An ultrasonic power measurement system in milliwatt range was constructed. The ultrasonic power can be determined by measuring the radiation pressure on a target using self-compensating microbalance. Measurement was performed using a perfect reflector and a perfect absorber. In order to check the feasibility of the system, the ultrasonic power for the two targets was measured. Also, the systematic measurement errors and the reproducibility were examined. The relative error between two targets is proved to be within 2%. Also when the ultrasonic power range is larger than 10mW, the standard deviation for repeated measurement becomes smaller than ${\pm}$2%.

The wind turbine system, one of the distributed resource, has a large effect on the distribution system. because windfarm is located in the end part of the distribution system, the hilly section and the shore, which is easy to obtain the wind energy, it is difficult to manage the voltage and the power quality. Therefore this paper deals with the measurement and assessment of power quality characteristic of wind turbines with IEC 61400-21.

A frequency in electrical power system changes by the load fluctuation in utility grid, has an influence on a connected generator, and ultimately brings a big trouble in the power system. Therefore, a quick measurement of system frequency and governor control of power system is a very important factor in the reliability and the economic feasibility. In this study, An improve algorithm that measures the power system frequency quickly and accurately is suggested, simulated by using Matlab and programmed using C code through DSP6713 KIT. This algorithm is tested to the arbitrary voltage waveform input. The results show that the suggested algorithm is effective in the accurate and quick frequency measurements.

Most of the loads in industrial power distribution systems are balanced and connected to three power systems. However, in the user power distribution systems, most of the loads are single & three phase and unbalanced, generating voltage unbalance. Voltage unbalance factor is mainly affected by load system rather than stable power system. Unbalanced voltage will draw a highly unbalanced current. As a result, the three-phase currents may differ considerably, thus resulting in an increased temperature rise in the machine. This paper presents a scheme on the characteristics of voltage and current unbalance factor under the load variation at the three phase 4-wire system. Load unbalance factor is measured by the power quality measurement apparatus and compared by the current unbalance factor. Two methods are indicated similar results. The voltage unbalance factor of the three-phase 4-wire system is approved by the field measurement. Each phase has an impedance each other by the unbalanced operation pattern and give rise to voltage unbalance.

Condition based maintenance(CBM) for the preventive diagnosis of important equipments related to safety or accident in power plant is essential by using the suitable methods based on actual power plant conditions. To improve the reliability and accuracy of the measured value at the minute leak situation, and also to monitor continuously internal leak condition of power plant valve, the development of a diagnosis and monitoring technique using multi-measuring method should be performed urgently. This study was conducted to estimate the feasibility of multi-measuring method using three different methods such as acoustic emission(AE) method, thermal image measurement and temperature difference$({\Delta}T)$ measurement that are applicable to internal leak diagnosis for the power plant valve. From the experimental results, it was suggested that the multi-measuring method could be an effective way to precisely diagnose and evaluate internal leak situation of valve.

The Auto-synchronizer is essential equipment for synchronizing a generator to the power system. It is performing that measurement of the magnitude, frequency and phase of the voltage signal of the power system and generator. It is important to select the appropriate measurement algorithm for preventing various problem such as mechanical stress and Electrical problem. Teager Energy Operator(TEO) and Discrete separation algorithm(DESA) is measurable the instantaneous parameters of a sine wave using 5 samples and can be measured at a fast and with a simple operation. Therefore it has many advantages in measuring the parameters. In this paper, it confirmed measurement results using matlab simulations when there are synchronized in order of frequency, magnitude. Also it presented methods using digital filters and sample intervals to improve accuracy.

In this paper, we designed and implemented the 60W DC characteristic measurement system for semiconductor devices. The proposed system is composed of 2 SMU(Source and Measure Unit)s, 2 HPU(High power Unit)s, 2VSU(Voltage Source Unit)s, and 2 VMU(Voltage Measurement Unit)s. HPU can source/measure voltage from -200V to 200V and source/measure current from -3A to 3A within 60W. Experimental results show that the implemented system can measure the power devices such as power BJT, regulator IC, and voltage detector.

The performance test is conducted for the purpose of determining the accurate thermal performance of the power generation facility or deriving the factors of thermal efficiency degradation. Compared to the acquisition method of power plant thermal performance test data by compensating cable or transmission cable, performance test using wireless instrument can acquire digital data in order to shorten the period due to installation and demolition of instrument and enhance safety of workers and relatively accurate data can be acquired thereby improving work efficiency. Wireless instruments have already been introduced to the market a long time ago, and some of them are used in industry such as petrochemical industry. However, there is no example which has been conducted for performance test of power generation facilities. In order to apply power generation facilities, a reliable system capable of acquiring performance data smoothly without affecting the control system is required. The wireless measurement system can eliminate the measurement defects and errors such as the damage due to the movement of the connecting cable, the extension due to the extension of the shield wire, the contact failure at the contact point between the measuring sensor and the connecting wire, This method has the advantage of collecting relatively accurate performance test data.

Considering biological safety, it is very important to measure acoustic power from ultrasonic array probe for diagnostic ultrasound imaging applications. In this paper, to measure acoustic power from each element on array probe for ultrasonic diagnostic equipment, we reconstruct and automate the acoustic power measurement system. The acoustic power from linear, phased and curved array were measured and analyzed. As a result of measurement, the effects caused by directivity of sound beam from curved array were founded. To remove these effects, we developed and applied the correction model. The proposed system is useful to evaluate characteristics of the acoustical output power of array probe.

Limitation countermeasure on harmonics occurred by power conversion installation, motor speed control equipment, and so on of power system is very important problem, and first of all, accuracy harmonics analysis in system is required for appropriate limitation counterplan. Analysis and judgement on power system harmonic by measurement are needed because analysis by mathematical model generally used for these harmonic analysis, if nonlinear ingredient is included in system, is not relatively correct. So, in this paper, system to measure and analyze harmonic by installing it in a power system, using DSP(Digital Signal Processor), is designed and developed. Also, it's performance is verified by installing it in the system that harmonics occurred.
