KEPCO Research Institute has been researching a Superconducting Fault Current Limiter (SFCL) which is considered one of solutions of fault current problems with Korea Institute of Machinery & Materials (KIMM) and Hanyang University since 2011. In this paper, we fabricated a current limiting module and conducted electrical short circuit tests for checking the validity of the transmission level SFCL design. Based on the short circuit characteristics of the second generation High Temperature Superconductor (HTS), we analyzed the short circuit characteristics of 3 parallel connected superconducting wires. The structure of the HTS wire is as follows: the stainless steel stabilizer of $100{\mu}m$ is laminated on the superconductor layer and under the substrate, both of which are electrically jointed with solder. We fabricated the current limiting module which has 40 series and 6 parallel connections and studied the short circuit characteristics of the module under various voltage levels.

This study is to discuss limiting factors influenced on the removal efficiency of organic materials investigated using the polypropyrene biofilter which appropriate to attach micro-organism in order to apply the contact oxidation proce,:5. The results obtained in the experiment were as follows : 1. In the range o: pH 4.0~ 12.0 was obtained the removal efficiency of COD higher than 85% It was proved that variation of pH(4.0 ~ 12.0) was nothing to do with the removal efficiency of substrate in continuous reactor. 2. Temperature to obtain removal efficiency of COD higher than 85% was $10^{\circ}$ ~$40^{\circ}$. Removal efficiency of COD was no less than those at high temperature if MLVSS concentration was maintained 8,000~ 15,000 m/1. 3. In the continuous reactor, the volumetric loading of COD for removal efficiency higher than 95% had to be 0.5~1.5 kg COD/.d below. And then the HRT was Bhrs. 4. In comparison with the conventional activate sludge process, the contact oxidation process was excellent in removal efficiency, sludge production rate and maintenance.

We have explored the factors affecting the resistivity of Cu (Mg) alloy, which was prepared by sputtering. The results show that the resistivity is a function of Mg content, annealing temperature, annealing time, and Cu-alloy thickness. Addition of Mg to copper increases the resistivity through solute scattering. In addition, increasing Mg content promotes the interfacial reaction between Mg and SiO$_2$ to produce the free silicon and the generated free silicon dissolves into copper, resulting in a significant increase of resistivity. Furthermore, increasing oxidation temperature rapidly decreases the resistivity at the initial stage of oxidation and then continues to increase the resistivity to the saturation value with increasing oxidation time. The saturation value depends on the residual Mg content and the thickness of the alloy. TEM and AES analyses reveal that dense, uniform MgO grows to the limiting thickness of about $150\AA$. However, interfacial MgO does not show the limiting thickness, instead continues to grow until Mg is completely exhausted. From these facts, we proposed the maximum available Mg content needed to from the dense MgO on the surface and suppress the excessive interfacial reaction.

This paper deals with the computation of the current limiting behavior of high-temperature superconducting (HTS) modules for the superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL). The SFCL module consists of a monofilar type BSCCO-2212 tube and a shunt coil made of copper or brass. The shunt coil is connected to the monofilar superconducting tube in parallel. Through analysis of the quench behavior of the monofilar component with shunt coils, it is achieved to drive an equivalent circuit equation from the experimental circuit structure. In order to analyze the quench behavior of the SFCL module, we derived a partial differential equation technique. Inductance of the monofilar component and the impedance of the shunt coil are calculated by Bio-Savart and Ohm's formula, respectively. We computed the quench behavior using the calculated values, and compared the results with experimental results for the quench characteristics of a component. The results of computation and test agreed well each other, and it was concluded that the analytic result could be applied effectively to design of the distribution-level SFCL system.

