Recently the ozone generation system is well used for cleaning the contaminated water by using the strong oxidization effects of ozone. Ozone generation system is composed of ozone generation device, air or oxygen supply device and high voltage apply device. In this paper, commercial frequency was applied to the wire typed conductor. The ozone concentration was measured with air or oxygen as a supplied gas, which can be used as basic data for the development of ozonizer system.

In this paper, double Cylindrical type ozonizer has been designed and manufactured to improve ozone yield by cooling external electrode. The ozonizer equipped with three electrodes ( central, internal and external electrodes ). Discharge and ozone characteristics are described in this paper by varying the flow rate( Q ) of oxygen supplied gas, temperature of cooling gas and supplied voltage.

In this paper, discharge domain of wire-cylindrical plasma reactor was separated from a gas flow duct to avoid unstable discharge by aerosol particle deposited on discharge electrode and grounded electrode. The NOx, SOx removal was experimentally investigated by a reaction induced to ammonium nitrate, ammonium sulfate using a low price of aqueous NaOH solution and a small quantity of ammonia. Volume percentage of aqueous NaOH solution used was 20% and $N_2$ flow rate was 2.5[$\ell$/min] for bubbling aqueous NaOH solution. Ammonia gas(14.82%) balanced by argon was diluted by air and was introduced to a main simulated flue gas duct through $NH_3$ injection system which was in downstream of reactor. The $NH_3$ molecular ratio[MR] was determined based on $NH_3$ to [NO+$SO_2$]. MR is 1.5. The NOx removal rates increased in the order of DC, AC and pulse, but SOx removal rates was not significantly effected by source of electricity. The NOx removal rate slightly decreased with increasing initial concentration but SOx removal rate was not significantly effect by initial concentration, and NOx, SOx removal rates decreased with increasing gas flow rate.

The product of electrons by Pulsed Corona Discharge leads to produce radicals which work on NO, and NO is finally removed.

The rate of energy transfer increased with decreasing value of $C_p$( Pulse - Forming Capacitance 2.15, 1.06, 0.55, 0.36, 0.1[nF]. When the value of $C_p$ reached to 0.36 [nF], the energy efficiency for NO removal was maximized. And good agreement was obtained between chemical kinetic calculations and the experimental results.

The pulsed plasma wire-plate reactor was modelled on the basis of experiment and EMTP simulation. The electrical phenomena in reactor is consistent with the model we suggested. Using this model, the influence of the reactor capacitance on the impedance matching between pulse generator and reactor can be analyzed. From this, we found that the energy of 95 % was delivered from pulse generator to reactor at the ratio of $C_p$/$C_r$ $\cong$ 30 %, where $C_p$ is pulse generator capacitance, $C_r$ is reactor capacitance.

The experimental results show that the firing voltage, sustain voltage and brightness were decreased whereas the discharge current was increased as the gap increased. When the gap is over $40{\mu}m$, it was impossible to drive cells separately.

It was shown that the simulation was same as experimental result at a real PD source in the transformer.

When the high voltage is applied on insulation materials that have voids and impurities inner one, then probability of electrical tree inception is increased at defects. Electrical tree gives a profit to degradation analysis, because it is possible to observe by eyes and provides electrical degradation step. And electrical tree is divided to three types in usual - tree type, bush type and chestnut type tree. But these three types are divided not by method of quantitative analysis but visual and experiential analysis.

FD of tree types are 1.1$\sim$1.4, bush types are 1.4$\sim$1.6 and chestnut type trees have above 1.6 FD.

This paper describes the analysis results on the PT ferroresonance at 154 kV GIS (gas Insulated substation by EMTP (Electro-magnetic Transient Program). We had simulated the PT ferroresonance between a potential transformer(PT) and an open circuit breaker's grading capacitance. The ferroresonance leads to very large power frequency overvoltages on PT bus and subsequent insulation failure. The large power can be supplied to the PT by the high voltage on the opened circuit due to the grading capacitance and equivalent capacitance of the buses during the ferroresonance. The damping circuit connected on the secondary winding were considered in the model. The actual countermeasure include a saturable inductor and a resistor series-mounted, but the 2 ohms of damping resistance was used in the computational model.

In addition to the incoming surge from transmission line, the shield wire should be considered to prevent the shielding failure by the direct lightning stroke.

