본 논문은 경제급전 최적화 문제에 개별 발전회사별로 독립적으로 경제급전을 수행하는 방법에 비해 중앙에서 통합하여 경제급전 최적화를 수행하는 경우가 보다 경제적임을 보였다. 이 경우에 적용된 알고리즘으로 밸브지점으로 발전량을 조절하는 균형방법을 수행한 후 발전량을 감소시킬 때의 비용 감소분과 증가시킬 때의 비용 증가분 차이로 발전량을 상호 교환하는 방법으로 최적화를 수행하였다. 10대, 13대과 40대-발전기를 독립적으로 운영하는 경우와 통합된 63대-발전기를 경제급전하는 경우를 비교한 결과 통합운영 방법이 독립적 경제급전에 비해 발전비용을 획기적으로 감소시켜 경제적인 이익을 극대화 시킬 수 있음을 보였다.

In this paper an application of centralized pitch angle controller for fixed speed wind turbines based wind farm to mitigate load frequency fluctuation is presented. Reference signal for the pitch angle of each wind turbine is calculated by using proposed centralized control system based on wind speed information. The wind farm in the model system is connected to a multi machine power system which is composed of 4 synchronous generators and a load. Simulation analyses have been carried out to investigate the performance of the controller using real wind speed data. It is concluded that the load frequency of the system can be controlled smoothly.

This paper deals with improvements to the special protection schemes (SPS) which have been applied to the low probability and high impact contingencies in the Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO) system since 2004. Among them, the SPS for voltage instability in the Seoul metropolitan area is considered in this paper, and is a form of event-based undervoltage load shedding with a single-step scheme. Simulation results based upon a recent event that occurred on 765kV lines show that the current setting values of the SPS have to be revised and enhanced. In addition, by applying response-based multi-step undervoltage load shedding (UVLS) schemes to severe contingencies in the system, more effective results than those of the existing single-step SPS can be obtained. Centralized and distributed UVLS schemes are considered in the simulation. ULTC-based load recovery models and over excitation limiters (OXL) for the KEPCO system are also included in the long-term voltage instability studies.

This paper presents a centralized control algorithm for power system performance in the Korean power system using Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) devices. The algorithm is applied to the Korean power system throughout the metropolitan area in order to alleviate inherent stability problems, especially concerns with voltage stability. Generally, control strategies are divided into local and centralized control. This paper is concerned with a centralized control strategy in terms of the global system. In this research, input data of the proposed algorithm and network data are obtained from the SCADA/EMS system. Using the full system model, the centralized controller monitors the system condition and decides the operating point according to the control objectives that are, in turn, dependent on system conditions. To overcome voltage collapse problems, load-shedding is currently applied in the Korean power system. In this study, the application of the coordination between FACTS and switch capacitor (SC) can restore the solvability without load shedding or guarantee the FV margin when the margin is insufficient. Optimal Power Flow (OPF) algorithm, for which the objective function is loss minimization, is used in a stable case. The results illustrate examples of the proposed algorithm using SCADA/EMS data of the Korean power system in 2007.

Under frequency load shedding (UFLS) is an effective way to prevent system blackout after a serious disturbance occurs in a power system. A novel centralized adaptive under frequency load shedding (AUFLS) scheme using the synchronous phase measurement unit (PMU) is proposed in this paper. Two main stages are consisted of in the developed technique. In the first stage, the active power deficit is estimated by using the simplest expression of the generator swing equation and static load model since the frequency, voltages and their rate of change can be obtained by means of measurements in real-time from various devices such as phase measurement units. In the second stage, the UFLS schemes are adapted to the estimated magnitude based on the presented model. The effectiveness of the proposed AUFLS scheme is investigated simulating different disturbance in IEEE 10-generator 39-bus New England test system.

