The voltage drop is important in electric railway for feeding a huge power of train on fixed feeding area. Nowadays it is tried to operate a high speed trains on conventional lines and there is problem on the voltage drop too. It is simulated on the conditions increased the turn ratio of trolley, installed autotransformer neutral line with variable taps. In result, it is compensated the voltage drop between ATs and better on last AT, not on the position of AT. And it is decreased a return current and neutral current of AT because of unbalance between trolley and feeder. It should be studied faster and more controllable the solid state switchs instead of the mechanical one in order to utilize this system.

Hydrogen evolution on a steel surface and subsequent hydrogen diffusion into the steel matrix are evaluated using an electrochemical permeation test with no applied cathodic current on the hydrogen charging side. In particular, cyclic operation in the permeation test is also conducted to clarify the corrosion-induced hydrogen evolution behavior. In contrast to the conventional perception that the cathodic reduction reaction on the steel in neutral aqueous environments is an oxygen reduction reaction, this study demonstrates that atomic hydrogen may be generated on the steel surface by the corrosion reaction, even in a neutral environment. Although a much lower permeation current density and significant slower diffusion kinetics of hydrogen are observed compared to the results measured in acidic environments, they contribute to the increase in the embrittlement index. This study suggests that the research on hydrogen embrittlement in ultra-strong steels should be approached from the viewpoint of corrosion reactions on the steel surface and subsequent hydrogen evolution/diffusion behavior.

A single-phase PWM current source rectifier with a neutral leg is presented and throughly analyzed in this paper. This novel topology is implemented by adding an extra leg a step-down single phase PWM space vector modulation method to reduce the dc output voltage harmonics is proposed. The PWM pattern generation need a digital system. As compared with a conventional single-phase PWM rectifier, over 20% improvement of the total harmonics distortion in the output voltage can be obtained. Different SVM techniques are analyzed for this PWM rectifier and simulation result are presented.

Medium voltage drive systems driven by high-power multi-level inverters operating at low switching frequency can reduce the switching losses of the power device and increase the output power. Employing subsection synchronous current harmonic minimum pulse width modulation (CHMPWM) technique can maintain the total harmonic distortion of current at a very low level. It can also reduce the losses of the system, improve the system control performance and increase the efficiency of DC-link voltage accordingly. This paper proposes a subsection synchronous CHMPWM approach of active neutral point clamped five-level (ANPC-5L) inverter under low switching frequency operation. The subsection synchronous scheme is obtained by theoretical calculation based on the allowed maximum switching frequency. The genetic algorithm (GA) is adopted to get the high-precision initial values. So the expected switching angles can be achieved with the help of sequential quadratic programming (SQP) algorithm. The selection principle of multiple sets of the switching angles is also presented. Finally, the validity of the theoretical analysis and the superiority of the CHMPWM are verified through both the simulation results and experimental results.

3상 4선식 배전방식에서 비선형 부하증가로 인한 제 3고조파 전류발생은 선로의 중성선 및 기기를 과열시키는 원인으로 작용하고 있다. 따라서 고조파에 의한 역률저하 및 기기, 선로 등을 안전하게 보호할 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서는 제 3고조파 전류로 인한 사고사례를 조사하고 고조파 분석 및 부하 불평형 등을 분석하였다. 이를 통해 가장 경제적인 4극 저압차단기를 사용하여 중성선의 과전류로부터 선로 및 기기를 보호하는 방법을 제시하였다.

Large-scale power converters consist of series or parallel module combinations. In these modular converter systems, the interleaving technique can be applied to improve capacitor reliability by reducing the ripple of the I/O current in which each module operates as a phase difference. However, when applying the interleaving technique for conventional three-level boost converters, the short-circuit period of the converter can be an obstacle. Such problem is caused by the absence of a low-level inductor of the conventional three-level boost converter. To solve this problem, a three-level boost converter with a low-level inductor is proposed and analyzed to enable interleaved operation. In the proposed circuit, the current ripple of the output capacitor depends on the neutral point connections between the modules. In this study, the ripple current is analyzed by the neutral point connections of the three-level boost converter that has a low-level inductor, and the effectiveness of the proposed circuit is proven by simulation and experiment.

Effects of current re-stress after anneal on leakage current and trapped charges in oxides are investigated. Current stress on 6 nm thick oxide has generated mostly positive traps within the oxide resulting in leakage currents. The interface states generated are several orders of magnitude smaller, determined by C-V and charge pumping method. Annealing has eliminated only the charged traps not the neutral traps, thus the leakage current and trap density are increased when the oxides are re-stressed.

This paper introduces a control method of series active power filter that compensate harmonic currents and eliminate a neutral line current in 3 phase 3 wire and 3 phase 4 wire power system with harmonic voltage source. These harmonic currents and neutral line current are caused by a nonlinear loads such as diode rectifiers and thyristor converters. Proposed methode extracts a voltage reference directly from performance function without phase transformation. Therefore, the control method is simpler than any other conventional methods. Experimental results for 3-phase 3-wire and 3-phase 4-wire series active power filter system were shown to verify the effectiveness of this control method.

In this paper the method to determine tire optimal switching instants in order to reduce the transient surges during switching not relevant to the neutral treatment of shunt reactors is presented. This method consists of the following two steps. First, the instants of the voltage peaks between the contacts of each poles and the voltage magnitude as well as the moments of the current zero crosses were found out analytically. Next, the instants of the contact touches or separations were determined in consideration of the rate of decrease of dielectric strength or a circuit breaker and the variation of the its operating time. The results obtained from the EMTP(Electromagnetic Transient Program) analysis studies show that the making instants are established at the peak voltage of each three poles for any conditions of a neutral point and the possible upper limited values of inrush currents due to the variation of the mechanical operating time can be estimated.

This paper proposes a simple 3-level interleaved charger-discharger for the uninterruptible power supply (UPS) with various combinations of battery cells. The proposed converter not only improves charging and discharging efficiency, but also reduces the physical volume and the cost. Furthermore, the converter also offers the capability of the neutral point voltage, so that more stable operation can be obtained. In addition, the proposed converter significantly reduces the ripple current of the battery inductor, thereby providing an expected life extension of the battery. Experimental results for a 300kVA UPS prototype verify the validity of the proposed converter. The proposed charger-discharger is suitable for UPSs and energy storage systems (ESSs) with wide input battery voltage ranges.
