Watertight 25.8 kV/600 A/12.5 kA fault current limiters (FCLs) have successfully installed in five areas (Incheon, Seoul, Gyeong-gi, Daejeon, Suwon) on KEPCO power distribution line for the purpose of commercial demonstrations. The fault current limiting operation of this FCL, which includes functions of sensing, commutation, and reduction of fault currents, is perfectly completed within 1 cycle immediately after fault occurs. The performance of FCL was verified by short circuit test, impedance test, insulation test, temperature-rise test, and control test, etc at PT&T in LS industrial systems, which is the official certification institute in Korea. In 2013, and also the FCL field test was performed in order to test the protection coordination between conventional relays and FCL, on the 1.5 kA and 5.0 kA faults, which were made by connecting the Artificial Fault Generator (AFG) to the distribution line in test grid at KEPCO Power Testing Center. The next step of this project is to check the FCL conditions caused by real external environment, and acquire the various data from five regions installed with FCL. In this paper, we intend to explain the FCL specifications and performance characteristics, and check the expected effect by application of FCL to power distribution line based on the power system analysis of an application site.

With the abnormal weather phenomena caused by global warming, the frequency and intensity of lightning strikes are increasing, and lightning accidents are becoming one of the biggest causes of failures and accidents in offshore wind turbines. In order to secure generator operation reliability, effective and practical measures are needed to reduce lightning damage. Because offshore wind turbines are tall structures installed at sea, the possibility of direct lightning strikes is very high compared to other structures, and the role of surge protection devices to minimize damage to the electrical and electronic circuits inside the wind turbine is very important. In this study, a varistor, which is a key element for a class 1 surge protection device for direct lightning protection, was developed. The current density was improved by changing the varistor composition, and the distance between the electrode located on the varistor surface and the edge of the varistor was optimized through a simulation program to improve the fabrication process. Considering the combined effects of heat distribution, electric field distribution, and current density on the optimized varistor surface, silver electrodes were formed with a gap of 0.5 mm. The varistor developed in this study was confirmed to have an energy tolerance of 10/350 ㎲, 50kA, which is a representative direct lightning current waveform, and good protection characteristics with a limiting voltage of 2 kV or less.

전력계통에 저항형과 유도형 초전도 한류기를 적용하였을 때 사고각별 전류제한 효과를 살펴보았다. S1 변전소로부터 S2 변전소까지 거리의 약 60%지점에서 사고가 발생하였을 때, 1선 지락사고에서 S1측 고장전류는 사고각 0 $^{\circ}$ 의 경우 약 39kA이었으며 이는 정상전류의 약 87배이었고, 5주기 이후의 전류값도 53배에 달하는 약 23 kA값을 보여주었다. 차단기 전단에 저항형과 유도형 초전도 한류기를 적용하였을 때 사고각별 전류제한효과를 보면, 사고각 0 $^{\circ}$ 인 경우 저항형은 사고발생 직후 최대 한류전류값이 최고 39 kA, 최종 한류전류값이 약 15 kA이었다. 이때 과도상태에서 직류분은 거의 발생하지 않았다. 유도형은 사고발생 직후 최고 39 kA와 최종 12 kA의 전류값을 나타내었다. 이때 직류분은 약 3 kA이었다. 2선 지락사고에서 고장전류는 사고각 0 $^{\circ}$ 의 경우 최고 약 56 kA이었으며 이는 정상전류의 약124배이었고, 5주기 이후의 전류값도 76배에 달하는 약 34 kA값을 보여주었다. 선로에 저항형과 유도형 초전도 한류기를 적용한 경우 사고각별전류제한 효과를 보면, 사고각이 0 $^{\circ}$ 일때 저항형은 사고발생 직후 최대 한류전류값이 최고 44kA, 최종한류전류값이 약 15 kA이었다. 이때 과도상태에서 직류분은 거의 발생하지 않았다. 유도형은 사고발생 직후 최고 44 kA와 최종 14 kA의 전류값을 보여주었다. 이때 직류분은 약 4 kA이었다. 1, 2선 지락사고를 종합해 보면 2선 지락사고가 사고전류의 크기와 유도형의 직류분 감쇄폭이 약간 컸을 뿐 전력계통에서 초전도 한류기의 적용은 같은 조건(초전도 한류기의 최종 임피던스100${\omega}$)하에서 전류제한 능력면에서는 유도형이 유리하고 초기 과도상태에서 직류성분의 발생측면은 저항형이 장점을 가지고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 아울러 앞으로는 quench 시간에 따른 전류제한 현상에 관한 simulation을 수행 하고자 한다.

본 논문에서는 배전계통 주변압기 중성선에 초전도 한류기를 적용할 경우 고장전류 제한 및 회복특성에 대해 분석하였다. 배전계통에 초전도한류기 적용위치에 따라 초전도한류기의 부담이 다르게 되며, 이에 따라 고장전류 제한효과를 포함한 건전선로에 미치는 영향에 대한 분석이 필요하다. 배전계통내에 초전도한류기의 다양한 적용위치중에서 주변압기 중성선에 초전도한류기를 적용할 경우 보다 빈번하게 발생하는 비대칭사고에 대해 효과적으로 고장전류를 제한할 수 있음을 모의실험을 통해 분석하였다. 이와 더불어 고장제거시 초전도한류기의 회복특성에서도 선로 각 상에 초전도한류기를 적용할 경우보다 중성선에 적용할 경우에 회복시간이 크게 감소되는 것을 모의실험을 통해 비교할 수 있었다.

