This paper proposes the control method for compensating for unbalanced grid current and reducing a total harmonic distortion (THD) of the grid current at the three-phase grid-connected inverter systems under unbalancd and distorted grid voltage conditions. The THD of the grid current caused by grid voltage harmonics is derived by considering the phase delay and magnitude attenuation due to the hardware low-pass filter (LPF). The Cauchy-Schwarz inequality theory is used in order to search more easily for a minimum point of THD. Both the gain and angle of a compensation voltage at the minimum point of THD of the grid current are derived. The negative-sequence components in the three-phase unbalanced grid voltage are cancelled in order to achieve the balanced grid current. The simulation and experimental results show the validity of the proposed control methods.

We have extended an absolute evaluation method to obtain the ratio error and phase displacement of a current transformer (CT) up to primary current of 40,000 A by measuring four parameters of equivalent circuit in CT. The method was applied to CTs under test with the current ratios in the range of 5,000 A / 5 A - 40,000 A / 5 A. The ratio error and phase displacement of the CTs under test obtained in this study are consistent with those measured at the national institutes in Canada and Germany using the same CTs under test within an expanded uncertainty (k = 2) in the overall current ratios.

Conductive Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) films have recently attracted much interest from the viewpoint of ultrathin film conductors at the molecular level. The result shows that the Maxwell-displacement-current(MDC) measuring technique is useful in the detection of phase-transition over the entire range of molecule areas. At the liquid-solid phase transition, a striking feature in the present current measurement was observed; the I-A isotherm for a DPPC monolayer has sharp bend. Dynamic behavior of monolayers in the presence of an external field was also investigated using the current-measuring technique. Dynamic behavier of DPPC monolayer was measured by displacement current when the molecules are stimulated by pressure velocity. As result, it is known that current is generated of higher current pe마 as compression velocity become faster. Also, in order to clarify the reorganization of the lipid monolayers, it is instructive to plot the relationship between I and 1/$A^2$.

A study on the decreasing method of secondary arc current on single phase reclosing. One of the major problem in case of using the single phase reclosing scheme for long distance UHV transmission line is the time required to deionize secondary arc current. This paper descritbes the way of inducing the formular of secondary arc current originated at the times of opening and closing the ground interrupting switch. The result was investigated by the method of numerical analysis and proved that the secondary arc current was decreasing sufficiently. Application of this method proposed by the authod makes it possible to deduce the dead time and to improve success-rate of reclosing.

This paper proposes a performance improvement of existing single-phase current-fed qZ-Source inverter. Voltage gain of the traditional voltage-fed full-bridge inverter and single-phase current-fed qZ-source inverter is only equal to or smaller than input voltage. The proposed inverter can obtain twice higher voltage gain than the single-phase current-fed qZ-Source inverter by adding an extra switch and a capacitor in the circuit. In addition, the proposed inverter shares the common ground between dc input and ac output voltage. Therefore, the proposed inverter can eliminate the possible ground leakage current problem when it is used for grid-tied photovoltaic inverter system. A 120 W prototype inverter is built and tested to verify performances of the proposed inverter.

It is well known that the electrical impedance of biological tissues is very sensitive to their temperature. In this paper, we have analyzed the effects of temperature change on the phase of magnetic resonance images obtained with external current injection. It has been found that the local phase in the current injected magnetic resonance image can be changed noticeably when local temperature change appears at a part of the tissue. At the experiments with a 0.3 Tesla MRI system, we observed the local phase changes at the phantom images when the phantom temperature was varied between 25 -45$^{\circ}C$. We think that the current injection MRI technique can be used for in-vivo monitoring of the temperature inside biiological tissues if the relation between the local temperature and phase can be quantified.

Variable iron loss as function of current phase angle of Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor(IPMSM) was calculated through Curve Fitting Method(CFM). Also, a magnetic flux density distribution of iron core according to current phase angle was analyzed, and an iron loss calculation was performed including harmonic distortion. The experiment was performed by production of non-magnetizing model for the separation of mechanical loss, and the iron loss was calculated by the measurement of input using power analyzer and output power using dynamometer. Some error was generated between experimental results and calculation value, but an iron loss diminution according to current phase angle followed a same pattern. So, errors were generated by measurement, vibration, noise, harmonic distortion loss, etc.

This paper proposes a control method for three-phase PWM rectifier using only single current sensor in DC link. A PWM modulation strategy for reconstructing three phase current from the DC link current is given. The states of the rectifier switch are modified so that all phase currents can be reconstructed in a switching period although one of active vectors is applied only for a short time. Therefore, a novel current control using an adjustment scheme of the modulation signal for a three-phase PWM rectifier will be discussed, and verified with the experimental results.

A method of detecting the three phase currents for a voltage-fed pusle width modulated(PWM) inverter is proposed, where only one current sensor is utilized on the dc-link. The proposed method has the constant sampling time by employing he modified space-vector PWM technique which generates the rearranged switching pattern to detect a phase current from ad dc-link current. Experimental results show that eh proposed scheme provides a very good detection method of three phase currents without phase current sensors. This method is very simple and has small detection errors.

Classically, reluctance torque of IPMSM(Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor) by using inductance according to current phase angle generates an error. This error is affected by total torque. From current phase angle $0^{\circ}$ to large errors will occur, because reluctance torque include current phase angle. But, reluctance torque from steady-state voltage equation of IPMSM is represented by linkage flux. So, reluctance torque is unrelated to the current phase angle formula can be derived. In this paper, operating torque was analyzed by d, q-axis linkage flux of IPMSM and reluctance torque to perform calculations reduced the error of the total torque calculation.
