The goal of this paper is to develope the control program based on model which can be applied to 1000MW class coal fired thermal power plant. 1000MW class power plant has the higher efficiency and lower cost because the steam conditions of the ultra super-critical process are higher than them of the previous power plants in temperature and pressure. The program includes the state variable controls which have the desired characteristics for the higher temperature and pressure. The program had been developed successfully using advanced process control. The simulation results using the new control program showed the better performance and safer control than them of the previous control program and we could verify the application possibility of the new program for the actual power plant through the load test, comparison, analysis and tuning.

AC plasma power supply is used to control a ozone generator and a air pollution gas. AC plasma power supply is composed of power semiconductor switch devices and control board adapted SHE(Selected Harmonic Elimination) PWM method. AC plasma power supply with sinusoidal VVVF(variable voltage and variable frequency) is realized. Its output voltage range is from 0 [V] to 20[kV] and output frequency range is from 8[kHz] to 20[kHz]. Using proposed system, AC high voltage and high frequency discharge is tested in the DBD(dieletric barrier discharge) reactor, and the space distribution of a its non-thermal plasma is observed. In spite of the increasement of voltage and frequency, the proposed system have a stable operation characteristics. It is verified by the experimental results.

This paper is to report the results on the design and construction of a thermal plasma generator with high current DC source. Also, this paper presents the methods to stabilize plasma and to find effects of process variables on plasma characteristics. For this purpose, the reaction chamber, vacuum system, plasma generating torch, magnetic field generating coil with power supply, high current DC source and the other parts have been designed. Fundamental properties of the thermal plasma under various conditions have been measured and analyzed. Magnetic Reynolds Number has been introduced to explain the relationship between plasma and external magnetic field. Through this number, the effect of magnetic field on the plasma has been explained under various flow rates and pressure. A sudden increase in the plasma voltage has been observed with the increase of magnetic field. From this, fundamental changes in plasma flow are believed to occur at the nozzle, and an effort to explain the phenomenon has been tried.

A correct understanding of vibration-based degradation is crucial from the standpoint of maintenance for Steam Generators (SG) as crucial mechanical equipment in nuclear power plants. This study has established a novel approach to developing a model for investigating tube bundle degradation according to crack growth caused by two-phase Flow-Induced Vibration (FIV). An important step in the approach is to calculate the two-phase flow field parameters between the SG tube bundles in various zones using the porous media model to determine the velocity and vapor volume fraction. Afterward, to determine the vibration properties of the tube bundles, the Fluid-Solid Interaction (FSI) analysis is performed in eighteen thermal-hydraulic zones. Tube bundle degradation based on crack growth using the sixteen most probable initial cracks and within each SG thermal-hydraulic zone is performed to calculate useful lifetime. Large Eddy Simulation (LES) model, Paris law, and Wiener process model are considered to model the turbulent crossflow around the tube bundles, simulation of elliptical crack growth due to the vibration characteristics, and estimation of SG tube bundles degradation, respectively. The analysis shows that the tube deforms most noticeably in the zone with the highest velocity. As a result, cracks propagate more quickly in the tube with a higher height. In all simulations based on different initial crack sizes, it was observed that zone 16 experiences the greatest deformation and, subsequently, the fastest degradation, with a velocity and vapor volume fraction of 0.5 m/s and 0.4, respectively.

열전 발전기(TEG)는 일반적으로 열 변환 효율이 높지 않다. 열전 발전기 모듈의 성능은 재료의 특성, 다리의 개수 외에도 다리의 형상에 따라 달라진다. 본 연구에서는 폐열을 효율적으로 수확할 수 있도록 열전소자의 다리 형상을 원통형, 큐브형 등 다양한 기하학적 구조로 모델링하여 전기적 특성을 수치상으로 비교하였다. 다리 형상에 따른 온도분포 및 발전량을 비교하였고 기존 Cube 모양이 가장 높게 나타났다. 냉각효과를 적용한 발전량을 비교한 결과 자연대류에서는 Cone, 강제대류에서는 Hourglass 모양이 가장 높았다. 본 연구 결과에 따르면 기하학적 구조가 열전 발전기의 효율에 영향을 미칠 수 있음을 확인하였다

This paper presents an effective methodology of optimal environmental and economic operation using evolution strategy. In power systems, evolution strategy, based on natural selection and genetics, can analyze non-linear and discontinuous functions in global search techniques. The formulation using this search techniques is multi-objective function, which consists of fuel cost and environmental effects concerning the pollution of the Earth's atmosphere caused by the emission of $SO_2$ and $NO_x$ from thermal generator plants. The proposed algorithms are applied on system with 6 generator.

Excessive vibration magnitude results in serious damage and economic losses in the turbine and generator system. Therefore, it is of importance to evaluate the accurate dynamic characteristics of the system in advance. In this paper, rotordynamic characteristics of both the shrunk-fit disc and welded drum rotors have been investigated to ensure an excellent running behavior of the system in which low-pressure(LP) turbines of a nuclear power plant were retrofitted to improve thermal efficiency and reliability. Analysis shows that the welded drum rotor has good torsional characteristics rather than the shrunk-fit disc rotor. In addition, verification testing of field test was performed to confirm the retrofit. Test results are good agreement with analysis ones.
