This paper analyzes a resonant inverter to generate plasma. The resonant inverter consists of a full bridge converter, resonant network and reactor to generate a magnetic field for plasma generation. A plasma load has very distinct characteristics compared to conventional loads. The characteristics of plasma load are analyzed through experimental results. This paper presents the study on the resonant network, which was performed in order to determine how to achieve a constant current gain. Another important contribution of this study is the analysis of drop-out phenomenon observed in plasma loads which is responsible for unpredictable shutdown of the plasma generator that requires stable operation. In addition, the design process for the resonant network of a plasma generator is proposed. The validity of this study is verified through simulations and experimental results.

Insulation breakdown of water-cooled generator stator windings occurs frequently due to leakage of cooling water and absorption into the insulation material. Leakage and absorption problems of water-cooled stator windings are often found during regular preventive maintenance. To evaluate cooling water leakage and absorption, diagnostic tests were performed on two water-cooled turbine generators, which have been in service for 13 and 17 years, respectively. The test results of the measured electrical properties such as dissipation factor($tan{\delta}$), capacitance and AC leakage current for water-cooled generator stator windings with wet bars are reported in this paper.

A new generator excitation system using a boost-buck chopper as a kind of static exciters is proposed to overcome the lack of field forcing capability of the bus fed exciter under the input line fault condition. It increases or maintains the generator field current by boosting the field voltage in the case of the input AC line voltage drop during and immediately after a fault. The validity of the proposed excitation system is verified with the computer simulation. The generator stability according to the each difference exciter is tested using a commercial software package-CYME. The simulation results of the stability analysis on the generator with the proposed exciter is better than that of the bus fed exciter. This boost-buck chopper exciter can be simply implemented and controlled by the modern power electronics technology.

In this paper, a sensorless control scheme for a three-phase bi-directional voltage-type PWM rectifier in wind power generation system that operates without the input AC voltage sensors (generator side) is described. The basic principles and classification of the PWM rectifier are analyzed, and then the three-phase mathematical model of the input AC voltage sensorless PWM rectifier control system is established. The proposed scheme has been developed in order to lower the cost of the three-phase PWM rectifier but still achieve excellent output voltage regulation, limited current harmonic content, and unity input power factor.

In this paper, the PSCAD/EMTDC modeling of JeJu AC power system with wind farms will be discussed. And the modelling of the synchronous generator, exciter, governor will also be defined in the JeJu power system by using the PSCAD/EMTDC. At the same time the fault analysis and the power flow analysis in JeJu AC power system are presented to demonstrate the JeJu AC power system can perfectly simulate the real JeJu power system function. Through the simulation using PSCAD/EMTDC we have gained the same results compared with the results accomplished by the PSS/E. so the validity of the modelling for the JeJu power system by using PSCAD/EMTDC is confirmed.

Loss of excitation (LOE) relay is prevalently used to protect synchronous generator. The widely used method for synchronous generator LOE protection is a negative offset mho relay with two zones. The basis of this relay is identical to mho impedance relay. In other words, this relay calculates impedance by measuring voltage and current at the generator terminal. On the other hand, the presence of series compensation, changes measured voltage and current signals during loss of excitation. This paper reveals that the presence of series compensators such as fixed series capacitors (FSCs) and static synchronous series compensator (SSSC) causes a significant delay on the performance of generator LOE relay. It is also shown that the presence of SSSC causes the LOE relay to be under-reached. Different operating modes of the power system, the SSSC and also different percentages of series capacitive compensations have been considered in the modeling. All the detailed simulations are carried out in the MATLAB/Simulink environment using the SimPowerSystems toolbox.

In hydro-generator, a groundwall insulation of stator windings gradually deteriorates due to mechanical, thermal, electrical and environmental stresses. These stresses combine to result in loose windings, delamination of the stator insulation and/or electrical tracking of the end winding, all of which can lead to stator insulation failures. Conventionally, off-line tests such as partial discharge measurement, DC/AC current test and ${\Delta}tan{\delta}$ test has been used for estimation of winding condition. However, off-line test requires large power supply and generator outage. In addition, major cause of insulation problems such as loose wedges and slot discharges may not be found with off-line diagnoses. This paper describes the on-line partial discharge measurement techniques in the generator stator windings. The experimental results from the UIAM #1 hydro-generator confirms a optimistic application of on-line generator diagnosis method as a reliable tool for evaluation of winding condition.

In order to survey the radiation characteristics of pure line noise of unwanted noise from overhead high voltage AC transmission lines, a disk type gap noise generator was manufactured. Disk size which decides capacitance between the noise generator and earth was selected through preliminary indoor experiments and analysis by using surface charge method. The capacitance is one of principal parameters related to the injection of a proper noise current into lines. On the basis of the capacitance obtained from calculation, 5mm of space was given to the gap of the noise generator to be installed o test line and an aluminum disk of 60cm radius was made. The field experiments were performed with the noise generator hung on the Kochang 765 kV full scale test line. As the results, the useful data which can be used to analysis the radiation characteristics of noise from transmission lines were obtained. Those are the directivity of antenna toward the line, lateral profiles, frequency spectra, height pattern and so on.
