The change of the discharge characteristics of the high-pressure sodium (HPS) lamps is investigated over a power source frequency range of 60 Hz to 30, 000 Hz. As the frequency increases, the light and electrical characteristics of the HPS lamps are improved since the re-ignition is not needed due to the constant electron density, and the cathode fall is reduced. But at the certain frequency range, the arc instability called acoustic resonance occurs, and the arc tube is damaged. Regarding these characteristics and the kind of the illuminating system, a proper frequency is selected to operate the HPS lamps. And a new measuring system using a computer and the storage-scope is developed to avoid the error of the ordinary gauges at high frequency power.

Now it's a trend to install a series of white fluorescent light and orange high pressure sodium lamps because tunnel lighting should be opaque to the safety of drivers from soot, dust, humidity, and fog. Also fluorescent lighting is replaced to LED due to the fact that it improves amenity and object recognition and LED lighting has gradually been improved its nature. In this paper, we have implemented the circuits of the yellow series of high-pressure sodium lamps and white series of LED lights at one board to improve the transparency and recognition of objects. It is possible for inductive high-pressure sodium lamps and the capacitive LED drivers to circuit without power factor compensation. Two circuit parts share only a small number of parts, so low cost LED drivers compared to conventional ones are possible. Therefore, the implementation of the hybrid lighting with high-pressure sodium lamps and LED lights that can be driven at the same time by one driving circuit is possible. The LED capacitive power factor was 0.91 while individually implemented the sodium lamp power factor was 0.98. It shows not only the 2% improvement of hybrid forms but also the efficiency and THD.

This paper introduces the electronic ballast for high pressure sodium (HPS) lamps which provides power regulation during the whole lamp life without using a closed-loop power control system, in spite of large variations of lamp characteristics resulting from lamp aging. The structure of the electronic ballast and the parameters of HPS lamps are described. A mathematical model for the ballast is developed and used for the design and analysis of the ballast. A design procedure is presented to design the ballast which provides intrinsic power regulation over the whole lamp life. To improve the technical specifications of the ballast, the practical and standard constraints are considered in the design. According to the design procedure, an electronic ballast for 250-W HPS lamps is designed. All theoretical analyses are verified with the help of a semi-industrial experimental setup. The results validate that the designed ballast provides power regulation during the whole lamp life.

터널구조물의 특성상 터널조명은 일반 도로의 조명과 달리 주간에도 조명이 필요하므로, 터널 유지관리 비용 가운데 터널조명을 위한 전력요금은 가장 높은 비율을 차지하고 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 유지비용 절감 등을 위하여 터널조명을 낮은 소비전력, 장수명 등의 장점이 있는 LED램프로 교체 중에 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존 터널조명이 고압나트륨램프인 10개소 터널을 대상으로 터널조명 광원을 LED램프로 교체 시 효과 분석을 위하여, 광원 교체 전·후 터널 조도측정결과 및 1년간의 월별 전력사용량을 조사하였다. 터널조명 광원을 고압나트륨램프에서 LED램프로 교체 후 조도는 27.9~490% 향상되었으나, 터널조명용 전력사용량은 평균 47.1% 감소한 것으로 나타났다.

국내 터널조명에는 저압나트륨램프, 고압나트륨램프, 형광램프 등이 주요 광원으로 사용되고 있으며, 터널 유지관리 비용 가운데 터널조명을 위한 전력요금은 가장 높은 비율을 차지하고 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 터널조명은 낮은 소비전력, 장수명 등의 장점을 갖는 LED로 교체 중에 있다. 본 연구에서는 터널조명 LED 교체에 따른 효과 분석을 위하여 기존 터널조명이 저압나트륨램프인 8개소 터널에 대하여, LED 교체 전·후 터널 조도측정결과 및 1년간의 월별 전력사용량을 조사하였으며, 분석결과 터널조명 광원을 저압나트륨램프에서 LED로 교체 후 1년간 터널조명용 전력사용량은 26.1~59.6% 감소하였으며, 조도는 34.1~293% 향상된 것으로 나타났다.

