The miniaturization of an electrostatic precipitator has become a key element in successfully constructing an efficient electrostatic precipitator because of the limited space allowed for installation in a subway tunnel. Therefore, the miniaturization of the rapping system of the electrostatic precipitator has also become important. This research proposes a resonant-type electromagnetic vibration exciter as a vibrating rapper for an electrostatic precipitator. The compact vibrating rapper removes collected dust from the collecting plates without direct impact on those collecting plates. To characterize the dynamic performance of the electromagnetic vibration exciter, finite element analysis was performed using a commercial electromagnetic analysis program, MAXEWLL. Moreover, we analyzed the resonant frequency of an electrostatic precipitator, to which the electromagnetic vibration exciter was applied, by ANSYS. Also, to measure the acceleration generated by the electromagnetic vibration exciter, we manufactured a prototype of the ESP and electromagnetic vibration exciter and measured its acceleration at the resonant frequency.

Recently, the reduction of electromagnetic vibration and noise of a capacitor motor (CRM) has become a very important subject from the standpoint of environmental improvement. Therefore, the authors have studied the characteristics of the dominant electromagnetic vibration of the CRM under load condition. In this paper, the effects of slot combination and skewed slot on the dominant electromagnetic vibration of a CRM under load condition are discussed both theoretically and experimentally. As a result, the characteristics of the dominant electromagnetic vibration for the slot combination and the reduction effect of the skewed slot on the electromagnetic vibration are clarified for a 4-pole CRM.

A hybrid electromagnetic actuator with an air mount is designed so as to achieve the desired isolation reduce the vibration efficiency on the floor vibration. The performance specification of the hybrid electromagnetic actuator is determined based on the vibration criterion for vibration-sensitive equipment. In the design stage of the electromagnetic actuator, the simple reluctance method is adapted to analyze magnetic circuits. The result is verified by finite element analysis using ANSYS Emag. Finally, in order to confirm the design performance, a dynamic characteristic test is carried out for the prototype of a hybrid electromagnetic actuator.

This paper presents the wideband vibration system of an electromagnetic vibration energy harvester that obtained electric power for wireless sensor applications from the ever-change vibrations of bridge. It is a system with two degree of freedom vibrations that are composed of two mass and two spring respectively. One system is housing mass and spring, the other is the magnetic mass and spring that is the vibration system construction's element of electromagnetic vibration energy harvester. In other words, it is called dynamic vibration absorber. This paper show that the ratio of housing mass to magnetic mass decides the bandwidth and the size of amplitude of magnetic mass in electromagnetic vibration energy harvester. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the efficiency of energy in electromagnetic vibration energy harvester for wireless sensor applications.

Reduction of electromagnetic vibration and acoustic noise from three-phase squirrel-cage induction motors (IMs) is very important, particularly from the standpoint of environmental considerations. Although the electromagnetic vibration of IMs has been studied for several years, the relationships between the radial distribution of the electromagnetic vibration and noise and the electromagnetic forces responsible for them have not yet been analyzed in sufficient detail. In the present study, we investigated this relationship experimentally for a small IM under different load conditions. Our results clearly show that the radial distributions of the dominant electromagnetic vibration and noise components match the mode shape of the dominant electromagnetic force producing these components.

This paper deals with a uniform cantilever Euler-Bernoulli beam subjected to follower and transversal force at its free end as a model for a pipe conveying fluid under electromagnetic damper force. The electromagnetic damper is composed of a permanent-magnet DC motor, a ball screw and a nut. The main objective of the current work is to reduce the pipe vibration resulting from the fluid velocity and allow it to transform into electric energy. To pursue this goal, the stability and vibration of the beam model was studied using Ritz and Newmark methods. It was observed that increasing the fluid velocity results in a decrease in the motion of the free end of the pipe. The results of simulation showed that the designed semiactive electromagnetic damper controlled by on-off damping control strategy decreased the vibration amplitude of the pipe about 5.9% and regenerated energy nearly 1.9 (mJ/s). It was also revealed that the designed semi-active electromagnetic damper has better performance and more energy regeneration than the passive electromagnetic damper.

The pneumatic isolator is widely adopted for anti-vibration of precision measuring and manufacturing equipments. But, when the precision demand on anti-vibration is extreme or the load is moving, the performance of anti-vibration can not meet satisfaction. In these cases, as a complementary, active vibration suppression system can be added for advanced performance. In this paper, an active control system is presented, which uses electromagnetic actuators for vibration suppression. The anti-vibration characteristic of pneumatic isolator is analyzed for system modeling and actuator specifying. The modeling and the 3D dynamic simulation is performed for control system design. For the electromagnetic actuator design, the magnetic flex density and the current-force characteristic analysis are achieved.

Semiconductor piezoresistive type vibration sensor was fabricated by using semiconductor process and micromachining technology. To measure the micro electromagnetic force between coil and magnet, fabricated vibration sensor was used. Toapply micro electromagnetic force produced from the micro exciter, small-sized NdFeB permanent magnet was attached on the mass of the fabricated vibration sensor. The measured electromagnetic force are about 5~180dyne when the applied sinusoidal current of 1KHz in the range of 1.5~8mA. The measurement of micro electromagnetic forcewas performed by changing the distance between coil and magnet. Output characteristics of micro electromagnetic force according to the applied coil current were linear. Furthermore, output results were used to get the transfer constant that is important to decide the efficiency and the performance of the coil and magnet.
