The self-field losses in a long multifilamentary Bi-2223/AgMgNi tape with varying transport current, voltage tap configurations, frequency and tape arrangements were investigated. Experimental results show that the measured losses are strongly dependent on voltage gap configurations but independent on tape arrangements. All voltage taps except the center tap are found to agree well with those predicted by Norris for an elliptical conductor. The self-field losses are purely hysteretic in nature in the range of applied frequencies for the transport currents below the critical current.

In this study, we have developed the automatic voltage regulator(AVR) with robust voltage controllability, high efficiency and low cost. In AVR, the output voltage is controlled by the Tap changing of the slidacs coil using DC motor. And AVR has the improved output voltage characteristics because of the modified configuration of a point of contact between the slidacs coil and the moving rod.

This paper presents new configuration of a.c. traction power supply system. The proposed system includes autotransformer with variable tab. The voltage drop in traction power supply system can be reduced due to tap change of autotransformer. In this paper, fault current and Impedance is investigated, when fault occurs in traction power supply system.

Campus microgrid is designed and built by considering not only power generation but also power consumption management as connected microgrid type because the main goal of the campus microgrid is to save power consumption costs. There are many functions to achieve the goal and they are mainly to use generation-based functions such as islanding operation for peak management and for emergency events. In power distribution operation, Conservation Voltage Reduction (CVR) is applied in order to reduce power consumption. The CVR is defined as a function for load consumption reduction by voltage reduction in order to reduce peak demands and energy consumption. However, application of CVR to microgrid is difficult because the microgrid cannot control a tap of transformer in a substation and the microgrid normally is not designed with phase modifying equipment like a step-voltage-regulator which can control voltage in power distribution system operation. In addition, an impact of the CVR is depended on load characteristics such as a normal load, a rated power, and synchronous motors. Therefore, this paper proposes an application of CVR using linear voltage control based AVR in campus microgrid with power consumption reduction considering characteristics of load and component in the microgrid. The proposed system can be applied to each buildings by a configuration of power distribution cables; and the application results and CVR factor are presented in this paper.

In this paper, a new planar transformer with a novel core configuration that can regulate the leakage inductance is proposed and described in detail. In order to design the slim size power system for flat panel TV, Two planar transformers applied to LLC resonant converter are connected in series at primary and in parallel by the center-tap winding at secondary. In this paper, a 300W low profile LLC resonant converter was built and tested to verify the proposed planar transformer.

In this study, the homogeneity of critical current, $I_c$, along the lengthwise direction in the coated conductor (CC) tape under uniaxial tension was investigated using a multiple voltage tap configuration. Initially, a gradual and homogeneous $I_c$ degradation occurred in all subsections of the tape up to a certain strain value. This was followed by an abrupt $I_c$ degradation in some subsections, which caused scattering in $I_c$ values along the length with increasing tension strain. The $I_c$ degradation behaviour was also explained through n-value as well as microstructure analyses. Subsections showed $I_c$ scattering corresponding to damaged areas of the CC tape revealed that transverse cracks were distributed throughout the gauge length. This homogeneous $I_c$ degradation behaviour under tension is similar with the case under torsion strain but different with the case under hard bending which were previously reported. This behaviour is also different with the case using Bi-2223 HTS tapes under tension strain.
