Recently, the use of an electrical apparatus has brought up concerns of health risks from exposure to electromagnetic fields. EMF is composed of electric fields and magnetic fields. Heavy exposure to EMF can occur only in the vicinity of high-voltage overhead transmission lines, close to transformers and underground cables, and also close to large electrical machinery. In this thesis I have investigated the hypothesis of the correlation between occupational exposure to ELF-EMF and the risks of leukemia, anemia, cancer. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate whether or not ELF-EMF emitted from electric power stations and transformer substations affect some hematological parameters and tumor markers of electric utility workers. The hematological test results and tumor markers under investigation were similar in the two groups but some of parameters such as RBC, AFP, LDH showed significant difference between the two groups from two sample t-test (p<0.05). The exposure group showed increased LDH level compared to the control group by two sample t-tests. In addition, the abnormal LDH level in the exposure group was observed to be clinically significant by ${\chi}^2$-test. However, the levels of RBC, AFP observed were not clinically significant by ${\chi}^2$-test (p>0.05). These results suggested that ELF-EMF does not affect most blood test parameters except LDH of electric utility workers.

본 연구에서는 센서상의 전하량 변화를 통하여 전위차를 측정할 수 있는 수동형 전기장센서를 이용하여 사람의 손동작에 의해 유발되는 신호를 측정 장치의 전원이나 주변 전력선에 의해 센서에 유입되는 잡음(PLN: Power Line Noise)의 고조파 성분을 분석하여 동작신호를 검출하고 추출하는 연구를 수행 한다. 전기장 센서에 유입되는 전력선잡음으로 센서가 사람의 존재, 접근, 동작에 의해 영향 받는 사실을 이용해 PLN의 주성분인 60Hz 고조파 성분의 스펙트럼분석을 수행하여 PLN 신호의 증가 또는 감소를 식별할 수 있고 상대적으로 동작에 민감한 120Hz 성분을 이용한다. FFT를 사용하여 120Hz의 신호성분이 특정 임계값을 통과할 때 신호를 검출하는 방법이다. 동작이 탐지되는 경우 임계값을 기준으로 프레임을 결정한다. 본 연구의 방법을 이용하여 얻은 동작 감지 성공률은 약 90% 수준을 달성하였다. 이렇게 감지된 동작신호로 추출한 프레임의 정확도는 약 85%이다. 수동형 전기장 센서를 이용하여 동작신호를 PLN을 이용하여 동작검출에 이용한 연구사례는 국내외적으로 드문 사례이며, 본 논문에서는 PLN이 상존하는 실내 적용환경에서 유망하게 활용될 수 있다.

For large scale power applications of HTS conductor, it is getting more important to have a stacked HTS coated conductor with low loss and large current capacity. But it was not easy to measure some electric properties. Stabilizer free YBCO CC for striated/ stacked conductors is easily burned out during the measurement of the critical current density because it has no stabilizer and it is difficult to set-up the current lead and voltage taps because it has many pieces of YBCO CC in a conductor. Instead of direct measuring the critical current of a stacked HTS coated conductor, indirect estimation from measuring a magnetization loss of HTS coated conductor could be useful for practical estimation of the critical current. The magnetization loss of a superconductor is supposed to be affected by a full penetrating magnetic field, and it tends to show an inflection point at the full penetrating magnetic field when we generate the graph of magnetization loss vs. external magnetic field. The full penetrating magnetic field depends on the shape of the conductor and its critical current density, so we can estimate the effective critical current density from measuring the magnetization loss. In this paper, to prove the effectiveness of this indirect estimation of the critical current, we prepared several different kinds of YBCO CC(coated conductor) including a stacked conductor short samples and measured the magnetization losses and the critical currents of each sample by using linked pick up coils and direct voltage measurement with transport current respectively.

본 연구에서는 임의의 각도로 분기되어 있는 전력선로 근방의 자계를 유도하여 정식화 하였으며 이 공식을 이용함으로써 그 자계 계산을 쉽게 할 수 있다. 이 공식들은 분기선로가 있는 배전선로의 설계 시 검토자료로서 활용할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다. 예로서 자계요소에 관한 공식들을 분기선로가 있는 3상 배전선로 모델에 적용하여 메틀랩 프로그램에 의해 계산하였으며 그 결과를 제시하였다. 그 분석결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 합성자계는 분기각이 작고 관측점의 높이 z가 낮으면 전 y-축상에 걸쳐 By 요소가 지배적이다. 이 합성자계는 분기각 ${\alpha}=\frac{\pi}{2}$[rad]의 경우 Bx의 영향을 크게 받는다. 또한 이 합성자계는 전력선 높이와 같은 전선로 근방에서 Bz요소가 지배적이며 분기각이 ${\alpha}>\frac{\pi}{2}$[rad]의 경우에는 y축의 분기전선 위치에서 매우 큰 값을 나타낸다.

