The temperature of power transformers is very important factor for power system operation in substation because load capacity and limited lifetime of power transformers are determined by winding temperature. Also, The temperature of power transformers varies with the structure, capacity, operation condition and manufacturers. Thus, it is necessary for temperature distribution to be exactly investigated because of efficient load management and prediction of limited lifetime. Nevertheless, there was no case of analysis as well as measurement of the temperature of power transformers. In this paper, we manufactured the 154kV standard power transformer for the test. And we measured the temperature by the heat run test and analyzed the temperature distribution of transformer.

The management of the electric power facilities became important in accordance with the industrial development and electric power facilities were influenced by weather. Even if the same kind of electric power facilities is estimated for extracting the time-varying failure rate, the failure rate could be different depending on external effect such as climate. This research will show the data mining modeling of the weather-related outage and influence of weather on the electric power facility with recent data.

This paper analyzes a symmetric active cell balancer for a battery management system. The considered cell balancer uses a forward converter in which the circuit structure is symmetric. This cell-balancing method uses fewer switches and is simpler than the previously proposed active cell-balancing circuits. Active power switches of this cell-balancing circuit operate simultaneously with the same pulse width modulation signals. Therefore, this cell-balancing circuit requires less time to be balanced than a previous bidirectional-forward-converter-based cell balancer. This paper analyzes the operational principles and modes of this cell balancer with computer-based circuit simulation results as well as experimental results in which each unbalanced cell is equalized with this cell balancer. The maximum power transfer efficiency of the investigated cell balancer was 87.5% from the experimental results. In addition to the experimental and analytical results, this paper presents the performance of this symmetric active cell-balancing method.

The inundation of substation and ground power equipment breaks out every summer season in low-lying downtown areas and low-lying shores by torrential rain, typhoons and tsunamis. It has, in turn, caused replacement, social and economic costs for blackouts. For activity management regarding flood damage we produced a flood protection system which using the Pad transformer as a basic frame and is developed using pneumatic pressure. We tested safety concerns including insulation resistance and current leakage first for water tank flooding and, second, by an empirical test through supplying 22.9[kV]. We estimate that costs associated with flooding and power failure can be diminished by these advances toward creating a more reliable system.

This paper presents the result of pattern classification of load demand for distribution transformer in domestic. The field data of load demand is measured using the load acquisition device and the measurement data is used for the database system for load management of distribution transformed. For the pattern classification, the load data and the customer information data are also used. The K-MEAN method is used for the pattern classification algorithm. The result of pattern classification is used for the 2-step format of load demand curve.

Recently, There have been many attempts to optimize energy usage in buildings and houses using Information Technology(IT) and the typical implementation can be found in Intelligent Building and Zero Energy Building. These kinds of buildings need to forecast the building loads, estimate the capacity requirement for power supply, and decide the capacity of the main transformer of the building. Currently, the capacity of the main transformer has been decided just using typical load estimation method not considering the load characteristics and patterns. In this paper, we propose a new load estimation method considering the load characteristics and patterns of the builiding. The proposed method was applied to actual mail center and verified the feasibility of application to actual design of buildings.

This paper presents a scheme to design optimal placement of phase-shifting transformers for power system congestion problems. A good design of phase-shifting transformers placement can improve total transfer capability in interconnected systems. In order to find the optimal placement of phase-shifting transformers, the power flows of the interesting transmission lines are evaluated using sequential quadratic programming technique. This algorithm considers power balance equations and security constraints such as voltage magnitudes and transmission line capacities. The proposed scheme is tested in 10 machines 39 buses and IEEE 57 buses systems. Test result shows that the proposed method can find the optimal placement of phase-shifting transformers to solver power system congestion problems.

Since urban railway transit is one of the most essential transportation systems, its power facilities must ensure high reliability and safety. Currently, urban railway operating organizations perform TBM (Time Based Maintenance) on power facilities. However, in order to improve management efficiency and system safety, CBM (Condition Based Maintenance) is preferred. Among various power facilities, mold transformers has been chosen as the object of study since it is widely used for the purpose of minimizing volume and weight, and due to safety against fire. In this paper, various transformer failure cases due to electric, thermal, mechanical and environmental factors have been collected and analyzed. In addition, investigation on national and international condition based maintenance cases and the characteristics of sensors widely used for transformer monitoring has been performed to suggest the optimal condition based maintenance technique for urban railway systems.

변압기 절연유 중 PCBs, Co-PCBs 및 PCDD/Fs를 GC/ECD와 HRGC/HRMS를 이용하여 정량한 결과 각각 N.D.~77.3 ppm, 0.0863~2.49 ppm과 N.D.~0.00241 ppm으로 검출되었다. WHO-TEQ 농도는 Co-PCBs가 23.3~600 pgTEQ/g, PCDD/Fs가 N.D.~128 pgTEQ/g (${\Sigma}Co$-PCBs+PCDD/Fs은 24.4~728 pgTEQ/g)으로 검출되어, 총 TEQ 농도 중 PCDD/Fs가 차지하는 비율은 12% 이하였으나, 변압기 절연유 중에 미량의 다이옥신이 존재하는 것으로 나타났다. 총 10개의 시료 중 4개의 시료에서 현행 기준인 2 ppm을 초과하였으며, 시료에 따라서 Aroclor 1242, 1248, 1254 및 1260이 단품 혹은 혼합품의 형태로 포함되어 있었다. 또한 Co-PCBs와 PCDD/Fs의 농도사이에 상관성이 나타났으나 (P<0.003), 변압기의 제작년도와 농도사이에 상관성은 나타나지 않았다. Co-PCBs 이성체 분포에 있어서 non-ortho 치환 이성체에 비해 mono-ortho 이성체가 높은 비율을 차지하였으며, PCB-118 이성체가 모든 시료에서 42% 이상으로 가장 높은 비율을 차지하였다. PCDD/Fs 이성체 분포에 있어서는 OCDD가 53% 이상으로 다른 이성체에 비해 높은 비율을 차지했다. 또한 일부 시료 중 Co-PCBs의 이성체패턴은 환경 대기시료 뿐만 아니라 PCBs 제품인 Aroclor와 유사한 패턴을 나타내어, 변압기 절연유가 대기 중 PCBs의 오염원 중 하나라는 것이 시사되었다.

Nowadays new water supply projects have been on the decline as the water-power constructions have saturated, which means that the existing power equipment have slowly aged and they require more efforts to maintain the system performance. An effective asset management method of power equipment has become a great necessity from both economical and technical aspects. To be balanced, the asset management should look into all three parts: management, engineering, and information. The purpose of this paper is to study a Risk-Based Maintenance (RBM) matrix method through the deterioration evaluation algorithm for an efficient reliability assessment of oil-immersed power transformers by considering both asset management and technical evaluation. Make use of this result, the equipment will be decided to be replace or repair otherwise on service.
