In Korea, power requirement has been increasing. But the large generation unit is hardly installed because of economic and environment problem. Therefore, the concern of dispersed generation system(DGS) is growing. The power distribution system is generally operated with radial type. The protection system is composed of one directive source. But power distribution system inserted DGS changes it to two directive source system. Therefore, the insertion of DGS has the problem of protection coordination. In this paper, we argue fault current affected by interconnected DGS. We analyze fault current flow affected by DGS placement. Then, we find protective coordination problem. Consequently, we study advance point for protection scheme of power system interconnected DGS.

Recently, there has been growing interest in utilizing distributed generation (DG). However, an insertion of DG to existing distribution system can cause several problems such as voltage variations, harmonics, protective coordination, increasing fault current etc,. The typical protection system of the existing distribution system is designed for radial network. But penetration of DG to distribution system changes existing unidirectional power flow to bidirectional power flow. Therefore, investigation to cover whole field of distribution system must be accomplished such as changing of protection devices rating by increasing fault current, reevaluation of protective coordination. This paper presents that PSCAD/EMTDC simulations was accomplished to analyze effect of DG on the distribution protective coordination. In addition, directional recloser-sectionalizer coordination are evaluates distribution system with DG by using PSCAD/EMTDC simulation.

Near-fault ground motions are characterized by high values of the ratio between the peak of vertical and horizontal ground accelerations, which can significantly affect the nonlinear response of a base-isolated structure. To check the effectiveness of different base-isolation systems for retrofitting a r.c. framed structure located in a near-fault area, a numerical investigation is carried out analyzing the nonlinear dynamic response of the fixed-base and isolated structures. For this purpose, a six-storey r.c. framed building is supposed to be retrofitted by insertion of an isolation system at the base for attaining performance levels imposed by current Italian code in a high-risk seismic zone. In particular, elastomeric (e.g., high-damping-laminated-rubber bearings, HDLRBs) and friction (e.g., steel-PTFE sliding bearings, SBs, or friction pendulum bearings, FPBs) isolators are considered, with reference to three cases of base isolation: HDLRBs acting alone (i.e., EBI structures); in-parallel combination of HDLRBs and SBs (i.e., EFBI structures); FPBs acting alone (i.e., FPBI structures). Different values of the stiffness ratio, defined as the ratio between the vertical and horizontal stiffnesses of the HDLRBs, sliding ratio, defined as the global sliding force divided by the maximum sliding force of the SBs, and in-plan distribution of friction coefficient for the FPs are investigated. The EBI, EFBI and FPBI base-isolation systems are designed assuming the same values of the fundamental vibration period and equivalent viscous damping ratio. The nonlinear dynamic analysis is carried out with reference to near-fault earthquakes, selected and scaled on the design hypotheses adopted for the test structures.

테스트 기술자들에게 아날로그 회로(또는 혼합신호 회로)의 테스트와 진단은 여전히 어려운 문제여서 이를 해결할 수 있는 효과적인 테스트 방법이 크게 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 time slot specification(TSS) 기반의 내장 전류감지기(Built-in Current Sensor)를 이용한 새로운 아날로그 회로의 테스트 기법을 제안한다. 또한 TSS에 기반 하여 고장 위치를 찾아내고 고장의 종류를 구별해 내는 방법을 제시한다. TSS 기법과 함께 제안하는 내장 전류감지기는 높은 고장 용이도와 높은 고장 검출을 그리고 아날로그 회로내 강고장과 약고장에 대한 높은 진단율을 갖는다. 제안하는 방법에서는 주출력과 전원단자등을 테스트 포인트로 사용하고 전류감지기를 자동 테스트 장치(Automatic Test Equipment)에 구성하므로써 테스트 포인트 선택과정의 복잡도를 줄일 수 있다. 내장 전류 감지기의 디지털 출력은 아날로그 IC 테스트를 위한 내장 디지털 테스트 모듈과 쉽게 연결된다.