In this paper, a new design using a simulation method was proposed. And to estimate its validity, various electronic and optical data were measured after making a 150[W] electronic ballast for high pressure sodium lamps. Using PSpice 9.1, the best solutions of various parameters such as the resonant frequency, the lamp output voltage, and the current of the electronic ballast were obtained. The power factor of the system was 99.8[%], the crest factor 1.44, the THD 4.99[%], and the weight 0.5[kg]. These are very good characteristics compared with a conventional HPS Lamp ballast.

본 연구에서는 광원의 색온도와 연색성의 차이에 의한 밝음의 느낌을 연구하기 위하여 이종 램프간, 또한 동종 램프 간의 비교 실험을 시각 대상물로 흑백 인쇄문자지와 색상지를 사용하여 수행하였다. 백열전구, 형광램프, 고압 나트륨램프, 메탈헬라이드램프, 무전극 방전램프를 대상으로 실험을 수행한 결과, 이종 광원의 경우 밝음의 느낌 비는 백열전구를 제외한 광원의 경우 대체적으로 평균연색계수에 비례하는 경향이 있으며, 모든 시험 대상 광원의 경우 색온도에 비례하는 것으로 나타났다.

Plant growth was greatly affected by the spectral distribution and light intensity of artificial lighting sources. In this study, the spectral characteristics of high power sodium (HPS) lamps and metal halide (MH) lamps produced by three different manufacturers were measured. Even though the spectral distribution of HPS lamps with lamp wattage of 250 W and 400 W was very similar, but the spectral light intensity by the manufacturers was different. Difference in the spectral light intensity of MH lamps by the manufacturers was increased with the increasing lamps wattage. Light intensity at the region of blue (B), green (G), red (R) and far-red (FR) light of HPS and MH lamps was also analyzed. HPS lamps showed the light intensity in order of R, FR, B and G light. The ratio of G, B, R and FR to photosynthetic photon flux (PPF) of HPS lamps with the lamp wattage of 250 W was 3.0-3.2%, 5.5-5.9%, 17.3-19.2% and 6.5-7.8%, respectively. For MH lamps, it showed the light intensity in order of R, FR, B, and G. The ratio of B, G, R, and FR to PPF of MH lamps with 250 W was 14.0-15.5%, 22.6-27.5%, 7.5-9.5% and 2.7-4.2%, respectively. HPS and MH lamps with 400 W had a relatively smaller ratio of R and FR to PPF than those with 250 W. HPS lamps showed that the ratio of light intensity of B and FR to R was 0.15-0.28 and 0.36-0.4, respectively. For MH lamps, the ratio of light intensity of B and FR to R was 1.26-2.72 and 0.27-0.56, respectively. From these results, it was concluded that the portion of blue light of MH lamps was higher than those of HPS lamps.

터널은 주·야간 모두 인공조명을 사용해야 되는 특성으로 인해 에너지 소비가 가장 많이 발생하는 도로 공간으로, 전기요금 절감 등을 위해 기존 터널조명 광원 대비 낮은 소비전력, 장수명의 장점을 갖는 LED램프로 교체 중에 있다. 터널구조물은 공용 중 부속시설 교체라는 일련의 중장기적이고 지속적인 과정이 수반되므로, 시설물 공용기간 동안의 생애주기비용을 고려해야 사회간접자본의 효율적인 활용을 기대할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서 터널 조명광원을 고압나트륨램프에서 LED램프로 교체 시 LCC측면의 절감효과를 정량적으로 분석하였으며, 터널 조명 광원을 LED램프로 교체 시 램프의 수명증대에 의한 교체주기 감소 및 이로 인한 유지관리 비용 감소효과가 매우 큰 것으로 나타났다.
