This paper presents a new simplified method for finding the multiple load flow solutions and through their solutions the voltage stability can be evaluated. Line flow($P_{ij}$, $Q_{ij}$) may be formulated with the second-order equations for $V_{i}^{2}$ in polar coordinates or two circle equations for $e_{i}$ and $f_{i}$ in rectangular coordinates. Based on this feature, multiple load flow solutions are calculated with simple works, results of multiple load flow solutions are used for sensitivity analysis of voltage stability. Also, in the case that reactive power sources is considered, method of evaluating the voltage stability is introduced. The proposed method was validated to 2-bus and IEEE 6-bus system.

Arc-furnace is one of the large loads in the electric power system. When the arc-furnace operates, it may cause a bus voltage fluctuation in the power system, because it consumes a lot of reactive power. In this paper, we simulated this phenomenon by using a PSAF program with on-site measured arc-furnace load. The simulated results show that the fluctuation of bus voltage adjacent the arc-furnace was varied from $4.3%{\sim}7.8%$ the normal voltage because of reactive power consumption by arc-furnace. Therefore, we expect this study will come into use as the basic information on the probability of the demand control

The purpose of this paper is to develop a VBC (Voltage Bus Conditioner) system for a DC DPS (Distributed Power System). The advantages of the proposed VBC system are as follows: 1) the storage capacitor use smaller value than the conventional capacitive storage 2) the controller requires only one sensor to both damp the voltage transients and maintain the storage voltage. The performance of the proposed VBC system has been simulated and evaluated by Saber package.

This paper deals with the electromagnetic loss characteristics of enclosures for a 24kV high voltage switchgear by using a finite element method (FEM). A study on the electromagnetic characteristics of enclosures for a high voltage switchgear should be conducted to minimize the size and the temperature rising of a switchgear. Generally, the enclosures made by stainless steel are used to minimize the eddy current loss caused by the transporting current in Bus bars due to its non-magnetic characteristics although the price of stainless steel is expensive compared with other metal for enclosures. Therefore, a switchgear made by stainless steel enclosures could be fabricated as a small size and are applied to a switchgear in urban substations. On the contrary, the switchgear enclosures made by steel could be fabricated with relatively cheap manufacturing price. However, the temperature easily rises due to the transporting current in Bus bars because steel is a ferromagnetic material. Therefore, the size of a switchgear made by steel enclosures is relatively massive and installed in rural substations. In this paper, the electromagnetic losses in the enclosures of a switchgear according to various enclosure thicknesses are calculated and compared with each other. Especially, we proposed a hybrid type enclosures for a switchgear made by stainless steel (top and bottom enclosure) and steel (left and right enclosure). It is concluded that the cost electromagnetic performance of applying the hybrid type enclosure is favorable to develop a high voltage switchgear.

Recently, an electric vehicle (EV) has been become a huge issue in the automotive industry. The EV has many electrical units: electric motors, batteries, converters, etc. The DC distribution power system (DPS) is essential for the EV. The DC DPS offers many advantages. However, multiple loads in the DC DPS may affect the severe instability on the DC bus voltage. Therefore, a voltage bus conditioner (VBC) may use the DC DPS. The VBC is used to mitigate the voltage transient on the bus. Thus, a suitable control technique should be selected for the VBC. In this research, Current controller with fixed switching frequency is designed and applied for the VBC. The DC DPS consist of both a resistor load and a boost converter load. The load variations cause the instability of the DC DPS. This instability is mitigated by the VBC. The simulation results by Matlab simulink and experimental results are presented for validating the proposed VBC and designed control technique.

This paper presents a method for planning reactive power compensation such as shunt capacitors and reacters so as to maintain bus voltage in acceptable range during steady state operation in power system. The algorithm in this paper decomposes the problem into reactive power planning module for the compensation of bus voltage and load flow module for adjusting the error resulted from the linear approximation. A planning technique is based on linear programming to minimize the amount of added reactive power compensation in each case. Transformer tap settings and generator voltages are adjusted to minimize the compensation. The constraints are the operation limits of the control variables and bus voltages. The result of one sample system is presented to confirm the practical use of the proposed algorithm.

Stability analysis is an essential work in the operation and planning of power system. There are two categories, direct method and indirect method, and indirect method calculates the trajectories of states by numerical methods. Popular method using explicit integration has relatively low accuracy, so a more accurate method is requested. By the consideration of bus voltage variation, Runge-Kutta 4th order method can be made more accurate, but this scheme need much computation time. Through three recipes, computational cost of proposed method can be reduced. So the proposed method has improved accuracy and slight rise in cost. the method was tested on the IEEE 14 bus system.

In recent days, the inverter is widely used at the industrial applications. In the range lower than 100[kW], IGBT(Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) is most widely used as the switching device. In that case of IGBT, the rising time and the filling time are very short(about $200[ns]{\sim}300[ns]$). Especially for motor control applications, the switching frequency is required to be increased for better dynamic performance of the drive. However, the higher switching frequency leads to the unexpected problem occurs such as voltage spike due to stray inductance in the bus at switching instant. In this paper, a new methodology for reducing the stray inductance existing in the bus that induces the voltage spike will be presented.

At present, application of PSS/E input data for power flow , stability and fault analysis consist of only 154kV and over data(except 22.9kV data). 22.9kV(5.C) Static Condenser is in operation and installation at 22.9kV Bus of 154kV Substation. however, we assume that 22.9kV 5.C install at 154kV Bus. so, we need to study and search about critical limit for 154kV Bus standard operating Voltage according to 22.9kV 5.C Modeling Site by PSS/E Ver28
