The design of the integrated quench protection (QP) system for the high current superconducting magnet (SCM) has been fabricated and tested for the toroidal field (TF) coil system of the Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research (KSTAR) device. The QP system is capable of protecting the TF SCM, which consists of 16 identical coils serially connected with a stored energy of 495 MJ at the design operation level at 35.2 kA per turn. Given that the power supply for the TF coils can only ramp up and maintain the coil current, the design of the QP system includes two features. The first is a basic fast discharge function to protect the TF SCM by a dump resistor circuit with a 7 s time constant in case of coil quench event. The second is a slow discharge function with a time constant of 360 s for a daily TF discharge or for a stop demand from the tokamak control system. The QP system has been successfully tested up to 40 kA with a short circuit and up to 34 kA with TF SCM in the second campaign of KSTAR. This paper describes the characteristics of the TF QP systems and test results of the plasma experiment of KSTAR in 2009.

Like composite material. the coil winding pack of the KSTAR (Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research) consist of multiphase element such as metallic jacket material for protecting superconducting cable, vacuum pressurized imprepregnated (VPI) insulation, and corner roving filler. For jacket material, four CS (Central Solenoid) Coils, $5^{th}$ PF (Poloidal Field) Coil, and TF (Toroidal Field Coil) use Incoloy 908 and $6-7^{th}$ PF coil, Cold worked 316LN. In order to analyze the global behavior of large coil support structure with coil winding pack, it is required to replace the winding pack to monolithic matter with the equivalent mechanical properties, i.e. Young's moduli, shear moduli due to constraint of total nodes number and element numbers. In this study, Equivalent Young's moduli, shear moduli, Poisson's ratio, and thermal expansion coefficient were calculated for all coil winding pack using Finite Element Method.

본 논문에서는 신경망을 이용한 토로이달 스위치드 릴럭턴스 모터(TSRM：Toroidal Switched Reluctance Motor)의 새로운 회전자 초기 위치 검출을 제안한다. 회전자의 초기 위치검출을 하기 위하여 서치 코일을 사용하는 경우 센서비용감소, 부피감소, 강인성 증대, 사용범위의 확대 등 많은 장점이 있다. 그러나 모터의 회전자가 초기에 회전하지 않기 때문에, 서치코일에 유기되는 기전력이 존재하지 않아 회전자의 초기 위치검출에 어려움이 있었다. 본 논문에서는 신경망을 사용하여 초기에 회전자가 정지해 있을 경우에도 회전자의 위치를 정확하게 추정하는 방법을 제안하였다. 위치추정 실험을 실시하여 회전자의 실제 위치와 추정위치를 비교함으로써 제안한 방법의 정확성과 유용성을 입증하였다.

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) using communications, sensors, and navigation equipment will play a key role in future warfare. Currently, UAVs are monitored to prevent misfire and accidents, and the conventional method adopted uses wires for data transmission and power supply. The repeated connection and disconnection of cables increases maintenance time and harms the connector. For convenience and stability, a wireless power transfer system to power UAVs is needed. Unlike other wireless power transfer (WPT) applications, the size of the receiving coils must be small, so that the WPT systems can be embedded inside space-limited UAVs. The small size reduces the coupling coefficient and transfer efficiency between the transmitting and the receiving coils. In this study, we propose a toroidal-shaped coil for a WPT system for UAVs with high coupling coefficient with minimum space requirements. For validation, conventional coils and the proposed toroidal-shaped coil were used and their coupling coefficient and power transfer efficiency were compared using simulated and measured results. The simulated and measured results were strongly correlated, confirming that the proposed WPT system significantly improved efficiency with negligible change in the space requirement.

