There has been recent demand for extending the life of age-degraded structures and equipment by such techniques as diagnosis, maintenance, safety assessment, and estimating residual life on iron-making plants and hydraulic, thermal, and nuclear power plants. These techniques take into account comprehensive scenarios that may cause malfunction and structural damage and allow an assessment of risk based on the likely scenarios. In particular the safety assessment and residual life estimation of age-degraded ships and equipment facilities require consideration of various factors such as mechanical and thermal stresses, corrosion, hardness, load variation due to changes of operating condition, crack generation and strength reduction of material by fatigue. In this study, a detail thermal stress analysis, one of useful techniques of safety assessment and maintenance, is performed on a blast furnace by using general FEM code (MSC/NASTRAN).

Recently, the development of diagnosis technique with high confidence is important on power equipment, for this reason is use for measurement and analysis of PD with prior appearance of insulation breakdown. In this paper, we presents the analysis of trouble signal to use ${\phi}-Q$ method which display 2D and 3D Equipment of simulation has made independently DS for 170kV GIS of one phase with same on field. The detected signal through the sensor of Induction and Acoustic Emission is classified to use characteristic neural network algorithm and then it is analysis.

The method of maintenance in railway is going to be changed to improve reliability on traction equipment. Partial discharge (PD) tests are useful to evaluate the insulation condition of stator winding. This paper describes the use of PD tests with 5 model coils which have the defects such as internal, slot discharge. The PD tests are performed with epoxy-mica coupler 500 pF at various AC voltages. The result of test shows PD pattern can correlate with the species of defects on 5 model coils.

This paper presents an arificial neuro-fuzzy technique based prtial discharge (PD) pattern classifier to power system application. This may require a complicated analysis method employ -ing an experts system due to very complex progressing discharge form under exter-nal stress. After referring briefly to the developments of artificical neural network based PD measurements, the paper outlines how the introduction of new emerging technology has resulted in the design of a number of PD diagnostic systems for practical applicaton of residual lifetime prediction. The appropriate PD data base structure and selection of learning data size of PD pattern based on fractal dimentsional and 3-D PD-normalization, extraction of relevant characteristic fea-ture of PD recognition are discussed. Some practical aspects encountered with unknown stress in the neuro-fuzzy techniques based real time PD recognition are also addressed.

The conventional tracking testing as IEC-60587 is widely used in surface aging measurement of outdoor insulator because those testing can carry out very short time in Lab-testing. Also IEC-60587 testing is able to offer the standard judgement of relative degradation level of outdoor HV machine/system. Therefore it is very useful method compare to previous conventional tracking testing method and effective Lab-testing method. But surface discharges(SD) have very complex characteristics of discharge pattern so it is required estimation research to development of precise analysis method. In recent, the study of IRR-camera is carrying out discover of temperature of power equipment through condition diagnosis and system development of degradation diagnosis. In this study, SD occurred from procelain insulator, used 22.9[KV] distribution, is measured with partial temperature distribution in real time, the degradation grade of SD is analyzed through produced patterns in SD concentration according to applied time.

In these days there are many troubles - system data error, control malfunctions, cable overheating - in water treatment plant. Specially DAF(Dissolved Air Floation Process) plant has high frequency than previous water treatment process. DAF plant has diverse equipment, nonlinear loads for the precise control. But there is no sufficient overall study about harmonics condition of water treatment plant just taking a following partial action without a fundamental solution. On designing of power system, designer should have regard to harmonics condition, but there is no guide reflected harmonics condition on DAF plant This study says what is the result of guideless design about harmonics. With the result of diagnosis and analysis in DAF plant, economical efficiency and safety of plant will be upgraded in the next design.

Breakdown of solid insulating materials in power equipment could result in undesired outages and replacements, and may be due to an increase in electric stress on the material. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a proper diagnosis of materials before their practical use. In this work, a few inherent properties of different non-cellulosic insulating materials, such as Nomex, Teflon, laminated Nomex, glass bonded mica, epoxy resin bonded mica paper, and epoxy resin bonded fiberglass, have been evaluated by performing non-destructive dielectric diagnostic measurements, and an attempt has been made to correlate these basic parameters to evaluate the breakdown strength (BDS). An equation has been proposed using a basic theory which defines the correlation between the BDS, dielectric constant, dissipation factor, sample thickness, and volume resistivity. The results obtained from the equation are also compared with the experimental values. The suggested equation will be helpful to predict the BDS of any non-cellulosic material without experimentation in the laboratory.

Recently, ultrasound, infrared detector, V-I characteristic, gas analysis, UV (ultra-violet rays) camera etc. is used as inspections and diagnoses of the safety of power equipment. Especially, UV camera have attracted a great deal of interest from the view point of easy judgement. UV camera is used corona discharge. One of the most important and difficult problems to be solved filer design, materials and corona discharge. This paper is studied on the temperature characteristics, UV generation and shape analysis and corona pulse count according to the electrode distance and applied voltage. Also, Corona discharge characteristics in air are analyzed using prototype UV camera of Korea. UV generation due to surface discharge of AC is higher than that of DC.
