In order to realize the function of human interface of telecommunications whose objective is to interchange useful information among persons, we developed a bone conduction telephone with which hearing impaired persons with conductive or noise-induced hearing loss and presbycusis can communicate with each other without any other additional devices such as hearing aids. The bone conduction telephone we developed has chatacteristics as follows : (i) a hearing impaired person and a normal hearing person can communicate by bone and air conduction hearings, respectively, using only this telephone set because, as its receiver, it uses a bone conduction vibrator with which we can realize such function with the voice coil and damper of a small speaker unit, the vibrating plate, etc., (ii) it has tone control function compensating hearing losses of hearing impaired persons according to their hearing loss/frequency chatacteristics. Using the tone control function together with a received volume control, it has the received volume range of 20dB in loudness rating; and (iii) it has the function of three emergency calls and a bell lamp as the visual display of a received call.

A contractible heat pipe is designed and tested to improve cooling performance of conduction cooled superconducting magnet. When the heat pipe temperature drops below the triple point temperature, heat pipe working fluid freezes to create low pressure. From this moment the heat pipe does net work any more (OFF state) and it just works as a heat leak path when the temperature of the first stage is higher than that of the second stage. Considering small cooling capacity of the second stage around 4.2 K, the conduction loss is not negligible. Therefore, the contractible heat pipe, made of a metal bellows and copper tubes, was considered to eliminate the conduction loss. Nitrogen and argon are as working fluid of heat pipe. The copper block is cooled down with these heat pipe and the cooling performance for each heat pipe is compared. At off state, the bellows is contracted due to the low pressure of heat pipe and the evaporator section of the heat pipe is detached about 3 mm from the second stage cold head of the cryocooler. In this way, we tan eliminate the conduction loss through the heat pipe wall.

유전율-분광법과 교류 전도도 측정 연구를 망간이 혼입된 층상구조의 $Na_{1.9}Li_{0.1}Ti_3O_7$에 시도하였다. 373-723K 온도와 100Hz-1MHz 주파수 영역에서 loss 탄젠트 (Tan$\delta$), 상대적 유전율 ($\varepsilon_{r}$) 그리고 교류 전도 도 ($\sigma_{ac}$)의 의존성을 혼입 유도체들에 대하여 조사하였다. 다양한 전도도 메커니즘이 존재하는데 MSLT-1과 MSLT-2의 경우에는 낮은 온도영역에서 전자에 의한 전도도를 보인다. MSLT-3의 경우에는 금지된 층간 이온 전 도도가 전자 전도도와 함께 존재한다. 이러한 층간 이온 전도도는 모든 혼입 유도체들에 대하여 중간 온도 영역에 존재한다. 가장 높은 온도 영역에서는 MSLT-1과 MSLT-2의 경우에는 이온 전도도와 polaron에 의한 전도도가 존재하고 MSLT-3에 대하여는 이온 전도도 만이 존재한다. 망간이 혼입된 층상구조의 $Na_{1.9}Li_{0.1}Ti_3O_7$에서 Loss 탄젠트 (Tan$\delta$)는 전자 전도도와 쌍극자의 위치, 그리고 공간 전하 분극화에 기인한다. 상대적 유전율의 증가는 층간 에 쌍극자 수의 증가에 기인하고 반면 상대적 유전율의 감소는 높은 혼입율에 따른 누전 전류의 증가에 기인한다.

This study proposes a new pulse-width modulation switching pattern for the low conduction loss of a three-level neutral point clamped (NPC)-based dual-active bridge (DAB) converter. The operational principle for a bidirectional power conversion is a phase-shift modulation. The conventional switching method of the three-level NPC-based DAB converter shows a symmetric switching pattern. This method has a disadvantage of high root-mean-square (RMS) value of the coupling inductor current, which leads to high conduction loss. The proposed switching method shows an asymmetrical pattern, which can reduce the RMS value of the inductor current with lower conduction loss than that of the conventional method. The performance of the proposed asymmetrical switching method is theoretically analyzed and practically verified using simulation and experiment.

In this paper, a generalized power loss algorithm for multilevel neutral-point clamped (NPC) PWM inverters is presented, which is applicable to any level number of multilevel inverters. In the case of three-level inverters, the conduction loss depends on the MI (modulation index) and the PF (power factor), and the switching loss depends on a switching frequency, turn-on and turn-off energy. However, in the higher level of inverters than the three-level, the loss of semiconductor devices cannot be analyzed by conventional methods. The modulation depth should be considered in addition, to find the different conducting devices depending on the MI. In a case study, the power loss analysis for the three- and five-level NPC inverters has been performed with the proposed algorithm. The validity of the proposed algorithm is verified by simulation for the three-and five-level NPC inverters and experiment for three-level NPC inverter.

Three-level (3L) DC-DC converters are appropriate for high-input-voltage applications. Although the voltage stress of TL converter switches can be reduced to half of the input voltage, the primary side has a large circulating current, which degrades efficiency. In this study, a dual half-bridge cascaded TL converter is presented to reduce this circulating current and thus decrease the conduction loss of the primary circuit. Moreover, the proposed converter can reduce the voltage stress of rectifier diodes, thereby reducing their conduction loss. Therefore, efficiency can be improved by reducing the conduction loss of the primary circuit and rectifier diodes.

The design methodology of an adequate input voltage and magnetizing inductance to minimize reactive power is suggested to design a wireless power transfer (WPT) converter for high-power transfer efficiency. To increase the magnetizing inductance, the turn number of the WPT coil is increased, thus causing high parasitic resistance in the WPT coil. Moreover, the high coil resistance produces high conduction loss in the transfer and receive coils. Therefore, the analysis of conduction loss is used in the design of the WPT coil and the operating point of the WPT converter. To verify the proposed design methodology, the mathematical analysis of the conduction loss is presented by experimental results.

This paper proposes a new zero-current switching (ZCS) pulse-width modulation (PWM) switch cell that has no additional conduction loss of the main switch. In this cell, the main switch and the auxiliary switch turn on and turn off under zero current condition. The diodes commutate softly and the reverse recovery problems are alleviated. The conduction loss and the current stress of the main switch are minimized, since the resonating current for the soft switching does not flow through the main switch. Based on the proposed ZCS PWM switch cell, a new family of dc to dc PWM converters is derived. The new family of ZCS PWM converters is suitable for the high power applications employing IGBTs. Among the new family of dc to dc PWM converters, a boost converter was taken as an example and has been analyzed. Design guidelines with a design example are described and verified by experimental results from the 2.5㎾ prototype boost converter operating at 40KHz.

본 논문에서는 주 스위치가 항상 영전압에서 스위칭하는 새로운 영전압 스위칭 방식의 컨버터를 제안하였다. 기존의 영전압 PWM 컨버터의 공진 인덕터와 포화인덕터은 보조 스위치의 전도손실을 줄이기 위하여 두 개의 포화 인덕터로 대체되었다. 따라서, 제안된 컨버터는 주 스위치가 영전압 스위칭되어 스위칭 손실이 적으며, 주 스위치와 보조 스위치의 전도손실을 줄인 특징이 있다. 주 스위치의 영전압 스위칭 특징을 포함한 특징은 200 kHz에서 실행하여 그 결과를 입증하였다.

Conventional active-clamp forward converter has narrow ZVS range of main switch. Although utilizing high magnetizing current can realize wide ZVS range, it increases the conduction loss. To solve this problem, a new asymmetric two-transformer active clamp forward converter is proposed. Proposed converter achieves wide ZVS range without severe conduction loss penalty, which results in high efficiency and high power density.
