With the proliferation of nonlinear loads such as lighting facilities in all modern society high neutral harmonic currents have been observed. High neutral currents in three- phase four-wire distribution systems can cause lots of harmonic problems. The most common solution of neutral harmonic currents reduction is a zero phase sequence filter using zig-zag transformer. This paper analyzes a commercially available neutral line zero sequence currents reduction device and applies the equipment to lighting loads for eliminating harmonics. Experimental results are compared numerically and graphically with simulation results through the use of MATLAB.

With the proliferation of nonlinear loads such as switching mode power supplies, high neurtral harmonic currents in three-phase four-wire distribution system have been observed. It has been known that the grounded impedance has an effect on the neutral current of a system which operates with harmonics present since the neutral conductor is grounded. On-site measurements of harmonic currents and voltages were made and the corresponding equivalent circuit was developed. The circuit model under study was simulated numerically and graphically through the use of the software MATLAB. Simulation results verifying the relationship between the neutral harmonic current and ground impedance are presented.

With the proliferation of nonlinear loads such as personal computer in an educational building, high neutral harmonic currents have been observed. High neutral currents in three-phase four ire distribution power systems can cause tots of harmonic problems such as overloaded neutral conductors and malfunction of protective equipment. On-site measurements of harmonic currents and voltages were made and the corresponding equivalent circuits was developed. The circuit model under study was simulated numerically and graphically through the use of the software MATLAB. Simulation results verifying the effect of a single-tuned passive filter for the neutral harmonic current reduction are presented.

High speed electric trains have time-varying nonlinear loads causing voltage fluctuations to the power system. A cumulative probablistic approach is the most commonly used method to solve time varying loads. Flicker can be defined as the effect produced on the human visual perception by a changing emission of light lamps subjected to magnitude fluctuations of their supply voltage. This paper provides an in depth analysis on harmonics and flickers measurement of the high speed electric train loads. And the measurement results are evaluated by the IEC 61000-3-6 and IEC 61000-3-7.

The neutral current is made of both the load unbalanced current and the 3rd harmonic. The 3rd harmonic which is the source of the main neutral current is generated from the loads using bridge rectifier circuits on their input produce currents. TV, computer and monitor which are belong to IEC 61000-3-2 Class D are the main 3rd harmonic current sources. In order to show the affect of the distribution system by these disturbances, this paper has studied the current standards of the Korea Electric and considers the problem of the neutral common.

This paper proposes an indirect adaptive fuzzy controller for general SISO nonlinear systems. In indirect adaptive fuzzy control, based on the proved approximation capability of fuzzy systems, they are used to capture the unknown nonlinearities of the plant. Until now, most of the papers in the field of controller design for nonlinear system considers the affine system using fuzzy systems which have fixed grid-rule structure. We proposes a dynamic fuzzy rule insertion scheme where fuzzy rule-base grows as time goes on. With this method, the dynamic order of the controller reduces dramatically and an appropriate number of fuzzy rules are found on-line. No a priori information on bounding constants of uncertainties including reconstruction errors and optimal fuzzy parameters is needed. The control law and the update laws for fuzzy rule structure and estimates of fuzzy parameters and bounding constants are determined so that the Lyapunov stability of the whole closed-loop system is guaranteed.

This study suggested a method for prediction of residual chlorine and THMs in water distribution system by measurement of residual chlorine, THMs, and other parameters, estimation of chlorine decay coefficients and THM formation coefficients, and simulation of water qualities using pipe network analysis. Bulk decay coefficients of parallel first-order were obtained by bottle tests, and pipe wall decay coefficients of first-order were estimated through evaluation of 5 models, which showed the lowest values of 0.03 for MAE(mean absolute error) and 0.037 MAE in comparison with the observed in field. And bottle tests were conducted to model first-order reaction of THM formation by nonlinear least square regression and the resultant coefficients were compared with the observed in field. As a result, the coefficients of determination$(R^2)$ for the observed and the predicted values were 0.98 in September and 0.82 in November, and the formation of THMs was predicted by modeling.

This paper proposes a new dead time compensation method for a PWM inverter. Recently, PWM inverters are extensively used for industry applications, such as ac motor drives, distributed grid-connected systems and a static synchronous compensator (STATCOM). Nonlinear characteristics of the switch and the inverter dead time cause a current distortion and deterioration of power quality. The dominant harmonics in the output current are the $5^{th}$ and $7^{th}$ harmonics in the stationary frame, and the $6^{th}$ harmonics in the synchronous rotating frame. In this paper, a resonant controller which compensates the $6^{th}$ harmonics in the synchronous rotating frame is proposed. This method does not require any off-line experimental measurements, additional hardware and complicated mathematical computations. Furthermore, the proposed method is easy to implement and does not cause any stability problem.

This experiment was conducted to characterize the inheritance of petal color, flower-eye color, flower shape, leaf variegation pattern, and leaf-end shape in Cyclamen persicum. The segregation of $F_2$ and backcross populations from crosses between inbred lines was tested for Mendelian inheritance mode. From four different combinations of crosses, it was found that the petal color was controlled by a single incomplete dominant gene. The other characters, flower-eye color, flower shape, leaf variegation pattern and leaf-end shape were confirmed to be controlled by single complete dominant genes.

In thermal power plants, boiler models have been used widely in evaluating logic configurations, performing system tuning and applying control theory, etc. Furthermore, proper plant models are needed to design the accurate controllers. Sometimes, mathematical models can not exactly describe a power plant due to time varying, nonlinearity, uncertainties and complexity of the thermal power plants. In this case, a neural network can be a useful method to estimate such systems. In this paper, the models of boiler steam system in a thermal power plant are developed by using a generalized regression neural network(GRNN). The models of the superheater, reheater, attemperator and drum are designed by using GRNN and the models are trained and validate with the real data obtained in 540[MW] power plant. The validation results showed that proposed models agree with actual outputs of the drum boiler well.
