Abstract In this paper, to accurately compensate the arc suppression coil, the structure of the transformer is improved. Here, a fixed inductive element is connected in series with the short-circuit winding, which combines with the leakage inductance of the original transformer to form a new short circuit impedance. The improved transformer reduces the manufacturing cost and difficulty of the controllable inductor, reduces the requirements for the winding of the reactor, and makes the manufacturing easier.

This paper shows that successful switching of extremely high short-circuit currents I> 50 kA can be achieved by joint operation of a liquid-metal self-resetting current limiter and a circuit breaker connected in series. The type NFU-225 device from Mitsubishi was taken as an example. The time-current characteristic of joint operation of a liquid-metal self-resetting current-limiting device and a circuit breaker was compiled. However, further in the article physical processes occurring in a liquid-metal self-resetting current limiter with a complete transformation of fusible unit are considered. The result of work is modelling of operation of liquid-metal fuses when overcurrents are switched off based on the pilot studies obtained by the Japanese scientists. It is proposed to simulate the break process not at every time moment, but at specific time moments (reference points). At other time moments, current and voltage should be considered as approximately linearly changing characteristics. The work of current limiter can be represented by three stages: the pre-arc, the main arc and the final arc. If the current density is less than 1000 A/mm2, then the pre-arc operation stage of the current limiter includes the following sections for heating the fusible unit: primary heating to the melting temperature; melting and its transition to liquid state; secondary heating to evaporation temperature; evaporation of fusible unit.

Silicon wafers are crucial for determining the price of solar cell modules. To reduce the manufacturing cost of photovoltaic devices, the thicknesses of wafers are reduced. However, the conventional module manufacturing method using the tabbing process has a disadvantage in that the cell is damaged because of the high temperature and pressure of the soldering process, which is complicated, thus increasing the process cost. Consequently, when the wafer is thinned, the breakage rate increases during the module process, resulting in a lower yield; further, the module performance decreases owing to cracks and thermal stress. To solve this problem, a module manufacturing method is proposed in which cells and wires are bonded through the lamination process. This method minimizes the thermal damage and mechanical stress applied to solar cells during the tabbing process, thereby manufacturing high-power modules. When adopting this method, the front electrode should be customized because it requires busbarless solar cells different from the existing busbar solar cells. Accordingly, the front electrode was designed using various simulation programs such as Griddler 2.5 and MathCAD, and the effect of the diameter and number of wires in contact with the front finger line of the solar cell on the module characteristics was analyzed. Consequently, the efficiency of the module manufactured with 12 wires and a wire diameter of 0.36 mm exhibited the highest efficiency at 20.28%. This is because even if the optical loss increases with the diameter of the wire, the series resistance considerably decreases rather than the loss of the short-circuit current, thereby improving the fill factor. The characteristics of the wire-embedded ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) sheet module were confirmed to be better than those of the five busbar tabbing modules manufactured by the tabbing process; further, a high-power module that sufficiently compensated for the disadvantages of the tabbing module was manufactured.

A modified static CMOS inverter with two inputs and two outputs is proposed to reduce short-circuit current in order to increment delay and reduce power overhead where slow operation is required. The circuit is based on bidirectional delay element connected in series with the PMOS and NMOS switching transistors. It provides differences in the dynamic response so that the direct-path current in the next stage is reduced. The switching transistors are never ON at the same time. Characteristics of various delay element implementations are presented and verified by circuit simulations. Global optimization procedure is used to obtain the most power-efficient transistor sizing. The performance of the modified CMOS inverter chain is compared to standard implementation for various delays. The energy (charge) per delay is reduced up to 40%. The use of the proposed delay element is demonstrated by implementing a low-power delay line and a leading-edge detector cell.

Chloride absorption in the small intestine of the winter flounder, Pseudopleuronectes americanus, is reported to be sensitive to ambient pH. We studied this sensitivity in isolated stripped intestinal mucosa mounted in modified Ussing chambers. Unidirectional 36Cl fluxes (JClm----s, JCls----m) were measured under short-circuited conditions in bathing solutions containing various combinations of HCO3- (0-20 mM), partial pressure of CO2 (0-36 mmHg), and pH (6.77-7.85). We found that JClm----s, net 36Cl flux (JClnet), and short-circuit current (Isc) increased and JCls----m decreased predominately in response to increases in bathing solution pH. There was a linear relationship between pH and both JClnet (r = 0.92, P less than 0.01) and Isc (r = 0.96, P less than 0.005) between pH 6.77 and 7.74. The pH effect was completely reversible, did not require either CO2 or HCO3-, and was not affected by the presence of mucosal barium at 1 mM. Mucosal bumetanide (0.1 mM) completely inhibited the pH effect. These data suggest that the process by which Cl- is absorbed in the flounder intestine is sensitive to pH. The data do not indicate whether pH affects Na+-K+-2Cl- cotransport or a Cl- transport pathway in series with this process. The direction of Cl- absorption in response to pH contrasts with inverse relation of pH and Cl- absorption in mammalian small intestine.
