Partial discharge(PD) test can be performed either when the rotating machine is not operating(off-line) or during normal machine operation(on-line). This paper presents an on-line and off-line PD test on a large hydro-generator and induction motor using the same PD acquisition system(PDAS) and ceramic coupler(CC) sensor. PD signal characteristics of CC sensor proved similar with that of epoxy mica coupler(EMC) sensor as a results of PD test for simulated defect winding and frequency response test. A comparison of on-line and off-line PD test for PD characteristic parameters-phase resolved PD(PRPD), maximum PD value(Qmax) and PD occurrence energy(POE)-indicated that on-line PD test could reliably and effectively diagnose insulation conditions which were verified by off-line PD test.

We studied the effects of ginseng protopanaxadiol (PD) and protopanaxatriol (PT) saponins on the analgesia using several pain tests such as writhing, formalin, and tail-flick test. Using mouse, pretreatment of PD or PT saponins (i.p.) induced inhibition of abdominal constrictions caused by 0.9% acetic acid administration(i.p.). The $AD_{50}$ was around 27 (17-43) mg/kg for PD and 13.5 (3-61) mg/kg for PT saponins in writhing test. Both PD and PT saponins also showed the inhibition of bitings and lickings of hindpaw after administration of 1% formalin. In particular, both PD and PT saponins showed analgesic effects on second phase of pain. The $AD_{50}$ was 44.5 (26-76) mg/kg for PD and 105 (55-200) mg/kg for PT saponins in second phase of formalin test. For first phase pain inhibition by PD or PT saponins, they were required higher concentrations. However, PD saponins showed weak analgesic effects in tail-flick test with high concentration. In conclusion, we found that both PD and PT saponins have the analgesic effects in writhing test and second phase of pain in formalin test. These results suggest that both PD and PT saponins inhibit neurogenic or tonic pain rather than acute pain.

This paper describes a low-level partial discharge(PD) testing that has been accepted as a non-destructive test method on insulation performance of electronic components. A comparative PD analysis combined with the Withstand Voltage Test (WVT) specified in IEC standards is carried out on high frequency switching transformers. The analysis shows that insulation degradation of the transformers under test progresses during the WVT. To avoid insulation degradation of the specimen, PD test has to be carried out at as low voltage as possible. In this study, the PD test on the transformers is performed in ranges from 50% to 70% of the test voltage specified in the WVT by measuring apparent charges below 1 pC. From the experimental results, it is expects that the low-level PD test is applicable for electronic components as a replacement of the WVT.

Physical developer (PD) is an effective technique that can develop fingerprints even on wet or very old paper. However, it has not been known which substance reacts with PD. Also, the timing of optimization according to the storage period of the PD working solution has not been known. The present research has done a spot test with 7 eccrine components and 5 sebaceous components that known as fingerprint components and figured out the mixture of palmitic acid and lysine gave the strongest positive reaction. Also, paper treated with PD was treated in 1,2-indanedione/zinc (1,2-IND/Zn) working solution and showed lysine was not dissolved in water. To find out the timing of optimization according to the storage period of the TWEEN^® 20 based PD working solution, the mixture of palmitic acid and lysine was used for the target of reagent reliability test. As the result, working solution of 14 days storage period showed better result than other working solutions.

Partial discharge(PD) test for simulated insulation defects of used hydro generator stator winding was conducted to analyze the PD Parameters. Simulated insulation defects are classified by 5 types corona, slot, internal, multi and aging defect. Phase resolved partial discharge, statistical parameter (skewness, kurtosis), PD magnitude as a function of the test voltage(Q-V curve) and PD magnitude change under test voltage for 2 minutes are used as PD parameters. The analysis of PD parameters by 4 types are proved to be useful methods. In particular, PD parameter characteristics of aging defect could help to assess the aging condition of stator winding because aging defect has more weak insulation strength than other insulation defects : PD distribution is wide and flat, PD rises rapidly near $0^{\circ}\;and\;180^{\circ}$ and Q-V curve rises sharply and then gently drops.

The surface microstructural changes, mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of Ti-Pd alloys for dental biomaterials have been investigated. Ti, Ti-Pd alloys were melted in arc furnace and the corrosion resistance of Ti-Pd alloys was evaluated by anodic polarization test. The surface microstructural changes and mechanical properties of Ti-Pd alloys were analysed by scanning electron microscope and Vickers micro-hardness tester. The vickers hardnees of pure Ti improved by addition of Pd but Ti-25Pd alloy showed decreasing compared with Ti-15Pd. And anodic polarization and potentiostatic test were conducted in 5% HCl to quantify the resistance to corrosion with the addition of Pd, There was no significant difference in corrosion resistance between pure Ti, Ti-5Pd and Ti-15Pd alloy. However, Ti-25Pd alloy showed decreasing compared with pure Ti in corrosion resistance. From these results, it was concluded that newly formulated Ti-15Pd experimental alloy have adequate hardness and high corrosion resistance, and this alloy is promising candidate for a successful dental casting alloy.

On-line partial discharge(PD) diagnostic system is the most prominent systems to diagnose insulation condition for the high voltage rotating machines. Partial discharge measuring system(PDMS) series with ceramic coupler(PD detecting sensor) installed hydro generator and high voltage motor have been measured the PD data for many years. The trend of PD magnitude in the on-line PD system increased for some machines. These machines showed a same result in the conventional off-line PD test and PD magnitude decreased after stator winding insulation cleaning. This case study show that PDMS has been proved to be good results by comparing PD magnitude with on-line and off-line PD test and it is important to plan the maintenance project for the hydro generator stator winding because PD value was decreased after insulation cleaning.

This paper proposes a novel pattern recognition approach based on the radial basis function (RBF) neural network for identifying insulation defects of high-voltage electrical apparatus arising from partial discharge (PD). Pattern recognition of PD is used for identifying defects causing the PD, such as internal discharge, external discharge, corona, etc. This information is vital for estimating the harmfulness of the discharge in the insulation. Since an insulation defect, such as one resulting from PD, would have a corresponding particular pattern, pattern recognition of PD is significant means to discriminate insulation conditions of high-voltage electrical apparatus. To verify the proposed approach, experiments were conducted to demonstrate the field-test PD pattern recognition of cast resin current transformer (CRCT) models. These tests used artificial defects created in order to produce the common PD activities of CRCTs by using feature vectors of field-test PD patterns. The significant features are extracted by using nonlinear principal component analysis (NLPCA) method. The experimental data are found to be in close agreement with the recognized data. The test results show that the proposed approach is efficient and reliable.
