This paper shows the design of the 100 kW IPMSG for small hydraulic power generator. The high-efficient generator, method of the dual layer interior permanent magnet was studied to improve the method of the single layer interior permanent magnet, which is mostly used. Analysis of magnet arrangement and cogging torque was done by FEM. According to structure analysis of dual layer interior permanent magnet, the amount of usage of the permanent magnet was reduced and cogging torque was decreased as well. With these successful results, the high-efficient generator design was accomplished. Based on the results of the structure analysis, the test product was designed and manufactured. And the design values and performance outputs were compared and verified with success. Also, the economic feasibility was conducted based on the electric power generated from the test product installed at the site. By the B/C analysis, in case that only SMP was analyzed, B/C ratio was 1.24 at the discount ratio of 5.5%, which considered to be economically feasible. The study is expected to be used for the application of developing large scale high-efficient interior permanent magnet synchronous generator.

In this paper, a wideband clock generator using novel Automatic frequency calibration(AFC) scheme is proposed. Wideband clock generator using AFC has the advantage of small VCO gain and wide frequency band. The conventional AFC compares whether the feedback frequency is faster or slower then the reference frequency. However, the proposed AFC can detect frequency difference between reference frequency with feedback frequency. So it can be reduced an operation time than conventional methods AFC. Conventional AFC goes to the initial code if the frequency step changed. This AFC, on the other hand, can a prior state code so it can approach a fast operation. In simulation results, the proposed clock generator is designed for DisplayPort using the CMOS ring-VCO. The VCO tuning range is 350MHz, and a VCO frequency is 270MHz. The lock time of clock generator is less then 3us at input reference frequency, 67.5MHz. The phase noise is -109dBC/Hz at 1MHz offset from the center frequency. and power consumption is 10.1mW at 1.8V supply and layout area is $0.384mm^2$.

Steam generator tubes are critical boundary of the primary and secondary side in nuclear power plants. Eddy current testing is commonly used as the method of non-destructive testing for the safety and integrity of steam generator tubes in the nuclear power plants. Changes in the geometric shape act as a stress concentration factor likely to cause a defect during the steam generator operation. The mixed-signals with the geometric shape are distorted and attributes that are difficult to detect signals. An example is bending stress due to compression process at a U-bend occurring in the intrados region which has a small radius of curvature. The resulting change in the geometric shape may lead to a dent like occurrences. The dent can cause stress concentration and generates stress corrosion cracks. In this study, the steam generator tubes of nuclear power plant were selected to study for analysis of mixed-signal containing dent and stress corrosion cracks.

The water leak in water-cooled generator stator windings can generate the serious accidents such as insulation breakdown and it brings a generator to the unexpected sudden outage. Accordingly, it is important to diagnose the water absorption of them for the effective operation of power plant. Especially, the capacitance value which is measured for diagnosis is very small so the special diagnosis methods like stochastic theory are needed. KEPRI developed the water absorption test equipment and diagnosis technology for them. The developed diagnosis technology is applied to the real system and the results of water absorption test for stator windings are agreed to them of water leak test.

In this paper, wind power system with direct-driven axial-flux type permanent-magnet (PM) synchronous generator, 10 [kVA], 300 [rpm], is presented. In order to analyze the performance of axial PM generator, finite-element (FE) analysis is used, and the 2-dimensional equivalent model is developed. The steady-state and transient-state characteristics are respectively analyzed at no-load and resistive-inductive loads. The test results of driving characteristics are presented as well. The results are very similar to predicted performance of design. Proposed generator is feasible for use with a small-class wind power applications.

The purpose of this study is to explain the importance of Vibration Monitoring Device by introducing an example of Predictive Maintenance System using Condition Monitoring System of Hydro-turbine generator. Confirming vibration of generation equipment is commissioning procedure during equipment completion for checking guaranteed items. Data from Generator output range are used to determine output band to continue the performance of equipment. The Vibration Monitoring System is not absolute method of maintenance, but if it is used well with expert, it will be visible, data-analyzed, scientific maintenance more than others. And also, Condition Monitoring System is very important for remote controlled small hydro-power plant although most of it is installed in Large hydro-power plant.

A magnetic field generator for small animal study was designed and constructed. For calculation of magnetic fields inside the cage, a three-dimensional calculation program was made. Using this, optimum electric current ratio and position of each coil were determined. Meanwhile, inductance of the generator was calculated for design of power supply. The field measurement results of the manufactured generator showed that the difference between maximum and minimum magnetic field at the living floor was less than 2%.

This study suggests a new type shaft generator driven by hydraulic power suitable for small size vessels. Since the shaft generator system is very easy to be affected by disturbances such as speed variation of the main engine and the load variation of the generator, a robust servo control must be performed to obtain stable electric power with constant frequency. So, in this study the robust servo control method is adopted to the controller design. Dynamic characteristics on the frequency variations of the electric power output according to the disturbances are investigated by computer simulations. From the considerations of the computer simulation results, it is ascertained that the shaft generator system proposed in this study had good control performances.
