Modern AC electric car has PWM(Pulse Width Modulation)-controlled converters, which give rise to higher harmonics. The current harmonics injected from AC electric car is propagated through power feeding circuit, As the feeding circuit is a distributed constant circuit composed of RLC, the capacitance of the feeding circuit and the inductance on the side of power system cause a parallel resonance and a magnification of current harmonics at a specific frequency. The magnified current harmonics usually brings about various problems. That is, the current harmonics makes interference in the adjacent lines of communications and the railway signalling system. Furthermore, in case it flows on the side of power system, not only overheating and vibration at the power capacitors but also wrong operation at the protective devices can occur. Therefore, the exact assessment of the harmonic current flow must be undertaken at design and planning stage for the electric traction systems. From these point of view, this study presents an approach to model and to analyse traction power feeding system focused on the amplification of harmonic current The proposed algorithm is applied to a standard AT(Auto-transformer)-fed test system in which electric car with PWM-controlled converters is running.

To investigate temporal and spatial variations of hydrodynamics and environmental conditions in Gyeonggi Bay, including Han River estuary, numerical experiments were performed using 3-dimensional fine grid numerical ocean model. The model successfully reproduced the physical phenomena already known in Gyeonggi Bay where tide and fresh water discharge are dominant forcings. The calculated harmonic constants of tide and tidal current agreed well with those of observations at nine tide stations and two tidal current stations. Tidal asymmetries along the Yeomha Waterway, mainly caused by non-linear effect, were well reproduced and agreed well with observations. Time series of salinity at four stations(A, B, C and D) and horizontal distributions of monthly averaged salinity show that Gyodong and Seokmo Waterways play an important role in fresh water discharge into the Gyeonggi Bay rather than Yeomha Waterway.

The objective of this paper is to present a quantitative analysis leading to the assessment of optimum terminating impedances in the design of active frequency multipliers. A brief analysis of the basic principal of the GaAs FET frequency multiplier is presented. The analysis is outlined in bias optimization and drive power determination. Utilizing the equivalent circuit model of GaAs FET, we have simulated the optimized load impedance for the maximum output of the active frequency multipliers. The C-class and reverse C-class frequency doublers have been fabricated and the load impedances have been measured. The experimental results are in good agreement with the estimated results in the simulation with the accuracy of 90%.

This paper presented a actual conditions on a false-tripping of ELB(Electrical Leakage Breaker) and an assessment of the harmonics due to non-linear electronic equipment such as personal computers, printers, fax machines, and test equipments in several office buildings. Actual conditions on a failure of ELB were surveyed and analyzed by making up a question to safety managers of in office buildings. Also, power quality measurements such as harmonic currents, voltage and current waveforms and current imbalance were made at various office buildings where nuisance tripping of ELB is often occurred. The results of this study can be used in making decisions regarding cause of ELB trip and operating md tripping characteristics test of ELB when subjected to distorted current waveforms.

This paper describes the distribution power system econimical PQMS(Power quality monitoring system) of Utility. Recently, the korea power quality standard has been established based on the IEC Std. By IEC Std., the power quality assessment point is measured in PCC(Point of common coupling). In this case, the utility has to construct PQM system in all customer PCC point and the PQ meter cost would be very high in order to acquire the suitable data. Also the distribution system would be encounter the communication overload problem due to the huge data. Accordingly the utilities could not apply to PQM system in the distribution power system by the cost and communication problem. In this paper, the proposed economical PQMS has the voltage and current signal reiteration function and FFT operation function is transferred the server. Also the voltage and current measurement channels are minimized by a classified substation construction.

Recently, as a result of the application of large and multi-blade propellers with high efficiency for large vessels, the vertical bending stiffness of propulsion shafting system tends to be declined. For some specific vessels, the shaft arrangement leads to the forward stern tube bearing to be omitted, decreasing vertical bending stiffness. In this respect, decreased vertical bending stiffness causes the problem which is the blade order resonance frequency to be placed within the operational rpm range of propulsion shafting system. To verify whirling vibration, the measurement should be carried out covering from operating rpm up to target rpm, however, the range is un-measurable generally. In order to resolve the measurement issue, this study shows the measuring method and the assessment method of relevant natural frequency of whiling vibration by using measured harmonic order component of whirling vibration.

In recent years, equipment and network standards have been increasing in both number and complexity. Two standards that will soon be introduced to KOREA are the HV standards for assessing distorting and fluctuating loads, IEC 61000-3-6. Utility engineers, being under increasing time constraints, are turning more and more to software to quickly solve problems. This paper describes the methodology used to implement the above standards in Microsoft Excel in order to assist utility engineers to readily apply these standards in practical situations.

비선형 부하의 급증으로 고조파로 인한 문제가 점차적으로 커지고 있으나 국내에서는 고조파 관리 기준 및 적용절차의 미비로 제대로 된 고조파 관리가 이루어지지 못하고 있다. 따라서 국내 송전계통에 연계되어는 있는 고압수용가에서 계통으로 유출할 수 있는 고조파 크기를 산정하는 프로그램이 필요하다. 국외에서는 IEC 61000-3-6 고조파 관리기준을 바탕으로 고압 수용가의 고조파 허용치 산정 알고리즘이 개발된 상태이다. 그러나 이 알고리즘을 국내 송전계통에 바로 적용할 수 없다. 따라서 이 알고리즘을 바탕으로 국내 송전계통 실정에 맞는 알고리즘으로 보완하고, 마이크로 소프트 엑셀 프로그램을 이용하여 고압 수용가 고조파 허용치 산정 프로그램을 개발하였다.
