Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors(PMSMs) have a wider range of applications due to their high output density and high efficiency. PMSMs are used not only in high-power density, high-performance motor-driven systems such as vehicle and robots, but also in systems where cost-cutting is very important, such as washing machines, air conditioners and refrigerators. To reduce costs, position sensorless control is required, which is generally difficult to be used under conditions of starting the motor. Thus, the I-F speed control that rotates the current vector at any speed in the starting procedure should be used at first, and then the sensorless speed control could be applied after PMSM rotates above a certain speed. Speed control performance in I-F speed control and sensorless speed control is very important. And more speed control performance should be maintained even in the transient in which the two control techniques are changed. In this paper, the speed controller transition method from I-F speed control to sensorless speed control of permanent magnet synchronous motor is proposed. Experiments were carried out on the washing machine drive system to verify the performance of the proposed technique.

In this paper, a method of constructing an inverter circuit that can generate negative voltage required to operate an IT device in a stable using an inexpensive buck device is presented. To do this, the problem of constructing the inverter circuit using the existing buck device was examined, the principle that could prevent this problem was analyzed, and a circuit that could solve this problem was presented. In order to prove the effectiveness of the proposed method, the experimental circuit was constructed and the experiment was conducted. Compared to the operation of the inverter circuit by the existing overcurrent prevention circuit, it was confirmed that the stable operation was performed without an overcurrent phenomenon. Accordingly, it is expected that the performance of the circuit can be greatly improved while a number of peripheral devices for configuring the devices for processing various analog signals used in IT devices as a single power supply can be omitted.

The paper describes the variation of magnetic fields caused by the operation of induction motors. The measuring system consists of the self-integrating magnetic field sensor, amplifier, and active integrator. From the calibration experiments, the frequency bandwidth of the magnetic field measuring system ranges from 20[Hz] to 300[kHz] and sensitivity is 0.234(mV/$\mu\textrm{T}$]. The magnetic fields generated under steady state and starting operations of duction motor are recorded by the proposed measuring system, and the fast Fourier transformation(FFT) of the measured data is performed to analyze the harmonic components. A single pulsed magnetic field is strongly caused by direct starting the induction motor, and its peak value is greater than 5 times as compared with the steady state value. The long transient duration and high intensity originates from the large inductance and dynamic characteristic of the induction motor, During the steady state operation of induction motor, subharmonics of magnetic field components, which depend on the pole number of induction motor, are observed. The lower order power-line harmonics can be inferred from the voltage flicker and current ripple which are derived from the torque fluctuation of induction motor. In the case of the induction motor drived by inverter, the harmonics of magnetic field are much more than those caused by direct starting method and are found generally to increase with decreasing the driving frequency.

The device performance of nano-scale center-channel (CC) double-gate (DG) MOSFET structure was investigated by numerically solving coupled Schr$\"{o}$dinger-Poisson and current continuity equations in a self-consistent manner. The CC operation and corresponding enhancement of current drive and transconductance of CC-NMOS are confirmed by comparing with the results of DG-NMOS which are performed under the condition of 10-80 nm gate length. Device optimization was theoretically performed in order to minimize the short-channel effects in terms of subthreshold swing, threshold voltage roll-off, and drain-induced barrier lowering. The simulation results indicate that DG-MOSFET structure including CC-NMOS is a promising candidates and quantum-mechanical modeling and simulation calculating the coupled Schr$\"{o}$dinger-Poisson and current continuity equations self-consistently are necessary for the application to sub-40 nm MOSFET technology.

Faulty electric motors onboard vessels with anomalies in windings or poor insulation are usually repaired at land based workshops and reinstalled in place by crew hands after receiving the repaired motors. Especially for 3 phase induction motors which need Y-${\delta}$ starters with 6 lead wires, it would happen that the polarities of stator windings cannot be well distinguished if the original tags of these wires are erased or not visible clearly, resulting in subsequent damage to the repaired motor due to extreme current flow when the power is given to the motor the stator windings of which are wrongly connected in the polarity. This study proposes an easy way to make correct connection in winding polarities without failures based on the electro-magnetically induced voltages on windings when a slight DC current is supplied to a winding coil by using an analog multi-tester. The proposed method is applied to actual motors and delves into the applicability for polarity discrimination through a few measurements onboard vessels.

In this paper, computer simulations of the physical Phenomena occurring in the arc region before and after current zero were carried out to evaluate the thermal recovery characteristics of a Laval nozzle. A commercial CFD program "PHOENICS" is used for the simulation and the user-coded subroutines to consider the arcing phenomena were added to this program by the authors. The computed results were verified by the comparison with the test results presented by the research group of GE Co.(General Electric Company). In order to investigate the state of the arc region after current zero, the simulation was carried out with three steps. They are steady state arc simulation, transient arc simulation before current zero, and transient hot-gas flow simulation after current zero. The semi-experimental arc radiation model is adapted to consider the radiation energy transport and Prandtl's mixing length model is employed as the turbulence model. The electric field and the magnetic field were calculated with the same grid structure used for the simulation of the flow field. The post-arc current was calculated to evaluate the thermal recovery characteristics after current zero. Compared with the results obtained by GE Co., it has been found that the critical RRRV(ratio of rise of recovery voltage) will be determined previously by this study.his study.

The torque of the SRM((Switched Reluctance Motor)) is proportional to the inductance slope, so it has a non-linear torque characteristic, and has a disadvantage in that the torque pulsation is large and noise is severe. In particular, the biggest obstacle to the commercialization of SRM is the pulsating torque generated from the rotating shaft, which has various adverse effects not only on the device itself but also on the peripheral devices. Therefore, various methods for reducing the pulsating torque have been published by domestic and foreign researchers, and there is a study result that the hysteresis controller has an advantage in that it can flow a smooth current compared to the chopping control. However, in determining the hysteresis band, if the band is too small, it has a disadvantage in that it may cause a switching loss due to many switching and an unstable initial start when the encoder is used. Therefore, in this paper, a variable hysteresis controller that can reduce torque ripple in a steady state while having a more stable and fast speed response through the change of the hysteresis band according to the speed error.

In this paper, since the APD(Avalanche Photo Diode) for LTV(Light to Voltage) conversion uses a high voltage in the operating range unlike other PD(Photo Diode)s, the quenching resistor must be connected in series to prevent overcurrent when using the TIA(Transimpedance Amplifier). In such a case, quenching resistance may affect the transfer function of the TIA circuit, resulting in serious stability. Therefore, in this paper, by analyzing the effect of APD quenching resistance on the voltage and current loop transfer function of TIA, we propose a loop analysis and a method for determining the quenching resistance value to improve stability. TIA circuit with quenching resistance was designed by the proposed method and the stability of operation was verified through simulation and chip fabrication.
