This paper proposes a low power-loss averaging current mode control using a resistor and bypass switch. Generally, current sensing method using a resistor has a disadvantage of power loss which degrades the efficiency of the entire systems. On the other hand, proposed measurement technique operating with bypass-switch connected in parallel with sensing resistor can reduce power loss significantly the current sensor. An analog-circuited bypass driver is implemented and used along with an average-circuit mode controller. The bypass switch bypasses the sensing current with a small amount of power loss. In this paper, a 50[W] prototype average current mode boost converter has been implemented for the experimental verification.

Purpose: The radial speed of plasma current sheath was measured at the plasma focus apparatus. Methods: The measurement was used to time-resolved spectroscopic method and Rogowski coils. Results: Radial current sheath speed was measured with $10^5$ cm/s at Helium and Argon pressure between 5 to 100 torr and discharging voltage of 15 kV. When the gas pressure was increased, the current sheath speeds were decreased. Conclusions: At the optimum condition of plasma focus apparatus, the radial speed is guessed $10^7$ cm/s as a results of the measurement of current sheath speed.

After various measuring methods and system were investigated, Rogowski colis for the measurement of parameters in current zero region were designed and manufactured. Using the Rogowski coils and a 38kV 40kA VCB (vacuum circuit breaker), at last the post-arc current has been successfully measured firstly. It was found that the Rogowski coils used in this study have good characteristics and propriety to measure the parameters of current zero. We realized that the data processing for evaluating the post-arc current from the experimental results needs much more careful attention than that for building the measuring technique and system. The magnitude of post-arc current and the falling time of it to zero are proportioned to the rate of current di/dt. The magnitude of post-arc currents were around $1{\sim}3A$ to the interruption current of $20{\sim}30kA$ in the model VCB.

Several ways for monitoring the soundness of ZnO lightning arresters have been suggested, and all of which are based on the measurement of leakage current since it is well known that the resistive leakage current is a main indicator of arrester deterioration. In this paper, we proposed an algorithm to measure the resistive leakage current, which is quite different from the conventional method that eliminates capacitive current from the total leakage current. The proposed algorithm is based on that the magnitudes of the resistive leakage current are equal at the same applied voltage levels. To confirm the reliability of the algorithm, we fabricated a leakage current detector and designed an analysis program. Experimental results showed that the method does not need a complex circuitry and is useful to analyze the resistive leakage current.

Objectives: The Purpose of this study is to improve work environment measurement in construction industry by survey. Especially, this study focused on the defferences between construction staffs(safety manger, health manager) and work environment measurement institution workers. Methods: Survey targets are construction staffs(safety manger, health manager) and work environment measurement institution workers. Respondent was selected by respective councils and conferences. A questionnaire consisting of items on general characteristics and the improvement of work environment measurement in construction industry. Results: Total of 134 people(39 safety managers, 27 health managers, 68 work environment measurement institution workers) responded to survey. Overall, current work environment measurement was deemed unsuitable for construction industry. There was a significant difference between construction staff and work environment institution workers in some question. On the other hand, there was no noticeable significant difference in general characteristics. Conclusions: As a result of survey, current work environment measurement was deemed unsuitable for construction industry in terms of measurement method, measurement timing, and actual site improvement. In addition, there is a statistically significant differences in response between construction staff and work environment measurement institution workers, so it is necessary to reflect both opinions in order to improve work environment measurement in construction industry.

Rises of current level at power applications, such as transformer, motor, power cable need for using stacked HTS tapes. In this paper, we measured rises of temperature and tap voltage in 4-stacked HTS tapes under over-current condition. We measured 4-stacked HTS tapes properties under over-current condition with a little temperature rise as well as a large temperature rise. Rises of temperature and tap voltage are measured by using E-type thermocouples and voltage taps, respectively. According to the results of measurement, rises of tap voltage under over-current condition with a large temperature rises depends on rises of temperature.

Variable iron loss as function of current phase angle of Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor(IPMSM) was calculated through Curve Fitting Method(CFM). Also, a magnetic flux density distribution of iron core according to current phase angle was analyzed, and an iron loss calculation was performed including harmonic distortion. The experiment was performed by production of non-magnetizing model for the separation of mechanical loss, and the iron loss was calculated by the measurement of input using power analyzer and output power using dynamometer. Some error was generated between experimental results and calculation value, but an iron loss diminution according to current phase angle followed a same pattern. So, errors were generated by measurement, vibration, noise, harmonic distortion loss, etc.

Based on Faraday effect, the variation of current flowing through the conductor can be encoded as that of azimuth angle of light polarization propagating through the fiber coil wound onto the conductor. The amount of current can be obtained by measuring the variation of the light intensity transformed from that of the azimuth angle through a polarization analyzer. In this paper we propose a fiber-optic current sensor system that employs a fiber polarization analyzer as a sensor interrogation device. The fiber polarization analyzer was prepared by inscribing a long-period fiber grating on a high birefringent fiber. At the fixed wavelength of 1522.5 nm, the fabricated fiber device has the polarization extinction ratio of more than 25 dB. The measurement of large current up to 600 Arms was accomplished based on a simple fiber interrogation device and the measurement output of the sensor system showed a good linearity.
