Lightning protective design of an aircraft fuel system is closely related to the safety of the flight. Recently, composite material in building an aircraft becomes more important because it can reduce the weight of the aircraft. The composite materials decrease the protection against the effect of lightning. Lightning protective design of metal material aircraft has been researched for a long time and the design technique has been announced widely. However, research on the lightning protective design using composite material aircraft is very limited. In this study, lightning protective design for fuel tank structural component, access cover, fuel filler cap and drain valve in carbon fiber composite material aircraft have been presented. To show the compliance with FAA airworthiness standard regarding the presented protection designs, three steps, including lightning strike analysis, lightning environment analysis and certification test, were conducted in accordance with FAA AC 20-53.

An investigation on lightning characteristics and damage to wind turbines was performed on Jeju and Gangwon regions. The lightning data from January 2010 to September 2013 detected by IMPACT ESP were collected and analyzed in detail. Hangyeong and Seongsan wind farms of Jeju province and Taebaek, Changjuk, Taegisan and Gangwon wind farms of Gangwon province were selected for this study. Lightning rates and lightning damage events at the six wind farms were compared with each other. Lightning maps for the two regions were drawn using lightning frequency data. As a result, lightning frequency of Gangwon region was higher than that of Jeju region, while lightning strength of Gangwon was weaker than that of Jeju. Lightning rates were assessed to be good for all of the six wind farms. No lightning damage to wind turbines occurred at the two wind farms of Jeju, while some lightning damage to wind turbines took place at the four wind farms of Gangwon.

직격뇌가 높은 건축물에 치거나 인접 건물로부터 뇌전류가 유입되었을 때 잘못된 피뢰설비로 인한 피해는 매우 심각한 실정이다. 낙뢰가 치는 순간에 반도체와 같은 민감한 전자부품을 사용하는 전자 및 통신기기는 뇌전류로 인한 전자기장의 영향으로 오동작이 발생하거나 부품의 손상을 입기가 쉽다. 본 논문에서는 건축물 구조체에 직격뇌가 유입되었을 때 건축물 구조체 및 건물 주위에 나타나는 전위분포특성을 연구하였다. 본 논문에서 30m 높이 건축물의 상부 모서리와 중앙부 그리고 건축물 하부 모서리와 중앙부로 뇌전류가 유입된다고 가정하여 건축물의 전계분포특성을 시뮬레이션하였으며, 뇌전류는 2중 지수함수형태로 모의된 20kA 임펄스 서지 전류를 주입하였다. 뇌서지 전류의 주파수 특성은 Fast Fourier Transform(FFT)을 이용하여 얻었으며, 얻어진 주파수 값을 이용하여 건축물 구조체와 인접지역의 Scalar Potentials과 Electric Fields의 특성을 시뮬레이션하였다. 또한 철골 빔 건축물의 철골 빔에 직접 뇌전류가 유입되는 경우와 건물 하부의 접지전극에 뇌전류가 유입되는 경우로 분리 하여 연구하였다. 그 결과 뇌전류의 유입경로가 건축물의 모서리부분 보다는 중심부에 위치될 때 전위 및 전계 크기가 작았으며 건축 철골구조물보다 건축물 하부에 접지전극이 설치될 때 더 낮은 전계 값을 갖는 것을 확인하였다.

Surges generated by direct strike or induction of lightning, frequent opening and closing of power system breakers, etc. cause excessive overvoltage, which can interfere with normal operation of transformers, circuit breakers, and power equipment. In order to prevent such phenomena, this study goes further from the method of establishing countermeasures by installing lightning arresters on power equipment or lines in parallel, and furthermore, remotely checking the condition of the lightning arrester and preparing immediate countermeasures when an event occurs. The purpose of the study is to prevent damage in advance.

Purpose: This study aims to compare the grounding methods of transformers currently used in most industrial sites in Korea to analyze the stability of power quality and the risk of electric shock. Method: The ungrounded method allows for continuous power supply even in the event of a single-phase ground fault, resulting in a lower risk of electric shock. In contrast, the solidly grounded method focuses on quickly cutting off power during incidents such as ground faults or lightning strikes to protect load equipment, as explained through literature comparison. Result and Conclusion: It is concluded that the ungrounded method is preferable in environments where continuous power supply is essential.

This study was carried out to determine the effectiveness of uniconazole in ameliorating low and high temperature injury in tomato plants(Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cvs. Fireball and Patio). Plants were given a soil drench of 0, 0.001, 0.01 or $0.1mg{\cdot}pot^{-1}$ uniconazole, and after 14 days, were treated with 12-h day/12-h night cycles at $25/25^{\circ}C$, $2.5/25^{\circ}C$, $25/2.5^{\circ}C$ or $40/40^{\circ}C$ for 4 days in controlled-environment chamber. Number of damaged leaves per plant, reduction of stem elongation, and overall injury were high at $2.5/25^{\circ}C$, but more reduction of leaf elongation, delay of flowering, and abortion of floral bud were observed in plants at $40/40^{\circ}C$. There was difference in degree of injury between cultivars, thus, 'Fireball' was much affected by unfavorable temperature regimes. All concentrations of uniconazole reduced leaf and stem elongation, increased total chlorophyll concentration, delayed flowering, and significantly provided protection against low and high temperature injury in two cultivars. In general, the application of uniconazole did not inhibit flowering delay and floral bud abortion induced by high and low temperature exposure. Our results support the hypothesis that the role of uniconazole is related to defense system against oxidative stress induced by low temperature stress. Further research is required to clarifu the phytoprotective mechanism of this compound agaist high temperature stress.

This paper deals with the lightning effects on aircraft. The effects are divided into two groups. The one is the direct effect due to the direct attachment of the lightning channel and/or conduction of lightning current. The other is the indirect effect like electrical transients induced by lightning in aircraft conductive components such as electric circuits. In this paper presents the analysis of lightning mechanism.
