Power uprate is the process of increasing the maximum power level at which a commercial nuclear power plant may operate. Power uprate applications(113 units) for NPPs(Nuclear Power Plants) were recently approved in the United States. Utilities have been using power uprates since the 1970s as a way of increasing the power output of their nuclear plants. To increase the power output of a reactor, typically more highly enriched uranium fuel and/or more fresh fuel is used. This enables the reactor to produce more thermal energy and therefore more steam, driving a turbine generator to produce electricity. In this paper, the propriety of power uprate is explained through the review on the power uprate method and the changes of the physical parameters due to power uprate. The analysis results showed that the CDF(Core Damage Frequency) and LERF(Large Early Release Frequency) are affected in the current probabilistic safety assessment (PSA) model.

This paper presents a new method of local voltage control to achieve coordinative control among UPFC(Unified Power Flow Controller) and conventional reactive compensation equipments, such as switched-shunt and ULTC(Under-Load Tap Changing) transformer. Reactive power control has various difficult aspects to control because of difficulty of system analysis. Recently, the progress of power electronics technologies has lead to commercial availability of several FACTS(Flexible AC Transmission System) devices. The UPFC(Unified Power Flow Controller) simultaneously allows the independent control of active and reactive power flows as well as control of the voltage profile. When conventional reactive power sources and UPFC are used to control system voltage, the UPFC reacts to the voltage deviation faster than the conventional reactive power sources. Keeping reactive power reserve in an UPFC during steady-state operation is always needed to provide reactive power requirements during emergencies. Therefore, coordination control among UPFC and conventional reactive power sources is needed. This paper describe the method to keep or control the voltage of power system of local area and to manege reactive power reserve using PSS/E with Python. The result of simulation shows that the proposed method can control the local bus voltage within the given voltage limit and manege reactive power reserve.

In order to improve energy efficiency and solve power disturbances, power components measurement for both the supply and demand side of a power system must be implemented before appropriate action on the power problems can be taken. This paper presents a DSP (Digital Signal Processor)-based multi-channel (voltage 8-channel and current 10-channel) power measurement system that can simultaneously measure and analyze power components for both supply and demand. Voltage 8-channel and current 10-channel measurement is made through voltage and current sensors connected to the developed system, and power components such as reactive power, power factor and harmonics are calculated and measured by the DSP. The measured data are stored in a personal computer (PC) and a commercial program is then used for measurement data analysis and display. After voltage and current measurement accuracy revision using YOKOGAWA 2558, the developed system was tested using a programmable ac power source. The test results showed the accuracy of the developed system to be about 0.3 percent. Also, a simultaneous measurement field test of the developed system was implemented by application to the supply and demand side of the three-phase power system.

There are many power system simulation software tools for time-domain performance in power system. This paper reports the results of time-domain simulation for the Jeju Power system with a secondary voltage regulation (SVR) model, developed with both TSAT and PSCAD/EMTDC and evaluates them, which are commercial software tools used for digital simulation of power system. TSAT has not been yet verified because of deficient modelling of components in the time domain performance of KEPCO power system. But PSCAD/EMTDC has been enough verified in our system. So, we need to compare and evaluate TSAT with PSCAD/EMTDC in small power system like Jeju. This paper showed that the results simulated by both TSAT and PSCAD/EMTDC is very similar to each other, so TSAT is able to apply for our KEPCO large power system.

극초소형 위성으로 분류되는 큐브위성의 경우, 표준화된 위성의 크기로 인하여 위성의 전력생성을 목적으로 하는 태양전지판 장착을 위한 공간이 극히 제한적이며, 자세제어 적용 방식에 따라서는 태양전지판에 입사되는 태양광의 각도가 변화하고 이는 태양전지의 전력생성 양을 결정하는 주요 요인으로 작용한다. 본 논문에서는 극초소형 위성 적용을 목적으로 태양광과 태양전지판이 이루는 각도가 $0^{\circ}$인 조건에서도 태양전지판 외곽에 배치된 렌즈어레이를 통해 태양광을 효율적으로 조사하여 전력생성 효율 향상이 가능한 우주용 집광형 태양전력 시스템을 제안하였으며, 극초소형 위성으로의 적용 가능성 검토를 위해 상용 렌즈어레이를 적용한 기능시험을 통해 유효성을 입증하였다.

