This paper presents the error factors of Fall-of-potential test method used in measurements of the grounding-system impedance. This test methods inherently can introduce two possible errors in the measurements of grounding-system impedance: (1) ground mutual resistance due to current flow through ground from the ground electrode to the current probe, (2) ac mutual coupling between the current test lead and the potential test lead. The errors of ground mutual resistances and ac mutual coupling are expressed by the equation in calculating grounding impedance. These equations were calculated by Matlab that is commercial tool using mathematical calculation. The results of calculation were applied to correct grounding impedance.

In this paper, a novel impedance tuner using a directional coupler is proposed. The design topology is analyzed by signal flow graph(SFG) and shows advantages compared with conventional single and double stub methods from the view points of easy implementation and wide tuning range, respectively. This impedance tuner consists of ten switches and its $2^{10}$ tuning points are distributed uniformly on the whole Smith chart. The measured maximum magnitude of the reflection coefficient is 0.9. And the fabricated impedance tuner has a wide bandwidth from 1.8 to 2.2 GHz. Using this impedance tuner, we did a load-pull measurement of a power transistor.

This paper describes the design and fabrication of high frequency ground impedance measuring system for assessment of grounding system for Lightning protection. The ground impedance measuring system has been designed and fabricated which makes it possible to assess the ground impedance by frequency ranges from 100 Hz to 1 MHz. The effective grounding systems having a very low impedance to electromagnetic disturbance such as lightning surges and noises in microelectronics and high-technology branches are strongly required. In order to analyze the dynamic characteristic of grounding system impedances in lightning and surge protection grounding systems, it is highly desirable to assess the ground impedances as a measure of performance of grounding system in which lightning and switching surge currents with fast rise time and high frequency flow. The measuring system is based on the variable frequency power supply and consists of signal circuit part, main control part, data acquisition and processing unit, and voltage and current probe system. The ground impedance measuring system can be used to assess grounding system during occurrence of lightning.

This paper presents a technique for contingency ranting using line capacity calculation method and outage distribution factors(LODF) which are established by generation shift distribution factors from DC load flow solutions. By using the LODF, the line flow can be calculated a ccording to the modification of base load flow if the contingency occur. To obtain contingency ranting, maximum power tansferred to the load is obtained when load impedance $Z_r$ equal to line impedance $Z_s$. ( $Z_r$/ $Z_s$=1) The proposed algorithm has been validated in tests on a 6-bus test system.

In this paper, the inertance tube is modeled by the distributed impedance model. This model is verified by the analytical solutions for the long tube without the reservoir. In this model the distributed impedace effect of the inertance tube is included and mass flow rate and pressure distributions are calculated along the inertance tube for various inertance tube lengths. Mass flow rate at the inlet of the inertance tube is also calculated by this model and compared to the lumped impedance method. Mass flow rate by the distributed model shows quite different behaviors from the lumped model when the operating frequency is high and the length of the tube becomes large.

This paper attempts to develop the algorithms and computer program for load flow solution and faults analysis of large power system by small digital computer. The Conventional methods for load flow solution and fault analysis of large power system require too much amount of computer memory space and computing time. Therefore, this paper describes the methad for reducing the computer memory space and computing time as follows. (1) Load Flow Solution; This method is to store each primitive impedance of lines along with a list of bus numbers corresponding to the both terminals of lines, and to store only nonzero element of bus admittance matrix. (2) Faults Analysis: This method is to partition a large power system into several groups of subsystems, form individual bus impedance matrix, store them in the storage, and assemble the only required portion of them to original total system by algorithm.

The source flow ripple and the source impedance in hydraulic pump are characteristic values showing fluid-borne vibration characteristics decisively. We cannot measure these two characteristic values directly, but can measure them by some indirect methods. One representative indirect measuring method is ISO 10767-1. The authors constructed a hardware and a software for the measuring method based on ISO 10767-1. Through the error evaluation of the measured results, accuracy of the measuring method using ISO 10767-1 was examined in detail.

천공요소는 자동차의 배기 소음기, 공조기의 소음기 등을 포함하는 다양한 소음계에 널리 사용된다. 일반적으로 천공요소 들은 평균 유동과 소음원이 동시에 존재하는 환경에서 사용되며, 평균 유동 및 관 내부의 음압 레벨의 변화가 천공 부근에서의 임피던스에 큰 영향을 미치게 된다. 천공요소의 임피던스의 변화는 소음기의 음향학적 특성에 영향을 미치게 되므로, 유동이나 음압 조건이 임피던스에 미치는 영향에 대한 연구가 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 정밀 계측 및 전산유체역학적 모형을 이용해 천공요소의 임피던스에 영향을 미치는 주요 세 가지 인자 - 스치는 유동, 통과하는 유동, 음압 레벨 - 들을 고려하여 임피던스를 분석하고, 그 상관관계를 밝혔다.

Wall shear rate or stress is believed to be a major hemodynamic variable influencing atherosclerosis and artery-graft anastomic intimal hyperplasia. The purpose of this study is to verify the effects of radial wall motion, artery-graft compliance and diameter mismatch, and impedance phase angle on the wall shear rate distribution near an end-to-end artery-graft anastomosis model. The results show that radial wall motion of the elastic artery model lowers the mean wall shear rates under pulsatile flow condition by 15 to 20 % comparing to those under steady flow condition at the same mean flow rate. Impedance phase angle seems to have small effects on the mean and amplitude of the wall shear rate distribution. In order to study the effects of compliance and diameter mismatch on the wall shear rates, two models are studied-Model I has 6% and Model I has 6% and Model II has 11% smaller graft diameter. Divergent geometry caused by diameter mismatch near the distal sites reduces the mean wall shear rates significantly, and this low shear region is believed to be prone to intimal hyperplasia.
