The paper presents the unbalance response of a rotor-bearing system supported by an active control bearing. The proportional, derivative and integral controls are investigated fur the control algorithm of an active control bearing to suppress the unbalance response of a rotor-bearing system. Results of analytical investigations on the unbalance responses of a rotor supported by an active control bearing are presented for various control gains. It is found that the unbalance response of a rotor can be greatly suppressed by the proportional, derivative or integral control of the bearing. The proportional control is more effective than the derivative control at low rotational speed, and the derivative control is more effective than the proportional control at high rotational speed. In the case of the integral control of the bearing, the unbalance response ova rotor is increased as a general rule. However, the integral control of the bearing is extremely superior to proportional or derivative control at very low rotational speed.

The current unbalance occurs in an induction motor with the supply of unbalanced voltage. Existence of an current unbalance occurs by various problems at the time of driving by in crease of the noise not to mention output decrease of a motor by increase of a loss. We confirmed how current unbalance occurred by a voltage unbalance because a slip came to change by the driving situation of a subordinate as for the induction motor. We confirmed that case to run to a low slip in a ratio of the same voltage unbalance rate brought a high current unbalance rate.

This study proposes a new method to estimate voltage unbalance more exactly using Thevenin's equivalent circuit. The conventional simple formula were easily applied to evaluate voltage unbalance. Because the formula was derived on the assumption that traction load would be directly connected to the secondary windings of the main transformer, they could not consider the detailed characteristics of traction power supply system, for example, self and mutual impedances of rail, catenary and return feeder. So, the ac쳐racy of the results could not be guaranteed. The proposed algorithm is applied to a standard autotransformer-fed test system to analyze unbalance phenomena. Through simulations, we could evaluate voltage and current unbalance factors and compare the voltage unbalance of the three transformer connection schemes : single phase, V- and Scott-connections which are required for suitable train operation schedules. Additionally, we could determine the combinations of trains which can be operated under the unbalance factor limits.

A new method of protecting 3-phase squirrel-cage induction motor aginst burning-out by unbalance operation is proposed. This paper studied various kinds of situations occurred by unbalance operating in 3-phase induction motor, and we provided the search coils in the slots of stator and rotor for the purpose of detecting electrical phenpmena during unbalance operation. Through experiments, we find that search coils in the slots of stator is effective method for protecting the induction motor from unbalance operating.

This paper presents a general analytical method for analyzing mechanical unbalance response of unbalanced electromagnetic forces produced in induction motors with an eccentric rotor and a phase unbalance. The equations to be solved are a set of second order differential equations which give matrices with periodic coefficients that are a function of time due to the unbalanced electro-magnetic force. Unbalance response is processed by Newmark $\beta$ method. Two examples are given including an industrial application. The results show that the method proposed is satisfactory.

The spindle unit is a core part in high precision machine tool. Rotation accuracy of spindle unit is needed for high dignity cutting and improving the performance of machine tool. However, there are many factors to effect to rotational error motion(rotation accuracy). This study studied how rotational error motion is variation when unbalance amount is variation. Rotation accuracy of initial spindle unit is decided depending on parts and assembly such as bearing. When it is rotation, vibration and noise is appeared depending on volume of unbalance amount, so it works to decrease unbalance amount. The purpose of the study tests that unbalance amount how much effects to initial rotation condition. The result of the study shows that accuracy of parts and assembly is highly necessary to reach high rotation accuracy and unbalance amount hardly effects to initial rotation accuracy. However, it shorten spindle's life because vibration and noise is increasing by increasing unbalance amount and we can expect situation that rotation accuracy is falling by long time operation.

The voltage unbalance of an LVDC bipolar distribution system was controlled for high power quality. Voltage unbalance may occur in a bipolar distribution system depending on the operation of the converter and load usage. Voltage unbalance can damage sensitive load and lead to converter accidents. The conditions that may cause voltage unbalance in a bipolar distribution system are as follows. First, three-level AC/DC converters in bipolar distribution systems can lead to voltage unbalance. Second, bipolar distribution systems can be at risk for voltage unbalance because of load usage. In this paper, the output DC link of a three-level AC/DC converter was analyzed for voltage unbalance, and the bipolar voltage was controlled with algorithms. In the case of additional voltage unbalance according to load usage, the bipolar voltage was controlled using the proposed converter. The proposed converter is a dual half-bridge converter, which was improved from the secondary circuit of a dual half-bridge converter. A control algorithm for bipolar voltage control without additional converters was proposed. The balancing control of the bipolar distribution system with distributed power was verified through experiments.

In general, utility voltage is maintained at a relatively low level of Phase unbalance since a low level of unbalance can cause a significant power supply ripple and heating effects on the power system equipment. Voltage unbalance more commonly emerges in individual customer loads due to phase load unbalanced, especially where single phase power loads are used. Under unbalanced input voltages large lower order harmonics appears at the input and output ports of Power conversion devices. As the application of adjustable -speed drives (ASDs) and their integration with complex industrial processes increase, so does the need to understand how ASDs perform during voltage This paper describes a real load test to investigate the performance of 3-HP adjustable speed drives by an unbalanced voltage at the low-voltage system.

Most LV customers have been applying three-phase four-wire electric distribution system which supplies 1-phase and 3-phase load concurrently. Due to its structural simplicity, This system is easy to run. But it can also cause many problems from the unbalance, such as reduced output, increased loss etc. Also the unbalance in the load side causes the unbalance in the source side; it may lower the stability of the whole power system. In this paper, we propose the Y-Tz transformer winding method to reduce the current unbalance in the source side. Efficiency of this method was proven through the simulation and verification experiment.

The three-phase diode rectifier with capacitive filter is highly sensitive to line voltage unbalance. Because of its inherent nonlinear characteristics, small line voltage unbalance may cause highly unbalanced line current, causing detrimental effects on power quality. This paper presents a theoretical basis on this ′unbalance amplification effect′ and derives an analytical model of line current characteristics under unbalanced line voltage condition for various modes of operation. The results provide a basic guideline for optimal design of a three-phase diode rectifier with capacitive filter that is most commonly used for interfacing various power conversion equipments to power lines.