This paper presents the method for an estimation of discharge current waveform in short gap discharge by radiated electromagnetic fields. The method of current waveform estimation is to use the one antenna method (single field method) with a measured electric or magnetic field at given field point by a time domain antenna. In order to verify the availability of the estimation theory, the discharge current waveform estimation was performed by one antenna methods using the measured electric fields of Wilson & Ma and compared with experiments. In addition diagnosis technique for power equipments is able to prevent from large accidents by finding signs of tile accidents before they happen. From the results of the estimation of discharge current, we have a possibility for the application of insulation diagnosis technique for power equipments using S$F_6$ gas. From this point of view, this paper simulated discharge progress and partial discharge by using needle-plan electrodes system in S$F_6$, studied the distribution of frequency spectrum of the radiated electromagnetic waves using a biconical antenna and a spectrum analyzer. From the experimental results of this study, according to the consideration of the mutual relation between frequency spectrum of the radiated electromagnetic waves and discharge progress, it was confirmed that detecting Partial discharge and estimating discharge progress in S$F_6$ could be Possible.

행성간 자기장(Interplanetary Magnetic Field)이 남쪽방향으로 전환되면서 발생된 2003년 자기폭풍 동안 한반도 상공 전리층의 총 전자수 함유량(Total Electron Content, TEC) 변화에 대해 알아보았다. 남쪽방향의 행성간 자기장과 지구 자기장의 상호작용에 의해 고위도에서 유도된 전기장과 저위도 전리층으로 전파된 전기장이 저위도 지역의 TEC 증가와 관련 있는 것으로 생각된다. 데이터 분석결과 2003년 6월 16일에 발생한 이벤트 동안에는 낮 지역 TEC 값이 약 15% 증가하였다. F2층의 최대 높이를 나타내는 hmF2는 300km 까지 상승되었으며, 수직방향 $E{\times}B$ 표류운동은 아랫방향으로 나타났다. 이것은 남쪽방향의 행성간 자기장 동안 고위도 지역으로 유입된 에너지에 의해 발생한 전리층의 교란된 다이나모 전기장이 TEC을 증가시킨 것으로 추정된다. 그러나 11월 20일에 발생한 이벤트 동안에는 전리층으로 전파된 서쪽방향 전기장에 의해 밤 지역 TEC 갈이 약 10% 증가한 것으로 보여 진다. 행성간 자기장이 남쪽방향으로 전환됨과 동시에 hmF2 높이는 200km까지 감소되었으며, 아랫방향 $E{\times}B$ 표류운동이 나타났다. 또한 행성간 전기장 y성분과 수직방향 TEC 값이 거의 비슷하게 변화하는 것을 볼 수 있었다. 이러한 결과들은 서로 다른 원인에 의해 발생하였지만 전리층의 교란된 전기장이 한반도 상공의 순간적인 TEC 값 증가에 중요한 요인으로 작용함을 보여 준다.

Both the electrically positive and negative particles in a cell of quick response-liquid powder display (QR-LPD) are surrounded by conductive electrodes on the upper and lower substrate and the dielectric materials of the barrier ribs. Particles in a cell are attached to or detached from the other materials by image force, electric field, Coulomb's force, and Van der Waals' force. Through these forces, the moving particles form an image but induce clumping phenomena. Particles having a large kinetic energy by a large q/m value crash into the opposite electrode with high speed at a large driving voltage and quickly lose electrically charged material. As a result, these particles are clumped and degrade panel performance. The clumped particles in a cell are observed by microscopic photographs and ascertained by a response time. When the bias voltage is increased to 0.68-0.76 $V/{\mu}m$, particle clumping occurs abruptly and the response time increases sharply. This particle clumping is similarly observed after the number of driving times at the driving voltage (0.42-0.64 $V/{\mu}m$).

We demonstrated a polymer dielectric with low leakage characteristics through an optimal blade coating method for low-cost and large-scale fabrication of metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitors. Cross-linked poly(4-vinylphenol) (C-PVP), which is a typically used polymer dielectric, was coated on a 10 × 10 cm indium-tin-oxide (ITO) deposited glass substrate by changing the deposition temperature (TD) and coating velocity (VC) in the blade coating. During the blade coating, the thickness of the thin c-PVP varied depending on TD and VC owing to the 'Landau-Levich (LL) regime'. The c-PVP-dielectric-based MIM capacitor fabricated in this study showed the lowest leakage current characteristics (10-6 A/㎠ at 1.2 MV/㎠, annealing at 200 ℃) and uniform electrical characteristics when TD was 30 ℃ and VC was 5 mm/s. In addition, at TD = 30 ℃, stable leakage characteristics were confirmed when a different electric field was applied. These results are expected to positively contribute to applications with next-generation electronic devices.

A sub-cooled liquid nitrogen cooling system is known as a most promising method to develop large scale superconducting apparatuses such as superconducting fault current limiters and superconducting cables [1]. Gaseous helium (GHe), gaseous nitrogen ($GN_2$) and sulfur hexafluoride ($SF_6$) are commonly used for designing an high voltage applied superconducting device as an injection gaseous medium [2, 3]. In this paper, the analysis on the dielectric characteristics of GHe, $GN_2$ and $SF_6$ are conducted by designing and manufacturing sphere-to-plane electrode systems. The AC withstand voltage experiments on the various gaseous insulation media are carried out and the results are analyzed by using finite element method (FEM) considering field utilization factors (${\xi}$). It is found that the electric field intensity at sparkover ($E_{MAX}$) of insulation media exponentially decreases according to ${\xi}$ increases. Also, the empirical expressions of the functional relations between $E_{MAX}$ and ${\xi}$ of insulation media are deduced by dielectric experiments and computational analyses. It is expected that the electrical insulation design of applied superconducting devices could be performed by using the deduced empirical formulae without dielectric experiments.
