Liquid-immersed pole transformers have utilized an insulation system consisting of natural cellulose-based materials and mineral oil for many years. If the transformers are installed with the abruptly changing load over limitation, its insulation materials are apt to unexpected aging with high temperature. Therefore we have been conscious of developing a transformer that is more thermally stable then conventional types. To measure temperature distribution in the winding of conventional and newly designed transformers, temperature sensors were installed fordirect reading of oil and conductor temperatures at transformers. And we conducted accelerating aging test for these transformers. The measuring data had made use of the design to hybrid insulation system. Also we could find the possibility of this insulation system to apply in pole mounted transformers.

This paper presents a casca multilevel PWM rectifier without the isolation transformers for energy build-up at each inverter modules; The features and advantages of the proposed PWM rectifier can be summarized as follows; 1) It realizes the high power high voltage AC/DC power conversion, 2) It uses no transformer which is bulky and heavy, 3) It has hybrid structure so that switching devices can be effectively utilized, 4) It produces high quality AC current even in high power high voltage applications, 5) The input power factor remains unity by simple modulation index control. The multilevel rectifier is analyzed by using the circuit DQ transformation whereby the characteristics and control equations are obtained. Finally, it will be shown that the system simulation reveals the validity of analyses

In this paper, new buck converter of a TV power system is presented. First, we devised a revised driving circuit for an emitter-coupled type buck converter, by which it is possible to reduce the material cost of transformers and voltage stress of power device. Secondly, we adopted a hybrid oscillation technique. When TV system is in off-stage, initial standby power which is necessary for remote controllable TV system is supplied by self-oscillating mode. Main power which is necessry in TV system bing on state is provided by an externally triggered oscillating mode. The switching frequency is synchronized to the oscillating frequency of horizontal deflection in TV, by which we can reduce picture noises and the size of power transformer. Thirdly, a simple error amplifier is inserted to the feed-back loop to keep the output voltage constant which means pulse width modulatio mode is added in driving part of power device. Finally, we showed by experiments that our proposed converter performs well enough to be close to the theoretically predicted values.

Among the high distribution voltage consumers, high-capacity consumers are often applying the grounding resistance method in order to overcome demerits such as erroneous operation of the ground reply or potential increase in the battery at the accident of the isolated neutral system. In this paper, to prevent damage to CLR and GPT in the delay to block the breakdown in the resistance grounded neutral system, this study aims to provide a proper suggestion for continuous rating capacity of GPT to check the appropriateness of CLR size and reduce GPT burden. Thereupon, this study comparatively analyzes CLR current applied in general GPT and the current gained when CLR demanded in the system is used and analyzes the simulated system through simulation using PSCAD/EMTDC in order to suggest GPT's proper continuous rating capacity.

A new three-level resonant converter suitable for wide input variation is proposed. A hybrid combination of a three-level converter controlled by phase-shift modulation and a half-bridge converter is presented. Since the voltage of each switch is one half of the input voltage, it has advantages of the choice and characteristics of switches. The ZVS operation of the converter is achieved by using the magnetizing current of the transformer. To verify the theoretical analysis, experimental results of the proposed converter are presented.

In this paper, a charge equalization converter with parallel-connected primary windings of transformers is proposed. The proposed work effectively balances the voltage among Lithium-Ion battery cells despite each battery cell has low voltage gap compared with its state of charge (SOC). The principle of the proposed work is that the equalizing energy from all battery strings moves to the lowest voltage battery through the isolated dc/dc converter controlled by the corresponding solid state relay switch. For this research a prototype of four Lithium-Ion battery cells is optimally designed and implemented, and experimental results show that the proposed method has excellent cell balancing performance.

This paper proposes a stand alone type single-phase fuel cells micro-source with a voltage sag compensator for compensating the ac output voltage variations (sag or swell) of micro-source. The proposed micro-source is consist of a PEM(polymer electrolyte membrane) fuel cells simulator, a full bridge de converter, a 60Hz PWM(pulse width modulation) VSI(voltage source inverter), and a voltage sag compensator. Voltage sag compensator is similar to the configuration of hybrid series active power filter, and it is directly connected to micro-source through the injection transformer. Compensation algorithm of a voltage sag compensator adopts a single phase p-q theory. Effectiveness of the proposed the system is verified by the PSIM(power electronics simulation tool) simulation in the steady state and transient state which the proposed system is able to simultaneously compensate the harmonic current and source voltage sag or swell.

Two non-conventional HVDC converter arrangements are compared. These include the Capacitor Commutated Converter (CCC) in which series capacitors are included between the converter transformer and the valves, and the Controller Series Capacitor Converter (CSCC), based on more conventional topology, in which series capacitors are inserted between the AC filter bus and the AC network. Results show that both options have comparable steady state and transient performance. Danger of ferroresonance with the CSCC option is eliminated by controlling the amount of series compensation. The dynamic performance simulations is peformed by PSCAD/EMTDC