This paper describes the impulse response characteristics of the grounding systems in power utility system. Several regulations regarding to electric power equipments, services and managements require that the groundings of class 1 ($E_1$) and class 2 ($E_2$) must be connected at the common point in grounding systems. In addition, the grounding for arrester ($E_{LA}$), which belongs to the grounding of class 1, should be connected at the same point. However, there is no method and position of common-connection at anywhere. In this work, when the impulse current was injected through the grounding conductor for arrester, the investigations measuring and analyzing potential rises induced at the common connection point and other grounding conductors were conducted. The experiments were carried out in the conditions of the grounding conductor of 25m long and the near or remote common connection from ground electrode. The lightning impulse current was applied so as to simulate the on-set of arrester due to lightning and/or switching surges.

In this paper, we suggested the design rule of high-voltage rectangular waveform generator working in low frequency domain (5Hz $\sim$ 60Hz). Most of the commonly used power electronic switching devices have voltage ratings up to several kV. So it is difficult to design and fabricate high-voltage switching systems with the power electronic devices alone. We have combined IGBTC(1200V, 50A) with the specially designed transformer to get the high-voltage rectangular waveforms up to 40kV. In this work. next two things are the main factors. The first one is design of transformer working low-frequency domain close to 5Hz. And the second one is additional voltage source to floating the transformer voltage output. As a result, we can get frequency-variable and high-voltage rectangular voltage waveform and this can be a more efficient power source of sandpaper manufacturing process.

For the high-precision and more reliability, an iron core, which has a very high relative permeability, was used for increasing detection sensitivity, and we also used the personal computer for the data storage and program and analysis. And we have verified the reliability and performance of the sensing device through several laboratory tests.

A high frequency and energy density pulse transformer is a critical component of a high voltage power supply in a traveling wave tube (TWT) amplifier system. In this paper, processes of design, manufacturing, and test of the transformer are discussed. Primary voltage of the transformer is 240 V. The transformer secondary have two outputs which are 4100 V (Helix) and 2050 V (Collector). Total output power is 860 W. Normal operating frequency of the transformer is 10 kHz. In high energy density pulse transformers, temperature rise is a main problem during its operation. From our study, it was found that resonant current due to leakage inductance and stray capacitance was the main cause of temperature rise. This happens because of the inherently high turn-ratio in high voltage transformers. Solutions to reduce stray components are presented.

The high voltage switch used in the command charging method is the SCR (1.6 kV, 50A) and consists of 10 SCRs in series to discharge 10 kV. A pulse transformer was used to apply the trigger pulse. The objectives of this research are the fabrication of the semiconductor switch and the study of the experimental result of the operation characteristics of the high voltage semiconductor switch.

In this study, We have accomplished a new approach to develope a cheap and compact pulsed $CO_2$ laser system. We used a fast SCR as switching device instead of a thyatron in the pulsed power supply. Using the Pulse transformer, energy in the condenser is tranferred to the secondary, electrodes of discharge tube, from the primary. An axial and water cooled type was adopted as the laser cavity. The laser performance characteristics as various parameters, such as gas pressure and pulse repetition rate, have been investigated. As a result, the maxium laser output was 12.3[W] at a pulse repetition rate of 120[pps] and a filling pressure of 12[Torr].

Electric breakdown in the liquid produces a spark channel. The energy input into the channel causes expansion of a vapor gas cavity. If the power of the discharge is high enough, this expansion is fast enough to produce a shock wave which propagates through the liquid to the subject of destruction. We focused our attention on the correlation between electric parameters and the characteristics of the flash caused by point to-point electrode discharge in the water. By varying firing voltage and gap length, we obtained the features of the flash : amplitude, pulse width, and so on. In this paper, We have known that there is a concrete interrelation between underwater firing voltage and photodiode output.

In this study, it is the purpose to study about design and manufacture of a pulse transformer for using in pulse generator and a pulse laser system. In this experiment, a ferite core in transformer instead of air core is used. The performance of the transformer is demonstrated by a voltage pulse waveform according to inductance of primary and secondary in transformer. As a result, the voltage pulse width is increased as increasement of inductance in transformer. And the voltage rate between primary and secondary is almost same with rate of inductance between primary and secondary.

