This paper provides a solution for the problem of efficiency decrease caused by load variation. A novel control scheme of tracking the PT's operation frequency for the maximum efficiency is proposed. As a result, a high efficiency over $80\%$ has been achieved even under the output-current decrease down to $10\%$ of the full load current.

The paper identifies a severe form of core saturation instability in a DC/AC interaction system. It then seeks solutions to the problem by HVDC control means. This is achieved by a proper design of the Voltage Dependent Current Order Limiter (VDCOL), the Current Regulate. and Timing Pulse generator. Supplementary control loops have also been introduced to result in a satisfactory performance as compared to that obtained one with the use of uncharacteristic harmonic filter on the AC side. All the options have been demonstrated through recovery performance of the DC link in response to both 1-phase and 3-phase 5 cycle faults on both rectifier and inverter commutating buses.

In this paper, a low cost bridgeless interleaved power factor correction topology for electric vehicle charger application is proposed. With the proposed topology the number of switches, inductors, current sensors and associated circuits can be reduced, thereby reducing the cost of the system as compared to the conventional bridgeless PFC circuit. The reduced input current ripple by the proposed interleaved topology makes it suitable for high power applications such as electric vehicle chargers since it can reduce the size of the inductor core and the Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI) problem. In the proposed topology only one current sensor is required. All the boost inductor currents can be reconstructed by sampling the output current and used to control the input current. Therefore the typical problem caused by the unequal current gain of each current sensor inherently does not exist in the proposed topology. In addition the current sharing between converters can be achieved more accurately and the high frequency distortion is decreased. The performance of the proposed converter is verified by the experimental results with a prototype of 6.6kW bridgeless interleaved PFC circuit.

This paper is given a full detail of mathematical analyses of input current for novel active type power factor correction(PFC) AC-DC converter of step up-down added electric isolation. These are compared with harmonics components of input current for a conventional PFC converter of electric isolation type. The proposed PFC converter is constructed in using a new loss-less snubber circuit to achieve a soft switching of control device. Also the proposed converter for discontinuous conduction mode(DCM) eliminates the complicated circuit control requirement and reduces the size of components. The input current waveform in the proposed converter is got to be a sinusoidal form of discontinuous pulse in proportion to magnitude of ac input voltage under the constant duty cycle switching. Therefore, input power factor is nearly unity and the control method is simple. Particularly, the stored energy of loss-less snubber capacitor is recovered with input side and increases input current from resonant operation. The result is that input power factor of the proposed converter is higher than that of a conventional PFC converter. Some simulative results on computer and experimental results are included to confirm the validity of the analytical results.

DC distribution systems has recently taken the spotlight. Concerns over human safety and stability facility are raised in DC distribution systems. Std. IEC 60479 provides basic guidance on "the effects of shock current on human beings and livestock" for use in the establishment of electrical safety requirements and suggests an electrical impedance of the human body. This study analyzes impedance spectrums based on the electrical equivalent impedance circuit for the human body; human body impedances measured by experiments are analyzed below the fundamental frequency (60 Hz). The analysis shows that the equivalent impedance circuit for the human body should be modified at least in low-frequency range below the fundamental frequency (60 Hz). The DC residual current detection method that can classify electric shock accidents of humans and electric leakages of facilities is proposed by applying the analysis result. The detection method is verified by experiments on livestock.

This paper proposes MPPT control considering temperature characteristic of PV module. Conventional CV(Constant Voltage) and PO(Perturbation and Observation) methods have the weak problem about the insolation and temperature change. Thus, in this paper, in order to improve this problem, the optimal voltage and current is determined and the MPPT control is performed. MPPT algorithm proposed in this paper analyze the performance about insolation and temperature change and proves the validity.

This study proposes an electric vehicle (EV) smart panel board and its control method on the basis of charging scheduling. The proposed system consists of batteries, a three-phase battery charger, three single-phase inverters, transfer switches for electric power distribution, and a controller. The three-phase battery charger usually charges the batteries at midnight when electric rates are cheap and in light load. When the electric power consumption of the EV standard chargers connected to one phase of the power line is relatively large or when a blackout occurs, the electric power stored in the battery is supplied by discharging through the inverters to the EV standard chargers. As a result, the value of peak load and the charging electric power quantity supplied from a utility grid are reduced, and the current unbalance is improved. The usefulness of the proposed system is confirmed through simulations, experiments, and case studies.

Arc Fault Current is an electric discharge which is occurred in two opposite electrode. In this paper, arc current control algorithm is designed for the interruption of arc fault current which is occurred in the low voltage network. This arc is one of the main causes of electric fire. General arc current sensor has troubles for detecting arc currents, thus we would like to propose the arc current detection method without current sensor. In this paper, arc discharge currents within power lines are being detected through the arc current control algorithm.

교정치료 본질인 치아이동을 보다 효과적으로 하기 위한 기계적 힘외의 다른 자극원으로서 전기적 자극에 대한 효용성이 부각되고 있다. 본 연구는 임상에서 초소형 전기장치에 의한 전기 자극이 교정적 치아이동에 미치는 효과를 실증하기 위해 시행되었다. 교정용 미니 스크류를 식립한 성인 여성 교정 환자 7명의 상악 견치 후방 견인 시 실험측에 150 gm의 기계적 교정력 외에 $20{\mu}A$의 직류 전류를 공급하는 초소형 전기 장치를 고안, 제작, 장착하여 견치의 근원심에 1일 5시간씩 4주간 전류 자극을 흘리고, 대조측에는 기계적 자극만을 가한 후, 매 주간 치아 이동량을 측정하여 치아이동에 있어서 전기자극의 효과를 검증하였다. 실험기간 동안 치아이동률에 있어서 실험군에서 대조군에 비해 1, 2째주에서 33%, 3, 4째주에서 21,4% 증가된 치아이동을 보였다. 실험군의 평균 치아 이동량은 1, 2째주가 3, 4째주에 비하여 컸으며, 그 차이는 각각 47%, 24% 증가된 치아 이동량을 보였다. 실험을 통하여 미세 전류가 적용되어 치아이동을 촉진할 수 있다는 것이 임상적으로 실증되었다. 생물학적으로 최적의 치아이동을 계획하여 치료계획을 단축시킬 수 있는 방법은 기계적 교정력과 전기자극을 동시에 가하는 것이라고 제안한다.

To operate electric power systems economically and stably, and to supply the electric power of good quality, it is necessary that the measured information (current, voltage, and so on) be detected and transmutted with high reliability and high effieincy. For the reason, the optical magnetic field sensor is possible to rapidly detect to over current and recover when electric power line have fault. In addition, the optical sensor have no electro magnetic distortion and no electric insulation. In this study, we designed OCR(Over Current Relay) using optical sensor. The designed OCR using optical sensor was measured characteristic and compared contentional OCR. This system have highest optical advantages and reliability.
