Brake system using eddy current is adequate to obtain safe braking force in high speed transportation system and electric vehicle etc. In this paper, we propose the new type eddy current braker using Halbach array. which compared with the conventional permanent magnet array. The airgap flux density of Halbach array is higher 25% then conventional array, therefor we can predict that braking force is much large 1.56 times then conventional array.

A magnetic brake system was fabricated for use with small wind turbines. The torque of the pivot did not change as the speed of revolution increased when the magnetic array disc was far from the salient of the aluminum housing, the torque abruptly increased as the magnetic array approached the salient of the aluminum housing. The torque increased as a quadratic function of the speed of revolution when the distance between the magnetic array and the datum point was 60 mm.

The high temperature superconducting bulk can be used as the rotor of an ac motor. This paper presents the fabrication and test results of a ac motor with HTS bulk rotor. The rotor of a conventional squirrel cage induction motor was replaced with cylinder type YBCO bulk. Height and outer diameter of the HTS bulk was 15mm and 46mm, respectively. Eddy current brake using aluminium disk was used to measure the torque of the HTS motor. No load test, locked rotor test and load test were performed to examine the characteristics of the HTS motor. Test results show the motor can rotate at synchronous speed without any special starting circuit. Maximum output power of the constructed HTS motor was 408W.

Usually, large-sized buses and trucks have a very high load. In addition, frequent braking during downhill or long-distance driving, causes the conventional method using the brake friction to have a problem in safety because of brake fade and brake burst phenomenon. Auxiliary brakes dividing the braking load is essential. Hence, environment-friendly auxiliary brakes, such as contactless brake rather than the engine auxiliary brake system are needed. A study aimed at improving the energy efficiency by recharging electric energy with changing mechanical to electrical energy that occurs when braking is actively in progress. In this paper, the voltage control method is utilized to recover the electric energy generated in the electromagnetic retarder instead of the eddy current. To regenerate the braking energy into the electrical energy, the resonant L-C circuit is configured in the retarder. The voltage generated in the retarder is simply modeled as a transformer. However, retarder voltage control in this paper is simulated by modeling the induction generator because this induction generator modeling is more practical than transformer modeling. The changes in the voltage of the resonance circuit, which depends on the switch pulse duration of the control device, were analyzed. A PI controller algorithm to control this voltage is proposed. The feasibility of modeling retarder and voltage controller are shown by using MATLAB Simulink in this paper.

인공위성 중 군사적 성격을 띠는 저궤도 소형 인공위성의 경우 다표적 관측을 필요로 하고 고해상도의 사진 및 영상의 수요가 증가하는 추세이다. 고해상도 영상과 다표적 관측을 위해 인공위성의 기동성이 가장 큰 변수로 작용한다. 소형 인공위성의 경우 고기동성을 갖게 되면 빠르게 자세기동을 할 수 있지만 자세 기동을 완료 후 다음 자세 기동을 할 때 잔류진동이 발생하게 된다. 이에 본 연구에서 자세 기동 후 발생하는 평판의 진동 특성을 검증하기 위하여 자세기동을 모사하기 위한 실험 치구를 제작하고 실험을 수행하였다. 추가로 이러한 진동을 저감시키기 위해 영구자석을 이용한 수동형 감쇠방법으로 와전류 브레이크 시스템을 응용한 와전류 감쇠기를 제시하였다. 와전류 감쇠기를 적용하기 위하여 수학적 모델을 정립하였으며 영구자석의 자속밀도와 공극거리에 따라 이를 실험적으로 구현하였으며, 4개의 태양전지판(평판) 중 1개 평판을 특정하여 와전류감쇠기를 적용유무에 따라 자세 기동 후 발생하는 잔류진동에 대한 저감 성능을 실험적으로 검증하였다.

In the case of frequent braking, when driving downhill or long distance, conventional brakes using friction are problematic in braking safety due to brake rupture and fading phenomenon. Therefore auxiliary brakes is essential for heavy vehicles. And several research has been actively conducted to improve energy efficiency by regenerating mechanical energy into electric energy when the vehicles brake. In this paper, a voltage control method is utilized to recover the electric energy generated in the electromagnetic retarder instead of the eddy current. To regenerate the braking energy into the electrical energy, a resonant L-C circuit is configured in the retarder. The retarder can be modeled as self-excited induction generator due to its operating principle. The driving conditions according to the retarder's parameters are made into 3-D maps. Also, the voltage of the resonant circuit changing depending on the driving pulse applied to the FET was analyzed. For the control of this voltage, we proposed an algorithm using the PI controller. The controlled voltage is converted by a 3-phase AC/DC converter and then charged to a battery inside the heavy vehicles through a DC/DC converter. Electromagnetic retarder and its controller are validated using Matlab Simulink. We also demonstrate the voltage controller through the actual M-G set experiment.

고속전철의 새로운 제동개념인 와전류제어 제동방식에서는 출력 자화력의 제어를 위해서 전류제어 시스템이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 신개념의 전력제어 소자인 IGCT(Insulated Gate Commutated Thyristor)를 초퍼회로에 적용한 스너버회로가 없는 형태의 고속전철용 와전류 제어장치의 개발에 대하여 설명하였다. 회로의 성능을 파악하기 위하여 주회로 시뮬레이션을 실시하였으며 대상체인 부하 마그네트를 연결한 고전압 출력 시험을 통해 장치의 성능을 조사하였다.
