Protection issues in distribution systems which are to be operated in open and closed-loop modes in a smart grid are studied and a generalized protection setting method is proposed to meet the new requirements. The developed setting method assumes a conventional over-current protection scheme for the system with reclosers and over-current relays. In a closed-loop mode, it identifies protective devices that have to be sacrificed in order to maximize protection coordination for bidirectional fault current flow. The proposed setting method has been tested on many systems with different complexity and is proved effective.

A novel high precision spatial positioning method utilizing the electromagnetic momentum, i.e., Electromagnetic Momentum Positioning (EMP), is proposed in this paper. By measuring the momentum of the electromagnetic field around the small current loop, the relative position between the sensor and the current loop is calculated. This method is particularly suitable for the application of close-range and high-precision positioning, e.g., data gloves and medical devices in personal healthcare, etc. The simulation results show that EMP method can give a high accuracy with the positioning error less than 1 mm, which is better than the traditional magnetic positioning devices with the error greater than 1 cm. This method lays the foundation for the application of data gloves to meet the accurate positioning requirement, such as the high precision interaction in Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR) and personal wearable devices network.

Lately, the demand for electrical power has been significantly increased. As a result a power transmission system has been improved. On the other hand fault current increased more than past. Superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) is one of the solutions to limit fault current. However, SFCL's research has not advanced in a power transmission system fully. Therefore, we studied effect of SFCL in a power transmission system. The power distribution system is open-loop circuit, but a power transmission system is closed-loop system. Consequently, Fault current in a power transmission system is larger than fault current in a power distribution system. we exerimented a simple closed-loop power transmission system circuit.

This study proposes a triple-loop current control method for the auxiliary power unit of fuel cell trains. The auxiliary power unit of fuel cell trains has a grid-connected function when power is supplied to the utility grid. Moreover, the auxiliary power unit of trains has a 1500 V DC link voltage; thus, PWM frequency cannot be increased to a high frequency. Owing to this low PWM frequency condition, creating a triple-loop design is difficult. In this study, a triple-loop controller is developed for a capacitor voltage controller in standalone mode that operates as an auxiliary power supply for trains and for a grid current controller in grid control mode with an inner capacitor voltage controller. The voltage controller employs an inductor current controller inner loop. To overcome low PWM frequency, a design method for the bandwidth of the capacitor voltage controller considering the bandwidth of the inner inductor current controller is described. The effectiveness of the proposed method is proven using PSIM simulation.

본논문에서는 운동매질내에서 크기가 파장과 동등정도이거나 그 이상인 circular loop antenna의 방사특성을 전류분포가 정현파적인 경우에 대하여 고찰하였다. 고찰결과로는 방사특성이 매질속도의 영향을 받는다는 사실과 그 영향으로는 정지매질의 radiation pattern 과 비교하여 방사지향성이 loop antenna면에 평행인 매질속도성분에만 영향을 받고 수직성분속도에는 무관하며 radiation pattern의 최대지향성은 loop면에 평행인 속도성분방향으로 이동하고 이와 반대방향으로는 Pattern의 크기가 증가하게 된다. 또 이와 같은 운동매질의 영향은 매질속도도가 오고 전류주파수가 높을수록 antenna의 직경이 클수록 더욱 현저하게 된다는 사실을 알게 되었다.

PWM 인버터의 출력전압을 제어하는 방식에는 2가지 제어기법이 있다. 첫 번째 방법은 전류제어기를 사용하여 출력전압을 제어하는 이중 제어루프를 갖는 제어방식이며, 두 번째 방법은 단일루프만으로서 출력전압을 제어하는 제어방식이다. 일반적으로 3상 PWM 인버터의 제어기는 각상 제어 PI제어기, 2상 정지좌표계 PI제어기, 동기 좌표계 PI제어기로 구성되며, 각상제어 PI제어기를 이용하여 3상의 독립된 출력측 전압 및 전류를 제어하도록 구성된다. 단일루프 전압제어기는 높은 출력 임피던스의 경우 이중제어루프 도다 더 낮은 성능을 나타내기만, 낮은 출력임피던스의 경우에는 또는 부하범위에서 좋은 제어성능을 나타낸다. 또한 시뮬레이션과 실험을 통하여 이를 검증하였다.

