본 논문에서는 3차원 형태의 결함을 가진 지하매설 가스관에서 누설자속(magnetic flux leakage, MFL) 탐상법을 사용한 결함 검출에 관하여 연구하였다. 영구자석과 요크로 구성된 자기 시스템을 유한요소법을 사용하여 해석하고 동작점을 설정하였다. 가스관이 충분히 포화되지 않은 경우에는 측정이 곤란하며, 과대포화된 경우에는 결함에 의한 누설자속의 변화량이 적어서 측정이 곤란하므로 적정한 값을 설정하여야 하므로 자기 시스템의 동작점은 결합이 있을 때 누설자속 증가율이 최대가 되도록 설정하여야 한다. 본 논문에서는 3차원 비선형 유한요소법을 사용하여, 가스관에 결함이 있는 경우 결함의 크기, 깊이에 따른 결함신호를 예측하여 그 결과 가스관 포화상태의 적절여부, 홀 센서 range 및 resolution의 적정도 등을 연구하였다. 또한 홀 센서의 민감도 향상을 위하여 back-yoke를 사용하여 측정신호를 향상시키는 방법을 제안하였다.

Instantaneous following PWM control technique is pulsed nonlinear dynamic control method. This new control technique using analog integrator is proposed to control the duty ratio D of Cuk converter. In this control method, the duty ratio of a switch is exactly equal to or proportional to the control reference in the steady state or in a transient.

Experiments with Cuk converter have demonstrated the robustness of the control method and verified theoretical prediction. The control method is very general and applicable to all type PWM.

A sensorless control strategy for permanent magnet synchronous motors is presented in this paper. A speed control scheme based on the measurement and observation of stator current, voltage. and flux vector is proposed. Two phase voltages and two stator currents are measured and processed in discrete form in DSP. The rotor position and speed are estimated through the stator flux and its derivative estimation. Flux and its derivative are calculated in the stationary reference frame and used to estimate the speed and position. The rotor position angle is then used in a microcontroller to produce the appropriate stator current command signals for the hysteresis current controller of the inverter. The closed-loop speed control has been shown to be effective from standstill to rated speed. Moreover, a flux drift problem caused by the integration can be eliminated so that a stable sensorless starting and running operation can be achieved. Computer simulation and experimental results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

For the satisfying performance of a oil lubricator, design of a oil controller for the system which meets the required specifications and its supporting hardware that keep their functioning is important. Among the hardware of a control system, oil system are most vulnerable to malfunction. Thus it is necessary to keep track of accurate and reliable oil readings for good fusion oil lubricator performance. In case of oil lubricator, data loss, ssr trigger error faults, they are detected by examining the data system output values and the major values of the system, and then the faults are recognized by the analysis of symptoms of faults. If necessary electronic-sensor values are synthesized according to the types of faults, and then they are used for the controller instead of the raw data.

In a motor driving, the current rate is directly related to the rate of a switching device and in cost reduction, the parallel switching operation is the alternatives because it has the smaller current rate through current division. There are many investigations for the parallel switching operations to equaling the current division. However it remains many problems for practical usage. The reason is that the switching characteristics are mainly relied on the different saturation voltage of each device etc. and these factors are not altered by circuit designer. In order to compensate this problem, a proper resistance is experimently inserted to the switching device. But this method can not be the optimal solution. Therefore this paper proposes a new parallel operation which uses a parallel phase winding to remove the traditional effect of switching device such as saturation voltage according to the division of current. Also the reliable and stable driving is improved through experiments and the detailed principles.

If the ambient temperature rises for AC PDP, some of the discharge cells are turned off because of the misfiring during address period. Particularly, the misfiring of the 'last scan line is more serious than that of the first. In order to compensate the misfiring in such that case, different addressing voltage is applied at each cell such as progressively increasing pulse voltage instead of constant one. As a result, the addressing time and discharge charge of the last scan line have become similar to those of the first scan line and the phenomenon of misfiring has disappeared.

This paper deals with the relationships between MgO manufacturing condition and misfiring at low temperature. The characteristics of MgO are affected by substrate temperature and MgO deposition current. In this study. the. substrate temperature was varied from $100^{\circ}C$ to $200^{\circ}C$. And the MgO deposition current was varied from 5mA to 20mA. As a result. the misfiring at low temperature was decreased in the panels with substrate temperature $200^{\circ}C$ and MgO deposition current 5mA. These results may be explained that the higher substrate temperature and lower MgO deposition current makes the denser film formation.

The luminance and discharge characteristics of ac PDP are significantly affected by $H_2O$ or a small amount of residual gas in ac PDP.

The sample exhausted at high temperature showed better discharge characteristics than those exhausted in $25^{\circ}C$. As a result, the high temperature exhaust causes lower discharge voltage and shorter aging time.
