This paper proposes a new algorithm to find optimal location of open switches connecting feeders in distribuion system. In order to enhance power system reliability by minimizing outage area in case of fault, the load balance among the facilities such as transformers and feeders is considered to optimize. The combination of optimal position of normal open switches can be found by moving tie along the direct path connecting two feeders related to the open switch while the whole optimization problem is separated into many small problems. The proposed algorithm is shown by case study results that, it is simple and takes short calculation time to apply to the DAS (Distribution Automation System) in KEPCO (Korea Electric Power Cooperation).

The approach for evaluating the critical heat flux (CHF) margin using the departure from nucleate boiling ratio (DNBR) concept has been widely applied to PWR core design, while DNBR in this approach does not indicate appropriately the CHF margin in terms of the attainable power margin-to-CHF against a reactor core condition. The CHF power margin must be calculated by increasing power until the minimum DNBR reaches a DNBR limit. The Critical Power Ratio (CPR), defined as the ratio of the predicted CHF power to the operating power, is considered more reasonable for indicating the CHF margin and can be calculated by a CPR orrelation based on the heat balance of a test bundle. This approach yields directly the CHF power margin, but the calculated CPR must be corrected to compensate for many local effects of the actual core, which are not considered in the CHF test and analysis. In this paper, correction of the calculated CPR is made so that it may become equal to the DNB overpower margin. Exemplary calculations showed that the correction tends to be increased as power distribution is more distorted, but are not unduly large.

Recently, the operation of power distribution systems has become more difficult because the peak demand load is increasing continuously and the daily load factor is getting worse and worse. Also, the consideration of deregulation and global environment in electric power industry is required. In order to overcome these problems, a study on the planning and operation in distribution systems of dispersed generating sources such as fuel cell systems, photovoltaic systems and wind power systems has been performed energetically. This study presents a method for determining an optimal operation strategy of dispersed co-generating sources, especially fuel cell systems, in the case of both only electric power supply and thermal supply as well as electric power supply. In other words, the optimal operation of these sources can be determined easily by the principle of equal incremental fuel cost and the thermal merits is evaluated quantitatively through Kuhn-Tucker's optimal conditions. In order to select the optimal locations of those sources, an priority method using the comparison of total cost at the peak load time interval is also presented. The validity of the proposed algorithms is demonstrated using a model system.

Autoreclosing techniques have been used in power systems to maintain system stability and continuity of supply. Environmental and economical issues have driven significant increases in the development of distributed generation (DG). DG connected to distribution systems, however, may impose negative influences with respect to power quality, protection, and stability, because DG can cause some challenges to protection, especially to reclosing. For this reason, in order to improve the reliability and safety of the distribution system, the rules and guidelines suggest that the DG system needs to be rapidly disconnected from the system before reclosing. We present, in this paper, an adaptive reclosing algorithm considering the DG. The algorithm consists of an angle oscillation's judgment, the emergency extended equal-area criterion (EEEAC), the calculation of an optimal reclosing time, and a reconnection algorithm. Our simulation results for three different DG technologies with Electromagnetic Transient Program (EMTP) indicate that we can maintain transient stability while the DG is protected against disturbances.

This paper discusses the effects of CD type superconducting cable operation in 22.9kV multi neutral grounded distribution system during L-G fault and counterplans to power system protection. In case of using the 3-phase CD-type superconducting cable, the inductance of superconducting cable system would be decreased due to the current of shield part of superconducting cable, which is opposite direction and nearly equal value with respect to main superconductor. However, when the shield circuit system is operated in shorted state, shield current decreases faulted ground current and give effects to power system protection scheme. This study examines the phenomena of single line to ground fault case in above mentioned system using the EMTDC program and discusses the right operation method of superconducting shield.

An important aspect of the study of power system markets involves the assessment of strategic behavior of participants for maximizing their profits. In models of imperfect competition of a deregulated electricity system the key task is to find the Nash equilibrium. In this paper, the bimatrix approach for finding Nash equilibria in electricity markets is investigated. This approach determines pure and mixed equilibria using the complementarity pivot algorithm. The mixed equilibrium in the matrix approach has the equal number of non-zero property. This property makes it difficult to reproduce a smooth continuous distribution for the mixed equilibrium. This paper proposes an algorithm for adjusting the quantization value of discretization to reconstruct a continuous distribution from a discrete one.

The autoreclosing is applied to power system for maintaining system stability and continuity of supply. Developments on distributed generation(DG) grows significantly by environmental issues and economical issues. If the DG is connected to distribution system, the DG influences the technical aspects such as power quality, protection and stability. It causes the challenges to protection, especially to reclosing. In order to achieve reliability and safety of the distribution system, the rules and guidelines suggest that the DG units should be rapidly disconnected from the network before the reclosing. If the DG is disconnected whenever the fault occurs, it cannot be utilized effectively. This paper presents the adaptive reclosing algorithm considering the DG. The algorithm consists of angle oscillation's judgment, EEEAC(Emergency Expanded Equal-Area Criterion), calculation of optimal reclosing time and re-connection algorithm. The simulation is implemented for the DG technology by using EMTP MODELS. The simulation results show that the transient stability is maintained and the DG is protected against disturbance.

본 논문에서는 Two-transistor 포워드 컨버터에서 사용 가능한 기존의 소프트 스위칭 기법과 새로운 소프트 스위칭 기법의 손실 분석을 수행한다. 두 트랜지스터에서 발생하는 스너버 전류에 의한 트랜지스터 손실과 내부 커패시터에 의한 턴-온 손실을 유도하고, 각각의 트랜지스터에서 발생하는 전체 손실을 계산한다. 손실 계산을 통해 기존의 소프트 스위칭 기법에서는 두 트랜지스터에서 발생하는 손실이 상이함을 보이고, 새로운 소프트 스위칭 기법에서는 손실이 적으면서도 두 트랜지스터에서의 손실이 고르게 발생함을 알 수 있다. 그리하여 제안된 소프트 스위칭 스너버를 사용하여 고른 열분포와 향상된 신뢰도를 얻을 수 있음을 보인다.

본 논문은 크론바흐 알파 신뢰계수의 유의성 검정에서 이상치가 검정력에 미치는 영향을 연구한 것이다. 표본 크기, 문항들의 수, 이상치의 수, 모집단의 크론바흐 알파 레벨의 네 개의 변수들에 변화를 주었다. 데이터 시물에이션을 위해 다변량 정규분포를 사용했고 균일분포로부터 이상치를 추출하여 사용했다. 크론바흐 알파 신뢰도의 유의성 검정을 위해 모수적 검정(F 검정)과 퍼뮤테이션 검정을 사용하였다. 결과적으로 퍼뮤테이션 검정의 검정력은 F검정의 검정력 보다 크거나 같았고, 두 검정의 검정력은 모두 이상치의 수가 많아질수록 감소하였으며 이러한 이상치의 영향은 모집단의 알파 레벨이 증가할수록 크게 나타났다.
