발전소의 성능을 효율적으로 관리 및 유지하기 위한 발전소 성능평가는 매우 중요한 절차이다. 하지만 기존의 성능평가 방식은 엑셀 기반의 수작업 방식이다 보니 준비절차가 복잡하고, 범용성이 떨어지는 문제가 있었다. 이에 본 논문에서는 기존 성능평가 시스템의 문제점을 분석하고, 설비를 효과적으로 모델링하고 누락된 물성치를 계산하며, 이를 바탕으로 자동 지표계산을 수행하는 설비 모델러를 통해 성능평가의 범용성, 효율성 및 정확성을 높이는 방법을 기술하고자 한다.

This paper considers a performance analysis of set-top box (STB) power saving schemes. STB converts the signal into content which is then displayed on the television (TV) screen, and there are typically two operation modes: on mode and stand-by mode. The total energy consumption (TEC), a typical measure of power consumption of STB, is defined by the sum of power consumption in each mode. Recently there are some works of STB power saving schemes that transit STB operation modes efficiently, and the mode transition time point of those schemes can be different. Thus it is required to develop a performance evaluation method that reflects mode transition time points of each scheme to get TEC correctly. This paper proposes a performance evaluation method for STB power consumption using Poisson process to consider the mode transition time point. By modeling STB mode transitions as events of Poisson process, the average time duration of STB mode is computed and accordingly the effect of power saving is evaluated. The performance evaluation result shows that the proposed method achieves 1 to 19% improvement in power consumption compared with a conventional performance evaluation method.

Based on the characteristics of 'Korean electric power industry R&D programs', this study proposes a new performance evaluation framework where electric power industry related R&D projects are scrutinized. The abovementioned R&D programs have their own goals and especially they emphasize the effectiveness as well as the efficiency of each subordinate R&D project. Hence, in this framework, a performance evaluation procedure is established and then a mathematical model is developed according to the procedure. The model calculates performance evaluation indices for a set of R&D projects integrating the effectiveness with the efficiency of each R&D project. In a case study with an empirical dataset, statistical significance is tested on the integrated performance evaluation indices of R&D projects regarding organizational types and program categories considered.

The heat transfer function or thermal performance is the most important function of the steam generator component in nuclear power plants. The declining of thermal performance, fouling does not affect the electric power of the nuclear power plant within a certain fouling level, but it affects the output when goes beyond the governor valve wide open of the turbine. The VWO steam pressure can be predicted through the thermal performance evaluation of steam generators in the nuclear power plant. In consideration of the fouling characteristics of the steam generator, methods of the thermal performance evaluation and fouling cases are reviewed, and also the critical VWO value is estimated through the actual thermal performance evaluation. It is necessary to apply the VWO theory based on the thermal performance of the steam generators.

Power generation systems based on the oxy-coal combustion with carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) capability are being proposed and discussed lately. Although a large number of lab scale studies for oxy-coal power plant have been made, studies of pilot scale or commercial scale power plant are not enough. Only a few demonstration projects for oxy-coal power plant are publicized recently. The proposed systems are evolving and various alternatives are to be comparatively evaluated. This paper presents a proposed approach for performance evaluation of a commercial 100 MWe class power plant, which is currently being considered for 'retrofitting' for the demonstration of the concept. The system is configurated based on design and operating conditions with proper assumptions. System components to be included in the discussion are listed. Evaluation criteria in terms of performance are summarized based on the system heat and mass balance and simple performance parameters, such as the fuel to power efficiency and brief introduction of the second law analysis. Also, gas composition is identified for additional analysis to impurities in the system including the purity of oxygen and unwanted gaseous components of nitrogen, argon and oxygen in air separation unit and $CO_2$ processing unit.

본 연구는 해양소수력발전소에서의 튜블러 수차의 성능평가를 위한 현장시험 및 그 결과에 대한 내용을 포함하고 있다. 현장시험용 수차의 발전기 최소출력은 측정된 유효낙차, 출력 그리고 효율을 이용하여 검토되었다. 정격 및 최대 출력시험은 수차 설치현장의 조수간만의 차에 의한 영으로 인하여 동일한 실험조건을 확보할 수 없었기 때문에 모델시험에 의한 성능 데이터를 이용하여 환산된 값을 사용하였다. 현장시험에 의한 수차의 성능은 최소출력, 정격출력, 최대출력 운전점에서 보증출력 및 보증효율을 만족시키는 결과를 나타냄을 확인하였다.

This paper presents a performance evaluation of real-time Linux for industrial real-time platforms. On industrial platforms, multicore processors are popular due to their work distribution efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Multicore processors, however, are not designed for applications with real-time constraints, and their performance capabilities depend on their core configurations. In order to assess the feasibility of a multicore processor for real-time applications, we conduct a performance evaluation of a general processor and a low-power processor to provide an experimental environment of real-time Linux on both Xenomai and RT-preempt considering the multicore configuration. The real-time performance is evaluated through scheduling latency and in an environment with loads on the CPU, memory, and network to consider an actual situation. The results show a difference between a low-power and a general-purpose processor, but from developer's point of view, it shows that the low-power processor is a proper solution to accommodate low power situations.

Large-scale High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) wind power generators suffer from high electromagnetic force and high torque due to their high current density and low rotational speed. Therefore, the torque and Lorentz force of HTS wind power generators should be carefully investigated. In this paper, we proposed a Performance Evaluation System (PES) to physically test the structural stability of HTS coils with high torque before fabricating the generator. The PES is composed of the part of a pole-pair of the HTS generator for estimating the characteristic of the HTS coil. The 10 MW HTS generator and PES were analyzed using a 3D finite element method software. The performance of the HTS coil was evaluated by comparing the magnetic field distributions, the output power, and torque values of the 10 MW HTS generator and the PES. The magnetic flux densities, output power, and torque values of the HTS coils in the PES were the same as a pole-pair of the 10 MW HTS generator. Therefore, the PES-based evaluation method proposed in this paper can be used to estimate the critical characteristics of the HTS generator under high magnetic field and high torque before manufacturing the HTS wind turbines. These results will be used effectively to research and manufacture large-scale HTS wind turbine generators.

본 논문에서는 내진설계가 고려되어 있지 않은 전력구를 포함한 기설 개착식 전력구 100개소를 대상으로, 정부의 요구수준(내진 특등급, 0.22 g)을 만족하는지 확인하기 위하여 내진성능 평가를 수행하였다. 내진성능 평가 결과, 대상 전력구들은 대부분 0.3-1 g의 내진성능을 보유하고 있는 것으로 나타나, 내진 특등급 수준을 만족하였으며 내진안전성을 확보하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 한편 응답변위법에 의한 전력구의 내진성능 평가 방법 및 결과에 대한 타당성을 확인하고, 전력구의 내진 안전성을 검증하기 위한 지진응답 해석 및 구조실험을 수행하였다. 그 결과 0.22 g 수준의 지진 하에서 응답변위법에 의한 상대변위는 지진응답 해석 결과보다 보수적이었으며, 실규모 구조실험에 의한 하중-변위 곡선 및 응답수정계수 산정 결과를 통해 전력구의 내진 안전성을 확인할 수 있었다.
