Distributed Control System has been used for large scale and critical system control such as aerospace industries, chemical and power plant and so on. It is very impotant factors for design of the control system to be reliable and fault-tolerant. These control systems have backup or redundant processing modules for minimizing the time of failure and improving reliability. But such methods have changeover duration from faulty module to healthy one. During that interval, feedback control loop raises bumper and performance of the system become worse. TMR(Triple Modular Redundancy) control system is one of the best reliable ones that can overcome such a mortal drawback. This paper analyzes the components of TMR system functionally and proposes practical and cost effective configuration method for turbine control of thermal power plant.

An artificial neural network(NN) technique is developed for hardware redundant sensor validation. Since the measurement space is a continuous space with many operating regions, it is difficult to train a NN to correctly detect failure in an accurate measurement system. A conventional backpropagation NN is modified to include an additional preprocessing layer that extracts classification features from scalar measurements. This feature extraction means transform the measurement space to parity space. The NN is independent of the state variable being measured, the instrument range, and the signal tolerance. This NN resembles the parity space approach to signal validation, except that analytical parity equations are unneeded and the NN pattern recognition capability is utilized for decision making.

수중함에서 전력시스템(PS:Power System)이란 함의 추진시스템 뿐만 아니라 함 내에 모든 부하들의 전력공급을 담당하는 매우 중요한 요소이다. 수중함에 있어 전력시스템의 고장은 안정성에 직결되는 요소이므로 이에 대한 분석과 신뢰성 확보는 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 수중함의 전력생산부에서부터 부하까지 전력이 공급되는 과정을 전기계통도로 표현하여 이에 대해 고장나무분석을 실시하였으며, 기본구조와 계통 여유율을 고려한 전기적 구조의 고장나무분석을 실시하여 이에 따른 구조변화를 비교한다.

The fire event occurred in fire proof zone often causes serious electrical problems such as shorts, ground faults, or open circuits in nuclear power plants. These would be directed to the loss of safe shutdown capabilities performed by safety related systems and equipments. The fire event can treat the basic design principle that safety systems should keep their functions with redundancy and independency. In case of a multi-core cable fire, operators can not perform their mission properly and can misjudge the situation because of spurious operation, wrong indication or instrument. These would deteriorate the plant capabilities of safety shutdown and make disastrous conditions. In this paper, the characteristic of cable fire is investigated and the heat-flux evaluation for cable fire is studied. Moreover, a diagnostic methodology for degraded cable in nuclear power plants is presented.

Most studies in the past in testing and benchmarking on Intrusion Detection System (IDS) were conducted as comparisons, rather than evaluation, on different IDSs. This paper presents the evaluation of the performance of one of the open source IDS, snort, in an inexpensive high availability system configuration. Redundancy and fault tolerance technology are used in deploying such IDS, because of the possible attacks that can make snort exhaust resources, degrade in performance and even crash. Several test data are used in such environment and yielded different results. CPU speed, Disk usage, memory utilization and other resources of the IDS host are also monitored. Test results with the proposed system configuration environment show much better system availability and reliability, especially on security systems.

2012년 태양광 인버터 시장은 유럽경제위기 등의 영향으로 성장률이 정체되고 가격, 효율 및 전력밀도에 대한 경쟁이 심화되면서 고효율 MIC와 개별 MPPT가 가능한 3상 스트링 인버터 차별화 기술 확보가 필수적이다. MIC의 경우 Interleaved Flyback Topology를 적용하고 최적 변압기 설계를 통해 연계 성능과 외함규격을 만족하고, 경부하시 Single Mode 운전 시퀀스를 제안하여 고효율 운전이 가능하도록 하였다. 또한, 유럽을 중심으로 수요가 증가하고 있는 소용량 3상 인버터의 경우 새로운 NPC2 Type 4Level Topology를 제안하여 넓은 사용자 입력 범위를 만족하고 무효전력 제어기준, 고효율 운전 및 Fault Redundancy 안전기준을 만족시키는 시스템을 구성하였다.

Most of engine control systems for helicopter turboshaft engines are equipped with dual sensors. For the system with dual redundancy, analytic methods are used to detect faults based on the system dynamical model. Helicopter engine dynamics are affected by aerodynamic torque induced from the dynamics of the main rotor. In this paper an engine model including the rotor dynamics is constructed for the T700-GE-700 turboshaft engine powering UH-60 helicopter. The singular value decomposition(SVD) method is applied to the developed model in order to detect sensor faults. The SVD method which do not need an additional computation to generate residual uses the characteristics that the system outputs in direction of the left singular vector if an input is applied in direction of the right singular vector. Simulations show that the SVD method works well in detecting and isolating the sensor faults.

In the case of a failure due to equipment deterioration in the public address system or a worker's mistake during construction, broadcasting becomes impossible. In this situation, we have designed a more advanced management broadcast system that can broadcast. The broadcasting service is operated using main broadcasting device, and local broadcasting device operates separately only in the local area. If the main broadcasting device becomes inoperable, the procedure for transferring the control activates the device with the local broadcasting devices based on data backed up by the main controller. This paper proposes an improved method of the conventional emergency broadcasting device duplication method. The existing method could not use the standby equipment in the normal state, but in the proposed method, the standby equipment can be used as local broadcasting equipment in usually. This method enables stable system operation while minimizing resource waste due to redundant configuration of expensive devices.

In 2019, the Korean government announced the 3rd Basic Plan for Energy, which included expanding the rate of renewable energy generation by 30-40% by 2040. Hence, offshore wind power generation, which is relatively easy to construct in large areas, should be considered. The East Sea coast of Korea is a sea area where the depth reaches 50 m, which is deeper than the west coast, even though it is only 2.5 km away from the coastline. Therefore, for offshore wind power projects on the East Sea coast, a floating offshore wind power should be considered instead of a fixed one. In this study, a response analysis was performed by applying the analytical conditions of IEC61400-3-2 for the design of floating offshore wind power generation systems. In the newly revised IEC61400-3-2 international standard, design load cases to be considered in floating offshore wind power systems are specified. The upper structure applied to the numerical analysis was a 5-MW-class wind generator developed by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), and the marine environment conditions required for the analysis were based on the Ulsan Meteorological Buoy data from the Korea Meteorological Administration. The FAST v8 developed by NREL was used in the coupled analysis. From the simulation, the maximum response of the six degrees-of-freedom motion and the maximum load response of the joint part were compared. Additionally, redundancy was verified under abnormal conditions. The results indicate that the platform has a maximum displacement radius of approximately 40 m under an extreme sea state, and when one mooring line is broken, this distance increased to approximately 565 m. In conclusion, redundancy should be verified to determine the design of floating offshore wind farms or the arrangement of mooring systems.
