The optimal operation of power system is developed by alternately using real power dispatch and reactive power dispatch problem. The real power system scheduling process is formulated as an optimization problem with linear inequality constraints. A.C. loadflow method is used for the problem solution and line losses are considered. The constraints under consideration are generator power limits, load scehdling limits and line capacity limits. In solving the objective function the Dual Relaxation method is adopted. Tests indicate that the method is practical for real time application. The reactive power control problem uses the Dual Simplex Relaxation method as in the real scheduling case. Insted of minimizing the cost of power system, the objective is selected as to determine the highest possible voltage schedule. The constraints under consideration are the voltage limits at each node and the possibilities of supply or absobtion of reactive energy by generator units and the compensation facilities. Tests indicate that the method is practical for real time applications. The overall optimization methods developed in this paper proved to obtained fine results in minimizing object function compared with the method without using voltage control. And the overall voltage profiles were also improved.

Rubber parts are widely used in many applications such as dampers, shock absorbers, and seals used in railway and automotive industries. Much research has thus far been conducted on property estimation and life prediction of rubber parts. To predict the service life of rubber parts at room temperature, most prior work adopts the well-known Arrhenius model that needs the accelerated life test in high-temperature conditions. However, they may not reflect the actual conditions of use that rubber parts are usually used under a specific strain condition during long period of time. In this context, we propose a method for the life prediction of rubber parts in actual conditions of use. The proposed method is based on the accelerated life test using stress relaxation during which three relatively high elongation percentages (100%, 200%, and 300%) are applied to the rubber specimens. Rubber specimens were prepared in accordance with KS M 6518 standard and three stress relaxation testers were fabricated for actual experiments. Finally, a inverse power model for life prediction was derived from experimental results. The predicted life was compared with the actual test life for validation.

A controller design method for a battery-energy storage system using a linearized battery model is presented in this paper. The suggested linear battery model is expressed with open-circuit voltage having three relaxation filters and a linear output equation. A method to obtain on-line resistance and maximum available power is also presented. The battery state of charge information is obtained by Kalman filter, and its performance is verified by FTP75 driving cycles. The controller for power converter is designed and experimented with a 250 V battery pack. The proposed control method is simple and easy to apply to a real system.

Three activation methods (constant voltage, current cycling, and hydrogen pumping) were applied to investigate the effects on the performance of the membrane electrode assembly (MEA) loaded with PtCo/C catalyst. The current cycling protocol took the shortest time to activate the MEA, while the performance after activation was the worst among the all activation methods. The constant voltage method took a moderate activation time and exhibited the best performance after activation. The hydrogen pumping protocol took the longest time to activate the MEA with moderate performance after activation. According to the distribution of relaxation time analysis, the improved performance after the activation mainly comes from the decrease of charge transfer resistance rather than the ionic resistance in the cathode catalyst layer, which suggests that the existence of water on the electrode is the key factor for activation.

Relaxation phenomena of the electro-optic coefficient in ferroelectric copolymer P (VDF- TrFE) were studied. The electro-optic coefficient of copolymers was measured by simple reflection method and the decay curves were fitted by KWW stretched exponentials. The copolymers poled near Tc. Were shown to be more stable than the copolymer poled at lower temperatures. Further, the relaxation time t depending on temperature was found to follow Arrhenius behavior and it was found that the activation energy of 50/50 mol% P (VDF-TrFE) copolymer is larger than that of 72/28 mol% copolymer. As a result, the ferroelectric copolymer with VDF of 50 mol% is was more stable.stable.

Use of acetonitrile in electrolytes promotes better operation of supercapacitors. Recent efforts show that electrolytes containing acetonitrile can also function in a wide range of operating temperatures. Therefore, this paper addresses the dielectric relaxation processes, structure and dynamic properties of the bulk acetonitrile at various temperatures. Systems of acetonitrile were modeled using canonical ensemble and simulated by employing Molecular Dynamics method. Results show that interactions among the molecules were correlated within a cut-off radius while parallel and anti-parallel arrangements are observed beyond this radius at relatively high and low temperatures respectively. Furthermore, effects of C-C-N and C-H bending modes were greatly appreciated on the power spectral density of time rate change of dipole-dipole correlations whereas frequency shifts were observed on all modes at the lowest temperature under consideration. Linear variations with temperature were depicted for reorientation times and self-diffusion coefficients. Shear viscosity was also computed with a good accuracy within a certain range of the temperature as well.

Due to a low efficiency of phosphor with large Stoke shift in Vacuum Ultra Violet (VUV) excitation environment, new PDP phosphors which can be excited in UV excitation environment need to be developed. In this study, $Zn_2SiO_4:Tb$ phosphor was synthesized by solid-state reaction method at $1300^{\circ}C$ with varying Tb concentration, and its cross relaxation effect was observed by Photoluminescence (PL) measurement. In order to decrease $^5D_3{\to}7F_j$ transition with blue emission in $Zn_2SiO_4:Tb$ phosphor, Dy, co-activator element, was added to $Zn_2SiO_4:Tb$ phosphor. In 254nm excitation environment, broad-emission peak was observed around 524nm, green emission.

Unlike existent field flow fractionation, new method, osmotic sink field flow fractionation is introduced and used ultrafiltration hollow fiber membranes as separation channel. This hollow fiber osmotic sink field flow fractionation is called HF-OSFFF. A theory that describes the retention, relaxation, resolution, plate number for the system, has been developed and experimentally verified by separation model of po1ystyrene latex beads. At external field, it is measured that radial flow rates change according to various concentrations of PEG solutions. Concentration of PEG solution vs. radial flow rate is a linear relation. For diameter distribution of unknown polymer sample, HF-OSFFF compared with the commercial capillary hydrodynamic flow fractionation (CHDF).

An improved voltage modulation method (VMM) was used to control the heat release and adsorption properties of the adsorbent. In this work, the voltage and flux modulation methods were considered under unified experimental conditions of dissociative surface ionization (SI) of polyatomic organic molecules, the criteria were found when under VMM conditions the current relaxation of SI carries information about the kinetic properties of thermal desorption of ionizable dissociation particles arriving on the surface of polyatomic molecules. Conditions were found under which the relaxation of the ionic current in the flux modulation method is determined by the kinetics of the heterogeneous dissociation reaction of the original polyatomic molecules. The values of the thermal desorption rate constant K⁺ and the activation energy E⁺ obtained with VMM for desorption of (CH₃)₂NCH⁺₂ ions with m/z 58 by adsorption of imipramine and amitriptyline molecules agree well with each other and with the results for the desorption of the same ions by adsorption of other molecules. This confirms one of the basic conditions for the equilibrium process SI - the a degree (β coefficient) of the same particles SI on the same emitter surface is the same and does not depend on the way these particles are formed on the emitter surface.