Uncoordinated charging of large-scale electric vehicles (EVs) will have a negative impact on the secure and economic operation of the power system, especially at the distribution level. Given that the charging load of EVs can be controlled to some extent, research on the optimal charging control of EVs has been extensively carried out. In this paper, two possible smart charging scenarios in China are studied: centralized optimal charging operated by an aggregator and decentralized optimal charging managed by individual users. Under the assumption that the aggregators and individual users only concern the economic benefits, new load peaks will arise under time of use (TOU) pricing which is extensively employed in China. To solve this problem, a simple incentive mechanism is proposed for centralized optimal charging while a rolling-update pricing scheme is devised for decentralized optimal charging. The original optimal charging models are modified to account for the developed schemes. Simulated tests corroborate the efficacy of optimal scheduling for charging EVs in various scenarios.

This paper investigates the energy saving potentials of a dedicated outdoor air system (DOAS) applied to a highrise apartment building. As for a typical $132-m^2$ apartment unit, two different HVAC systems; centralized DOAS-Ceiling Radiant Cooling Panel and decentralized Energy Recovery Ventilator-Packaged Air Conditioner were installed. Transient behavior and control characteristics of each system were modeled numerically using a commercial equation solver program, and annual cooling coil load and heating load reduction potentials were compared. The research shows that DOAS-Ceiling Radiant Cooling Panel system can reduce the cooling coil load over 21% annually compared with the current Energy Recovery Ventilator-Packaged Air Conditioner pair. In addition, over 40% of annual ventilation heating load can be reduced by use of DOAS.

SIP(Session Initiation Protocol) 기반의 중앙 집중형 방식의 컨퍼런스 서비스 모델은 다른 모델들에 비해 컨퍼런스의 관리와 서비스가 용이한 장점을 가지고 있다. 그러나 구성 요소인 미디어 서버가 컨퍼런스 서버에 포함되어 구현되는 경우 컨퍼런스의 수 및 참여자의 수가 많아지면 서버의 부하가 상대적으로 커지는 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이를 개선하는 방법으로써 컨퍼런스 서버에 컨퍼런스 이벤트 패키지(Conference Event Package)를 포함시켜 컨퍼런스와 참여자들의 효율적인 관리를 담당하고 미디어 서버 기능을 사용자 시스템에 포함시켜 컨퍼런스를 처음 개설한 참여자의 시스템에서 처리하는 방식의 모델을 제안하고 구현하였다. 따라서 컨퍼런스 서버의 부하가 줄어들어 기존의 중앙 집중형 방식에 비해 보다 많은 컨퍼런스를 개설 및 관리가 가능할 뿐만 아니라 컨퍼런스가 개설된 이후의 참여자들은 미디어 세션의 성립을 위해서 단지 컨퍼런스를 개설한 사용자와만 호 처리를 수행하여 컨퍼런스를 진행할 수 있는 장점을 가진다.

A large number of service providers in countries all over the world have established GNSS reference station networks in the last years and are using network software today to provide a correction stream to the user as a routine service. In current GNSS network processing, all the geometric related information such as ionospheric free carrier phase ambiguities from all stations and satellites, tropospheric effects, orbit errors, receiver and satellite clock errors are estimated in one centralized Kalman filter. Although this approach provides an optimal solution to the estimation problem, however, the processing time increases cubically with the number of reference stations in the network. Until now one single Personal Computer with Pentium 3.06 GHz CPU can only process data from a network consisting of no more than 50 stations in real time. In order to process data for larger networks in real time and to lower the computational load, a federated filter approach can be considered. The main benefit of this approach is that each local filter runs with reduced number of states and the computation time for the whole system increases only linearly with the number of local sensors, thus significantly reduces the computational load compared to the centralized filter approach. This paper presents the technical aspect and performance analysis of the federated filter approach. Test results show that for a network of 100 reference stations, with the centralized approach, the network processing including ionospheric modeling and network ambiguity fixing needs approximately 60 hours to process 24 hours network data in a 3.06 GHz computer, which means it is impossible to run this network in real time. With the federated filter approach, only less than 1 hour is needed, 66 times faster than the centralized filter approach. The availability and reliability of network processing remain at the same high level.
