Abstract:
A series of seismic tests of mechanical snubbers on a full-scale model piping system provided a unique opportunity for detailed scrutiny of snubber seismic behavior on an actual piping system. The observed snubber behavior is a complicated pattern of braking and releasing, drag and drift, and the dynamic characteristics of the snubber, as well as the input motion, play a role in the response of the snubber. The snubbers were effective in limiting pipe displacements. Relative accelerations across the snubber were larger than expected. Snubber hysteretic behavior was irregular. Results from this testing are important in understanding snubber behavior, evaluating snubber performance, and in assessing alternatives to snubbers.

Abstract:
This paper presents a systematic approach to developing turn-off snubber for an interleaving converter to smooth out switch turn-off transition. With the approach, the interleaving converter with two turn-off snubbers, which are formed by two L-C-D type snubbers, can be replaced by the one with turn-off snubber composed of a single-capacitor snubber. It can be used in the basic six interleaved converters, such as buck, boost, buck-boost, ‘cuk, zeta and sepic converters. In this research, the structure of the interleaved converter with the turn-off snubber can be conveniently simplified from the derived general configurations, reducing the complexity of circuit structure significantly. Measured results from a buck prototype converter have been verified to prove the feasibility of the derived turn-off snubber.

Abstract:
In this article both the general linear regenerative turn-on and turn-off snubbers are analysed and optimized independently from one another, in terms of minimum energy losses. The dissipative snubber - which was up to now the only optimized snubber - now becomes merely a special case of this general regenerative snubber. Equations describing the most important parameters are presented in tables, while some energy versus snubber size graphs are also shown.

Abstract:
This paper proposes an interleaved high step-up converter with different soft-switching snubbers for PV energy conversion applications. For the high step-up converter, interleaved and coupled-inductor technologies are used to reduce output ripple current and increase output power level. Simultaneously, two types of snubbers, a single-capacitor snubber and boost type snubber, are introduced separately into the discussed converters for comparing their performances of conversion efficiency and switching losses. For drawing maximum power from the PV arrays, a perturbation-and-observation method realized with the microcontroller is adopted to achieve maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm and power regulating scheme. Finally, two prototypes of the interleaved coupled-inductor boost converter with a single-capacitor snubber and with boost type snubber are implemented, respectively. The experimental results obtained are used to verify and compare the performances and feasibilities of the discussed converters with different snubbers in PV conversion applications. The experimental results show that the proposed system is suitable for PV energy conversion applications when the duty ratios of switches of the converter are less than 0.5.

Abstract:
The damping coefficients and ratios of piping system snubber supports were found to vary logarithmically with pipe support nodal displacement. For piping systems with fundamental frequencies in the range of 0.6 to 6.6 Hz, the support damping ratio for snubber supports was found to increase with increasing fundamental frequency. For 3-kip snubbers, damping coefficient and damping ratio decreased logarithmically with nodal displacement, indicating that the 3-kip snubbers studied behaved essentially as coulomb dampers; while for the 10-kip snubbers studied, damping coefficient and damping ratio increased logarithmically with nodal displacement.

Full text
Abstract:
Earthquake-simulator experiments were conducted on a liquid centrifugal chiller supported by four isolation/restraint systems with built-in elastomeric snubbers. The test plan incorporated variations of input motion amplitudes and snubber properties to investigate their effect on three response quantities: peak dynamic forces induced into the snubbers, peak acceleration, and peak relative displacement response of the equipment. The elastomeric snubbers limited the displacement responses of the vibration-isolated equipment at the expense of excessive dynamic forces and amplification of the equipment acceleration response. The snubber gap size was the most influential property on the response quantities. For high-amplitude input motions, all the response quantities increased with an increase of the gap size. Due to the compressibility of the snubber elastomeric contact-surface, the actual gap size was always larger than the nominal gap size. Even with a nominal gap size less than 0.25 in., the seismic response of the equipment was substantially different from the seismic response of rigidly mounted equipment. Compared to snubbers with constant contact-surface, snubbers with expanding contact-surface resulted in lower dynamic forces. The thicker and softer contact-surface could lower the dynamic forces induced into the snubbers but resulted in larger relative displacement response of the equipment.

