Total maximum daily load have been implemented and indicated that nonpoint discharge coeffients in flow duration curve were 0.50 of Normal flow duration ($Q_{185}$) and 0.15 of low flow duration($Q_{275}$). By using SWAT, nonpoint discharge coefficients are studied with the conditions of the instream flow and the rainfall in two study areas. The nonpoint discharge coefficient average of BOD and TP for normal flows duration in 3 years are 0.32~0.36 and 0.28~0.31. For the low flow duration, the nonpoint discharge coefficient avergae of BOD and TP were 0.10~0.12 and 0.10~0.11. These are lower than the coefficients of total maximum load regulation. There are big differences between one of regulation and one of SWAT for the normal flow duration. With the consideration of rainfall condition, the nonpoint discharge coefficient of flood flow duration are influenced on the amount of rainfalls. However, the nonpoint discharge coefficients of normal flow duration and low flow duration are not effected by the rainfall condition. Since the spatial distribution and geomorphological characteristics could be considered with SWAT, the estimation of nonpoint discharge coefficient in watershed model is better method than the use of the recommended number in the regulation.

At present, electric power industry around the world are being gradually changed to a new paradigm, such as electrical energy storage system, the wireless power transmission. Demand for ESS, the core technology of the new paradigm, has been growing worldwide. However, it is essential to estimate the optimal capacity of ESS facilities for frequency regulation because the benefit would be saturated in accordance with the investment moment and the increase of total invested capacity of ESS facilities. Hence, in this paper, the annual optimal mathematical investment model is proposed to estimate the optimal capacity and to establish investment plan of ESS facility for frequency regulation. The optimal mathematical investment model is newly established for each season, because the construction period is short and the operation effect for the load by seasons is different unlike previous the mathematical investment model. Additionally, the marginal operating cost is found by new mathematical operation model considering no-load cost and start-up cost as step functions improving the previous mathematical operation model. ESS optimal capacity is established by use value in use iterative methods. In this case, ESS facilities cost is used in terms of the value of the beginning of the year.

In this paper, we have examined electrical characteristics of LDO regulator according to the process variation using a 1 ${\mu}m$ 20 V high voltage CMOS process. The electrical analysis of LDO regulator have been performed with three kind of SPICE parameter sets (Typ : typical, FF : fast, SS : slow) by process variation which cause change of SPICE parameter such as threshold voltage and effective channel length of MOS devices. From simulation results, we confirmed that in case of SS type SPICE parameter set, the LDO regulator has 3.6 mV/V line regulation, 0.4 mV/mA load regulation and 0.86 ${\mu}s$ output voltage settling time. And in case of Typ type SPICE parameter set, the LDO regulatorhas 4.2 mV/V line regulation, 0.44 mV/mA load regulation and 0.62 ${\mu}s$ output voltage settling time. Finally, in the FF type SPICE parameter set, the LDO regulator has 7.0 mV/V line regulation, 0.56 mV/mA load regulation and 0.27 ${\mu}s$ output voltage settling time.

This paper investigated application of fractional-slot concentrated-winding axial flux permanent magnet machines for wind turbines. Design criteria of cogging torque and voltage regulation was firstly proposed for this kind of application. Fractional winding has small cogging torque which is highlight for wind turbines, but slot leakage inductance would increase voltage regulation, which is an important performance index of generators. By varying slot opening, cogging torque and slot leakage inductance could be adjusted. In this paper, cogging torque and inductances were calculated by both analytical and finite element methods. Voltage regulation was studied by two-axis model under unity-power-factor load and verified by transient finite element analysis.

This paper presents an improved droop method of the high voltage DC power supply which minimizes the voltage droop of a parallel-connected power supply. Conventionally, the droop method has been used to achieve a simple structure and no-interconnections among the power sources. However, it has a trade-off between output voltage regulation and load sharing accuracy. In this paper, the droop is minimized with a current and droop gain control using steady-stage estimation. The proposed method can achieve both high performance voltage regulation and load sharing. Two 10kV, 100mA parallel power modules were made and tested to verify the proposed current-sharing method.

Output voltage of a DC/DC power converter system is likely to be distorted if variable loads exist in the output terminal. This paper presents a new disturbance observer(DOB) approach to maintain a robust regulation of the output voltage of a boost type DC/DC converter. Unlike the buck-type converter case, the regulation problem of the boost converter is very complicated by the fact that, with respect to the output voltage to be regulated, the system is non-minimum phase. Owing to the non-minimum phase property the classical DOB approach has not been applied to the boost converter. Motivated by a recent result on the application of DOB to non-mimimum phase system, an output feedback control law is proposed by using a parallel feedforward compensator. Simulation results using the Simulink SimPowerSystems prove the performance of the proposed controller against load variation.

Recently, a ZVT boost converter is embedded in a power factor correction system. The control circuit of the converter assures soft-switching for all the MOSFETs and load regulation. The PFC system contains additional control circuits which assure the input voltage in a sinusoidal form and feed-forward line voltage regulation. In this paper, a soft switching boost converter with zero-voltage transition(ZVT) main switch using zero-current switching(ZCS) auxiliary switch is proposed. Operating intervals of the converter are persented and analyzed. The proposed results show that the main switch maintains UT while auxiliary switch retains ZCS for the complete specified line and load conditions.

In this paper, an analysis and hysteretic controller design of a $3^{rd}$ order buck converter is presented. The proposed hysteretic controller consists of an inner current-loop, just like the conventional cascade control scheme, and an outer voltage-loop for load voltage regulation. Although it is possible to include an inner current loop from different branches of the converter, from the feasibility and operational point of view, the load side capacitor current would be the better choice. The addition of an inner current-loop improves the dynamic performance of the converter while preserving the robustness of the hysteretic control. The controller formulation and closed-loop converter performance analysis are validated through computer simulations. Few experimental results of the proposed converter are given and compared with the buck converter.

In this paper, a simplified control algorithm for a three-phase, four-wire unified power quality conditioner (UPQC) is presented to compensate for supply voltage distortions/unbalance, supply current harmonics, the supply neutral current, the reactive power and the load unbalance as well as to maintain zero voltage regulation (ZVR) at the point of common coupling (PCC). The UPQC is realized by the integration of series and shunt active filters (AFs) sharing a common dc bus capacitor. The shunt AF is realized using a three-phase, four leg voltage source inverter (VSI) and the series AF is realized using a three-phase, three leg VSI. A dynamic model of the UPQC is developed in the MATLAB/SIMULINK environment and the simulation results demonstrating the power quality improvement in the system are presented for different supply and load conditions.

Through this study, standard design guidelines for the high speed EMU have been derived to meet the crashworthiness requirements of the Korean rollingstock safety regulation. The crashworthiness regulation requires some performance requirements for two heavy collision accident scenarios; a train-to-train collision at the relative speed of 36 kph, and a collision against a standard deformable obstacle of 15 ton at 110 kph. The complete train set will be composed of 2TC-6M with 13 ton axle load, different from KTX with the power car of 17 ton axle load. Using theoretical and numerical analyses, some crashworthy design guidelines were derived in terms of mean crush forces and energy absorptions for main crushable structures and devices. The derived design guidelines were evaluated and improved using one dimensional spring-mass dynamic simulations. It is shown from the simulation results that the suggested design guidelines can easily satisfy the domestic crashworthiness requirements.
