This paper deals with the design and fabrication of a novel superconducting power supply system, and characteristics have been investigated through experiments. Superconducting power supply consists of rotating and static parts, and superconducting magnet. In this experiment, superconducting foils were placed in parallel within the static part of the machine, pumping currents were measured with respect to rotor speeds and excitation currents. In addition, in order to observe the rotating flux distribution in the superconducting foils, several hall-sensors were placed in it. With the flux distribution acquired, effect of the flux on the superconducting foil during the process of current pumping has been discussed. Also, the general operational characteristics of the superconducting power supply system have been investigated on the basis of the current and voltage data, and magnetic field values acquired through the experiments.

The role of Electrical Power Subsystem (EPS) is to generate a power and distribute it to the electrical devices for the system operation. For on-orbit operation of cube satellite, it is also necessary to supply power to on-board mission devices as commercial satellite does. Recently, commercial EPS products dedicated for the cube satellite application has been developed and widely used for the power subsystem design. In this paper, a permanent magnet attitude stabilization method without external power has been introduced because it has advantage from power consumption point of view and the EPS design of cube satellite by applying the commercial EPS products has been introduced and investigated. This paper also deals with the specification of the commercial EPS products for the beginner of the cube satellite design.

Vector controlled PMAC(Permanent Magnet AC) motor, with rare-earth permanent magnet, are suitable for servo system demanding fast speed response. However, abrupt acceleration and deceleration control for fast response requires big instantaneous input power. So general PI control of PMAC motors can't be applied for limited power supply system like airplane or portable equipment because of input power fluctuation. Proposed technique to restrain instantaneous input power use variable power limit depends on airgap flux power. Stability check for proposed system is done.

The KSTAR Magnet Power Supply (MPS) was dedicated to the SC coil commissioning and $1^{st}$ plasma experiment as a part of the system commissioning. Although many efforts to develop large-current power supplies that are useful for high power electronic devices have been made in various application fields, such as for large metal-plating devices, there were clear discrepancies between conventional power supply technologies and that for the SC coils due to the special SC coil load conditions. Therefore, most of the power supply technologies for the SC coils were a challenge in the domestic research area due to their limited application. However, the MPS commissioning result showed that all of the hardware and controlling software operated well, and this result finally led to the success of SC coil commissioning and the KSTAR $1^{st}$ plasma experiment. This paper will describe key features of KSTAR MPS for the $1^{st}$ plasma experiment, and will also report the commissioning results of the magnet power supplies.

The Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research (KSTAR) device is an advanced superconducting tokamak to establish scientific and technological bases for attractive fusion reactor. This device requires 3.5 Tesla of toroidal field (TF) for plasma confinement, and requires a strong poloidal flux swing to generate an inductive voltage to produce and sustain the tokamak plasma. KSTAR was originally designed to have 16 serially connected TF magnets for which the nominal current rating is 35.2 kA. KSTAR also has 7 pairs of poloidal field (PF) coils that are driven to 1 MA/sec for generation of the tokamak plasma according to the operation scenarios. The KSTAR Magnet Power Supply (MPS) was dedicated to the superconducting (SC) coil commissioning and $2^{nd}$ plasma experiment as a part of the system commissioning. This paper will describe key features of KSTAR MPS for the $2^{nd}$ plasma experiment, and will also report the engineering and commissioning results of the magnet power supplies.

This paper presents the new MR rotary brake with a permanent magnet, based on the shear operating mode. Due to the permanent magnet, the MR rotary brake can give the nominal resistance to the external disturbance and give the fail safe capacity to the system even when the power supply is accidentally cut off. As we apply the positive or negative current to the electric magnet coil, the resistance torque of the MR rotary brake can be reduced to the value less than the nominal resistance or increased up to the magnetic saturation point.

This paper presents miniaturized setback generators based on the conversion of mechanical energy into electrical energy for military applications, especially power supply for electronic fuzes. In order to minimize the volume of setback generators, a ring-shaped magnet enclosing a coil assembly is adopted. A mechanical safety system, shear plate, is used as a release mechanism of the setback generators to prevent the generators from operating accidentally. The setback generators are intended not to ignite an electrical detonator but to charge a capacitor which is capable of driving electronic circuit of fuze. We design the setback generators using the simulation results of an electromagnetic analysis tool, $Maxwell^{(R)}$ 2D. In experimental study, we perform safety tests of the shear plate and firing tests of the fabricated setback generators. The present setback generators show that the voltage of 14.2V is charged at the capacitor of $30{\mu}F$ within the charging time of 0.68msec and the critical acceleration for safety is 5,000G, thus verifying that the setback generators with a ring-shaped permanent magnet can be applicable to the power supply of small-caliber electronic fuze.

The technology of supplying the electric power by wireless power transfer (WPT) is expected for the next generation power feeding system since it can supply the power to portable devices without any connectors through large air gap. As such a technology based on strongly coupled electromagnetic resonators is possible to deliver the large power and recharge them seamlessly; it has been considered as a noble option to wireless power charging system in the various power applications. Recently, various HTS wires have now been manufactured for demonstrations of transmission cables, motors, MAGLEV, and other electrical power components. However, since the HTS magnets have a lower index n value intrinsically, they are required to be charged from external power system through leads or internal power system. The portable area is limited as well as the cryogen system is bulkier. Thus, we proposed a novel design of wireless power charging system for superconducting HTS magnet (WPC4SM) based on resonance coupling method. As the novel system makes possible a wireless power charging using copper resonance coupled coils, it enables to portable charging conveniently in the superconducting applications. This paper presented the conceptual design and operating characteristics of WPC4SM using different shapes' copper resonance coil. The proposed system consists of four components; RF generator of 370 kHz, copper resonance coupling coils, impedance matching (IM) subsystem and HTS magnet including rectifier system.
