This paper presents the effect of the voltage proximity index for the voltage collpase in power systems. The reactive generation limits are considered for the determination of the voltage proximity index. This paper also shows how the VAR investment ranking order works by the sensitivity index(proximity index). Simulation has carried out with the IEEE 14 bus system and has shown the voltage proximity index working well.

In this paper, the on-line system schemes for coordinated control system of multiple FACTS were presented to enhance the voltage stability around the metropolitan areas. In order to coordinated control system of FACTS devices, MFC on-line system calculates the optimal set point(Vref, Qrev) of FACTS devices using the coordinated control algorithm with real time network data which is transferred from SCADA/EMS system. If the system is unstable after contingencies, the new operation set-point of FACTS would be determined using bus sensitivity from tangent vector at voltage instability point. Otherwise, we would determine the new operation set-point of FACTS for considering economical operation, like as active power loss minimization using Optimal Power Flow algorithm. As the test, MFC(Multiple FACTS Coordinated control) on-line system will be installed in Korea power system.

This paper proposes the FACTS site selection method using subtransmission system reduction. A general method which uses the sensitivity of the variation in voltage and reactive power has been used to determine the location of shunt type FACTS device, but there is a difficulty to finding a proper location due to the overestimation of the effect of sub-transmission systems. Therefore, there is a need to reduce sub-transmission system for finding an effective location of shunt type FACTS devices such as SVC(Static Var Compensator), STATCOM(Static Synchronous Compesator), and so on.

An integrated Mach-Zehnder interferometric sensor operating at 632.8 nm was designed and fabricated by the technology of planar rib waveguides. Rib waveguide based on silica system ($SiO_2-SiO_xN_y-SiO_2$) was geometrically designed to have single mode operation and high sensitivity. It was structured by semiconductor fabrication processes such as thin film deposition, photolithography, and RIE (Reactive Ion Etching). With the power observation, propagation loss measurement by cut-back method showed about 4.82 dB/cm for rib waveguides. Additionally the chromium mask process for an etch stop was employed to solve the core damaging problem in patterning the sensing zone on the chip. Refractive index measurement of water/ethanol mixture with this device finally showed a sensitivity of about $\pi$/($4.04{\times}10^{-3}$).

With power level of grid-connected converters rising, the switching frequency of the switching devices is commonly greatly reduced to improve its power capacity. However, this results in serious couplings of the dq current components, which leads to degradation of the static and dynamic performances of grid-connected converters and fluctuations of the reactive power in dynamic processes. In this paper, complex vector models under low switching frequency are established for an L/LCL grid-connected converter, and the relationship between the switching frequency and the coupling degree is analyzed. In addition, a series decoupling current control strategy is put forward. It is shown that the proposed control strategy can eliminate the couplings, improve the performances and have good robustness to parameter variations through static and dynamic characteristics analyses and a sensitivity analysis. Experimental and simulation results also verify the correctness of the theoretical analyses and the superiority of the proposed control strategy.

$MoO_3$ thin films were deposited on electrode and heater screen-printed alumina substrates in $O_2$ atmosphere by RF reactive sputtering using Molybdenum metal target. The deposition was performed at $300^{\circ}C$ with 350W of a forward power in an $Ar-O_2$ atmosphere. The working pressure was maintained at $3{\times}10^{-2}mtorr$ and all deposited films were annealed at $500^{\circ}C$ for 5hours. To investigate gas sensing characteristics of the addition doped $MoO_3$ thin film, Co, Ni and Pt were used as adding dopants. The sensing properties were investigated in tenn of gas concentration under exposure of reducing gases such as $H_2$, $NH_3$ and CO at optimum working temperature. Co-doped $MoO_3$ thin film shows the maximum 46.8% of sensitivity in $NH_3$ and Ni-doped $MoO_3$ thin film exhibits 49.7% of sensitivity in $H_2$.

MoO$_3$thin films were deposited on electrode of alumina substrates in $O_2$atmosphere by RF reactive sputtering using molybdenum metal target. The deposition was performed at 30$0^{\circ}C$ with 350 W of a forward power in an Ar-O$_2$atmosphere. The working pressure was maintained at 3$\times$10$^{-2}$ torr and all deposited films were annealed at 50$0^{\circ}C$ for 5 hours. The surface morphology of films was observed by using a SEM and crystalline phases were analyzed by using a XRD. To investigate gas sensing characteristics of the doped MoO$_3$thin film, Co, Ni and Pt were used as dopants. The sensing properties were investigated in term of gas concentration under exposure of reducing gases such as H$_2$, NH$_3$and CO at optimum working temperature. Co-doped MoO3 thin film shows the maximum 46.8 % of sensitivity in NH$_3$ and Ni-doped MoO$_3$thin film exhibits 49.7 % of sensitivity in H$_2$.

계통의 전압 불안정 현상은 다양한 무효전력 공급 설비를 통해 회복될 수 있다. 발전기를 통한 무효전력 공급은 유효전력 출력의 저감으로 이어질 수 있으며, 여기서 기회비용의 발생 가능성이 존재한다. 또한 상정사고가 발생하면 계통의 전압을 안정한 상태로 유지하기 위해 발전기의 적정 무효전력 예비력을 확보하는 것이 필요하다. 하지만 현재 국내에서는 발전사업자가 적정한 무효전력 예비력을 확보하고, 계통의 전압이 떨어지는 경우에 무효전력을 공급하여 안정된 전압을 유지하는 무효전력 보조서비스 제도가 없는 실정이다. 본 연구는 무효전력 보조서비스 제도 도입 준비의 일환으로 발전기의 무효전력 공급에 대한 부하 모선의 민감도를 분석하였다.

This paper proposes an optimal load shedding algorithm by which the system loss can be minimized when the load shedding is unavoidable in case of severe contingency such as the outage of key generators or lines. Shedding load .DELTA.S = .DELTA.P + J.DELTA.Q(MVA) is performed on the weakest bus (on the view of voltage stability), step by step, by the priority of the I.DELTA. = SQRT(.lambda.$\_$P/$\^$2/ + .lambda.$\_$Q/$\^$2/) index given for each load bus, where .lambda.$\_$P/ and .lambda.$\_$Q/ are the sensitivity indices representing the system loss variation versus active and reactive power change of the bus load bus. All loads are assumed to be constant power loads for convenience. A 5 bus sample system proves the effectiveness of the algorithm proposed.
