This paper presents a technique that can obtain an optimal solution for the Security-Constrained Economic Dispatch (SCED) problems using the Interior Point Method (IPM) while taking into account of the power flow constraints. The SCED equations are formulated by using only the real power flow equations from the optimal power flow. Then an algorithm is presented that can linearize the SCED equations based on the relationships among generation real power outputs, loads, and transmission losses to obtain the optimal solutions by applying the linear programming (LP) technique. Finally, the application of the Primal Interior Point Method (PIPM) for solving the optimization problem based on the proposed linearized objective function is presented. The results are compared with the Simplex Method and the Promising results ard obtained.

This Paper compares two mathematical decomposition coordination methods to implementing the distributed optimal Power flow(OPF) using the regional decomposition: the Auxiliary Problem Principle(APP) and the Alternating Direction Method(ADM), a variant of the conventional Augmented Lagrangian approach. A case study was performed with IEEE 50-bus system.

In Korea, power requirement has been increasing. But the large generation unit is hardly installed because of economic and environment problem. Therefore, the concern of dispersed generation system(DGS) is growing. The power distribution system is generally operated with radial type. The protection system is composed of one directive source. But power distribution system inserted DGS changes it to two directive source system. Therefore, the insertion of DGS has the problem of protection coordination. In this paper, we argue fault current affected by interconnected DGS. We analyze fault current flow affected by DGS placement. Then, we find protective coordination problem. Consequently, we study advance point for protection scheme of power system interconnected DGS.

Recent power quality measurement projects report that voltage sags are the most frequent disturbances in the sites [1]-[4]. DVRs were emerged as the best effective and economic solution for this problem [11]. This paper analyzed the power flow of a DVR in distribution grids. This paper showed various operation modes and boundaries such as inductive operation, capacitive operation, and minimal power operation beside the in-phase compensation.

This paper presents a scheme to solve the congestion problem using hybrid control with phase-shifting transformer(PST) and power generation in power systems. A good design of PST and power generation control can improve total transfer capability(TTC) in interconnected systems. This paper deals with an application of optimization technique for TTC calculation. The optimization method is used to maximize power flow of tic line subject to security constraints such as voltage magnitude and real power flow. The proposed method is applied to 10 machines 39 buses model systems to show its effectiveness.

A high-performance rectifier is introduced in this study. The proposed rectifier combines the conventional pulse width modulation, soft commutation, and instantaneously average line current control techniques to promote circuit performance. The voltage stresses of the main switches in the rectifier are lower than those in conventional rectifier topologies. Moreover, conduction losses of switches in the rectifier are certainly lower than those in conventional rectifier topologies because the power current flow path when the main switches are turned on includes two main power semiconductors and the power current flow path when the main switches are turned off includes one main power semiconductor. The rectifier also adopts a ZCS-PWM auxiliary circuit to derive the ZCS function for power semiconductors. Thus, the problem of switching losses and EMI can be improved. In the control strategy, the controller uses the average current control mode to achieve fixed-frequency current control with stability and low distortion. A prototype has been implemented in the laboratory to verify circuit theory.

It is shown that the power flow considering the voltage characteristic of the composite load has some difference comparing with conventional load flow in this paper. When the load flow is used in a study of the static voltage stability, it is necessary to consider the voltage characteristic of load, since the composite load of a typical power system bas constant power, constant current, and constant impedance characteristic. The load is modeled to a polynomial form in here, and used in solving the load flow problem. In this way, the effect which the voltage characteristic of the load has on several voltage collapse proximity indicator based on sensitivities is compared with the conventional load flow, or with another load model having a different voltage characteristic. In this paper, the voltage collapse proximity indicator using the sensitivity of real power for transmission loss is also proposed, and compared with other indicators.

The insulating oils perform a cooling and insulation action in electric power transformer. The mineral oil has immanent fire dangerousness and environmental contamination problem. Vegetable insulating oil has higher ignition point, flash point and more excellent biodegradability than conventional mineral oil. In a real oil-filled transformers, some of the power is dissipated in the form of heat. And transformer require the heat to be removed from the winding and insulator by forced convection of the insulating oil. The flow electrification occurs when insulating oil was forced to be circulated. In this paper, influence of temperature, velocity of flow, and insulating pipe and diameter on streaming electrification of vegetable insulating oil was investigated using forced circulation apparatus. Temperature effects were most significant, and it showed a peak in the temperature $30^{\circ}C$ to $35^{\circ}C$ at insulating and copper pipe. The change of flow electrification according to area variety could be checked by change of diameter.

Almost 70% of the earth is covered by the ocean. Extracting the power available in the ocean using a wave energy converter has been seen to be eco-friendly and renewable. This study focuses on developing a method for analyzing a wave energy device that uses a cross-flow turbine. The motion of the ocean wave causes an internal bi-directional flow of water and the cross-flow turbine is able to rotate in one direction. This device is considered of double-hull structure, and because of this structure, sea water does not come into contact with theturbine. Due to this, the problem of befouling on the turbine is avoided. This study shows specific relationship for wave length and several motions.
