INDUSTRIAL EXPERIENCE

Thermadyne Industries, Inc, West Lebanon, NH

Power Supply Design (06/ 2008~08/ 2008)

* Tested and evaluated a 4.5 kW plasma cutting power supply prototype

(half-bridge and constant current output). Tested the power factor

correction circuit and proposed changes to achieve better performance.

Investigated transformer saturation issue, found the root cause, proposed

solution, and verified with experiments.

Beijing Sifang Automation Co.,Ltd, Beijing, CHINA

Research & Development Embedded Engineer (03/2000 – 01/2003)

* Designed and implemented relay protection units, measurement and

control units used in power substations, including LCD human-machine

interface board, Data acquisition (Various sensors, ADC, DAC), Data

storage (RAM, ROM, EEPROM, FLASH), Communication (CAN, SPI, IIC and RS-

232), GPS timing, Mitsubishi M16c/62 microprocessor and power substation

control function.

RESEARCH EXPERIENCE

Power Electronics and Motor Drives Laboratory, University of Missouri–Rolla

Graduate Research Assistant (08/2004-present)

* Conducted research and development projects for the US Navy and

industrial sponsors.

* Built a cascaded diode-clamped multi-level inverter with ultracapacitor

as additional power supply for hybrid vehicle applications with improved

efficiency by eliminating dc-dc converters; Implemented control algorithm

on a DSP (TI TMS320F2812) – CPLD (Cypress) hardware system.

* Designed and implemented a multi-phase multi-level inverter for five-

phase induction machine for minimizing the torque ripple and extending

voltage range;

* Teamed with graduate research assistants to build a piezoelectric

energy harvesting system, designed a practical self-powered converter to

capture more power.

* Designed a switching chopper circuit for 50-MVA 13.8-kV system.

* Designed and built a novel impedance measurement device to analyze

stability of power electronic systems; LabVIEW program was written to

provide DAQ functions and an easy-to-use interface, and all the

control/switching functions were implemented with a TI TMS320F2407 DSP. A

three-phase rectifier-inverter-motor drive system was built as a test

bench.

* Analyzed small signal stability in the three-phase and single-phase ac

power electronics systems in the frequency domain.

* Extracted parameters of synchronous machine on-line accurately, based

on Genetic algorithm and small-signal impedance theory.

* Conducted detailed simulation of motor drive systems with ACSL and

MATLAB Simulink, which included various converter circuits, electric

machines (dc, induction, synchronous, PMSM), and different control

algorithms (Volt/Hz, Vector, Direct-Torque).

Power Electronics and Motor Drives Laboratory, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee

Graduate Research Assistant (01/2004 – 07/2004)

* Developed and implemented a flying-capacitor multi-level inverter with

an increased number of voltage levels; implemented capacitor balance

algorithm on a DSP-CPLD hardware system.
