In recent years, the induction machines are increasingly being used as self-excited induction generators (SEIG). This generator is especially widely employed for small-scale power plants driven by renewable energy sources. The application of power electronic components in the induction generator control (IGC) and the loading of SEIG using nonlinear loads will generate harmonic currents. This paper analyzes the propogation of harmonic currents on the SEIG with nonlinear loads. Transfer function method in the frequency domain is used to calculate the gain and phase angle of each harmonic current component which are generated by a nonlinear loads. Through the superposition approach, this method has also been used to analyze the propagation of harmonic currents from nonlinear load to the stator windings. The simulation for the propagation of harmonic currents for a 4 pole, 1.5 kW, 50Hz, 3.5A, Y-connected, rotor-cage SEIG with energy-saving lamps, have provided results almost the same with the experiment. It can prove that the validity of the proposed models and methods. The study results showed that the propagation of harmonic currents on the stator windings rejects high order harmonics and attenuates low order harmonics, consequently THDI diminish significantly on the stator windings.

Internet Data Centers (IDCs), which are essential facilities in the modern IT industry, typically have scores of MW of concentrated electric loads. The provision of an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) is necessary for the power feed system of IDCs owing to the need for stable power. Thus, conventional IDC AC power feed systems have three cascaded power conversion stages, (AC-DC), (DC-AC), and (AC-DC), resulting in a very low conversion efficiency. In comparison, DC power feed systems require only a single power conversion stage (AC-DC) to supply AC main power to DC server loads, resulting in comparatively high conversion efficiency and reliability [4-11]. This paper compares the efficiencies of a 220V AC power feed system with those of a 300V DC power feed system under equal load conditions, as established by the Mok-Dong IDC of Korea Telecom Co. Ltd. (KT). Experimental results show that the total operation efficiency of the 300V DC power feed system is approximately 15% higher than that of the 220V AC power feed system.

Due to the increasing of nonlinear loads such as converters and inverters connected to the electric power distribution system, and extensive application of harmonic generation sources with power electronic devices, disturbance of the electric power system and its influences on industries have been continuously increasing. Thus, it is difficult to construct accurate load model for active and reactive power in environments with harmonics. In this research, we develop current harmonics estimation method based on Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) with fast learning procedure for residential loads. Using data sets acquired from various residential loads, the proposed method has been intensively tested. As the experimental results, we confirm that the proposed method makes it possible to effective estimate current harmonics for various input voltage.

This paper presents an optimal capacity design of a Hybrid generation system based on economical evaluation for various loads. Optimal sizes of a standalone and grid connection wind- PV hybrid systems were designed for normal, residential and industrial loads using HOMER (Hybrid Optimization Model for Electronic Renewable). Their economical evaluation were performed and compared with a diesel generation system that covers the same loads. The results showed that the stand alone hybrid generation system can be more economical than a diesel generation system for long term operation.

This paper presents an application of genetic algorithms(GAs) for optimal configuration of distribution network. Three problems have been used to show how genetic algorithms are modified and applied. Solutions to the problems are found by minimizing the cost function which is directly related with balancing the loads. Simulation results show that genetic algorithms are technically feasible if they are tailored to meet the needs of real problems.

This paper discusses the development of electronic ballast for neon lamp as an application of a zero voltage switching high frequency inverter. Abnormal increase of secondary voltage due to grounded fault or partial damage of serial arranged loads is clarified and the protection circuit for this abnormal voltage increase is proposed. Also stable lighting condition for removing the unstable characteristics due to different load conditions is proposed.

The dynamic response analysis of closed loop control system based on probability for the intelligent truss structures with random parameters is presented. The expressions of numerical characteristics of structural dynamic response of closed loop control system are derived by means of the mode superposition method, in which the randomness of physical parameters of structural materials, geometric dimensions of active bars and passive bars, applied loads and control forces are considered simultaneously. The influences of the randomness of them on structural dynamic response are inspected by several engineering examples and some significant conclusions are obtained.

Recently, an electric vehicle (EV) has been become a huge issue in the automotive industry. The EV has many electrical units: electric motors, batteries, converters, etc. The DC distribution power system (DPS) is essential for the EV. The DC DPS offers many advantages. However, multiple loads in the DC DPS may affect the severe instability on the DC bus voltage. Therefore, a voltage bus conditioner (VBC) may use the DC DPS. The VBC is used to mitigate the voltage transient on the bus. Thus, a suitable control technique should be selected for the VBC. In this research, Current controller with fixed switching frequency is designed and applied for the VBC. The DC DPS consist of both a resistor load and a boost converter load. The load variations cause the instability of the DC DPS. This instability is mitigated by the VBC. The simulation results by Matlab simulink and experimental results are presented for validating the proposed VBC and designed control technique.

이동용 전자기기에 적용 가능한 유연성 전자모듈이 롤투롤 공정에 의해 개발되었다. 개발된 전자모듈은 모듈 내의 폴리이미드층이 유연성 기판 역할을 하고 그 사이에 동선과 이방성도전필름과 박막 실리콘 칩과 모듈의 봉지재 역할을 하는 접착재료로 구성된다. 개발된 유연성 전자모듈의 신뢰성을 평가하기 위하여 일련의 인증시험을 수행하였다. 시험수행 결과 열 습도 복합하중 조건인 오토클레이브 시험 후에 시편 모듈 내에 박리가 발생하였다. 오토클레이브 시험에서 열과 습기가 유연성 전자모듈에 어떤 응력을 발생시키는지를 범용 유한요소 프로그램으로 연구하였다. 열 흡습 복합하중조건에서 열과 흡습에 의한 영향을 분리하여 상대적으로 평가해 보기 위하여 오토클레이브 조건 중 온도조건에 해당하는 $121^{\circ}C$ 온도조건 만을 적용하여 해석을 별도 수행하고 두 결과를 비교하였다. 또한 비교 해석결과를 바탕으로 유연성 전자모듈의 고장메커니즘을 추정하였다.
