The effect of Si content in welding wires on spattering characteristics and droplet transfer phenomena was studied. In MAG welding using 80% Ar-20% $CO_2$ shielding gas, spattering characteristics and droplet transfer phenomena were varied with Si content of wire. With increasing Si content, the spattering ratio and the ratio of large size spatter $(d\geq1.0mm)$ were increased. The increase of Si content in molten metal made surface tension increase due to reduction of oxygen content, which resulted from deoxidizing action of silicon. The increase of surface tension resulted in unstable transfer phenomena and arc instability in both short circuit and spray region. With changing Si content of wire, spattering characteristics and droplet transfer phenomena was directly influenced by the variation of surface tension, compared with the effect of arc stability.

Electric-field coupled power transfer (ECPT) systems employ a high frequency electric field as an energy medium to transfer power wirelessly. Existing ECPT systems have made great progress in terms of increasing the transfer distance. However, the topologies of these systems are complex, and the transfer characteristics are very sensitive to variations in the circuit parameters. This paper proposes an ECPT system with a double-sided LC network, which employs a parallel LC network on the primary side and a series LC network on the secondary side. With the same transfer distance and output power, the proposed system is simpler and less sensitive than existing systems. The expression of the optimal driving voltage for the coupling structure and the characteristics of the LC networks are also analyzed, including the transfer efficiency, parameter sensitivity and total harmonic distortion. Then, a design method for the system parameters is provided according to these characteristics. Simulations and experiments have been carried out to verify the system properties and the design method.

The gas metal arc welding(GMAW) is regarded as one of the best candidate for welding automation in industrial joining application. It is important to monitor the weld quality for the high performance of weld automation. The measured analog signal is frequency analyzed by digital signal process method. In order to observe the welding phenomena and control welding condition, arc light, voltage, and current are measured at the same time. They are analyzed and compared with arc sound. for these experiments, a power source of constant voltage characteristics was used in the pure metal transfer mode.

A strong need to improve the quality of electric power is increased because of increasing use of the sensitive and small-sized electronic devices. The surges on the low-voltage ac power lines are induced by nearby lightning return strokes, and the facilities for HA, OA, FA, ME as well as computer are easily damaged by high-voltage transients. The behaviors of lightning surge characteristics transferred from the primary winding to the secondary winding in distribution transformers using a Marx generator were experimentally investigated. The transfer characteristics of lightning surge associated with a custom service ground of secondary side were also examined.

Voltage Sags, different from electric outages, are important to industrial reliability because modern process controls are often sensitive to voltage sag, the designer and operator should recognize sag characteristics of the electric system not only to protect malfunction of equipment but also to make best choices between reliability and equipment cost. The voltage sags and compensation countermeasures of large md industrial distribution systems have been simulated using EMTDC. The causes of voltage sags occurred in the system are discussed in detail and several countermeasures including the transfer of large induction motor from normal power source to backup source are recommended in order to enhance the ride-through characteristics of equipments.

A soft switched matrix converter is proposed by adopting the zero voltage switching technique being used in some resonant pole inverters. High operating frequency with safe and efficient switching improves dynamic and spectral performances and simplifies protection logics and snubber networks. Further, it can be implemented using simple analog circuits, having similar transfer characteristics to those of the modern pulse width modulated matrix converters such as, maximum voltage transfer ratio and unity input displacement factor. Analyses, design and simulation results are presented to verify the operating principle.

A two-dimensional TCAD MEDICI simulator was used to examine the voltage transfer characteristics, on-off switching properties and latch-up of a CMOS inverter as a function of the n-channel length and doping levels. The channel in a LDMOSFET encloses a junction-type source and is believed to be an important parameter for determining the circuit operation of a CMOS inverter. The digital logic levels of the output and input voltages were analyzed from the transfer curves and circuit operation. The high and low logic levels of the input voltage showed a strong dependency on the channel length, while the lateral substrate resistance from a latch-up path in the CMOS inverter was comparable to that of a typical CMOS inverter with a guard ring.

In single-phase magnetically coupled resonant (MCR) wireless power transfer (WPT) systems, the transfer characteristics, including the output power and transfer efficiency, are significantly influenced by the spatial scales of its coils. As a potential alternative, a three-phase MCR WPT system with cylinder-shaped coils that are excited in a voltage-fed manner has been proposed to satisfy the requirements of compact space. This system adopts a phase-shifted angle control scheme to generate a rotating magnetic field and to realize omnidirectional WPT that is immune to spatial scales. The magnetic field model and equivalent circuit models are built to holistically analyze the system characteristics under different angular misalignments. Research results show that the transfer characteristics can be improved by modulating the phase-shifted angle in each phase. Experiments have also been carried out to evaluate the accuracy of the theoretical analysis and to confirm the validity of the system modeling method.

In recent years, development of energy conversion systems using hydrogen as an energy source has been accelerated globally. Even though hydrogen is an environment-friendly energy source, safety and effectiveness issues in storage, transportation, and usage of hydrogen should be clearly resolved in every application. Therefore, sensors for detecting hydrogen leakage, especially for fuel cell electric vehicles, should be designed to have much higher resolution and accuracy in comparison with conventional gas sensors. In this study, we conducted to determine the design parameters for the semiconductor hydrogen sensor with optimized sensing conditions under the thermal distribution characteristic and thermal transfer characteristic. The heat generation study on power supply voltage was studied for correlation analysis of thermal energy according to the power supply voltage variation from 1.0 voltage to 10.0 voltage every 0.5 voltage. And we studied for the temperature coefficient of resistance with hydrogen sensor.
