Important key technologies of high-$T_c$ superconducting (HTS) transformer may include the HTS wire technology, bushing technology, cooling technology, AC loss, reduction technology, large current technology, and cryogenic temperature insulation technology. From among others, the cryogenic temperature insulation technology may be specifically a core technology for ensuring reliability for the smaller size, stability, economic efficiency, and power supply of a transformer. Therefore, the electric insulation technology of a superconducting transformer should be prerequisite. Such relevant studies are ongoing, but still, they are very insufficient for establishing the cryogenic insulation technology as of yet. Therefore, this paper simulated HTS transformer applied with continuous transposed conductor (CTC), which has been studied as a way of reducing AC loss. Also, the paper analyzed the insulation configuration of HTS transformer and bushing, and, accordingly, reviewed various characteristics of insulation breakdown out of liquid nitrogen. Thus, the paper constituted insulation database, and it is going to design the insulation of a transmission class HTS transformer and bushing.

Polyamidimide (PAI)-colloidal silica (CS) nanohybrid films were synthesized by an advanced sol-gel process. The synthesized PAI-CS hybrid films have a uniform and stable chemical bonding and there is no interfacial defects observed by TEM. The thermal degradation ratio of PAI-CS (10 wt%) hybrid films is delayed by 100 ℃ compared with pure PAI sample determined by on set temperature range in TGA. The dielectric constant of PAI-CS (10 wt%) hybrid films decreases with increasing CS content up to about 5 wt% but increases at higher CS content, which is not explained simply by effective medium therories (EMT). The duration time of PAI-CS (10 wt%) hybrid coil is 38 sec, which is very longer than that of pure PAI coil sample. The PAI-CS (10 wt%) hybrid film has a higher breakdown voltage resistance than the pure PAI film at surge environment and exhibits superior heat resistance. The PAI-CS (10 wt%) sample shows the advanced and stable thermal emission properties in transformer module compared with the pure PAI sample. This result illustrates that the advanced thermal conductivity and expansion properties of PAI-CS sample in the case of appropriate sol-gel processes brings the stable thermal emission in transformer system. Therefore, new PAI-CS hybrid samples with such stable thermal emission properties are expected to be used as a high functional coating application in ET, IT and electric power products.

In this paper, as there are many cases of fires occurring due to the failure or inoperability of the thermostat of electronic products, the purpose is to test and analyze the risks and probabilities through fire cases and reproduction experiments, and suggest countermeasures. Among electronic products, water purifiers are composed of a refrigerant system with a compressor to make cold water, a heating device to make hot water, and an electric device used as an energy source. Due to the nature of the water purifier manufacturing, these devices are subject to a lot of moisture and dust. etc. exist in large quantities and use electrical energy, so there is a possibility of fire due to short circuit in the wire, electrical abnormal overheating (tracking phenomenon) in the thermostat, electronic board, starting relay, etc., and overheating of the heating device (Band Heater). there is. Therefore, in order to prevent fires from these devices, a system to remove foreign substances inside the water purifier is necessary, the use of heat-resistant (fire-resistant) wires for electrical devices is essential, and the use of non-combustible materials (semi-combustible materials) for each part is necessary to prevent fire. The risk must be eliminated through prevention and combustion expansion prevention devices.

This paper deals with the power supply facility providing wireless power transmission for a type of electric vehicles called the on-line electric vehicle(OLEV) and proposes optimal protection coordination methods which analyze the faultsin the 60Hz and 20kHz bands using PSCAD/EMTDC, which is the typical commercial software for the distribution system. The simulation results show that the proposed methods can reduce the fault current by introducing an NGR (Neutral Ground Resistor) in the 60Hz band and prevent the malfunctioning of the protection device by installing a CT in the neutral wire in the 20kHz band when a ground fault occurs.

The railway is a public transportation system that provides large-scale passenger transportation and service, whose reliability and safety is the top priority. The wiring of railway vehicles is classified into train control lines (train lines) and communication lines. The train lines are used for input / output signals related to vehicle driving and safety functions, and the communication lines are used for the input / output signals for passenger services such as broadcasting. In order to measure the reliability of railway vehicles, a train line is applied to the input / output interface of the control signals between the electric control devices in the vehicle, and there are many electromechanical devices such as relays and contactors for the control logic. In fact, since the vehicle control circuit is composed of several thousand contacts, it is difficult to check for errors such as contact failure, and it is impossible to check the real-time status, so a lot of manpower and time is required for regular maintenance. Therefore, we analyze the current state of the train line design of the electric equipment used for driving and services in domestic railway cars and propose three wiring reduction methods to improve it. Based on the analysis of domestic electric vehicles, it was confirmed that the wiring reduction effect is 35% or more.

This paper proposes a design method for a 3-phase interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) and clamping force control method for an electro-mechanical brake (EMB) using co-simulation for a high-speed train (HST). A traditional pneumatic brake system needs much space for the compressor, brake reservoir, and air pipe. However, an EMB system uses up to 50% less space due to the use of a motor and electric wires for controlling the brake caliper. In addition, it can reduce the latency time for brake control because of the fast response and precise control. A train that has many brakes is advantageous for safety because of the control by sharing the braking force. In this paper, a driving method for a cam-shaft-type EMB is modeled. It is different from the ball-screw-type brakes that are widely used in automobiles. In addition, a co-simulation method is proposed using JMAG and Matlab/Simulink. The IPMSM was designed and analyzed with the JMAG tool, and the control system was simulated using Matlab/Simulink. The effectiveness of the co-simulation results of the mechanical clamping force and braking force was verified by comparison with the clamping force specifications of a HEMU-430X HST.

