Among ground impedance measurement methods, the fall-of-potential method is the most thorough and reliable method. In the fall-of-potential method, ground electrode and auxiliary probes are placed in a straight line, and then, auxiliary potential probe is moved away from the ground electrode. The point at which plotted resistance curve flattens out is taken as right position of auxiliary potential probe. However, in some cases, it is hard to place ground electrode and auxiliary probes in a straight line. Therefore, we provided alternative placement method in this research. The method can be easily applicable to placing auxiliary probes. Also, this paper analyzed and compared ground impedance measurement standards of large grounding systems. Based on the analysis, practical measurement method using an earth tester was proposed. The proposed methods presented in this paper will be useful when determining locations of auxiliary probes in alternative positions, and the methods can be applied practically and easily.

This paper presents numerical analysis of measurement errors of ground electrode using the fall-of-potential method. In order to analyze ground resistance error according to the positions of auxiliary probes, firstly, national and international standards were researched. Secondly, numerical ground resistance error of hemispheric electrode was analyzed according to the locations of auxiliary probes and the angle between probes. Then, error-reduced positions of auxiliary probes were shown according to the distance to auxiliary current probe versus ground electrode size. Finally, error compensation method was presented. The results presented in this paper provide useful information regarding ground resistance error of alternative positions of auxiliary probes in case that the auxiliary probes could not be located at the proper position in such cases as there are buildings, roadblock or underground metallic pipe at that position.

The auxiliary feedwater is an important to remove the heat from the reactor core when the main feedwater system is unavailable. In most initiating events in Probabilistic Safety Assessment(PSA), the operaton of this system is required to mitigate the accidents. For one of domestic nuclear power plants, a design change of a turbine-driven auxiliary feedwater pump(TD-AFWP), pipe, and valves in the auxiliary system is implemented due to the aging related deterioration by long time operation. This change includes the replacement of the TD-AFWP, the relocation of some valves for improving the system availability, a new cross-tie line, and the installation of manual valves for maintenance. The design modification affects the PSA because the system is critical to mitigate the accidents. In this paper, the safety effect of the change of the auxiliary feedwater system is assessed with regard to the PSA view point. The results demonstrate that this change can supply the auxiliary feedwater from the TD-AFWP in the accident with the motor-driven auxiliary feedwater pump(MD-AFWP) unavailable due to test or maintenance. In addition, the change of MOV's normal position from "close" to "open" can deliver the water to steam generator in the loss of offsite power(LOOP) event. Therefore, it is confirmed that the design change of the auxiliary feedwater system reduces the total core damage frequency(CDF).

The effect of auxiliary electrode on the discharge characteristics in AC PDP with long sustain-gap was investigated. The auxiliary electrode was placed between scan and common electrode. When the pulse was applied to the auxiliary electrode during sustain period, the luminance of Ne + 13%Xe gas-mixture discharge increased and the discharge current decreased. The auxiliary pulse plays a role of improving electron excitation efficiency. When the auxiliary pulse was applied during address period, the address discharge time lag of Ne + 13%Xe gas-mixture could be reduced remarkably.

Most sentiment analysis systems count the number of occurrences of sentiment expressions in a text, and evaluate the text by summing polarity values of extracted sentiment expressions. However, linguistic contexts of the expressions should be taken into account in order to analyze sentimental orientation of the text meticulously. Korean auxiliary predicates affect meaning of the main verb or adjective in some ways while attached to it in their usage. In this paper, we introduce a new approach that handles Korean auxiliary predicates in the light of sentiment analysis. We classify the auxiliary predicates according to their strength of impact on sentiment polarity values. We also define compositional rules of auxiliary predicates to update polarity values when the predicates appear along with sentiment expressions. This approach is implemented to a sentiment analysis system to extract opinions about a specific individual from review documents which were collected from various web sites. An experimental result shows approximately 72.6% precision and 52.7% recall for correctly detecting sentiment expressions from a text.

The auxiliary renewal function has an important role in analyzng queues in which the either of the inter-arrival time and the service time of customers is not exponential. As like the renewal function, the auxiliary renewal function is hard to compute although it can be defined theoretically. In this paper, we suggest two approximations for auxiliary renewal function and compare the two with the true value of auxiliary renewal function which can be computed in some special cases.
