This study was carried out to investigate the effects of activated carbon (AC) on growth, ruminal charateristics, blood profiles and feed digestibility in sheep, using roughage-based or concentrate-based diets. Twelve Suffolk breed of sheep of similar age and weight were distributed into 4 groups in a $2{\times}2$ factorial design. Two groups were fed a roughage-based diet with (R + AC) and without AC (R - AC), while the other two were fed a concentrate-based diet with (C + AC) and without AC (C - AC), respectively. The addition of 0.3% AC was based on dry matter of feed offered to animals. The incorporation of AC in roughage and concentrate based diets had no marked effects on feed intake, daily gain and feed conversion of the animals within experimental diets. The results obtained might be due to the low level of AC added in the diet. The animal on both concentrate-based diets were higher than the roughage-based diets in terms of daily gain and feed conversion ratio. However, it was observed that the animals provided with AC in the concentrate-based diet did not suffer from diarrhea and easily adjusted to high concentrate feeding. Further, the pH value for all diets before feeding was noted to be similar. After feeding, however, pH was shown to be higher in R + AC (p < 0.05) than in C + AC diet. Rumen protozoa number was decreased after feeding for both + AC diets, but in C - AC diet it was higher than in the roughage-based diets. For ammonia-nitrogen, C - AC was found to be higher than C + AC diet and the roughage-based diets before feeding. Total volatile fatty acid concentration, propionate and valerate molar ratios for both diets and time of collection were not affected. However, acetate, butyrate and valerate molar ratios were observed to be affected by diets and time of collections. The diets with AC increased (p < 0.05) before feeding for acetate molar ratio, but not different within diet, however, the roughage diets were found to be higher (p < 0.05) in acetate than the concentrate diet. In the blood parameters, the glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT), red and white blood cell (RBC, WBC) counts and packed cell volume (PCV) did not differ within and among the diets. Likewise, the WBC differential count in both diets with either - AC or + AC were similar in trend. However, lymphocyte count was noted to be increased in R + AC than the R - AC diet. The addition of AC in both diets did not affect nutrient digestibilities within diets.

In this paper, a three-phase AC-DC high step-up converter is developed for application to microscale wind-power generation systems. Such an AC-DC boost converter prossessess the property of the single-switch high step-up DC-DC structure. For power factor correction, the advanced half-stage converter is operated under the discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). Simulatanously, to achieve a high step-up voltage gain, the back half-stage functions in the continuous conduction mode (CCM). A high voltage gain can be obtained by use of an output-capacitor mass and a coupled inductor. Compared to the output voltage, the voltage stress is decreased on the switch. To lessen the conducting losses, a low rated voltage and small conductive resistance MOSFETs are adopted. In addition, the coupled inductor retrieves the leakage-inductor energy. The operation principle and steady-state behavior are analyzed, and a prototype hardware circuit is realized to verify the performance of the proposed converter.

일반적으로 압전변압기는 고압을 출력하는 전원장치로 사용되고 있으나, 최근 어댑터와 같은 AC/DC 전원장치에 이를 채용하려는 움직임이 활발히 전개되고 있다. AC/DC 컨버터의 소형 경량화론 위해 기존의 권선형 변압기 대신 압전변압기는 AC/DC 컨버터용이 아닌 LCD 백-라이트구동용으로 제작된 압전변압기(piezoelectric transformer)를 사용하여 AC/DC 컨버터의 기본 특성을 고찰하고자 한다. 압전변압기의 재질, 특성 값으로부터 등가회로의 모델링을 수행하고, 이를 시뮬레이션과 실험을 통하여 검증한다.

PWM Buck AC-AC 컨버터는 최근 들어 전압 또는 전력 레귤레이터, 전자식 변압기, 위상 천이기와 같은 산업현장의 다양한 응용분야에 폭넓게 사용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 PWM Buck AC-AC 컨버터의 정적 및 동적 모델링과 완전한 특성 해석을 제시한다. 먼저, 3상의 컨버터 시스템은 DQ 변환 기법에 의하여 모델링 되고 그에 따라 전압이득과 역률과 같은 기본적인 특성식을 구하고 제어를 위한 시스템의 상태 방정식과 전달함수를 구한다. 다음으로, 이러한 해석에 기초하여 매우 빠른 동적 응답을 갖도록 순시적인 듀티 변동이 가능한 feedforward-feedback 제어기법을 제안한다. 끝으로, 실험결과를 통하여 이러한 모델링과 해석 및 제어가 유효함을 확인할 수 있다.

