The neutral section on electric railway system is significant sector in order to prevent short circuit of two electric powers. However, while electric trains pass the neutral section, those speed is decreased and the accident of AC electric traction system and the electric train would be occurred. So the countermeasures are urgently needed. The automatic power switching technology system that is current being research and development is system to improve these problems. Because main object of this system is power change using static switch in the neutral section, it's expected to cause a variety of transients. Especially, onboard transformer inrush current for electric railway train can be occurred more than rated current according to switching time. Therefore, the analysis and improvement are needed to ensure the stability of this system. In this paper, we analyze the operating characteristics of the automatic power switching technology system. Especially, it reviews inrush current according to the closing phase angle. And we propose control plan of inrush current considering the case that voltage is maintained due to counter electromotive force and regenerative braking operation of electric railway train. Finally, the proposed control scheme was reviewed using the transient analysis program.

The generator on-line diagnosis system has been developed. This system monitor the insulation condition of stator winding by on-line measurements of partial discharge and the shorted-turn condition of rotor winding by on-line measurements of slot leakage flux. Sensor, such as SSC(Stator Slot Coupler) and flux probe are used for generator on-line diagnosis.

Hydro-electric power generation from multi-purpose dams has been playing important roles in the electric power supply network in Korea. Although the total share of hydro power in national electricity supply now becomes very small, the peak-shaving and frequency control capability of hydro power helps the power company enormously in maintaining the quality of power. But since the company that builds and operates the multi-purpose dams in Korea has to sell all the electricity produced to the monopolistic utility, there have been various problems in justifying the investment, designing pricing mechanism, and controlling operations of the power plants. In addition, economic evaluation of the hydro power has been distorted by a variety of reasons and hence it has been very difficult to encourage effective development and utilization of national water resources. To make the problem worse, both parties are public companies with X-inefficiency problems. Thus, changing environment requires to reengineer the system that governs hydro power generation. We address the problems of Korean hydro-electric power generation system in four areas: the investment justification process, the operations decison right of the hydro power plants, the pricing of the purchased-power, and the negotiation of contract revision. Then we propose improvement directions of new hydro-electric power system in view of static and dynamic efficiency, X-inefficiency and equity.

Power plant simulators have been used for operator training, control verification and engineering verification. In general, simulators can be used in the place where they are installed by only single user group at a time. Considering high cost of simulator development, a lot of available scenarios, the diversity of user level and accessibility based on users' work location, development of simulator system that can be used by multiple user groups regardless of location is required in order to enhance utilization of simulators. In this paper, the simulator system that can be used by multiple user group simultaneously without location limitation is proposed. The simulator system is composed of simulator servers, database servers, HMI servers, a web server, web clients. Simulator server consists of control model, process model that are developed for Circulating Fluidized Bed power plant located overseas. A web server manages user accounts, operation procedures, multiple server access between web client group and simulator server group. In other words, a web server makes a user group select a simulator server at a time. The developed simulator system is integrated after implementing process model, control model, HMI, and web server. Web client systems are installed on local site where power plant is located, while simulator servers, HMI servers, database servers, and a web server are located in KEPCO RI. The developed simulator system is verified by steady-state test, malfunction test and so on via remote access.

As enforced by the regulation on the improving fuel efficiency and increased the demand on green technology, many interests are focused on electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles. Thus the technology development in electrification of vehicle operation system, including steering and braking field, is actively progressive. Especially electric power steering substitutes for hydraulic power steering rapidly in the market, which is more complex and bigger in packaging volume compared with electric power steering system. The core component in electric power steering system is a motor, which is required to be silent and powerful to guarantee required system performance. Brushless synchronous motors are widely used and many variations of the motors are introduced in the market, while the performance of each type is not well defined or studied for electric power steering system. In this paper, recent developments in brushless synchronous motor are reviewed and compared applying finite element analysis in electromagnetic field. As results, each characteristic of different types of brushless synchronous motors is compared and summarized for optimized selection in electric power steering system.

In this paper, an actuator model of the thrust magnetic bearing for the flywheel energy storage is derived using magnetic circuit theory. And we compared this result with finite element magnetic field analysis result. Based on the actuator model, we made a simulation model of the thrust magnetic bearing system. We showed the closed loop transfer function and sensitivity function of the thrust magnetic bearing system using both the simulation model and the experiment. The experimental result at rotation velocity 18,000rpm of thrust magnetic bearing system is included.

The operation of Back-To-Back HVDC system for asynchronous connection is described. It can exchange electric power up to 300 MW between separately operated two rower systems, making the interaction on each system minimum. The analysis is done under three different AC transmission lines interconnected to BTB HVDC.

In recent years, it becomes a worldwide trend that the power utilities focus their attention to Demand Side Management. Increasing Electric power consumption, they adopt a direct load management to accomplish low cost and stability of electric supply. Following this trend, KEPCO is researching a Direct Load Control System for Air Conditioner. This Paper presents the development results of the Direct Load Control System to Control electric power consumption of Conditioner in summer period this year.

The wind turbine system, one of the distributed resource, has a large effect on the distribution system. because windfarm is located in the end part of the distribution system, the hilly section and the shore, which is easy to obtain the wind energy, it is difficult to manage the voltage and the power quality. Therefore this paper deals with the measurement and assessment of power quality characteristic of wind turbines with IEC 61400-21.
