This paper illustrates newly an outage cost impact index function(OCIIF). The assessment of the OCIIF is described using the Web Based Online Real-time Outage Cost Assessment and Information System(WOROCAIS) for power system outage cost assessment in Korea. The proposed OCIIF is not absolute but relative outage cost impact index function in view point of outage time using web based survey method for outage cost assessment. While conventional methodology does not consider short time outage cost assessment, the proposed OCIIF reflects short time outage. SCOF(Sector Customer Outage Function) in stead of the traditional SCDF(Sector Customer Damage Function) is defined and proposed newly in this paper. Based the SCOF, AVLL(Average Value of Loss Load) is newly proposed. The OCIIF is demonstrated by WOROCAIS in case study around 2,000 sample data surveyed by KEPCO in South Korea in recent.

Encouragement of DER from Korean government with several policies boosts DER installation in power system. When the penetration of DER in the grid is getting high, loss of generation with break-away of DER by abnormal grid conditions should be considered, because loss of high generation causes abnormal low frequency and additional operations of protection system. Therefore, KEPCO where is Korean power utility is preparing improvement in regulations for DERs connected to the grid to support abnormal grid conditions such as low and high frequencies or voltages. This is called 'Ride Through' because the requirement is for DER to maintain grid connection during required periods when abnormal grid conditions occur. However, it is not easy to have a test for ride through capability in reality because emulation of abnormal grid conditions is not possible in real power system in operation. Also, it is not easy to have a study on grid effect when ride through capability fails with the same reason. PHILs (Power Hardware In the Loop System) makes it possible to analyze power system and hardware performance at once. Therefore, this paper introduces PHILs test methods and presents verification of ride through capability especially for low voltage grid conditions.

A necessity to a superconducting cable in power transmission systems have been growing more and more due to high power density in urban areas and rapid increase of power demand. In view of these situation, it is a noteworthy fact that superconducting cable has remarkable advantages, such as lower power loss and 3-5 times higher power transmission capacity, compared with conventional power cable. For the last a few years, long-term reliability tests had been carried out in the KEPCO PT Center, and now it has been installed in KEPCO's real power grid for demonstrating commercial operation. This paper deals with the test results of dielectric properties performed at manufacturing factory for the joint box, termination and core of HTS cable system and whole system connected in real power grid.

Downtime and malfunction of industrial rotor machines represents a crucial cost burden and productivity loss. Fault diagnosis of this equipment has recently been carried out to detect their fault(s) and cause(s) by using fault classification methods. However, these methods are of limited use in detecting rotor faults because of their hypersensitivity to unexpected and different equipment conditions individually. These limitations tend to affect the accuracy of fault classification since fault-related features calculated from vibration signal are moved to other regions or changed. To improve the limited diagnosis accuracy of existing methods, we propose a new approach for fault diagnosis of rotor machines based on the model generated by supervised learning. Our work is based on feature residual values from vibration signals as fault indices. Our diagnostic model is a robust and flexible process that, once learned from historical data only one time, allows it to apply to different target systems without optimization of algorithms. The performance of the proposed method was evaluated by comparing its results with conventional methods for fault diagnosis of rotor machines. The experimental results show that the proposed method can be used to achieve better fault diagnosis, even when applied to systems with different normal-state signals, scales, and structures, without tuning or the use of a complementary algorithm. The effectiveness of the method was assessed by simulation using various rotor machine models.

This paper presents an approach to feeder reconfiguration in order to achieve an efficient operation of distribution systems utilizing knowledge base. The optimal feeder reconfiguration in this study eliminates various abnormal states which will create feeder overloads and feeder constraint problems. and will also accomplish minimum power loss of the distribution systems under normal operating condition by means of branch exchanges to change the status of sectionalizing switches with experiences of the experts. For an effective implementation of feeder reconfiguration, a best-first tree searching strategy based on heuristics is employed to evaluate the various alternatives of load transfer. The heuristic exchange of branches results in reduction of the search space as a means of implementing the best-first searching strategy.

In this paper, marginal loss factors are calculated for 12 load cases that represent the impact of marginal network tosses on nodal prices at the transmission network connection points at which generators are located. Based on comparison analysis of marginal loss factors on generation energy resources, we can find the characteristics of each plants according to its energy resources in KOREA.

The air-cooled waterwheel generator has a fan connected to waterwheel shaft or motor driven fan or fans. The fans are operated at constant speed, constant input, regardless of generator loss which is varied according to generator output and coolant the perature. Energy savings may he possible if the cooling air flow is controlled according to generato output and air temperature depending on season. The simulation and experience have been done on the 22.6 KVA Waterwheel generator by using AC variable speed drive. The results gave us los cut of generator.

The cause of black out of Tokyo Power in 1987 has been identified as the voltage stability problem. After this event many researchers has been interested in voltage stability or voltage collapse phenomena. The voltage instability is different Com the transient stability in the sense of reactive power mismatch and the long duration time. In this study, we developed efficient tool for analyze and control the dynamic voltage instability. To analize specific condition of dynamic voltage stability, quasi-dynamic simulation method is developed. To provide proper mathmatical model for dynamic voltage stability, generator, SVC, OLTC, induction motor models are introducted. To provide specified dynamic voltage stability, the authors considered to use reactive loss function(${\partial}Q/{\partial}p_L$) as reactive power facility control index. This program was tested and identified its usefulness in real KEPCO system.

The HTS power cable system of 3-phase 100-m class has been tested at the KEPCO's Gochang power testing center in Korea during 8,000 hours or more for investigating long-term operating performance. The system is rated 22.9kV, 1250A and is cooled with sub cooled liquid nitrogen. Several cooling performance tests such as cooling capacity, heat load, AC loss, temperature stability and thermal cycle were performed at operating temperature of 66.4K and several different temperatures.
