At present, electric power industry around the world are being gradually changed to a new paradigm, such as electrical energy storage system, the wireless power transmission. Demand for ESS, the core technology of the new paradigm, has been growing worldwide. However, it is essential to estimate the optimal capacity of ESS facilities for frequency regulation because the benefit would be saturated in accordance with the investment moment and the increase of total invested capacity of ESS facilities. Hence, in this paper, the annual optimal mathematical investment model is proposed to estimate the optimal capacity and to establish investment plan of ESS facility for frequency regulation. The optimal mathematical investment model is newly established for each season, because the construction period is short and the operation effect for the load by seasons is different unlike previous the mathematical investment model. Additionally, the marginal operating cost is found by new mathematical operation model considering no-load cost and start-up cost as step functions improving the previous mathematical operation model. ESS optimal capacity is established by use value in use iterative methods. In this case, ESS facilities cost is used in terms of the value of the beginning of the year.

High-voltage power systems operate in order to generate and transmit electric power at power stations. Compared to low-power systems, high-power systems are complex in structure, large-scale, and expensive. When high-power cable accidents occur, most facilities are incapacitated-including low-power systems-causing huge economic losses. Great care must therefore be taken in designing, installing and managing power systems. Although dependent on installation circumstances and usage conditions, in some cases the cross-sectional areas of cables fall short of the critical area due to the expansion of and improper design and installation of power facilities. In this situation, the exceeded ampacity (allowable current) above the critical value caused by the operating current initiates the deterioration processes of power cables. In order to systematically monitor power cables operating at power stations, we have developed the first device of its kind in Korea. In this paper, we present the analyzed characteristics of expected temperatures of cables based on the load current of high-voltage cables operating at Korean Western Power Co. Ltd. We can predict the lifetime of cables by analyzing the temperature obtained from our device.

In recent years, many researches for DC power distributed system (PDS) are being preformed and the importance of the DC PDS is more and more emphasized. Furthermore, in the railway system, the DC PDS is used in subway station lighting, facilities, etc. In the DC PDS, DC bus voltage instability may be occurred by the operation of multiple parallel loads such as pulsed power load, motor drive system, and constant power loads. Thus, good quality and high reliability for electric power are required and voltage bus conditioner (VBC) may be used the DC PDS. The VBC is a DC/DC converter for mitigation of the bus transients. In this paper, adaptive controller is designed. The simulation results by PSIM are presented for validating the proposed control algorithm.

A strong need to improve the quality of electric power is increased because of increasing use of the sensitive and small-sized electronic devices. The surges on the low-voltage ac power lines are induced by nearby lightning return strokes, and the facilities for HA, OA, FA, ME as well as computer are easily damaged by high-voltage transients. The behaviors of lightning surge characteristics transferred from the primary winding to the secondary winding in distribution transformers using a Marx generator were experimentally investigated. The transfer characteristics of lightning surge associated with a custom service ground of secondary side were also examined.

The snow melting system by electric heating wires which is adopted in this research is a part of road facilities to keep surface temperature of the road higher than freezing point of water for melting the snow accumulated on it. The electric heating wires are buried under paved road at a certain depth and operated automatically and manually. Design theory, amount of heating, and installation standard vary according to economic situation, weather condition, installation place and each country applying the system. A main purpose of this study is figuring out the appropriate range of required heat capacity and installation depth and pitch for solving snowdrifts and freezing problems with minimum electric power consumption. This study was performed under the ambient air temperature($-2^{\circ}C$, $-5^{\circ}C$), the pitches of the electric heating wires(200 mm, 300 mm), heating value($250\;W/m^2$, $300\;W/m^2$, $350\;W/m^2$).

The harmonic current originated from electric cars will be cause of electromagnetic interference along adjacent communication cables and troubles with signaling. It will also cause overheating in power capacitor and malfuction in protection relay. Therefore, it brought actual measurement of harmonic current by each operation mode. Because the result exceeded the value prescribed by Korea Electric Power Corporation, we constructed facilities reducing harmonic current on overloaded part at each power supply station located in conventional line (Guro, Kyungsan, and Milyang) as an optimal alternative. Then, this study compared and analyzed the reducing effect before and after constructing facility.

The generation of electric power and plant facilities have been attempting to improve energy efficiency with many efforts as those being basis of our country's economy. In particular, the CHP(Combined Heat Power plant) system, is producing the electricity and process steam, has generally been using for the cogeneration plants. When CHP system operates, the steam has to maintain the high temperature and high pressure in order to have high efficiency of electric power production as much as possible. In addition, the exhausted steam from the turbine has to reform proper temperature to use the needed process. The major purpose of desuperheater is that the superheated steam changes into the saturated steam because it is more efficient and suitable for using the process, furthermore, it is more convenient and stable regarding the process temperature control. The design of the desuperheater obtained through the experiment and preceding analysis. This paper is verified by analysis that water spray nozzle(${\Phi}$=28mm) shows the best ability under the real power plant condition.

effluents to the environment. The activity of carbon-14, one of the radioactive effluents, in the environment is already high level and its effect on radiation exposure to the public and the environment is insignificant; thus, NPPs did not perform the carbon-14 monitoring in effluents in the past. By the way, effluents of noble gas and particulate radioactive materials originated from nuclear fuels has been continuously reduced due to both the advancement of manufacturing and integrity technology for nuclear fuels and the improvement of operation methods of NPPs. Futhermore, the portion of dose assessment by tritium and carbon-14 to the public has been relatively increased because the lower limit of detection for low-energy beta sources, such as tritium and carbon-14, is low due to the advancement of radiation detection technology. In this paper, the technical background for carbon-14 monitoring in nuclear facilities was investigated using United States technical reports and papers. This paper also reviews whether carbon-14 monitoring is necessary or not based on the investigated documents.

A blasting noise generated by blasting work, which is a kind of shock-noise, influences the human body. A civil appeal due to blasting noise causes work discontinuance and downsizing of a blasting scale. Most of soundproof facilities for reducing a blasting noise is installed at each working spot by itself and the degree of a noise reduction is very low. The aim of this study is to recommend a technology on noise reduction considering the method and material of soundproof facilities. As the first study step to acquire basic data, investigations on the installation time, installation method, and material of the soundproof facilities have been done at about 20 tunnel work spots such as railroad tunnel, road tunnel, tunnel for electric power.
