This paper proposes new dual-band impedance transformers based on the L-section circuit topology. The proposed circuits consist of a transmission line section with a stub line either at the source or at the load end. The dual-band operating conditions are analyzed in detail and simple design equations are derived in terms of the line lengths and impedances for the different circuit topologies and load conditions. The dual-band operation is confirmed through the design, fabrication and measurement in microstrip circuits based on the proposed method.

As the renewable energy market grows, grid-connected inverters have been improving and expanding in several fields in recent years because energy conversion devices are the main components of solar systems. In this paper, a high-precision new grid-connected three-phase inverter system is proposed. The proposed system consists of a main inverter, a sub inverter and a transformer. The main inverter operates at a low switching frequency and high power and transmits power to the grid. A sub-inverter connected in series with the transmission line through a matching transformer operates at lower power than the main inverter to provide input values to the transformer. The transformer acts as a power supply according to the voltage compensation value. This study is based on the principle of operation of the UPFC(Unified Power Flow Controller) structure used to regulate power flow in AC transmission lines. The grid-connected inverter system proposed in this paper is implemented with high precision and high resolution. The proposed system was verified through its ability to enhance and ensure the safety of the proposed system through simulation and experiment.

Electric utilities has been considered the necessity to introduce asset management of electric power facilities in order to reduce maintenance cost of existing facilities and to maximize profit. This paper aims to provide data that can helpful to make profitable decision in terms of power transformers which have a significant part in the power system. Therefore, this study is modeling input cost for power transformer during its entire life and also the life cycle cost (LCC) technique is applied. In particular, the variation of transformer state related with maintenance and the variation of the EUAC curve based on cost and effect of maintenance is examined. In this study, the trend of the equivalent uniform annual cost (EUAC) according to maintenance cycle and cost of equipment is analyzed. In line with that, sensitivity analysis influenced by the changes of other cost factors was performed.

The partial discharge detecting method using the ultrasonic technique has been investigated to monitor the insulation ageing of a transformer. However, the result of the studies on the ultrasonic technique for detecting of partial discharge in the operating transformer is not enough yet to utilize. This paper presents the analysis of the ultrasonic signals due to the partial discharge in a model transformer and the corona in air at a shielded high voltage room. In addition, the ultrasonic signals due to the vibration from the core, operation of the cooling pump, the fan and the OLTC at the 345㎸ power transformer, were analyzed and corona noise from overhead transmission line in 345㎸ substation were measured to remove the electrical and mechanical noises from the transformer. Furthermore, ultrasonic signal due to the partial discharge in the 154㎸ power transformer with in $C_2$$H_2$ gas warning condition was measured. The inside of the transformer was examined with care. which confirms the existence of the partial discharge source.

This paper describes modeling using the EMTP/ATPDraw for reclosing analysis in 154kV combined transmission systems, and analyzes switching overvoltage. Current transformer established at lead-in area and lead-out area in transmission line and circuit breaker were modeled using TACS in the EMTP/ATPDraw. And also MODELS was constructed by signal processing of the operating reclosing. The simulation was carried out the switching overvoltage according to the length of overhead and underground transmission line, overvoltage between sheath and earth, and voltage between joint boxes.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the harmonics generated from Korea High Speed Rail's trainset and to analyze the effect on the KEPCO power system. This study focuses on the test track of the high speed rail and analyzes 154㎸ transmission line, scott transformer, autotransformer and 27,5㎸ line. The trainset is modeled as a harmonic source attached to the catenary line of the test track. Then, harmonic distortion is calculated. This distortion is compared with the KEPCO's regulations in relation to harmonic.

An auxiliary real-time train communications system among drivers, train-traffic controllers and field workers is necessary to share hazard information (i.e. rockfall detection, track maintenance) in low visibility zones (long tunnels and steep curved track). To develop the appropriate communication system, this paper proposes a new way of power line communication using the rail track (Rail - PLC), which has little noise and distortion of attenuation. Therefore, it is important to measure the impedance of the rail and to apply an impedance matching technique to increase the transmission characteristic of the Rail - PLC. This study would evaluate the reflection and the transmission characteristics of the rail using a network analyzer and an impedance matching transformer. The suitable impedance matching ratio was 1:3.28 from the result of back-to-back testing. The results confirmed that the transformer can improve the performance of the transmission signal in Rail - PLC using an impedance matching technique.

A novel multi-section power divider configuration is Proposed to obtain wide-band frequency performance up to microwave frequency region. Design procedures for the proposed microwave broadband power divider are composed of a Planar multi-section three-Ports hybrid and a waveguide transformer design procedures. The multi∼section power divider is based on design theory of the optimum quarter- wave transformer Furthermore, in order to obtain the broadband isolation performance between the two adjacent output ports, the odd mode equivalent circuit should be matched by using the lossy element such as resistor. The derived design formula for calculating these odd mode∼matching elements is based on the singly terminated filter design theory. The waveguide transformer section is designed to suppress the propagation of the higher order modes such as waveguide modes due to employing the metallic electric wall. Simulation and experiment show excellent performance of multi section power divider.