토카막(Tokamak)에서는 플라즈마(plasma)로 불순불(impurity)의 유입을 방지하기 위해 고진공을 유지해야 하며 이를 위해 가열탈리(backing), 방전세정(discharge codanning) 등 wall conditioning이 기본적으로 요구된다. KT-1 토카막은 실험실 이전에 따른 해체로 인해 진공용기(vacuum vessel) 가 대기압 하에 수개월 동안 노출되어 있었기 때문에 재조립 후 가열 탈 리가 필수적이나 진공용기의 외부에 saddle loop coil을 비롯해 Rogowski, diamagnetic coil, poloidal field coil 등 많은 magnetic pick up coil 들이 설치되어 있어 열선 등 일반적인 방법으로 가열 탈 리가 어려운 상황이다. 따라서 KT-1 토카막에서는 전자석 코일에 상전원을 부가하였을 때 진공용기에 발생하는 유도가열 (inductive heatin)을 이용해 가열 탈리를 시도하였다. 유도 가열 탈리(inductive backing)는 토로이달 자장 코일(toroidal field coil)과 가열 저장 모일(ohmic heating coil)을 각각 이용하여 코일의 온도가 6$0^{\circ}C$ 이하가 유지되는 코일 전류 범위내에서 수행하였으며 먼저 이 둥 경우에 있어서 진공용기의 온도분포를 비교하엿다. 그리고 가열 탈리 기간 및 그 전, 후의 진공압력과 잔류기체 분압을 측정, 분석하였다. 유도가열에 의한 방법으로 KT-1 토카막에서 얻은 탈리온도는 12$0^{\circ}C$정도로 비교적 낮았으나 탈리 시간을 연장하여 탈리효과를 어느 정도 보상할 수 있으며 일반적인 가열 탈리가 여려운 경우 유도 가열 탈 리가 채택될 수 있는 또 하나의 방법이라 볼 수 있다.

TF magnet structures are the main structural components in the KSTAR magnet systems to protect the superconducting coils from mechanical, electrical, and thermal loads. TF coil structure supports CS and PF coil system. The inter-coil structure contains adjustable shear keys and conical bolts to provide pre-loading in toroidal direction and to resist against in-plane and out-of-plane forces that are the most critical loads on the TF magnet system. The conical bolts and shear keys are specially designed to assemble easily and to provide a convenient accommodation for a good alignment. The connection plate that is one of the prototype fabrications had been manufactured to study adjustability of conical bolts and shear keys for assembly of TF coil structure. We could measure the misalignments at the keyways and conical holes with the misalignment measuring instrument.

This paper deals with the position and torque control of a toroidal type rotor which has a magnetic bearing structure. The proposed magnetic bearing structure supports the rotor by the repulsive forces of permanent magnets, and has a two degree of freedom for rotor position when the rotor is rotating. Permanent magnets and coils in the stator allow for a two degree of freedom control of the rotor position and torque generation by reacting with permanent magnets of the rotor. The executed gyro actuator has a number of poles such as five-phase permanent magnet motors and 10 stator coils for the rotor position control. In this study, the verification of the stability of the magnetic bearing was conducted using the equation of motion when the rotor was rotating, and the coil current commutation method for the position control and torque generation was studied. As a result, the feasibility of the proposed structure and control was verified by simulations of Finite Element Method (FEM) and experiments using the executed gyro actuator.

This paper presents the intra capacitance modeling according to the winding method, section bobbin and coil structure for hybrid choke coil capable of the EMI attenuation of broad bands from lower frequency bands to higher frequency bands and high frequency type common-mode choke coil capable of the EMI attenuation of high frequency band used in the EMI Block of LED-TV SMPS. In case of high frequency type CM choke coil, it can be explained the parasitic capacitance of A type and section bobbin type winding methods among them is much smaller than the other. The first resonant frequency of the proposed CM choke coil tends to increase as the parasitic capacitance becomes small and its impedance characteristics also show improved performance as the first resonant frequency increases. In case of hybrid choke coil using rectangular copper wire, it has investigated its parasitic capacitance compared to CM choke coil of conventional toroidal type becomes small. Also it has confirmed through the experiment results that CE margin and RE margin in frequency bands 0.5MHz to 5MHz and 30MHz to 200MHz are respectively 10dB and 15dB greater than that of conventional type in case of one stage EMI filter structure adopting hybrid choke coil compared to two stage EMI Filter structure using two of each CM choke coil used in the lower and higher frequency bands or two of CM choke coil used in only the lower frequency bands. In the future, the hybrid choke coil and CM choke coil of high frequency type show it can be practically used in not only LED/LCD-TV SMPS but also several applications such as LED Lighting, Laptop Adapter, Server Power Supply and so on.

This paper presents a new method of detecting rotor position in Toroidal Switched Reluctance Motor(TSRM). In this paper, low cost and robust characteristics of rotor position detection method are focused in order to compensate for disadvantage of general sensors. Search coils wound through the hole of the stator poles are used for detection of the rotor position in TSRM. Rotor position detection is achieved through electromotive force patterns induced by time-varying flux linkage in the search coils and then adequate phase is excited for drive. The initial rotor position estimation method is also described. The validity of the method is verified by experimental results.
