The fabrication of Micro-Perforated Panels (MPPs) still constitutes a challenge to the acoustic materials industry because it usually requires expensive manufacturing techniques obtain holes submillimetre size. In this context, rise additive or 3D printing (3DP) technologies over last years has paved way for design and development new at microscopic scale. Among these, Digital Light Processing (DLP) technology emerges as an excellent option due its advantages in terms speed higher accuracy...
This article proposes a new strategy for integrating type of distributed generation (DG) into shipboard microgrid (MG). The study focuses on the application shaft generator (SG) system, which is first inverter-based DG installed in most large-sized ships. squirrel-cage induction commonly used SG system examined control stability, and an adaptive observer proposed to estimate stator resistance SG. includes virtual impedance inner loop grid-forming converter smooth integration MG, adopting...
Radial multichannel pseudospark switches for extremely high-charge transfer were designed, constructed, and tested. The characteristics of the measured different electrode geometries materials in hydrogen helium as function gas pressure. operated a 100 kJ capacitor bank conducted an effective charge up to 31 C. A sealed-off radial switch was also manufactured tested with 300 bank. successfully 105 kA peak current 78 C transfer. experimental results demonstrated that SiC electrodes triggered...
Cylindrical type air core pulse transformers capable of passing high voltage and energy waveforms with efficiency low distortion require a much more delicate design balance physical dimensions electrical parameters than iron or ferrite units. The structure an transformer is relatively simple, but considerable attention needed to prevent breakdown between windings. Since the thickness windings in spiral on order sub-millimeter, field enhancement at edge very high. It is, therefore, important...
The dislocations and twins in superconducting Bi-Ca-Sr-Cu-O samples are examined by scanning electron microscopy transmission microscopy. results indicate that these defects inherent to the materials. grains large size (1--10 \ensuremath{\mu}m), but they frequently divided into subgrains low-angle grain boundaries. Furthermore, evidence is found for discommensurate walls associated with incommensuration along b axis.
Multigap pseudospark devices can be used to produce intense pulsed electron beams. Pseudospark discharge is generally initiated by self-breakdown or an external trigger in which DC high voltage used. In this work, we investigated a pulse charge mode generate enhanced beam from 10-gap device. the mode, applied Using could obtain beams wider ranges of and pressure than self-discharge mode. We achived maximum efficiency at 3×10-1 mbar Ar gas. Under best condition, also observed well-focused...
Total 144 quadrupole magnets are installed in the PLS. The connected series with groups of two or 24. Each group is powered by a high-precision constant-current DC power supply. For purpose beam based alignment position monitors PLS, it necessary to adjust current each independently. To achieve this, high shunt regulator designed. It can maximum 50 A magnet current. programmable and amplitude be varied linearly 12-bit resolution. Power transistors used regulator. operation linear region....
The 2-GeV electron linac at Pohang accelerator laboratory (PAL) has been operated continuously as a full energy injector for the Light Source (PLS) since Dec. 1994. There have continuous efforts to improve klystron-modulator (K&M) system make it more stable and reliable. To self-diagnostic, operation, monitoring, remote communication, we developed new modulator controller based on an industrial PC platform. mainly consisted of interlock signal conditioning module, fast pulse...
A high power blue-green laser has been pumped with an array of multiple-stage hypocycloidal-pinch plasmas. The maximum untuned obtained LD-490 dye exceeded 230 kW a pulse width 1.0 μs (FWHM). characteristics the new pumping source and optical coupling configuration indicate that system can be developed for repetitive average operation.
