Major problem in the high voltage power transmission line is the flashover due to polluted ceramic insulators which leads to failure of equipments, catastrophic fires and power outages. This paper deals with the development of a better diagnostic tool to predict the flashover and pollution severity of power transmission line insulators based on the wavelet transform and fuzzy c-means clustering approach. In this work, laboratory experiments were carried out on power transmission line porcelain insulators under AC voltages at different pollution conditions and corresponding leakage current patterns were measured. Discrete wavelet transform technique is employed to extract important features of leakage current signals. Variation of leakage current magnitude and distortion ratio at different pollution levels were analyzed. Fuzzy c-means algorithm is used to cluster the extracted features of the leakage current data. Test results clearly show that the flashover and pollution severity of power transmission line insulators can be effectively realized through fuzzy clustering technique and it will be useful to carry out preventive maintenance work.

본 논문에서는 BLDC MOTOR를 2상 여자 unipolar PWM방식으로 구동할 때 개방된 상의 역병렬 다이오드를 통해 원치 않는 누설전류의 흐름이 생기는 원인 및 영향을 분석하고 이를 제거할 수 있는 개선된 unipolar PWM 방식을 제안하였다. 개방된 상에 흐르는 누설전류는 속도가 증가할수록, PWM duty가 감소할수록 증가하며 전동기 출력의 손실을 초래한다. 제안된 unipolar PWM방식의 유효성을 시뮬레이션 및 실험을 통하여 검증하였다.

The leakage characteristic is an important factor in power plant. However, most of power plant have efficiency problem which is occurred leaking between high pressure steam turbine axle and stator. The labyrinth seal which is used between the main turbine axle and stator in the power plant. Because it is able to be non-contact seal and it is minimize clearance to decrease the leakage. But its actual system is too huge to experiment. Therefore, most steam turbine seal performance tests were conducted by air similarity test. This paper described a test facility and program for air similarity test of high pressure steam turbine seal. A test facility has been designed and built to evaluate leakage verification of labyrinth seal. The test facility consist of air compressor, anti-swirl labyrinth seal for 1/3 air similarity model, pressure transducer, air flow measure system, instrumentation and auxiliary system. For evaluation of steam turbine seal performance, the air similarity test of labyrinth seal leakage verification was conducted and we compared experiment data and analysis result.

This paper presents the results of power spectra using the fundamental and low frequency harmonic components of leakage current waveform to study aging on contaminated EPDM insulator(was serviced during 1997-2001, region Pohang, korea) under salt fog conditions. Experiments have been conducted in the chamber salt fog and at the 16KVrms. The salt contents adjusted as 0g,25g,50g and 75g per liter of deionized water. The onset of dry-band arcing on polymer insulators could be determined by signal processing the low frequency harmonics components. A correlation has been found between the fundamental and low harmonic components of power spectra on leakage current. Where aging could be associated with an increase in the level of both the fundamental and low frequency harmonics components of leakage current. Surface aging for contaminated EPDM insulators occurred when the fundamental component of leakage current was greater then some level On the other hand, when the polymer insulator approached failure, the fundamental component of leakage current reached relatively high values and low frequency harmonics components of the leakage current trended to decrease. The results suggest that both the fundamental and low frequency harmonics of leakage current can be used as a tool to determine both the beginning of aging and before flashover, end of life EPBM insulator in salt fog.

Magnetic circuit is a physical modeling method that is useful in designing and analyzing power transformers, especially for a priori evaluation of leakage and magnetizing inductance before actual production. In this study, a novel modeling approach that uses PSIM magnetic elements adopting gyrator and permeance-capacitances is investigated. A formula to determine the permeance-capacitors in the core and leakage path are established, and a simulation jig is devised to link the physical model and the electrical terminal characteristics with an automated parameter determination process. The derived formula is verified by measurement results of the prototype transformer samples. Given its accuracy and simplicity, this approach is suitable for analyzing and designing LLC resonant transformers whose leakage and magnetizing inductance are very critical to circuit operation.

This paper presents a data acquisition and analysis program modules that has been developed using the Labview program. These program modules can use to acquire and analyze leakage current data of insulator under different contamination conditions. The experimental hardware made up salt fog chamber, AC/DC power supply, transducer (shunt resistor), measurement devices and PC with the GPIB (General Purpose Interface Bus). And analysis program modules can calculate pulse level count, accumulated charge, average leakage current, power spectrum, and harmonics. The result of applying these analytical program modules to polymeric insulator is available for evaluation of leakage current characteristic of outdoor insulators.

In case that in-leakage through the valve disk occurs, a numerical study is performed to estimate on thermal stratification phenomenon in the Safety Injection piping connected with the Reactor Coolant System piping of Nuclear Power Plant. As the leakage flow rate increases, the temperature difference between top and bottom of horizontal piping has the inflection point. In the connection point of valve and piping, the maximum temperature difference between top and bottom was 185K and occurred in the condition of 10 times of standard leakage flow rate. In the connection point of elbow and horizontal piping, the maximum temperature difference was 145K and occurred in the condition of 15 times of standard leakage flow rate. In the vertical piping of Safety Injection piping, the near of connection point between elbow and vertical piping showed the outstanding thermal stratification phenomenon in comparison with another region because of turbulent penetration from Reactor Coolant System piping. In order to prevent damage of piping due to the thermal stratification when in-leakage through the valve disk occurs, the connection points between valve and piping, and the connection points between elbow and piping need to be inspected continually.

Increase of gate leakage current causes decrease of gain and increase of noise. In this paper, gate leakage current of GaAs MESEFTs' has been traced with different temperatures from $27^{\circ}C\;to\;350^{\circ}C$ to obtain the zero voltage saturation current $J_s$ which is critical to the temperature dependency of total current. From the results, thermal leakage current coefficient has been proposed to compensate for the total current due to the thermionic emission, tunneling, generation and/or hole injection.
