In this paper a robust controller using adaptive backstepping technique is proposed to control the speed of wind power generation system. To make wind power generation truly cost effective and reliable, advanced and robust control algorithms are derived to on-line adjust the excitation winding voltage of the generator based on both mechanical and electrical dynamics. This method is shown to be able to achieve smooth and asymptotic rotor speed tracking, as justified by analysis and computer simulation.

The simplified simulation technique for the best generation mix is developed and the studied results are described. The best generation mix over study time from the economic point of view can be easily constructed by this technique. Generator maintenance, the operation of pumpgenerator and LNG thermal generator with limited energy are simulated variously, so a role of each generator is also easily evaluated. Through parametric analysis, useful planning guide points are obtained for the best generation mix transition, nuclear power plant construction cost, ruanium cost , oil cost, coal cost and midnight factor in the study case corresponding to real power system size model.

This paper deals with the secondary excited induction generator applied to random wave input generation system. As it is preferred to stabilize the output voltage and frequency in the constant level, microcomputer controlled CSI connected to the secondary windings supplies the secondary current with slip frequency. For testing this method, the input torque simulator is constructed, according to the power flow analysis. The experimental and numerical results show the advantage of secondary excited induction generator system for the random input wave generation system.

A valid scenario generation is essential for model checking software. This paper suggests an automated scenario generation technique through the analysis of function called-by graphs and call graphs of the program source code. We provide the verification process including the scenario generation and show application results on the Trampoline operating system using CBMC as a back-end model checker.

A power generation systems are proposed to convert ambient mechanical vibration into electrical energy using cantilever-type piezoelectric materials. The vibration-based power device can be used for self-powered systems without batteries. This paper presents the theoretical analysis for the coupled equations of piezoelectric and structural motions and investigates the dynamic characteristics of the self-power system using transfer function method. The theoretical model is verified by the finite element analysis of the resonance frequency, the dynamic response of the structure and the sensor sensibility. Experimental results measured using a prototype system agree with the theoretical predictions. The system is shown to produce 34.5 ㎼ in average. Finally, we perform the optimal design for system variables to maximize output power.

This paper describes a novel automated analysis system for bellows of piping system. An automatic finite element (FE) mesh generation technique, which is based on the fuzzy theory and computational geometry technique, is incorporated into the system, together with one of commercial FE analysis codes and one of commercial solid modelers. In this system, a geometric model, i.e. an analysis model, is first defined using a commercial solid modelers for 3-D shell structures. Node is generated if its distance from existing node points is similar to the node spacing function at the point. The node spacing function is well controlled by the fuzzy knowledge processing. The Delaunay triangulation technique is introduced as a basic tool for element generation. The triangular elements are converted to quadrilateral elements. Practical performances of the present system are demonstrated through several analysis for bellows of piping system.

This paper presents the transient performance analysis of a micro-hydro Pelton turbine for the osmotic power generation using the commercially available computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code, ANSYS CFX. The detailed flow field in the micro Pelton turbine with a single-jet is investigated by the CFD code adopted in the present study. Predicted characteristic curves agree fairly well with measured data for a prototype Pelton turbine over the normal operating conditions. The computational analysis method presented herein can be effectively applied to the hydraulic design optimization process of general purpose Pelton turbine runners.

Generation facilities of the power system are mainly classified into large-scale concentrated generation and small-scale dispersed generation, but generation planning of the Korea power system has been focusing on the large-scale generation so far. Recently, however, applications of dispersed generation sources including solar cell, fuel cell, wind power, etc. have been rapidly increasing and being strongly promoted, and such generation sources should be comprehensively considered in both planning and operating. Since it is not always possible that the dispersed generation alone meets all the load interconnected to it is especially when a fault occurs, interconnection into the existing utility is desirable and recommended. In relation to wind power generation systems interconnected at the low and extra high voltage levels, this paper performs the simulation and analysis of the system protection and suggests protection coordination plans on various faults which possibly occur.

This paper aims to investigate generation conditions necessary for the most efficient generation by measuring electricity power under various irradiation conditions, since the photovoltaic generation system has high costs and low efficiency. This thesis aims to investigate generation conditions necessary for the most efficient generation by measuring electricity power under various irradiation conditions, since the photovoltaic generation system has high costs and low efficiency. Although the generation power increased with the irradiation, the former did not vary directly as the latter. This meant that the variation of the generation power was concerned in the temperature of a module, the ambient temperature, and the directions of irradiation as well as the irradiation. As for the monthly accumulated irradiation and monthly accumulated power, the maximum irradiation and generation power were observed in May and October and the irradiation, the power and the accumulated generation power were all the highest in spring, followed by fall, summer and winter.
