An air circuit breaker (ACB) is an electrical protection device that interrupts abnormal fault currents that result from overloads or short circuits in a low-voltage power distribution line. The ACB consists of a main circuit part for current flow, mechanism part for the opening and closing operation of movable conductors, and arc-extinguishing part for arc extinction during the breaking operation. The driving mechanism of the ACB is a spring energy charging type. The faster the contact opening speed of the movable conductors during the opening process, the better the breaking performance. However, there is a disadvantage that the durability of mechanism decreases in inverse proportion to the use of a spring capable of accumulating high energy to configure the breaking speed faster. Therefore, to simultaneously satisfy the breaking performance and mechanical endurance of the ACB, its driving mechanism must be optimized. In this study, a dynamic model of the ACB was developed using the MDO(Mechanism Dynamics Option) module of CREO, which is widely used in multibody dynamics analysis. To improve the opening velocity, the Taguchi design method was applied to optimize the design parameters of an ACB with many linkages. In addition, to evaluate the improvement in the operating characteristics, the simulation and experimental results were compared with the MDO model and improved prototype sample, respectively.

한반도 일원의 신기 지각변형과 현생 응력장의 특징을 규명하고 지구조적 형성 배경을 이해하기 위해, 제4기 단층과 발진기구해에 관한 기존 자료와 더불어 최근의 지각천부 시추공 응력자료를 종합하여 재분석하였으며, 마이오세 이후 동아시아 일원의 지구조 환경 변화와 지각변형 특징을 정리하였다. 한반도 남동부의 제4기 단층은 대부분 기존 단층대를 따라 발견된다. 또한 대부분 남-북으로 배열된 상반 서향의 충상단층의 기하와 운동특성을 보이며, 동-서 방향의 순수 압축응력 하에서 적절히 배향된 기존 약대가 재활된 특징을 보인다. 한반도와 인근 해역의 발진기구해 분석 결과, 내륙에서는 주향이동단층 또는 역이동성 운동감각을 포함하는 주향이동단층이 우세한 반면, 동해와 서해 연안의 경우에는 역단층이 우세한 특징을 보인다. 압축 축은 동북동과 서남서를 향해 수평 내지 아수평한 자세로 군집되며, 인장 축은 북북서-남남동 주향을 가지는수직의 대원 상에 배열된다. 시추공 내 응력측정 자료를 취합한 결과, 한반도 지각천부의 평균 최대수평응력은 동북동-서남서 방향으로 나타났다. 따라서 한반도 일원은 현재 광역적인 동북동-서남서 내지 동-서 방향의 압축력에 의한 압축구조가 발달중인 것으로 판단된다. 동아시아 일원의 광역적인 현생 응력장 분포와 비교한 결과, 이러한 동북동-서남서 내지 동-서 방향의 압축응력환경은 태평양판의 서향 저각 섭입과 인도-유라시아 충돌로부터 전파된 응력장이 중첩된 결과로 판단되며, 대부분 고각 섭입의 양상을 보이는 필리핀해판은 배호지역 내에서 인장 환경의 특징을 보여주고 있어 한반도에서의 영향은 미미한 것으로 판단된다. 이상과 같은 동아시아 일원의 신기 지구조환경과 지각변형은 약 5~3.2 Ma 경 태평양판의 이동방향과 섭입각도의 변화와 함께 시작된 것으로 해석된다.

The main objective of this paper is to design and test a new type of polymer ZnO surge arrester for AC power system of railroad vehicles. Metal oxide surge arrester for most electric power system applications, electric train and subway are now being used extensively to protect overvoltage due to lightning. Surge arresters with porcelain housing must not have explosive breakage of the housing to minimize damage to other equipment when subjected to internal high short circuit current. When breakdown of ZnO elements in a surge arrester occurs due to flashover, fault short current flows through the arrestor and internal pressure of the arrester rises. The pressure rise can usually be limited by fitting a pressure relief diaphragm and transferring the arc from the inside to the outside of the housing. However, there is possibility of porcelain fragmentation caused by the thermal shock, pressure rise. etc. Non-fragmenting of the housing is the most desired way to prevent damage to other equipment. The pressure change which is occurred by flashover become discharge energy. This discharge energy raises to damage arrester housing and arrester housing is dispersed as small fragment. Therefore, the pressure relief design is requested to obstruct housing dispersion. The main research works are focused on the structure design by finite element method, pressure relief of module, and studies of performance of surge arrester for electric railway vehicle.
