The general capacitor placement problem is a combinatorial optimization problem having an objective function composed of power losses and capacitor installation costs subject to bus voltage constraints. In this paper, the method employing the chaos search algorithm is proposed to solve optimal capacitor placement problem with reducing computational effort and enhancing optimality of the solution. Chaos method in optimization problem searches the global optimal solution on the regularity of chaotic motions and easily escapes from local or near optimal solution than stochastic optimization algorithms. The chaos optimization method is tested on 9 buses and 69 buses system to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

EEG(Electroencephalogram) background signals can be represented as the sun of a conventional AR(Autoregressive) process and an innovation process, or a prediction error process. We have seen that conventional estimation techniques. such as least square estimates(LSE) or Gaussian maximum likelihood estimates(MLE-G) are optimal when the innovation process satisfies the Gaussian or presumed distribution. But when the data are contaminated by outliers, or artifacts, these assumptions are not met and conventional estimation techniques can badly fall and be strongly biased. It is known that EEG can be easily affected by artifacts. So we suggest a robust estimation technique which considerably performs well against those artifacts.

Pressure balancing valve is one of important control devices, which is fully automatic and no manual controls, regulating or adjustments are needed. It is typically used to maintain constant temperature of working fluid in power and chemical plants and domestic water supply systems. Pressure balancing valve is composed of body, cylinder and balancing piston. Therefore, the balancing piston shapes are important design parameters for a pressure balancing valve. In this study, numerical and experimental analyses are carried out with two different balancing piston shapes. Especially, the distribution of static pressure is investigated to calculate the flow coefficient($C_v$). The governing equations are derived from making using of three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations with standard ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model and SIMPLE algorithm. Using commercial code, PHOEIC, the pressure and flow fields in pressure balancing valve are depicted.

The independent operation of a color filter for incident polarization is demonstrated using a guided-mode resonance (GMR) filter employing a metal-insulator-metal (MIM) waveguide. To achieve independent operation, a rectangular MIM grating is proposed as a wave-guide resonator. The design considerations are discussed and include how to determine the grating period and slit width. Power flow distribution is observed with slit width variation. Blue-green, green-red, and blue-red filters for corresponding x- and y-polarizations are demonstrated as application examples with numerical simulation with rectangle-shaped MIM grating. As a practical application, feasibility as a chromatic polarizer is discussed.

The purpose of this study is the development of hybrid horizontal electrokinetic(EK) remediation system on rifle range soil under unsaturated conditions. In order to remediate soil polluted by multi-species heavy metals, in pi]of scale, a series of EK remediation tests are carried out. PVC and PDB(Plastic Drain Board) electrode systems that connected with the power supply of constant voltage and vacuum pressure of 0.5kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ are installed, The test results showed that the pH distribution in the sample is below 8, which is maintained until the test is finished, because of the injection of flushing solution. The final concentration, which is normalized by initial concentration, is ranged about 50 to 90%.

Traditional time based preventive maintenance is used to constant maintenance interval for equipment life. In order to consider economic aspect for time based preventive maintenance, preventive maintenance is scheduled by RCM(Reliability-Centered Maintenance) evaluation. So, Markov state model is utilized considering stochastic state in RCM. In this paper, a Markov state model which can be used for scheduling and optimization of maintenance is presented. The deterioration process of system condition is modeled by a Markov model. In case study, simulation results about RCM are used to the real historical data of combustion turbine generating units in Korean power systems.

종래의 배전계통에 있어서의 전력조류는 변전소에서 선로말단을 향한 단 방향이었지만, 분산전원이 연계된 배전계통의 경우에는 그 출력용량의 여부에 따라 양방향의 전력조류가 발생할 가능성이 있어, 계통운용상 여러 가지의 문제점이 야기될 수 있다. 분산형전원에 대규모전원의 보완적 역할과 배전선로 상의 국부적 부하 감당 역할을 부과하여 그의 적극적 활용을 꾀하기 위해서는, 분산전원으로부터 배전계통에 전력을 공급하는 역조류의 기능을 허용할 수 있는 양방향 보호협조방식의 체제를 확립할 필요가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 분산전원 연계에 따른 보호협조 기본 방안과 부하절체 운전에 따른 보호협조 방안, 변압기결선에 따른 보호협조 방안 등에 대한 알고리즘을 제시하였다.

산업자원부에서는 국가에너지사업의 정책으로 지역 에너지사업 및 신 재생에너지 시범보급사업을 수행하고 있으며, 이에 따라 대규모 신재생에너지전원(태양광, 풍력, 열병합 등) 단지가 활발하게 조성되고 있는 상황이다. 그러나 신재생에너지전원의 설치자 측에서는 설비비용의 절감을 이유로 일반배전선로(고압 및 저압배전선로)에 직접적인 연계를 요구하고 있으나, 한전 측에서는 계통운용의 어려움으로 인하여 까다로운 계통연계지침(가이드라인)을 정하여, 한전 측과 전기사업자(전기공사업자 및 발전 사업업자)간의 이해가 상충되는 부분이 발생하고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 신재생에너지전원의 발전업자와 전기공사업자의 측면에서는 효율적인 공사 및 시공을 위하여, 배전계통 연계와 관련된 복잡한 기술적인 계통연계 지침을 일일이 해석하지 않더라도, 연계 적합여부를 손쉽고 자동적으로 판단해주는 평가시스템을 개발하였다.

Hydraulic vane pumps are widely used in various hydraulic systems because of its compactness and light weight. It is well known that the vanes and cam ring are separated by very thin liquid films which result in the EHL state. Contrary to the case of cylindrical roller bearings, the inlet and side boundary pressures are much higher than the atmospheric pressure. In this paper, a numerical solution of the EHL of finite line contacts between the cam ring and vane tip with profiled ends is presented. Using a finite difference method with non-uniform grids and the Newton-Raphson method, converged solutions are obtained for moderate load and material parameters. The EHL pressure distribution and film shape are considerably affected by pump delivery pressure and the side boundary condition applied. Both the maximum pressure and the minimum film thickness always occurred near the edge regions. The present results can be used in the design of optimum vane profile in hydraulic vane pump.

An experimental study was performed to investigate the liquid breakup and atomization characteristics in electrohydrodynamic atomization according to the changing of experimental parameters such as nozzle size, fluid flow, and electrical intensity. An original electrohydrodynamic atomizer equipment was designed and manufactured for the analysis of spray visualization and the exploration of relationship between applied power and the behavior of liquid atomization. The image processing technique by using the back-illumination method was applied to visualize the distilled liquid breakup process and to examine the variation of the droplet size distribution. The results show that the spray modes of electrohydrodynamic atomization are closelyconnected by the strength of the electric stresses at the surface of the liquid film and the kinetic energy of the liquid jet leaving the needle tip.
