In this paper, we designed high performance, high quality and high density switch mode power supply for precision electronics, and communication equipments. For this, we used two parallel DC-DC converters, which have opposite phases, to support proper high performance and high quality power. To reduce switching losses and make high switching frequency, active-clamp and ZVS technique were employed in each converter.

IGBT는 전압정격 및 전류정격이 높고 도통손실이 낮아서 스위칭 전원장치에 많이 쓰이고 있는 추세에 있다. 그러나 IGBT는 MOSFET에 비해 스위칭 특성이 좋지 않아서 스위칭 손실이 많이 발생하며 주파수에도 제한을 받는다. 본 논문에서는 IGBT와 MOSFET의 장점을 살리기 위하여 IGBT에 MOSFET를 병렬로 접속한 IGBT-MOSFET 병렬 스위치를 사용한 2.4kW, 48V 출력의 고효율 반브리지 직류-직류 변환기를 제안한다. 병렬 스위치에서 주 스위칭 소자인 IGBT는 도통구간에서 주된 역할을 하며 MOSFET는 스위칭시에 주된 역할을 한다. 스위칭 손실을 분석하기 위하여 선형화 모델을 사용하였으며 시뮬레이션을 통하여 변환기의 동작을 확인하였다.

This paper deals with charging and persistent-current mode operating characteristics of BSCCO magnet load using high-temperature superconducting (HTS) power supply. The HTS power supply consists of two heater-triggered switches, an iron-core transformer with the primary copper winding and the secondary BSCCO solenoid, and a BSCCO magnet load. The magnet load was fabricated by double pancake winding and its inductance is about 21 mH. A hall sensor was installed at the middle of the magnet load to measure the current in the load. In order to investigate the efficient pumping characteristics, operating tests of heater-triggered switch with respect to dc heater current were carried out, and the electromagnet current was determined by considering saturation characteristics of its iron core. The saturation characteristics of charged current in the magnet load were observed with respect to various pumping periods: 12 s, 14 s, 24 s and 32 s. After charging the magnet load, the persistent current was measured. The operating characteristics of the persistent current mode were mainly determined by joint resistance and magnet load.

In the high-power tests to be performed on electrical apparatus as circuit-breaker, load switch, fuse, transformers, insulators, cable and so on, the results of tests on these apparatus are extremely important to evaluate the performance of test object. The reliability of the results depends on the reliability of measuring systems used in the laboratories where tests are performed. This paper deals with factors of uncertainty and describes estimation of uncertainty in new measuring system used in high-power testing LAB. 1 in KERI.

최근 저압 배전계통에서 사용되고 있는 과부하겸용 누전차단기 즉, RCD의 저조한 응답특성으로 인한 전기화재 원인의 대부분을 차지하는 단락사고 및 과부하사고에 대한 대응이 매우 미흡한 실정이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 기존 RCD에 대한 모의 사고실험을 통하여 그 비신뢰성을 확인하고, 이러한 RCD의 단점을 개선하고자 내구성과 속응성이 우수한 반도체 스위칭 소자들과 고정밀 전류센서를 이용한 "전기화재 방재장치(EFDPD : Electrical Fire Disaster Prevention Device)"를 제안하여 저압 배전계통에서의 단락 및 과부하사고로 인한 전기재해를 방지하고자 한다. 제안한 장치의 고정밀 전류센서로 사용된 리드스위치는 각종 전기사고에서 수반되는 단락전류 및 과전류에 의한 배전선로의 상승된 자속을 정밀 감지한 후, 자체 차단장치를 동작시키는 원리를 가진다. 다양한 동작특성 분석을 통하여 기존의 차단기와 비교하여 차단동작 응답속도와 그 신뢰성이 입증된다. 이로써 제안한 전기안전 제어장치는 기존 RCD들의 빈번한 오동작과 비신뢰성, 저조한 응답특성으로 인한 각종 전기사고 및 전기화재의 발생을 방지하고자 한다.

Among the variable-speed AC motor drive systems, the static slip power recovery system has been widely adopted in large power drives because a high efficiency drive can be obtained by recovering the slip power to the AC line. Although many improvements have been made in this system, several problems also remain such as the need of transformer in inverter AC side, which results in limiting speed control range and increasing the losses, production of reactive power by the control of inverter firing angle, harmonics in line currents, and so on. This paper presents the novel high performance slip power recovery system using the boost converter and small size filter in the rotor circuit, which recovers slip power of a wound rotor induction machine to AC supply efficiently with the aid of the boost converter, in which most of the problems in conventional system can be solved. The speed can be controlled by the duty ratio of the converter switch, not by inverter firing angle. As a results, the proposed system can operate in high power factor and the harmonic currents caused by the inverter and rectifier can be considerably suppressed. The validity of the proposed system verified by demonstrating the good agreement in the simulation and experimental results.

A high-efficiency and small-sized switched-mode line transformer (SMLT) is proposed in this study. The conventional structure of an adapter is composed of line transformer and rectifiers. This structure has a limit in miniaturizing due to low-frequency line transformer. Another structure is composed of power factor correction (PFC) and DC/DC converter. This structure has a limit in reducing volume due to two-stage structure. As the proposed SMLT is composed of an LLC resonant converter, a high-frequency transformer can be adopted to achieve isolation standards and size reduction. This proposed structure has different operation modes in accordance with line input voltage to overcome poor line regulation. In addition, the proposed SMLT is applied to the front of a conventional PFC converter, because the SMLT output voltage is restored to rectified sinusoidal wave by using a full-bridge rectifier in the secondary side. The design of the PFC converter is easy, because the SMLT output voltage is controlled as rectified sinusoidal wave. The validity of the proposed converter is proven through a 350 W prototype.

Multilevel converter topologies are widely used in many applications. The cascaded H-bridge multilevel inverter (CHBMI), which is one of many multilevel converter topologies, has been introduced as a useful topology in high and medium power. However, it has a drawback to require a lot of switches. Therefore, the reliability of CHBMI is important factor for analyzing the performance. This paper presents a simple switch fault diagnosis method for single-phase CHBMI. There are two types of switch faults: open-fault and short-fault. In the open-fault, the body diode of faulty switch provides a freewheeling current path. However, when the short-fault occurs, the distortion of output current is different from that of the open-fault because it has an unavailable freewheeling current flow path due to a disconnection of fuse. The fault diagnosis method is based on the zero current time analysis according to zero-voltage switching states. Using the proposed method, it is possible to detect the location of faulty switch accurately. The PSIM simulation and experimental results show the effectiveness of proposed switch fault diagnosis method.

This paper proposes a new zero-current switching (ZCS) pulse-width modulation (PWM) switch cell that has no additional conduction loss of the main switch. In this cell, the main switch and the auxiliary switch turn on and turn off under zero current condition. The diodes commutate softly and the reverse recovery problems are alleviated. The conduction loss and the current stress of the main switch are minimized, since the resonating current for the soft switching does not flow through the main switch. Based on the proposed ZCS PWM switch cell, a new family of dc to dc PWM converters is derived. The new family of ZCS PWM converters is suitable for the high power applications employing IGBTs. Among the new family of dc to dc PWM converters, a boost converter was taken as an example and has been analyzed. Design guidelines with a design example are described and verified by experimental results from the 2.5 kW prototype boost converter operating at 40kHz.
