Abstract

Provided is a refrigerant abnormality determination device (1) of a power conversion device that cools a switching element with a refrigerant and includes a temperature protection thermistor (6), wherein a pre-filter thermistor estimation temperature calculation unit (2) calculates a pre-filter thermistor estimation temperature on the basis of a thermistor temperature table (21) having a current command value or a current detection value of the power conversion device as a parameter. The pre-filter thermistor estimation temperature is input to the filter (3). An addition unit (5) calculates a thermistor estimation temperature by adding a refrigerant temperature value from the refrigerant temperature sensor (4) to the value output from the filter (3). An abnormality determination unit (8) determines that the refrigerant is abnormal when a determination time is equal to or smaller than a continuous time during which the difference between the inclination of a thermistor detection temperature from the thermistor (6) and the inclination of the thermistor estimation temperature from the addition unit (5) is equal to or greater than a threshold value.

Abstract

This reverse force mechanism is combined with a device having a normal force and applies a reverse force to the same point of action, thereby adjusting the total operating force. A cam curved surface 14 is formed on a driving node 1, which, upon receiving a normal-force operating force F11 applied thereto from a device having a normal force, becomes movable in an axial direction in which the normal-force operating force F11 has been applied. A driven node 2 has a roller 13 that comes into contact with the cam curved surface 14 to apply contact pressure to the cam curved surface 14. The cam curved surface 14 is formed such that a gradient angle θ14, which is an angle formed by the axial direction of the normal-force operating force F11 and a tangent line of the cam curved surface 14 and the roller 13, changes depending on the position of the driving node 1. In addition, the cam curved surface 14 is formed such that a total operating force resulting from combining a reverse force, which is generated by the contact pressure and which changes according to the gradient angle θ14, and the normal-force operating force F11 becomes substantially constant. The reverse force mechanism realizes simplicity and downsizing, and improves the performance of a device having a normal force.

Abstract

This cell multiplex inverter comprises: a plurality of cells cellu1 to cellw4 multiple-connected to the respective phases of an AC system AC in a star connection; and a gate command generation unit that generates gate commands for the switching elements of the plurality of cells. The cell multiplex inverter drives some of the plurality of cells as commercial frequency drive cells that perform one switching for one cycle of a commercial frequency or the output frequency and drives the remaining ones of the plurality of cells as high-frequency drive cells that drive at a higher frequency than the commercial frequency drive cells. In the gate command generation unit, the commercial frequency drive cells suppress the increase in the number of switching times when the slope of voltage command values is smaller than a slope threshold value and allow the increase in the number of switching times when the slope of the voltage command values is greater than the slope threshold value. In the cell multiplex inverter, the increase in the number of switching times in a steady condition is suppressed and overcurrent when a system voltage and/or the output current change abruptly is suppressed.

Abstract

While a solvent capable of dissolving ozone gas is being circulated through a circulation line (L2a), the temperature of the solvent is appropriately controlled, and the solvent is caused to flow into a gas-liquid mixer (21) to which the ozone gas is supplied under a freely selected supply pressure, thereby mixing and dissolving the ozone gas in the solvent. The gas-liquid mixer (21) is configured to include a solvent flow path through which the solvent flows, and an ozone gas introduction path that is provided by connection to the solvent flow path to introduce ozone gas supplied to the gas-liquid mixer (21) into the solvent flow path. The temperature of the solvent is controlled so that the vapor pressure of the solvent is lower than the supply pressure, and the ozone gas supplied to the gas-liquid mixer (21) is set to an ozone concentration of 50% by volume or more and an ozone partial pressure of 30 kPa (abs) or less.

Abstract

In the present invention, if the amplitude of a voltage command value of a certain phase is greater than the amplitude of a voltage command value of another phase, a corrected voltage command value generation unit superimposes, on the voltage command value, a sine wave of a phase opposite the certain phase as a zero-phase voltage, and if the amplitude of the voltage command value of the certain phase is smaller than the amplitude of the voltage command value of the other phase, the corrected voltage command value generation unit superimposes, on the voltage command value, a sine wave of the same phase as the certain phase as a zero-phase voltage. In a cell multiplex inverter in which a plurality of cells are star-connected to the phases of an alternating-current system in a multiplexed manner, the alternating-current output voltages of the cells can be equalized even if there is an imbalance in the alternating-current voltages or if unbalanced alternating voltages are to be output intentionally.

Abstract

In the present invention, in an inserted state, a spring shaft 12 is fixed in a position obtained by shifting a measurement which is set so that the total operating force is of a constant value other than zero, the measurement being shifted, parallel to a slider 15, from a base point on a line extending from a spindle 11 to a movable shaft 13.

Abstract

A 6th-order harmonic correction unit 100 receives input of a voltage command Vcmd and a phase command θv and determines the amplitude value Vx6, Vy6 of a 6th-order correction component when the voltage command Vcmd exceeds a saturation voltage VB. A corrected voltage command Vx, Vy is determined on the basis of the amplitude value Vx6, Vy6 of the 6th-order correction component. Switching element gate signals Gu to Gw are generated on the basis of the corrected voltage command Vx, Vy. In a voltage-type inverter, output voltage is expanded beyond a voltage limit, and both the amplitude and frequency bandwidth of a harmonic are suppressed.
