  • In the past time, the protection relay did only a protection function. Currently, its upgraded device i.e. IED(Intelligent Electric Device) has been designed to protect, control, and monitor the whole power system automatically. Also the device is desired to successfully measure important elements of the power system. This paper considers design method of a digital protection IED with a function of measuring various elements and a communication function. The protection IED is composed of the specific function modules that are signal process module, communication module, input/output module and main control module. A signal process module use a DSP processor for analysis of input signal. Main control module use a embedded processor, Xscale, that has an ARM Core. The communication protocol uses IEC61850 protocol that becomes standard in the future. The protection IED is able to process mass information with high-performance processor. As each function module is designed individually, the reliability of the device can be enhanced.

  • Distance relay is the most widely used in transmission line protection because it is applicable not only as main protection but also as back-up protection. However, the protection range of the distance relay is always fixed in the unchangeable operating range while the power system varies, and therefore the distance relay is the device that is the highly influenced by the power system changes. In this regard, this paper describes an approach to minimize the mal-operation of the distance relay due to the power system changes through changing protection range of the distance relay into optimal condition in response to the load variation and power system condition. Also mal-function of the distance repay in case of high resistance ground faults could be minimized through modeling the protection range into quadratic function.

  • Generator faults does not happen more often than the transmission and substation facility faults. However, impacts on the power system by generator faults are very large. In order to minimize the impact of generator faults, generator protection and control system with high reliability is required. Most of the generator relay in generator protection and control system of large power plant of Korea is operated by imports from abroad. Accordingly, in order to accumulate source technology and increase the import substitution effect, localization of multi-function generator protection IED is being developed. This paper deals with the implementation of a multi-function prototype IED H/W, which can be command and data exchange through communication for measuring, monitoring, protection and control. And the IED specification, various relay elements, measurement elements, communication functions, module function, and test system for the prototype IED H/W are described.

  • The purpose of this study is to identify consumers' needs and purchase intention of high-functional sportswear according to sports participation motivations. Internet survey was done for data collection and the subjects were 300 consumers in their 20-39's who participated in sport activities at least once a week. Factors of sport participation motivations were ostentation, social interaction, self development, mental health, and physical health. Consumers were segmented into the motivation retard group, the multi-purpose pursuit group, the health pursuit group, and the extrinsic motivation pursuit group. And factors of consumers' needs for high-functional sportswear were practicality and comfort function, body protection and physical function, and skin protection and health function. The multi-purpose pursuit group showed strong needs for active and comfort, body protection and physical function, and skin protection and health function but the motivation retard group showed the lowest needs for high functional sportswear. Purchase experiences of high-functional sportswear, accomplishment, and duration period of sport activity affected positively on the purchase intention of high-functional sportswear.

  • This paper introduces the main function and protection method of IGBT gate driver that designed by KOROS. Recently, the applications of insulated gate bipolar transistors(IGBTs) have expanded widely, particularly in the area of railway converters. This driver is suitable for railway traction applications, so they are designed for circumstance of railway vehicle such as vibration. The input control power for this driver is supplied from battery charger of railway. it is no necessary an isolated power supply board or auxiliary power supply, with substantial savings in cost and space in railway applications. This gate driver can be used wide range of input voltage. So, performance of the driver has no relation with the battery voltage(70V∼110V). The protection methods of IGBT gate driver have many kind of ways, but this gate driver it designed to apply to converter for railway system, so this gate driver includes protection for arm short current and low control power voltage, etc. And the process of protection method and protection reference value are optimized by means of sufficient test with our own facilities.

  • Even though many modular converters have several internal protection circuit blocks for various abnormal operation conditions, there are many failure cases on modular converters at real applications. In this paper, the control strategy for failure protection of converters with internal 'In-Hibit' function is investigated. As an example, for the MDl modular converters the in-hibit function application is realized and the test results shows that adopting in-hibit function while converter switching reduces the voltage and current stress. And the reduction of switching stress on converter will decrease failure rate on converters.
