The auxiliary resonant commutated pole (ARCP), a new power converter topology that fully achieves soft switching without increasing primary device voltage or current ratings, is discussed. The ARCP converter is capable of true pulse-width modulation (PWM) control of each phase. The power circuit relies on the addition of an auxiliary triggered resonant commutation circuit or snubber to commutate the inductive load current from a main diode to an active device, allowing a zero voltage turn-off of the main devices. The auxiliary devices operate in a zero current soft switching mode, thereby requiring minimal current turn-off capability. The operation and control of the ARCP converter are discussed. Its performance is analyzed, and a simulation is presented. It is shown that the ARCP converter is capable of operation at elevated switching frequencies (10-30 kHz), high power levels (200-1000 kW), and high conversion efficiencies. the auxiliary devices will typically account for a 20% increase in the total silicon area of a three-phase power converter.<>

Optoelectrostatic micromanipulation utilizing the electrostatic force in combination with the optical pressure of a focused laser beam has been used for handling of plant protoplasts and for microinjection of fine latex particles into plant protoplasts. Cabbage or carrot protoplasts were used. Cabbage protoplasts could be moved by the optical pressure at 10 to 80 mu m/s. Using a parallel electrode system, the protoplasts were connected to form a pearl chain. An argon ion laser was then focused on one protoplast at the tip of a pearl chain. All the protoplasts were trapped at the electrode by the dielectrophoretic force. and only the protoplast irradiated by the laser could be separated selectively. Microinjection of 0.2-0.4 mu m latex particles to the cabbages or carrot protoplasts was made using optoelectrostatic micromanipulation. The latex particles were transported to the surface of the protoplasts inside a parallel-plate electrode system. Then a pulsed high voltage was applied several times to inject one latex particle attached on the surface of the protoplast. The injected latex particle could be manipulated inside the protoplast by the optical pressure. The experimental apparatus and the results are reported.<>

A power electronic VAr generator that provides reactive power compensation for symmetrical and nonsymmetrical nonlinear consumers is described. The control system provides inertial operation of the compensating system. By a stepwise change of the load current, some value of an active power is delivered by the VAr generator to the line during a few AC voltage periods. It is shown that this power electronic system can be used as an active filter for unwanted current harmonics reduction.<>

An induction electrohydrodynamic (EHD) pump in a horizontal configuration was built. Different dielectric fluids were compared to establish which produced the best pumping performance. Experimental results show that pumping performance depends on fluid properties, primarily fluid viscosity and electrical conductivity. Pumping velocities as high as 35 cm/s with doped, 100 p.p.m., n-hexane were achieved. This improvement makes induction EHD pumping attractive for certain industrial applications.<>

The magnetic fields produced by the stator windings and induced via the rotor of a composite, cascade induction machine are investigated with simplified operating assumptions. The rotor used is the single-layer, modified cage developed by A. R. W. Broadway and L. Burbridge (see Proc. IEE, vol.117, p.1277-90, 1970). The input and control circuits share the same stator coils. The operation of the machine is dependent upon spatial harmonics of the stator and rotor conductor structures; therefore, the spatial harmonic contents of the excitation and induced fields are determined. A design formula for minimizing low-order, undesirable harmonics produced by the stator coils is presented. The form of the field harmonics and their direction of travel with respect to the rotor are established. Based upon the physical interactions of the rotor fields, a novel steady-state equivalent circuit with two excitation sources is established, along with the form of the requisite coupling factors. Contributions of the harmonic fields to the instantaneous and average torques are considered.<>

A finite-element-based three-dimensional field solution for the magnetically saturable chokes that are used in many industrial electronics systems is presented. The inductances computed based on the finite-element field solution are compared with the estimated nonlinear inductances from actual measurements. The results show the adequacy of the three-dimensional finite-elements simulation. The results of the field solution are used to study the factors that influence the nonlinear characteristics of the chokes, such as the air-gap geometry, the equivalent winding turns and the property of material anisotropy.<>

A vector control system for a slip-frequency controlled induction motor is introduced. The system has a simple structure, fair performance, and convenient operation. It is realized by two single-chip microprocessors and fed from a sinusoidal PWM-GTR inverter. The whole system is combined from two subsystems, both 8031 single-chip microprocessors. The communication between them is coordinated by the full-duplex serial port within the chip in an ask-and-answer communication manner. The adopted error-correcting means has improved the operational reliability of the system. Experimental results on a 3 kW induction motor are given.<>
