The pole transformer is one of the most important facility to insure the stability of electric power supply. which distributes electricity to customers directly. However there are a lot of defects which are caused by manufacturing fails(in 3 years) or deterioration (in 13 years), so we need a more improved transformer which insures quality. This thesis talks about the development of the new-type transformer using the hybrid insulation that is durable thermally, mechanically, and electrically. It would show how to lay out and produce the transformer using the hybrid insulation. And finally we are sure that we could increase the utilization rate of a transformer by 160% as compared with its own capacity through the overload test. Also, we carried out the examination about the short-circuit and insulation with a 100[kVA] model transformer, so that we expound the analysis of magnetic-mechanical forces intensity and the measure for improving short-circuit efficiency.

In this paper, we propose a novel pc-based 8-channel USB interface digital multi-controller (DMC) has capacity to be able to adjust ultrasonic motor's (USM's) the parameters-frequency, amplitude, phase difference using FPGA. The proposed DMC can control parameters directly by digital logic through a FPGA. Since it has counter circuit for rotary encoder to measure position and velocity of USM, the other separate circuits are unnecessary. Therefore, it could reduce the size of controller and the production cost. Finally, to verify the performance of proposed DMC, we tested the speed characteristic of two types USM with no-load as adjusting the parameters.

This paper reports an Integer-N phase locked loop (PLL) frequency synthesizer which was implemented in a 250nm standard digital CMOS process for a UHF RFID wireless communication system. The main blocks of PLL have been designed including voltage controlled oscillator, phase frequency detector, and charge pump. The LC VCO has been used for a better noise property and low-power design. The source and drain juntions of PMOS transistors are used as the varactor diodes. The ADF4111 of Analog Device has been used for the external pre-scaler and N-divider to divide VCO frequency and a third order RC filter is designed for the loop filter. The measured results show that the RF output power is -13dBm with 50$\Omega$ load, the phase noise is -91.33dBc/Hz at 100KHz offset frequency, and the maximum lock-in time is less than 600us from 930MHz to 970MHz.

In general, bus system consumes a very significant portion of power in a chip. Bus splitting can be used to reduce the energy dissipation and to reduce the Propagation delay on the bus by lowering the parasitic load of each bus segment. Data exchange probability distribution between a set of interconnected processing elements affects the average energy dissipation of the splitted bus architectures. In this research, we have developed tree-based bus splitting techniques and design methodologies, as an extension of horizontally aligned bus splitting. We have developed the methodology to select near-optimal bus architectures for low energy dissipation when data exchange probability distribution of a system is given. Experimental results show that the proposed techniques can reduce energy dissipation on the bus by up to 83$\%$.

In this paper, a highly integrated 3-channel DC-DC converter is designed using power transistor width scaling (PTWS). For positive voltage, $V_{POS}$, a boost converter is designed using the set-time variable pulse width modultaion (SPWM) dual-mode and PTWS to improve efficiency at light load. For negative voltage, $V_{NEG}$, a 0.5 x regulated inverting charge pump is designed with pulse skipping modulation (PSM) controller to reduce power consumption, and for an additional positive voltage, $V_{AVDD}$, a LDO circuit is designed. The proposed DC-DC converter has been designed using a $0.18{\mu}m$ BCDMOS process. Simulation results show that the proposed converter has power efficiency of 56%~90% for load current range of 1 mA~70 mA and output ripple voltage less than 5 mV at positive voltage.

Internal combustion generation (ICG) is used to supply power to islands due to geographical characteristics, but there are some problems, such as considerable operating cost, salt pollution, and environmental pollution. For these islands, KEPCO pays a significant amount of operating deficit each year, especially for the fuel and servicing costs, which account for a large portion of this deficit. Integrated ICG (IICG) through an offshore cable between near islands is being considered to decrease servicing costs. Distributed generation (DG) is also being introduced on the islands because of the demand for a low-carbon society. In hybrid internal combustion generation (HICG), DG is introduced into IICG, which can be applied because the DG output is insufficient due to environmental characteristics, and the IICG is used as an auxiliary power source. Therefore, this paper proposes an algorithm to estimate the optimal DG capacity that can be introduced in accordance with the KEPCO operating deficit in the HICG. According to simulations, the optimal DG capacity depends on the fuel cost and load capacity. The validity of the proposed algorithm was confirmed for multiple islands with different peak loads.