In this study, we have designed and manufactured not a present elliptic cavity but a circular cavity and we have experimented the operational characteristics. As a result, we obtained the maximum efficiency of 2.1 %. It didn't have any difference compared with elliptic cavity. A circular cavity is much more compact, so far easier to be manufactured than a elliptic cavity. And it can be made at a low cost. At the input energy, parameter $\alpha$, input voltage, and pulse width were in the same condition, we have decided to the optimization of the mesh number of a parallel-mesh circuit which was connected with main power supply.

Pulsed Nd:YAC laser is used widely for materials processing and instrumentation. It is very important to control the laser energy density in materials processing by a pulsed Nd:YAG laser. A pulse repetition rate and a pulse width are regarded as the most dominant factors to control the energy density of laser beam. In this study, the alternating charge-discharge system was designed to adjust a pulse repetition rate. This system is controlled by one chip microprocessor and allows to replace an expensive condenser for high frequency to a cheap condenser for low frequency. In addition. we have investigated the current pulse shape of flashlamp and the operating characteristics of a pulsed Nd:YAG laser. As a result, it is found that the laser output of the power supply using the alternating charge-discharge system is not less than that of typical power supply. As the pulse repetition rate rises from 30pps to 120pps by the step of 30pps at 1200V, it is found that the laser efficiency decreases but the laser output power increases about 6W at each step.

In this paper, we would like to study the oscillation characteristics of single mode fiber laser which is composed of a Fabry-Perot resonator, a pump source of 808nm Laser Diode, a $Er^{3+}$ doped single mode fiber with 0.5um diameter.

In this paper, a novel Generator On-line Diagnosis System (GODS) is proposed. This system monitors the insulation condition of the stator winding by on-line measurements of partial discharge (PD). Sensor, such as SSC (Stator Slot Coupler) and RFCT (Radio Frequency Current Transformer) are used for PD measurement. PD signals are continuously measured and digitized with a high speed A/D converter to build the database of the generator's insulation condition. Also this system can communicate with the central monitoring system via RS-485. This helps more efficient operation and maintenance of the generator.

The high current pulsed power systems(PPS) for rail guns, ET and ETC accelerators require many components of very high cost. If one failed to select component specifications based on optimal design, cost effective and reliable PPS could not be obtained. It is very significant to study a preliminary circuit scheme and to determine optimal specifications via circuit simulation before constructing the PPS based on modulized capacitor banks. The optimal crowbar resistor value, module inductance was determined in view of energy loss, the voltage reversal of capacitors and the transient current of crowbar diodes.

Plasma Display Panel(PDP) has mirco-cell, so it is difficult to know the physical properties of particles in PDP cell. To know this, we made a cell that is 200 times as large as a general PDP cell. Using this cell, the temperature and the density of electrons have been measured by the fast scanning probe.

Axial magnetic field($B_z$) generated by special electrode construction in vacuum interrupters(Vl) is used to extinguish electric plasma arcs because that restrains this form expending. So VI applied axial magnetic field has more interruption capacity as compared with other VI. Also, the profile of toroidal field($B_{\theta}$) generated by $B_z$, is important to VI design. In this study, it was represented that the behavior of vacuum arc. In addition, The relationship between $B_z$ and $B_{\theta}$ was represented by using Dynamo theory. I hope that this study will be a good data in design of vacuum interrupters.

Non-thermal plasma techniques is applied in many fields. Recently acid rain, global warming, ozone depletion, and smog are preeminent environmental problems. The cause for this environmental problems is the flue gas. Non-thermal plasma techniques has an attention for the solution of flue gas. Non-thermal plasma is used for the removal of flue gas composed of NOx, etc. This field has grown dramatically. This experiment is performed by using cylinder type reactor under the condition of room temperature and atmosphere pressure. NO gas is used instead of flue gas. Bidirectional pulse generator is used instead of the unidirectional pulse generator to increase the efficiency.

As a direct-view flat panel displays, there are many devices, such as plasma display panels(PDPs), vacuum fluorescent displays (VFDs), and light emitting diode(LED). Among these, a PDP is the first type of panel display to be made commercially available. A 'Plasma display' is the general term for a flat display utilizing the light emission that is produced by gas discharge. However, the brightness and Luminous efficiency are still not adequate for consumer television. So, the new sustain electrode type of ac PDP was proposed. By arranging the transparent electrode of quadrangle by zigzag, the area of electrode are reduced, and the length of electrode gap is increased. It generates a high luminous efficiency(corresponding to a 40% improvement of standard type), the same discharge voltage characteristics, and the low power consumption at same luminance.

