It is necessary to measure the direct current with a non-contact methodology for the liquid or gas phase, as welt as the conducting metals. This paper described a theoretical consideration and experimental verification for a non-contact quantitative direct current measurement system using the Faraday effect and magnetic flux leakage. The leakage of magnetic flux occurs around a gap when a ferromagnetic core including the discontinuous gap is magnetized. Two large anisotropic domains in a magneto-optical film are occurred by the vertical component of leaked magnetic flux and the domain walls are paralleled to the center of the gap. Here, the symmetrical arrangement of domains are deflected when a vertical magnetic field is applied to the magneto-optical film. The domain wall of the magneto-optical film are relocated when a measuring current passes through the ferromagnetic core. Therefore, a direct current passing through the core can be determined quantitatively by the measurement of moving distance of the domain wall.

Pulse current was empolyed to the chromium electroplating bath of self-regulating high speed in the following range of conditions; 10-80$^{\circ}C$, 0-400A/$dm^2$, 10-100KHz. The current efficiency was compared with that of a conventional direct current plating in respect of current density and electrode interdistance. The effect of pulse current was found to increase the current efficiency at least 10-20 percent more than the conventional direct current plating in the high current density more than 100A/$dm^2$ and at 3-4mm of electrode interdistance. The surface appearance was also studied and known to be of great influenced by pulse frequency.

This paper proposes an estimation algorithm of phase currents of inverter systems with the planar bus bars for brush-less DC (BLDC) motors. The planar bus bar can improve the characteristic of the EMC(Electro-Magnetic Compatibility). In these inverters, a single current sensor of the dc-link measures the sum of a smooth capacitor current and phase currents of brush-less DC motor. Thus, it is essential to extract phase currents from the measured single current to control BLDC motor. Therefore, in this paper, the phase current is estimated by analyzing equivalent circuits of the BLDCM in ON and OFF periods of switching elements. The usefulness of the proposed algorithm is verified through experimental results.

DC transit system has been adopted in the metropolitan area, Korea since 1974. Electric multiple (EMU) in this system always reiterates that acceleration and retardation. When EMU decelerates using electric breaking, regenerative power occurs. Regenerative power can be consumed in vicinity EMU on the same line or in resistor. If DC transit system has inverter for reusing regenerative power, Energy efficiency in DC transit system and the replacement cycle of brake shoe in EMU will be increased and dust due to mechanical braking decreased. This paper present the developed inverter for regenerative power and its test equipment. Test for developed inverter is performed at test equipment and is divided into three items, which are regeneration mode, active filter mode, and system link test.

Internet Data Centers (IDCs), which are resulted by the rapid progress of Information Technology industry, consist of high-density digital loads with internet server systems. Introduction of DC distribution system may simplify the conventional electric power conversion system, and may result in the improvement of electric power efficiency. However, this conjecture has never been tested under Korean IDC environment. In this study, electric power efficiency of DC distribution system from KT Namsuwon IDC is contrasted with that of conventional AC distribution system from KT Bundang IDC. DC 48[V] based distribution system showed 13.2[%] higher efficiency than the conventional AC based distribution system. The further analysis with the assumption of DC 380[V] suggests efficiency improvement over 25[%] can be achieved.

This paper suggest away to maintain constant power through trolley wire by transferring increased line voltage to the AC main line while changing the mode from Converter(Forward) to Inverter(Reverse) when the line voltage is increased due to regenerative power when the train stops, This paper suggests a Double Converter DC substation that can create regenerative power when the train stops reusable. We also proposed using a simulation tool, the optimal Thyrister firing angle that can minimize the undershoot and overshoot that occurs when transferring the mode from Converter to Inverter for quality improvement of DC voltage in the Double Converter in the DC substation from the Busan Urban Subway.

In this study, we derived several formulas for magnetic fields and induced voltages in a parallel plate capacitor biased by DC voltages. The computer simulation based on the derived formulas reveals that the magnetic fields due to the displacement current fall within the range of 10^-10T to 10^-9T and thence the experiment for the displacement current is not possible because the magnetic field sensor used in Data Logger could measure the magnetic fields of above 10^-5T range. Contrary to this, the computer simulation confirms that the induced voltages in a toroidal coil due to the displacement current range measurable values of 0.002~0.021V. The results imply that the displacement current can be confirmed by measuring the induced voltages in a toroidal coil inserted into a parallel plate capacitor under DC biasing.

In this study, research and a demonstration for applying DC distribution systems to ships as an environmental and energy conservation solution in domestic and foreign countries were actively carried out. In order to apply a generator to a DC distribution system, a variable speed engine was used. Both engine speed and fuel consumption were reduced. In this paper, a DC generator for DC distribution was constructed using a diesel generator, a generator controller, a governor, and an AVR. A system configuration method for a generator, power quality test, and the power characteristics of a variable speed generator were analyzed. The voltage (250 - 440 VAC) and frequency (34 - 60 Hz) of the variable speed generator were set to 60 - 100 % of the rated value, and the engine was set to operate from 1100 - 1800 rpm. It was confirmed that the voltage, current, and frequency of the generator output fluctuated in a stable manner according to the power amount when changing the engine speed of the generator according to the load variation.

The purpose of this study was to compare the golf performance on transcranial direct current stimulation(tDCS). Ten collegiate golfers were participated. SAMPutt basic unit was used to analyze the kinematic data of putter head. A putting platform and a tDCS were used for putting tasks. It was performed paired t-test to compare between before tDCS and after tDCS. A significant level of .05 using SPSS 24.0. Face at aim and backswing variables of putter head were significantly different during flat putting. Impact spot of putter head was significantly different during 2° of hook slope. However, there were not significantly different others slope angle. It was found that transcranial direct current stimulation had a positive effect on kinematic variables. Based on these results, further research is needed to confirm the effect of transcranial direct current stimulation on body stability during putting task.
