There is widespread concern that particulate filtering respirators (PFRs) available in Korea will be efficient for nanoparticles. The purpose of this review study was to analyse research literature and recommend PFRs suitable for protection against nanoparticles. In all studies, respirators containing electret filter media (N95, P100 and FFP2, FFP3) consistently have their MPPS below 100 nm and particle penetration levels at the MPPS can vary widely, but they comply with NIOSH or EN certification criterion. Electret filtering facepieces respirators (FFRs) were found to shift in the Most-Penetrating Particle Size(MPPS) from 30-60 to 200-300 nm range after the electric charges were removed, and FFRs were above their minimum penetrations of criterion. Korean special class and first class FFRs (the same as FFP3 and FFP2, respectively) would be effcient for nanoparticles unless FFRs are removed electric charges. It is difficult to evaluate if mechanical PFRs is efficient for nanoparticles due to the lack of related materials.

The electrical properties of polyethylene are changed by the superstructure. Such crystalline polymer as polyethylene or polypropylene changes crystallinity and products spherulite or trans-crystal when it is cooled slowly. In this study, after thermal treatment of LDPE at 100[${circ}C$], in silicone oil for an hour, we made specimens in order of slow cooling, water cooling, quenching according to cooling speed. Also, to study the influence of electrical properties due to the superstructure change, we analyzed physical properties and performed dielectric breakdown experiments using DC and impulse voltage Moreover we measured space charges in bulk using Laser Induced Pressure Pulse(LIPP) method. Trap level of specimen is 0.064[eV] at the low temperature region 0.31[eV] at the high temperature region in DC dielectric strength, 0.03[eV] at the low temperature region 0.0925[eV] at the high temperature region in impulse dielectric strength. As its result shows that the quantity of charges induced from the electrode surface increases with applied voltage time, and the distribution of space charges in samples increases the quantity of charges in proportion to applied voltage.

This paper presents a study on the assessment of electrical fire hazards by electric circuits with leakage. The hazards are evaluated with the energy supplied by earth-leakage currents which flow in the circuits simulating the actual circuit of domestic premises. Also, operating time and current of ELB are measured by an experimental approach. A common specification of ELB used in this paper has a sensitivity of 30[mA] for leakage current working on the current-balance principle. Total charges and energy of leakage currents are calculated quantitatively by a theoretical approach and compared with the results obtained from experiments.

Yoke simulator has been made for understanding beam movements in the deflection fields of the CRT. Consisting of the modeler, solver and post-processor, the simulator makes yoke model (conventional and rectangular yoke) and calculates charge sources and magnetic filed by BEM (boundary element method). This system supports a number of charge elements (line and surface charges) and beam movements can be predicted by the system.

In this study, we propose an analytical model to elucidate the formation of electric fields between two parallel conducting plates. Using nine Gaussian surfaces, we investigated the charge redistributions and electric fields formed by parallel conducting plates when two charged plates get close together. The electric charges are redistributed via a new electrostatic equilibrium to create the electric field of each plates. As a result, the electric field start from + electrode plate to - electrode plate via inducing a new electrostatic equilibrium, implying that the application of Gaussian surfaces to only one of the electrodes of parallel-plate capacitors is deserved. The results will help undergraduate students understand the charge redistribution and the electric field formation in parallel-plate capacitors in a reasonable manner.

Anumerical method for the calculation of electric fields with two-dielectric media is described. The basis of the method is the use of fictitious charges as a particular solution of Laplace's (and Poisson's) equations. Simple examples were chosen for the explanation of the method and the close agreement between calculated and analytical values was obtained. It has been shown that the charge simulation method is better in calculation time and accuracy.

Two kinds of the calculation technique are Investigated with 3D triangular SCM for the arrangement of the dielectric sphere with different resistivity under a uniform electric field. The calculation error of Method I is small outside the sphere, but considerably high Inside. On the other hand, the accuracy is much Improved even Inside the solid dielectric by Method II, which uses double layers of triangular charges on the dielectric boundary.

In this paper, a high speed charging algorithm that charges secondary pack battery within 40 minutes is implementation. Proposed algorithm is that suppling 4 stage pulse instead of constant voltage or current. That makes charge time short, temperature low, and extends battery life. Experimental results show that secondary pack battery is charged within 40 minutes and achieved life time about 2000 cycle.

Static electricity is an imbalance of electric charges within or on the surface of a material. All packed items that are particularly sensitive to static discharge must be protected by antistatic treatment. Otherwise, static electricity generated by an electrical insulator may cause serious damages to some sensitive electronics. In order to remove or prevent a buildup of static electricity, packed items must be treated with the application of an antistatic agent, which helps any excess charge to be evenly distributed. Functional pulp tray used for packing of electronic goods was developed with application of an antistatic agent. As the concentration of the antistatic agent increased, charging voltage and surface resistance of molded pulps decreased. The increase of humidity in surrounding atmosphere around molded pulps led to the decrease of accumulation of static charges. In conclusion, the surface treatment of the antistatic agent not only reduced or eliminated buildup of static electricity in the surface, but also prevented generation of tiny dirts from molded tray.

With the increasing deployment of distributed generators in the distribution system, a very large search space is required when dynamic programming (DP) is applied for the optimized dispatch schedules of voltage and reactive power controllers such as on-load tap changers, distributed generators, and shunt capacitors. This study proposes a new optimal voltage and reactive power scheduling method based on dynamic programming with a heuristic searching space reduction approach to reduce the computational burden. This algorithm is designed to determine optimum dispatch schedules based on power system day-ahead scheduling, with new control objectives that consider the reduction of active power losses and maintain the receiving power factor. In this work, to reduce the computational burden, an advanced voltage sensitivity index (AVSI) is adopted to reduce the number of load-flow calculations by estimating bus voltages. Moreover, the accumulated switching operation number up to the current stage is applied prior to the load-flow calculation module. The computational burden can be greatly reduced by using dynamic programming. Case studies were conducted using the IEEE 30-bus test systems and the simulation results indicate that the proposed method is more effective in terms of saving electric charges and improving the voltage profile than loss minimization.