본 논문에서는 미국내의 상용 PCS 서비스 대역인 $1.9GHz(1.93{\sim}1.99GHz)$대역에서 사용 가능한 선형 전력 증폭기를 설계 및 제작하였다. 실제로 제작한 선형 전력 증폭기는 출력이 25W이고 Feedforward선형화 기법을 사용하여 FCC가 규정한 혼변조 왜곡 특성을 만족하도록 하였다. 선형 전력 증폭기의 출력별로 측정한 결과 1W(30dBm)에서 25W(44dBm)까지 14dB의 측정구간에서 선형화에 의한 혼변조 왜곡은 최저 10.51dBc부터 최고 19.01dBc까지 개선되었고, 최종 출력에서의 IMD 레벨은 최저 64.84dBc에서 최고 68.17dBc로 각각 나타났다. 이러한 특성은 PCS 기지국의 상용제품으로 충분히 사용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

이 논문은 파워 잡음 특성이 칩(chip)의 코아 동작에 따라 DDR DRAM용 모듈(Module)과 패키지(package)의 종류의 영향을 받는 다는 것을 보여주고 있다. 이를 분석하기 위해 상용 TSOP-based DIMM 과 FBGA-based DIMM에서 FBGA와 TSOP 패키지형 DRAM 칩을 가지고 임피던스 모양과 파워 잡음을 분석하였다. 일반적인 상식과 달리, FBGA 패키지의 잡음 격리 특성이 TSOP 패키지의 잡음 격리 특성보다 전달되는 잡음에 더 약하고 민감하다는 것이 발견되었다. 또한 자체 및 전달 잡음 특성을 조절하는데 있어서는 모듈상의 디커풀링 커패시터(decoupling capacitors)들 위치가 패키지 자체의 리드선 인덕턴스(lead inductance)보다 더 중요하다는 것을 또한 시뮬레이션 결과들은 보여준다. 따라서 잡음 억제나 잡음 전달로부터 격리의 목표설정 값을 만족시키는 것은 패키지 형태 뿐 아니라 모듈 전체를 고려한 파워 분배 시스템의 설계를 통해서만 얻어질수 있다.

본 연구의 목적은 영화 흥행 성과 예측 모형을 예술 영화와 상업 영화 각각에 적용하여 영화 유형별 상이한 예측 요인을 비교 분석하는 것이다. 이에 따라 예술 영화와 상업 영화 각각에 대해 영화 흥행 성과 예측 모형을 적용한 결과, 두 회귀식은 구조적으로 다른 것으로 검증되었다. 보다 구체적으로, 두 회귀식의 회귀계수의 차이를 살펴본 결과, 스크린수, 관객 평가, 장르는 예술 영화와 상업 영화 모두에 영향을 미치는 흥행요인으로 나타났다. 그러나 감독 명성, 상영등급, 전문가 평가, 배급사 영향력, 영화 제작국, 그리고 개봉 시기는 예술 영화의 흥행 성과에 대해서만 유의한 예측 변수로 검증되었다.

Rheological behavior of commercial hot pepper-soybean paste (HPSP) was evaluated in small amplitude oscillatory and steady shear tests. Storage modulus (G'), loss modulus (G"), and complex viscosity (${\eta}^*$) as a function of angular frequency (${\omega}$), and shear stress (${\sigma}$) as a function of shear rate (${\gamma}$) data were obtained for 5 commercial HPSP samples. HPSP samples at $25^{\circ}C$ exhibited a non-Newtonian, shear-thinning flow behavior with high yield stresses and their flow behaviors were described by power law, Casson, and Herschel-Bulkley models. Time-dependent flow properties were also described by the Weltman, Hahn, and Figoni & Shoemaker models. Apparent viscosity over the temperature range of $5-35^{\circ}C$ obeyed the Arrhenius temperature relationship with activation energies (Ea) ranging 18.3-20.1 kJ/mol. Magnitudes of G' and G" increased with an increase in ${\omega}$, while ${\eta}^*$ decreased. G' values were higher than G" over the most of the frequency range (0.63-63 rad/sec), showing that they were frequency dependent. Steady shear viscosity and complex viscosity of the commercial HPSP did not fit the Cox-Merz rule.

We reported on characteristics of the fluorescent OLED fabricated on commercial ITO/glass and BCS grown IZO/glass substrate, respectively. The amorphous IZO anode film grown by box cathode sputtering(BCS) exhibited similar electrical and optical characteristics to commercial ITO anode even though it was deposited at room temperature. In addition, the amorphous IZO anode showed higher workfunction (5.2 eV) than that of the commercial ITO anode (5.0 eV) after ozone treatment for 10 min. Furthermore, fluorescent OLED fabricated on amorphous IZO anode film showed improved current-voltage-luminance characteristics, external quantum efficiency and power efficiency en contrast with fluorescent OLED fabricated on commercial ITO anode film. It was thought that smooth surface and high workfunction of amorphous IZO anode lead to more efficient hole injection by reduction of interface barrier height between anode and organic layers.
