본 논문은 저장 탱크용 임시전력설비를 보호하기 위한 목적으로 특히 변압기를 감시하고 절연파괴 등과 같은 고장을 차단하고 보호하기 위한 보호계전기 정정에 관한 연구이다. 전력계통에 단락 또는 지락고장 등과 같은 이상이 발생하였을 때 이를 검출하여 고장이 발생한 기기 및 설비를 신속하게 차단하고 전력계통으로부터 분리하여 전력공급에 지장이 없도록 하여야 한다. 전력계통의 이상 상태를 빠르고 정확하게 감지할 수 있는 보호계전기의 정정이 중요하다. 또한 보호협조를 위해 고장종류와 고장의 원인을 정확히 적용한 고장전류 계산이 보호계전기 정정에 가장 중요한 요소이다. 저장 탱크용 임시전력설비 보호를 위해 적용하는 과전류계전기, 지락과전류계전기, 부족전압계전기, 지락과전압계전기 등이 보호협조가 가능하도록 보호계전기 정정 방법에 대해 연구하였다.

전력 시스템에서 직렬 보상기의 적용은 회로 차단기 과도 재기 전압 (Transient Recovery Voltage : TRV) 문제와 같은 다른 장치에 영향을 미친다. 본 논문에서는 TCSC (Thyristor-Controlled Series Capacitor)가 있는 경우와 없는 경우의 선로 차단기에 대한 TRV 효과를 시뮬레이션을 통해 분석하고, TCSC 설치로 인한 TRV 증가를 극복하는 효과적인 방법을 제안한다. 또한 금속 산화물 바리스터 (Metal Oxide Varistor : MOV)에 대한 제안된 보호의 영향에 대해서도 설명한다. 시뮬레이션 모델은 국내의 345 kV 송전선로를 사용하였다. 전력 시스템은 PSCAD (Power Systems Computer Aided Design) / EMTDC (Electro Magnetic Transient Direct Current)를 사용하여 모델링하였다. TRV는 송전선로 및 차단기 단자에서 단락 고장을 구현하여 분석하였고, MOV의 에너지는 보호 동작 알고리즘을 적용하여 해석하였다. 제안된 보호 방안을 적용하는 경우 TRV는 표준을 만족시키지만, 지연 시간이 증가함에 따라 MOV 에너지 용량의 증가하여야 한다. 이 결과를 적용하여 실제 전력 시스템에서 예상되는 전송 선로 고장 상태로 인한 TRV 문제를 해결할 수 있다.

본 연구에서는 수도수 중에서 Mg합금유전양극에 의한 연강재 온수보일러의 음극방식특성을 연구한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1) 온수보일러 관체의 개로전위에서나 전위가 높은 구간에서 모재의 부식전류밀도가 용접부위의 부식전류밀도보다 더 적게 배류된다. 2) 주조된 표면 그대로의 Mg합금 유전양극의 전류밀도는 주조된 표면을 연마한 상태의 Mg합금 유전양극의 전류밀도보다 더 많이 배류된다. 3) Mg합금 유전양극으로부터 거리가 멀어질수록 연강재 온수보일러의 음극방식전위는 높게 나타나고, 음극방식시간이 경과하면서 방식전위는 높게 나타나다가 6-10일 이후부터 방식전위는 안정되고 있다.

We investigated the fault current limiting characteristics according to the various facilities in power system. Power systems are becoming larger and larger for meeting electric power demand. Therefore, the over-currents resulting from contingencies such as short circuits are increasing higher, which causes the ratings of circuit breakers(CBs) to increase. Upgrading or replacement of CBs is not difficult from the technical and economical point of view. Bus split is being adopted into a part of 154 kV power systems, but it has adverse effects such as overload to neighboring power systems, increased voltage fluctuation, and decreased power system stability. For 345 kV power systems, the bus split measure is not feasible and dc reactors are being suggested. The superconducting fault current limiter is a protection gear of new concept that limits fault current automatically in a few milliseconds. It can also provide the effect of CB capacity increase, relaxation of power machine criteria, enhancement in power system reliability, and flexible power system operation.

