Designing and constructing a proper simulator for real power plants requires extensive research in human engineering and computer science and integration of different fields of technologies such as system analysis, operational knowledge for nuclear plant, etc. A full scope replica type simulator for nuclear power plant is developed. The simulator has the same feature and operational functions as one in the main control room (MCR) of a reference power plant. The simulator provides the necessary training to recover or reduce damages from accidents that usually are unpredictable. This paper describes the configurations and characteristics for the simulator that is developed for Younggwang Nuclear Power Plant #3,4 which is the basic model of the Korean Nuclear Power Plant. The paper also describes technical aspects of Auto Code Generator that is used for developing the simulator. The successful development of the simulator will contribute to improve safety in operation of nuclear power plants.

W e have developed a power line simulator which is one of the basic tools for the research of the power line communication and its control system. In the developed simulators, we have considered the transfer function of the power line, noises and signal attenuation characteristics. Simulator was made using the matlab tool program. We made the power line modem using the FSK chip(ST7537) and experimentalized to show the efficiency grade of simulator. We have expected that the developed simulators are very useful in the area for the power line communication research and the control system design.

본 논문에서는 CEMTool환경에서 수행된는 일반적 형태 분산 시뮬레이터의 구조를 제안한다. 먼저, 분산시뮬레이션을 할 수 있도록 SIMTool에서 전체 시스템을 패럴랠블록의 형식으로 여러개의 서브시스템으로 분할한다. 그런후에 CEMTool환경에서 분할된 시스템에 대하여 초기화, one step ahead 시뮬레이션, distribute와 ordering의 과정을 진행한 후 각각의 서브시스템에 대하여 독립적인 C code과 실행파일을 생성한다. 여러 대의 PC에서는 분할된 각각의 서브시스템을 독자적으로 실행시키는 동시에 서로간에 reflective memory를 통해 데이터를 주고반는다. 본 논문의 실험대상인 냉간압연 시스템은 각각의 서브시스템 내부의 계산량이 통신량보다 훨씬 많기 때문에 분산처리를 하기에 아주 적합하며, 본 논문에서는 냉간압연 시스템에 대한 분산시뮬레이션의 결과를 분석하고 제시된 방법으로 확실한 속도향상의 결과를 보여준다는 것을 설명하고자 한다.

KEPCO Research Center is carrying out a simulator(full scope replica type) development project for two nuclear power plants(Kori-2, Younggwang-3,4) and one fossil power plant(Poryong-3,4). In this project, we aim not only the installation of high performance simulators at the power plant sites but also the realization of self reliance of power plant simulation technology in Korea. In the course of preparing procurement specification for the 3 simulators, the present status of power plant simulation technology has been surveyed and is presented in this paper. The fidelity of simulation and the automation of simulation model production has been greatly improved due to the ever increasing computing power of today's workstations. The need and importance of the application of high fidelity simulators to the operator training is refocused since the accident at TMI Nuclear Power Plant, U.S.A.

This article suggests an inverse kinematics analysis of a two degree of freedom spatial parallel motion simulator and design methodology of the robust PID controller. The parallel motion simulator consists of a fixed base and a moving frame connected by two serial chains, with each serial chain containing one revolute joint and two passive spherical joint. First, an inverse kinematics problems are solved in order to find the joint variable necessary to bring the end effector to track the desired trajectory. Second, an inverse optimal PID controller is proposed to track trajectories in the face of uncertainty. And the $H_{\infty}$ optimality and robust stability of the closed-loop system is acquired through the PID controller. Finally numerical results show the effectiveness of the PID controller that is designed by square/linear tuning laws.

As the circumstance of the traditional system is changed according to power system deregulation, the simulation tool which should reflect market code providing market operating mechanism is needed to analyze an electricity market. This paper presents the development of Electricity Market Price Simulator for short term(EMPS) that is designed to imitate the Korean electricity market. The EMPS is developed in VB.NET and is composed if three functions that consist of calculating SMP for CBP market, MCP for TWBF market and LMP for LMP-market. To evidence the features and the performance of EMPS, a small two way bidding market with 12-bus system, one way bidding market for generator competition and LMP market with 5-bus system will be presented for the electricity market simulations using EMPS.

In this study applied the general controller into th 16bit ordinary controller and recommand the simulator features the real system's propeties without DSP(Digital Signal Processing)-card. This simulator is designed to be synchronized in real time using A/D(Analog-Digital) convert and D/A(Digital-Analong) convert. In this study DSP card which is usually used for complex calculation is replaced with personal computer and designed to control, control-force using with the 16-bit micro processor.

Hybrid simulation may employ different types of simulation based on which models in different system types are developed. The simulation requires simulation time synchronization and data exchange between such simulators, which is called simulators interoperation. This paper develops such interoperable simulation environments for modeling and simulation of hybrid systems whose components consist of continuous and discrete event systems. The environments, one for centerized and the other for distribute, support interoperation between a discrete event simulator of DEVSim++ and a continuous simulator of MATLAB. The centerized environment, HDEVSim++, is developed by extending the sxisting DEVSim++ environment; the distributed environment, HDEVSimHLA, is developed using the HLA/RTl library. Verification of both environments is made and performance comparison between the two using a simple example is presented. .

The competition between companies for prior occupation of the market is becoming fierce. In this highly competitive situation, it is important for companies to differentiate themselves if they are going to have a chance at success. And the competition to create the best solution method possible is higher than ever. Increased competition is forcing companies to lower costs and improve efficiency. A supply chain management(SCM) has become one of the most important solution methods of competitive advantage. This study has developed a simulator for the supply chain network problem. The simulator is designed to simulate the conditions of an actual supply chain network considering uncertainties. The simulator developed using commercial simulation tool ARENA and the results of computational experiments for a simple example were given and discussed to validate the developed simulator. Further research is needed, but using the simulator could become a useful tool for decision making in the supply chain network area.

This paper develops ABS braking real - time simulator to develop vehicle braking system by simulation. Recently, real-time simulation is widely used in the development of vehicles to decrease development time. In the field of electronic braking, real-time simulation is actively underway. In order to simulate electronic braking model in real time, a vehicle model, a hydraulic model, and a control S/W model are required. These models must be calculated in one platform. Therefore, in this paper, a vehicle model composed of CarSim and a hydraulic model composed of SimulationX using S/W in actual ABS controller was developed as a Simulink model base and linked with Matlab real time model. Using this real-time model, design effects of the electronic braking controller were simulated according to road surface condition to verify its operability.
