Phase-shedding, one famous technology for multi-phase converters, is implemented in a bi-directional multi-phase converter for ESS. It reduces active operating modules at light load to compensate efficiency. Shedding point, the load level where the converter changes the number of active modules, is important factor that affects the effect of phase-shedding. Loss analysis is done for determining shedding point. Phase-shedding hysteresis is applied so that excessive phase transition is avoided. This paper proposes shedding point correction where the shedding point is adaptively corrected by calculating a new shedding point.

In this paper, phase shedding algorithm that measuring to converter's input and output parameter during real-time to control the number of driving converters is proposed. The proposed phase-shedding algorithm drives the DVR power supply with the optimal converter's combination without the loss calculation curve and the lookup table in which the efficiency is measured in advance. The proposed algorithm was implemented through a digital controller and verified in a two-modular LLC converter with a single rated power of 60 Win a 120 W DVR power supply system. Experimental results are presented to prove the validity of the proposed algorithm.

Effects of the oscillating incoming flow on vortex shedding and lock-on behind a square cylinder are investigated using numerical simulations at a Reynolds number of 100. Vortex shedding occurred at low forcing frequencies of the incoming flow similar to the natural vortex shedding. As the forcing frequency further increases, the shedding frequency decreases to the half of the forcing freqnency. For a sufficiently large frequency, vortex shedding returns to the natural vortex shedding irrespective of the forcing amplitude. Also, the lock-on region becomes wider with higher forcing amplitudes. The phase diagram between the drag and lift shows a simple periodic behavior in the lock-on region, while a complicated periodic phase relation is observed when there is no lock-on.

THe influence of internal acoustic exitation through a square prism on the turbulent wake flow characteristics was investigated. The intermediate wake region where is about ten times the respective length of the body was experimentally investigated using a conditional phase average technique. At first the static base pressures of square prism and the shedding frequencies have been measured at various internal acoustic exciation frequencies. The experiment were performed under the four cases of internal acoustic excitation frequencies 0Hz 30Hz($St_e$=0.09) 65Hz($St_e$=0.20) 120Hz($St_e$=0.38) And velocity vector fields were presented and discussed. The influence of acoustic exvitation frequencies on the structure of intermediate turbulent wake region is evident. As the internal acoustic frequency increased shedding frequency gradually increased and aerodynamic force decreased. Also it was found that the vortex shedding occurs dratically well and shedding frequency reached nearly the same value as the internal acoustic frequency. but above Strouhal number 0.3 the influence disappeared.

Under frequency load shedding (UFLS) is an effective way to prevent system blackout after a serious disturbance occurs in a power system. A novel centralized adaptive under frequency load shedding (AUFLS) scheme using the synchronous phase measurement unit (PMU) is proposed in this paper. Two main stages are consisted of in the developed technique. In the first stage, the active power deficit is estimated by using the simplest expression of the generator swing equation and static load model since the frequency, voltages and their rate of change can be obtained by means of measurements in real-time from various devices such as phase measurement units. In the second stage, the UFLS schemes are adapted to the estimated magnitude based on the presented model. The effectiveness of the proposed AUFLS scheme is investigated simulating different disturbance in IEEE 10-generator 39-bus New England test system.

A phase shedding control algorithm to increase efficiency of 3-Phase interleaved boost converter is proposed. Conventional interleaved converter has low efficiency under the light load condition. In this paper, the number of phase is controlled in accordance with the load condition to increase the light load efficiency. The validity of proposed phase control algorithm is verified by simulation results based on measured efficiency.

An experimental investigation is conducted to find out the large scale coherent structures in the intermediate wake past a rotating cylinder with a single tripping wire attached. Relation between the vortex shedding frequency and the spin rate of rotating cylinder and the effects of the tripping wire on the flow characteristics were studied by using spectral analysis and conditional phase average technique, respectively. It is found that the vortex shedding frequency is bound to a certain range and varies regularly as spin rate increases. The coherent structures are compared with those of the plain rotating cylinder in the case of spin rate of 1.0. Distance between the upper and lower center of vortices increase and the vortex shedding time is delayed, the velocity fluctuation energy decreases near the center line of vortices and it spreads out to the outer region. The Reynolds shear stress increases highly in the upper region and the turbulent wake width expands with strong entrainment process.

The effect of oscillating on the unsteady laminar flow past a circular cylinder is numerically investigated in the present study. Our study is to analyze the vortex formation behind a circular cylinder for different rotary oscillation conditions. And then we are study to portray the unsteady dynamics of wake flows. We decide lock-on region by observing the phase switching phenomena We classify the vortex formation patterns in the primary lock-on region The present study is to identify the quasi-periodic state around lock-on region. At the boundary between lock-on and non-lock-on the shedding frequency is bifurcated. After the bifurcation, one frequency follow the forcing frequency ($S_f$) and the other returns to the natural shedding frequency ($St_0$). In the quasi-periodic state, the variation of magnitudes and relevant phase changes of $C_L$ with forcing phase are examined.

Near-wake flow field of a circular cylinder is studied by means of a cinematic PIV system with high sampling rate and large internal memory block. Experiments are conducted in a closed-cycle water tunnel system and a cross-correlation algorithm in conjunction with FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) analysis and an offset correlation technique is used for vector processing. With the help of very high sampling frequency compared to the shedding frequency, it is possible to obtain phase-averaged information of the three-dimensional wake, even though the shedding is not forced but natural. Phase-locked vortical structures observed simultaneously from the spanwise and cross-stream planes are displayed in the wake-transition regime where fine-scale secondary vortices have a spanwise wavelength or around one diameter. Spatial relations and temporal evolutions of the primary Karman vortex and the secondary vortex are also discussed schematically.

In this paper, the wake structures behind a square cylinder at the Reynolds number of 22,000 are simulated using the large eddy simulation, and the main features of the wake structure associated with unsteady vortex-shedding are investigated. The Smagorinsky model is used for parametrization of the subgrid scales. The finite element method with isoparametric linear elements is employed in the computations. Unsteady computations are performed using the explicit method with streamline upwind scheme for the advection term. The time integration incorporates a subcycling strategy. No-slip condition is enforced on the wall surface. A comparative study between two-and three-dimensional computations puts a stress on the three-dimensional effects in turbulent flow simulations. Simulated three-dimensional wake structures are compared with numerical and experimental results reported by other researchers. The results include time-averaged, phase-averaged flow fields and numerically visualized vortex-shedding pattern using streaklines. The results show that dynamics of the vortex-shedding phenomenon are numerically well reproduced using the present method of finite element implementation of large eddy simulation.
