Eddy current are induced when a nonmagnetic, conductive material is moving as the result of being subjected to the magnetic field, or if it is placed in a time-varying magnetic field. These currents circulate in the conductive material and are dissipated, causing a repulsive force between the magnet and conductor. Using this concept, eddy current damping can be used as a form of viscous damping. This paper investigated analytically and experimentally the characteristics of an eddy current damping when a permanent magnet is placed in a conductive tube. The theoretical model of the eddy current damping is developed from electromagnetics and is verified from Maxwell program and experiments. From these comparisons, although predictability is not accurate at high excitation frequencies, the present model can be used to predict damping force at low excitation frequencies. In order to improve the prediction of the characteristics of an eddy current damping, the induced magnetic flux densities have to be considered in following researches.

This study was investigated to fabricate the porcelain materials with high magnetic characteristics. The high characteristics of the magnetic porcelain materials were achieved at the following conditions; powder sizes of isotropic Sr-ferrites with $1{\sim}2\;mm$ and magnetic powder infraction of 30 wt%. The magnetic tea cups with 3-mm-thick at the optimum conditions indicated the high magnetic characteristics such as the surface flux density of 178 G, the remanent flux density of 240 G, and the intrinsic coercivity of 3910 Oe.

Recent development in the field of RE-Ba-Cu-O (REBCO, RE: Y or rare earth elements) bulk high-Tc superconductors (HTS) is reviewed in the present paper. After the fatal weak link problem of sintered REBCO superconductors has been overcome by melt processing, this field has been greatly advanced during last ten years. The critical current density $J_c$ at 77 K has been enhanced by introducing effective flux pinning sites into the $REBa_2Cu_3O_y$ (RE123) superconducting matrix. Large melt-textured REBCO bulk crystals have been fabricated with the TSMG(top-seeded melt growth) technique. Mechanical properties of REBCO bulks have been improved by using the Ag additive or epoxy resin. Real bulk applications such as current lead, fault current limiter, flywheel energy storage system, magnetic field source, magnetic separation system, and etc., surely come true near future.

The YBaCuO superconducting bulks were prepared by the thermal diffusion process involving the peritectic reaction to investigate the effect on microstructure and superconductivity. All the diffused YBaCuO could be successively separated from superconducting 123 phase by applying the thermal diffusion process. Electromagnetic properties of treated and untreated YBaCuO superconductor were evaluated to investigate the pinning effect. It was confirmed experimentally that a large amount of magnetic flux was trapped in the thermal treated superconducting bulk than that in the untreated one, indicating that the pinning centers of magnetic flux are related closely to the occurrence mechanism of the magnetic effect.

This paper presents leakage magnetic field and leakage inductance calculations in current transformer by means of 3-D Integral methods. From the distribution diagram of leakage magnetic flux to be analyzed using program called TRACAL 3, ti confirms a parallel to the winding axis direction of the leakage flux lines in the air gap between the windings. The leakage inductances L$\sub$r1/ and L$\sub$r2/ of the primary and secondary winding were calculated, their values are 4.23 MH and 0.49 mH, respectively. They are also similar to the measured values of he leakage inductances of the experimental verification, 4.06 mH and 0.47 mH.

The effort attempts to investigate the influence of various non-oriented electrical steel sheets on the core loss of a switched reluctance motor (SRM). The core loss of the motor inherits a strong correlation with flux density and permeability of the material. The study involves the use of laminated 2.7 % high silicon steel suitable for the motor in view of its higher flux density and lower core loss. The accurate prediction of core loss leaves way to suggest measures for improving the performance of the SRM. The dynamic simulation measurements of a 1.5 kW, three-phase 12/8 SRM involve the finite element method (FEM) and use the data obtained experimentally from Epstein frame. The closeness of the simulated and hardware results obtained with laminations of M400-50A, DI MAX-M19 and DI MAX-M15 both for the stator and rotor, espouse a greater significance to the findings in terms of the core loss density and forge new dimensions for its use in the drive industry.

Conjugate heat transfer analysis for an ethylene furnace was carried out based on numerical simulation. Detailed distributions of velocity vectors, chemical species, and temperature inside the furnace are presented and discussed. Von Mises stress and heat flux at the tube surface were also evaluated to elucidate mechanisms regarding failure of the tube. Maximum stress was found at the upstream elbow of the tube, which did not coincide with the location of maximum heat flux. This implies that thermal stress at a steady state would not be a dominant component of the stress. Degradation of the material, as well as the system arrangement, should be considered in order to accurately predict the lifetime of the tube material in the furnace.

The Electromagnetic properties in BiPbSrCaCuO superconductor was studied. In the measurement of current-voltage characteristics, a voltage across the superconducting sample was observed on applying an external magnetic field. The voltage continues to appear the removal of the magnetic field. The appearance of the voltage is ascribed to the trapping of magnetic flux. Depanding on the direction of appied magnetic flux less than $2.5\times{10}^-5$ T, the voltage in the magnetized sample increases or decreases. It is considered that mechanism of voltage occurrence can be explained by applying filament model.

We have fabricated a channel of superconducting flux flow transistor(SFFT) using the voltage-biased atomic force microscope(AFM) TiO tip and performed numerical simulations for the SFFT controlled by the magnetic field with a control current. The critical current density in a channel of the fabricated SFFT was decreased with the applied current by a control line. By comparing the measured with theoretical results, we showed a possibility of fabrication of an SFFT with a nano-channel using AFM anodization process technique.