초전도전류제한기(SFCL)는 전력계통내 적용시 계통보호를 보다 향상시킬 수 있는 방안으로써 수초이내에 신속하게 사고전류를 제한한다. 이러한 SFCL중 자속구속형 전류제한기의 설계구조는 자속구속리액터인 하나의 철심에 1차측과 2차측 코일이 병렬로 결선되어 있다. 또한 전류제한소자인 YBCO박막과 2차측 코일을 직렬로 결선하여 설치장소의 조건에 따라 인덕턴스와 2차측 코일의 극성방향으로 과도전류 크기를 조절할 수 있다. 이러한 동작특성은 철심을 자속매개체로 적용되기 때문에 철심조건에 따른 성능평가실험은 필수적이다. 가극결선에서 전원전압을 200[Vrms] 인가시 피크전류는 폐루프가 30.71[A], 개루프가 32.01[A]까지 상승됨에 따라 초기과도 응답특성은 폐루프가 유리하였다. 하지만, 소자에 발생되는 전압이 폐루프가 220.14[V], 개루프가 142.73[V]까지 상승함에 따라, 폐루프 철심구조시 전류제한소자의 부담이 가중됨을 알 수 있었다. 결과적으로 자속구속형 SFCL의 전력계통내 적용 시 각각의 철심구조에 따른 다양한 운전특성을 적절히 설계시 장점을 극대화 할 수 있을 것이다.

We investigated the operating characteristics of the hybrid-type superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) according to the inductance of secondary windings. The hybrid type SFCL consists of a transformer that has a primary winding and a secondary winding with serially connected $YBa_2Cu_3O_7$ (YBCO) films. The resistive-type SFCL has difficulty when it comes to raising the capacity of the SFCL due to slight differences of critical current densities between units and structure of the SFCL. The hybrid-type SFCL with closed-loop is able to achieve capacity increase through the electrical isolation and reduction of the inductance of the secondary winding with a superconducting element of the same critical current. On the other hand, the current limiting characteristics were nearly identical in the hybrid-type SFCL with open-loop compared to closed-loop, but quench time was longer than the hybrid-type SFCL with closed-loop. We confirmed that the capacity of the SFCL was increased effectively by the reduced inductance of the secondary winding. In addition, the power burden of the system also could be lowered by reducing the inductance of secondary winding.

Crack control of precast members is crucial for durability. However, there is no clear provision to check the crack width of precast joints. This study presents an experimental investigation of loop joint details for use in a precast bridge deck system. High strength concrete of 130 MPa was chosen for durability and closer joint spacing. Static tests were conducted to investigate the cracking and ultimate behavior of test specimens. The experimental results indicate that current design codes provide reasonable estimation of the flexural strength and cracking load of precast elements with loop joint of high strength concrete. However, the crack width control of the loop joints with high strength concrete by the current design practices was not appropriate. Some recommendations to improve crack control of the loop joint were derived.

This paper presents a new technique for directly designing a linear digital controller for a single-phase pulse width modulation (PWM) converter systems, based on closed-loop identification. The design procedure consists of three steps. First, obtain a digital current controller for the inner loop system by using the error space approach, so that the power factor of the supply is close to one. The outer loop is composed of a voltage controller, a current control loop including a current controller, a PWM converter, and a capacitor. Then, all the components, except the voltage controller, are identified by a discrete-time equivalent linear model, using the closed-loop output error (CLOE) method. Based on this equivalent model, a proper digital voltage controller is then directly designed. It is shown through PSim simulations and experimental results that the proposed method is useful for the practical design of PWM converter controllers.
