The real-time dynamic rating system(DRS) can provide the maximum ampacity within required periods, so it can help the transmission-line operation more safely and efficiently. Because the conductor temperature is the main limit of increasing rating current, conductor temperature monitoring(CTM) technology is the basic to DRS. In this paper, real-time CTM was developed for 345kV XLPE cable in tunnel and we have also compared the CTM result of this study with the result according to IEC 287 and JCS 168 thermal parameters.

As power systems grow more complex and power demands increase, the fault current tends to gradually increase. In the near future, the fault current will exceed a circuit breaker rating for some substations, which is an especially important issue in the Seoul metropolitan area because of its highly meshed configuration. Currently, the Korean power system is regulated by changing the 154kV system configuration from a loop connection to a radial system, by splitting the bus where load balance can be achieved, and by upgrading the circuit breaker rating. A development project applying 154kV Superconducting Fault Current Limiter (SFCL) to 154kV transmission systems is proceeding with implementation slated for after 2010. In this paper, SFCL is applied to reduce the fault current in power systems according to two different application schemes and their technical impacts are evaluated. The results indicate that both application schemes can regulate the fault current under the rating of circuit breaker, however, applying SFCL to the bus-tie location is much more appropriate from an economic view point.

Thermal rating or lifetime evaluation for aged overhead transmission line becomes more important concerns with respect to keeping power delivery stable having proper capability. Both load rating and dip/clearance are essential factors to determine transmission capacity. In order to evaluate thermal rating and conductor lifetime for domestic transmission lines with double-circuit, the dip/ground clearance standards as well as the electrical equipment technical standard are examined. Conductor temperature and dip are calculated under the assumption of a contingency, and then, a method to up-rate load capacity is searched. As thermal rating and limit dip for aged conductor are properly evaluated, an improved strategy in order to guarantee the existing power system reliability is presented in this paper.

Issues and themes concerned with nuclear power plant uprating are examined. Attention is brought to the fact that many candidate nuclear power plants for uprating have anyway been operated below their rated power for a significant part of their operating life. The key issues remain safety and reliability in operation at all times, irrespective of the nuclear power plant's chronological or design age or power rating. The effects of power uprates are discussed in terms of material aspects and expected demands on the systems, structures and components. The impact on operation and maintenance methods is indicated in terms of changes to the ageing surveillance programmes. Attention is brought to the necessity checking or revising operator actions after power up-rating has been implemented.

We studied on the dependency of parameters which those were used to design a ballast of ICP light source. These parameters were derived from Barkhausen criterion equation about the oscillating condition of ballast. Comparing with a change of turns, we can suggest that a change of l is suitable to control a $I_p$ of an ICP light source. According to the Z-l equation, we can find an optimum rating power of ICP light sources corresponding to l.

Superconducting synchronous generators and motors are designed based on 2 dimensional electro-magnetic approach. In the case of generator, if the machine output rating and terminal voltage are decided the armature rating current will be decided automatically according to its power factor. However, in the case of motor, if the output rating is given with [hp] or [kw] units, the armature terminal voltage and current are not decided directly because the machines armature input power and mechanical output are different by way of losses. So in order to calculate the armature current more accurately. the machine losses must be included in the design procedure. In this paper the machine loss of superconducting motor are analyzed and used for decision of the armature input power and current. Moreover, the differences of voltage equations between superconducting synchronous generator and motor are considered.

Referring to the calculation of the continuous permissible current rating in 22.9kV CN/CV underground distribution power cables, the current and temperature have been fully discussed and analyzed based on their three different values: one is the actually measured value throughout our test and the other two are calculated in connection with different specifications IEC-287 and JCS-168-D respectively. For this purpose, our test has been carried out with real cables which have been under stress either with induced current or with rating voltage. In the former, the calculated current of IEC-287 shows closer value to the measured one than that of JCS-168-D does. In the latter, there has been little difference on the temperature comparing with that measured without voltage application. Therefore, we think that it is preferable to choose the IEC-287 specification for the calculation of the continuous permissible current rating in the commercially power cables.

Power semiconductors are being currently used as a application of intelligent power inverters to a refrigerator, a washing machine and a vacuum cleaner as well as core parts of industrial system. The rating of semiconductor devices is an important factor in decision on the field of application and the forward blocking voltage is one of factors in decision of the rating. The Power MOS device has a merit of high input impedance, short switching time, and stability in temperature as well known. Power MOS devices are mainly used as switches in the field of power electronics, especially the on-state resistance and breakdown voltage are regarded as the most important parameters. Power MOS devices that enable a small size, a light weight, high-integration and relatively high voltage are required these days. In this paper, we proposed the new lateral power MOS which has forward blocking voltage of 250V and contains trench electrodes and verified manufactural possibility by using TSUPREM-4 that is process simulator.

This study analyzed the factors affecting box office performance of 200 movies released at the Chinese theater in 2015. The results showed that main actor power, online rating, production power, and Chinese film were sighificant factors which influenced box office, while the distribution power, genre, IP utilization and integration of production and distribution were insignificant. These results mean that online marketing factors such as the popularity index of the main actors evaluated on the internet and the online rating are affecting box office performances in Chinese theaters.

The design and performance analysis of a reduced rating autotransformer based thirty-pulse AC-DC converter is carried out for feeding a vector controlled induction motor drive (VCIMD). The configuration of the proposed autotransformer consists of only two single phase transformers, with their windings connected in a T-shape, resulting in simplicity in design, manufacturing and in a reduction in magnetics rating. The design procedure of the autotransformer along with the newly designed interphase transformer is presented. The proposed configuration has flexibility in varying the transformer output voltage ratios as required. The design of the autotransformer can be modified for retrofit applications, where presently a 6-pulse diode bridge rectifier is used. The proposed thirty-pulse AC-DC converter is capable of suppressing less than $29^{th}$ harmonics in the supply current. The power factor is also improved to near unity in the wide operating range of the drive. A comparison of different power quality indices at AC mains and DC bus is demonstrated in a conventional 6-pulse AC-DC converter and the proposed AC-DC converter feeding a VCIMD. A laboratory prototype of the proposed autotransformer based 30-pulse AC-DC converter was developed with test results validating the proposed design and system.