Underground tunnelling is one of the sustainable construction methods which can facilitate the increasing passenger transportation in the urban areas and benefit the community in the long term. Tunnelling in various ground conditions requires careful consideration of the stability factor. This paper investigates three dimensional stability of a shallow circular tunnel in a layered soil. Upper bound theorem of limit analysis was utilised to solve the tunnel face stability problem. A three dimensional kinematic admissible failure mechanism was improved to model a layered soil and limiting assumptions of the previous studies were resolved. The study includes calculation of the minimum support pressure acting on the face of the excavation in closed-face excavations. The effects of the characteristics of the layers on the minimum support pressure were examined. It was found that the ratio of the thickness of cover layers particularly when a weak layer is overlying a stronger layer, has the most significant influence on the minimum tunnel support pressure. Comparisons have been made with the results of the numerical modelling using FLAC3D software. Results of the current study were in a remarkable agreement with those of numerical modelling.

A site survey in two apartment complexes and a nursery experiment were carried out in this study to provide basic data of the long-pending growth characteristics of major landscaping trees, such as Picea abies, Pinus parviflora, Metasequoia glyptostroboides, Magnolia denudata, Acer buergerianum and Acer palmatum. According to the main results, the survival rates were very low, reflected by the average survival rate of the four species was 95% at the nursery site. And, it was presumed that the site conditions of two apartment complexes for tree growth were very inferior to those of the nursery site, taking into consideration that the increment percents of growth factors of the tree species at the nursery site were relatively higher than those of the apartment complexes. The distribution patterns of the current growth factors of trees showed a normal distribution. The regression equation of breast diameter on diameter at root collar showed especially high predictability. And, it was thought that the most critical limiting environmental factors on tree growth at the apartment complexes were found to be alkaline pH caused by excessive Ca, high percent base saturation, insufficiency of available moisture content, bad drainage due to inferior soil texture, high soil hardness, lack of organic matter and shortage of cation exchange capacity in soil.

HC(hydrocarbon)센서는 최근 내연기관의 과도상태의 연소 효율 및 배기가스 저감 효율을 높이기 위하여 산소센서와 함께 연소제어 분야에서 많이 사용되고 있다. 현제 HC센서는 전기화학식 및 current limiting 방식을 많이 사용하고 있으며 이는 HC가스의 이온화를 유도하는 촉매를 매질로 하는 전기화학식 센서이다. 이러한 촉매의 경우 장기 사용 시 촉매의 열화 및 변형 등으로 신뢰도가 떨어지게 된다. 본 논문에서는 촉매를 이용하지 않고 HC 가스의 이온화를 위하여 고전압 하전방식의 hydrocarbon센서를 고안하였으며[1], 여러 배출가스를 통한 센서의 전기화학적 성능을 분석하였고 온도 및 HC성분에 따른 전류치 변화를 이용하여 이론적 계산식을 제안하였다.

Atomic layer deposition (ALD) provides self-limiting processes based on chemisorption-based reactions. Such unique features allow for superior step coverage, atomic-scale control in thickness, and surface-dependent reaction controls. Furthermore, the surface-limited deposition enables the artificial deposition of oxide and/or metallic materials onto the porous systems as long as the supply is guaranteed in terms of time in providing reactant species and removing the byproducts and redundant reactants. The unique feature of atomic layer deposition is applied to solid oxide fuel cells whose incorporates two porous cathode and anode compartments in addition to the ionic electrolyte. Specific materials are deposited to the surface sites of porous electrodes, with the aim to controlling the triple phase boundaries crucial for the optimized SOFC performances. The effect of ALD on the SOFC performance is characterized using current-voltage characteristics in addition to frequency-dependent impedance spectroscopy. The pros and cons of ALD-controlled SOFCs are discussed toward high-performance SOFC systems.

We demonstrate a simple pulsed $CO_2$ laser with millisecond long pulse duration in a tube at a low pressure of less than 30 Torr. The novel power supply for our laser system switches the voltage of the AC power line (60Hz) directly. The power supply doesn't need elements such as a rectifier bridge, energy-storage capacitors, or a current-limiting resistor in the discharge circuit. To control the laser output power, the pulse repetition rate is adjusted up to 60Hz and the firing angle of SCR(Silicon Controlled Rectifier) gate is varied from 30。 to 150。. A ZCS (Zero Crossing Switch) circuit and a PIC one-chip microprocessor are used to control precisely the gate signal of the SCR. The maximum laser output of 35 W is obtained at a total pressure of 18 Torr, a pulse repetition rate of 60 Hz, and a SCR gate firing angle of 90。 . In addition, the resulting laser pulse width is approximately 3㎳(FWHM). This is a relatively long pulse width, compared with other repetitively pulsed $CO_2$ lasers.

This paper was carried out to introduce flame retardant and antibiotic properties to polyester(PET) and polyester/cotton(P/C) blend fabrics. PET and P/C blend fabrics were treated by a paddry-cure method in the aqueous solutions of the finishing agents(JA 6034, JA 6050, DC-5700). The corona discharge technique was applied to increase the polar group of the polymer surface. The characteristics of the treated fabric were investigated by means of scanning electron microscope (SEM) and electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis(ESCA), and water penetration time, limiting Oxygen index(LOI), and K/S value were also measured. Wettability of the fabrics was increased considerably with the corona discharge treatment. ESCA was used to elucidate the surface chemical composition of the fabrics treated with the corona discharge. Relative Ols intensity increased and oxygen was incorporated in the form of -C-O-, -C=O, and O=C-O on the polymer surface. The current study indicated that corona discharge treatment was effective for modifying the polymer surface.
