In this paper, we present the U-Statistic test for testing exponentiality against new renewal better than used (NRBU) based on a goodness of fit approach. Selected critical values are tabulated for sample sizes n=5(1)30(10)50. The asymptotic Pitman relative efficiency relative to (NRBU) test given in the work of Mahmoud et all (2003) is studied. The power estimates of this test for some commonly used life distributions in reliability are also calculated. Some of real examples are given to elucidate the use of the proposed test statistic in the reliability analysis. The problem in case of right censored data is also handled.

본 논문에서는 석탄 화력발전소(500[MW]) 보일러의 통풍계통에 적용되는 축류형 송풍기가 정상 운정 중 맥동과 같은 특수한 현상이 발생하게 되어 비정상적으로 운전함으로써 날개를 파손시키게 된다. 이러한 비정상 운전을 방지하기 위해 기존의 맥동 감시 장치에 본 연구에서 제안하는 제어 로직을 적용한 시스템에 대해 현장 실험을 통한 신뢰성 평가를 하였다.

An improved steam generator model has been developed for the DSNP simulation of normal operational transient behavior of CANDU nuclear power plant. For more realistic prediction of steam generator behavior during transient, tube bundle region is divided into two separate control volumes, subcooled region and saturated region, and the variation of thermal hydraulic properties in the control volume is accounted for more realistic estimates of outlet enthalpy of each control volume. Test results for typical CANDU operational transient case show reasonable transient behavior of steam generator with overall CANDU operation and improved operational characteristics of steam generator with power variation.

This paper proposes a restarting method for extended electromotive force (EEMF)-based sensorless permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive systems. The sensorless PMSM drive systems generally estimate the rotor speed and angle based on EEMF. However, if the inverter is stopped while the PMSM is rotating, the initial rotor speed and angle are required for restart. Therefore, the proposed restarting method estimates the initial rotor speed and angle using the short-circuit current generated by applying zero voltage vector from the inverter. The validity of the proposed method is verified by simulation and experimental results.

We show that a pseudo-Anosov map constructed as a product of the large power of Dehn twists of two filling curves always has a geodesic axis on the curve graph of the surface. We also obtain estimates of the stable translation length of a pseudo-Anosov map, when two filling curves are replaced by multicurves. Three main applications of our theorem are the following: (a) determining which word realizes the minimal translation length on the curve graph within a specific class of words, (b) giving a new class of pseudo-Anosov maps optimizing the ratio of stable translation lengths on the curve graph to that on Teichmüller space, (c) giving a partial answer of how much power is needed for Dehn twists to generate right-angled Artin subgroup of the mapping class group.

스마트 폰과 같은 모바일 기기에서 동작하는 응용 소프트웨어는 제한된 배터리 용량으로 인하여 안정적인 서비스를 지속적으로 제공하는데 어려움을 갖는다. 과거에는 배터리의 수명을 연장 시키거나 소모전력이 적은 하드웨어 장치들을 개발하는 것으로 모바일 기기의 소모전력을 관리하였다. 그러나 시스템에 탑재되는 소프트웨어가 복잡해짐에 따라 소프트웨어에 대한 소모전력 분석 연구도 관심을 갖게 되었다. 이러한 연구들 중에서 모델 기반의 소모전력 분석은 코드가 개발되기 이전에 미리 소모전력을 분석하고, 분석 결과를 기반으로 소프트웨어를 개발한다는 측면에서 소모전력 감소를 위한 하나의 중요한 전략으로 인식되어 오고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 소프트웨어의 행위 모델인 UML의 상태기계(State Machine) 다이어그램을 이용하는 소모전력 분석 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 분석기법은 상태기계 다이어그램을 페트리 넷으로 변환하고, 이의 시뮬레이션을 통해 소모전력을 예측하게 된다.

Mercury is one of the most hazardous air pollutants. Recently, mercury has been a concern in domestic and overseas because it has lethal toxicity, long distance transport, persistence and bioaccumulation in the environment. Stationary combustion sources such as coal-fired power plants, waste incinerators, and cement kilns are the major sources of mercury emissions. The objectives of this study were to measure the concentration for mercury from coal-fired power plants and to calculate emission factor to estimate its emission. The results showed that the mercury concentrations in the flue gas were 1.63-3.03 mg/$Sm^3$ in anthracite-fired power plants (average 2.32 mg/$Sm^3$) and 1.95-3.33 mg/$Sm^3$ in bituminous-fired power plants (average 2.6 mg/$Sm^3$). Mercury emission factor was estimated as 25.74 mg/ton for anthracite-fired power plants and 12.48 mg/ton for bituminous-fired power plants. Because actual measurements are limited in quantity, it is desirable to refine our estimates by extending the actual measurements.

With the opening of the small power brokerage business market in December 2018, the small power trading market has started in Korea. Operators must submit the day-ahead estimates of power output and receive incentives based on its accuracy. Therefore, the accuracy of power generation forecasts is directly affects profits of the operators. The forecasting process for power generation can be divided into two procedure. The first is to forecast solar irradiation and the second is to transform forecasted solar irradiation into power generation. There are two methods for transformation. One is to simulate with physical model, and another is to use regression model. In this study, we found the best-fit regression model by analyzing hourly data of PV output and solar irradiation data during three years for 242 PV plants in Korea. The best model was not a linear model, but a sigmoidal model and specifically a Gompertz model. The combined linear regression and Gompertz curve was proposed because a the curve has non-zero y-intercept. As the result, R² and RMSE between observed data and the curve was significantly reduced.

This paper presents the new power dissipation model of individual switching device in a high-level modular multilevel converter (MMC), which can be mostly used in voltage sourced converter (VSC) based high-voltage direct current (HVDC) system and flexible AC transmission system (FACTS). Also, the voltage balancing method based on sorting algorithm is newly proposed to advance the MMC functionalities by effectively adjusting switching variations of the sub-module (SM). The proposed power dissipation model does not fully calculate the average power dissipation for numerous switching devices in an arm module. Instead, it estimates the power dissipation of every switching element based on the inherent operational principle of SM in MMC. In other words, the power dissipation is computed in every single switching event by using the polynomial curve fitting model with minimum computational efforts and high accuracy, which are required to manage the large number of SMs. After estimating the value of power dissipation, the thermal condition of every switching element is considered in the case of external disturbance. Then, the arm modeling for high-level MMC and its control scheme is implemented with the electromagnetic transient simulation program. Finally, the case study for applying to the MMC based HVDC system is carried out to select the appropriate insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) module in a steady-state, as well as to estimate the proper thermal condition of every switching element in a transient state.

To estimate the genetic characteristics and cumulative power of discrimination (CPD) existing among Hanwoo (Korean cattle) and exotic foreign population (Angus, Herford, Charolais, Holstein) we used a total of 414 genomic DNAs from five breeds population (Hanwoo, Angus, Hereford, Charolais, Holstein). Genetic characteristics indices including mean allele number among loci, unbiased heterozygosity ($h_i$) within locus and polymorphic information content (PIC) and unbiased average heterozygosity (H) among loci in four breeds were calculated using the generated allele frequencies by each marker. The mean allele numbers for all loci ranged between 5 and 7 while heterozygosity (H) ranged from 0.75 (HW) to 0.64 (HF) among loci and across breeds heterozygosity (H) was 0.69. The generated unbiased average heterozygosity among loci in each breed was integrated to the global formula of CPD resulting in 99.71 % within the populations. The genetic variation of HW (Hanwoo) showed highest estimates among the analyzed breeds.
