This paper describes a new method of calculating expected energy generation and loss of load probability (L.O.L.P) for electric power system operation and expansion planning. The method represents an equivalent load duration curve (E.L.D.C) as a mixture of cumulants approximation (M.O.N.A). By regarding a load distribution as many normal distributions-rather than one normal distribution-and representing each of them in terms of Gram-Charlier expansion, we could improve the accuracy of results. We developed an algorithm which automatically determines the number of distribution and demarcation points. In modeling of a supply system, we made subsets of generators according to the number of generator outage: since the calculation of each subset's moment needs to be processed rapidly, we further developed specific recursive formulae. The method is applied to the test systems and the results are compared with those of cumulant, M.O.N.A. and Booth-Baleriaux method. It is verified that the M.O.C.A. method is faster and more accure than any other method.

This paper approaches a methodology for deciding the optimal reliability criteria for an optimal composite power system expansion planning considering generation and transmission systems simultaneously. A probabilisticreliability criterion, $LOLE_R$(Loss of Load Expectation), is used in this study. The optimalreliability criterion $LOLE_R*$ is decided at minimum cost point of total cost curve which is the sum of the utility cost associated with construction cost and the customer outage cost associated with supply interruptions for load considering forced outage rates of elements(generators and lines) in long term forecasting. The characteristicsand effectiveness of this methodology are illustrated by the case study using MRBTS size system.

This paper presents two systems of two-stage electrohydraulic servovalve with a nozzle-flapper pilot stage, which is controlled by stack-type piezoelectric elements. Two flapper moving mechanisms proposed in this research can compensate for the hysteresis problem and thermal expansion of the piezoelectric elements. The experimental results show that the first flapper moving mechanism has the frequency response of over 500 Hz and the second one has the response of over 600 Hz. And the first simplified servovalve system rising the first flapper moving mechanism has the frequency response of about 150 Hz, and the second system has the response of about 300 Hz at the supply pressure of 210 bar

This paper presents expansion and contraction in accordance with temperature change of contact wire and messenger wire. The tensioning device is designed and installed to pull the contact wire and messenger wire straight at all times. Pulling a contract wire straight ensures that smooth contract is maintained between the contact wire and pantograph of an electric train, and this makes it possible to ensure a stable supply of electricity to the train. Normally, tensioning devices are installed at two positions over a distance of 1.0[km] to 1.6[km] per line. In installing the tensioning device, therefore, it is necessary to study the stroke(the range of the extension/contraction rate of the tensioning device compatible with that of the contact wire and messenger wire due to change in temperature). This paper introduces and discusses this topic.

Nowadays, according to gradual progress of the information oriented society, it is being increase rapidly that social requirement for the high quality and stability of electric power supply. Therefore, for the sake of expansion of the various power system and reasonable operation and administration, there are some growing need for telecommunication system that will operate in high dependability performance and expansion by much. But beause of unestablished reliability analysis and evaluation methodology for power telecommunication system, it could not have a reasonable planning for the purpose of improving dependability performance on telecommunication system. The object of this study is to construct reasonable methodology of reliability evaluation fur the efficient power telecommunication facility administration.

In 2000, the EU set up an energy policy related renewables use for electricity demand up to $22\%$ on the purpose of preventing energy exhaustion and world climate exchange. Technology development and energy production policy on coal, oil and natural gas focus on how to minimize their environmental effects since the world energy system will continue to be dominated by fossil fuels with almost $90\%$ of total energy supply in 2030. In the long run, the EU drives expansion policy of the renewable energy. If related policies and programs will show successful operation in the near future and will be resulted in increase of budget, we could expect the possibility of expansion of renewable energy market in Korea in the future.

This paper presents ESPI system for the measurement of thermal expansion coefficient of STS430 up to 1,000$^{\circ}C$. Existing methods, strain gauge and moire have the limitation of contact to object and do not supply the coefficient up to 800$^{\circ}C$. There needs to measure the data up to 800$^{\circ}C$, because heat resistant materials have high melting temperature up to 1,000$^{\circ}C$. In previous studies related to thermal strain analysis, the quantitative results are not reported by ESPI at high temperature, yet. In-plane ESPI and vacuum chamber for the reduction of air turbulence and oxidation are designed for the measurement of the coefficient up to 1,000$^{\circ}C$and speckle correlation fringe pattern images are processed by commercial image filtering tool-smoothing, thinning and enhancement- to obtain quantitative results, which is compared with references data. The comparison shows two data are agreed within 4.1％ blow 600$^{\circ}C$ however, there is some difference up to 600$^{\circ}C$. Also, the incremental ratio of the coefficient is changed up to 800$^{\circ}C$. The reason is the phase transformation of STS430 probably begins at 800$^{\circ}C$.

The outage cost assessment has an important position for determination of the optimal level or optimal range of reliability for power system expansion planning. Establishing the worth of service reliability is a very difficult and subjective task. While the utility cost(reliability cost) will generally increase as consumers are provided with higher reliability, the consumer costs(reliability worth) associated with supply interruptions will decrease as the reliability increases. The total costs to society are the sum of these two individual costs and the optimum or target level of reliability is achieved at minimum point of the total cost curve. This paper addresses the role, need and assessment algorithms and methodologies of the outage cost in power system expansion planning. In a case study, the outage cost has been assessed using macro approach for our country 15years(1986-200l) in the case study. Additionally, determination processing of optimum reliability level is presented in another case study with the five buses MRBTS.