A new type ac plasma display panel(PDP) cells are designed and tested electrically and optically. One cell has the structure of sin discharge path shape and small electrode area. The other cells have the non-symmetric structure with a same electrode area. They show a higher luminous efficienccy and a lower power consumption about 25% improvement than the conventional standard ac PDP cells.

The ac plasma display panel(PDP) is a flat light-emitting gas discharge device. Discharge gases directly take effects to the discharge phenomena of ac PDP. Therefore it is necessary to understand the characteristics of the discharge gases. In this paper, we have studied the effects of discharge gases by voltage transfer curves which show the discharge characteristics of ac PDP and the change of the effective wall capacitance during a discharge which depends on lateral spreading of charge distribution and the strength of discharge. As gas pressure increases, memory margins increases. and the firing voltage of a mixed gas is lower than that of a single gas such as He gas. The minimum sustain voltage and the maximum sustain voltage or firing voltage increases with decrease in the frequency. The effective wall capacitance increases as the discharge strength that is, the gap voltage between discharge electrodes increases.

This paper deals with the surface glow discharge characteristics and some physical properties of MgO thin films prepared by RF unbalanced magnetron sputtering(UBMS) in surface discharge type AC PDP. The minimum discharge voltage is obtained for the sample of substrate holder bias voltage -10V. The main factors that improves the discharge characteristics by applied bias voltage is considered to be due to the morphology changes or crystal structure of the MgO thin film by ion bombardment during deposition process Moreover, the anti-sputtering characteristics of MgO thin film by UBMS is more excellent than that of balanced magnetron sputtering(BMS) and E-beam evaporation method.

The most important question is how to use which kind of switch in pulsed power generation. There are many kinds of commercial closing switches, which have advantages and disadvantages. The most popular closing switch is the spark gap, but it has a disadvantage in life time, because of erosion of electrodes by arc heating. The Rotary Arc Gap (RAG) switch, especially Walkie-Edgar type RAG switch, was proposed to solve such problems in spark gap. It has a simple and special structure for arc moving caused from self-induced electromagnetic force, because moving arc makes less erosion on the electrodes. In this study we have made an Walkie-Edgar type RAG switch, tested the switching with capacitive energy storage system, and measured rotating arc speed in different peak current.

When magnetic field was applied to electric field vertically, consumption power decreased. NOx removal rate and arc transition voltage of plasma reactor with magnetic field were higher than those of plasma reactor without magnetic field.

In this paper, an ozonizer, which can generate individual and superposed silent discharge, using three-phase voltage has been designed and manufactured. The ozonizer consists of 3 electrodes(Central Electrode, Internal Electrode and External Electrode) and 2 gaps(gap between Central Electrode and Internal Electrode, gap between Internal Electrode and External Electrode). Ozone is generated according to voltage supplying method to each electrode by individual silent discharge and three-phase superposed discharge. The characteristics of ozone generation were investigated with variation of discharge power and the quantity of supplied gas($O_2$). In case of individual silent discharge, the maximum values of ozone concentration, ozone generation and ozone yield were obtained between internal electrode and external electrode, and its values were 2300[ppm], 570[mg/h] and 745[g/kWh] respectively. Each maximum values was 5039[ppm], 1773[mg/h] and 851[g/kWh] respectively, when three-phase superposed silent discharge was employed. Therefore, characteristics of ozone generation with three-phase voltage are improved compared with single-phase voltage because silent discharge is generated continuously.

The underground transmission line have been consistently developed to increase its voltage level for satisfying the customer's demand through supplying the high reliability power. The underground XLPE cable and its accessories of 500kV level have been already developed internationally, but the XLPE cable have been installed 154kV level in Korea up to now. Thus, our company has developed 230kV XLPE cable and its accessory in 1998 for preparing 345kV level system in Korea and being qualified as international cable maker of developing oversea markets. In this paper, newly our developed 230kV system will be introduced using the type test result according to IEC 840 and additional specification.

The manufacturing technology of XLPE power cable ( e.g. gas curing, triple common extrusion, clean room, super-clean compound, etc.) had been developed in 1960's and the design parameter of insulation thickness for EHV XLPE power cable at present was determined in 1960's. But, the quality of XLPE power cable has been improved up to now. The re-evaluation of design parameter for insulation thickness reductions is required and so we performed weibull plotting test using model cable. This paper describes the evaluation details of the insulation characteristics according to weibull plotting test.

