There are generally two temperature control methods using ac voltage regulators - the phase control method and the on-off control method. The phase control method uses thyristor's angles of extinction for the output power regulation and the on-off control method uses the control of on and off times for the output power regulation. Both of methods have the problems that are the unbalance of the three phase and surge current caused system's destruction. The main object of this study proposes a solution of problems of surge currents and unbalance of three phase when thyristor voltage regulator is switching. To solve the problem, It is proposes that the solution of surge currents is using a tap transformer and an additional switch with adjustable resistance and applies zero crossing of switching voltage of two input line to power load. This method is discuss and verified by computer simulations and experiments.

Generally additional leakage inductance and two clamp diodes are adopted into the conventional phase shift full bridge (PSFB) converter for reducing the voltage stress of secondary rectifier diodes and extending the range of zero voltage switching (ZVS) operation. However, since additional leakage inductance carries the ac current similar to the primary one, the core and copper loss oriented from additional leakage inductance can be high enough to decrease the whole efficiency of DC/DC converter. Therefore, in this paper, a new ZVS phase shift full bridge converter with separated primary winding (SPW) is proposed. Proposed converter makes the transformer and additional leakage inductor with one ferrite core. Using this method, leakage inductance is controlled by the winding ratio of separated primary winding. Moreover, by manufacturing the both magnetic components with one core, size and core loss can be reduced and it turns out the improvement of efficiency and power density of DC/DC converter. The operational principle of proposed converter is analyzed and verified by the 1.2kW prototype.

There is an increasing demand for efficient high power/weight auxiliary power supplies for use on high speed traction application. Many new conversion techniques have been proposed to reduce the voltage and current stress of switching components, and the switching losses in the traditional pulse width modulation (PWM) converter. Especially, the phase shift full bridge zero voltage switching PWM techniques are thought must desirable for many applications because this topology permits all switching devices to operate under zero voltage switching(ZVS) by using circuit parasitic components such as leakage inductance of high frequency transformer and power device junction capacitance. The proposed topology is found to have higher efficiency than conventional soft-switching converter. Also it is easily applicable to phase shift full bridge converter by applying an energy recovery snubber consisted of fast recovery diodes and capacitors.

디지털 제품의 사용 증가로 직류를 사용하는 부하가 급증하고, 태양광발전 등 직류발전의 보급이 확대 되며 직류배전에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 기존 영상변류기(ZCT; Zero phase sequence Current Transformer)를 사용하여 누설전류를 감지하는 교류배전용 차단기는 영상변류기의 특성상 직류에서 적용이 불가능하다. 이에 따라 직류배전에서 누설전류에 의한 사고를 방지하기 위해서 누설전류를 검출하고 차단할 수 있는 장치 개발이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 직류에서 검출에 문제가 없는 Fluxgate current transducer를 이용하여 직류배전에서 사용 가능한 검출기를 개발하였다.

Three-phase four-wire electrical distribution systems are widely employed in manufacturing plants, commercial and residential buildings. Due to the nonlinear loads connected to the distribution system, the neutral conductor carries excessive harmonic currents even under balanced loading since the triplen harmonics in phase currents do not cancel each other. This may result in wiring failure of the neutral conductor and overloading of the distribution transformer. In response to these concerns, a cost-effective neutral current harmonic suppressor system has been proposed [6]. This paper proposes an improved control method for the harmonic suppressor system under unbalanced load conditions. The proposed control method compensates for only the harmonic components in the neutral conductor, and the zero-sequence fundamental component due to unbalanced loading is prevented from flowing through the harmonic suppressor system. This remedies overloading and power loss of the system. The experimental results on a prototype validate the proposed control approach.

The conventional 60(Hz) power supply for driving magnetron in microwave oven has disadvantages of heavy weight and low efficiency due to 60(Hz) High Voltage Transformer(HVT), capacitor and the phase control of thyristors with open-loop controller. To alleviate these disadvantages, this paper proposes a 20(kHz) phase-shifted(PS) Full-Bridge(FB) Zero- voltage-Switched(ZVS) PWM converter to drive a 600(W) magnetron in an 1(kW) microwave oven and to control the average anode current.

A DSP-based self-adaptive proportional-integral (PI) controller to control a DC-DC converter is proposed in this paper. The full-bridge topology is adopted here to obtain higher power output capability and higher conversion efficiency. The converter adopts the zero-voltage-switching (ZVS) technique to reduce the conduction losses. A parallel secondary active clamp circuit is added to deal with the voltage overshoot and ringing effect on the transformer's secondary side. A self-adaptive PI controller is proposed to replace the traditional PI controller. Moreover, the designed converter adopts the constant-current and constant-voltage (CC-CV) output control strategy. The secondary active clamp mechanism is discussed in detail. The effectiveness of the proposed converter was experimentally verified by an IGBT-based 10kW prototype.

A new high efficiency phase shifted full bridge (PSFB) converter for the power sustaining module of a plasma display panel (PDP) is proposed in this paper. The proposed converter employs a voltage doubler rectifier without an output inductor. Since it has no output inductor, the voltage stresses of the secondary rectifier diodes can be clamped at the output voltage level. No dissipative resistor-capacitor (RC) snubber for rectifier diodes is needed. Therefore, high efficiency, as well as, a low noise output voltage can be realized. Due to the elimination of the large output inductor, it features a simple structure, lower cost, smaller mass and lighter weight. Furthermore, the proposed converter has wide zero voltage switching (ZVS) ranges with low current stresses of the primary switches. Also the resonance between the leakage inductor of the transformer and the capacitor of the voltage doubler cell reduces the current stresses of the rectifier diodes. In this paper, operational principles, an analysis of the proposed converter and experimental results are presented.

관례의 전력계통에서는 스위칭 컨트롤러, 반도체 전력변환 설비, 사무 자동화 기기, PC 등으로 인하여 중성선에 많은 양의 영상 고조파가 발생하게 된다. 이러한 중성선 영상 고조파 전류를 줄이기 위하여 리액터의 일종인 NHER (Neutral-line Harmonics Eliminating Reactor)를 설계하고 해석하는 연구를 수행하였다. C++프로그램을 활용하여 NHER의 설계프로그램을 개발하였고, 설계프로그램을 확인하기 위해 380/220[V], 200[A]의 모델을 적용하여 설계 및 해석하였다. 최적화 설계 결과 철손이 26[%] 저감되었고, 특히 9 고조파는 다른 고조파에 비하여 크게 감소하였다. NHER을 설계할 때에는 실제 적용되는 부하의 영상고조파나 효율 등을 고려하면 더 좋은 결과가 나올 것이다.
