Recent, problems on the voltage-instability have been paid attention in power system and methods to find the limit of voltage-stability, concerned with these problems, were developed. However, these methods are short of precision on the limit of voltage-instability. Here, using the second-order load flow, constraint equation(d Pi/d Vi=0) and its patial differentiations are precisely formulated. Also, since the taylor series expansion of power flow equations terminates at the second-order terms, partial differentiations of constraint equation, that is Hessian, are constant. Then, Hessian matrix are calculated once during iteration process.

This paper presents a new structure for a piezoelectric transformer, operating in thickness extensional vibration mode. Modified $PbTiO_3$ family ceramics were used for the piezoelectric transformer, because it was a material with large anisotropy between elecromechanical coupling factors $K_t$ and $K_p$ . The size of piezoelectric transformer was 20mn long, 20mm wide and 3.1mm thick. The second harmonic resonant frequency of thickness extensional vibration mode was 0.72MHz at loading resistance 100[$\omega$], And Voltage gin of piezoelectric ceramics showed 0.53 at resonant frequency of sencond thickness extensional vibration mode.

This paper is concerned with applicability of a new type of controllers, called i-PID and GPI in which unknown parts of the plant are taken into account without any modeling procedure, to automatic voltage regulator (AVR) system. First, the procedure for applying i-PID and GPI algorithms to AVR system is proposed, which uses model reduction technique based on the given information of AVR. Second, simulations are given to verify their effectiveness comparing to various PID algorithms including PIDD2 which is four-term controller, that is, consisting of PID and second order derivative terms. Superior response performances of i-PID and GPI in comparison to conventional PID controllers are shown. Moreover, i-PID can highly improve the system robustness with respect to model uncertainties, especially to load variations.

This paper present a new sort of multilayer piezoelectric ceramic transformer for AC-adapt. This piezoelectric transformer operates n the second thickness extensional vibration mode. The output voltage of the multilayer piezoelectric transformer was simulated using ANSYS. As results, the maximum stress appeared at the two points where one is the middle of input and the other is middle of output side in Second thickness extensional vibration mode. And output voltage was inversely decreased by increasing number of output layers.

In this paper, we suggested the design rule of high-voltage rectangular waveform generator working in low frequency domain (5Hz $\sim$ 60Hz). Most of the commonly used power electronic switching devices have voltage ratings up to several kV. So it is difficult to design and fabricate high-voltage switching systems with the power electronic devices alone. We have combined IGBTC(1200V, 50A) with the specially designed transformer to get the high-voltage rectangular waveforms up to 40kV. In this work. next two things are the main factors. The first one is design of transformer working low-frequency domain close to 5Hz. And the second one is additional voltage source to floating the transformer voltage output. As a result, we can get frequency-variable and high-voltage rectangular voltage waveform and this can be a more efficient power source of sandpaper manufacturing process.

The performance and dynamic characteristics of three-phase active power filter with PCC voltage compensation is presented and analyzed in this paper. The characteristics of parallel active filter are discussed when they are applied to nonlinear loads with current source and voltage source type, the characteristics of voltage compensator and comparison of two functions are discussed. The proposed scheme in this paper employs a PWM voltage-source inverter and has two operation modes. First, it operates as a conventional active filter with reactive power compensation while PCC voltage is in a certain range. Second, is operates as a voltage compensator while PCC voltage is out of range. Finally, the validity of this scheme is investigated through analysis of simulation and experimental results for a prototype active power filter system rated at 10KVA.

The purpose of this study is to investigate electrostatic charge condition and possibility of electrostatic hazards in case of putting on synthetic smocks and antistatic garments for the purpose of prevention of electrostatic hazards due to a human body electrical charge. It is shown in case of a synthetic smocks, electrostatic voltage by friction is about 2,900 (V), half life period is 12 second, and electrostatic charge is 1.4―1.8 ($\mu$ C). When putting on a synthetic smocks, electrostatic voltage is 2,500―2,800(V). When putting on a jumper of chemical fiber, electrostatic voltage is 8,000(V) . It is, therfore, possible to cause a electrostatic hazards. It is also shown in case of a antistatic garments, electrostatic voltage by friction is 87(V) ―280(V) (washing 90 times), half life period is 3―5 second, and electrostatic charge is 0.24―0.28($\mu$ C) which is much lower than 0.6($\mu$ C) limitation of fire and explosion occurance. When putting on a antistatic garments, electrostatic voltage is 10(V) ―125(V). In conclusion, it is shown when putting on a antistatic garments it is possible to prevent a electrostatic hazards such as fire or explosion due to human body, to prevent a destruction of semiconductor elements and capacity decline, and to prevent a misoperation of automation facilities and semiconductor electric and electronic products.

In this paper, we present design rule of high-voltage rectangular generator working in wide band frequency domain. Though power electronics now have voltage ratings up to several kV, it is difficult to design and fabricate high-voltage systems with the power electronic devices alone. So we have combined IGBT with technically designed transformer to get the high-voltage rectangular waveforms. In this work, next two things are the main factors. The first one is design of transformer working low-frequency domain of less than 10Hz. And the second one is adding offset voltage part. As a result, we can get variable frequency high-voltage rectangular waveform and this can be used as a voltage source of sandpaper manufacturing process.

This paper addresses the discharge characteristics of cross-linked polyethylene according to void by the Weibull function. It analyzes discharge number and amount of discharge using Weibull distribution to identify the inter-relationship between partial discharge and defect. We detected a 10 second discharge. The applied voltage increased by 1 [kV] at discharge inception voltage. As a result, in a no-void specimen, the shape parameter was consistent according to the increase of voltage, whereas, in a void specimen, it increased according to the increase of voltage. As the result, the shape parameter expressed a fixed value at no-void specimen. However, in void specimen, according to increasing voltage shape parameter rapidly increases.

The high penetration level of inverter-based distributed generation (DG) power plants is challenging the low-voltage ride-through requirements, especially under unbalanced voltage sags. Recently, a flexible injection of both positive- (PS) and negative-sequence (NS) reactive currents has been suggested for the next generation of grid codes. This can enhance the ancillary services for voltage support at the point of common coupling (PCC). In light of this, considering distant grid faults that occur in a mainly inductive grid, this paper proposes a complete voltage support control scheme for the interface inverters of medium or high-rated DG power plants. The first contribution is the development of a reactive current reference generator combining PS and NS, with a feature to increase the PS voltage and simultaneously decrease the NS voltage, to mitigate voltage imbalance. The second contribution is the design of a voltage support control loop with two flexible PCC voltage set points, which can ensure continuous operation within the limits required in grid codes. In addition, a current saturation strategy is also considered for deep voltage sags to avoid overcurrent protection. Finally, simulation and experimental results are presented to validate the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.
