A new method for reducing the common-mode current generated by the voltage variations in a two-inverter air conditioner system by applying a synchronized pulse-width modulation (PWM) strategy is proposed. The PWM signals of the master-mode inverter are generated based on the reference voltage, while those of the slave-mode inverter are output in the opposite direction when the master-mode inverter changes its switching state. However, the slave-mode control results in a mismatch between the reference voltage and the actual output voltage that is modified by synchronized control operation. The proposed method is capable of reducing and controlling this voltage error by performing signal selection in the vector space of the slave-mode inverter, which mitigates the distortion of the phase current. The efficacy of this method in reducing conducted emissions has been validated both theoretically and experimentally.

Even a pure bulk Fe has a complicated magnetic phase and its magnetism is still needed to be clarified. In this study we investigated the magnetism of bcc and fcc bulk Fe with total energy calculations as functions of atomic volume. The full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method was adopted within a generalized gradient approximation. The ground state of bulk Fe is confirmed to be of ferromagnetic (FM) bcc. For fcc structured Fe an antiferromagnetic (AFM) state is more stable compared to FM states which exist as low spin and high spin states. The stable AFM states were found to accompany a tetragonal distortion, while the FM states remained in a cubic symmetry. At an expanded lattice constant a high spin FM state was calculated to be able to be stabilized with significant enhanced magnetic moment compared to the value of the ground state, bcc FM.

지능형 구조물에서의 진동 등과 같이 주파수가 1 KHz에 이르는 물리량을 고감도로 측정할 수 있는 광섬유센서를 위한 신호 처리기를 구현하기 위하여 광섬유자이로스코프에 적용되었던 전디지털 위상추적신호처리(ADPT)를 교류량 측정용(다이나믹)으로 변경하여 설계하였다. 구현된 다이나믹 ADPT 신호처리기를 광섬유 Mach-Zehnder간섭계에 적용하여 성능을 평가한 결과 ADPT신호처리방식의 한계인 -50 ㏈에 가까운 전고조파 왜율을 가짐을 확인하였다.

In this study, we propose a compensation method of raw LiDAR data with noise and noise filtering for signal processing of LiDAR sensors during the development phase. The raw LiDAR data include constant errors generated by delays in transmitting and receiving signals, which can be resolved by LiDAR signal compensation. The signal compensation consists of two stage. First one is LiDAR sensor calibration for a compensation of geometric distortion. Second is walk error compensation. LiDAR data also include fluctuation and outlier noise, the latter of which is removed by data filtering. In this study, we compensate for the fluctuation by using the Kalman filter method, and we remove the outlier noise by applying a Gaussian weight function.

In this paper, a single-stage alternating current (AC)-DC converter is proposed for the automated-guided vehicle wireless charging system. The proposed converter is capable of soft-switching under all input voltage (VAC: 220 Vrms ± 10%), load conditions (0-1 kW), and air gap changes (40-60 mm) by phase control at a fixed switching frequency. In addition, controlling a wide output voltage (Vo: 39~54 VDC) is possible by varying the link voltage and improving the input power factor and the total harmonic distortion factor. Experimental results were verified by making a prototype of a 1-kW wireless power charging system that operates with robustness to changes in air gaps.

This paper investigated sound characteristics by the delamination of an acoustic window. In detail, acoustic scattering and transmission characteristics on the delaminated acoustic window were estimated using an experimental and numerical approach. The experiment results showed that acoustic wave could lose its amplitude and take phase delay when it propagates the delaminated acoustic window. The numerical results showed that scattering phenomena occur on the delamination surface. The scattering characteristics presented differently according to the delamination size in the acoustic window. It also showed that transmitted sound distortion due to delamination could cause a direction detection error of SONAR by changing the position of the main lobe and the magnitude of the side lobe. In conclusion, the delamination has to be managed during the manufacturing process of acoustic windows.

