Abstract: Provided are embodiments for determining solenoid plunger position by performing a method which includes generating, by a first signal circuit, a first signal based at least in part on a pull-in current value of a current applied to a solenoid coil of a solenoid. The method further includes generating, by a second signal circuit, a second signal by applying a time delay to the first signal. The method further includes comparing, by a comparator circuit, the first signal and the second signal to determine whether a plunger of the solenoid has moved within the solenoid from a first position to a second position. The method further includes, responsive to determining that the plunger of the solenoid has moved within the solenoid from the first position to the second position, reducing the current applied to the solenoid coil of the solenoid from the pull-in current value to a hold current value.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and devices for calculating winding currents at a delta side for a transformer. The transformer has two or more windings, with a first winding being a delta connected winding. The method includes obtaining line currents measured with measurement equipment associated with lines connected with the windings. The method further includes calculating zero sequence currents for at least a second winding, from the line currents of a corresponding line. The method further includes calculating zero sequence currents for the first winding, based on the zero sequence currents for at least the second winding, a phase displacement between the windings, and a turns ratio associated with the windings. The winding currents is calculated from the zero sequence currents of the first winding, and the line currents of a corresponding line.

Abstract: Provided is a diagnostic device for a coil including a voltage application unit applying an impulse voltage to the coil; a response voltage detection unit detecting a response voltage from the coil with respect to the impulse voltage; an index calculation unit calculating a determination index indicating an electrical feature of the coil based on the response voltage; and a determination unit determining whether there is an abnormality in a target coil to be diagnosed by comparing the determination index of a reference coil that is the coil that is normal and the determination index of the target coil. At least one of a zero cross point at which the response voltage intersects with a reference voltage and a peak voltage on a positive side and a negative side of the response voltage is used as the determination index, in addition to a circuit constant of the coil.

Abstract: A current sensing method measures a fractional current through a coil having a plurality of coil windings by using a current sensing resistor to measure a current through a subset of the plurality of coil windings and using a voltage sensor to measure a voltage drop across the current sensing resistor. The measured current and voltage values are provided to a processor to determine the fractional current and phase of the coil. For example, the fractional current and phase of the coil may be determined by calculating a total current of the coil as I=n(V/Rx), where n is the number of coil windings of the coil, V is the measured voltage, and Rx is the impedance of the current sensing resistor. The coil may be a secondary winding used in a wireless power transfer system.

Abstract: The characteristics of a winding to be tested is allowed to be analyzed more easily and in a shorter time. A testing instrument 1 includes an impulse voltage application capacitor Cs having one end connected to an external terminal T2, a switch SW and a current limiting resistor Rs connected in series between another end of the impulse voltage application capacitor Cs and an external terminal T1, and a parameter calculator 5. The parameter calculator 5 calculates at least one of the value of the equivalent capacitor Cd, the value of the equivalent inductor Ld and the value of the equivalent resistor Rd by performing regression analysis using a measured value of a voltage Vcd in an analysis time period Ta from turning on of the switch SW to start of resonance based on the equivalent inductor Ld, the equivalent capacitor Cd and the equivalent resistor Rd pertaining to a winding 11.

Abstract: Disclosed is a diagnostic apparatus structured to be electrically connected with a coil stack of a drive mechanism of a control device of a nuclear reactor. The coil stack has a plurality of coils. The diagnostic apparatus includes a power supply and a controller including a processor and a memory that stores a number of routines including a number of instructions. When executed on the processor the instructions cause the diagnostic apparatus to apply to a coil a voltage that varies as a function of time, detect a current in the coil as a function of time, identify in the current a first inflection point and a second inflection point, and determine, based upon an electronic evaluation that includes the first inflection point and the second inflection point, that the coil is one of functioning properly and in a state of at least partial failure.
