The aging of the insulation reduces the electrical and mechanical strength of the insulation. At same point, a voltage surge or mechanical shock from a traction motor start will fracture or break down the insulation. To achieve the expected life usually requires extensive laboratory evaluation of the insulation systems and the use of accelerated aging tests. There are several nondestructive test available for checking. the condition of motor insulation, the probable extent of aging, and the rate of which aging is taking place. So the insulation characteristics of stator coil were each analyzed by measurement of dielectric loss($tan{\delta}$), capacitance and partial discharge. The method of diagnosis is able to analyze the aging condition and predict the life of the traction motor.

It is necessary to carry out quantitative analysis for the ABS hydraulic modulator to upgrade the system performances. Mathematical modeling method for the ABS hydraulic modulator, is suggested in the view of electromagnetism and fluid mechanics. Also, an analytic method is proposed for the resultant forces of electromagnetism and hydraulic pressure generated in the real vehicle ABS. The relationships between the design factor of Inlet & outlet solenoid valve and the system performance of ABS, are investigated through the analytical precess.

Surge protective devices (SPD) have a special position because of the expectation that they perform an effective protective function against various kinds of surges. However, there exists a misconception that the SPD satisfying lower measured limiting voltage (MLV) should also protect equipment against temporary overvoltages (TOVs) as well. This paper inspects various types of MOV based SPDs and carry out experiments on the side effects of the low MLV characteristics. The experiment results show that a low MLV could cause a higher TOV-induced SPD failure rate in the field.

뇌써지가 케이블 심선에 침입할 경우 케이블심선-시스간과 시스와 대지간의 써지임피던스 비에 따라 과 전압이 발생하며, 이와 같이 써지성 과전압이 방식층의 충격내전압치륵 초과할 경우 방식층을 보호하기 위 한 대책이 필요하며 그 보호장치로 절연통 보호장치를 사용하는 것이 일반적이다. 설계, 제작된 절연통 보호장치에 대해 절연저항시험, 동작개시전압시험, 뇌충격제한전압시험, 충격전류시험, 방전하에서 교류내전압시험, 절연성능시험 및 내수성능시험을 실시하여 내수성능시험을 제외한 모든 시험항목에서는 그 결과가 양호하나, 내수성능시험에서는 미세한 홈으로 물이 침투되어 불량이 발생함에 따라 절연통 보호장치는 지 중송전선로에 사용되는 보호장치로서 지중조건에서의 수밀 및 기밀특성 더욱 우수해야 하므로 내수성능시험의 중요성을 인식할 수 있었다.

This paper describes the design and fabrication of a home-panel board for electromagnetic compatibility which can protect home-electric appliances from transient voltages and power line noise. The proposed panel board include a transient voltage blocking device and a EMI filter which consisted of varistors, capacitors, and bus line inductance.A performance test of the prototype panel board, blocking characteristics to transient voltages and reduction characteristics to power line noise, are carried out by using a combination surge generator standardized in IEC and a network analyzer.The results showed that the proposed panel board is satisfied with the surge immunity level of IEC 61000-4-5, and has an over 20[dB] noise reduction performance in ranges from 150[kHz]∼30[MHz].

This paper describes the control of a solenoid valve of ESC(Electronic Stability Control) with hydraulic modulator in braking system. ESC ECU(Electronic Control Unit) to control the high-frequency control and slope control method was applied, the surge pressure and EMI(electromagnetic interference) reduction characteristics were studied. The stage of ECU output was added the slope shaping function to reduce electromagnetic emission at higher frequencies. Measurements show that this high frequency ECU manages to reduce the surge pressure and electromagnetic emission by the control of solenoid valve. In conclusion, by using the results of this study for the high frequency ECU control, we could expect enhancement of braking system performance.

This paper describes the evaluation of the long duration current impulse withstand characteristics of ZnO blocks for high voltage surge arresters. Four ZnO varistors were manufactured with the general ceramic production method and the long duration current impulse withstand test, electrical uniformity evaluation test and microstructure observation were performed. All varistors exhibited high density, which was in the range of $5.42{\sim}5.46g/cm^3$. In the electrical properties, the reference voltage of samples was in the range of $5.11{\sim}5.25\;kV$ and the residual voltage was in the range of $8.314{\sim}8.523\;kV$. In the long duration current impulse withstand test, sample No.2 and No.3 failed at the 2nd and 4th shot of series impulse currents, respectively, but the rest survived 18 shots during the test. Before and after this test, the variation ratio of the residual voltage of samples survived was below 0.5 %, which was in the acceptance range of 5 %. According to the results of the test, it is thought that if the soldering method is improved, ZnO varistors would be possible to apply to the high voltage arresters like the station class and transmission line arresters in the near future.

This study simulates the operation of a 200 kW class micro gas turbine that is currently under development. The performance and operating characteristics depending on the load control scheme (constant turbine inlet temperature versus constant turbine exit temperature) and ambient condition were investigated using detailed component performance data. The sensitivities of operating parameters, such as the compressor surge margin and flow path temperatures, according to unit fuel flow change were predicted for a wide load range. The sensitivity analysis showed that the steady state calculation provided useful information about the maximum surge margin reduction during load change.

Insulation breakdown characteristics of an inverter surge resistant enameled wire were investigated in a twisted pair prepared with organic/inorganic hybrid nanocomposite. Organic polymer was polyesterimide-polyamideimide (EI/AI) and inorganic material was a nano-sized silica. The enamel thickness was 50 μm and the diameters of enameled copper wires were 0.75, 1.024, and 1.09 mm, respectively. There were many air gaps in a twisted pair. Therefore, when the voltage was applied to the twisted pair, enamel erosion took place in the air gap area because of partial discharge according to Paschen’s law. The insulation lifetime of the hybrid wire (HW) was 41,750 sec, which was 515.4 times more than the 81 sec of EI/AIW. In addition, the shape parameter of HW was 2.58, which was 3.4 times higher than 0.75 of EI/AIW.

The purpose of this study is to examine the cause of damage to electrolytic capacitors and to present the heat generation mechanism in order to prevent the occurrence of similar problems. From the analysis results of electrolytic capacitors collected from accident sites, the fire causing area can be limited to the primary power supply for the initial accident. From the tests performed by applying overvoltage, surge, etc., it is thought that the fuse, varistor, etc., are not directly related to the accidents that occurred. The analysis of the characteristics using a switching regulator showed that the charge and discharge characteristics fell short of standard values. In addition, it is thought that heated electrolytic capacitors caused thermal stress to nearby resistances, elements, etc. It can be seen that the heat generation is governed by the over-ripple current, application of AC overvoltage, surge input, internal temperature increase, defective airtightness, etc. Therefore, when designing an electrolytic capacitor, it is necessary to comprehensively consider the correct polarity arrangement, appropriate voltage application, correct connection of equivalent series resistance(ESR) and equivalent series inductance(SEL), rapid charge and discharge control, sufficient margin of dielectric tangent, etc.
