A control method of input-parallel and output-series connected inverters with a 3-phase PWM converter for a plasma generator is proposed in this paper. By controlling a DC-link voltage with PWM converter considering the load level, the proposed control method can improve an efficiency in intermediate-load and light-load conditions compared with adopting conventional control method. Through the sim...

In this paper, a control strategy of a 2-stage AC-AC converter for a plasma generator consisting of an AC-DC PWM converter and a high-frequency phase-shift full-bridge DC-AC inverter is proposed. In case of previous control methods of this configuration, the output power quality in the light-load region is not seriously considered. Therefore, the control method to minimize degradation of the outpu...

This study presents a design method of resonant network for the superheated steam (SHS) generator using induction heating (IH) method. In order to generate the pure SHS, a heating object composed of titanium (Ti) grade 2 is used. Thus, to facilitate the IH, the analysis of SHS and Ti-load characteristics should be performed. Based on the analysis results, feasible resonant networks are reviewed an...
In this study, wafer cleaning equipment was designed and fabricated using the induction heating (IH) method and a short-time superheated steam (SHS) generation process. To prevent problems arising from the presence of particulate matter in the fluid flow region, pure grade 2 titanium (Ti) R50400 was used in the wafer cleaning equipment for heating objects via induction. The Ti load was designed an...
