펄스와전류탐상에서 탐상 신호는 주로 센서코일에 유도되는 기전력의 시간에 따른 변화를 측정하여 사용되었는데, 최근에는 홀센서(Hall sensor)로 측정한 신호를 사용하는 경우도 많아지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 펄스와전류탐상에서 나타나는 홀센서 신호를 수치적으로 모델링하여 예측하였다. 이를 위해 두께 측정을 위한 탐촉자를 설계하고 먼저 계단입력전류를 사용한 수치해석을 수행하여 홀센서를 사용하였을 경우의 신호를 예측하였다. 또한, 코일을 센서로 사용하였을 경우의 신호도 동시에 계산하였다. 수치모델링 결과로 예측된 홀센서 신호들은 실험 연구를 통해 보고된 신호들과 유사한 형태를 가지고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 그리고 피검사체의 두께 변화에 따른 두 신호들의 특성을 분석하고 비교해 본 결과, 홀센서 신호에서는 코일센서 신호에 비해 두께 변화를 판별하기 위한 정보가 더 적게 제공된다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 펄스입력전류를 사용한 경우의 탐상 신호들도 계산해 본 결과, 두 신호 모두 사용된 펄스의 폭이 지난 시간에는 계단입력전류를 사용한 경우의 응답이 반대가 되어 감소하는 형태로 나타난다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Three-phase current is reconstructed from the dc-link current in an AC machine drive with a single current sensor. Switching pattern modification methods, in which the magnitude of the effective voltage vector is secured over its minimum, are investigated to accurately reconstruct the three-phase current. However, the existing methods that modify the switching pattern cause voltage and current distortions that degrade sensorless performance. This paper proposes a variable-magnitude voltage signal injection method based on a high frequency voltage signal injection. The proposed method generates a voltage reference vector that ensures the minimum magnitude of the effective voltage vector by varying the magnitude of the injection signal. This method can realize high quality current reconstruction without switching pattern modification. The proposed method is verified by experiments in a 600W Interior permanent magnet synchronous machine (IPMSM) drive system.

This paper introduces the multi-coil eddy current sensor and its characteristic in magnetic material gas turbine rotor. In the past, magnetic particle inspection method was used for qualitative defect evaluation in magnetic material gas turbine rotor. And the ultrasonic inspection method was used for quantitative defect evaluation. Nowadays, eddy current method is used in magnetic gas turbine rotor inspection due to advanced sensor design technology. We developed multi-coil eddy current sensor for the rotor dovetail inspection. At first, rotor stress is analyzed for the determination of sensor position and number. The sensor coils are designed to cover the stress concentration area of rotor dovetail. We select optimum frequency according to material standard penetration data and experiment results. The rotor mock-up and artificial defects were made for the signal detection and resolution analysis of multi-coil eddy current sensor. The results show that signal detection and resolution capabilities are enhanced in comparison to the commercialized sensor enough for the gas turbine rotor inspection. So, this developed multi-coil eddy current sensor substituted for commercialized one and it applied in real gas turbine rotor inspection.

A DC current sensor is disclosed in which two pairs of saturable cores are provided so as enclose a conductor carrying a direct current to be measured. On each of the saturable cores, a bias winding, a feedback winding and an output winding are wound. Circuit for detection of an asymmetry in the magnetization current, generated by a reference alternating voltage, in a signal-conditioner. The reference alternating voltage is fed to the respective series circuits such that no resultant induction current is induced in the modulating current. The voltages over the resistor form input signals for two peak value detectors, the strength of the output signal of which represents the degree of asymmetry of magnetization current.