Abstract:
A Flyback converter is a simple switch-mode power supply that can be used to generate a DC output from either an AC or DC input. The converter switch is the most critical part of any converter. The voltage stress across the switch is a major issue as the high voltage spikes occur due to interaction between its output capacitance and the leakage inductance of the transformer. These spikes can be reduced with various snubbers like conventional tertiary winding, Resistor Capacitor and Diode(RCD) snubber, energy regenerative snubber and an active clamp snubber. This paper aims to analyze and compare the voltage stress across the MOSFET switch of Flyback converter with various snubber circuits.

Abstract:
The Ritz averaging method is utilized to reduce the nonlinear characteristics of piping system supports (snubbers) to equivalent linear support stiffnesses during seismic excitation. The equivalent snubber support stiffnesses are used in seismic modal analyses of two piping systems. The analyses are performed in order to determine the effect that high snubber lockup velocities have on piping system stresses. The results show that the lockup velocity of snubbers in the systems analyzed can be safely allowed to increase above normal limits without any significant increase in nodal stresses.

Abstract:
With the penetration of electric vehicles (EVs), there have been paradigm shifts in the transportation sector. EVs are ideally considered to be clean and eco-friendly, but they can overload the existing grid infrastructure and significantly contribute towards carbon emissions depending on the source of charging. The ideal solution is to develop a charging infrastructure for EVs that is integrated with solar energy technology. This paper presents the design of a zero-voltage switching snubber-based bidirectional converter for an off-grid charging station for EVs. The proposed system includes a solar array with a boost converter, a bidirectional converter with snubber circuits and an energy storage unit. A comprehensive comparison between various types of snubbers, such as the resistive capacitive diode snubber, active clamp snubber and flyback snubber, is presented. This type of system configuration clamps the rail voltage, due to the difference in current between leakage inductance and low voltage side-fed inductor currents, resulting in reduced current spikes at the converter’s switches. Such a converter, therefore, leads to higher efficiency of the charging station for EVs. The design of a snubber-based off-grid charging station for EVs is formulated and validated in the MATLAB/Simulink environment.

Abstract:
In the application of power inverters, power density has become a key design specification where it has stringent requirements on system size and weight. Achieving high power density need to combine lasted wide bandgap (WBG) device technology and high switching frequency to reduce passive filter size thus further shrink overall space. While still maintaining decent power conversion efficiency and low electromagnetic interference (EMI) with higher switching frequency, soft-switching needs to be implemented. A novel auxiliary resonant snubber is introduced. The design and operation are carried out, in which this snubber circuitry enables main Gallium Nitride (GaN) switches operating under zero voltage switching (ZVS) condition, and auxiliary Silicon Carbide (SiC) diodes switching under zero current switching (ZCS) condition. Besides, the auxiliary snubber circuitry gating algorithm is also optimized which allows reduction of the switching and conduction loss in auxiliary GaN switches to obtain higher system efficiency and better thermal performance. Here, this novel auxiliary resonant snubber circuitry is applied to a traditional full bridge inverter with flexible modulation suitability. This proposed inverter can be applied to a wide range of potential applications, such as string solar inverter, renewable energy combined distributed generation, dc-ac part of bi-directional electrical vehicle (EV) on-board charger, and uninterruptible power supply (UPS), etc.<br>Master of Science

