In this paper, a detection technique of initial rotor position at a standstill in Toroidal Switched Reluctance Motor(TSRM) with built-in interior central pole search coil is proposed. In case search coils are used as a position sensor, it has many advantages like low cost, decrease in the volume, high robust characteristics and wide applications. However, the initial rotor position detection is very difficult because the search coil's EMF is not exist at a standstill. In this paper, a new detection method of initial rotor position is suggested using interior central pole search coil. The simulation and experiment for the proposed method and their results support the validity of the proposed scheme by verifying the operation of a 6/4 TSRM using search coils.

The KSTAR (Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research) prototype TF (Toroidal Field) coil was tested in the superconducting coil test facility in KBSI (Korea basic Science Institute). The test was divided into several campaigns according to the objectives. The objectives of the first campaign were to cool the coil into operating temperature and to find any defect in the coil such as cold leaks. From the results of the first campaign, which was carried out during Jan. 2003, any defect in the TF prototype coil was not found. At the second campaign, the large-current charging experiment was one of the major issues, and was carried out during Aug. 2003 In this paper, the test preparation, and the test results of the second campaign were presented.

A method for driving and position sensing of TSRM(Toroidal Switched Reluctance Motor) using the search coil is presented in this paper. Position information of the rotor is essential for SRM drives. The rotor position sensor such as an opto-interrupter or high performance encoder is generally used for the estimation of rotor position. However, these discrete position sensors not only add complexity and cost to the system but also tend to reduce the reliability of the drive system. In order to solve these problems, in the proposed method, rotor position detection is achieved using the voltage waveforms induced by the time varying flux linkage in the search coils, and then the appropriate phases are excited to drive the SRM. But the search coil EMF is generated only when the motor rotates. Therefore the rotor position sensing method at standstill is also suggested.

지금까지의 핵융합 장치는 자기우물과 열역학을 바탕으로 한 토카막 장치가 수소핵융합을 하였으나 고온의 플라스마를 장시간 동안 가둠이란 현실적으로 불가능하여 성공사례가 없었다. 본 핵융합 촉진 방법을 이용한 새로운 핵융합 장치는 토카막 장치의 토로이달 자기장용 알루미늄코일 내에 토러스 철심 C형 Core Block과 토로이달 알루미늄코일을 넣어 토로이달 자기장을 모으고 토로이달 전류 흐르도록 하여 토러스 Core의 일부가 절개된 간극사이에 핵융합로를 배치하고 융합원료(전해액)를 토로이달 전류로 전기분해 한다. 전원과 토로이달 자계용 코일, 토로이달 코일 융합원료로 직렬회로로 이루어져 있어 토로이달 전류는 필라멘트 전류로 되어 융합원료에 투입된다. 필라멘트 전류사이에는 자기흡입력이 외부의 입력전력으로 계속 증대되어 쿨롱에 힘을 넘어 핵융합에 이르고 그로인해 질량결손이 생겨 아인슈타인의 질량에너지$(E=mC^2)$가 빛에너지와 열에너지로 방출됨을 확인했다.

For the optimal design of a tokamak-type reactor, self-consistent determination of a radial build of reactor systems is important and the radial build has to be determined by considering the plasma physics and engineering constraints which inter-relate various reactor systems. In a low aspect ratio (LAR) tokamak reactor with a superconducting toroidal field (TF) coil, the shield should provide sufficient protection for the superconducting TF coil and the shield plays a key role in determining the size of a reactor. To determine the radial build of a reactor, neutronic effects such as tritium breeding in the blanket, nuclear heating, and radiation damage to toroidal field (TF) coil has to be included in the systems analysis. In this work, the outboard blanket only is considered where tritium self-sufficiency is possible by using an inboard neutron reflector instead of breeding blanket. The reflecting shield should provide not only protection for the superconducting TF coil but also improved neutron economy for the tritium breeding in outboard blanket. Tungsten carbide, metal hydride such as titanium hydride and zirconium hydride can be used for improved shielding performance and thus smaller shield thickness. With the use of advanced technology in the shield, conceptual design of a compact superconducting LAR reactor with aspect ratio of less than 2 will be presented as a viable power plant.

A magnetic field calculation method for toroidal type winding which has circular section was developed. At first, the equation for magnetic field by single filament coil was extended using numerical integration to estimate the entire interesting region of solenoid, especially winding region itself. And then, the magnetic field by toroidal arrangement of solenoids was computed with a coordinate transformation of vector fields. The superconducting magnet with toroidal arrangement can be made up of several tens of solenoid type double pancake windings for some applications such as superconducting magnetic energy storage system(SMES). In this system, the field calculation on the high-Tc superconducting(HTS) tape itself is very important because the entire system can be reached to a fault by magnetic stress of conductor or the critical current of superconducting tape can be dramatically reduced under its self field condition. To make matters worse, 3-dimensional analysis is indispensable for this type of magnet and the most of commercial programs with finite element method can be taken too much time for analysis and design. In this paper, a magnetic field calculation method for toroidal type winding with circular section was induced.

High temperature superconducting (HTS) magnets for large-capacity energy storage system need to be composed of toroid magnets with high energy density, low leakage magnetic fields, and easy installation. To realize such a large capacity of a toroid HTS magnet, an HTS cable with large current capacity would be preferred because of the limited DC link voltage and instantaneous high power required for compensation of the disturbance in the power grid. In this paper, the optimal operating strategies of the SMES for peak load reduction of the microgrid system were calculated according to the load variation characteristics, and the effect of compensation of the frequency change in microgrid with a SMES were also simulated. Based on the result of the simulation, key design parameters of SMES coil were presented for two cases to define the specification of the HTS cable with large current capacities for winding of HTS toroid coils, which will be need for development of the HTS cable as a future work.

본 논문에서는 스위치드 릴럭턴스 모터의 새로운 회전자 위치 검출법을 제안한다. 기존의 위치센서의 약점을 보완하기 위해 위치 검출 방법의 저 비용과 강인성에 관심을 갖고, 시변 쇄교자속에 의해 토로이달 SRM의 내부에 장착된 서치 코일에 유기되는 전압 파형을 이용하여 위치 검출을 시도하였다. 서치 코일에서 유기되는 전압 파형이 회전자의 위치정보를 포함하고 있으므로, 이를 이용해 회전자의 특정위치를 검출하고 적절한 상을 여자시킴으로써 SRM을 구동할 수 있게 된다. 실험을 통하여 서치코일만을 이용하여 토로이달 SRM을 구동시킨 결과와 엔코더를 사용하여 구동시킨 결과와 비교함으로써 본 논문에서 제시한 방법의 타당성을 검증하였다.

This study proposes a unified method to design toroidal transformer and its optimal design algorithm. This unified design method was derived from the fundamental equation of power on the basis of electromagnetic energy of a core and the definition of three parameters(K1, K2, KW) that influence the form of a core and the ratio of a core and coil. Accordingly this design method condenses the whole data for design of toroidal transformer to a standard variable which is the inner diameter of a core. The minimal cost, weight and volume values of the transformer were computed by means of the algorithm to search the optimal values of the parameters. Furthermore, through the CAD, the efficiency of this unified design method and optimal algorithm proposed in this paper was confirmed.
