A mechanically tunable planar single-turn inductor in air is proposed. The bistable flexible deflection of axially compressed wire segments is used for variation of the loop area of regular polygonal loop inductors. We present analytical expressions for the loop inductance and confirm the theoretical findings by magneto-quasi-static field simulation on exemplary polygonal circuits.
One major problem of a continuous process like plastic extrusion is their incapability to deal with non-local gas pressure. This is an inherent problem because a continuous process has an open end in the feeding port where pressure can escape. In this study a novel feeding system was developed to enable granulate feeding into gas pressurized processes inside a single- or twin-screw extruder. With this apparatus gas pressure can be applied inside the extrusion process. The apparatus separates the pressurized extruder from the dosing equipment that feeds the extruder. It keeps the pressure inside the system while continuously feeding new material into the process. A small-scale prototype was designed for proof-of concept. The small size of the prototype was able to handle small amounts of granulates of around 100 - 200 g/h. An applied gas pressure of 8 bar was achieved. In future optimizations, throughput can be increased and maximum applied gas pressure towards 15-20 bar.
We present inductive power transfer (IPT) with a half-bridge converter based on differential relaxation self-oscillation. The oscillation dynamics of the converter automatically adapts to variation in the inductive coupling link and changes in the load, respectively. Design equations based on theoretical circuit analysis reveals a high power transfer efficiency (>90%) for alteration of coupling distance in the strong coupling regime. A prototype system employing GaN-HEMTs confirms the theoretically predicted characteristics of the proposed circuit.
We present a novel differential relaxation oscillator for inductive power transfer. The proposed oscillator offers an automatic adaption of the oscillation period to a change in the power link impedance, which ensures a high efficient operation for variable loads and coupling factors. A detailed circuit model of the self-oscillation system is provided with analytical design equations. We find a large self-oscillation range for variable coupling factors and loads. The theoretical results are confirmed by circuit simulation and measurements carried out on a low-power demonstrator system. We demonstrate non-resonant and robust self-adaption of the relaxation oscillator to coupling factors ranging from k=0.6-0.9.
Increasing demand for energy-efficient means of transport has steadily intensified the trend towards lightweight components. Thermoplastic glass fiber composites (organo sheets) play a major role in the production of functional automotive components. Organo sheets are cut, shaped and functionalized by injection molding to produce hybrid components, such as those used in car door modules. The cutting process produces a considerable amount of production waste, which has thus far been thermally recycled. This study develops a closed mechanical recycling process and analyzes the different steps of the process. The offcuts were shredded using two shredding methods and implemented directly in the injection-molding process. Using tensile tests and impact bending tests, the material properties of the recycled materials were compared with the virgin material. In addition, fiber length degradation via the injection-molding process and the influence of the waterjet-cutting process on the mechanical properties are investigated. Recycled offcuts are both comparable to new material in terms of mechanical properties and usability, and are also economically and ecologically advantageous. Recycling polypropylene waste with glass fiber reinforcement in a closed loop is an effective way to reduce industrial waste in a sustainable and economical production process.
