  • In this paper, a new type of permanent magnetic actuator (PMA) with multi-stage coils is proposed. Although the conventional type of PMA has many advantages, it cannot be applied in the high voltage circuit breakers due to its short stoke length. The new type of PMA has long stroke length by using multi-stage coils, so it can be applied as an actuator for the high voltage circuit breakers. Dynamic characteristics are calculated by the finite element method (FEM), equation of electric circuit and dynamic equation. The position of plunger and the current of coils in case of the actuator applied in 38kV, 40kA vacuum circuit breaker are presented.

  • Flux concentrated permanent magnet transverse flux machines, FCPM-TFMs, with segmented stators require multi-turn concentric saddle coils to replace the ring coils, which are normally utilized in conventional layeredphase TFM constructions. In this paper, we investigate the influence of the shape of saddle phase windings and their parameter variations on the output torque productivity. Non-meshed coils evaluated via a finite element method (FEM) to examine the effect of the coil's location within one phase on machine performance. By using meshed coils, the analysis can be extended to inspect the distributions of magnetic field strength as well as current density in the coils. Throughout the study, the influence of design parameters on the output torque for two stator structures, i.e., a laminated and soft magnetic composite (SMC), are evaluated.

  • A general equivalent circuit model is developed for a wireless energy transfer system composed of multiple coils via coupled magnetic resonances. To verify the developed model, four types of wireless energy transfer systems are fabricated, measured, and compared with simulation results. To model a system composed of n-coils, node equations are built in the form of an n-by-n matrix, and the equivalent circuit model is established using an electric design automation tool. Using the model, we can simulate systems with multiple coils, power sources, and loads. Moreover, coupling constants are extracted as a function of the distance between two coils, and we can predict the characteristics of a system having coils at an arbitrary location. We fabricate four types of systems with relay coils, two operating frequencies, two power sources, and the function of characteristic impedance conversion. We measure the characteristics of all systems and compare them with the simulation results. The flexibility of the developed model enables us to design and optimize a complicated system consisting of many coils.

  • The purpose of this study was to determine how the different number of channels of coils were related in the perceived signal intensity under identical parameters and area. Dedicated knee phantoms were scanned consecutively using both of the 16-channel and 8-channel knee coils. The T1 weighted and T2 weighted sequences were acquired using both coils to compare the signal intensities according to the number of channels. As a result, the 16-channel knee coils outperformed the 8-channel knee coils and the signal intensity was significantly increased in both of the T1 and T2 weighted images with the 16-channel coil. In conclusion, it is considered that better signal intensities and more clinical utility can be provided, when coils with more number of channels are used rather than using the coils with smaller number of channels.

  • In this paper, we have studied about design and fabrication of the actively shielded superconducting MRI magnet. Nonlinear optimization methods are usually used to find optimum coil configurations. However the selection of initial coil configurations is very difficult. In case bad initial data are used, it is even impossible to find optimum coil configurations which satisfy predefined constraints. We have developed computer optimization program which consists of two steps. Initial coil configurations are easily selected through linear optimization in the first step and optimum coil configurations are found through nonlinear optimization in the second step. We have also studied about superconducting shim coils to cancel error fields caused by coil fabrication errors. Many researchers published design concepts of shim coil. However all these studies are for shim coil design using filamentary coils with single turn, Shim coils with multi-turns should be used to produce enough field strength to cancel error fields. We have developed computer program for the design of shim coils which have proper thickness and length. An actively shielded superconducting MRI magnet with a small warm bore was fabricated and four sets of superconducting shim coils were equipped. The magnetic field distributions were measured and field correction was carried out using shim coils.

  • In this paper, we introduce a multi-coil antenna which is useful for reducing the effects of radio frequency noise in an inductively coupled RFID system. A multi-coil antenna is composed of a central coil and four subsidiary coils that are connected in series. A multi-coil antenna is designed so that the total noise disappear when the induced voltages of a central coil and subsidiary coils are added. The noise in a multi-coil antenna was about 30 dB lower than that in a single coil antenna. The multi-coil antenna is very effective in noise reduction even in an environment that the spatial distribution of RF noise is changed abruptly, and the induced noise was about 16 dB lower than that in a dual coil antenna.

  • In this study, we measured signal intensities according to array coil position changes to provide reference data of coil directions and the distances as it deters image quality unless the coils are aligned properly. The multi-purpose MRI phantom was placed in body array coils, and it was moved to the top, bottom, left, and right directions by 2 cm from the center to 10 cm. After obtaining images, signal intensities were measured and compared. The results of this study were as follows: Except for the upward direction, the signal intensities of the reference signal was not significantly different from that of the reference signal intensity within 2cm in both T1 and T2-weighted images. In conclusion, in clinical circumstances which various challenges exist to align the coils exactly on the same lines, array coils should be positioned at least within 2 cm from the center except for the upward direction, on the same line to prevent the image qualities are lowered.

  • A 3-DOF actuator which has new principle and very simple structure is proposed. Its principle seems to be similar to conventional electromagnetic actuators, that is, to utilize the relation of control and bias fluxes produced by coils and permanent magnets, respectively, but the coils and permanent magnets of the proposed actuator are fixed in the stator. Such a structure helps to optimally design the actuator for its use. Some experimental and FEM analysis results show the feasibility of the proposed actuator and some characteristics of system that are useful lot structure design and control.

  • An electromagnetic launcher (EML) system accelerates and launches a projectile by converting electric energy into kinetic energy. There are two types of EML systems under development: the rail gun and the coil gun. A railgun comprises a pair of parallel conducting rails, along which a sliding armature is accelerated by the electromagnetic effects of a current that flows down one rail, into the armature and then back along the other rail, but the high mechanical friction between the projectile and the rail can damage the projectile. A coil gun launches the projectile by the attractive magnetic force of the electromagnetic coil. A higher projectile muzzle velocity needs multiple stages of electromagnetic coils, which makes the coil gun EML system longer. As a result, the installation cost of a coil gun EML system is very high due to the large installation site needed for the EML. We present a coil gun EML system that has a new structure and arrangement for multiple electromagnetic coils to reduce the length of the system. A mathematical model of the proposed coil gun EML system is developed in order to calculate the magnetic field and forces, and to simulate the muzzle velocity of a projectile by driving and switching the electric current into multiple stages of electromagnetic coils. Using the proposed design, the length of the coil gun EML system is shortened by 31% compared with a conventional coil gun system while satisfying a target projectile muzzle velocity of over 100 m/s.