최근 경제 발전으로 인한 전력 에너지 소비 증가로 발전선비의 확충이 요구되는 상황이다. 그러나 화석연료고갈 및 지구환경문제로 대형 화력 발전설비의 확충이 어려워지고 있다. 따라서 발전부지 확보가 용이하고 환경오염의 위험이 적은 분산전원에 대한 관심이 한층 더 고조되고 있다. 그러나 이러한 분산전원이 배전계통에 연계되면 전압변동, 고조파, 보호협조, 고장전류 증가 등의 문제를 일으키므로 이에 대한 적절한 연구가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 국내 22.9[kV] 배전계통에 다수의 분산전원이 연계되었을 경우, 각 계전기가 감지하는 고장전류의 크기와 방향성을 고려하여 고장 감지 및 고장 지점을 확인하는 방법을 제안하였다. 이를 기반으로 하여 배전계통 보호기기인 자동재폐로 차단기-구분개폐기 보호시스템이 상호협조를 이루기 위한 온라인 보호 협조방안을 제시하였다.

For OBC (On-Board Charger) and LDC (Low DC-DC Converter) used as essential power conversion systems of PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle), system performance is required as well as reliability, which is need to protect the vehicle and driver from various faults. While current development processor is sufficient for embodying functions and verifying performance in normal state during development of prototypes for OBC and LDC, there is no clear method of verification for various fault situations that occur in abnormal state and for securing stability of vehicle base, unless verification is performed by mounting on an actual vehicle. In this paper, a CCM (Charger Converter Module) was developed as an integrated structure of OBC and LDC. In addition, diverse fault situations that can occur in vehicles are simulated by a simulator to artificially inject into power conversion system and to test whether it operates properly. Also, HILS (Hardware-in-the-Loop Simulation) is carried out to verify whether LDC is operated properly under power environment of an actual vehicle.

Base-isolation is now being adopted as a retrofitting strategy to improve seismic behaviour of reinforced concrete (r.c.) framed structures subjected to far-fault earthquakes. However, the increase in deformability of a base-isolated framed building may lead to amplification in the structural response under the long-duration horizontal pulses of high-magnitude near-fault earthquakes, which can become critical once the strength level of a fire-weakened r.c. superstructure is reduced. The aim of the present work is to investigate the nonlinear seismic response of fire-damaged r.c. framed structures retrofitted by base-isolation. For this purpose, a five-storey r.c. framed building primarily designed (as fixed-base) in compliance with a former Italian seismic code for a medium-risk zone, is to be retrofitted by the insertion of elastomeric bearings to meet the requirements of the current Italian code in a high-risk seismic zone. The nonlinear seismic response of the original (fixed-base) and retrofitted (base-isolated) test structures in a no fire situation are compared with those in the event of fire in the superstructure, where parametric temperature-time curves are defined at the first level, the first two and the upper levels. A lumped plasticity model describes the inelastic behaviour of the fire-damaged r.c. frame members, while a nonlinear force-displacement law is adopted for the elastomeric bearings. The average root-mean-square deviation of the observed spectrum from the target design spectrum together with a suitable intensity measure are chosen to select and scale near- and far-fault earthquakes on the basis of the design hypotheses adopted.

Recently the development of design and automation technology and manufacturing method, has reduced the cost of chip, but it becomes more difficult to test IC chip because test technique doesn't keep up with these techniques. In case of IC testing, obtaining test vectors to be able to detect good chip or bad one is very important, but according to increasing complexity, it is very complex and difficult. Another problem is that during testing, there could be capability of physical and electrical damage on chip. Also there is difficulty in synchronization between CUT (circuit under test) and Test equipment〔1〕. Because of these difficulties, built in self test has been proposed. Not only obtaining test vectors but also reducing test time becomes hot issues nowadays. This paper presents a new test BIST(built in self test) method. Proposed BIST implementation reduces test time and obtains high fault coverage. By searching internal nodes in which are inserted test_point_cells〔2〕and allocating TPG(test pattern generation) stages, test length becomes much shorter.

This paper analyzes the improvement of the power quality by the reduction of the inrush current. We analyze the existing methods and simulate the segragated point-on-wave closing method selected as the proper method. And we attempts to use the resistive type Superconducting Fault Current Limiter(SFCL) to reduce the transformer inrush current. We simulate the various insertion resistances and analyze the voltage drop. All simulation are performed by EMTP. The simulation results show the validity and effectiveness of a SFCL application and the segragated point-on-wave closing method to reduce the inrush current and improve the power quality.
