Abstract: A DC-AC inverter system using a state observer and a control method thereof are provided. The control method of the DC-AC inverter system includes the following steps. The state observer outputs a filter-capacitor-current estimation value at a next sampling time according to a DC link voltage at a current sampling time and a filter-capacitor-voltage actual value at the current sampling time. The filter-inductor-current estimation value at the next sampling time is compared with the filter-capacitor-current estimation value at the next sampling time to obtain a load current estimation value at the next sampling time. An inductor voltage estimator outputs a filter-inductor-voltage estimation value at the next sampling time according to the load current estimation value at the next sampling time. A feed-forward control is performed according to the filter-inductor-voltage estimation value at the next sampling time.

Abstract: A detachable transformer for contactless power system includes a first magnetic coupling element wound with coil and a second magnetic coupling element wound with coil. The first magnetic coupling element and the second magnetic coupling element are of symmetric shape and arranged in contactless manner to provide contactless power coupling. The first magnetic coupling element and the second magnetic coupling element are designed to have concave portion and convex portion on facing surface thereof. Therefore, the magnetic flux can be confined and the magnetic resistance is reduced to enhance conversion efficiency of the detachable transformer.

Abstract: A reluctance force brake device applies the coupling and combining concept of the reluctance braking unit to the original rotating source or say mechanical rotation axle for kinetic energy output. The reluctance braking unit, utilizing electrical energy from forward electrical energy source or brake reverse recover energy, generates the reverse reluctance force to reduce the speed of rotating source to operate brake action. The driving design can be extended to absorb the brake reverse recovery energy for recycling in motives related applications, which can help to upgrade or replace the bake system of traditional mechanical vehicles or electrical vehicles, and improve the applicability for drive-by-wire development trend.