In this work, temperature rise and eddy current distribution on the enclosure and conductor of 3 pole gas insulated switchgear were investigated using analytical and experimental measures. The design of the diameters of the conductors and the enclosures of a meal clad gas insulated switchgear is primarily based on the insulation requirements. It is very difficult problem to predict the temperature rise of enclosed switchgear due to the complexity of the phenomena of heat transfer and existence of eddy current loss. To overcome this situations, we focused on the eddy current distribution on the enclosure of switchgear caused by high current 3 pole conductor as a fundamental basis. The experimental results about temperature distribution of 3 pole gas insulated switchgear were reported and measurements are compared with predictions of three-dimensional thermal model for eddy current analysis. As a result, three dimensional numerical analysis found to be in close relationship with experimental results and thermal model is efficient to predict the abnormal temperature rise in switchgear.

After the measured data were trasformed A/D conversion by GPIB, we used the optimum method of threshold value for counting numbers of partial discharge.

Close to high power radio/radar transmitters, there is a possibility that electrical sparks may occur at discontinuities in metallic structures. If these structures are in an area where flammable mixtures are present, there is a danger that fire or explosion may happen by these sparks. Voltage may be induced on these metallic structures by the radio-frequency transmitter. In this case, a person who comes into contact with these structure may be undergone a severe electrical shock. In this paper, assessment of the these hazards was investigated through experimental and evaluation for actual tower cranes near AM radio transmitters.

From the results, it is concluded that potential detection system is very reliable and available to operate the switchgear safely.

In this paper, a new method for calculating capacitance in multi-electrode system with arbitrarily shape is presented. This new approach based on divergence theorem and Gauss's law is achieved by Surface-Contacted Element(SCE) for Gaussian surface. To evaluate capacitance in multi-electrode system, two dimensional finite element method using only the elements which is contacted one nod (PE: Point-Element) or two nod (FE: Face-Element) with surface is employed. The proposed SCE method has short computing time to calculate capacitance which is because it uses only SCE elements and needs one calculation loop while exiting FEM method in servral loops. This method is verified by application in calculating capacitance using potential detection device model which is composed with anode, cathode, and floating electrode.

On the other hand, it was confirmed that moisture absorption rate and DC dielectric breakdown strength degrading rate were lowered by the improvement of adhesion strength In IPN specimens.

The purpose of substation grounding system is to provide reference potential with power system and protect field workers from electrical shock resulted from unsymetrical power system faults. For this purpose, grounding grid should be designed to maintain max, touch voltage under safety criteria in fault conditions.

Two kinds of polymer insulators were dismounted from 5 fields. All polymer insulators showed the micro-cracks and the reduction of characteristic peaks on the shed surface. Contact angle was increased with time. Although some superficial changes have occurred, there are no significant changes in various properties. Comparison of dismounted insulators to new ones revealed that the field-aged insulators are reliable for the present.

The conventional SiC-type of lightning arresters in distribution systems has been replaced by ZnO-type because the ZnO-type has characteristics such as outstanding non linearity, high energy absorption capability, surge suppressing performance, and excellent response to abrupt wave. Out of the various types of lightning arrester failures, some which have been often reported could be prevented in advance. Therefore, the preventive countermeasures which can cope with the failures are strongly required.

For the 154 kV cable systems during 12 years from 1987 to 1998, total failure rate was 0.0057 [case/100C-km/year] and internal reason failure rate was 0.0020 [case/100C-km/Year], which is similar to those of foreign countries. Also, the many cases of internal reason failures occurred in the early stage after the operations due to incorrect installations. This implies that the installation process is very important and some diagnostic tests such as PD measurement are needed besides after laying test.

We propose that we use a porous-Si for a new spatial walk-off polarizing material with a large split angle. The beam-split an91e f is determined by the filling factor g(or porosity p) of the columnar dielectric substance and the slant angle $\theta$. Theoretically, by the assuming that $n_2$=3.5, and $n_1$=1 one can predict that a large split angle, up to $27^{\circ}$, is possible if one can construct such films with $Si.^{[3]}$ To accomplish this, we use porous-Si. As a result of theoretical simulation, the best structural parameters for attaining the maximum split angle $\phi$=$27.5^{\circ}$ are $\theta$=$58.7^{\circ}$ and p=57.6%.