Abstract:
With the rise in demand for renewable energy sources, photovoltaics have become increasingly popular as a means of reducing household dependence on the utility grid for power. But solar panels generate dc electricity, a dc to ac inverter is required to allow the energy to be used by the existing ac electrical distribution. Traditional full bridge inverters are able to accomplish this, but they suffer from many problems such as low efficiency, large size, high cost, and generation of electrical noise, especially common mode noise. Efforts to solve these issues have resulted in improved solutions, but they do not eliminate all of the problems and even exaggerate some of them. Soft switching inverters are able to achieve high efficiency by eliminating the switching losses of the power stage switches. Since this action requires additional components that are large and have additional losses associated with them, these topologies have traditionally been limited to higher power levels. The resonant snubber inverter is a soft switching topology that eliminates many of these problems by taking advantage of the bipolar switching action of the power stage switches. This allows for a significant size reduction in the additional parts and elimination of common mode noise, making it an ideal candidate for lower power levels. Previous attempts to implement the resonant snubber inverter have been hampered by low efficiency due to parasitics of the silicon devices used, but, with recent developments in new semiconductor technologies such as silicon carbide and gallium nitride, these problems can be minimized and possibly eliminated. The goal of this thesis is to design and experimentally verify a design of a resonant snubber inverter that takes advantage of new semiconductor materials to improve efficiency while maintaining minimal additional, parts, simple control, and elimination of common mode noise. A 600 W prototype is built. The performance improvements over previous designs are verified and compared to alternative high efficiency solutions along with a novel control technique for the auxiliary resonant snubber. A standalone and grid tie controller are developed to verify that the auxiliary resonant snubber and new auxiliary control technique does not complicate the closed loop control.<br>Master of Science

Abstract:
This thesis presents an analytical approach using Root-Loci method for designing optimum passive series RC snubbers for continuous-current synchronous buck switch mode power supply (SMPS). Synchronous buck SMPS is the most popular power converter topology found in modern consumer electronics. It offers relatively good efficiency to target the high-current and low-voltage requirements while it is also relatively inexpensive to implement. Passive series RC snubbers are simple, efficient and cost-effective open-loop equalizer circuit for synchronous buck SMPS. Its purpose is to control and to balance between the rate of rise and the overshoots of transient switching waveform in order to optimize efficiency and reliability Existing methods of RC snubber design are solely based on second-order approximation. It is investigated in this research that this approximation is highly inaccurate in SMPS applications because higher order equivalent models are required for the load path of the SMPS. The results using the RC snubbers obtained from existing method are shown to be unsatisfactory without correlation to the calculations and simulations based on second-order approximation. Optimum RC values obtained using Root-Loci approach presented in this thesis are shown to correlate to both Spice simulation and lab measurements.

Abstract:
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) is a major concern in inverter motor drive systems. The sources of EMI have been commonly identified as high switching dv/dt and di/dt rates interacting with inverter parasitic components. The reduction of parasitic components relies on highly integrated circuit layout and packaging. This is the way to deal with noise path. On the other hand, switching dv/dt and di/dt can be potentially reduced by soft-switching techniques; thus the intensity of noise source is reduced. <p> In this paper, the relation between the dv/dt di/dt and the EMI generation are discussed. The EMI sources of a hard-switching single-phase PWM inverter are identified and measured with separation of common-mode and differential-mode noises. The noise reduction in an auxiliary resonant snubber inverter (RSI) is presented. The observation of voltage ringing and current ringing and the methods to suppress these ringing in the implementation of RSI are also discussed. The test condition and circuit layout are described as the basis of the study. And the experimental EMI spectra of both hard- and soft-switching inverter are compared. The effectiveness and limitation of the EMI reduction of the ZVT-RSI are also discussed and concluded. <p> The control interface circuit and gate driver design are described in the appendix. The implementation of variable charging time control of the resonant inductor current is also explained in the appendix.<br>Master of Science

Thesis (MScEng)--University of Stellenbosch, 2001.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This thesis describes the study of two soft-switching inverter topologies that are well suited to high-power applications. For the first topology, namely an active resonant turn-off snubber, the existing theory is expanded with a detailed study into operation strategies and topology protection. This is followed by an investigation into the second topology, which is a combined snubber that reduces both turn-off and turn-on losses. The investigation involves a detailed analysis of the losses in the snubber components and main devices, as well as a study into the effects of parasitic components and diode reverse recovery on the operation of the snubber. Based on this theory a snubber optimisation procedure is also developed. Possible operation strategies and protection techniques were also evaluated for this topology. Single-phase experimental inverters were used to verify the basic operation theory and switching loss prediction for both topologies. The thesis is concluded by the design and construction of a practical soft-switching threephase inverter. After implementation the experimental inverter is used for theory verification.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie proefskrif beskryf die ondersoek na twee saggeskakelde omsetter topologieë wat veral geskik is vir hoë-drywing toepassings.

