The main contribution of this paper is to show a new AC/DC converter based on the rearrangement of the flyback converter. The proposed circuit only manages part of the energy and the rest is delivered directly from the source to the load. Therefore, with the new topology, the efficiency is increased, and the stress of the components is reduced. The rearrangement consist of the secondary of the flyback is placed in parallel with the load, and this arrangement is connected in series with the primary side and the rectified voltage source. The re-arranged flyback is only a reductive topology and with no magnetic isolation. It was studied as a power supply for LEDs. A low frequency averaged analysis (LFAA) was used to determine the behavior of the proposed circuit and an equivalent circuit much easier to analyze was obtained. To validate the theoretical analysis, a design methodology was developed for the re-arranged flyback converter. The designed circuit was implemented in a 10 W prototype. Experimental results showed that the converter has a THDi = 21.7% and a PF = 0.9686.

The accuracy of the location of acoustic emission (AE) sources in the concentrator zones (central holes 5 mm in diameter) located at a distance of 40 mm from the receiving transducers during tensile tests of steel, aluminum alloy and composite flat specimens with dimensions of 550x50x4 mm was evaluated. Calculated speed dependence of propagation of pulses on the level of their amplitude and the partial energy of the high-frequency components of the spectrum is studied. With the threshold method of signal registration, the error in the location of AE event sources arising in the near zone of the receiving transducers at a distance 𝛥L<0.1 m can significantly exceed 10% relative to the base size (B) of the location area, when B<0.5 m. Moreover, with a decrease in the distance 𝛥L<0.05 m, the level of possible error will increase, reaching 20-30% relative to the basic size of the antenna array, when recording pulses with an amplitude level um<60 dB and a fraction of the energy of high-frequency spectrum components not exceeding 10%.

In this paper, a current sharing method based on the circular chain control (3C) method is proposed for controlling parallel inverters of unequal ratings in uninterruptible power supply (UPS) applications. Due to its circular structure, 3C is one of the most convenient methods which can be used in UPS as well as microgrid systems. However, the conventional 3C control strategy is only applicable to inverters of equal power ratings. The proposed method not only retains the circular structure of the 3C method, but also provides adaptability for the parallel operation of inverters with different power ratings. Moreover, this method adds hot-swap capability to the parallel inverter. A two-loop control structure is used to control the inverters. For proper current sharing, currents of inverters are conveyed in a circular structure with appropriate gains through control links. Simulation and experimental results for linear and nonlinear loads verify the effectiveness of the proposed strategy.
