The power loss of the controllable switches in modular multilevel converter (MMC) HVDC transmission systems is an important factor, which can determine the design of the operating junction temperatures. Due to the dc current component, the approximate calculation tool provided by the manufacturer of the switches cannot be used for the losses of the switches in the MMC. Based on the enabled probabilities of each SM in an arm, the current analytical models of the switches can be determined. The average and RMS currents can be obtained from the corresponding current analytical model. Then, the conduction losses can be calculated, and the switching losses of the switches can be estimated according to the upper limit of the switching frequency. Finally, the thermal resistance model of the switches can be utilized, and the junction temperatures can be estimated. A comparison between the calculation and PSCAD simulation results shows that the proposed method is effective for estimating the junction temperatures of the switches in the MMC.

A molecular memory device which has a structure of Al/$Al_2O_3$/ASA-15 LB monolayer/Ti/Al device, was fabricated. To study a charge transfer mechanism of molecular memory devices, current density-voltage (J-V) characteristics were measured at an increasing temperature range from 10 K to 300 K with an interval of 30 K. Strong temperature-dependent electrical property and tunneling through organic monolayer at low bias (below 0.5 V) were appeared. These experimental data were fitted by using a theoretical formula such as the Simmons model. In comparison between the theoretical and the experimental results, it was verified that the fitting results using the Simmons model about direct tunneling was fairly fitted below 0.5 V at both 300 K and 10 K. Hopping conduction was also dominant at all voltage range above 200 K due to charges trapped by defects located within the dielectric stack, including the $Al_2O_3$, organic monolayer and Ti interfaces.

A mathematical heat transfer model for the prediction of heat flux on the slab surface and temperature distribution in the slab has been developed by considering the thermal radiation in the furnace and transient conduction governing equations in the slab, respectively. The furnace is modeled as radiating medium with spatially varying temperature and constant absorption coefficient. The slab is moved with constant speed through non-firing, charging, preheating, heating, and soaking zones in the furnace. Radiative heat flux which is calculated from the radiative heat exchange within the furnace modeled using the FVM by considering the effect of furnace wall, slab, and combustion gases is applied as the boundary condition of the transient conduction equation of the slab. Heat transfer characteristics and temperature behavior of the slab is investigated by changing such parameters as absorption coefficient and emissivity of the slab. Comparison with the experimental work shows that the present heat transfer model works well for the prediction of thermal behavior of the slab in the reheating furnace.

기 수립한 열해석 모델을 바탕으로 접촉열전도가 있는 부위의 민감도 해석을 수행함으로서 향후 기계적 접속 부위 설계 변경시의 열설계에 대한 연구를 수행했다. 해석의 편의를 위해 비교적 간단한 열해석 모텔을 선택했다. 위성 버스 전압과 접촉열저항의 크기를 다양하게 변화시켜 해석을 수행했으며, 그 결과 향후 통일한 모듈에서 기계적 접속 조건 변경시 접촉열저항을 원래의 설계원용치를 기준 값으로 해 히터의 용량을 충분히 크게 설계할 경우 성공적인 열설계가 가능하리라 여겨진다.

This study investigated a compact regenerative evaporative cooler (REC). To achieve practical applications of an REC, it is very important to consider the compactness as well as the cooling performance. Therefore, a prototype of the REC was designed and fabricated to improve the compactness by reducing the length through the insertion of fins in both the dry and wet channels. The REC prototype was tested in terms of performance evaluation under various operating conditions. An analytical model was also developed to analyze the effects of the axial conduction through the solid body of the REC, the wetness of the surface in the wet channel, and the thermal capacity of the evaporation water flow. The model was validated by comparing the results of a simulation with experimental data. The numerical simulation was based on the model to analyze the performance of the REC and to suggest methods to improve the cooling performance of the REC. Finally, the performance of the present REC was compared to that obtained in previous experimental studies. The results showed that the REC prototype in the present study is the most compact and achieves the highest cooling performance.

Toward the practical applications, on operation of conduction-cooled HTS SMES at temperatures well below 77 K should be investigated, in order to take advantage of a greater critical current density of HTS and considerably reduce the size and weight of the system. Recently, research and development concerning application of the conduction-cooled HTS SMES that is easily movement are actively progressing in Korea. Electrical insulation under cryogenic temperature is a key and an important element in the application of this apparatus. However, the behaviors of insulators for cryogenic conditions in air or vacuum are virtually unknown. Therefore, this work focuses on the breakdown and flashover phenomenology of dielectrics exposed in vacuum for temperatures ranging from room temperature to cryogenic temperature. Firstly, we summary the insulation factors of the magnet for HTS SMES. And a surface flashover as well as volume breakdown in air and vacuum has been investigated with two kind insulators. Finally, we will discuss applications for the HTS SMES including aging studies on model coils exposed in vacuum at cryogenic temperature.

The effective elasticity and conduction of composite materials containing arbitrarily oriented multiple phases has been analyzed using the concept of orientation-dependent average fields and concentration factors. The analysis provided closed form expressions for the effective stiffnesses and conductivities. Under the prescribed boundary conditions, the concentration factors were evaluated by the equivalent inclusion principle, through which the interaction between various phases is approximated by the Mori-Tanaka mean-field approximation. SiC particulate(SiC$_{p}$) reinforce aluminum(Al) matrix composites were fabricated and their elastic constants and electrical conductivities were measured together with a careful study of their microstructure. The measured properties showed a systematic anisotropy and this behavior could be attributed to the preferred orientation of SiC$_{p}$. The theoretical model developed was applied to the computation of the anisotropic properties of these composites. Both two-phase and three-phase composites were considered based on the microstructural information. The SiC$_{p}$ was modeled as an ellipsoid with planar random orientation distribution in the extruded Al/SiC$_{p}$ composites. The effect of extraneous phase such as intermetallic compounds was also investigated.tigated.

본 논문에서는 Two transistor forward(TTF) DC-DC 컨버터의 회로방식에 대한 전력변환 효율특성을 빠르고 효과적인 분석 방법에 대해 보고한 것이다. TTF 컨버터의 회로 구성 소자 중에서 내부 기생저항만을 고려한 등가회로를 유도하고 이상적인 동작 파형을 이용하여 전류의 실효값과 전도손실을 유도하였다. 해석을 간단하게 하기위해서 정상상태 결과로부터 코어 손실은 무시하였으며, 다이오드의 손실과 전도손실 만을 고려하였다. 해석결과의 타당성을 검토하기 위해서 시험용 TTF 컨버터를 구성하여 검증하였다. 입력전압 390V, 출력전압 12V, 최대전력 480W의 조건에서 실험결과와 해석결과와 비교적 잘 일치한다는 것을 본 논문에서 확인 하였다.