Abstract:
At Entergy River Bend Station (a 978 MWe BWR located near Baton Rouge, Louisiana) snubber examination and testing have become unwanted expenses with the potential to lengthen planned outages and increase ALARA concerns. This paper presents a new concept for snubber replacement which can be used to expand the “Snubber to Strut” methodology. The E-BAR is a passive gapped support fabricated to be a “drop-in” replacement for snubbers. During normal plant operation the E-BAR functions like a box support, and during dynamic loading the E-BAR limits pipe motion and functions as a seismic restraint. Combining the guidance of WRC-300 [1] (snubber to strut criteria) and the industry practice of installing box supports with 1/16″ gaps between the pipe face and steel frame, generic criteria were developed to facilitate drop in snubber replacements. Replacements based on these criteria do not require re-analysis of the piping system. At the River Bend Station 102 snubbers were identified with thermal movements between 1/16″ and 3/8″. Sixty four snubbers (&gt; 60%) met the generic criteria and were shown to be located at appropriate locations for snubber replacement. Development and explanation of the generic criteria and their applications are discussed here-in.

Abstract:
Abstract Hydraulic shock suppressors (snubbers) are used in dynamic restraints to prevent piping systems and equipment from occasional loads such as turbine trips, sudden valve closures, and seismic events. An occasional load can be defined as an impact load where forces and moments are applied over very short periods of time. The current study is a continuation of a published study on snubbers experiencing high frequency vibrations. The previous study concluded that snubbers should not be used in high frequency vibratory environments due to deterioration in the quality of hydraulic fluid and an increase in wear on snubber components. The present study takes a closer look at heat energy added to the system due to such high frequency vibrations. The power delivered by a typical vibration observed in an industrial piping system is calculated and assumed to enter into the snubber fluid as heat. This is modeled using a thermal finite element simulation and the resulting thermal distribution pattern, within the snubber body, is produced. Also, a separate analysis is performed in order to get a thermal distribution pattern on a snubber due to an increase in the environmental temperature. This distribution pattern is then compared with the one obtained from an internal heat source. The study is performed using computational methods in conjunction with analytical methods to determine if heat energy is the main cause of snubber fluid deterioration.

Abstract:
The ASME OM Code, Subsection ISTD, is the required code for conducting preservice and inservice examination and testing of dynamic restraints (Snubbers). The latest approved edition of this OM Code is now, or soon to be the 2012 Edition. With the publication of the 2006 addenda to Section XI of the ASME Boiler &amp; Pressure Vessel Code, the snubber requirements, which were previously located in Article IWF-5000, were deleted. When the requirements of IWF-5000 were deleted, the requirements for examination and testing of snubbers as required by 10CFR50.55a were required to be in accordance with the ASME OM Code, Subsection ISTD. When Owners prepare their ten-year ISI program updates that incorporate the 2006 Addenda and later of the Section XI Inspection Code, the snubber requirements will be required to be in accordance with the ASME OM Code, Subsection ISTD, 2004 Edition with Addenda through 2006 or later approved editions. This edition of the ASME OM Code has been referenced in the NRC Regulations dated June 21, 2011. Since that time, Owners are required to meet the requirements of the latest approved edition of the ASME OM Code, for snubber examination and testing requirements when snubber programs are updated. With the transition of the snubber program from the ISI program and ASME Section XI Code requirements to the IST program and the ASME OM Code, there is sometimes confusion and implementation gaps where regulatory program requirements could be missed. This paper will address the transition and identify potential pitfalls and how to mitigate them. Paper published with permission.

