In this study, methane gas adsorption ability of activated carbon (AC) with surface functional group effect, adsorbed methane amount was evaluated after nitric acid and ureatreatment of AC surface. Specific surface area and pore distribution of AC were studied though nitrogen adsorption isotherm at 77 K. Micro pore volume was calculated through H-K method. Adsorbed methane amount was evaluated through volume method at room temperature by using auto adsorption apparatus. Adsorbed methane amount of AC was found to increase with to specific surface area increase.Correlation proposed between the methane adsorption amount and surface nature indicates that the surface nature plays an important role on the adsorption amount at a given temperature.

EMI emission characteristics of 42" AC-PDP panel are investigated in this paper. First, EMI emission source was modeled the scan electrode and the sustain electrode to a simple electric and magnetic dipole type radiator. Second, EMI emission source was modeled as reconfigured the scan electrode and the sustain electrode. The primary source of EMI emission was investigated using FEM calculation of the wave impedance and 3 dB beam width. The third. the EMI emission level was estimated using the measured sustain electrode current. Also, EMI emission level of 42" AC-PDP was measured. The results show that the calculated EMI emission level from the simple electric dipole model was shown to agree with that from the corresponding FEM simulation.

This paper analyze scenario of feeder wire fault that occurs in the AC feeding system considering train position. The fault location of AC feeding system is calculated by measuring impedance. However, in this way, estimation error can be occurred because of tie connection, boosting current, etc. Therefore, it's hard to find fault location, so that it is required to detailed circuit analysis according to fault location. We analyze the short circuit impedance values with respect to feeder wire fault according to a train position. In this paper, PSCAD is used for modeling and analysis of AC railway feeding system.

In this paper, we used the V-Q Lissajous‘ figure for studying on the plasma discharge characteristics of the 42 inches AC-PDP. From the V-Q Lissajous‘ figure, we could observe exactly the driving conditions that the self-erasing discharge takes place. At the time, the total wall charges lessened by self-erasing discharge was calculated quantitatively. Beside of the just observation of self-erasing discharge and calculation of the charges lessened, we could find out the optimum driving conditions for inducing the maximum wall charges accumulated on the dielectric layer with measuring the Wall voltage from the V-Q Lissajous' figure.

The AC losses of BSCCO-2223 multifilamentary superconducting tapes were measured using magnetization method and compared with the results of theoretically calculated values. In general, AC losses in multifilamentary superconducting tapes could be quantitatively explained by the simple sum of the Hysteresis and Coupling Loss. As a result of experiment, We found that AC losses of multifilamentary superconducting tape increase rapidly in large magnetic field region.

AMR (Active Magnetic Regenerative) refrigerators require the large variation of the magnetic field and a HTS magnet can be used. The amount of AC loss is very important considering the overall efficiency of the AMR refrigerator. However, it is very hard to estimate the precise loss of the HTS magnet because the magnetic field distribution around the conductor itself depends on the coil configuration and the neighboring HTS wires interact each other through the distorted magnetic field by the screening current Therefore, the AC loss of HTS magnet should be calculated using the whole configuration of the HTS magnet with superconducting characteristic. This paper describes the AC loss of the HTS magnet by an appropriate FEM approach, which uses the non-linear characteristic of HTS conductor. The analysis model is based on the 2-D FEM model, called as 'magnetic field formulation and edge-element model', for whole coil configuration in cylindrical coordinates. The effects of transport current and stacked conductors on the AC loss are investigated considering the field-dependent critical current. The PDE model of 'Comsol multiphysics' is used for the FEM analysis with properly implemented equations for axisymmetric model.

AC loss is one of the important parameters in (High Temperature Superconducting)HTS AC devices. Among the HTS AC power devices, the transformer is the essential part in the electrical power system. But unfortunately, the transformer is the worst HTS device concerning AC loss because of very large magnetization loss due to high magnetic field applied to the HTS wire. We calculated the magnetization losses in HTS pancake windings for transformer according to the operating temperature. Two kinds of arrangement of HTS pancake windings were adopted for calculation of AC losses of a shell type transformer, and the analysis results were presented and discussed.

The full-bridge inverter, widely used for single-phase photovoltaic grid-connected applications, presents a leakage current issue. Therefore, an AC bypass branch is introduced to overcome this challenge. Nevertheless, existing modulation strategies entail drawbacks that should be addressed. One is the zero-crossing distortion (ZCD) of the AC current caused by neglecting the AC filter inductor voltage. Another is that the system cannot deliver reactive power because the AC bypass branch switches at the power frequency. To address these problems, this work proposes an optimized hybrid modulation strategy. To reduce ZCD, the phase angle of the inverter output voltage reference is shifted, thereby compensating for the neglected leading angle. To generate the reactive power, the interval of the negative power output is calculated using the power factor. In addition, the freewheeling switch is kept on when power is flowing into the grid and commutates at a high frequency when power is fed back to the DC side. In this manner, the dead-time insertion in the high-frequency switching area is minimized. Finally, the performances of the proposed modulation strategy and traditional strategies are compared on a universal prototype inverter. Experimental results validate the theoretical analysis.

With recent experiments to add He atoms to the Ne-Xe discharge gas mixture for high luminous efficiency PDPs, we have performed simulations on a coplanar structured AC-PDP sustained in the three species He-Ne-Xe gas mixture. We found that the correct ion mobilities are essential to get the meaningful simulation results. We determined ion mobilities in the mixture gas and presented the calculated results regarding the influence of ion mobilities on discharge characteristics.

Variety of methods were discussed to reduce the cogging force in tubular permanent magnet type linear single phase AC generator. In paticular, the proposed methods depend on the variations of the permanent magnet construction. These methods Include two approaches in the form of sloped magnets, and conical magnets in addition to the conventional method of varying the magnet length. The undesired cogging force ripples were calculated by a two dimensional Finite Element Method(FEM). Moreover, the generated electromotive force in the stator coils was calculated fur each configuration of the permanent magnet. The experimental results agreed well with those obtained from the FEM-based simulations. Sufficient reduction in the cogging force was achieved over the range of 40% while the root mean square of the output voltage was maintained. It was found that the sloping the permanent magnet decreased the cogging force and at the same time increased the generated rms voltage of the AC generator. The performance of the designed linear AC generator was evaluated in terms of its efficiency, total weight, losses, and power to weight ratio.