Since the fire accident of ESS (energy storage system) occurred at Gochang KEPCO Power Testing Center in August 2017, 29 fire cases with significant property losses have occurred in Korea. Although the cause of fire accidents have not been identified precisely, it should be considered battery and PCS (power conditioning system) as well as unbalance issues in the distribution system. In particular, circulating currents in a neutral line of a grid-connected transformer, which can affect a magnetized current, may have a negative effect on the ESS with unintentional core saturation and surge voltages at the secondary side of the transformer. Therefore, this paper proposes the modeling of the distribution system, which was composed of a substation, grid-connected transformer, and customer loads using PSCAD/EMTDC S/W, to analyze the phenomena of circulating current and surge voltages of the transformer with unbalanced currents in the distribution system. This paper presents a countermeasure for a circulating current with the installation of NGR (neutral grounding resistor) in grid-connected transformer. From the simulation results, it is clear that exceeding the circulating current and surge voltage at the secondary side of the transformer can be one of the causes of fire accidents.

The frequency dependence of the pyroelectric characteristics of $LiTaO_3$ have been investigated by using the dynamic method. In the frequency range between 2 and 1000 Hz, they are measured in both the regimes of pyroelectric current ($R_L=1M{\Omega}$) and pyrelectric voltage ($R_L=17.3G{\Omega}$), which can be selected by adjusting the value of the load resistance. Pyroelectric coefficient depending on the voltage response in the regime of pyroelectric current shows the maximum value of $1.56{\times}10^{-8}C/cm^2{\cdot}K$ at 40 Hz. The maximum values of figures of merits for the voltage response and for the detectivity are measured as $10.8{\times}10^{-11}C{\cdot}cm/J$ and $13{\times}10^{-7}C{\cdot}cm/J$, respectively. The voltage responsivity depending on the voltage response in the regime of pyroelectrci voltage shows the maximum value of 488 V/W at 2 Hz. Noise equivalent power and detectivity shows the minimum value of $3.95{\times}10^{-10}W/{\sqrt}Hz$ and maximum value of $5.6{\times}10^8cm{\cdot}{\sqrt}Hz/W$ at 40 Hz, respectively.

As a result of this study, we reached the following conclusions. With appropriate setting of oil pressure and flow rate, it operated same rotation speed with existing cooler by electrical transmission. In initial operation, a temperature of a cold storage is lower rapidly. As an internal temperature of a cold storage is lower, a decreasing rate of temperature is lower. As a result of comparing the both type, the cooler of oil pressure type showed the following results. The decreasing rate of temperature was more faster and shorter operating time was more shorter than existing cooler of electric type. The actual case of a cold storage, the cooler of oil pressure type can prevent quality deterioration and decrease power consumption. As an internal temperature of a cold storage is lower, power consumption increased rapidly, the oil pressure type showed lower power consumption. COP of two of these types decreased continuously as the internal temperature of a cold storage being reach setting temperature, and that of oil pressure type showed higher amount about 25%. As a setting temperature is lower, the number of refrigerator's operating times are less and operating time is longer, so power consumption is increased in the maintenance of a cold storage's internal temperature, power consumption of hydraulic type showed lower amount about 21~25% in two of these types.

In this paper, the PV system with a link to the commercial system needs some advantages like small capacity, high power factor, high reliability, low harmonic output, maximum power operation of solar cell, and low cost, etc. as well as the properties of inverter. To transfer the PV energy of photovoltaic power generation system to the system and load, it requires PCS in both directions. The purpose of this paper is to confirm the stable power supply through the load leveling by presenting the PCS considering ESS of photovoltaic power generation. In order to achieve these purpose, 5 step process of operation mode algorithm were used according to the solar insolation amount and load capacity and the controller for charging/ discharging control was designed. For bidirectional and effective energy transfer, the bidirectional converter and battery at DC-link stage were connected and the DC-link voltage and inverter output voltage through the interactive inverter were controlled. In order to prove the validity of the suggested system, the simulation using PSIM was performed and were reviewed for its validity and stability. The 3[kW] PCS was manufactured and its test was conducted in order to check this situation. In addition, the system characteristics suggested through the test results was verified and the PCS system presented in this study was excellent and stronger than that of before system.
