High frequency induction heating (HFIH) is used in many industries and has a number of advantages, including reliability and repeatability. It is a non-contact method of providing energy-efficient heat in the minimum amount of time without using a flame. Recently, HFIH has been actively studied using the finite element method (FEM), however, these studies only focused on the accuracy of the analysis. In this paper, we can measure joule heat distributions by the electromagnetic analysis for HFIH and the temperature distribution from the heat transfer analysis by applying joule heat for a sprocket. The sprocket is heated over $850^{\circ}C$ due to joule heat and then cooled to under $200^{\circ}C$ by using cooling $20^{\circ}C$ water. These processes were used to calculate the FEM and then compared to our experimental results. The calculated outcome may be used to predict hardening depth in HFIH.

콘크리트내의 철근의 부식은 열화와 콘크리트 구조물의 조기파괴의 주된 원인이 된다. 본 연구에서는 비파괴 기법 중 전자기적 열유도방법과 적외선 열화상기법을 이용한 철근부식평가가 시도되었는데, 부식 또는 비부식된 철근의 열특성 차이를 이용한 것이다. 본 논문은 이러한 개념을 배경으로 수행한 실험적 연구이며, 유도전류를 통해 콘크리트 표면으로부터 내부 철근을 가열하고 외부의 적외선 카메라를 이용하여 표면의 온도변화를 관측한다. 피복두께가 다른 콘크리트 시편은 앞면과 배면의 피복두께를 동일하게 제조하여 앞면에서 가열과 배면에서의 온도측정을 동시에 할 수 있도록 고안되었다. IC (Impressed Current) 방법을 통하여, 철근 부식을 촉진하였으며, 적외선 화상을 통하여 온도가열과 냉각을 전 시험과정에 걸쳐 측정하였다. 본 실험을 통하여 부식/비부식 철근의 뚜렷한 온도변화를 확인하였으며, 부식된 시편에서 빠른 온도증가속도 및 냉각속도를 평가하였다. 본 연구는 콘크리트 매립철근의 비파괴적인 부식탐지의 가능성을 보여주고 있다.

The systematic and effective design method of a Class-D current-source resonant inverter for use in an induction cooker with zero-ripple line current is presented. The design procedure is based on the principle of the Class-D current-source resonant inverter with a simplified load network model that is a parallel equivalent circuit. An induction load characterization is obtained from a large-signal excitation test-bench based on parallel load network, which is the key to an accurate design for the induction cooker system. Accordingly, the proposed scheme provides a systematic, precise, and feasible solution than the existing design method based on series-parallel load network under low-signal excitation. Moreover, a zero-ripple condition of utility-line input current is naturally preserved without any extra circuit or control. Meanwhile, a differential-mode input electromagnetic interference (EMI) filter can be eliminated, high power quality in utility-line can be obtained, and a standard-recovery diode of bridge-rectifier can be employed. The step-by-step design procedure explained with design example. The devices stress and power loss analysis of induction cooker with a parallel load network under large-signal excitation are described. A 2,500-W laboratory prototype was developed for $220-V_{rms}/50-Hz$ utility-line to verify the theoretical analysis. An efficiency of the prototype is 96% at full load.

전기자동차 배터리 시스템은 낮은 온도에서 배터리 출력과 수명이 감소하는 문제가 발생한다. 상온 유지를 목적으로 Positive Temperature Coefficient(PTC) 히터가 사용되고 있다. 하지만 PTC 히터는 복잡한 절연구조로 인해 중량이 크다. 중량이 클수록 전기자동차의 연비가 감소한다. 반면에 인덕션 히터는 단순한 절연 구조로 중량 저감에 효과적이며 빠른 온도 상승 특성을 가지고 있다. 따라서 전기자동차용 히터는 인덕션 히터가 적합하다. 인덕션 히터는 LC공진 회로로 구성된다. 정전용량이 클수록 가격과 중량이 상승하기 때문에 인덕턴스를 높여 정전용량을 감소시켜야한다. 또한 인덕션 히터의 주 발열원은 철손이다. 따라서 전자기장 설계 관점에서 인덕턴스 및 철손의 최적화가 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 인덕션 히터 구조 변경에 따른 인덕턴스 및 철손을 다구찌 기법과 유한요소법(FEM) 시뮬레이션을 통해 분석하고 최적화 설계하였다.

Pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) was used first to induce osteogenesis in 1974. The appliance which was consisted of the Helmholtz coil configuration have used to osteogensis. The objective of this study was to determine whether PEMF, a frequency of 100 Hz and magnetic field strength of 38 gauss applied to the calvarial defect in rabbit, could affect the induction of osteogenesis and the healing of the graft bone. This field should not produce excitation of nerve or muscle and heating the tissue. To evaluate the effect of PEMF on osteogenesis, 16 rabbit under the same condition was divided into 8 experimental groups and 8 control groups. 10 mm calvarial bone defects were formed around sagittal suture. The defect of left side was left without graft while the defect of right side was grafted by bone harvested from left side. A pulsed electromagnetic field was applied for 8 hours per day. Each group was sacrificed after 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 8 weeks. Microscopic specimens were obtained from the calvarial bone defects and surrounding tissue using Hematoxylin-Eosin staining method. The results were as follows. 1. In the group which pulsed electromagnetic field was applied, new bone formation filled up the defect was observed after 4 and 8 weeks effectively. 2. There are no difference in the healing period for the fusion between the bone and graft bone. According to the result, the PEMF with 38 Gauss, 100 Hz was very effective in the healing of bone defect and new bone formation. So The PEMF will be useful in clinical aspect for oseteogenesis.

This paper presents a novel type soft switching PWM power frequency AC-AC converter using bidirectional active switches or single phase utility frequency AC-high frequency AC matrix converter. This converter can directly convert utility frequency AC (UFAC, 50Hz/60Hz) power to high frequency AC (HFAC) power ranging more than 20kHz up to 100kHz. A novel soft switching PWM prototype of high frequency multi-resonant PWM controlled UFAC-HFAC matrix converter using antiparallel one-chip reverse blocking IGBTs manufactured by IXYS corp. is based on the soft switching resonance with asymmetrical duty cycle PWM strategy. This single phase UFAC-HFAC matrix converter has some remarkable features as electrolytic capacitor DC busline linkless topology, unity power factor correction and sine-wave line current shaping, simple configuration with minimum circuit components, high efficiency and downsizing. This series load resonant UFAC-HFAC matrix converter, incorporating bidirectional active power switches is developed and implemented for high efficiency consumer induction heated food cooking appliances in home uses and business-uses. Its operating performances as soft switching operating ranges and high frequency effective power regulation characteristics are illustrated and discussed on the basis of simulation and experimental results.

Micron-sized metal wires are widely used in industries such as filtration, catalyst and composite materials, etc. In the wire drawing process, the die that is used conventionally is an effective and, at the same time, sensitive component. However, a typical array of the dies has caused many problems in the wire drawing process, e.g., large frictional force on the interface between wire and the resulting high heat generation, precise adjustment of the dies, extended cooling system, die abrasion, etc.. Because of these problems, there have been many works that are aiming at improving the efficiency of wire drawing process by analyzing the die geometry and by applying advanced die material to prolong the die life or even at developing a dieless wire drawing system. This paper is dealing with developing a new wire drawing system that is applicable to reduce the wire drawing steps with high draw ratio. The new wire drawing system does not use the dies, but use the self-induced heater that works on the basis of the resonant phenomenon of wire material. The electromagnetic wave is the heating source. The results of the study on the diameter reduction and microwave flow analysis show that the heating effectiveness of the wire is influenced by the energy distribution in the microwave propagation chamber. We can obtain diameter-reduced wires by using microwave in the dieless drawing process. Microwave as a heating source is capable of producing wires without applying dies in wire drawing process.

유도가열 코일 내부의 물질에 비접촉식으로 에너지를 전달하기 위하여 유도가열 코일에는 고주파 대전류를 투입하게 된다. 이러한 결과로 코일 자체에도 상당히 높은 수준의 발열이 발생하게 된다. 따라서 실제적으로 코팅물질의 발열을 위하여 전달되는 에너지 이외에 소모적으로 사용되는 에너지가 어쩔 수 없이 코일에 존재하게 된다. 이는 전자기코일의 효율을 낮추는 역할 뿐만 아니라 안정적인 운전을 저해하는 역할을 하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 전자기 및 온도 해석을 통하여 설계 제작된 유도가열 코일을 투입 전류를 바꾸며 실험하여 각 전류 투입시 코일에서의 발열량 및 온도 측정 결과를 해석 결과와 비교하여 유도가열 코일에 대한 평가를 수행 하였다.
