Abstract: To provide a controller for rotary machine which can reduce the effective value of the bus line AC component, by utilizing the degree of freedom that two set of armature windings and two sets of inverters are provided, without necessity to synchronize the on/off control timing of the switching devices of first set, and the on/off control timing of the switching devices of second set. A controller for rotary machine calculates the utilization factor setting command which makes the utilization factor ratio change from 1 to 1 so that an effective value of a bus line AC component which is an AC component superimposed on a bus current which flows through a bus line connecting between the DC power source and the two set of inverters becomes lower than a case where the utilization factor ratio is 1 to 1.

Abstract: A dehydrogenation processing method for a turbine blade of a steam turbine. The method includes a step of heating the turbine blade by suppling heating steam into a casing of the steam turbine after a steam turbine plant is stopped. The heating steam supplied to the casing has a temperature that is higher than steam passing through the turbine blade during operation of the steam turbine plant. The method further includes repeating the process of supplying the heating steam into the casing a multiple of times.

Abstract: A projector acquires the distance from the projector to a screen. When the acquired distance is short, the projector increases the shutter speed of an electronic shutter of an imaging section, whereas when the acquired distance is long, the projector decreases the shutter speed of the electronic shutter of the imaging section. A pointer outputs infrared light for a predetermined period, and the imaging section of the projector captures the infrared light outputted by the pointer at the set shutter speed and identifies the position of the pointer.

Abstract: An apparatus for accurately estimating the SOC of a rechargeable battery installed in a hybrid electric vehicle. A voltage variation measurement unit measures terminal voltage variation amount of the rechargeable battery in a no-battery-current state in which a charge-discharge current does not flow in the rechargeable battery. A polarization voltage calculator calculates a polarization voltage from the measured variation amount. An electromotive force calculator subtracts the polarization voltage from a non-load voltage in a state in which a charge-discharge path is open to calculate the electromotive force of the rechargeable battery. An SOC estimator estimates the SOC of the rechargeable battery based on the electromotive force.
