Accidents can occur as a result of streaming electrification when transformer oil is used as an insulating oil in large ultra-high voltage transformers. Methods for adding a streaming electrification inhibitor to reduce the streaming electrification has been studied extensively. In this paper, in order to develop a method for reducing streaming electrification effectively, 4 different specimens were prepared by the addition of benzotriazole (BTA) to a virgin specimen with constant stirring. The specimens were examined to determine the appropriate amount of BTA addition that would suppress the streaming electrification most effectively. The results showed that the streaming electrification characteristics of the specimen in the streaming transformer oil were best when the amount of BTA addition was about 10 ppm. The streaming electrification current was reduced by adding 30 ppm BTA until the temperature reached $65^{\circ}C$. The polarity of the streaming electrification current was negative when the temperature exceeded $65^{\circ}C$. Therefore, the streaming electrification current, which can be a cause of transformer accidents, can be suppressed in large ultra high voltage transformer oil. This paper reports on the optimal amount of BTA addition and the best conditions for controlling the streaming velocity of transformer oil.

Improvement projects has been progressed for railway electrification and double track line in the conventional line as well as high speed line for the high speed and large transportation capability of railway. Especially, many variable operation plans are possible such as interaction between high speed line and conventional line and operation of tilting train due to the electrification of the conventional line. Railway electrification is more energy efficient and environmentally-friendly, but it has some problems such as an enormous initial construction and maintenance costs and electrical accidents. Therefore, the more intensive research will be progressed about railway electrification effectiveness for the continuous electrification project. So, we analyzed railway electrification effectiveness about the energy side using annual operation data of electric car and diesel car. The energy side was divided into energy costs and national energy consumption for analyzing electrification effectiveness about entire line and specific line. We verified advantage of energy costs and national energy consumption in this paper and this result will contribute to the progress of the continuous electrification project and the more efficient operation ways in electrification line

In this paper, the following results were obtained from the experiment in which electrification voltage of silicone rubber specimen for thermal bonding were measured under various time, temperature ($10{\sim}40^{\circ}C$), and humidity (30~90%) conditions and different amount of carbon additives (0~15 phr (per hundred resin)). Electrostatics electrification voltage decreased when carbon is up to 10 phr, and there was no electrification voltage in 15 phr condition. The electrostatics electrification voltage did not change over time. When the temperature was constant, electrostatics electrification voltage sharply dropped when the humidity was around 70%. That means, this condition might be appropriate for prevention of charging. The electrification voltage decreased as humidity and amount of carbon increased.

High speed and large transfer capability of railroad has been an important issue in Korean since KTX opening at 2004. Improvement projects for railway electrification are progressed in the conventional line as well as high speed line because various operation plan is performed such as interaction between high speed line and conventional line and operation of tilting train etc. Especially, railway electrification has many advantages which are cost effective and eco-friendly. But it also has some problems such as construction costs and accidents due to electrification. Therefore this paper developed measuring index of electrification railway benefit. By comparing between diesel and electrical locomotive, the operations of before and after the electrification and measurements quantitative index such as energy efficiency, enlargement of transfer capability, environmental pollution and maintenance and efficiency of operation is presented. In the future, Overall benefit and cost of railway electrification will be analyzed.

In this study, we have come to the following conclusions regarding to the electrification properties (electrostatic electrification voltage and electrification relaxation time) of electrostatics in the three type of specimen (size: $4cm{\times}4cm{\times}0.103cm$) of silicone rubber which is mixed with the ATH (Aluminium Trihydrate(Al($OH_3$)) of 30 phr, 60 phr, 120 phr as reinforcing filler. The electrification properties of electrostatics were measured for the different mixing ratio of ATH with the applied voltage of DC 10 kV at the temperature range of $10^{\circ}C{\sim}30^{\circ}C$ and humidity range of 60%~80%. When the temperature remained constant, the electrical resistance decreased as the humidity increasing in the range of 60%, 70%, 80%. In contrast, when the humidity remained constant, the electrical resistance increased as the temperature increasing in the range of $10^{\circ}C$, $20^{\circ}C$, $30^{\circ}C$. Regarding these results, may be it is because the absorption of O-H molecule appeared in the silicone specimen. It was confirmed that when the temperature remained constant, the electrification relaxation time decreased as the humidity increased. In contrast, when the humidity remained constant, the electrification relaxation time increased as the temperature increased.

This study made a specimen (contact surface size: $45\;mm{\times}0.02\;mm{\times}45{\sim}55\;mm$) with silicon rubber for low voltage cable with 50 phr silica filler. The electrification voltage of electrostatics were measured for different sizes of contact surface with the applied voltage of 10kV and the environmental settings of temperature ($25{\sim}40^{\circ}C$) and humidity (40~80%). The following conclusions were made. The electrification voltage of electrostatics decreased as the humidity increased. The electrification voltage of electrostatics increased as the temperature increased. The larger the surface size, the higher the electrification voltage of electrostatics. The property of the material had more effect on the relaxation time than the humidity.

This paper examined the effects of specimen elongation on the electrostatic electrification voltages when polypropylene film specimens with 500%, 650% and 700% elongations were rotated at 1550 rpm. The results were as follows. The decease of electrification voltage was not measured according to the time elapse, in case of elongated specimens with 70% environment humidity. As +10 kV was applied to the specimens with 650% elongations, the electrostatic electrification voltages were increased by the effect of environment humidity (1.23~1,25 kV at 50~60% humidity, and 1,46 kV at 70% humidity). The voltages were decreased to 1.2 kV at 700% elongation. As -10 kV was applied to the specimens with 500%, 650% and 700% elongations, the electrostatic electrification voltages were negatively increased with the increase of environment humidity and the elongation of specimens.

In order to study and obtain the mathematical relation between the electrification degree of transformer oil flow and the electrostatic current, a small amount of data about the electrification degree of oil flow and the corresponding electrostatic current is studied by linear regression method and grey model method. The results show that the linear correlation between the electrification degree and the electrostatic current was not good, and the relation between the electrification degree of oil flow and electrostatic current (i) could be expressed as ${\rho}(0)=0.2049\;i^{(0)}+169.4419$ according to grey model GM (0, 2) when the electrification degree of oil flow is represented by the charge number generated from transformer oil per unit volume, namely the charge density (${\rho}$).
