This paper proposes a simplified and efficient control scheme for Unified Power Quality Conditioner (UPQC) based on three-level (NPC) inverter capable to mitigate source current harmonics and compensate all voltage disturbances perturbations such us, voltage sags, swells, unbalances and harmonics. The UPQC is designed by the integration of series and shunt active filters (AFs) sharing a common dc bus capacitor. The dc voltage is maintained constant using proportional integral voltage controller. The shunt and series AF are designed using a three-phase three-level (NPC) inverter. The synchronous reference frame (SRF) theory is used to get the reference signals for shunt and the power reactive theory (PQ) for a series APFs. The reference signals for the shunt and series APF are derived from the control algorithm and sensed signals are injected in tow controllers to generate switching signals for series and shunt APFs. The performance of proposed UPQC system is evaluated in terms of power factor correction and mitigation of voltage, current harmonics and all voltage disturbances compensation in three-phase, three-wire power system using MATLAB-Simulink software and SimPowerSystem Toolbox. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed UPQC system can improve the power quality at the common connection point of the non-linear load.

This study was performed to inquire demand for indroducing certification on contract foodservice management company(CFMC) and review about the system in a related field. The methodology was practiced an in-depth interview for grasping demand on certification of CFMC and composition on an appraiser group. Content analysis was reviewed about the system in a related field. Large enterprises and small and medium-sized enterprises were positive opinion on a certification of CFMC and they suggested that education and research institution, industry, government, association will be included in appraiser group. The review about the system of a related industry was investigated by field such as similar product and service with restaurant industry, similar service with hotel and tourism industry. And similar purpose with a certification of CFMC was put in operation as PQ(pre-qualification) and selecting an adequate corporation in architecture industry. Therefore, a certification of CFMC should be tried to scientific introduction by objective verification.

The antimutagenic activity of the extract of Artemisia capillaris THUNB on the mutagenicity induced by benzo(a)pyrene [B(a)P] in the presense of S9 mixture was studied using bacterial mutagenic assay system. Samples harvested in summer and autumn were extracted using ethanol and hot water. Among these extracts the water extract of summer sample had the strongest inhibitory effect against the mutagenenicity of B(a)P, The water extract of Artemisia capillaris THUNB was separated again into ethanol soluble and insoluble parts. The ethanol insoluble part(El) of water extract exhibited higher inhibition effects than the ethanol soluble part against the mutagenic activity of B(a)P. El showed dose-dependent activity on the mutagenicity of B(a)P in SOS Chromotest and Ames test. The 50% inbibition concentraction $(IC_{50}$ of El were $200{\mu}g/assay$ $600{\mu}g/plate$ and $800{\mu}b/plate$ in E. coil PQ37 S. typhimurium TA100 and TA98 respectively. El were showed desmutagenic effect but had no effect on the DNA repair system for B(a)P-induced mutagenesis. HPLC analysis showed that the formation of aflatoxin M1 by cytochrome P-450 1A1 known as playing an impotant role on B(a) P-induced mutagenicity was highly inhibited by El. Therefore we encluded that B(a)P-induced mutagencity can be reduced possible due to the interference of el with cytochrome P-450 1A1-dependent bioactivation.

시험편을 용접할때 사용한 용접 변수의 기록서인 PQR(Procedure Qualification Record)은, 용접구조물을 제작하는 제조 업체에서, 수시로 PQ Test를 수행하여 작성되고 있으며, 가장 기본적이고 중요한 용접 데이터이기 때문에 소중하게 관리되고 있다. 그리고, PQR의 수량이 많아지면, 관리에 많은 어려움이 따르고, 필요 한 데이터를 찾는데 많은 시간이 소요될뿐만 아니라, 정확한 데이터를 찾아내는 것도 쉽지가 않다. 따라서, PQR 관리 시스템을 개발하여, PQR의 데이터를 쉽게 활용하고, 자료 검색을 간단하게 할 수 있으며, PQR의 작성을 간편하게 하고자 PQR 관리 시스템 을 개발 하였다. 본 시스템의 특징은 PQR 양식을 새롭게 표준화하여 출력할 수 있게 하였고, PQR 작성을 처음 시작하는 사용자도 쉽게 배워 업무에 적용할 수 있다. 이는 용접 전문가의 노하우가 데이터 베이스에 내재되어 있어 서로 관련된 정보의 반복 입력이 적으며, 한 개의 데이터로 다른 데이터가 자동 결정되고, 데이터의 입력방식 이 키인(Keyboard Input)이 아닌 리스트(List)에서 선택하는 방식으로 하였다. 또한, 용접부 개선 형상의 Outline을 제공하여 수작업의 부담을 줄였으며, 검색의 기능이 강력하여 검색조건 선정에 제한이 없다. 그러므로, 본 시스템은 전반적으로 용접전문 가의 지식을 프로그래밍한 지능성, 전문성, 복합성을 가진 시스템이라 할 수 있다. 본 고에서는 ASME CODE에 따라서 작성되는 PQR의 관리 시스템을 소개하고자 한다.

This paper presents a wavelet-based neural network technology for the detection and classification of the various types of power quality disturbances. Power quality phenomena are short-time problems and of many varieties. Particularly, the transients happen during very short durations to the nano- and microsecond. Thus, a method for detecting and classifying transient signals at the same time and in an automatic combines the properties of the wavelet transform and the advantages of neural networks. Especially, the additional feature extraction to improve the recognition rate is considered. The configuration of the hardware of WN (PQ-DAS) and some case studies are described.

A method to compute the reactive powers of the added buses by the decoupled UPFC model for the optimal voltage profile is presented, by which the voltage magnitudes of PQ buses can get closer to the reference value(usually one p.u.). The performance index for assessing how much the voltage magnitude is closer to the reference value is defined as the squared sum of the present voltage minus the reference voltage multiplied by the weighting number associated with the relative importance of the buses. Numerical example in a 10-unit 39-bus power system with 2 UPFC's shows that the performance index can be very much reduced by operating multi UPFC's with the reactive powers for the optimal voltage profile proposed in this paper.

설계용역과 통합하여 발주되는 측량용역의 입찰 제도를 보면 계획기관에서 설계예산서를 작성하여 해당 부처 분임경리관을 경유하여 공개경쟁입찰 또는 입찰참가자격제도(PQ) 등으로 발주하게 된다. 이 과정에서 측량용역과 설계용역을 분리하지 않고 측량용역 비를 설계용역비에 통합예산으로 발주 처리하고 있어 측량회사는 설계용역사로부터 불법으로 하도급 받고 있다. 설계용역회사는 엔지니어링등록과 측량업(공공측량)을 동시에 등록하여 용역수주를 하므로 기술력이 부족한 측량용역을 당연히 저가하도급으로 처리하는 커다란 모순이 발생하고 있다. 따라서 저가하도급으로 인한 측량성과의 부실은 건설공사의 부실시공으로 이어져 커다란 공사비손실과 안전 및 유지관리에 큰 문제점을 야기하고 있다. 이와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 본 연구에서는 측량용역 등록업체의 현황 및 현행 발주제도 방법 등의 분석을 통하여 발주제도의 개선방안을 제안하고자 한다.

The control method of Thyristor Controlled Reactor(TCR) is described in this paper for compensating the poor power factor, unbalanced and/or nonlinear load. Also, auxiliary controller such as DC current and power-factor controller is described. The reference current of TCR is calculated from the active and reactive Current components for each of the positive and negative sequence components in the load Currents. This reactive power control technique was verified by simulation program and will be used in 5Mvar TCR system, which will be installed next year at hot rolled mill at POSCO, located in Kwang-Yang.
