  • This paper describes a design and implementation of the practical SMPS(Switched Mode Power Supply) with multi-output independent regulation scheme. The designed SMPS is applied to the PSU(Power Supply Unit) of high power GTO drivers for a inverter system. In order to accomplish precise voltage regulations for both turn-on and turn-off bias voltages of the GTO driver, the conventional forward type PWM converter scheme is adopted with the Post Regulator using a Saturable Reactor. Analytic design criteria and control schemes are described for practical applications. Finally, the precise regulation of multi-output voltages is proved by experimental results.

  • An aspartase purified from Hafnia alvei was inactivated by diethylpyrocarbonate (DEP) in a pseudo-first-order inactivation. The first-order plot was biphasic. The inactivation process was not saturable and the second order rate constant was $1.3\;M^{-1}s^{-1}$. The inactivated aspartase was reactivated with NH₂OH. The difference absorption spectrum of DEP-inactivated vs native enzyme preparations revealed a marked peak around 242 nm. The pH dependence of the inactivation rate suggests that an amino acid residue having a pK value of 7.2 was involved in the inactivation. L-aspartate, fumarate (substrates), and chloride ion (inhibitor) protected the enzyme against inactivation, indicating that histidine residues for the enzyme activity are located at the active site of this aspartase. Inspection of the presence and absence of $Cl^-$ ion demonstrated that the number of essential histidine residues is less than two. Thus, one or two histidines are in or near the aspartate binding site and participate in an essential step of the catalytic reaction.

  • A new zero voltage switching PWN converter family is presented by using a new ZVS PWN module (ZPM) with a saturable inductor which prevents diode junction capacitors and a commutation inductor from resonating. The new converters show almost all characteristics of the conventional PWN converters. A boost ZVS PWN converter is applied to a power factor correction circuit. It operates on an continuous conduction mode. Experimental results for output power of 1kW are presented.

  • A series of studies in monkeys and hamsters, and reevaluation of published human data, indicate that dietary saturated fatty acids exert a dissimilar metabolic impact on cholesterol metabolism. Myristic acid(14 : 0) appears to have a major cholesterol-raising effect by means of decreasing LDL receptor activity and by increasing the direct production of LDL (from sources other than VLDL-catabolism) Palmitic acid (16 : 0) appears neutral in most cases (plasma cholesterol<200mg/dl) or until the LDL receptor is down-regulated, as with high cholesterol intake or obesity. In such cases. the down-regulated LDL receptors coupled with an increased VLDL production (induced by 16 : 0 and 18 : 1) can divert VLDL remnants to LDL and expand the LDL pool. Furthermore. the cholesterolemic impact of any saturated fatty acid can be countered up to a saturable 'threshold' level by dietary linoleic acid (18 : 2) which up-regulates the LDL receptor. Once above this 'threshold' the major fatty acids (16 : 0, 18 : 0, 18 : 1, 18 : 2, 18 : 3) appear to exert an equal impact on the circulating cholesterol concentration.

  • 자성체 코어의 비선형 특성을 이용하여 DC와 AC 전류를 측정하는 Zero-Flux Current Transformer는 정밀 전류 측정용으로 많이 연구되고 있다. Zero-Flux Current Transformer는 DC 대전류 측정에 합당하며 저 전류 측정에 사용될 경우 소모전류, 안정되고 첨예한 필터 제작, magnetic modulator에 의한 zero point drift, 자화 전류가 비대칭일 때 출력 등과 같은 문제가 해결되어야 한다. 그리고 상용으로 사용하기 위하여 Hand-Held Type으로 제작되어야하며 동작시의 소모전류가 작고 정확도가 우수하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 자화 전류가 비대칭일 때 출력을 zero로 만들기 위하여 사용하는 필터와 복잡한 회로로 구성된 magnetic modulator 부분을 여러개의 peak detector를 사용하여 AC와 DC를 측정하는 클램프미터를 개발하였으며 그 특성에 대한 내용을 기술하였다.

  • We have developed 3-stage of Magnetic Switch System based on the nonlinearities of ferromagnetic material used in the saturable inductor, and made experiment of parameter optimization and output stabilization of Magnetic Switch System. The cross-section and conductor burns of each satarable inductor were optimized 30 $cm^2$ 19.25 $cm^2$ 5, and 25 $cm^2$ 2, respectively. With this condition, 6.2 us [FWHM], 96 A pulse at first stage was compressed into 0.4 us[FWHM], 1.61 kA pulse at last stage. The current gain and compression ratio were 16.8, 17, respectively. ln addition, System output was stabilized with reset current of 6 A, 200 us.

  • The Q-switching oscillator of TE $M_{00}$ mode was constructed in order to improve the properties of energy focusing and amplification, and prevent laser materials from breakdown. The Q-switching was done by means of electro-optical effect using Glan prism and KDP Pockels cell. Sharp laser pulse of risetime-1 ns and variable pulse width 2-10 ns was obtained from Q-switching laser pulse by PTM method using a laser triggered spark gap (LTSG), Glan prism and Pockels cell. A single ultra-short pulse (picosec order in pulse width) was obtained from mode-locked pulse train in combination of a mode-locked oscillator using saturable dye cell with pulse shaping system using PTM method.d.

  • This paper describes the analysis resulates on the P.T ferroresonance at 154kV GIS(Gas Insulated Substation) by EMTP(Electromagnetic transient program). We had simulated the PT ferroresonance between a potential transformer(PT) and open circuit braker's grading capacitance. The ferroresonance leads to very large power frequency overvoltage on PT bus and subsequent insulation failure. The damping circuit connected on the secondary winding were considered in the model. The actual countermeasure include a saturable inductor and a resistor series mounted, but the 2 ohms of damping resistance was used in the computational model.

  • This paper describes the analysis results on the PT ferroresonance at 154 kV GIS (gas Insulated substation by EMTP(Electro- magnetic Transient Program). We had simulated the PT ferroresonance between a potential transformer(PT) and an open circuit breaker's grading capacitance. The ferroresonance leads to very large power frequency overvoltages on PT bus and subsequent insulation failure. The large power can be supplied to the PT by the high voltage on the opened circuit due to the grading capacitance and equivalent capacitance of the buses during the ferroresonance. The damping circuit connected on the secondary winding were considered in the model. The actual countermeasure include a saturable inductor and a resistor series-mounted, but the 2 ohms of damping resistance was used in the computationl model.

  • We report hybrid and passive mode-locking results of tilted-stripe AlGaAs semiconductor laser traveling wave amplifiers with saturable absorbers. Dependence ofthe pulse width on the mode locking frequency, the bandwidth of spectral filters, and the bias current of the laser amplifier are investigated. We generate 4 ps optical pulses by using the hybrid mode locking technique. The repetition rate and the peak power of generated pulses are 516 MHz and 170 mW, respectively. The tuning range of uor mode locked laser is 10 nm with the center wavelength of 780 nm. We also generate 2.6 ps optical pulses with peak power of 830 mW by using the passive mode locking technique.
