In this paper, the design method and experimental validation for the two-degree-of-freedom (2DOF) electromagnetic energy harvester are presented. The harvester consists of the rigid body suspended by four tension springs and electromagnetic transducers. Once the two resonant frequencies and the mass properties are specified, both the constant and the positions for the springs can be determined in the closed form. The designed harvester can locate two resonant peaks close to each other and forms the extended frequency bandwidth for power harvesting. Halbach magnet array is also introduced to enhance the output power. In the experiment, two resonant frequencies are measured at 34.9 and 37.6 Hz and the frequency bandwidth improves to 5 Hz at the voltage level of 207.9 mV. The normalized peak power of 4.587 mW/G² is obtained at the optimal load resistor of 367 Ω.

In this paper, the two-axis theory is adopted to analyze the secondary excited induction generator applied to random wave input generation system. The analysis by the two-axis theory helps to know the transmitted power of the induction machine. The electric variables, like as primary and secondary currents, voltages, and electric output power, were able to express as equations. These equations are help to simulate the generation system numerical model and to know the transient state of the system. As it is preferred to stabilize the output voltage and frequency in the constant level, microcomputer controlled VSI connected to the secondary windings supplies the secondary current with slip frequency. For testing the appropriateness of this method, the input torque simulator in the laboratory to drive the secondary excited results show the advantage of secondary excited induction generator system for the random input wave generation system.

Heumgyeonggaknu is a water-hammering type automatic water clock which was made by Jang Yeong-Sil in 1438. The water clock that is located in Heumgyeonggaknu consists of Suho which is equipped with 2-stage overflow. Constant water wheel power is generated by supplying a fixed amount of water of Suho to Sususang, and this power is transferred to each floor at the same time. The 1st floor rotation wheel of Gasan consists of the operation structure which has the shape of umbrella ribs. The 2nd floor rotation wheel is made so that the 12 hour signal, Gyeong-Jeom signal, and Jujeon constitute a systematic configuration. The 3rd floor rotation wheel is made so that the signal and rotation of Ongnyeo and four gods can be accomplished. Based on the above conceptual design, this paper analyzed the internal signal generation and power transmission of Heumgyeonggaknu.

A new SEPIC-Flyback converter is proposed. The proposed converter is the integration of SEPIC and Flyback converter. Not only SEPIC output but also Flyback output could be fully regulated by constant frequency PWM control. Merged SEPIC and Flyback topology can share the transformer and power MOSFET. When the switch turns on, one topology operates via capacitive energy transfer. The other topology acts as inductive energy transfer while the switch is off. So, it can increase power density per one cycle. The experimental result is presented and verified.

This paper studies the instability between homopolar generator and constant power load with negative impedance characteristics, provides the design method of homopolar generator system which overcomes the instability. In case of magnitude and phase of impedance of source and load mismatch, control instability of source can occur. For the safety of phase of load impedance, the gain of P, I controller with sufficient phase margin is applied through analysis on the simulation model of generator system, and the gain limit of load impedance is ensured by limitation of the gain margin of generator system. The stability of power system can be increased by considering and analyzing the impedance of source and load.

To investigate the affection of lumped mass and spring on the vibration power flow of cross-stiffened plate experiencing bending vibration, structural intensity analysis is done using the modal analysis based on assumed mode method. The numerical analysis is carried out varying the mass and spring constant and their attached positions. The results show that both the spring and the mass may cause to large variation of not only vibratory displacement but also vibratory power flow patterns in case of little change of natural frequencies, and the attachments near to excitation location can effectively reduce the magnitude of maximum structural intensity.

The object of this study is to find the optimal insulation design conditions of a HTS power cable cryostat. The optimum condition of a cable cryostat is obtained by varying types of MLIs, cable core weights, spacer diameters, winding pitches and MLI layer numbers. As the weight of cable core is increased, conduction heat transfer from surroundings to cable cryostat is increased. But as the spacer pitch is increased from 120 mm to 200 mm, the heat leak of cable cryostat remains almost constant. The optimal number of MLI layers is suggested. Double ply MLI is more effective than triple ply MLI and the insulation effect is best when the number of MLI layers is 36.

Recently, Note PCs have being widely used due to their features such as good mobility and low power consumption. In order to ensure the current market position, further improvement is required. Especially, the lower operating voltage is essential for the long operating time of Note PCs. For the achievement of lower operating voltage, possible contributions from LC materials side are to lower the viscosity and to increase the dielectric constant without sacrificing the reliability. In order to achieve lower driving voltage, new LC mixtures have been developed, optimizing theirs physical properties.

This paper presents design and analysis of an HID lamp ballast for a fast turn on characteristics and stable operation. It produces a high open circuit voltage for the ignition and it is controlled to supply effectively the power required to shorten the warm-up period after the breakdown. The lamp modeling by empirical data is presented. It is very effective in the designing of the control loop in the steady-state operating region. A stable operation of the lamp power regulation in the steady state is achieved, which is crucial for the long life time and constant light output. Stability analysis of the system is performed and the results are verified through various simulation results and the hardware experiments.

This paper presents a S-FES(Superconducting magnetic bearing Flywheel Energy Storage System) for the purpose of replacing battery used to store the energy. Especially, the design elements of FES, such as the bearing, wheel material, and power converter, etc., is described. The design and manufacturing techniques of the controllable power converter are proposed to generate the sinusoidal output current in the high speed operation and to get the constant DC voltage in the regeneration mode. The cylindrical permanent magnet synchronous motor with halbach array of Nd-Fe-B permanent magnet which is the high coercivity material is used as the driver of FES. The proposed S-FES system shows the stable rotation characteristics at high speed range about 10,000 rpm. To verify the validity of proposed system, the comparative study with the conventional ball bearing system is proceeded and it is well confirmed with the result of the lower friction loss of S-FES system.
