Physical One-way Transfer, one of network Separating Network Technologies, shut off intrusion possibilities by removing data transfer line from external network to internal network. Physical One-way Transfer technology can not support legacy services based duplex transmission. Legacy services operating need agent for extra service with the support. But, Agent development have problems with adding cost and open internal protocols. In this papers, We analyzed legacy services between Control network and OA network in working SCADA systems, and based on the results obtained from the analysis, categorized the legacy services into three forms. We propose an agent generation method of the three service categories for Physical One-Way Transfer System. In addition, we design an automatic generation tool using the proposed method.

Smart Grid is the next-generation intelligent power grid that maximizes energy efficiency with the convergence of IT technologies and the existing power grid. It enables consumers to check power rates in real time for active power consumption. It also enables suppliers to measure their expected power generation load, which stabilizes the operation of the power system. However, there are high possibility that various kinds of security threats such as data exposure, data theft, and privacy invasion may occur in interactive communication with intelligent devices. Therefore, to establish a secure environment for responding to such security threat with the smart grid, the key management technique, which is the core of the development of a security mechanism, is required. Using a hash chain, this paper suggests a group key management mechanism that is efficiently applicable to the smart grid environment with its hierarchical structure, and analyzes the security and efficiency of the suggested group key management framework.

Recently, the development of superconducting fault current limiters (SFCLs) has been required as power demands increase in the power system. A distribution-level prototype resistive SFCL using coated conductor (CC) has been developed by Hyundai Heavy Industries Co., Ltd. and Yonsei University for the first time in the world. The ratings of the SFCL are 13.2kV/630A at normal operating condition. A novel non-inductive winding method is used in fabricating coils so there is almost zero impedance during normal operation. The distribution SFCL is cooled by sub-cooled liquid nitrogen $(LN_2)$ of 65K and 3 bar to enhance cryo-dielectric performance, critical current density, and thermal conductivity. In order to make reliable operation of an SFCL in real power systems, we monitored and controled its operation conditions by using supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) method. Thus, a monitoring system for the SFCL employing information technology (IT) is proposed and developed to be on the lookout for the operation conditions such as inside temperature, inside pressure, $LN_2$ level, voltage and current. Since operation temperature should be kept constant, bang-bang control for temperature feedback with a heater attached to the cold head of cryo-cooler is applied to the system. Short-circuit tests with prospective fault current of 10kA and AC dielectric withstand voltage tests up to 143kV for 1 minute were successfully performed at Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute. This paper deals with the development of a distribution level SFCL and its monitoring system for reliable operation.

현재 국내 정수시설은 정수공정별 감시제어-데이터수집시스템(SCADA: Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition)에 기반하여 감시제어 및 모니터링 위주로 운영·관리를 실시하고 있다. 또한, 주요 핵심 공정인 응집제 약품투입, 소독 및 여과 설비 공정의 운영방식에 있어서 선험적 운영지식에 의한 방식으로 운영되고 있기 때문에 지속적인 안정적 운영을 위해서는 표준적이고 체계적인 운영관리 수단이 필요하다. 국외에서는 다양한 운영 조건에 기반한 정수처리 효율을 예측할 수 있는 모의(simulation) 도구의 개발을 통해 기존 운영되고 있는 정수장의 효율을 예측하는 데 활용하고 있는 실정이다. 본 논문은 실시간 운영관리가 가능한 기반을 구축하여 정수처리의 효율을 예측할 수 있는 시뮬레이터 개발을 통해 정수처리 공정별 기본 및 조합의 공정 시뮬레이션 모의 모듈 기술을 개발하기 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 또한 개발된 기술의 실증 운영을 통해 검증된 모듈을 반영한 정수장 시뮬레이터 시스템을 개발을 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 정수장 시뮬레이터는 수질정보, 물질수지, 수두손실등의 운영현황 데이터를 수집하는 기능, 착수-혼화-응집-침전-여과-소독 등 개별 공정별 주요 운전변수의 모니터링 및 제어를 통한 운영관리 기능, 원수 수질변화에 신속한 대응을 위한 정수처리 공정제어 의사결정지원 기능, 그리고 온라인 관망해석을 포함한 정수처리 전(단위)공정 시뮬레이터 기능 및 공정별 운영인자 최적화 기능 등으로 구성되어 있다. 현재 운영 중인 정수장의 공정별 운전 상태를 평가·관리하여 정수공정 운영 안정화 체계를 확보하고, 정수장의 유량과 수질의 갑작스런 변화에 따른 모의를 통한 수질예측으로 실시간 정수장 최적운영관리가 가능하다. 또한 원수 성상에 따른 적정 공정운영 자동화로 운영비 절감 및 효율적 인력 활용으로 정수장 운영 효율성을 제고함으로써 지속적이고 안정적인 정수장 운영 체계를 확보할 수 있다.

The wire and/or wireless data communication system for anti-disaster system of natural gas governor station was developed. In oder to prevent accidents of governor station, the operator was replaced by RTU(Remote Terminal Unit) which gather and transmit safety situation of governor station. The database and MMI(Man Machine Interface) were also developed to analyze the situation of governor station. The data communication between server and RTU was designed to switch automatically from wire to wireless communication and vice versa when one of them failed communication. We also have developed the patrol car management system which was applied GPS(Global Position System)/GIS(Geometric Information System), and the earthquake detection/transmission system which was adopted three dimension acceleration sensor. When a earthquake may occur, the earthquake detection/transmission system monitors data such as PGA(Peak Ground Acceleration), Sl(Spectrum Intensity) and orders the emergency shutoff valve close immediately.

A river water level monitoring system which prevents salt water damages and effectively excludes floods has been developed to contribute efficient operation of Nakdong river estuary barrage. The system can be used for monitoring upstream conditions more quickly and do appropriate responses over changes. Telemetry and telecontrols using PLCs have been built at the three sites that directly influence on the operation of barrage gates, and are linked to Nakdong river estuary barrage's IOS (Integrated Operation System) through public communication networks. By using PLC, the system can achieve even higher reliability and versatility than before as well as easy management. By power control devices, we can remotely control the power of PLCs to treat the minor troubles instantly without going on-sites. The power control devices also save data in preparation for the cases of communication failures. The system uses ADSL (FTTH) as a main network between SCADA server and PLCs, and CDMA (M2M) as a secondary network. In order to compensate security vulnerabilities of public communication network, we have installed the VPNs for secure communication between center and the observation stations, just like a dedicated network. Generally, river water level observations have been used custom-manufactured remote terminals to suit their special goals. However, in this case, we have established a system with open architecture considering the interface between different systems, the ease of use and maintenance, security, price, etc.
