KEPCO constructed the first 765kV 2 circuit transmission line in the world with its home grown technologies. Through this 765kV transmission system project, KEPCO accumulated experience and technologies related to the 765 kV power system. Based on the successful completion of the 765kV transmission project, KEPCO is conducting overseas business by using its abundant experience and know-how. In particular, KEPCO developed the training course for power system, called the ATT (Advanced Transmission Technology) training courses for overseas business, especially for developing countries. Therefore, KEPCO developed the "Transmission line design system for overseas projects". This system supports the calculation of wind pressure load, tower design, wire selection, insulation design, etc. by applying the meteorological data of foreign countries and design standards. And this system is applied to the training program so that the trainees can design the optimal transmission line for their own countries.

Unintentional islanding results in safety hazards, power quality degradation, and many other issues. Thus, islanding detection of grid-connected distributed generation system is a key function for standards compliance. Many anti-islanding schemes are currently being studied; however, existing anti-islanding schemes used in inverters have power quality degradation and non-detection zone issues. Therefore, this paper analyzes existing anti-islanding schemes by using frequency drift in accordance with both islanding detection performance and power quality. This paper also proposes a new anti-islanding scheme by using frequency drift. Both simulation and experimental results show that the proposed scheme has negligible power quality degradation and no non-detection zones compared with other existing schemes.

NFPA-803 has been referred as the Fire Protection Standard at the Nuclear Power Plants of Pressurized Water Reactor. This Standard has been used as the fire protection regulation, containing prescriptive requirements with deterministic methodology. Recently, with cumulative efforts by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission and Utilities in America to establish a new Standard, including a quantitative evaluation methodology, NFPA-805, the Performance-Based Standard for FIRE Protection for Light Water Reactor Electric Generating Plants was issued and approved by the American National Standards Institute as an American National Standard with an effective date of February 9, 2001. This paper presents an analysis result from the computer modeling for the fire simulation In addition, it proposes the idea that this kind of analytic method can be available for the facilities design of fire prevention and protection fields, as well as an evaluation for the fire suppression system with a quantitative analysis for the thermal phenomena in fire compartments in Nuclear Power Plants.

The necessity of compact high temperature superconducting cables is more keenly felt in densely populated metropolitan areas. Because the compact high-temperature superconducting cables can be installed in ducts and tunnels, thereby reducing construction costs and making the use of underground space more effective, the effect of introducing it to the power system will be huge. Seoul, Korea, is selected as a review model for this paper. The loads are estimated by scenario based on a survey and analysis of 345kV and 154kV power supply networks in this area. Based on this, the following elements for an urban transmission system are examined. (1) A method of constructing a model system to introduce high-temperature superconducting cables to metropolitan areas is presented. (2) A case study is conducted through the analysis of power demand scenarios, and the amount of high-temperature superconducting cable to be introduced by scenario is examined. (3) The economy involved in expanding existing cables and introducing high-temperature superconducting cables(ducts or tunnels) following load increase in urban areas is examined and compared., and standards for current cable ducts are calculated. (4) The voltage level that can be accommodated by existing ducts is examined.

Currently government certified test method for an automobile remanufactured products is insufficient. Thus many automotive parts in the remanufacturing market are lacking proper evaluation criteria and production of defective products are causing customer dissatisfaction. In this paper a power steering oil pump, which requires stringent manufacturing standards, is studied by the failure mode and effect analysis approach. The research suggested that the test criteria such as discharge flow characteristic test, tightness test, pulley run-out test, pressure switch operation test, low temperature test and rotation pressure durability test should be performed to evaluate the reliability of remanufactured power steering oil pumps. As a result of tests, the performance of remanufactured power steering oil pump satisfied the evaluation criteria of pressure switch operation test and low temperature test. However, the remanufactured power steering oil pump failed to satisfy the evaluation criteria on discharge performance test, tightness test and pulley run-out test. These performance evaluation tests proved the necessity of standard process for the remanufactured power steering oil pump.

