Some insulating materials are organized and analyzed with variables to obtain the optimized profile of encapsulated three phase of epoxy barrier which is applied to gas compartment and supporting conductors for high voltage GIS (gas insulated switchgear). The high voltage GIS is used in electrical power system and operating reliability. In this paper, optimization possibility of barrier shape including both electrical insulation performance and mechanical strength, premised on that condition minimizing volume and light weight should be kept for high voltage GIS, could be achieved by analysis simulation. As a result, filling material which is lower permittivity such as $SiO_2$ instead of $Al_2O_3$ properly to the epoxy material, can be improved to increase the electrical insulation performance and mechanical strength for an optimized profile barrier of a high voltage GIS.

GIS is used to isolate large power electrical equipment using SF6 gas. While GIS has simple structure, it has few break down, relatively high reliability. But it is hard to check up faults for reason of pressure. Faults of GIS should have a ripple effect on community and be hard to recovery. Consequently, GIS imports a preventive diagnostic system to find internal faults in advance. It is most important that reliability on the GIS preventive diagnostic system, because it estimates abnormality of system by analysis result of collected data. But, exist system which used central data management is low efficiency, and hard to guarantee timeliness and accuracy of data. To guarantee timeliness and accuracy, the GIS preventive diagnostic system needs accordingly to use a real-time middleware. So, in this paper, to improve reliability of the GIS preventive diagnostic system, we use a middleware based on TMO for guaranteeing timeliness of real-time distributed computing. And we propose an improved GIS preventive diagnostic system applying data acquisition, monitoring and control methods based on the TMO model. The presented system uses the Communication Control Unit(CCU) for distributed data handling which is supported by TMO. CCU can improve performance of the GIS preventive diagnostic system by guaranteeing timeliness of data handling process and increasing reliability of data through the TMO middleware. And, it has designed to take full charge of overload on a data acquisition task had been processed in an exist server. So, it could reduce overload of the server and apply distribution environment from now. Therefore, the proposed system can improve performance and reliability of the GIS preventive diagnostic system and contribute to stable operation of GIS.

Due to excellent properties such as high specific strength and low density, application of magnesium alloys have been rapidly increased. However, magnesium alloy has a serious problem that is easily oxidized when exposed to high-temperature. For this reason, magnesium alloys have been generally used for SF6 gas such as protective cover gas in casting and melting, but it has been reported that this gas has a serious influence on global warming. Therefore, many researchers have been studied to improve the oxidation resistance of magnesium alloy. It was reported that addition of Be, Ca and CaO in magnesium alloy can improve the oxidation properties. In this study, the possibility of improving the oxidation resistance by adding CaO extracted from oyster shells was investigated. Oyster shells were completely decomposed into CaO and CO₂ by annealing. With the addition of CaO, a coexistence region of MgO + CaO was formed in the oxide layer and its thickness was also reduced.

The recent power system is required to a large size of facilities and high power technology according to increasing power demand. However, it could lead to spoiling the beauty of city and environment problem. The miniaturized facilities with large capacity such as GIS have been required in recent power system. The GIS(Gas Insulated Substation) using the SF6 insulation gas enables to miniaturize facilities with large capacity with high insulation performance. However, the substation installed GIS has required to new design model which is different from the conventional substation. The TRV(Transient Recovery Voltage) analysis on simple circuit may applied by differential equation. However, in case of relatively complicated system, EMTP(Electro Magnetic Transients Program) mainly has been used to design and simulate for transient analysis. This paper mainly design the 22.9 kV GIS system and analyze the transient recovery voltage of main circuit breaker using EMTP/RV. It also enables to easily design the other substation installed GIS with same maker and voltage level because the proposed GIS model consists of separated modules such as busbar, circuit breaker, bushing, CT, PT etc. Eventually, it contributes to comfortably compare the interrupting performance of circuit breaker and system TRV corresponding to the substation system configuration.