Abstract:
Abstract One of the typical characteristics of high temperature piping systems is that they are more flexible. This is due primarily to expansion stress limits which cause the piping designer to add additional elbows and to minimize axial or lateral stops. The resulting higher flexibility and lower frequency piping system is vulnerable to vibration loading which may result in excessive displacements, and hence, excessive stresses. Two options for reducing vibration displacements are adding snubbers or adding struts to the piping system. Both snubbers and struts will act as rigid components when subjected to vibration loading. The snubber has the advantage over the strut of being able to displace in all directions when the piping system is heated, thus allowing the expansion stresses to be minimized. Also, snubbers that are better suited for mitigating operational vibrations also have the advantage of being effective in all three orthogonal directions. The strut has the advantage over the snubber in that the installation cost is less. Two identical piping systems were both experiencing high vibration loading requiring the addition of vibration mitigation supports. One piping system was remediated with snubbers, and the other was remediated with struts. The resulting cost differences and the vibration response of these two piping systems will be discussed. Additionally, the challenges of making these two approaches most effective will be discussed.

Abstract:
Delivering cost reductions via the Nuclear Promise can appear to be at odds with the safe operation and maintenance of nuclear facilities. However, In-Service Examination (ISE) and In-Service Testing (IST) programs can deliver significant gains in efficiency and effectiveness with proper application of the ASME O&amp;M code. Along with scheduled maintenance prescribed by the manufacturer, Dynamic Restraints (snubbers) require periodic visual inspection and testing to ensure the installed population will perform its safety function during seismic events or dynamic operational transients. Methods prescribed in the ASME O&amp;M Code Subsection ISTD are effective in identifying bad actors and verifying the operational readiness of the population, but can come at a significant cost when not properly utilized, especially when the penalty for a failed test or inspection is applied to the ISE or IST campaign. The Nuclear Promise can be realized in a snubber ISE or IST program with a thorough understanding of the intent of the prescribed testing and the mechanics of the safety functions to be verified. With this understanding, legacy requirements that were grandfathered into a program can be examined as to their relevance, and procurement specifications and testing procedures can be written that are pertinent and current to industry best practices. This paper, through the lens of a snubber manufacturer and ASME certificate holder, examines some common and uncommon examples found in industry that add significant cost, time, or dose to a snubber ISE/IST program, and the basis for eliminating them. The methodology used to evaluate an ISE/IST program requirement and determine its effectiveness in verifying a snubber’s safety function while satisfying the O&amp;M code could be used for other components under the jurisdiction of the O&amp;M code. In this manner, the Nuclear Promise can be safely delivered in an ISE/IST program that does not compromise the intent or integrity of Code requirements. Paper published with permission.

Abstract:
Subsection ISTD of ASME’s Operation and Maintenance of Nuclear Power Plants (OM Code) is the required code for preservice and inservice examination and testing of dynamic restraints (snubbers). This code replaced the inspection requirements of Article IWF-5000, “Inservice Inspection Requirements for Snubbers,” in Section XI, “Inservice Inspection of Nuclear Power Plant Components,” of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code after the publication of the 2006 addenda to Section XI, which deleted Article IWF-5000. When the requirements of IWF-5000 were deleted, the requirements for examination and testing of snubbers, as required by Section 50.55a, “Codes and Standards,” of Title 10, “Energy,” of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR 50.55a) became those specified by Subsection ISTD of the ASME OM Code. Therefore, when nuclear power plant owners prepare their ten-year inservice testing (IST)/inservice inspection (ISI) program updates that incorporate the 2006 (or later) addenda to Section XI, the snubber requirements will be required to be in accordance with those of Subsection ISTD of the latest approved edition and addenda of the ASME OM Code (2004 Edition with Addenda through 2006). This edition of the ASME OM Code is cited in the NRC Rulemaking which was published on June 21, 2011. Because this is a change in requirements, owners should be asking some of the following questions: What is the difference between our existing program requirements and those included in Subsection ISTD of the ASME OM Code? How will this change our existing program or the way the current snubber examination and testing program is implemented? How much effort will be required to implement this program change? This paper will provide some specific guidance for the implementation of the ISTD Code and will identify typical areas where changes may be required to existing snubber examination and testing programs. It will also describe some approaches to satisfy the requirements of ISTD-6000, “Service Life Monitoring,” which might not have been included in the previous requirements under Section XI.
