The axial flux machine has higher power density than conventional radial flux machine, so it is widely applied to various industrial area, for instance, low speed wind power generator. For the conventional radial flux machine, 2D finite element method (FEM) is generally applied, but axial flux machine has to employ 3D FEM with long analysis time due to its own structural characteristic. This paper deals with the performance comparison of axial flux machine according to volume.

Recently more attention is paid to the development of high-speed permanent magnet (PM) synchronous generators driven by gas-turbine, since they are conductive to high efficiency, high power density, small size, low weight, simple mechanical construction, easy maintenance and good reliability. In this paper, the performance analysis of a high-speed PM synchronous generator for military power application considering the min-max operating speed is presented. The output current and power versus DC-link voltage loci can obtained by solving the PM machine's steady-state equations for variable resistive load.

This paper deals with the magnetic field analysis and compution of cogging torque using an analytical method in high speed brushless motor/generator. The magnetic field is analyzed by solving space harmonics field analysis due to magnetizing distribution and the cogging torque is analyzed by combining field analysis with relative permeance.

This study performed the numerical analysis of the internal nozzle flows including cavitation phenomena by using the automated body-fitted grid generator and the multi-fluid model. The effect of grid refinement and the validation of multifluid model were investigated using four computational meshes under two test conditions. The mesh #3 was chosen as the optimum which can reduce the computational time and have good prediction ability to identify the cavitation region simultaneously. In addition, the computed results using multi-fluid model were compared with the reference experimental observations and numerical simulation results using homogeneous equilibrium model. From the distribution of volume fraction and velocity field, the multi-fluid model predicted the internal nozzle flows well when the liquid quality parameters were selected as $1.0{\times}10^{12}$ for initial number density and 25 ${\mu}m$ for bubble diameter.

A resonant type voltage source and power device and a control method using Pulse Density Modulation(PDM) power control and Pulse Width Modulation(PWM) voltage control for Ozone Generator are described. For the stability of discharge in the generating tube, it is desirable that the peak apply voltage is constant. The PDM power control is employed for sustaining the voltage constant at any generating tube input power. Moreover, to avoid the influence of input AC voltage fluctuation etc., PWM voltage control with generating tube peak voltage feedback is used. Both functions were confirmed by the experiment with 6.5[kHz], 1.8[kW] inverter and generating tube. The effect of input synchronous PDM method for input current stabilizing is confirmed also.

To increase the efficiency of a wind energy conversion system (WECS), the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm is usually employed. This paper proposes an optimal MPPT algorithm which tracks a sudden wind speed change condition fast. The proposed method can be implemented without the prior information on the wind turbine parameters, generator parameters, air density or wind speed. By investigating the directions of changes of the mechanical output power in wind turbine and rotor speed of the generator, the proposed MPPT algorithm is able to determine an optimal speed to achieve the maximum power point. Then, this optimal speed is set to the reference of the speed control loop. As a result, the proposed MPPT algorithm forces the system to operate at the maximum power point by using a three-phase converter. The simulation results based on the PSIM are given to prove the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper treated the design and characteristics of high speed motor/generator with ring wound stator for the flywheel energy storage system. The most important advantages of the ring-wound motor is the slotless stator, i.e. no cogging torque, no space harmonic of air-gap flux density, etc. Because of these advantages, ring wound type motor is suitable to operate at the high speed.

This paper introduce the electrical quantities of a three-phase-connected wind induction generator (WIG) under sudden connection of static loads. An intelligent power-system recorder/monitor is employed to measure threephase voltages and currents of the studied system at WIG's terminals and load's terminals for 5 minutes. A laboratory 300 W wound-rotor induction machine driven by a blushless DC motor is utilized as the studied WIG. Since the generated harmonic currents are randomly varied, total harmonic distortion (THD) of current using cumulative probability density function is employed to determine the penetration of harmonic distortion. The results show that the harmonic currents generated by the studied WIG may be severely amplified to a high level by the connected self-excited capacitance at the stator's terminals.

In this paper, air gap flux density is calculated by permeance model which can consider the effects of the stator slot and the salient pole shape of the salient synchronous generator. No load Electro-motive force(EMF) of the short-pitched and distributed stator winding is also calculated. Therefore, it's very convenient to calculate the THD of the no load EMF for the user's request, in the first design state.

In this paper, 10kV solid-state pulsed power modulator with high repetition rate is described. The modulator is based on a Marx generator that charges capacitors in parallel and discharges them in series. Twelve IGBTs and capacitors are connected in series to generate output voltages up to 10kV at a repetition rate of 100kHz. The volume of the modulator is 26.1 liters, and its maximum average output power is 10kW. Therefore, the compact design is achieved with a high power density of 380 W/L. Finally, it is confirmed that the pulsed power modulator can operate stably through the experiment results at 10kV 100kHz condition.
