Double-ring high-frequency common-mode switching oscillation current sensor for inverter-fed machine winding insulation monitoring

Insulation failure significantly contributes to the unpredictable shutdown of power equipment.Compared to the partial discharge and high-frequency(HF)injection methods,the HF common-mode(CM)leakage current method offers a non-intrusive and highly sensitive alternative.However,the detection of HF CM currents is susceptible to interference from differential-mode(DM)currents,which exhibit high-amplitude and multifrequency components during normal operation.To address this challenge,this paper proposes a double-ring current sensor based on the principle of magnetic shielding for inverter-fed machine winding insulation monitoring.The inner ring harnesses the magnetic aggregation effect to isolate the DM current magnetic field,whereas the outer ring serves as the magnetic core of the Rogowski current sensor,enabling HF CM current monitoring.First,the magnetic field distributions of the CM and DM currents were analyzed.Then,a correlation between the sensor parameters and signal-to-noise ratio of the target HF CM current was established.Finally,an experimental study was conducted on a 3-kW PMSM for verification.The results indicate that the proposed double-ring HF CM sensor can effectively mitigate DM current interference.Compared to a single-ring sensor,a reduction of approximately 40%in the DM component was achieved,which significantly enhanced the precision of online insulation monitoring.

Flow Field Simulation on Double-Ring Radial Flow Reactor

Compared with the traditional radial flow reactors(RFRs), the double-ring RFRs possess advantages including lower pressure drop, shorter flow path and greater flow area. According to the Ergun's equation and the continuity equation, a two-dimensional hydrodynamic model was established to describe the hydrodynamic behavior in the double-ring RFRs. The successive over-relaxation(SOR) method was applied to solve the two-dimensional hydrodynamic model. The flow assignment parameters(T_i) of mass flow in the inner channel to the outer catalyst bed and the inner catalyst bed were optimized by the Powell method. Simulations showed the trend of change in gas distribution uniformity along the axial direction and the weight hourly space velocity(WHSV) with the variation of reactor size. The model can be used to analyze the reasonability of dehydrogenation reactor design, and it can also provide quantitative reference for the design of new double-ring RFRs.

Double-Ring Infiltrometer for <i>In-Situ</i>Permeability Determination of Dam Material

Three types of natural soils are studied in this paper: 1) a postglacial silt, 2) a glacial till, and 3) a postglacial sand. The former two are soils from embankment dam sites in Sweden, and the latter is a soil from a natural deposit situated in the Swedish east coastal region. In situ Double-ring infiltrometer (DRI) tests are compared with laboratory constant-head permeability determinations. This study shows that the DRI tests conducted on sandy-silty soils are within sufficient range to the laboratory results, to suggest that in situ near-saturated infiltration capacity may be used as a field estimate of hydraulic conductivity (permeability) for this range of soils. In situ infiltrometer testing may be the better alternative when there is difficulty in achieving representative field conditions in a laboratory setting, e.g., for widely graded soils such as glacial tills.

Three-dimensional multiple optical cages formed by focusing double-ring shaped radially and azimuthally polarized beams

We propose and simulate a method for generating a three-dimensional （3D） optical cage in the vicinity of focus by focusing a double-ring shaped radially and azimuthally polarized beam. Our study shows that the combination of an inner ring with an azimuthally polarized field and an outer ring with a radially polarized field and a phase factor can produce an optical cage with a dark region enclosed by higher intensity. The shape of the cage can be tailored by appropriately adjusting the parameters of double-mode beams. Furthermore, multiple 3D optical cages can be realized by applying the shift theorem of the Fourier transform and macro-pixel sampling algorithm to a double-ring shaped radially and azimuthally polarized beam.

Theoretical and experimental study on white light interferometric sensing network with double-ring topology

A white-light interferometric fiber-optic sensing network based on the double-ring topology is demonstrated,which can be applied to the measurements of quasi-distributed strain and temperature in a smart structure.In order to increase the multiplexing capacity,decrease the measurement cost of each sensor,and improve the ability of reliability of the sensor network,a double-port interrogating technology was used.The double-ring fiber optical sensing network based on the space division multiplexing(SDM)is further developed.The low coherent multiplexing principle in the double-ring network structure is analyzed.Based on the optical path matching condition of SDM,the intensity characteristic of the interference signal in the sensor is deduced.The characteristics of the double-ring sensing network connecting 9 sensors and its property of robust resisting destruction are verified by experiments,and the results are analyzed and discussed.