본 연구의 목적은 수용성고분자 PVA의 한외여과 실험을 통해 한계투과량(limiting flux) 현상에 미치는 조업변수들의 효과들을 고찰하고, 또한 겔층모델(gel-layer model)의 한계성을 극복하기 위해 열전달 계수의 개념을 도입한 Amiar 모델식을 바탕으로 새로운 모델식을 제시하여 이의 적용 가능성을 살펴보았다. Polysulfone 재질의 평판막(MWCO=20,000)과 중공사형막(MWCO= 30,000)을 사용하여 막내선속도, 투과압력, 온도, PVA 농도 등의 변화에 따른 한외여과 특성을 살펴보았다. 실험결과를 통해 polysulfone 재질의 막을 통해 PVA의 한외여과 과정은 겔층형성에 따른 투과저항 메커니즘이 작용하는 것으로 나타났다. 반면에 중공사형막의 경우는 한계투과량 조건하에서 겔층모델에 의해 예측할 수 없는 upward 한계투과량 현상이 관측되었다. 점성도 보정인자(viscosity correction factor)가 포함된 새로운 모델식의 적용을 통해서 upward 한계투과량 현상을 예측하였으나 완전히 만족할만한 결과를 얻지 못했다. 그러나 이와 같은 모델식의 적용을 통해서 PVA의 한외여과 과정이 투과용액의 점성도와 매우 밀접한 관계를 가짐을 알 수 있었다.

We fabricated resistive super- conducting fault current limiters (SFCL) based on YBCO thin films grown on a 2" diameter $Al_{2}$O_{3} substrate. The minimum quench current of the current minimum quench current of the current limiting element was about 8 $A_{peak}. This SFCL successfully controlled the fault current below 14.3 $A_{peak} at the voltage of 100$V_{rms}, which is otherwise to increase up to 141$A_{peak}. and the quench completion time is less than 3 msec. The temperature of the current limiting element rose to about 200K in 3 cycles after fault. The SFCL showed reproducible characteristics during hundreds times of repeated experiments.ents.

According to the increase of electric consumption nowadays, power system becomes complicated. Due to this, the size of single line-to-ground fault from power system also increases to have many problems. In order to resolve these problems effectively, an Superconducting Fault Current Limiter(SFCL) was proposed and continuous study has been done. In this paper, an SFCL was combined to the neutral line of a transformer. An superconductivity has the characteristics of zero resistance below critical temperature. because of this, SFCL has nearly zero resistance. so we connecting SFCL to neutral line will not only have any loss in the normal operation but also have the less burden of electric power because of only limiting the initial fault current. We analyzed the characteristics of current, voltage according to the changes of turn ratio of 3 phase system in case of combinations of an SFCL to the neutral line. It was confirmed that the limiting rate of initial fault current by the increase of turn ratio was reduced.

Double-diffusive convection with verical temperature and concentration gradients in thermally stratified fluids has been investigated experimentally using an electrochemical technique. Cupric sulfuric-sulffuric acid solution confined between two horizontal copper electrodes was used. The change of thermal and solutal buoyance has no influence on the range of voltage for the limiting current. Due to Soret effect, the onset time of natural convection is delayed as the stabilizing thermal buoyancy decreases. Also it is found that the shrinkage of the unstabilizing solutal buoyancy makes the onset of natural convection retard. Multi-layered convective phenomena do not appear because cupric sulfate-sulfuric acid solution is thermally stratified, and heat diffuses faster than cupric sulfate solfate solution.

To address mounting concerns over global warming, the Paris Agreement was reached in December 2015, which aims to limit the increase in global average temperature. South Korea has set a highly ambitious target to reduce emissions and submitted an Intended Nationally Determined Contribution (INDC). Based on the INDC, we investigated the impact of limiting carbon emissions on the power system and the electricity market in Korea. Through detailed simulations on assumed plausible scenarios, this work highlights a) the effects of different carbon emission targets on the annual carbon emission volumes, generation costs, and carbon price; b) the generation mix changes induced by carbon emission limits; and c) the difference in system marginal price and payments for generator owners that carbon emission constraint creates in electricity markets under three different pricing rules.