The construction of STELLA-2 facility is on-going to demonstrate the safety system of PGSFR and to provide comprehensive understanding of transient behavior under DBEs. Considering that most events are single-phase natural circulation flow with slow transient, STELLA-2 was designed with reduced-height of 1/5 length scale. The ratio of volume to surface area in the vessel can relatively increase resulting in excessive heat transfer. Therefore, a steady-state thermal-hydraulic analysis was performed and the effect of design change to reduce the heat transfer through redan was investigated. The heat transfer through single wall redan in STELLA-2 was 3% of the core power, comparable to 1% of the core power in PGSFR. By applying the insulated redan, about 70% of decrease effect was observed. The effect on transient behavior was also evaluated. The conclusion of this study was directly applied to the STELLA-2 design and the modified version is under construction.

A grid-connected 3-level NPC inverter is a power conversion device that connects renewable energy generators, such as photovoltaic or wind turbines to the grid. Although many studies have focused on this inverter, commercializing it requires strictly satisfying various safety and power quality-related standards. Among many standards, leakage current and grid current total harmonic distortion(THD) can be affected by external factors such as installation environment, aging, and grid conditions. Hence, inverter operations that can satisfy these standards need to be explored. In this study a 3-level NPC inverter operation algorithm using the Phase Opposition Disposition-PWM method that can effectively reduce leakage current and switching frequency adjustment to reduce THD effectively has been proposed.

3상 컨버터에서 스위치의 개방고장이 발생한 경우 고장 전류에 직류 및 고조파 성분이 발생할 수 있으며, 보호회로에 의한 고장 감지가 어려우므로 주변 기기에 2차 고장이 발생할 수 있다. 단일 및 이중 스위치 개방고장의 경우 21가지 고장 모드가 존재한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 고장 모드를 진단하기 위해 정지 좌표계 d-q축 전류의 직류 및 고조파 성분을 활용하는 two-step 구조의 ANN(Artificial Neural Network)을 제안한다. 고장 시에 발생된 직류 및 고조파 성분 전류는 ADALINE(Adaptive-Linear Neuron)을 통해 얻는다. 고장 진단의 첫 번째 단계에서는 직류 성분을 기반으로 ANN을 이용하여 고장모드를 6개 영역으로 분류한다. 두 번째 단계에서는 6개의 각 영역에서 직류 성분과 전류의 THD(Total Harmonics Distortion)를 기반으로 ANN을 이용하여 개방고장이 발생한 스위치를 진단한다. 제안된 Two-step 방법으로 고장을 진단하므로써 간단한 구조로 ANN의 설계가 가능하다. 3.7kW급 3상 PWM 컨버터로 실험을 통해 제안된 방법의 효용성을 검증하였다.

AC 전기철도 시스템은 동적 단상부하가 빠르게 변화하고, 전철 급전변전소에서 3상 전력을 단상 전력으로 변환한다. 이것은 일반 배전 시스템과 비교해서 AC 전기철도 시스템의 전기적인 현상들이 다르다는 것을 나타낸다. AC 전기철도 열차부하의 전기적인 특성은 동적부하의 운영과 운행 스케줄, 트랙의 구배 등에 따라 연속적인 변화를 받고 있다. 이와 같은 열차부하의 운영에 따른 급전거리가 길어 전압강하, 전압 불평형 및 고조파 왜곡현상 등의 전력 품질 저하요인이 발생하게 된다. 이러한 문제점은 상위계통인 송전시스템의 안정도에 악영향을 줄뿐만 아니라, 전기철도 급전시스템의 전력품질 저하, 전기철도차량의 통신장비, 운행 및 수송량 제한에도 영향을 미치게 된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 전기철도시스템의 과도상태 평가를 위해 PSCAD/EMTDC를 이용한 평가모델을 제시하고, 전압 강하에 주안점을 두어, 전기철도 급전시스템의 말단 분기점(Sectioning Post)에 정지형 무효전력 보상장치인 단상 배전 STATCOM(Single-phase Static Synchronous Compensator)을 설치하여 그 작용에 따른 전압강하 보상을 평가하였다.
