  • The SCR in Static Transfer Switch (STS) is used for reliability improvement of important load's power supply in industry field. However an average of 2% fault in thyristor(SCR) occurs, so that the attached mechanical switch is paralleled with SCR's both end points and SCR operates only during the $12{\sim}208$[mS] before operation of the mechanical switch. Also, an ISC (Ideal State Conditioning Interlock Device) - STS system that two power supply paths may not be thrown at the same time is developed to remove the overlap section perfectly when a short or earth fault is generated in one system. This method has reduced the fault rate remarkably through the reduction of SCR's fatigue degree by using SCR in conversion operation corresponding to 0.89 times a year. Also, in case of fault generations, it does not affect to supply power to the load, therefore it contributes to the promotion of reliability in the power supply.

  • Li-Ion battery is used in the most satellites now due to advantages such as weight, thermal dissipation and self discharge compared to the previous generations of electrochemical batteries. The performance analysis model of the Li-Ion battery is needed to aid the design of new satellite electrical power subsystem. This paper develops the performance analysis model of the Li-Ion battery to apply to the electrical power subsystem design and energy balance analysis on geostationary orbit. The analysis model receives the satellite bus power, solar array power and battery temperature and gives the battery voltage, charge and discharge currents, taper index, state of charge and power dissipation. The results from the performance analysis are compared and analyzed with the flight data to verify the model. The compared results show satisfactory without significant difference with the flight data.

  • As penetration level of Distributed Generations (DGs) on weak distribution networks gets higher, voltage rise problem can often occur due to reverse power which is not expected in conventional distribution networks. It, however, cannot be effectively solved by using conventional voltage regulating devices such as On-Load Tap Changers (OLTCs), Step Voltage Regulators (SVRs) because those do not consider the presence of DGs when determining relevant setting parameter for voltage regulation. This paper presents a scheme for voltage regulation using coordinated control between OLTC and DGs which can actively participate in the regulation. The scheme decides which device should be operated first based on the characteristics of regulating devices, in order to prevent unnecessary operation of output changes of DG and excessive tap changing operation of OLTC. Computer simulations considering daily irradiation of PV and load curve are performed by using MATLAB Simulink and performance comparison between the presented scheme and conventional ones is also made. It can be concluded from simulation results that the scheme presented is very effective to regulate voltages in distribution networks with multiple DGs.

  • Distributed generations (DGs) using renewable energy resources in power systems have been widely integrated, and many of these DGs have intermittency. DGs can significantly affect the overall voltage profile of the system through the reactive power control for a voltage support. Therefore, in the planning stage of the optimal operation and dispatch of voltage regulation devices, DGs' hosting capacity with the reactive power control scheme should be considered. In this paper, we model the IEEE 34-bus test feeder, including all essential equipment. An optimization method is utilized to determine the optimal siting and operation of the voltage regulation devices in the presence of DGs with reactive power control scheme. Finally, we compare the optimal results of the each case to analyze the relationship among the hosting capacity of the DGs and voltage regulation devices operation.

  • The primary purpose of this paper is to identify the influencing factors on the new products adoption between countries and generations. For this purpose, a research is developed based on the relevant literature reviews. Data have been collected from 524 persons and were tested by t-test and various statistical methods. The results of this empirical study are summarized as follows. In the cultural factors, the groupism has high discretion in China old generation. The materialism and shopping preference have high discretion in two young generations. There is no difference between the two groups in the distance of power. In innovativeness of personality, Korea and China young generation have high discretion. Innovativeness has high discretion in Korea and China youngs. Cognition and sensory innovativeness are has low discretion in Korea old. In the social risk perception, physiological, functional general and financial risk has high discretion in China old. In risk reducing behavior, the normative taking level and ad, new product adoption has high discretion in Korea and China youngs. But, the influence of others has high discretion in China old generation. The safety and brand reputation are no influences. The findings have a several marketing strategies in generation and countries.

  • This study is a part of the integrated investigation of the design of Yves Saint Laurent, and aims at examining the background of the appearance of art inspiration which the artistic quality and originality are particularly seen. And also, I would like to examine the source of the power that transcends periods, dealing with issues in the design. From the mid 1960 to 1970, Yves Saint Laurent who leaded the global fashion trend, displayed the Art Inspiration works with the innovation of fashion in Paris, rediscovery of the trends and colors in Modern Art, and background of Entourage and so forth. He brought in the various artistic genres to the fashion, and his Haute Couture collections which were created by the passion for the movie and theater art, expressed the freedom through his strong identity in the Modern Art & Culture and the atmosphere of that period. Eventually his works are reappeared transcending the generations as the fundamental power of Modernity, through the restricted line of his own, strong contrast of colors, and insight for the future.

  • In most of radial distribution systems, the overcurrent protection coordination is adopted for the protection of apparatus and the improvement of electrical power system reliability. The protection coordination structure in distribution substation is composed of several circuit breakers(CB) with distribution lines originating from one substation bus under one transformer, which trip for their fault current. But sufficient analysis is necessary for the capacity of CB's in distribution systems with several distribution generations(DG). In this paper, a protection coordination method not to exceed the traditional capacity of CB's was proposed and certified through simulation by the PSCAD-EMTDC S/W.

  • The global warming of the Korean Peninsula proceeds most rapidly in the world and its abnormal climate is more deepening. In the result of the surged electricity consumption by intense heat of summer and severe cold of winter, electricity supply and demand status is in hard situation. Currently, the supply of natural gas is increased because natural gas has the lowest greenhouse-gas emissions among the existed fossil fuel. Natural gas cooling has a lot of advantage such as decreasing electricity peak, reducing construction expenses in additional power plant, operating natural gas storage facilities efficiently, and playing a role as distributed generations. Therefore, this study analyzes the economic feasibilities of gas cooling as an alternative for electric power load management.

  • Reliability-Centered Maintenance plan for maintenance schedule of generating unit is being assessed in this paper. Maintenance schedule is a key index that can be used to determine stability and cost. In this paper, stochastic FMECA is described for the life assessment by using probability distribution, and combustion-turbine generations in Korean power systems have been assessed for maintenance schedule. Such an assessment can be a useful guide for maintenance plans in restructured power industry.
