MVDC 배전기술은 현재 급격하게 도입되고 있는 태양광전원의 접속지연 문제를 해결하기 위한 효과적인 대안으로 평가되고 있지만, DC 배전망용 기기들을 개발해야 하므로 DC 배전망의 구축비용은 경제적인 측면에서의 문제점을 가지고 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 태양광전원의 수용을 위한 MVDC 배전망의 도입 타당성을 평가하기 위하여, 태양광전원 단지를 용량에 따라 규모별로 정의하고, 이를 수용하기 위한 배전망을 건설하는 경우에 대하여 규모별로 수용성 모델을 제시한다. 이 모델은 배전망의 전원공급방식에 따라 AC 및 DC 배전망으로 구분되며, 수용할 태양광전원 단지의 용량에 따라 수백 MW급은 대규모, 수십 MW급은 중규모, 수 MW급은 소규모로 정의된다. 또한, 본 논문에서는 AC 및 DC 배전망의 건설비, 전력변환설비의 교체비, 운용비로 구성된 비용요소와 태양광전원의 발전수익에 따른 전력량 요금 및 REC 요금으로 구성된 편익요소를 고려하여 MVDC 배전망의 경제성평가 모델링을 제시한다. 이를 바탕으로 현재가치 환산법과 원금균등상환 방식을 이용하여 MVDC 배전망의 경제성을 평가한 결과, 태양광전원의 수용 규모에 따라 일정 연계거리 이후에서는 DC 배전망의 구축비용이 기존의 AC 배전망보다 경제적임을 알 수 있어, 본 논문에서 제시한 경제성평가 모델링의 유용성을 확인하였다.

Research on aged insulation of cables by stress is constantly being considered for reliable and stable power transmission of offshore wind farms. This study aimed to evaluate the insulation characteristic of aged XLPE (cross-linked polyethylene) insulation for application of offshore wind farms. In this study, The XLPE insulation of cable was set as various mechanical strains. The XLPE insulation is exposed to the mechanical stress below yield strain of 5%, 10%, and 20%. Aged samples were tested by using the method of AC BDV (alternative current breakdown voltage), tensile strength, elongation, and SEM (scanning electron microscope) to obtain insulation characteristics. The experimental results show that the dielectric breakdown of the sample with a strain 20% was 50% lower than the unaged sample; thereby, demonstrating that the mechanical strain that occurred in the submarine cables can weaken the insulation characteristics. Therefore, mechanical strain should be monitored when laying and operating submarine cables for offshore wind farms.

This study examined carbon layer coating on silicon carbide (SiC) fibers by utilizing solid-state and wet chemistry routes to confer toughness to the fiber-reinforced ceramic matrix composites, as an alternative to the conventional pyrolytic carbon (PyC) interphase layer. Electrophoretic deposition (EPD) of carbon black nanoparticles using both AC and DC current sources, and the vacuum infiltration of phenolic resin followed by pyrolysis were tested. Because of the use of a liquid phase, the vacuum infiltration resulted in more uniform and denser carbon coating than the EPD routes with solid carbon black particles. Thereafter, vacuum infiltration with controlled variation in phenolic resin concentration, as well as the iterations of infiltration steps, was improvised to produce a homogeneous carbon coating having a thickness of several hundred nanometers on the SiC fiber. Conclusively, it was demonstrated that the carbon coating on the SiC fiber could be achieved using a simpler method than the conventional chemical vapor deposition technique.

This paper suggests another system for a cutting force measuring tool in a milling process. Generally, tool dynamometer is taken into account for the most appropriate cutting force measuring tool in the analysis of cutting mechanism. However, high price and limited space make it difficult to be in-situ system for controllable milling process. Although an alternative method using AC current of servo-motor has been suggested, it is unsuitable for cutting force control because of small upper frequency limit and noise. The cutting force measuring system is composed of two load cells placed between the moving table bracket and the nut flange part of ballscrew. It has many advantages such as low cost and wide range measurement than tool dynamometer because of the built-in moving table and the low cost load cell. The static and dynamic model of the measuring system using imbeded load cell is introduced. Various Experiments are carried out to validate both models. By comparing the cutting forces from a series of end milling experiments on the tool dynamometer and the system developed in this paper, the accuracy of the cutting force measuring system is verified. Upper frequency limit is measured by the experiment of dynamic characteristics.

Studying for environmentally-friendly and efficient energy source is now actively under way on because problems like environmental pollution and exhaust of natural resources are in issue. Pure Cell which is an alternative energy source has low voltage and high current characteristic, therefore boost up voltage converter and DC-AC converter is required to use as a common power source. In this paper, DC-DC converter which has high efficient and high power density is proposed and verified by experimental result.
