Harmonic current originating from electric locomotives can be magnified due to the impedance characteristics of power supply circuit and bring about various problems. That is, electromagnetic interference with communication lines, operational trouble in signaling, overheat and/or vibration in power capacitor, mis-operation in protection relay and so on. Therefore, the exact assessment of the harmonic current flow must be undertaken at design and planning stage for the electric traction systems. For these reasons, this study propose a new approach to model and to analyse traction power feeding system focused on system response to current and voltage harmonic(PART I ). Measurements of harmonics are also performed for railway power supply systems under normal operation. Spectrum and distortion analyses in measurement data are variously described in PART II

In this study, the effects of the current pulsing conditions, on the spatter generation rate during the $CO_2$ gas metal arc welding (GMAW) were investigated. Normally using the inverter type power supply, of which the welding current waveform was regulated to reduce the spatter generation rate, but in this study pulsing was imposed on the welding current. Observation of the metal transfer phenomena during the pulsed current GMAS indicated that the droplet transfer from the electrode via the short circuit transfer and the repelling transfer mode could be minimized by selecting optimum combinations of pulsing parameters, which include base and peak current, base and pak duration. It was also demonstrated in this study that proper combinations of the pulsing parameters led to reduce generation of spatters during GMAW shielded by $CO_2$ gas.

This paper utilizes free oscillation and energy injection principles to generate and control the high frequency current in the primary track of a contactless power transfer system. Here the primary power inverter maintains natural resonance while ensuring near constant current magnitude in the primary track as required for multiple independent loads. Such energy injection controllers exhibit low switching frequency and achieve ZCS (Zero Current Switching) by detecting the high frequency current, thus the switching stress, power losses and EMI of the inverter are low. An example full bridge topology is investigated for a contactless power transfer system with multiple pickups. Theoretical analysis, simulation and experimental results show that the proposed system has a fast and smooth start-up transient response. The output track current is fully controllable with a sufficiently good waveform for contactless power transfer applications.

For developing a 100 kW MCFC power generation system, Several design parameters for a fuel cell stack and system analysis results by Cycle Tempo, a processing computer soft ware, were described. Approximately 170 cells are required to generate 100 kW at a current density of 125 mA/$cm^2$ with 6000 $cm^2$ cells. An overall heat balance was calculated to predict exit temperature. The 100 kW power is expected only under pressurized operation condition at 3 atm. Recycle of cathode gas by more than 50% is recommended to run the stack at 125 mA/$cm^2$ and 3 atm. Manifolds should be designed based on gas flow rates for the suggested operating condition. The fuel cell power generation system was designed conceptually with several choices of utilization of anode exhaust gas. Also system efficiency was calculated at various type of system and operation conditions.

Small-scale reactors have recently attracted attention as a potential power generation source for the future. The Regional Energy Research Institute for Next Generation is currently developing a small-scale reactor called Regional Energy rX 10 MVA (REX-10). The current paper deals with a power system to be used with small-scale reactors for multi-purpose regional energy systems. This small nuclear system can supply electric and thermal energy like a co-generation system. The electrical model of the REX-10 has been developed as a part of the SCADA system. REX-10's dynamic and electromagnetic performance on the power system is analyzed. Simulations are carried out on a test system based on Ulleung Island's power system to validate REX-10 availability on a power system. RSCAD/RTDS and PSS/E software tools are used for the simulation.

In this paper, a communication module is proposed to be applied to communication between over current relay (OCR) agents in multi agent protection system. A multi agent system can achieve a global goal beyond the ability of each individual agent by working together, in which it is the prerequisite for each agent to be able to exchange or share information or processing status with other agent. The proposed communication module is purposed to enable not only each agent to bring about its own goal, but also the whole protective system to provide much improved coordinated protection. It is applied to a self adaptive protection system for a distribution network using multi agent concept to show its effectiveness.

In this research works, we propose a hybrid power generation system for drone capable of staying in the air for more than 1 hour. This power system converts the alternating current generated by the generator into direct current through a diode bridge circuit to charge the battery and uses a battery system having separated cells to obtain high controllability of the power system. The fuel efficiency and the power output for individual load were analyzed, and also the performance of a selected generator was studied in this paper. The drone which is equipped with the proposed hybrid power generation system calculated 0.82 ratio for weight vs power output, and flight time of drone showed 4,179 seconds.