In this paper, we propose a controller capable of reducing the effect of measurement errors under AC and DC noise. Typically, the control system measures data through a sensor. If sensor noise is included in a controller via the feedback channel, the signal is distorted and the entire system cannot work normally. Therefore, some appropriate action to counter the measurement error effect is essential in the controller design. Our controller is equipped with a gain-scaling factor and a compensator to reduce the effect of measurement error in the feedback signal. Also, we use a switching control strategy to enhance the performance of the controller regarding convergence speed. Our proposed controller can therefore effectively reduce the AC and DC noise of the sensor. We analyze the proposed controller by Laplace transform technique and our control method is verified via MATLAB simulation.

In this paper, we propose a controller for a ball and beam system which reduces the measurement error effect under AC and DC noise. The ball and beam system measures data through a sensor. If sensor noise is included in a controller via the feedback channel, the signal is distorted and the entire system cannot work normally. Therefore, some appropriate action for the measurement error effect is essential in the controller design. Our controller is equipped with a gain-scaling factor and a compensator to reduce the effect of measurement error in the feedback signal. Effectively, our proposed controller can reduce the AC and DC noise of a feedback sensor. We analyze the proposed controller by Laplace transform technique and illustrate the improved control performance via an experiment for a ball and beam system.

This paper includes AC servo motor speed control usig the predictive control strategy. Generally, AC servo motor control should have the fast response characteristics. For the issue, sliding mode control and PID control have been applied. However, the former has the speed ripple response due to the chattering and the latter requires the many trial efforts. Originally, the predictive control which has been used in process control area does not need the priori knowledge for the application system and it is easy to compute the optimal gain with the prediction. In this paper, the TMS320C31 DSP pocessor is used for AC motor control with fst dynamics and the tuning guid-line for the parameters of the predictive control algorithm is given in order to reduce the computation load. Also, the actuator saturationis implemented uisngthe QP(Quadratic Programming) method and the transient response is improved by the identified intertia coefficient when AC motor is drived at forward/reverse rotation.

본 논문에서 보청기를 위한 개별 BJT 소자의 효과적인 바이어스 회로를 제안한다. 보청기에 널리 사용되는 컬렉터 귀환 바이어스 회로는 부귀환 저항을 가지고 있다. 이 저항은 AC와 DC에 동시에 영향을 줌으로서 DC 바이어스 점의 변화 없이 증폭기의 이득을 변화시키기 어렵다. 또한 기존회로는 보청기의 이득이 높을 경우 전원 잡음의 정귀환으로 발진할 수 있는 단점이 있다. 제안된 회로는 컬렉터 귀환 바이어스회로에 베이스와 전원 사이에 컬렉터 저항보다 β배 더 큰 저항을 추가하여 기존회로의 두 가지 단점을 줄일 수 있다. 제안된 회로에서 DC 바이어스 점의 변화 없이 증폭기의 이득을 변경 할 수 있고 모의실험에서 기존회로보다 전원 잡음 이득을 18.5%정도 감소시킬 수 있다.

A novel half load-cycle worked dual input single output (DISO) DC/AC inverter is presented. The basic circuit consists of a dual buck regulator, which works in continuous current mode. The working principle of DISO DC/AC inverter has been used. The control method applied for half load-cycle worked DISO DC/AC inverter has been studied. The control effects of the open-loop proportional control and closed-loop proportional-integral control are compared by using PSIM software. The parameters are adopted in the realistic simulation and experiment test. Moreover, the waveforms, such as voltage of modulation reference signal and output voltage, were given. The simulation and experiment results proved that the half load-cycle worked DISO DC/AC inverter could achieve good performance, gain a line frequency of 50 Hz, and verify the correctness of theoretical analysis.
