Recently, according to developing industry and life style, power consumption have been increased year after year. Currently these much power demand from power consumer is weakening the allowable power reserve margin in summer. As one of the remedies about this problem, the small scale utility interactive photovoltaic system(UIPVS) is considered for auxiliary power source. For this system one of problems to be solved technically, system operating power factor. Generally in case of small scale system, system is operated in unity power factor. But this unity power factor operating mode decrease power factor viewed from utility because UIPVS supply active power to utility. Therefore this paper propose UIPVS with power factor correcting function and this system is analyzed.

Background and Objectives: Fractional flow reserve (FFR) is an invasive standard method to identify ischemia-causing coronary artery disease (CAD). With the advancement of technology, FFR can be noninvasively computed from coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA). Recently, a novel simpler method has been developed to calculate onsite CCTA-derived FFR (CT-FFR) with a commercially available workstation. Methods: A total of 319 CAD patients who underwent CCTA, invasive coronary angiography, and FFR measurement were included. The primary outcome was the accuracy of CT-FFR for defining myocardial ischemia evaluated with an invasive FFR as a reference. The presence of ischemia was defined as FFR ≤0.80. Anatomical obstructive stenosis was defined as diameter stenosis on CCTA ≥50%, and the diagnostic performance of CT-FFR and CCTA stenosis for ischemia was compared. Results: Among participants (mean age 64.7±9.4 years, male 77.7%), mean FFR was 0.82±0.10, and 126 (39.5%) patients had an invasive FFR value of ≤0.80. The diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of CT-FFR were 80.6% (95% confidence interval [CI], 80.5-80.7%), 88.1% (95% CI, 82.4-93.7%), 75.6% (95% CI, 69.6-81.7%), 70.3% (95% CI, 63.1-77.4%), and 90.7% (95% CI, 86.2-95.2%), respectively. CT-FFR had higher diagnostic accuracy (80.6% vs. 59.1%, p<0.001) and discriminant ability (area under the curve from receiver operating characteristic curve 0.86 vs. 0.64, p<0.001), compared with anatomical obstructive stenosis on CCTA. Conclusions: This novel CT-FFR obtained from an on-site workstation demonstrated clinically acceptable diagnostic performance and provided better diagnostic accuracy and discriminant ability for identifying hemodynamically significant lesions than CCTA alone.

Around the world are increasing the demand for ESS. Currently, the domestic is expected to benefit by operating ESS. In the domestic, it is expected to benefit from operations of the installed ESS because of the introduction of ESS less capacity. However ESS capacity to the maximum profit occurs is unknown. ESS is different from the charge-discharge characteristics and the reserve to replace, depending on the application. Therefore, it should be established in accordance with the ESS optimal capacity according to the purpose used because it can maximize the quality and efficiency of the electric energy. To the ESS optimal capacity estimation by the purpose used, It should compare the investment cost caused by ESS facility installation and operation cost caused by operating ESS. In this paper, the operation mathematical model for estimating marginal operation costs established. In operation mathematical model, operating cost is considered fuel cost and no-load cost start-up cost. Because no-load cost and start-up cost are not related to cost and power plant output, there are expressed an integer variable costs as a step function.

This study used the financial information of 29 Regional public hospitals registered in the HASPA. Regional public hospitals analyzed the ratio of operating financing by management activities and how they affect net profit. The results of the study, Regional Public Hospitals ratio of fund financing for management activities was 83.50 percent for medical revenues, 9.53 percent for Incidental Revenue of Medical, 4.54 percent for Contribution Revenue, 4.42 percent for Other non-medical profits, 1.21 percent for depreciation Expense and 0.73 percent for Amount of reserve for unique purpose project. As a result of examining the effect of financing by management operation on net profit, the ratio of operating funds by medical revenue, by incidental revenue of medical, by contribution revenue and by other non-medical profits had a positive impact on net profit of Regional public hospitals. And It has been confirmed that the ratio of amount of reserve for unique purpose project has a negative impact on net profit. Therefore, it is necessary for Regional public hospitals to manage costs in consideration of revenues and internal reserves.

In order to reserve frequency bands for stable operation of the Korean Positioning System (KPS), it must be demonstrated that the impact of interference caused by KPS on other services operating in the same bands is tolerable. The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) provides the radio regulations and a compatibility assessment methodology for the coexistence of different services in limited frequency resources. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the radio regulations regarding the compatibility issues between the KPS and other services sharing the same frequency bands. The results of the investigation show that the RNSS system can be operated in the L5-band under the condition that the Power Flux Density (PFD) and Aggregated Equivalent PFD (AEPFD) thresholds specified in the radio regulations are met. In addition, the ITU recommends that the interference-to-noise ratio (INR) protection criteria be met to prevent degradation of the performance of radar systems operating in the L2/L6-band. In the case of the S-band, coordination of allocations for RDSS space stations with respect to terrestrial services is not required if the PFD does not exceed regulated thresholds regulated by ITU.

발전설비의 불시정지, 예상치 못한 전력수요 급증 등 전력수요와 공급의 불확실성에 대비하기 위해 예비력을 운영 하고 있다. 최근 풍력발전원의 지속적인 증가로 풍력발전 출력값과 예측값의 차이인 예측오차에서 기인하는 풍력발전출력의 불확실성 또한 예비력 산정 시 고려할 주요 요소로 논의되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 발전력의 상당 부분을 풍력발전원이 담당하는 전력시스템에서 산정된 운영예비력의 적정성을 평가하는 방안을 제시하였다. 기존의 전력수요 예측오차, 발전기 불시정지 뿐만 아니라 풍력발전원의 불확실성을 모두 고려해 산정된 운영 예비력의 적정성을 평가한다.

The lack of water resources is becoming worse due to water pollution with accelerated industrialzation and regional unbalanced distribution of water resources. In recent, the production water quality is decreasing because of the increased organic matters and soluble solids in the water sources for power plants. The purpose of this paper discribes the ststus and prospect of membrane application in electric power industry. So this study lies in developing a process which can produce high purity water by appluing RO(Reserve Osmosis) ahead of the IX(Ion Exchange) tower and evaluating the product water quality and the cost effectiveness. The capital and operating cost for the treatment of brackish water, sea water by RO were presented as a reference for the review on securing water source for the new plant site.