The design of a battery package and a BMS module for applications using seawater rechargeable batteries, which are known as next-generation energy storage devices, is proposed herein. Seawater rechargeable batteries, which are currently in the initial stage of research, comprise primarily components such as anode and cathode materials. Their application is challenging owing to their low charge capacity and limited charge/discharge voltage and current. Therefore, we design a method for packaging multiple cells and a BMS module for the safe charging and discharging of seawater rechargeable batteries. In addition, a prototype seawater rechargeable battery package and BMS module are manufactured, and their performances are verified by evaluating the prevention of overcharge, overdischarge, overcurrent, and short circuit during charging and discharging.

An air circuit breaker (ACB) is an electrical protection device that interrupts abnormal fault currents that result from overloads or short circuits in a low-voltage power distribution line. The ACB consists of a main circuit part for current flow, mechanism part for the opening and closing operation of movable conductors, and arc-extinguishing part for arc extinction during the breaking operation. The driving mechanism of the ACB is a spring energy charging type. The faster the contact opening speed of the movable conductors during the opening process, the better the breaking performance. However, there is a disadvantage that the durability of mechanism decreases in inverse proportion to the use of a spring capable of accumulating high energy to configure the breaking speed faster. Therefore, to simultaneously satisfy the breaking performance and mechanical endurance of the ACB, its driving mechanism must be optimized. In this study, a dynamic model of the ACB was developed using the MDO(Mechanism Dynamics Option) module of CREO, which is widely used in multibody dynamics analysis. To improve the opening velocity, the Taguchi design method was applied to optimize the design parameters of an ACB with many linkages. In addition, to evaluate the improvement in the operating characteristics, the simulation and experimental results were compared with the MDO model and improved prototype sample, respectively.

Optical Fourier-domain reflectometry (OFDR) sensors have been widely used to measure distances with high resolution and speed in a noncontact state. In the electroplating process of a printed circuit board, it is critically important to monitor the copper-plating thickness, as small deviations can lead to defects, such as an open or short circuit. In this paper we employ a phase-based OFDR sensor for in situ relative distance sensing of a sample with nanometer-scale resolution, during electroplating. We also develop an optical-path difference (OPD)-regulated sensing probe that can maintain a preset distance from the sample. This function can markedly facilitate practical measurements in two aspects: Optimal distance setting for high signal-to-noise ratio OFDR sensing, and protection of a fragile probe tip via vertical evasion movement. In a sample with a centimeter-scale structure, a conventional OFDR sensor will probably either bump into the sample or practically out of the detection range of the sensing probe. To address this limitation, a novel OPD-regulated OFDR system is designed by combining the OFDR sensing probe and linear piezo motors with feedback-loop control. By using multiple OFDR sensors, it is possible to effectively monitor copper-plating thickness in situ and uniformize it at various positions.

The design of the integrated quench protection (QP) system for the high current superconducting magnet (SCM) has been fabricated and tested for the toroidal field (TF) coil system of the Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research (KSTAR) device. The QP system is capable of protecting the TF SCM, which consists of 16 identical coils serially connected with a stored energy of 495 MJ at the design operation level at 35.2 kA per turn. Given that the power supply for the TF coils can only ramp up and maintain the coil current, the design of the QP system includes two features. The first is a basic fast discharge function to protect the TF SCM by a dump resistor circuit with a 7 s time constant in case of coil quench event. The second is a slow discharge function with a time constant of 360 s for a daily TF discharge or for a stop demand from the tokamak control system. The QP system has been successfully tested up to 40 kA with a short circuit and up to 34 kA with TF SCM in the second campaign of KSTAR. This paper describes the characteristics of the TF QP systems and test results of the plasma experiment of KSTAR in 2009.

This paper deals with the characteristics of the potential rises of down-conductor due to lightning surge currents. Direct lightning strikes can cause high impulse currents to the lightning protection system(LPS) of a building. These high impulse currents have the front time as short as 1[${\mu}s$]. In this case, the induced voltages caused in a closed circuit inside the building can be very high and cause damage or submit people to electric hazard. So, the LPS has to be designed to ensure safety condition to person and acceptable levels of induced voltages to the electrical and electronic equipments. The results of the potential rises related to the bonding conditions between the grounding conductor and metal raceway and the type of down-conductors are introduced.
