This paper describes a cause of fire accidents on power system fire DC electric traction vehicles. We investigated fire scene of power line for DC electric traction vehicles. From analysis results, the cause of fire on power line turned out line to ground fault between a feeder of electric power services(pantagraph) and DC electric traction vehicle roof. Fire accident of DC electric traction vehicles be assumed that electric sparks had been produced between the pantagraph and the power line conductor by repetitively making contact and separation, maybe if some material like branches get in between connecting rod it makes progress line to ground fault. ZnO arresters are widely used to protect DC electric traction vehicles against overvoltages caused by lightning or switching surges. However, the arresters are deteriorated by commercial overvoltages and/or lightning one. The deteriorated arresters could lead power failures, such as line to ground fault by a thermal runaway resulting from the increases in leakage current even in a nominal power system voltage. Finally, the power failures would be causative of the fire accident.

However, the arresters are deteriorated by commercial frequency overvoltages and/or lightning one. Deteriorated arresters could lead power failures, such as line to ground fault by a thermal runaway resulting from the increases in leakage current even in a nominal power system voltage. The power failures, such as line to ground fault would be causative of the fire accidents.

In this Paper, Insulation of current lead in the conduction-cooled DC reactor for the 1.2kV class 3 high-Tc superconducting fault current limiter(SFCL) is studied. Thermal link which conducts heat energy but insulates electrical energy is selected as a insulating device for the current lead in the conduction-cooled Superconducting DC reactor. It consists of oxide free copper(OFC) sheets, Polyimide films, glass fiberglass reinforced Plastics (GFRP) plates and interfacing material such an indium or thermal compound. Through the test of dielectric strength in L$N_2$, polyimide film thickness of 125 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ is selected as a insulating material. Electrical insulation and heat conduction are contrary to each other. Because of low heat conductivity of insulator and contact area between electrical insulator and heat conductor, thermal resistance of conduction-cooled system is increased. For the reducing of thermal resistance and the reliable contact between Polyimide and OFC, thermal compound or indium can be used As thermal compound layer is weak layer in electrical field, indium is finally selected for the reducing of thermal resistance. Thermal link is successfully passed the test. The testing voltage was AC 2.5kVrms and the testing time was 1 hour.

본 연구에서는 부산시 금정구 금정산 일대에서 채취한 단층비지대의 공학적 특성을 여러 형태의 절리모형실험을 통하여 파악하였다. 이 지역은 양산단층과 동래단층과 같은 주요 대규모 단층과 부수적인 소규모 단층이 다수 분포하고 있어, 이 지역의 시추공 중 이러한 단층을 관통한 시추공에서 단층비지 및 흑운모 화강암 절리 시료를 추출하여 실내 실험에 사용하였다. 우선 단층비지대의 광물학적 특성을 파악하기 위한 XRD 및 SEM 분석에서는 단층비지대가 수분 함유에 따른 급격한 전단강도 감소를 예측할 수 있는 판상구조의 점토광물인 kaolinite, montmorillonite, illite, sericite으로 이루어져 있는 것으로 파악되었다. 단층비지에 대한 전단강도 특성은 비지 자체의 전단강도 측정과 단층비지를 충전한 여러 형태의 자연 및 인공절리면에 대한 절리면의 전단강도 측정으로 구하였다. 실험 결과, 단층비지가 충전된 절리면은 충전물질이 없는 절리면보다 급격한 전단강도의 감소가 발생하였으며, 단층비지의 내부 마찰각보다 절리면 사이에 충전된 단층비지의 마찰각이 더욱 낮게 측정되었다. 이러한 실험 결과는 암반과 접하고 있는 단층비지의 전단 특성은 단층비지 자체가 가진 전단강도보다 더욱 작은 값을 가지기 때문에 암반 구조물의 안정성을 저해하는 요소로 작용할 수 있다는 것을 보여주고 있다.

Propagation of the generalized Rayleigh waves in an elastic half-space covered by an elastic layer for different initial stress combinations and imperfect contact conditions is investigated. Three-dimensional linearized theory of elastic waves in initially stressed bodies in plane-strain state is employed, the corresponding dispersion equation is derived and an algorithm is developed for numerical solution to this equation. Numerical results on the influence of the initial stress patterns and on the influence of the contact conditions are presented and discussed. The case where the external forces are "follower forces" is considered as well. These investigations provide some theoretical foundations for the study of the near-surface waves propagating in layered mechanical systems and can be successfully used for estimation of the degree of the bonded defects between layers, fault characteristics and study of the behavior of seismic surface waves propagating under the bottom of the oceans.

