The loss of offsite power test was successfully performed on YGN 4 to demonstrate that the reactor can be shutdown and the RCS can be maintained in a hot standby condition following a loss of all offsite Alternating Current (AC) power. Following the loss of main generator and all offsite AC power, the ensile emergency diesel generators were automatically started and the plant was stabilized via natural circulation. Plant conditions were maintained in hot standby for at least 30 minutes before offsite power was restored. Thus, the capability of equipment, controls and instrumentation necessary to remove decay heat from the core using only ensile emergency power was demonstrated, thereby satisfying all objectives and acceptance criteria of the test.

A mirror-in-slab waveguide is fabricated on a slab waveguide by using the refractive-index contrast between two materials, with the reflection performance depending on the slab waveguide's design. In this research, a slab waveguide design consisting of silicon (Si) as the core and SiO2 as the substrate was designed and developed to determine the coupling, waveguide, and mirror losses. Based on experimental results, coupling loss is dominant and is affected by the design of the slab waveguide. Furthermore, the mirror loss is affected by the design of the mirror, such as the curvature radius and the size of the mirror. TE and TM polarizations of light are used in the measurements. The experimental results show that mirror losses due to reflection by mirrors are 0.011 dB/mirror and 0.007 dB/mirror for TE and TM polarizations respectively. A simulation was performed to confirm whether the size of mirror is sufficient to reflect the input light, and to check the quality of the surfaces of fabricated mirrors.

We proposed a two-mode fiber (TMF) design that can effectively reduce the mode overlap between $LP_{01}$ and $LP_{11}$ modes by using a W-shaped index profile core structure, which is a primary concern in uncoupled mode division multiplexing (MDM). TMF has a three-layered core structure; central circular core, inner cladding, and outer ring core. We confirmed that in an optimal structure the $LP_{01}$ mode was highly confined to the central core while the $LP_{11}$ mode was guided along the outer ring core to result in a minimum overlap integral. We used a full-vectorial finite element method to estimate effective index, differential group delay (DGD), confinement loss, chromatic dispersion, and mode overlap controlling the parameters of the W-shaped structure. The optimized W-profile fiber provided optical characteristics within the ITU-T recommended standards over the entire C+L band.

The occurrence of ferroresonance in electrical systems including nonlinear inductors such as transformers will bring a lot of malicious damages. The intense ferromagnetic saturation of the iron core is the most influential factor in ferroresonance that makes nonsinusoidal current and voltage. So the nonlinear behavior modeling of the magnetic core is the most important challenge in the study of ferroresonance. In this paper, the ferroresonance phenomenon is investigated in a single phase transformer using the finite element method and considering the hysteresis loop. Jiles-Atherton (JA) inverse vector model is used for modeling the hysteresis loop, which provides the accurate nonlinear model of the transformer core. The steady-state analysis of ferroresonance is done while considering different capacitors in series with the no-load transformer. The accurate results from copper losses and iron losses are extracted as the most important specifications of transformers. The validity of the simulation results is confirmed by the corresponding experimental measurements.

Parametric studies were performed to assess the sensitivity in determining the maximum in-vessel heat removal capability from the core material relocated into the lower plenum of the reactor pressure vessel (RPV）during a core melt accident. A fraction of the sensible heat can be removed during the molten jet delivery from the core to the lower plenum, while the remaining sensible heat and the decay heat can be transported by rather complex mechanisms of the counter-current flow limitation (CCFL) and the critical heat flux (CHF）through the irregular, hemispherical gap that may be formed between the freezing oxidic debris and the overheated metallic RPV wall. It is shown that under the pressurized condition of 10MPa with the sensible heat loss being 50% for the reactors considered in this study, i.e. TMI-2, KORI-2 like, YGN-3&4 like and KNGR like reactors, the heat removal through the gap cooling mechanism was capable of ensuring the RPV integrity as much as 30% to 40% of the total core mass was relocated to the lower plenum. The sensitivity analysis indicated that the cooling rate of debris coupled with the sensible heat loss was a significant factor The newly proposed heat removal capability map (HRCM) clearly displays the critical factors in estimating the maximum heat removal from the debris in the lower plenum. This map can be used as a first-principle engineering tool to assess the RPV thermal integrity during a core melt accident. The predictive model also provided ith a reasonable explanation for the non-failure of the test vessel in the LAVA experiments performed at the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI), which apparently indicated a cooling effect of water ingression through the debris-to-vessel gap and the intra-debris pores and crevices.

The flat transformer, typically, has a number of parallel single turn secondary windings. Each secondary winding is coupled to the same primary winding. Therefore, the current in each secondary winding is equal to the ampere-turns in the primary winding, and to each other. These characteristics are particularly advantageous where parallel rectifiers are used. The windings share the current equally, with no need for ballast resistors or other added components. In this study, the ferrite magnetic core samples of Mn-Zn system for the Flat transformer are manufactured and the electrical and magnetic characteristics of its tested. The density of sample FO2-2 sintered at $1350^{\circ}C$ is $4.00kg/m^3$, which shows the good microstructural state. The initial permeability and saturation flux density of FO2 at room temperature is 2700 and 510mT, individually. The power loss of FO2 samples at 250kHz have been ranged $350kW/m^3$ to $80kW/m^3$ with temperature. And the minimum power loss of sample FO2-2 showed at $70^{\circ}C$, which property seems very positive to apply for a flat transformer.

This paper deals with the effect of the auxiliary pole core in the automotive starter motor on its characteristics. This motor is excited by the permanent magnet and has auxiliary pole core in the stator. The auxiliary pole core is a device to increase the effective flux to obtain the starling torque and prevent the demagnetization of the permanent magnet from the starting current. It Is important to design the auxiliary pore core. And overhang structure causes the electromagnetic phenomenon of 3-dimensional flux Path. Therefore. the characteristic analysis is achieved by the 2-dimensional Finite Element Method (FEM) with the compensated model and the 3-dimensional Equivalent Magnet Circuit Network (3D EMCN). The mechanical loss and the brush and coil resistance are separated from the various experiment of the tested motor, and then these factor are reflected on the analysis results. The validity of the proposed analysis method is verified by comparing the experimental and analysis results. The effects of the design parameters related to the auxiliary pole cote on the motor performance are analyzed by the proposed method.

This paper introduces the high efficiency operation of switched reluctance generator (SRG). The proposed SRG operates under the rated speed. The high efficiency can be obtained by the optimal current shape which can make the total losses minimum. For this purpose, theoretical analysis of the copper and core loss is done. In addition, a modified angle position control (MAPC) method which can get the optimal current shape over wide speed condition is presented. In order to verity the theory, the experimental platform is set up. The feasibility of the theory is verified by the simulation and experimental results. The proposed method is simple, reliable and easy to achieve.
