A 24 pulse current source inverter for reducing the harmonics in output currents is presented in this paper. The proposed system operates a 24 pulse inverter by adding only tap changing circuit which consists of several taps and static switching elements to the 12 pulse inverter, which is the double connected 3 phase 6 pulse inverter with an auto transfomer. Also to optimize the effectiveness of the harmonic reduction, the optimum turn ratio and tap changing control angle of auto transfomer are decided by digital simulation and its validity is verified with experiment. And under the optimum condition, it is clarified that the harmonics components involved in the output current of the proposed inverter are nearly equal to those of the conventional 24 pulse inverter.

Electromagnetic forces (Attractive and repulsive force), interacting between current leads show different tendency according to the arrangement of current leads on the top flange of the cryostat and the distance of each lead. Especially in case of high-current electric power devices or high-field magnets, optimal arrangement of current leads becomes one of the safety issues to be considered for minimizing the electromagnetic for ce acting on them. In this paper, we suggest an optimal arrangement method with three pairs of current leads for a 24kV class 650A superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) system which has a probability of unpredicted fault currents(i.e, 20kA).

In this paper, we have proposed a new dimmable magnetic ballast for HID(High Intensity Discharge) lamps consisted of AC switches to variate inductance value by using Silicon Controlled Rectifiers and the isolated zero current detector on inductor. Conventional dimming ballast has used relays or Solid State Relays in AC switches. However, a relay is difficult to zero current switching, because it has long operating time(10[ms]), and price competitiveness of SSR is very low. The proposed AC switches are suitable to switch at zero inductor current and it is accurately detected by using a opto-coupler. SCR is cheaper than SSR, and it is suitable to switch at zero inductor current because SCR is automatically turned off under holding current at no gate signal. Operating principles, simulation results and experimental results of the proposed ballast are described.

The current sensor is used in industrial devices and power utilities. Core materials of these current sensors are divided into mainly two groups as silicon steel and fermalloy. Silicon steel has a wide saturation bandwidth but low sensitivity during low-current, whereas permalloy has a short saturation bandwidth but high sensitivity during low-current. In this paper, laminated silicon steel and permalloy by equal ratio is proposed to improve the linearity and saturation of current sensor. It is proved that the proposed core material has larger bandwidth than fermalloy as well as higher sensitivity than silicon steel. When comparing simulation results by FLUX 3D, the proposed method has also better performance than the previous core materials.

To stabilize the electric characteristic of Silicon Thin Film Transistor, reducing the current leakage is most important issue. To reduce the current leakage, many ideas were suggested. But the increase of mask layer also increased the cost. On this research Bird's Beak process was use to present element. Using Silvaco simulator, it was proven that it was able to reduce current leakage without mask layer. As a result, it was possible to suggest the structure that can reduce the current leakage to 1.39nA without having mask layer increase. Also, I was able to lead the result that electric characteristic (on/off current ratio) was improved compare from conventional structure.

The superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) with a peak current limiting function according to the initial fault current with the different amplitudes was suggested. The proposed SFCL, which consists of two limiting components, causes only the first superconducting element among two limiting components to be quenched in case that the initial fault current with the lower peak amplitude happens. On the other hand, the initial fault current with the higher peak amplitude makes both the superconducting elements of two limiting components to be quenched, which contributes to the peak current limiting function of the SFCL. To confirm the fault current limiting operation of the proposed SFCL, the short-circuit tests of the SFCL according to the fault angle were carried out and its effective fault current limiting operations could be discussed.

The effect of injector driving current pattern on fuel injection rate of solenoid diesel common rail injector was studied by computer simulation. The time resolved fuel injection rate and injected quantity per stroke of a common rail injector driven with the five current patterns were computer simulated. The fuel injection rate and injected quantity per stroke according to the rail pressure and fuel injection period were also computer simulated. When the common rail injector was driven with the five driving current patterns of peak & hold, there was no difference in the fuel injection rate in the peak section regardless of all the current patterns of the five cases. On the other hand, the magnitude of the hold current value influenced the injection rate and injected quantity per stroke. That is, in the current pattern of three cases where the hold current value is equal to or more than a constant value of the peak current value, the fuel injection rates for the given common rail rail pressure and injection period are same one another. On the other hand, the current pattern of the two cases, in which the hold current value is smaller than a certain value, there is a large fluctuation in the fuel injection rate.

When the current of the superconducting element exceeds its critical current by the fault occurrence, the quench of the high-$T_C$ superconducting fault current limiter (HTSC) comprising the flux-lock type superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) occurs. Simultaneously, the magnetic flux in the iron core induces the voltage in each coil, which contributes to limit the fault current. In this paper, the fault current limiting characteristics of the flux-lock type SFCL as well as the load voltage sag suppressing characteristics according to the flux-lock type SFCL's winding direction were investigated. To confirm the fault current limiting and the voltage sag suppressing characteristics of the this SFCL, the short-circuit tests for the simulated power system with the flux-lock type SFCL were carried out. The flux-lock type SFCL designed with the additive polarity winding was shown to perform more effective fault current limiting and load voltage sag suppressing operations through the fast quench occurrence right after the fault occurs and the fast recovery operation after the fault removes than the flux-lock type SFCL designed with the subtractive polarity winding.
