This paper presents an identification method of parameters of induction motor which is driven by PWM voltage inverter. The method uses least square estimation based on the step voltage input and current response. Utilizing the fact that ratio of two characteristic roots is large in the induction motor circuit, we derived two 1st-order difference equations for direct computation of parameter values. experimental results are compared with conventional motor test results to demonstrate that the proposed method is capable of estimating parameters of induction motor at standstill.

Magnetization losses of a Bi-2223 tape in magnetic fields parallel to the tape surface were measured by a room temperature cancellation and a cryogenic temperature cancellation. The results indicate that the same loss data are observed for both methods. The magnetization losses are hysteretic because the measured losses agree well with calculated ones based on a critical state model. In the full field penetration cases the magnetization losses increase with the frequency but in the partial field penetration cases the influence of the frequency is opposite.

This paper deals with comparison of characteristics of continuous-sheet type low-Tc superconducting (LTS) power supply and discrete-sheet type LTS power supply. These characteristics have been analyzed through experiments. These power supplies consist of two exciters, a rotor, a stator, and a LTS load. A continuous-sheet type has a single continuous niobium (Nb) sheet attached to the inner surface of on the stator. In the case of discrete-sheet type, four separated Nb sheets are used. this experiment is using 1.81 mH LTS magnet load and maximum 30 A dc exciter current. A discrete-sheet type is expected to produce much better pumping rate than a continuous-sheet type. The experimental observations have been compared with the theoretical predictions. In this experiment, the maximum pumping-current has reached about 926 A.

Deadbeat technique has been proposed as a digital controller for an UPS inverter to achieve the fast, response to a load variation and to conserve a very low THD under a nonlinear load condition. This scheme contains a fatal drawback, sensitivity against parameter variation and calculation time delay. This paper proposes a second order deadbeat controller, which fundamentally solves the calculation time delay problem and certainly guarantees the robustness of the parameter's variation. RLP(Repetitive Load Predictor) which predicts the load current ahead of two sampling time and FVR(Fundamental Voltage Regulator) which eliminates the fundamental errors of the output voltage are also proposed for the second order deadbeat controller to apply to UPS inverter systems. These are shown theoretically and practically through simulation and experiment.

In recent years, the switching source devices have the advantage of small, light and high reliability with the high-frequency. But, high-frequency switching has disclosed disadvantage of result from stress and turn-on and turn-off peak losses at the switching instant. Accordingly, in this paper propose ZVS-HB type high-frequency resonant DC/DC converter using soft switching technique (Zero-Voltage-Switching, Zero-Current-Switching) with safety operating of circuit at diving on inductive zone, through the circuit design example using the capacitor $C_3,\;C_4$ with soft switching function and division characteristic of resonant Capacitor C, $C_1,\;C_2$, and, the characteristic analysis of circuit is generally described using normalized parameters. Also, this paper certified a rightfulness of characteristic analysis in comparison with a theoretical values and a experimental values obtain from experiment using MOSFET.

This paper presents a technique for reconstructing converter line currents using the information from a single current sensor in the DC-link for voltage-source PWM converters. When three-Phase input currents cannot be reconstructed, three methods to acquire the input current are compared. Two of them are methods of modifying the switching state (I, II), another is a method of using the predictive state observer. Also, compensation of sampling delay, and a simultaneous sample value of input currents in the center of a switching period are included. Suitable criteria for the comparison are identified, and the differences in the performance of these methods are investigated through experimental results for a typical V-S PWM converter rated at 10kVA.
