The electroluminescence (EL) intensities of GaN-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are estimated based on their photoluminescence (PL) properties. The PL intensity obtained under open-circuit conditions is divided into two parts: the PL intensity under a forward bias lower than the optical turn-on voltage, and the difference between the PL intensities under open-circuit conditions and under forward bias. The luminescence induced by photoexcitation under a constant forward bias lower than the optical turn-on voltage is primarily the PL from the excited area of the LED. In contrast the intensity difference, obtained by subtracting the PL intensity under the forward bias from that under open-circuit conditions, contains the EL induced by the photocarriers generated during photoexcitation. In addition, a reverse photocurrent is generated during photoexcitation under constant forward bias across the LED, and can be correlated with the PL-intensity difference. The relationship between the photocurrent and PL-intensity difference matches well the relationship between the injection current and EL intensity of LEDs. The ratio between the photocurrent generated under a bias and the short-circuit current is related to the ratio between the PL-intensity difference and the PL intensity under open-circuit conditions. A relational expression consisting of the ratios, short-circuit current, and PL under open-circuit conditions is proposed to estimate the EL intensity.

본 논문은 리튬배터리의 고온 및 단락전류에 따른 폭발 및 화재 위험성을 분석하기 위한 연구이다. 이에 대표적인 리튬배터리 종류인 리튬폴리머배터리 및 리튬이온배터리를 실험시료로 선정하였다. 고온에 따른 폭발위험성 측정결과 리튬폴리머배터리의 경우 평균 $170^{\circ}C$, 리튬이온배터리의 경우 평균 $187^{\circ}C$에서 폭발이 일어났다. 단락전류에 따른 온도상승측정결과 보호회로가 정상작동 할 경우 과전류를 제한하여 온도상승이 거의 없었지만, 보호회로가 고장 났을 경우 리튬폴리머배터리의 경우 평균 $115.7^{\circ}C$ 및 리튬이온배터리 경우 평균 $80.5^{\circ}C$까지 상승하여 화재 및 화상 위험성이 높게 나타나는 것으로 측정되었다.

최근 저압 배전계통에서 사용되고 있는 과부하겸용 누전차단기 즉, RCD의 저조한 응답특성으로 인한 전기화재 원인의 대부분을 차지하는 단락사고 및 과부하사고에 대한 대응이 매우 미흡한 실정이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 기존 RCD에 대한 모의 사고실험을 통하여 그 비신뢰성을 확인하고, 이러한 RCD의 단점을 개선하고자 내구성과 속응성이 우수한 반도체 스위칭 소자들과 고정밀 전류센서를 이용한 "전기화재 방재장치(EFDPD : Electrical Fire Disaster Prevention Device)"를 제안하여 저압 배전계통에서의 단락 및 과부하사고로 인한 전기재해를 방지하고자 한다. 제안한 장치의 고정밀 전류센서로 사용된 리드스위치는 각종 전기사고에서 수반되는 단락전류 및 과전류에 의한 배전선로의 상승된 자속을 정밀 감지한 후, 자체 차단장치를 동작시키는 원리를 가진다. 다양한 동작특성 분석을 통하여 기존의 차단기와 비교하여 차단동작 응답속도와 그 신뢰성이 입증된다. 이로써 제안한 전기안전 제어장치는 기존 RCD들의 빈번한 오동작과 비신뢰성, 저조한 응답특성으로 인한 각종 전기사고 및 전기화재의 발생을 방지하고자 한다.

최근 전력규모의 확대에 따라 안정된 전력의 공급을 위협하는 전력계통의 고장이 급속히 증가되고 있으며, 그중 단락전류의 계산에 대하여 지금까지는 대부분 수작업으로 계산을 하여왔다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 종전의 수작업에 의존하여 단락용량 계산서를 작성했던 방법을 Visual Basic을 접목시켜 프로그램화하여 사용함으로서 전기설비에 대한 차단 용량 값을 정확하게 산출하여 계통도 안정 및 부하설비에 대한 신뢰성을 확보할 수 있도록 하였다. 앞으로 이에 대한 연구는 전기설비관련 분야의 설계 및 시공분야에서 폭넓게 사용하게 될 것이다.

