  • With the development of industry and the improvement of living standards, better quality in power electric service is required more than ever before. Under these circumstances, to deliver reasonable voltage regulation methods in distribution systems need to be developed. So, This paper deals with optimal introduction of the line voltage regulator (SVR : Step Voltage Regulator) in power distribution systems. First, This paper investigates characteristics of SVR and performs economic evaluation of SVR's introduction by using Present Worth Method. This paper, also suggests proper location and optimal voltage regulation algorithm. In order to deliver suitable voltages to as many customers as possible, the optimal sending voltage of SVR should be decided by the effective operation of voltage regulators at the distribution feeders. The simulation results using a model distribution system and real distribution systems show that the proposed methods can be a practical tool for the voltage regulation in distribution systems.

  • The objective of the present study lies in constructing web-based GIS system providing broad range of information applicable for power/telecommunications distribution facilities through cable. Nowadays, Korea is renowned forits faste sttele communications network across the nation enjoyable for being a test-runbed by worldwide contents providers. It is not too much to say that the trend is caused by the fact that Korea utilizes the cobweb-like power transmission cables applicable for the nationwide telecommunications networking. In particular, the trend has been all the more encouraged by the governmental drive to expedite the telecommunication network by way of the established power transmission facilities deemed as publicutility. Nevertheless, few can deny that the overexcessive competition among telecommunication service providers increasingly gives rise to unauthorized, arbitrary facilitation of distribution devices, which becomes much burden in operating the normal power/telecommunications distribution facilities by a power-generating company. In this regard, the study, to cope with such problems, attempts to develop a web GIS-based information management system compatible with NDIS(New Distribution Information System), a distribution facility management system now under operation by KEPCO, making advantage of GE Energy's SIAS(Smallworld Internet Application) technology. The model provided by this study is expected to get closer into effective operation of distribution facilities along with better sharing of information among conventional telecommunications operators, while getting rid of infringed facilitation cases

  • The purpose of this study is to examine the accuracy of the code provisions on lateral load distribution factors of prestressed concrete girder bridges. Most designers in Korea use the lever method or lateral load distribution formula in the existing design codes. However, the methods do not account for the effect of bridge skew or direction of diaphragm. Therefore, this study analysed the prestressed concrete girder bridge with grillage model for various girder spacings, directions of diaphragms, span lengths, and skews, and compared the results with those of existing design code. It has been found that lateral load distribution factors were proportional to the girder spacing while they were not significantly affected by the change of span length, direction of diaphragm, and skew. For bending moments, lateral load distribution factors from the grillage analysis were 60%~68% of those from Korean bridge design code. Therefore, the code provisions result in very conservative design. For support reactions, however, lateral load distribution factors from the grillage analysis were slightly greater than those from Korean bridge design code. Therefore, the capacity of bearings of the bridge with a large skew should be determined by grillage analysis.

  • Purpose: This study examines the economic and technical reasons for the uneven distribution of broadband internet services in Indonesia before and during the recession due to the C19 pandemic, and examines its effect on the country's economy. Research design, data and methodology: The research was designed by conducting an economic feasibility, which was verified through area observations and interviews with providers and their association, as well as the Regulator. Results: The results show that during the C19 pandemic, there has been an increase in the distribution of broadband internet services in Indonesia since there has been an increase in demand for cellular services and fixed services together. However, the increase in broadband internet service coverage is still not evenly distributed in the country and unable to boost the decline in Gross Domestic Product during the C19 pandemic. Conclusions: The increase in fixed broadband coverage by seventy percent is an indication for the state to make policies to encourage bundling techniques between operators with the aim of internet services being more evenly distributed throughout the country. Where, the influence of a more even distribution of broadband internet services in all countries is believed to be able to support the country's economy.
