In this paper, it is simulated the line fault in the renweable energy pilot system and the distance is calculated using a modified fault distance calculation algorithm and the measurement data. The modified fault distance calculation algorithm calculate fault distance using the measurement data from power quality monitors (PQM) and the topology of the distribution networks. This algorithm is applied to PSCAD/EMTDC and the renewable energy pilot system. And these results are compared and analyzed.

Hydraulic vane pumps are widely used in various hydraulic systems because of its compactness and light weight. It is well known that the vanes and cam ring are separated by very thin liquid films which result in the EHL state. Contrary to the case of cylindrical roller bearings, the inlet and side boundary pressures are much higher than the atmospheric pressure. In this paper, a numerical solution of the EHL of finite line contacts between the cam ring and vane tip with profiled ends is presented. Using a finite difference method with non-uniform grids and the Newton-Raphson method, converged solutions are obtained for moderate load and material parameters. The EHL pressure distribution and film shape are considerably affected by pump delivery pressure and the side boundary condition applied. Both the maximum pressure and the minimum film thickness always occurred near the edge regions. The present results can be used in the design of optimum vane profile in hydraulic vane pump.

Finite element analysis showed that strong magnetic fields were distributed around the arc furnace where the strongest magnetic fields were generated around the three phase cables. The second and third strongest fields near the arc furnace were found to be generated around the electrodes and the mast-arms, respectively. The generated field intensities were greatly influenced by the mast arm structure of the arc furnace as well as the phase differences and operation currents of the supplied power, Magnetic field decay patterns around the arc furnace could be smoothly fitted by this equation of exponential formula, H=H$0_$+Ae$^{\frac{r}{t}}$. These results revealed that magnetic field intensities around the arc furnace could be estimated at any 3-dimensional position using finite element method (FEM).

Measuring ground resistance has been a popular method of evaluation of the grounding electrode performance. If some portions of grounding electrodes are lost by corrosion, aging or other reasons, consequent deteriotation of the grounding performance would be resulted. It is one of the reasons why it is required to evaluate the performance of grounding systems regularly. However, in case of the electric facilities with multi-grounded system such as power substations with multi-grounded overhead ground wires and/or distribution line neutrals, it is practically difficult to disconnect neutrals or skywires from the substation grounding mesh for the ground resistance measurement. In this paper, a method for the grounding performance measurement of multi-grounded systems, which is based on the measuring ground current distributions, has been proposed. A field test results has shown the validity of the proposed test method.

This paper proposes an arc fault circuit interrupter (AFCI) using the distorted voltage wave in electric arc faults. It perceives a voltage instantaneously at the time of voltage drop. and occurrence. It is an AFCI of the new concept which operates with high reliability. The primary reason of electric fire is arc and spark. It prevents an electric fire or an electric leakage accident with quick responsiveness. Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker(ELB), Molded_case Circuit Breaker (MCCB) or Residual Current Protective Device(RCD) can not cut off electric arc or spark to be a major factor of electrical fire. This theory will be able to intercept an arc or a spark. which occurrence with periodic. Consequently It raises a reliability and validates a practicality of RCD.

Using WAsP, which is PC-program for the vertical and horizontal extrapolation of wind data, annual energy production as well as wind energy density has been predicted for Haengwon wind farm in Jeju island. The predicted results were compared with real data derived from wind turbines in Haengwon wind farm. As the results, in order to produce more electric power, new wind turbines should be located along coastal line, which has comparatively high wind energy density. Also, the roughness length should be inputted to the Map Editor program for better agreement with real annual energy production.

This paper presents an algorithm that can compute equivalent impedance effctively in computing 3-phase short circuit current which would be generated in power systems. Also this paper proposes a method that can decide the capacity of circuit breaker by analysing the fault current distribution probabilistically when the fault point of specificed line varies. The efficiency of the algorithm was verified by applying the proposed method to IEEE-6bus system and IEEE-30bus system, and probabilistic fault analysing method is verified economic in facility investment by deciding the proper capacity of circuit breaker.

To reduce the maintenance expence, and the possibility of electric outage and accident, accurate measurement should be carried. But the classical method has some problems in the aspect of man power, reliability, and expence. In this paper, we propose a new type apparatus, which could detect the degree of contamination on insulators on outdoor insulation system, such as transmission and distribution line insulator and bushing. The new type apparatus consists of Pelltier module, electrode system, and measuring part. At first leakage current detecting method was considered, then with the fault(oxidation of electrode) of that method we should propose a another method. We carried various test to prove the possiblity and reliability of the propoused apparatus. And we get some useful result with laboratory test.

Electro-pneumatic valves are an electro-mechanical device which convert electric signal into pneumatic flow rate or pressure signal. Recently, the development tendency of electro-pneumatic valve is to make the valve with more compact and less electric power consumption style. To make the valve such as a style, the role of solenoid part is very important. This paper is used in the finite-element method for the purpose of evaluating the magnetic property of solenoid and analyze flux distribution of solenoid theoretically. From flux contour line which is obtained by numerical analysis, it verified that the plunger shape and physical property of solenoid part have influence on saturation phenomenon and leakage of magnetic fluxs. This paper made an experiment on the measurement of dynamic response time and force in order to confirm the propety of analytic result, and confirmed a good agreement between analysis results and experiment results.
