current process and it showed a low dispersion. The mean deformation was measured to be 0.9237mm, which represented a 57% reduction compared to the mean deformation in the current process, and the standard deviation decreased from 0.3298mm to 0.1398mm. Moreover, we analyzed the process capability for deformation, and the results showed that the short-term process capability increased from 2.73 to 6.60 which was even higher than targeted level of 6.0.

This paper proposes a new THD reduction algorithm for modular multilevel converters (MMCs) with offset voltage injection operated in nearest level modulation (NLM). High voltage direct current (HVDC) is actively introduced to the grid connection of offshore wind powers, and this paper deals with a voltage generation technique with an MMC for wind power generation. In the proposed method, third harmonic voltage is added for reducing the THD. The third harmonic voltage is adjusted so that each of the pole voltage magnitudes maintains a constant value with a maximum number of (N+1) levels, where N is the number of sub-modules per arm. By using the proposed method, the THD of the output voltage is mitigated without increasing the switching frequency. In addition, the proposed method has advantageous characteristics such as simple implementation. As a part of this study, this paper compares the THD results of the conventional method and the proposed method with offset voltage injection to reduce the THD. In this paper, simulations have been carried out to verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme, and the proposed method is implemented by a HILS (Hardware in the Loop Simulation) system. The obtained results show agreement with the simulation results. It is confirmed that the new scheme achieved the maximum level output voltage and improved the THD quality.
