The purpose of this paper is to analyze and design a new hybrid electromagnetic linear actuator for linear pumps. Solenoid linear actuator is widely used because it occupies small space due to no mechanical energy conversion system. In addition, the energy loss is very low and it has no noise. Conventional solenoid linear actuator, however, has the critical drawback of high power consumption. In this research, we present a new hybrid electromagnetic linear actuator using a permanent magnet in order to reduce power consumption. The enhanced performance of the hybrid linear actuator was verified by dynamic finite element analysis.

In this paper, it has been investigated that the design and simulation of vacuum pump driven by linear motor. Vacuum pump consists of unified plunger and piston part, coils, inlet valve and outlet valve. Operating principal of vacuum pump show that air is to flow to go inside through the inlet valve when the magnetic force (16N) is exerted, whereas, air is to flow to go outside through outlet valve when spring farce (14.8N) is exerted. The results of simulation. it was turned out that reached vacuum pressure was about -0.55 bar at 150 seconds, magnetic force was loaded with 16 Newton, displacement of actuator was about 8mm.

Pumping liquid metal in nuclear power plant application by conventional centrifugal pumps pose difficulties such as bearing wear out at high temperatures and leak proof sealing of the liquid metal. MHD machine is obtained by replacing solid conducting secondary of conventional motors with ionized gas or liquid metal. It is used for reactor cooling pump because of construction simplicity, perfect sealing and easy operation/maintenance MHD pump is complicated because it includes electromagnetic and hydrodynamic phenomena. The principle of MHD Pumps is described in this paper. We design small laboratory size Flat Linear Induction Pump(FLIP) for transferring sodium.

We investigated an operating characteristic of linear-type magnetic flux pump (LTMFP) as a current compensator under the various conditions. In order to explain the mechanism of the LTMFP, the magnetic behavior of superconducting Nb foil according to pumping actions should be understood. In this paper, the magnetic field analysis of superconducting Nb foil installed in LTMFP has been performed based on the three-dimensional finite element method (3D FEM). Through the simulation analysis, the normal spot region on the superconducting Nb foil is found to be enhanced swiftly over about 20 Hz. The simulated finding agreed with an analytical estimation based on the phenomenon of magnetic diffusion.

We already obtained magnetic behavior of superconducting Nb foil of linear type magnetic flux pump (LTMFP) by means of the FEM analysis. As well as, fundamental equations of pumping current were theoretically derived based on the pumping sequences according to the position of normal spot of the moving flux. In this paper, we experimentally investigated pumping performances of LTMFP with a wide range of traveling speed of magnetic field. In order to confirm the numerical and theoretical approaches, we explained the pumping characteristics of LTMFP by use of the calculation sequence of pumping current.

We proposed a linear type magnetic flux pump (LTMFP) as a power supply for superconducting magnet system. In order to explain the operating mechanism of pumping action, the pumping sequence based on penetrated position and moving speed of magnetic flux on the superconducting Nb foil should be understood. In this paper, we induced a theoretical equation for pumping current of LTMFP according to the position of normal spot and corresponding equivalent circuit. In addition, current charging tendencies under the intensity of magnetic flux and frequency were described based on the theoretical pumping equation.

최근 회전기계에 대한 세계적인 기술추세를 볼 때 해를 거듭할수록 더욱 정밀해지고 고속화에 대한 요구가 한층 증대되고 있으며 이러한 측면에서 여러 분야에 우수한 장점을 지니고 있는 능동적 자기베어링의 회전축계 활용에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 특히 프랑스를 중심으로 한 미국, 일본 등이 이에 대한 연구를 활발하게 수행하여 고속 공작기계 스핀들을 비롯한 고진공 펌프 및 각종 터어빈, 압축기 등에 실용화시키는 단계에 있다. 그러나 국내 관련기술에 대한 연구는 연구소, 학계를 중심으로 실험실적인 기초연구로서 부분적으로 수행하는 단계에 있으며 관련분야 활용을 위한 본격적인 연구는 수행되지 못하고 있는 실정이고 이를 실용화시키기 위한 일환으로 능동적 자기 베어링의 회전 축계를 구성하고 있는 요소기술 중 하나인 전력 증폭기의 개발이 이뤄져야 할 필요성이 있는데 본 논문에서는 네트웍 기반 전력 증폭기 개발을 시도하였다. 전력 증폭기는 크게 리니어 앰프와 스위칭 앰프로 구분된다. 리니어 앰프의 경우 회로가 간단하고 노이즈가 비교적 작다는 장점이 있지만 전력손실 및 발열이 크기 때문에 에너지 측면에서 저 효율이라는 점과 따로 방열판을 부착해야 한다는 단점을 가지고 있고, 스위칭 앰프의 경우 전력손실이 작은 반면, 회로가 비교적 복잡하고 노이즈의 발생 가능성이 높다는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에선 위 두 가지 방식을 혼합한 혼합형 전력 증폭기로 설계하였다. 또한 기존에 전력증폭기의 경우 상위 주제어기로부터 제어량을 아날로그 신호로 통신하기 때문에 발생할 수 있는 EMI 노이즈신호에 대한 대책을 세워야 하는데 본 연구를 통해 개발된 전력증폭기는 따로 보조제어기(TMS320LF2406A)를 두어 상위 주제어기에 전력증폭기의 상태값을 궤환할 수 있도록 명령 신호체계를 전체 시스템의 샘플링 시간을 고려하여 비교적 전송 속도가 빠른 CAN(Controller Area Network)으로 구축하여 주제어기와 전력 증폭기간에 양방향 통신이 가능하도록 하였다. 이로써 전력증폭기의 상태정보를 알 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 칩 설계기술의 발전으로 가격대 성능비가 우수한 DSP(TMS320LF2406A)를 이용하여 과거의 아날로그 방식의 명령신호체계를 디지털 신호체계로 바꿈으로써 네트웍을 통해 전력증폭기의 상태진단 가능성을 검증한다.
