In this paper, author describe the simulation results concerning the period doubling bifurcation route to chaos of DC/DC boost converter under current mode control to show that it is common phenomena on switching regulator when parameters are improperly chosen or continuously varied beyond the ensured region by system designer. Bifurcation diagrams of periodic orbits of inductor current and capacitor voltage of DC/DC boost converter are plotted with sampled data at moment of each clock pulse causing switching on. DC/DC boost converter studied on this paper is modelled by its state space equations as per switching condition under continuous conduction mode. Current reference signal and capacitance are chosen as the bifurcation parameters and those are varied in step for iterative calculation to find bifurcation points of periodic orbits of state variables.

A bidirectional dc-dc converter is used in battery energy storage systems owing to the growing requirements of a charging and discharging mode of battery. The magnetic coupling of output or input inductors in parallel-connected multi modules of a bidirectional dc-dc converter is often utilized to reduce the peak-to-peak ripple size of the inductor current. This study proposes a novel design guideline to achieve minimal ripple size of the inductor current under bidirectional power flow. The newly proposed design guideline of optimized coupling factor is applicable to the buck and boost operation modes of a bidirectional dc-dc converter. Therefore, the coupling factor value of the coupled inductor does not have to be optimized separately for buck and boost operation modes. This new observation is explained using the theoretical model of coupled inductor and confirmed through simulation and experimental test.

The current-fed DC-DC converter, which is known as the most stable DC-DC converter, has a two-winding reactor in series with the input. In this paper the new multi-output DC-DC converter circuit, in which the 2nd winding of the reactor is creating the 2nd output, while the 2nd winding is feeding the energy to input in the current-fed converter, is proposed. The steady state characteristics of the new circuit are clarified. And it is found that the maximum value exists in the 2nd output.

최근 들어, 저전압·대전류 출력 특성을 갖는 연료전지를 위한 새로운 발전시스템이 주목받고 있다. 연료전지 발전시스템에서는 dc-dc 승압용 컨버터와 dc-ac 인버터가 필요하다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 연료전지 발전시스템을 위한 ZVS 동작을 가진 dc-dc 능동 클램프 전류형 하프 브리지 컨버터를 제안하였다. 제안된 컨버터는 일반적인 dc-dc 컨버터에 비해 높은 효율과 높은 소자 이용율을 가진다. 연료전지 발전시스템은 연료전지(PEMFC)의 낮은 전압(28∼43[Vdc])을 380[Vdc]로 승압하기 위한 능동 클램프 전류형 하프 브리지 컨버터로 구성하였다. 단상 풀 브리지 인버터는 220[Vac], 60[Hz] 교류 출력을 얻기 위해 적용하였다.

The inductive superconducting fault current limiter (SFCLJ limits the fault current with its dc reactor. To fabricate the optimal dc reactor for inductive SFCL, several design and manufacturing technologies are necessary. In this paper, the manufacturing technology for dc reactor and cryogenic cooling method are described in detail. GM-cryocooler was used enlarge the critical current of dc reactor by cooling down the temperature of dc reactor about 20 K. Moreover, the results of short circuit test were described. Finally, the thermal characteristics of conduction-cooled system were discussed and then, sub-cooled nitrogen system was proposed to enhance the thermal stability of dc reactor.

A new high efficiency and low profile on-board DC/DC converter for digital car audio amplifiers is proposed. The proposed converter shows low conduction loss due to the low voltage stress of the secondary diodes, a lack of DC magnetizing current for the transformer, and a lack of stored energy in the transformer. Moreover, since the primary MOSFETs are turned-on under zero-voltage-switching (ZVS) conditions and the secondary diodes are turned-off under zero-current-switching (ZCS) conditions, the proposed converter has minimized switching losses. In addition, the input filter can be minimized due to a continuous input current, and an output inductor is absent in the proposed converter. Therefore, the proposed converter has the desired features, high efficiency and low profile, for a viable power supply for digital car audio amplifiers. A 60W industrial sample of the proposed converter has been implemented for digital car audio amplifiers with a measured efficiency of $88.3\%$ at nominal input voltage.

We studied the distribution of the current density and its magnetic-field dependence in GdBCO coated conductors with AC bias currents using low temperature scanning Hall probe microscopy. We selectively measured magnetic field profiles from AC signal obtained by Lock-in technique and calculated current distributions by inversion calculation. In order to confirm the AC measurement results, we applied DC current corresponding to RMS value of AC current and compared distribution of AC and DC transport current. We carried out the same measurements at various external DC magnetic fields, and investigated field dependence of AC current distribution. We notice that the AC current distribution unaffected by external magnetic fields and preserved their own path on the contrary to DC current.

대용량 3상 시스템 에어컨은 최근 들어 소비 전력 저감을 위해 인버터 회로를 포함하고 있다. 인버터 회로는 교류를 다이오드를 통해 정류하고 DC-link 전원부 콘덴서에 의해 평활된 직류를 사용한다. 이 때 평활에 사용되는 DC-link 전원부 콘덴서는 전압 리플, 전류 리플 조건을 만족하기 위해 전해 콘덴서가 일반적으로 사용된다. 콘덴서의 용량을 줄이게 되면 회로부의 크기 및 무게, 비용을 줄일 수 있게 된다. 본 논문에서는 최소점 추정 PPL(Phase Locked Loop) 위상 제어와 평균 전압 d축 전류제어 기법을 조합하여 입력 리플 전류를 약 90% 저감하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 입력 리플 전류의 감소로 인해 DC-link 콘덴서의 전류 리플도 감소하므로 콘덴서의 용량을 줄일 수 있지만 전해 콘덴서의 경우 등가 직렬 저항(ESR : Equivalent Series Resistance)이 크기 때문에 발열로 인한 수명이 한계를 가진다. 본 논문에서는 전해 콘덴서 대신 DC-link 단에 전류 리플을 고려한 필름 콘덴서를 선정하는 방법을 제안한다. 필름 콘데서의 정전 용량 선정, 내압 선정, RMS(Root Mean Square) 전류 용량, RMS 전류 주파수 해석을 고려해 콘덴서의 용량을 선정할 경우 1680uF의 전해 콘덴서를 20uF로 용량을 낮추어 설계함으로써 전원부 콘덴서의 크기 및 무게, 비용을 줄였으며 전동기 구동을 통해 동작을 확인하였다.

In this paper, a current-fed two-inductor bi-directional DC/DC converter using resonance (CF-TIBCR) and its design method are proposed. The CF-TIBCR has characteristics of low current ripple and a high current rating because of two separated inductors. Also, it achieves zero voltage switching for all switches and zero current switching for switches of a low voltage stage by using the resonant tank. Besides, a voltage spike problem in conventional current-fed converters is solved without the need for an additional snubber or clamping circuits. As a result, the CF-TIBCR features high step-up and high efficiency. Since the proposed converter has difficulty achieving the soft-switching condition when the converter requires the low voltage transfer ratio, a method that varies the number of resonant cycles is adopted to extend the output voltage range with satisfying the soft-switching condition. The principles of the operation characteristics are presented with a theoretical analysis, and the proposed converter is verified through results of an experiment using a laboratory prototype.