This paper introduces the special eddy current sensor and its characteristic for bolt hole defect evaluation in gas turbine rotor. In the past, Fluorescent penetration inspection method was used for qualitative defect evaluation in gas turbine rotor bolt hole. This method can defect the bolt hole defect but can not evaluate the defect size. Nowadays, eddy current method is used quantitative defect evaluation due to advanced sensor design technology. And eddy current method is more time and cost saving than the old method. We developed bolt shape eddy current sensor for the rotor bolt hole defect detection and evaluation. The eddy current sensor moves to the bolt hole guided by screw nut and detects the defect on the bolt hole. The bolt hole mock-up and artificial defects were made and used for the signal detection & resolution analysis of eddy current sensor. The results show that signal detection capability is enough to detect 0.2 mm depth defect. And the resolution capability is enough to differentiate 02, 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 mm depth defect.

This paper presents a wide-range speed control scheme of brushless DC (BLDC) motors based on a hall sensor with separated low- and normal-speed controllers. However, the use of the hall sensor signal is insufficient to detect motor speed in the low-speed region because of low sensor resolution and time delay. In the proposed method, a micro-stepping current control method according to the torque angle variation is presented. In this mode, the motor current frequency and rotating angle are determined by the reference speed without the actual speed fed by the hall sensor. The detected torque angle is used to adjust the current value in a limited band to control the current value in accordance with the load. The torque angle is detected exactly at the changing point of the hall sensor signal. The rotor can follow the rotating flux with the variable torque angle. In a normal speed range, the conventional vector control scheme is used to control the motor current with a PI speed controller using the hall sensor. The torque characteristics are analyzed on the basis of the back EMF and current shape. To adopt the vector control scheme, the continuous rotor position is estimated by the measured speed and hall sensor position. At the mode changing point between low and normal speed range, the proper initial current command and reference rotor position are calculated. The calculated current command can reduce the torque ripple during transient mode. The proposed method is simple but effective in extending the speed control range of a conventional BLDC motor with hall sensor without the need for a high-resolution encoder. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by various experiments on a practical BLDC motor.

Recent years have seen an increasing range of planar Hall resistive (PHR) sensor applications in the field of magnetic sensing. This study describes a new application of the PHR sensor to monitor a current. Initially, thermal drift experiments of the PHR sensor are performed, to determine the accuracy of the PHR signal output. The results of the thermal drift experiments show that there is no considerable drift in the signals attained from 0.1, 0.5, 1 and 2 mA current. Consequently, the PHR sensor provides adequate accuracy of the signal output, to perform the current monitoring experiments. The performances of the PHR sensor with bilayer and trilayer structures are then tested. The minimum detectable currents of the PHR sensor using bilayer and trilayer structures are $0.51{\mu}A$ and 54 nA, respectively. Therefore, the PHR sensor having trilayer structure is the better choice to detect ultra low current of few tens nanoampere.

본 논문은 CMOS 자기센서(hall Sensor)의 오프셋 및 1/f 잡음 제거기술 기반 고선형 자기센서 신호처리장치를 제안한다. 제안하는 자기센서는 자계(magnetic Field)를 감지하여 자계의 변화량에 따른 홀 전압(hall Voltage)을 출력하는 홀 플레이트(hall Plate)와 홀 플레이트 출력 신호의 오프셋과 1/f 잡음 제거 및 디지털화를 위한 자기센서 신호처리시스템으로 구성된다. 자기센서 신호처리 시스템은 스피닝 전류 바이어싱(spinning current biasing)을 통해 자기신호로부터 오프셋과 1/f잡음 성분을 분리하고, 초퍼 및 증폭기를 통해 자기신호를 100 kHz 주파수 대역으로 변조한다. 60 kHz 차단주파수를 갖는 고역통과필터(highpass filter)를 사용하여 오프셋 및 1/f 잡음을 제거한뒤 ADC(analog to digital converter)를 통해 자기신호만을 디지털 변조한다. 증폭기 및 고역통과필터 출력은 자기신호 -53.9 dBm @ 100 kHz, 잡음성부은 -101.3 dBm @ 10 kHz이다. 최종적으로 ADC를 통과한 자기센서 출력은 -5.0 dBm @ 100 kHz이고, 오프셋 및 1/f 잡음은 -55.0 dBm @ 10 kHz이다.
