In recent years, concern has been raised about the technique of controlling electrical breakdown by using laser in many fields. Especially, laser has attracted much attention in the Electro-Discharge Machining(EDM) because of its many rrents. 1berefore, this research has been perfonred to obtain fundarrental data for the discharge guide technology by a pulsed Nd:YAG laser which can be awJied to discharge processing machining. 1be experilnnts of laser-guided de discharge have been carried out at low air pressure ranging from 0.2 to 20 torr. The minimum laser-guided de discharge voltage $V_{G.min}$ at the given pressures P and distances d between an anode and a cathode was rreasured It is found that $V_{G.min}$ is much lower than the natural discharge voltage $V_{ND}$, and the values of VGrrin and $V_{ND}$ as a function of P.d has a similar tendency. The laser output energy $E_{out}$ decreases with input pulse duration $t_p$ increasing, and the rrore the value of $t_p$ increases, the higher that of V$V_{G.min}$ is obtained because the number of photons N decreases with $t_p$ increasing. In addition, the laser-guided de discharge range and the discharge guide characteristics as laser outpIt $E_{out}$ was investigated.igated.

In this paper microwave power propagated through the cold plasma was analyzed and measured with respect to the external magenetic flux density. The d. c discharge plasma was in the rectangular waveguide in which two electrode was inserted, and also the glass diseharge tube inserted in the ractangular wavegside. The direction of microwave pro-pagation, the axis of the discharge tube and external magnetic flux were perpendicular to each other. It showed that the attenuation and absorption of micro wave power propagated in the plasma was increased as the magnetic flux density, the discharge current and the pressure of the gas were increased.

In this research, the characteristics of the DC discharge that was the logical gate input of discharge logic gate PDP newly proposed was considered. The logical output is induced by controlling the potential difference of inter-electrode according to the discharge path in the discharge logic gate. From the experimental result the discharge time lag was shortened to 1/3 and the voltage has decreased to 1/2 in the case to apply priming discharge for improving stability of these DC discharges compared with the case when it is not applied. Moreover, after the priming discharge ends, the space charge generated by this discharge influences it up to about $30[{\mu}s]$. And, as a measured result of the influence that the space charge exerts on the DC discharge with the change in time and spatial distance, it has been understood that there is a possibility that going away spatially can slip out the influence of the discharge easily as for going away from the discharge time-wise. Therefore the conclusion that the discharge logic gates of each scanning electrode can be operated independently is obtained.

This paper describes a novel ac/dc power converter suitable for frequent output short-circuit faults. The output dc power of the proposed converter can be disconnected from the load within several hundred microseconds at the instant of short-circuit fault. The rising time of the dc load voltage is as small as several hundred microseconds, and there Is no overshoot of the dc voltage because the dc output fillet capacitors stay at a undischarged state. The proposed converter has the characteristics of a simplified structure, reduced cost, weight, and volume compared to the conventional power supplies for frequent output short-circuit. Analysis, simulations, and experiments are carried out to investigate the operation and usefulness of the proposed scheme.

Regenerative energy generated by regenerative braking of DC traction can cause the system malfunction or damage to the rectifier, or malfunction of the power conversion device in power supply system by DC Line voltage rise in feeder line. Regenerative energy storage system using super capacitor is one of the ways to stabilize DC line voltage. In this paper, energy storage system of DC traction system using super-capacitor bank is implemented and using the field measurement data of the station N and the station S on the Line 2, the operation characteristics of line voltage caused by regenerative energy of electric trains are verified. Also, charge/discharge characteristics of super capacitor are verified as well. Thus, we can verify the operation characteristics of super-capacitor bank for regenerative energy storage system installed in DC Traction. And if we can use field measurement data of DC line voltage, we have obtained cost reduction. The stabilization of the system will be improved by measuring the operation characteristics of regenerative energy storage system in certain section operated by DC traction and predicting the capacity and lifetime of super-capacitor.

We used the self-consistent one-dimensional model applied to FCT algorithm and FEM method in a wire-cylinder type reactor to study the characteristics of corona discharge plasma in air at the atmospheric pressure. At the pulsed do voltage and do voltage, we studied the changes of the characteristic of plasma by computing electron density profile according to the changes of voltage and the size of reactor. The changes of active radius from this result are compared with the data of Peek's. The numerical simulation results for a corona discharge plasma explain the physical mechanism of the discharge process and could be used to obtain the optimized parameters for designing the plasma reactor for pollution abatement.

포항가속기연구소 선형${\mu}$가속기의 대전력 RF부품의 시험과 RF증폭을 위해 사용되는 클라이스트론 튜브의 시험용 전원으로 펄스전원인 모듈레이터를 사용하고 있다. 고전적인 방식의 교류전압을 변환하여 직류로 만들고 이 전원을 L-C공진충전에 의해 펄스를 생성하는 펄스 커패시터에 약 2배의 직류전원으로 충전하는 기법을 사용하고 있다. 이들 전원은 저주파의 대용량 변압기를 사용하여 직류로 변환하는 부품들의 부피가 크다. 새로운 충전기법을 적용한 펄스전원의 경우는 고주파 인버터 전원을 채택하여 그 부피를 줄이고 지령충전에 의해 펄스를 생성하는 싸이라트론의 애노드에 고전압이 머무는 시간을 줄임으로서 자발방전이나 고전압 아크에 의한 오동작을 최소로 할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 고주파 전원 방식을 채용한 펄스 모듈레이터의 제어방법의 개선과 부피를 줄여 운전의 효율성을 높인 내용으로 발표하고자 한다.

The plasma display panel with the electrode structure of new discharge AND gate was proposed and the driving system for experiment was developed. And discharge AND gate operation was verified. Discharge AND gate operated by the operation speed of 8${\mu}\textrm{s}$ and the operation margin of 20V. It was known to be able to control the discharge of the adjoining scan electrode accurately. Because this method uses the DC discharge, the control of the discharge can be facilitated compared with conventional discharge AND gate. Moreover, because the input discharge and the output discharge of AND gate are separate, the display discharge can be prevented from passing AND gate. Therefore it is possible to app1y to the large screen plasma display. And the decrease of contrast ratio does not occur because the scanning discharge does not influence the picture quality.

In this paper, the effect of magnetic field on corona discharge phenomena was experimentally investigated in the needle-plate electrode geometry. Needle-plate geometry discharge system with magnetic field at a right angle to the electric field was made. The corona discharge characteristics with magnetic field were investigated and compared with the corona characteristics without magnetic field in atmospheric pressure. As a result, in case of positive DC corona discharge with magnetic field, corona discharge zone was significantly wider, corona current was lower, and breakdown voltage was higher than those without magnetic field. However, in case of negative DC corona discharge with magnetic field, corona current was slightly higher and breakdown voltage was lower than those without magnetic field. It is thought that this result is due to cyclotron motion of charged particles such as electron and ion by magnetic field.
