In the fuel-cell electric vehicle system, the low-voltage output of unit fuel-cell demands a number of cells to be stacked In series to produce a DC link voltage which is high enough to drive the vehicle inverter system. However, this increases the complexity of the fuel-cell control system. This paper presents a design of high-efficiency boost converter employing the average current-mode control, which is able to convert a low voltage of a fuel-cell generator with a small number of unit cells to a stable and high DC link voltage for electric vehicle applications.

Fuel cell is spotlighted as next energy source of future. The fuel of vehicle will be changed from fossil fuel such as gasoline, diesel to hydrogen. Polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell(PEMFC) will be used to fuel cell vehicle because of its suitability. PEMFCs need oxygen for cathode. Because PEMFCs in vehicle use air for oxygen, air pollutant will be effect to performance of PEMFC. In this study, we examine a type of filter and pollutant gas how can be effect to performance of fuel cell electric vehicle.

In this paper, we design an effective and secure optical subscriber loop to offer multimedia service to apartment residents. The designed subscriber loop has the following properties. First, a proxy is connected to HDT(Host Digital Termination) which is a switching device, in order to effectively support multimedia services. Second, a scheduler of HDT dynamically manages bandwidth allocation and reallocation to a subscriber considering the situation of communication traffic. Finally, three alternations are used for safety.

Catenary and Pantograph are a power supply devices for electric trains and shall be steadily contacted. Rail catenary must be installed precisely and managed for stable train operations. But external factors such as weathers, nature, etc., or aging affect catenary geometry. Changed catenary height causes high voltage spark or instant electric disconnection. Big spark and disconnection damage pantograph shoe and catenary coating and might interrupt rail operations. To prevent a big scale spark or electric disconnection catenary maintenance shall be required with catenary geometry measurement systems. In this paper, we describe the development of catenary height and stagger measurement system. The catenary height and stagger measurement system uses Acuity company's AR4000 Range Finder for distance measurement and AccuRange Line Scanner for degree measurement. This system reports suspicious overhead line sections with excessive height and stagger variance.

This study proposes a neutral voltage balance control scheme for stable fault-tolerant operation of an active neutral point clamped (ANPC) inverter using carrier-based pulse width modulation. The proposed scheme maintains the neutral voltage balance by reconfiguring the switching combination and modulating the reference output voltage in order to solve the degradation of the output characteristic in the fault tolerant operation due to the fault of the power semiconductor switch constituting the ANPC inverter. The feasibility of the proposed control scheme is confirmed by HIL experiment using RT-BOX.

고전압 대전력 기기인 고온초전도(HTS) 변압기는 기기내의 불순물과 작은 결함에서 발생되는 부분방전이 장시간 지속되어 심각한 고장으로 발전한다. 그러므로 기기의 고장을 미연에 발견하고 예방진단 할 수 있는 다양한 진단 기술이 확립 되어야 한다. 본 논문은 기존의 변압기내 절연유에서 발생될 수 있는 다양한 결함 중 기포, 돌기, 권선과 권선사이, 자율금속 이물질 이렇게 4가지 타입의 모의결함을 제작하여 실험 하였다. 기존의 전력설비 부분방전 진단 시 사용되는 IEC60270 규격으로 실험하여 측정한 데이터 바탕으로 Labview program을 이용하여 자체 개발한 PRPD 분석 프로그램과 오실로스코프를 연동하고 HFCT 센서를 이용하여 취득한 데이터를 비교 분석하였다. 그 결과 IEC60270 측정데이터와 Labview 프로그램을 이용하여 나온 결과 값이 유사하게 나왔다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

This paper introduces the development process and investigation of a 60kW induction motor for electric vehicles. We present performance improvement in the induction motor of electric vehicle using copper die-casting based on a multi-gate process. Copper die-casting motors can reduce the size of the motor, the loss of the rotor, and material costs. We also introduce electromagnetic, thermal, mechanical design and analysis results that satisfy the design and the performance requirements. In order to analyze losses accurately of induction motor, commercial finite element analysis is done considering PWM voltage and thermal characteristics by using lumped-circuit parameters. Experimental tests are also carried out to validate the traction motor design.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the location, distribution and its change of photovoltaic power generation in the scale of municipality(Si-Gun-Gu). First the distribution of photovoltaic power generation was analyzed in 2020, and second, from 2017 to 2021, we tracked the increase in capacity of power generation facilities in each Si-Gun-Gu. As a result, the distribution and increase of photovoltaic power generation were concentrated in some regions and the unequal distribution of photovoltaic power generation has been identified through Gini coefficient.

A self-blast type gas circuit breaker has been studied in this study to improve efficiency of interrupting performance of short line fault(SLF). Hot gas flows of gas circuit breaker have been simulated to evaluate interruption performance using CFD. Design parameters such as various types of expansion chamber and nozzles are suggested by using simulation results. Simulated results and experimental ones are compared with previous (ones that of in under development and with capacitor) GCB. Modified new shape of an expansion chamber and nozzle has been suggested to improve the efficiency of gas flow and to provide guidelines for designing self-blast breaker with a higher interruption capability.

We was made 150L an water storage electric boiler and obtained various performances of the storage, radiant and keeping by experimentation, The storage performance is that the heat were off about 50 minutes after heating start, Then the temperature of outlet was arrived the stead state at $91^{\circ}C$ and the storage performances was appeared 93.64%, In the radiant performance, the water temperature was decreased from $90^{\circ}C$ to $44.8^{\circ}C$ after 960 minutes, Then the calorific value changed from 675kcal/h to 72kcal/h and the temperature decreased about 50%, The keeping performance showed mean temperature, $67.06^{\circ}C$ according to progress 800 minutes and the maximum temperature drop were $0.2^{\circ}C$, By the results of the performance valuation, the water storage electric boiler was verified fitted quality on the test prescription of KERI(Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute).