In this paper we have studied the characteristics of temperature fields in a Molded Case Circuit Breaker (MCCB). A switch and a trip device are arranged in narrow space of the MCCB. Thus, thermal factors have been risen to important problem. The temperature rise means an energy loss and it becomes the reason of fatal fault in devices. Also, the temperature rise on the connection and the contact parts is regulated up to $115^{\circ}C$ and $105^{\circ}C$, respectively. Therefore, a study for preventing the temperature rise should be investigated. A numerical analysis method that has confidence might be preceded for this purpose. In order to verify the confidence of temperature field analysis, the results of the numerical analysis are compared with those of experimental one for the same model. Comparison results show a qualitatively good agreement within ${\pm}5%$ errors.

According to 2014 fire statistical yearbook in the National Fire Data System, a main cause of fire is electrical fire except carelessness fire. Joint/contact badness is the one of the main cause of electrical fire. Furthermore, power relays which are used in electric panel board, motor control center and automation controller, are main element of automation system in the industry field. Overload, voltage unbalance and open-phase due to joint/contact badness of terminal make electric accidents or electrical fires. In order to prevent joint/contact badness of terminal, this paper proposes a sensing circuit of chattering, tracking, arc current, voltage unbalance and open-phase etc. Some experimental tests of the proposed apparatus confirm practicality and validity of the theoretical results.

The wear test has been performed to evaluate the wear mechanism of steam generator (SG) tube materials against ferritic stainless steel in water environment. The wear rates of SG tube materials depend on the change of mechanical properties between contact surfaces during wear test. From the subsurface hardness test, Inconel 690 is more work-hardened than Inconel 600 even though these materials have similar hardness values before the wear test. Main cause is due to the difference of stacking fault energy with the chromium content. In water environment, wear mechanism is closely related with the continuous formation and fracture of deformation layers at the contact surfaces.

Owing to the increasing number of intelligent homes(or called Smart home), the corresponding cost is much higher. Low voltage circuit breakers are widely used in the intelligent homes to interrupt fault current rapidly and to assure the reliability of the power supply. The distribution of magnetic field induced by arc current in the contact system of molded case circuit breaker(hereafter MCCB) depends on the shape, arrangement, and kinds of material of arc runner. This paper is focused on understanding the interrupting capability, more specifically of the arc runner, based on the shape of the contact system in the current MCCB. The magnetic driving force was calculated by using the flux densities induced by the arc current, which are obtained by three-dimensional finite element method. There is a need to assure that the optimum design required to analyze the electromagnetic forces of the contact system generated by current and the flux density be present. This is paper present our computational analysis on contact system in MCCB.

울산단층 동쪽 지괴에 발달한 제4기 단층인 개곡1, 개곡2, 신계, 마동, 원원사, 진현단층을 대상으로 X선회절분석(XRD), 전자현미분석(EPMA), 후방산란전자영상분석(BSE), K-Ar연대측정법을 이용하여 단층비지의 광물조성과 미세조직의 특징을 연구하였다. 단층비지내 변질광물들은 단층운동에 수반된 열수변질작용으로 형성되었다. $28.9Ma\~44.3Ma$ 범위의 연대를 나타내는 단층비지는 주로 점토광물, 석영, 장석으로 구성된다. 점토광물은 스멕타이트가 주구성 광물이고 소량으로 녹니석, 일라이트 및 카올리나이트가 산출된다. 접촉부 모암과 단층 비지대에서는 단층작용과 관련된 열수작용에 의해 광물의 변질작용의 흔적이 쉽게 인지되고, 주입비지와 절단된 방해석맥 등과 같이 단층작용이 반복된 증거를 볼 때 단층비지대는 다중변형작용의 산물임을 알 수 있다. 녹색 내지 녹회색 계통인 진현단층의 비지의 경우 적색계통의 다른 단층비지에 비해 $Al_2O_3$의 함량이 높고, MgO와 CaO의 함량은 낮다. 스멕타이트의 화학분석 결과, 단층비지의 색은 기질을 구성하는 점토광물의 종류와 화학적 조성과도 밀접한 관계를 가진다.
