Comparative Analysis of Power Losses for Three-Level T-Type and NPC - Payam Alemi, and Dong-Choon Lee - Korean Institute of Power Electronics

 

 



 

Abstract - In this paper, an analysis of power losses for the three-level T-type and neutral-point clamped (NPC) PWM inverters is presented, in which the conduction and switching losses of semiconductor devices of the inverters are taken into account. In the inverter operation, the conduction loss depends on the modulation index (MI) and power factor (PF), whereas the switching loss depends on the switching frequency. Power losses for the T-type and NPC inverters are analyzed and calculated at the different operating points of MI, PF and the switching frequency, in which the four different models of semiconductor devices are adopted. In the case of lower MI, the NPC-type is more efficient than the T-type, and vice versa. The validity of the power loss analysis has been verified by the simulation results.

Analysis of Leakage Inductance for Toroidal Type Flyback Transformer Park, Chang-Soo ; Kang, Byeong-Geuk ; Shin, Kyoung-Gu ; Chung, Se-Kyo Dept. of Control and Instrumentation Eng., Gyeongsang

 

Abstract - This paper presents an analysis of a leakage inductance for a toroidal type flyback transformer. The equation to calculate the leakage inductance is derived using the MMF diagram of the transformer. The analysis for the different types of the cores and winding structures is also provided using the FEM simulation. The winding structures minimizing the leakage inductance are finally discussed from the simulation and experimental results.

Method to Prevent the Malfunction Caused by the Transformer Magnetizing Inrush Current using IEC 61850-based IEDs and Dynamic Performance Test using RTDS Test-bed - Kang, Hae-Gweon

Abstract – The digital substations are being built based on the IEC 61850 network. The cooperation and protection of power system are becoming more intelligent and reliable in the environment of digital substation. This paper proposes a novel method to prevent the malfunction caused by the Transformer Magnetizing Inrush Current(TMIC) using the IEC 61850 based data sharing between the IEDs. To protect a main transformer, the current differential protection(87T) and over-current protection(50/51) are used generally.

BIRNS Emergency Light Fixture-LED Seismic Testing

His video shows BIRNS Emergency Light Fixture-LEDs (ELF-LEDs) during IEEE-344 seismic qualification testing at the National Technical Systems facility. This demanding test sequence uses a tri-axial acceleration table delivering the equivalent of a seismic event at 10Gs of force in the x, y and z axes.

BIRNS ELF-LEDs are advanced, seismically qualified nuclear grade lighting systems that provide 24-40 hours of standby illumination in the event of loss of AC power, which is 3 to 5 times longer than required by the NRC. These rugged, CE marked, RoHS compliant systems have a lamp life of 50,000 hours, and an 11 W power draw.