Coordination under short-circuit conditions is a systematic application of protective devices in the electrical power system, which, in response to a fault, will remove only a minimum amount of equipment from service. The objective is not only to minimize the equipment damage and process outage costs, but also to protect personnel from the effects of these failures. The coordination study of an electric power system consists of an organizes time-current study of all devices in series from the utilization device to the source. This study is a comparison of the time it takes the individual devices to operate when certain levels of normal or abnormal current pass through the protective devices. The objective of a coordination study is to determine the characteristics, ratings, and settings of overcurrent protective devices that will ensure that the minimum unfaulted load is interrupted when the protective devices isolate a fault or overload anywhere in the system. At the same time, the devices and settings selected should provide satisfactory protection against overloads on the equipment and interrupt short-circuit as rapidly as possible.

Portable electronic devices secondary batteries can cause fire and explosion due to micro-current change in addition to the situation of short-circuit inrush current, safety can not be secured with a general operation limited current fuse. Therefore, in secondary battery, it is necessary for the protector to satisfy both the limit current type operation in the open-short-circuit inrush current and the current detection operation characteristic in the micro current change situation and for this operation, a fuse for the current detection type secondary battery protection circuit can be applied. The purpose of this study is to design a protection device that operates stably in the hazardous situation of small capacity secondary battery for portable electronic devices through the design of low melting fuse elements alloy of sensing type fuse and secures stability in abnormal current state. As a result of the experiment, I-T and V-T operation characteristics are satisfied in a the design of the alloy of the current sensing type self-contained low melting point fuse and the resistance of the heating resistor. It is confirmed that it can prevent accidents of short circuit over-current and micro current change of secondary battery.

This paper focuses on monitoring and predicting the short circuit faults of the rotor windings of large turbo-generator systems. For the purpose of increasing efficiency and decreasing maintenance cost, a method that combines the HHT (Hilbert Huang Transform) with a wavelet has been studied. This method is based on analyzing a classical Albright detecting coil. Due to the Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) and the Intrinsic Mode Functions (IMF) of the HHT the exact location of a short circuit of rotor windings may be given. However, a part of the useful information is eliminated by the unreasonable decomposing scale of the wavelet. Based on the thermodynamics modeling method, this study was illustrated with a 50MW turbo-generator system that is installed in Northern China. The analysis results, which have very good agreement with those of a previous study, show that the method of combining the HHT with a wavelet is an effective way to analyze and predict the short circuit faults of the rotor windings of large generators, such as supercritical turbo-generator systems and wind turbo-generator systems. This work can offer a useful reference for analyzing smart grids by improving the power quality of a distribution network that is supplied by a turbo-generator system.

This paper deals with the effects of the volume of thermal expansion chamber on the interrupting performance in thermal expansion type 25.8kV 25kA gas circuit breaker. Model interrupters with 5 type thermal expansion chamber were designed and manufactured. Short-circuit tests were carried out for those model interrupters with 25kA breaking current. Pressure rise in the expansion chamber were measured and compared with the calculated one which was obtained from a self-developed program in our team. The analysis on the interrupting performance of each model interrupter has been done on the base of the short-circuit test results.

These days, widespread use of sensitive loads and distributed generators makes static transfer switch (STS) an essential component in power circuits to achieve a good power quality for AC Grids. In case of a short-circuit fault, previous STS cannot break the fault current. However, the proposed STS has the capability of breaking it quickly as a circuit breaker. Also if there are power quality problems such as Sag/Swell, the proposed STS can quickly transfers the load to the good quality source. Furthermore it is proved that the transfer time of the proposed STS is within one half of period of 3-phase source frequency regardless of the type of load. It is anticipated that the proposed STS may be utilized to realize many stable and reliable AC grid systems.

Maximum power point tracking for PV systems traditionally uses either perturbation and observation method or incremental conductance method. Both methods require modulation of the output voltage and this leads to significant power loss. In this paper, a method, which senses output circuit voltage and short circuit current and use the above two parameters for optimum control with a fuzzy controller, is introduced. The short circuit current of PV cell represents illumination, and the output circuit voltage carry on information about the temperature. PCS(power conditioning system) is controlled not only feed to inverter for stability voltage variation despite of variety external environment, but also operate in order to feeding voltage and current at maximum power point by boost type chopper.
