A 1/spl phi/3W grid-connection PV power inverter with partial active power filter Tập 3 - Trang 1512-1517 vol.3
T.-F. Wu, C.-L. Shen, C.-H. Chang, J.-Y. Chiu
This paper presents a single-phase three-wire (1/spl phi/3W) grid-connection
photovoltaic (PV) power inverter with a feature of a partial active power filter
(PAPF), which can not only deal with PV power but can filter current harmonics
and improve power factor. Once the processed power exceeds the switch ratings,
the inverter can reduce its output reactive power and harmonic power, while
still ca... hiện toàn bộ

Problems of paralleling windings for planar transformers and solutions Tập 2 - Trang 597-601 vol.2
Yuequan Hu, Junfeng Guan, Xinmin Bai, Wei Chen
In today's power converters, paralleling windings in planar transformers is
common, especially for low voltage and high current applications. Although this
practice is usually believed to be an effective way to increase the current
handling capacity of the windings, the effect might not be so significant due to
the unequal current distribution within parallel layers if the layers are not
properly ... hiện toàn bộ

Power integrated circuit drives based on HV NMOS Tập 4 - Trang 1737-1740 vol.4
S. Finco, P. Tavares, A.C. Fiore De Mattos, M.I. Castro Simas
This paper presents high voltage (HV) NMOS based level shifters, bootstraps and
charge pumps in direct and cascaded topologies, which are highly useful to
implement either power integrated circuits (PICs) high-side transistor floating
drives or compact inductorless DC-DC power supplies. Monolithic solutions
resorting to a unique HV NMOS switching cell are very important when standard

Industrial implementation of a controlled sensorless synchronous drive with hard start conditions Tập 3 - Trang 1167-1171 vol.3
E.V. Akhmadeev, D.V. Beliaev, A.M. Weinger
The subject of this paper is a synchronous drive of grinding ball mills 4 MW,
150 rpm, 6 kV, 50 Hz on the base of PWM CSI. The system is installed at the
concentrating plant of Norilsknickel in Russia. Specific to this drive is large
stalling torque-up to 125% of rated torque. This is a sensorless drive. Another
specific feature is the necessity of synchronization with power system and

Single-switch zero-voltage-switching high power factor electronic ballast Tập 2 - Trang 773-778 vol.2
Weihong Qiu, Z. Moussaoui, Wenkai Wu, I. Batarseh
This paper introduces two modified Class E circuits to achieve low crest factor
of lamp current. By integrating flyback topology with Class E converter, the
modified circuits can achieve improved lamp current crest factor, and still
maintain high power factor and zero-voltage-switching features in conventional
Class E converter. Simulation and experimental results are presented to verify
the theor... hiện toàn bộ

A disk-type bearingless motor for use as satellite momentum-reaction wheel Tập 4 - Trang 1971-1975 vol.4
J. Zhou, K.J. Tseng
This paper describes the development of disk-type bearingless motor for
application as a satellite momentum/reaction wheel. It does not rely on
mechanical bearings, so does not require lubrication and can be expected to have
longer maintenance-free lifespan that is important in space applications. The
proposed motor has a shaft-less disk-type rotor sandwiched between two disk-type
stators and has ... hiện toàn bộ

Utility-connected power converter for maximizing power transfer from a photovoltaic source while drawing ripple-free current Tập 3 - Trang 1518-1522 vol.3
T. Brekken, N. Bhiwapurkar, M. Rathi, N. Mohan, C. Henze, L.R. Moumneh
This paper presents a power converter for coupling photovoltaic arrays to the
utility grid. The converter draws a programmable, ripple-free DC current from
the photovoltaic array and injects power into the grid at unity power factor.
The programmable input current feature makes this converter ideal for use with
maximum power point tracking technology. The proposed converter has an
additional uniqu... hiện toàn bộ
