Design and Prototyping of an Antenna-Coupled Cryotron by Shauna Marie Jensen A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering Thesis Committee: Robert Bass, Chair Richard Campbell Branimir Pejcinovic Portland State University 2014 © 2014 Shauna Marie Jensen Abstract Grid-scale integration of renewable energy sources and smart grid devices has created new demands in flexible power conversion. State-of-the-art semiconductor power switches present limitations in power handling capability, as well as forward and reverse breakdown voltages. Superconducting materials are a viable alternative due to their robustness against high ampacities, large electric fields and abrupt changes in power flow. This work pays focus to material testing and apparatus design for an antenna-coupled cryotron (ACC), which is a superconducting power switch. Design, fabrication and testing are examined for a longitudinal resonant cavity, paired with monopole transmit and modified slot receive antennae.

  • Chapter 7 TIMERS, COUNTERS and T/C APPLICATIONS
    Chapter 7 TIMERS, COUNTERS and T/C APPLICATIONS Introduction Timers and counters are discussed in the same chapter since most rules apply to both. Timers and counters have been in existence for as long as relays and provide an important component in the development of logic. Timers were constructed in the past as an add-on device to relays slowing down the transition of the plunger from immediately opening or closing. The time delay was accomplished with a pneumatic bladder that allowed the air to escape either quickly or slowly depending on the setting of the timer. Quick was usually less than a second and slow was usually between 30 and 60 seconds. Setting this kind of timer was an inexact science and today's traffic lights are an example of the fickle nature of timers that seldom respond in exactly the same from day to day and year to year. For the first time, function blocks are introduced in the rung output position or coil position to provide timer and counter functions. Function blocks allow inputs from the left and pass power through to the right when the function is done or when various conditions are met. Either the timer has timed out or the counter has counted to the preset. Function block usage differs from manufacturer to manufacturer. Function blocks rely on a standard format to enter information about the counter or timer. All variables in the function block must be entered correctly before the device will operate. Some timers are referred to as retentive. Retentive refers to the device’s ability to remember its exact status such that when the circuit is again activated, the timer continues from the previous point.

  • Float Type Level Switches Contents Page Start Single Point Small Size Engineered Plastic
    INTRODUCTION Float Type Level Switches Contents Page Start Single Point Small Size Engineered Plastic ........................................... A-2 GEMS Level Switches operate on a direct, Alloy ........................................................................ A-8 simple principle. In most models, a float encircling a stationary stem is equipped Large Size PERMANENT with powerful, permanent magnets. As MAGNET Engineered Plastic .........................................A-12 the float rises or lowers with liquid level, Alloy ......................................................................A-13 the magnetic field generated from within FLOAT the float actuates a hermetically sealed, Specialty Switches ...............................................A-20 magnetic reed switch mounted within the HERMETICALLY stem. The stem is made of non-magnetic SEALED MAGNETIC REED SWITCH Leak Detection .......................................................A-22 metals or rugged, engineered plastics. When mounted vertically, this basic design provides a consistent accuracy of ±1/8 inch. Multi-station versions use a separate reed switch for each level point being monitored. Side-mounted units use different actuation methods because of their horizontal attitude. The basic principle, however, is the same: as a direct result of rising or falling liquid, a magnetic field is moved into the proximity of a reed switch, causing its actuation. N Reed Switch Reliability – SINGLE POINT LEVEL SWITCHES GLASS The durable construction of these reed switch designs ensures long, trouble- REED SWITCH ENVELOPE free service. Because the effects of shock, wear and vibration are minimized, these hermetically sealed switches provide precise S repeatability with no more than 1% deviation. The switch actuation points N S remain constant over the life of the unit. See “Reed Switch Protection” in MAGNET Appendix X for information on extending the life of GEMS Level Switches.

  • FM2819 Catalog, Accessories, Controls, and Package Systems
    Package Systems, Controls, and Accessories Package Systems Check Valves Float Switches Alarm Systems Control Panels Rail Systems ® WHAT SETS ZOELLER SYSTEMS APART? Since 1939, Zoeller Company has been manufacturing water pumps of many types. From pedestal pumps in the beginning to large HP submersible, non-clog pumps in recent years, we have gained invaluable manufacturing experience from our humble beginning in August Zoeller’s basement workshop. Over the years, one of our most important mottos has been, ‘We excel at 1,000 little things’. From start to finish, we take pride in our products. When you have residential or commercial wastewater issues, you can count on Zoeller to deliver the very best solutions. Our commitment to unsurpassed quality offers years of service and durability with a responsive and knowledgeable product support team just a phone call away. • SUPPORTING THE WHOLE PACKAGE… In pumping systems, the “whole package” encompasses far more than just high quality pumps. The control, alarm, valves, disconnects, piping and container are all important components of a complete system. Zoeller understands that an installation is only as good as the weakest element, so we have gone to great lengths to provide accessory items that are as reliable as our legendary pumps. While we manufacture most of our products from start to finish, including check valves and rail systems, we recognize that producing certain specialized accessories requires a different skill set than our roots provide. In order to offer you the best components for your project, we have partnered with other specialized manufacturers, all of them leaders in their respective fields.
