In this study, the necessary areas of concentration were systematically identified by describing their impact on three different classes of customer requirements. The first class consists of requirements attributed to the performance of individual batteries in a system; the second class involves the general categories of safety, reliability, and variability; and the third class represents issues related to the battery system. As a result, a framework is established that provides a discipline to assure that the product features that impact significantly on each class of customer requirements drive product and process design.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":169486,"journal":{"name":"10th International Telecommunications Energy Conference","volume":"69 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1988-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114143830","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The analysis is based on the discrete Fourier transform of sampled input current waveforms of various converters. The converter configurations considered include the AC-AC voltage controller, the controlled rectifier, and inverters. The use of the discrete Fourier transform in waveform analysis is associated with spectral leakage and aliasing. To minimize these effects, the use of proper windows to weight the sampled waveforms is examined. Sampled waveforms are windowed by three different windows, namely the Hamming, the Hanning, and the Blackman window. The results obtained in the study were experimentally verified.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":169486,"journal":{"name":"10th International Telecommunications Energy Conference","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1988-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114248088","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The rectifier uses a full-bridge converter topology with power MOSFET transistors and is current-mode controlled. The unit is convection-cooled and uses only isolated-case power modules which are directly mounted on the heat sink. The rectifier is field-upgradable from a basic unit equipped with essential alarms and plant controls to a surveillance-enhanced rectifier with elaborate diagnostics and commands for the purpose of remote monitoring and control. A well-designed heat sink along with a careful choice of components yields a typical overall efficiency of 90%. It is concluded that the current-mode control technique provides an excellent dynamic performance under fast load variations along with excellent line ripple rejection.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":169486,"journal":{"name":"10th International Telecommunications Energy Conference","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1988-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124006068","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

On the same basis, the need to recover batteries which are used in the standby mode more quickly than the four days previously possible for NiCd button cells, and 24 h required by NiCd sintered cells, can now be achieved by the inclusion of a timer to charge for 7 h at 0.2 C.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":169486,"journal":{"name":"10th International Telecommunications Energy Conference","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1988-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129074557","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