Plasma etching technology has been developed since it is recognized that silicon etching is very crucial in MEMS(Micro Electro Mechanical System) technology. In this study ICP(Inductive Coupled Plasma) technology was used as a new plasma etching to increase ion density without increasing ion energy, and to maintain the etching directions. This plasma etching can be used for many MEMS applications, but it has been used for PCR(Polymerase Chain Reaction) device fabrication. Platen power, Coil power and process pressure were parameters for observing the etching rate changes. Conclusively Platen power 12W, Coil power 500W, etchng/passivation cycle 6/7sec gives the etching rate of $1.2{\mu}m/min$ and sidewall profile of $90{\pm}0.7^{\circ}$, exclusively. It was concluded from this study that it was possible to minimize the environmental effect by optimizing the etching process using SF6 gas.

SF6 widely used as insulating gas is rising as the environment problem. For decreasing this greenhouse gas, electrical breakdown characteristics of composite insulation composed of epoxy resins with N2, air are studied in non-uniform field. The gap of needle to plane was 3mm, 5mm. The pressure of air, nitrogen was varied within the range of 0.1~0.6MPa. The thickness of a needle is 1mm and the curvature radius of the end of needle is 100um. The diameter of a plane made of the stainless steel is 50mm. As a result of the experiment, the breakdown voltage is increased about 3 times when epoxy resins is composited. The thickness of epoxy resins filled opposite to electrode concentrated electric field weakly influences on breakdown voltage.

SF6 gas used widely as insulating component is rising as the environment problem. Electrical breakdown characteristics of epoxy and dry-air composite insulation was investigated on thickness of epoxy and pressure of dry-air under non-uniform field. The gap of needle to plane was from 2mm to 5mm. The pressure of dry-air was varied within the range of $0.1{\sim}0.6$ MPa. The thickness of a needle was 1mm and the curvature radius of a needle end was 100um. The diameter of a plane made of the stainless steel was 50mm. As a result of the experiment, breakdown voltage was increased about 3 times when epoxy was used. The impact that the thickness of epoxy influences on breakdown voltage was poor. It needs suitable thickness computation because the insulating gap of the gas is short as epoxy thickness increases.

Inductively coupled plasma reactive ion etching of magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) stack, which is one of the key elements in magnetic random access memory, was studied. The MTJ stacks were patterned in nanometer size by electron(e)-beam lithography, and TiN thin films were employed as a hard mask. The etch process of TiN hard mask was examined using Ar, $Cl_2/Ar$, and $SF_6/Ar$. The TiN hard mask patterned by e-beam lithography was first etched and then the etching of MTJ stack was performed. The MTJ stacks were etched using Ar, $Cl_2/Ar$, and $BCl_3/Ar$ gases by varying gas concentration and pressure.

Bulky iron-core potential transformers (PT) are installed in a tank of gas insulated switchgears (GIS) for a system voltage measurement in power substations. In this paper, we studied an electronic voltage transformer (EVT) embedded in a spacer for miniaturization, eco-friendliness, and performance improvement of GIS. The prototype EVT consists of a capacitive probe (CP) that can be embedded in a spacer and a voltage Follower with a high input and a low output impedance. The CP was fabricated in the form of a Flexible-PCB to acquire the insulation performance and to withstand vibration and shock during operation. Voltage ratio of the prototype EVT is about 42,270, and the frequency bandwidth of -3 dB ranges from 0.33 Hz to 3.9 MHz. The voltage ratio error evaluated at about 6%, 12% and 18% of the rated voltage of 170 kV was 0.32%, and the phase error was 12.9 minutes. These results were within the accuracy for the class 0.5 specified in IEC 60044-7 and satisfy even in ranges from 80% to 120% of the rated voltage. If the prototype EVT replaces the conventional iron-core potential transformer, it is expected that the height of the GIS could be reduced by 11% and the amount of SF₆ will be reduced by at least 10%.
