To meet this challenge, a new kind of hydraulic transformer, variable hydraulic transformer (VHT), is proposed in this work. This paper focuses on the power characteristics of the newly proposed VHT, including instanta neous power, average power, power pulsation, and efficiency. In the analyses, the concepts of efficiency, input power, output power, starting angle, and ceasing angle are defined or redefined. To investigate the power characteristics, their models are derived by considering the governing fac tors such as the control angle of the swash plate and the structure of the port plate. This work high lights that the load flow can be adjusted by adjusting the control angle of the swash plate, and the power characteristics at the Bport produce a remarkable change. In addition, the VHT has a starting angle and a ceasing angle, and these two angles can be adjusted by the influencing factors. The results reveal that the power pulsation and the jump points of the instantaneous power are the primary causes of a less smooth work. Then, it is shown that the control angle of the port plate, the control angle of the swash plate, and the pressures at the ports are the three key elements for a stable operation. The results also reveal that the adjustment of the influencing factors can improve the efficiency.展开更多

When the flux-weakening current is lower than-ψf/Ld during the high speed operation, the flux-weakening control loop will transform to a positive feedback mode, which means the reduction of flux-weakening current will lead to the acceleration of the voltage saturation, thus the whole system will be unstable. In order to solve this issue, this paper proposes a novel flux-weakening method for electrolytic capacitorless motor drives to maintain a negative feedback characteristic of the control loop during high speed operation. Based on the analysis of the instability mechanism in flux-weakening region, a quadrature voltage constrain mechanism is constructed to stabilize the system.Meanwhile, the parameters of the controller are theoretically designed for easier industrial application. The proposed algorithm is implemented on a 1.5 kW electrolytic capacitorless PMSM drive to verify the effectiveness of the flux-weakening performance.展开更多

For the time being, stable pulsed RFL utilizing a passive method has not been reported. Here, we propose and experimentally realize the passive spatiotemporal gain-modulation-induced stable pulsing operation of counterpumped RFL. Thanks to the good temporal stability of an employed pumping amplified spontaneous emission source and the superiority of this pulse generation scheme, a stable and regular pulse train can be obtained.Furthermore, the pump hysteresis and bistability phenomena with the generation of high-order Stokes light is presented, and the dynamics of pulsing operation is discussed after the theoretical investigation of the counterpumped RFL. This work extends our comprehension of temporal property of RFL and paves an effective novel avenue for the exploration of pulsed RFL with structural simplicity, low cost, and stable output.展开更多

The EPS is fabricated through extending one sampling period by 50% in the center of a sampled Bragg grating. The key EPS and DBR pattern are fabricated by conventional holographic exposure combined with the optical photolithography technology, which leads to improved flexibility, repeatability, and cost-effectiveness. Stable single-mode emission can be obtained by changing the injection current or heat sink temperature even under the condition of large driving pulse width.展开更多

Surge as one of the sources of this limitation has been studied for many years. In this research, an isolated blade row of compressor rotor is numerically modeled and solved. In order to improve operational limit and postpone the surge occurrence, a stepped blade of RAF6E with higher stall angle of attack is used to investigate the near stall flow behavior. In this study, several location of step on blades are tried and the results are compared with the case with no step on blades. It is shown that, as the step moves toward the leading edge of blades, the effect of delay on surge is reduced and even efficiency is also decreased significantly. By moving the step towards the trailing edge, surge is delayed due to the reattachment of flow after the step. Efficiency is also decreased but not in the order of the previous case.展开更多