In recent years, due to the spread of various renewable energy power sources and the pursuit of high efficiency and low-power consumption, not only trends in the electric power industry but also the consumption, control methods, and characteristics are diversified. However, in this diversified electric power industry, the fuse (which is the core part responsible for safety) has not developed significantly in classical operation mode, and thus, fires continue to occur. In this paper, the effects of low melting-point metal plating and high melting-point metal plating on operating characteristics and IT curve movement of the fuse are investigated in a cartridge fuse, which is a classic fuse manufacturing method. The effects of plating on the thickness of the fuse are investigated, and various operating characteristics of the fuse are implemented. In addition, it is suggested that the plating of the low melting-point metal moves the rated current line of the fuse to a low rating, and moves operating characteristics to characteristics of delay operation. It is possible to design various operating characteristics using this characteristic.

Although the electrophoretic deposition method has the advantage of simple processing procedure, less fabrication facilities, and easier control for deposition thickness and wire length, providing economical and technical merits, it also has the disadvantages of cracking and porosity phenomena, requiring an improved processing method for higher particle density and constant particle orientation. we have developed an optimization method to increase the particle density and to unify its orientation, and have performed a study to overcome the cracking and porosity problems in the fabricated superconductor. In order to improve the surface uniformity and the conduction properties of the fabricated YBCO thick films, a system that applies alternate voltage vertically has been developed for the first time and applied to the electrophoretic deposition process. The applied alternate electric field caused a force to be exerted on each YBCO particle and resulted in a rotation of the particle in the direction of applied electric field, accomplishing a uniform particle orientation. We name this process as the shaky-aligned electrophoretic deposition method. For commercial utilization and efficiency, in this dissertation, alternating voltage of 60 Hz and 25 ∼ 120 V/cm was proposed to apply it as a subsidiary source for shaky-flow deposition so that the fabricated thin film showed uniform surface morphology with less voids and cracks and Tc,zero of 90 K and the critical current density of 3419 A/$cm^2$.

In order to facilitate the supply of gradually increasing power demand, it is also necessary to increase the number of power cables for power transmission as well as generation facilities. However, the expansion of electric power cables for supplying power to most urban areas requires a space for installation of additional cables, and the space for installing cables in domestic downtown areas is insufficient at present. The superconducting power cable, which can transmit more power with the same size, has emerged as an alternative to overcome the insufficient cable installation space. However, superconducting power cables, which have the advantage of large power transmission, have some losses in the AC (Alternating Current) system. Therefore, the design and analysis of AC losses are essential to introduce superconducting power cables in AC power transmission systems. In this paper, we analyze the AC loss of various superconducting power cables and consider the actual superconducting power cables and their application to the system. Although there is a theoretical calculation method of AC loss for single superconducting wire, it is not easy to calculate AC loss of superconducting power cable with large number. Therefore, the authors intend to analyze various kinds of superconducting power cable AC loss by using electromagnetic finite element analysis considering E-J (Electric field-Current density) characteristics of superconductivity. The analysis of the AC loss characteristics of the superconducting power cable will be an important factor in the design and development of the superconducting power cable to be applied to the actual system.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of electric fusion methods on cell fusion rate and embryo development by somatic cell nuclear transfer in Korean Native Cattle. The KNC ear cell was cultured in vitro for confluence in serum starvation condition(DMEM＋0.05％ FBS) for cell confluence. The zona pellucida of IVM oocytes were partially dissection using micro pipette. Ear cells were transferred into an enucleated oocyte. The reconstructed embryos were electrically fused with Zimmermann Cell Fusion Medium(ZCFM). Nuclear transfer embryos were activated with a combination of 10${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ calcium ionophore(5 min) and 2.0mM 6-DMAP(3 hr). The activated embryos were cultured in CR1 -aa medium contains 0.3％ BSA or 10％ FBS at 37$^{\circ}C$, 90％ $N_2$, and 5％ $CO_2$in incubator for 6 days. The fusion rates were 51.6％(chamber) and 68.9％(needle), respectively and there were significantly difference between the fusion method(P<0.05). But, lysis rates were not significantly different(10.7％, 11.5％), respectively. The cleavage rates were significantly different between the chamber method(73.2％) and needle method(80.3％), respectively(P<0.05). The rates of early embryos(2∼4cells) and blastocysts of chamber and needle methods were 54.1％, 61.1％ and 18.4％, 26.3％ respectively, and needle method was significantly higher than chamber method(P<0.05). But, morulae formation rate were not significantly differences between the chamber(6.7％) and needle(6.2) method(P <0.05). These result suggest that electric fusion of needle method was to be profitable for nuclear transfer embryo fusion rate, blastocyst formation rate and reduce of oocyte lysis.
