Direct Torque Control[DTC] and Vector Control are the two schemes developed for high performance induction motor drives. DTC based induction motors are being increasingly used in various industrial applications. DTC offers fast torque response and better speed control with lesser hardware and processing costs as compared to vector controlled drives. However, conventional DTC suffers from high torque ripple, current harmonics and low performance during torque transients. In this paper a new Direct Torque Control[DTC] method of induction motor is presented. In comparison with the conventional DTC method, the PWM technique is applied to proposed control method. In this method, decoupling mechanism is not required and the torque, the flux magnitude are under control using PI controllers and generating the voltage command for inverter control. Therefore torque and speed ripple could be reduced in comparison with the conventional switching table DTC.

This paper proposes a new sensorless speed control scheme of permanent magnet DC motor using a numerical model and hysteresis controller, which requires neither shaft encoder, speed estimator nor PI controllers. By supplying the identical instantaneous voltage to both model and motor in the direction of reducing torque difference, the rotor speed approaches to the model speed, namely setting value and the system can control motor speed precisely. As the numerical model whose electric parameters are the same as those of the actual motor is adopted, the armature rotating speed can be converged to the setting value by controlling torque on both sides to be equalized. And the hysteresis controller controls torque by restricting the torque errors within respective hysteresis bands, and motor torque are controlled by the armature voltage. The experiment results indicate good speed and load responses from the low speed range to the high, show accurate speed changing performance.

Multi-pulse topology of converters using elementary six-pulse GTO - VSC (gate turn off based voltage source converter) operated under fundamental frequency switching (FFS) control is widely adopted in high power rating static synchronous compensators (STATCOM). Practically, a 48-pulse ($6{\times}8$ pulse) configuration is used with the phase angle control algorithm employing proportional and integral (PI) control methodology. These kinds of controllers, for example the ${\pm}80MVAR$ compensator at Inuyama switching station, KEPCO, Japan, employs two stages of magnetics viz. intermediate transformers (as many as VSCs) and a main coupling transformer to minimize harmonics distortion in the line and to achieve a desired operational efficiency. The magnetic circuit needs altogether nine transformers of which eight are phase shifting transformers (PST) used in the intermediate stage, each rating equal to or more than one eighth of the compensator rating, and the other one is the main coupling transformer having a power rating equal to that of the compensator. In this paper, a two-level 48-pulse ${\pm}100MVAR$ STATCOM is proposed where eight, six-pulse GTO-VSC are employed and magnetics is simplified to single-stage using four transformers of which three are PSTs and the other is a normal transformer. Thus, it reduces the magnetics to half of the value needed in the commercially available compensator. By adopting the simple PI-controllers, the model is simulated in a MATLAB environment by SimPowerSystems toolbox for voltage regulation in the transmission system. The simulation results show that the THD levels in line voltage and current are well below the limiting values specified in the IEEE Std 519-1992 for harmonic control in electrical power systems. The controller performance is observed reasonably well during capacitive and inductive modes of operation.

Nasucon lamp and Russian ones, which are coated with some special materials on the glass bulb, gave good clinical results for a cancer therapy. They are experimentally studied with Automatic Bioelectric Response Recorder on the six placements of the electrodes (two feet, two hands and two foreheads). They reduced the current rather than the control (natural) state. However infrared lamp and Chinese God light did not reduced the value current. Hemoglobin in blood. Brown gas, Ti$_3$SiC$_2$ and Nasucon have planar crystallizing $\pi$-bonding bonding layer and covalent bonding one in sequence commonly and thus the alternating magnetic fields are protected. Nasucon lamp and Russian ones utilized electric bulbs in order to generate alternating magnetic fields and to produce absorbing force.

This paper introduces the results of the development of a new mobile digital DC-arc welding machine (DDWM). A simple PI controller is applied to the DDWM to control the output welding current that is tracking the constant setting current. Furthermore, a hot-start function, an anti-stuck function, a standby mode and an intelligential circuit breaker (ICB) are included in the DDWM. The DDWM increases welding quality and saves more power energy than a conventional welding machine. The DDWM is changed from ready mode into the standby mode, automatically, after 2-minute intervals from this unload start. Then, the DDWM is changed into ready mode, automatically, since it is reused for welding. Moreover, the DDWM increases welding quality, productivity and reduces costs of welding. So, the DDWM can make a considerable contribution to the mobile welding industries. The effectiveness of the DDWM was proven by the experimental results.

A novel flux-weakening scheme for the Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (IPMSM) is proposed. This is implemented based on the output of the synchronous PI current regulator-reference voltage to the PWM inverter. Attractive features of this flux weakening scheme include no dependency on the machine parameters, the guarantee of current regulation at any operating condition, and smooth and fast transition into and out of the flux weakening mode without a discontinuity. Experimental results are presented to verify the feasibility of the proposed control scheme.

This paper presents two topologies for single-stage single-phase double-buck type PFC converters, designed to operate at high power factor, near sinusoidal input currents and adjustable output voltage. Unlike the known buck type PFC topologies, in which the output voltage is always lower than the maximum input voltage, the proposed converters can operate at output voltages higher than the ac input peak voltage. A reduced number of switches on the main path of the current are another characteristic of the two proposed topologies. To shape the input line currents, a fast and robust controller based on a sliding mode approach is proposed. This active non-linear control strategy, applied to these converters allows high quality input currents. A Proportional Integral (PI) controller is adopted to regulate the output voltage of the converters. This external voltage controller modulates the amplitude of the sinusoidal input current references. The performances of the presented rectifiers are verified with experimental results.

This paper presents a variable gain current control algorithm for the stabilized grid connection between the grid and a doubly fed induction(DFIG) as a wind power generator. The performance of a RSC current controller depends highly on accurate machine parameters, and especially requires a fast and robust response regardless of the disturbances such as voltage sag. However, parameter variations of a DFIG occur at the point of grid connection, which affects the current controller gains based on DFIG parameters after a DFIG is connected to the grid. Thus, performance degrades when actual machine parameters depart from values used in the control system. In the proposed algorithm, current controller gains of the rotor side converter(RSC) are changed after a DFIG is connected to the grid. The simulation results and experimental results for a 750kW are shown to illustrate the feasibility of the proposed algorithm.
