This paper deals with the operating characteristics of induction motors with broken rotor bar, stator winding inter-turn short and their complex fault conditions. The considered operating characteristics are phase current, torque and speed. Since the operating characteristics of induction motors are directly related to their slip conditions, this paper built the experimental set to adjust the speed of induction motor with a permanent magnet synchronous generator connected to a load bank. From the various experimental results, it is shown that the faults do not highly affect on the operating characteristics of induction motors in low slip conditions, but the fault characteristics can be easily found in larger slip conditions.

During severe emergencies which result in insufficient generation to meet load, an automatic load shedding method considering the spinning and operating reserve can establish the optimum system operation. This paper presents methods and results of a study on the optimum operating scheme with spinning and operating reserve power in case of outage of large generator units to prevent frequency decay and continue stable operation. This study covers following three parts 1) Analysis of spinning reserve characteristics 2) Determination of operating reserve requirements 3) Development of the optimum load shedding programs By this study the optimum system operating method was recommended for reliable operation of power system.

Concerns over reliability assessments of the main components in nuclear power plants (NPPs) related to aging and continuous operation have increased. The conventional reliability assessment for main components uses experimental correlations under general conditions. Most NPPs have been operating in Korea for a long time, and it is predictable that NPPs operating for the same number of years would show varying extent of aging and degradation. The conventional reliability assessment does not adequately reflect the characteristics of an individual plant. Therefore, the reliability of individual components and an individual plant was estimated according to operating data and conditions. It is essential to reflect aging as a characteristic of individual NPPs, and this is performed through prognostics. To handle this difficulty, in this paper, the general path model/Bayes, a data-based prognostic method, was used to update the reliability estimated from the generic database. As a case study, the authors consider the aging for steam generator tubes in NPPs and demonstrate the suggested methodology with data obtained from the probabilistic algorithm for the steam generator tube assessment program.

This paper deals with a wound-field synchronous machines(WFSM), with an electromagnet on its salient rotor, as an alternative to a permanent magnet in the rotor. We then examine the power performance characteristics, loss characteristics, V-curves and large short-circuit ratios for a large-scale synchronous generator, considering the leading and lagging operations, based on the finite-element method. We predict the performance of a 100MVA-class generator based on the operating range for a constant short-circuit ratio. At the last, We compared with the electromagnetic characteristics of three model according to number of slots.

There are many kinds of motors operating by rated voltage which is constant. In this paper, the characteristics of separately excited direct current motor is analyzed when its terminal voltage is varied as its load current. As for this source, direct current generator of a series field is used, and it is driven at constant speed by a primemover. The induced voltage of the generator is propotional to its load current but it saturates as its load current is large. The charateristics of motor is studied by analog computer because of the nonlinearity of generator. The results are as follows: (1) The load current and the rotor speed of motor increase as the load of motor increases. But the speed of rotor decreases for the influence of the saturation of the iron of generator field when its load current is large. (2) Decreasing the inertia of motor and increasing the inductance of the armature circuit improve the stability of motor and the region of stable state. (3) By changing the field current of the motor, the speed and the direction of rotor can be controlled in wide range.

The paper discuses characteristics of an axial-flux permanent-magnet generator for a gearless wind energy system which aims to be satisfied with variable operating conditions. Design and construction of an axial-flux permanent- magnet generator with power output at 60[Hz], 300[r/min] for wind energy system is introduced. Finite-element method (FEM) is applied to analyze generator performance at variable load. The results of FE analysis show this generator Is feasible for use with a wind turbine.

Induction generator is always required reactive power in order to generate a rotating magnetic field as an inductive load. The reactive power must be continuously supplied to the induction generator as well as load of distribution system from the power supply side. So the power factor of the power supply side during the induction generation operation is low. Condenser is installed in order to raise the low power factor of the induction generator. Switching transients occurs when the power supply of the capacitor is turned on in order to ensure the low power factor. When using the reactor in series with the capacitor in order to reduce the influence of switching transient, it can affect the reactive power by the condenser voltage rises. In this study, we analyzed the operating characteristics for power and power factor of induction generator in accordance with the presence or absence of the application of the serial reactors for switching transients reduction of the condenser and the condenser for power factor correction.

The most widely used scheme for detecting loss of excitation on generator is used to sense apparent impedance from generator terminals. This paper presents loss of excitation algorithm using DFT filter based negative offset mho elements for generator field protection. It's algorithm includes two negative mho characteristics looking in the generator. The generator control system was modeled by PSCAD/EMTDC software, and then the proposed algorithm was tested by the collecting relaying signals from selected the generator model. From simulation results, the loss of excitation algorithm can be used to field protection for generator.

This study investigates the safety assessment of the potential for fretting-wear damages on steam generator (SG) U-tubes caused by foreign object in operating nuclear power plants. The operating SG shell-side flow field conditions are obtained from three-dimensional SG flow calculation using the ATHOS3 code. Modal analyses are performed for the finite element modelings of U-tubes to get the natural frequency, corresponding mode shape and participation factor. The wear rate of U-tube caused by foreign object is calculated using the Archard formula and the remaining life of the tube is predicted. Also, discussed in this study is the effect of the flow velocity and vibration of the tube on the remaining life of the tube.
