The objective of this study was to determine the effect of refrigerant heat exchanger on the performance of type II absorption heat pump performance using numerical analysis. Two heat exchange installation methods were used: solution to refrigerant and waste hot water to refrigerant. These methods were compared to the standard model of hot water flow without using refrigerant heat exchanger. When waste hot waters were bypassed to refrigerant heat exchanger, COP was not affected. However, steam mass generation rates were increased compared to those of the standard model. When solutions were bypassed to the refrigerant heat exchanger, results were different depending on the place where the solution rejoined. COP and steam mass generation rates were lower compared to those when waste heat water was passed to refrigerant heat exchanger. Thus, it is possible to obtain higher steam mass generation rates by using waste water and installing refrigerant heat exchanger.

This paper presents the robust design of each component used in the development of an induction bolt heating system for dismantling the high-temperature high-pressure casing heating bolts of turbines in power plants. The induction bolt heating system comprises seven assemblies, namely AC breaker, AC filter, inverter, transformer, work coil, cable, and CT/PT. For each of these assemblies, the various failure modes are identified by the failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) method, and the causes and effects of these failure modes are presented. In addition, the risk priority numbers are deduced for the individual parts. To ensure robust design, the insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT), switched-mode power supply (SMPS), C/T (adjusting current), capacitor, and coupling are selected. The IGBT is changed to a field-effect transistor (FET) to enhance the voltage applied to the induction heating system, and a dual-safety device is added to the SMPS. For C/T (adjusting current), the turns ratio is adjusted to ensure an appropriate amount of induced current. The capacitor is replaced by a product with heat resistance and durability; further, coupling with a water-resistant structure is improved such that the connecting parts are not easily destroyed. The ground connection is chosen for management priority.

In this research Sagnac interferometer three different types of mandrel are suggested and this fiber optic sensor is using in monitoring of electric transformer. Vibration characteristics of those mandrels were analyzed and finally more sensitivity mandrel are suggested. Three different mandrels using in fiber optic sensor are hollow cylinder with outer bump, pure hollow cylinder, hollow cylinder with inner bump. Natural frequencies and mode shapes are investigated using finite element method. Mode shape are considered at the frequency range from 2 kHz to 20 kHz. Fundamental dimensions of the hollow cylinder type's mandrel are 30 mm in outer diameter, 50 mm in length, 1 mm in cylinder thickness, $2mm{\times}2mm$ in bump size. Based on the finite element results, when the outer acoustic frequency is near 11 kHz outer bump type and hollow cylinder can get higher sensitivity. Near 17 kHz outer bump and inner bump mandrel can get higher sensitivity. Near 20 kHz hollow cylinder and inner bump mandrel is useful. This results can be applied to design of fiber optic sensor using in monitoring the electrical transformer. Several MHz of outer acoustic frequency can be easily detected using more sensitive mandrel in pursuing expand this technique.

PHEV(Plug in Hybrid Electric Vehicle) and BEV(Battery Electric Vehicle) equip high voltage batteries to drive motor and vehicle electric system. Those vehicle require OBC(On-Board Charger) for charging batteries and LDC(Low DC/DC Converter) for converting from high voltage to low voltage. Since the charger and the converter actually separate each other in electrical vehicles, there is a margin to reduce the vehicle weight and area of installation by integration two systems. This paper studies a 1.5kW LDC converter that can be integrated into an OBC using an isolated current-fed converter by simplifying the design of LDC transformers. The proposed LDC can control the final output voltage of the LDC by using a fixed arbitrary output voltage of the bidirectional buck-boost converter, so that Compared to the existing OBC-LDC integrated system, it has the advantage of simplifying the transformer design considering the battery voltage range, converter duty ratio and OBC output turn ratio. Prototype of the proposed LDC was made to confirm normal operation at 200V ~ 400V input voltage and maximum efficiency of 91.885% was achieved at rated load condition. In addition, the OBC-LDC integrated system achieved a volume of about 6.51L and reduced the space by 15.6% compared to the existing independent system.

In this paper, we propose the hardware architecture of two-dimensional discrete wavelet transform (2D DWT) and quantization for using JPEG2000. Color 2-D DWT processor is proposed that is to apply to JPEG 2000 Hard-wired Encoder. JPEG 2000 DWT processor uses the Daubechies' (9,7) bi-orthogonal filter, and we design by minimizing error of the DWT transformer by ${\pm}1$ LSB during compression and decompression. We designed the DWT filters that using by using shift and adder structure instead of multiplier structure which raise the hardware complexity. It is improve the operation speed of filters and reduce the hardware complexity. The proposed system is designed by the hardware description language Verilog-HDL and verified by Synopsys Design Analyzer using TSMC 0.25${\mu}m$ ASIC library.

A Simple equivalent circuit model is developed for a wireless energy transfer system via coupled magnetic resonances and a practical design method is also provided. Node equations for the resonance system are built with the method, expanding on the equations for a transformer, and the optimum distances of coils in the system are derived analytically for optimum coupling coefficients for high transfer efficiency. In order to calculate the frequency characteristics for a lossy system, the equivalent model is established at an electric design automation tool. The model parameters of the actual system are extracted and the modeling results are compared with measurements. Through the developed model, it is seen that the system can transfer power over a mid-range of a few meters and impedance matching is important to achieve high efficiency. This developed model can be used for a design and prediction on the similar systems such as increasing the number of receiving coils and receiving modules, etc.

The conventional CCFL (Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp) inverter used in the backlight unit for LCD-TV, composed of the three power stage, can degrade the whole power conversion efficiency. In this paper, a novel scheme to drive the CCFL, composed only of the two power stage without using a dc/dc power stage, is proposed to enhance the whole power conversion efficiency. By adopting the proposed "4-in-1 Transformer", the current balance and the simultaneous ignition among the four CCFL lamp are assured with the one inverter circuit. The proposed scheme features the simple circuit structure, which can save the volume and the cost in the LCD backlight unit. Design considerations are discussed and design procedures are derived. Experimental results of the proposed scheme for 40" LCD-TV are presented to confirm the theoretical analysis.

Current transformer (CT) saturation may cause a variety of protective relays to malfunction. The conventional CT is designed that it can carry up to 20 times the rated current without exceeding 10% ratio error. However, the possibility of CT saturation still remains if the fault current contains substantial amounts of ac and/or dc components. This paper presents a design method of iron-cored CTs for use with protective relays to prevent CT saturation. The proposed design method determines the core cross section of the CT; it employs the transient dimensioning factor to consider relay's operating time (duty cycle) and dc component as well as ac components contained in the fault current, and symmetrical short-circuit current factor to consider as well as ac components contained in the fault current, and symmetrical short-circuit current factor to consider the biggest fault current. The method designs the cross section of CTs in cases of reclosure and no reclosure.
