  • In different industrial and mission oriented applications, redundant or standby semiconductor systems can be implemented to improve the reliability of power electronics equipment. The proper structure for implementation can be one of the redundant or standby structures for series or parallel switches. This selection is determined according to the type and failure rate of the fault. In this paper, the reliability and the mean time to failure (MTTF) for each of the series and parallel configurations in two redundant and standby structures of semiconductor switches have been studied based on different failure rates. The Markov model is used for reliability and MTTF equation acquisitions. According to the different values for the reliability of the series and parallel structures during SC and OC faults, a comprehensive comparison between each of the series and parallel structures for different failure rates will be made. According to the type of fault and the structure of the switches, the reliability of the switches in the redundant structure is higher than that in the other structures. Furthermore, the performance of the proposed series and parallel structures of switches during SC and OC faults, results in an improvement in the reliability of the boost dc/dc converter. These studies aid in choosing a configuration to improve the reliability of power electronics equipment depending on the specifications of the implemented devices.

  • We have surrounded undesired living noises in our life. One of biggest noises coming out of range hood during cooking in the kitchen. A range hood is one of the most important appliances in the kitchen because it ventilates polluted air out during cooking, and maintains air quality in the kitchen. But current kitchen range hoods bring up some issues; First, the range hoods consume massive amount of standby power not in use condition. Second, current models have designed manual fan operating system with sudden onset of noise with starting. In this paper, we propose an auto control system entire processes from air ventilation to noise reduction. Our system is consist of three parts (Eco-sensors pack, Main Controller and Active Noise Controller); Eco-sensors pack detects air pollution of kitchen areas and sends the detection values to Main Controller. Main Controller determines operation of range hood by detected values. Active Noise Controller is located inside of the range hood. It received starting signals from Main Controller which elicits degrees of polluted air condition and fan operating speed from 1 to 3. Once Active Noise Controller detected the signals, it runs a ventilating fan until new value from Main Controller becomes 0. while the range hood works, A noise cancellation algorithm inside of Active Noise Controller become activated to reduce levels of noise. As a result, the proposed system clearly shows reduction in power consumption include standby power and decreases in levels of noise.

  • The loss of offsite power test was successfully performed on YGN 4 to demonstrate that the reactor can be shutdown and the RCS can be maintained in a hot standby condition following a loss of all offsite Alternating Current (AC) power. Following the loss of main generator and all offsite AC power, the ensile emergency diesel generators were automatically started and the plant was stabilized via natural circulation. Plant conditions were maintained in hot standby for at least 30 minutes before offsite power was restored. Thus, the capability of equipment, controls and instrumentation necessary to remove decay heat from the core using only ensile emergency power was demonstrated, thereby satisfying all objectives and acceptance criteria of the test.

  • Energy cost has been increasing rapidly to comply with environmental regulations worldwide and the manufacturing industry who consumes more than half of the total energy needs to improve their cost competitiveness considering environmental costs. Machine tools are essential elements in manufacturing industry and efforts have been made recently to increase their energy efficiency mainly by German and Japanese machine tool builders. In this paper, trends in energy saving technology are described on the hardware and software sides of peripheral equipment of machine tools. In addition, the power consumption of a machining center is measured and analyzed to develop a software-based standby strategy for energy saving with peripheral equipment of machine tools.

  • A transient natural circulation behavior during a LOCA at hot-standby operation is evaluated for YGN Units 3/4. The plant initial condition is determined within the EOP limitation as suitable to hot-standby mode and the transient scenario is prepared as relevant to evaluation of transient natural circulation. A 0.4% cold leg break with loss of off-site power is calculated with RELAP5/MOD3.2, whose predictability has been verified for SBLOCA natural circulation test, S-NC-8B. Through one hour transient analysis, it is found that the plant has its own decay heat removal capability by natural circulation following a LOCA, at hot-standby mode. Additional calculation is performed to investigate an effect of HPSI flow on natural circulation.

  • In this paper a method of design and Implementation of RFID based control system for reducing standby power consumption at the power outlet is described. The system is composed of a RF controlled power outlet having relay and an active RFID tag communicating with the RF reader module controlling the relay. When the tag carried by human approaches to the RF reader the reader recognizes the tag and switch off the relay based on the RSSI level measurement. A low power packet prediction algorithm has been used to decrease the DC power consumption at both the tag and the RF reader. The result of experiment shows that successful operation of the relay control has been obtained while low power operation of the tag and the reader is achieved using above algorithm. Also setting the distance between the reader and the tag by controlling transmission power of the tag and adjusting the duty cycle of the packet waiting time when the reader is in idle state allows us to reduce DC power consumption at both the reader and the tag.

  • In this paper, new smart switch that can monitor and control the power consumption and standby power in real-time by implementing an embedded web-server is proposed. The proposed switch can perform the following functions: measuring the electric power like commercial smart meter product, monitoring the power consumption in real-time in distant places through wire and wireless devices, and finally controlling ON/OFF of each switch. In addition, it also contains auto power-shutoff functions for standy power, overvoltage and overcurrent just like existing power-saving outlet and mulitap. Finally, the proposed smart switch has lower hardware and power consumption than the existing products and can be commercialized as a small-sized product by using exclusive embedded web-server of its own, rather than using PC for monitoring and remote control.

  • A fully integrated cost-effective and low-power single chip Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) battery protection IC (BPIC) for portable devices is presented. The control unit of the battery protection system and the MOSFET switches are integrated in a single package to protect the battery from over-charge, over-discharge, and over-current. The proposed BPIC enters into low-power standby mode when the battery becomes over-discharged. A new auto release function (ARF) is adopted to release the BPIC from standby mode and safely return it to normal operation mode. A new delay shorten mode (DSM) is also proposed to reduce the test time without increasing pin counts. The BPIC implemented in a $0.18-{\mu}m$ CMOS process occupies an area of $750{\mu}m{\times}610{\mu}m$. With DSM enabled, the measured test time is dramatically reduced from 56.82 s to 0.15 s. The BPIC chip consumes $3{\mu}A$ under normal operating conditions and $0.45{\mu}A$ under standby mode.