A three-phase, three-switch, and three-level boost-type PWM rectifier (Vienna rectifier) is proposed as an active front-end power factor correction (PFC) rectifier for telecom loads. The proposed active front-end PFC rectifier system is modeled by the switching cycle average model. The relation between duty ratios and DC link capacitor voltages is derived in terms of the system input currents. Furthermore, the feasible switching states are identified and applied to the proposed system to reduce the switching stress and DC ripples. A detailed equivalent circuit analysis of the proposed front-end PFC rectifier is conducted, and its performance is verified through simulations in MATLAB. Simulation results are verified using an experimental setup of an active front-end PFC rectifier that was developed in the laboratory. Simulation and experimental results demonstrate the improved power quality parameters that are in accordance with the IEEE and IEC standards.

Purpose: The core problem of this study is that there are no specific noise regulation standards for domestic blasting work. Currently, the domestic blasting work noise regulation standard has not been established separately, and the noise regulation standard of 80 decibels is corrected by 10 decibels to 70 decibels, which is the daily living noise standard. In contrast, many foreign countries have separate noise regulation standards specifically tailored to blasting work. Accordingly, it is intended to present international reasonable blasting noise standards by comparing domestic and foreign blasting work noise regulation standards. Mmethod: This study can be inferred as a comparative analysis of domestic and foreign noise regulation standards. Data on the current noise regulation standards during domestic blasting and noise regulation standards during blasting operations in the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, Japan, and China are collected and analyzed. Results: According to the study, the noise regulation value during blasting work at domestic construction sites was not separately established, so it was not properly tailored to the specific and characteristics of blasting noise. In the case of overseas, a realistic noise regulation value was established so that a safer, more efficient and eco-friendly blasting method could be applied to the noise regulation value uniformly during blasting work. Conclusion: In this study, it is hoped that noise regulations will be established during reasonable blasting work, as shown in domestic and international comparative studies, and will be widely adopted without interfering with the introduction of efficient, economical, and eco-friendly blasting methods by complying well with blasting safety standards.

The DNP3.0 and the IEC61850 are the most important standards in the SCADA systems for the power. Each standard has strength and weakness, so they will coexist for a while. This paper presents a design of the gateway function between DNP3.0 and IEC61850. Both standards use object-oriented modelling methods, so, they have some similarities. However, the DNP3.0 objects are described by object number and index, and the IEC61850 objects are described by name. So there should be mapping function between the object number and index of DNP3.0 objects and the object name of IEC61850 objects. We analyse the communication profiles of both standards, and shows the service-primitive mapping table and the procedure of the gateway function.

We herein propose a calibration method for a sampling oscilloscope. The proposed method can correct the systematic errors in the oscilloscope such as time-based distortion and impedance mismatch. In addition, it can accurately estimate the residual jitter that remains after a time-based correction and the scale factor that varies in accordance with the setting of the pulse generator. The proposed method is validated thorough the comparison and verification with the power meter, and the uncertainty of the measurement method is analyzed.

Because patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) have depressed vagal modulation and the mortality risk from acute myocardial infarction is lower in patients with higher vagal modulation, methods that can increase vagal modulation are desirable in patients with CAD. We intended to inspect the effect of recumbent posture on vagal modulation. By using angiography, 33 patients with abnormal (CAD group) and 33 patients with normal coronary arteries (control group) were studied. The nonlinear as well as the linear characteristics of heart rate variability (HRV) were analyzed on these patients in three recumbent postures: namely, the supine, right lateral decubitus, and left lateral decubitus postures. The lower the normalized high-frequency power (nHF) in the supine or left lateral decubitus posture, the higher the increase in the nHF when the posture was changed from supine or left lateral decubitus to right lateral decubitus in both groups of patients. Right lateral decubitus posture can lead to the highest vagal modulation and the lowest sympathetic modulation among the three recumbent postures in both normal and patients with CAD. Therefore, the right lateral decubitus posture can be used as an effective physiologic vagal enhancer in patients with CAD.
