This paper presents the results of field tests on Voltage Management System (VMS) using hybrid voltage control, which utilizes coordinated controls of various reactive power resources such as generators, FACTS and switched shunt devices to regulate the pilot bus voltage in a voltage control area. It also includes the results of performance test on RTDS-based test bed in order to validate the VMS before installing it in Jeju power system. The main purpose of the system is adequately to regulate the reactive power reserve of key generators in a normal condition with coordination of discrete shunt devices such as condensers and reactors so that the reserves can avoid voltage collapse in emergency state in Jeju system. Field tests in the automatic mode of VMS operation are included in steady-states and transient states. Finally, by the successful operation of VMS in Jeju power system, the VMS is proved to effectively control system voltage profiles in steady-state condition, increase system MVAR reserves and improve system reliability for pre- and post-contingency.

균질한 재료로 설계된 댐에서 수직 수평 투수계수가 서로 다를 경우에 이 비등방성 비율이 침투수의 침투면과 신뢰성지수에 어떤 영향을 주는지를 분석하였다. 정상상태에 있는 포화-불포화 침투수 현상을 유한요소법을 사용하여 분석하였다. 수평방향 투수계수를 고정한 상태에서 수직방향 투수계수만을 줄여주는 방법으로 여러가지 다른 비등방성 비율을 해석하였다. 댐제체의 전단강도는 수정된 모어-쿨롱 파괴기준을 사용하여 결정하였다. 해석 결과에 따르면 비등방성 비율이 증가함에 따라 침투면의 거리와 신뢰성지수는 증가하는 것으로 나타났으나 댐 상하류의 전체 수두차에 따라 차이를 보였다. 이러한 침투면과 신뢰성지수의 차이는 비등방성 비율이 변동함에 따라 등가수두선도 변화하는 현상에 의한 것으로 판단된다.

This study is conducted to find out the appropriate preparing method and fermenting condition through analysis of physicochemical, microbiological, sensory evaluation of Myungtae sikhae, Korean fermented fishery food which was prepared in simplified and conventional methods. During the fermentation of sikhae at 4℃, pH was decreased gradually, but acidity was increased and salinity was steady state. In this aspect, no significant difference was revealed between sikhae prepared in simplified and conventional methods. Under fermentation at 20℃ and kept at 4℃, pH was decreased to 4.6～4.9 for 15～20 days fermentation with steady state of salinity. However, acidity was changed in conversely. The content of reducing sugar with rapidly decreasing in the beginning of fermentation was continually decreased. The propagation of microorganism in th sikhae depends on the fermentation temperature rather than the preparing methods. Generally low propagation of microorganism began to increase gradually in the sikhae fermented at 4℃ comparing to that fermented at 20℃. In the sikhae fermented at 20℃ and kept at 4℃, the total count including lactic acid bacteria, was rapidly increased after 5 days' fermentation of sikhae is dominated by Lactobacillus sp. and the unique flavor and organic acid were contributed by this flora with Leuconostoc. sp. By the sensory evaluation, the best flavor was revealed in the sikhae, prepared in simplified method fermented for 30 days at 4℃. Until 20 days, sikhae fermented at 20℃ revealed higher score than fermented at 4℃. General preference for the sikhae fermented at 4℃ for 15 days prepared by simplified method and those fermented at 20℃ for 10 days. The sikhae, fermented at 4℃, showed less difference between preparing methods and preferable acceptability after being 25 days. The best acceptability of sikhae fermented at 20℃ showed after 15～25 days. In the final conclusion, the appropriate preparing method of sikhae is to use frozen Alaska pollack with simplified method and fermented at 20℃ for 5 days and then kept at 4℃.

Although there are still controversial opinions and uncertainty on application of SiC_f/SiC composite cladding as next-generation cladding material for its great oxidation resistance in high temperature steam environment and other outstanding advantages, it cannot deny that SiC_f/SiC cladding is a potential accident tolerant fuel (ATF) cladding with high research priority and still in the engineering design stage for now. However, considering its disadvantages, such as low irradiated thermal conductivity, ductility that barely not exist, further evaluations of its in-pile behaviors are still necessary. Based on the self-developed code we recently updated, relevant thermohydraulic and mechanical models in FROBA-ATF were applied to simulate the cladding behaviors under normal and accident conditions in this paper. Even through steady-state performance analysis revealed that this kind of cladding material could greatly reduce the oxidation thickness, the thermal performance of UO₂-SiC was poor due to its low inpile thermal conductivity and creep rate. Besides, the risk of failure exists when reactor power decreased. With geometry optimization and dopant addition in pellets, the steady-state performance of UO₂-SiC was enhanced and the failure risk was reduced. The thermal and mechanical performance of the improved UO₂-SiC was further evaluated under Loss of coolant accident (LOCA) and Reactivity Initiated Accident (RIA) conditions. Transient results showed that the optimized ATF had better thermal performance, lower cladding hoop stress, and could provide more coping time under accident conditions.

This study presents a numerical simulation model of vertical ground heat exchangers, considering unsaturated hydro static ground conditions induced by the ground water table fluctuation. Heat transfer in ground and grout is modeled by a 3-D FEM transient conductive heat transfer model, where heat transfer between circulating fluid and heat exchanging pipe is treated as 1-D quasi steady state forced convective elements. To take into account the unsaturated ground condition, soil thermal conductivity and heat capacity which are dependent on the matric suction are applied to ground elements. Parametric studies considering various ground water table conditions are conducted to investigate the influence of unsaturated hydro static ground condition on the mean heat exchange rate of ground heat exchanger. Simulation results considering water table fluctuation show 60~100% of mean heat exchange rate for a saturated soil condition and 125~208% of that for a dry soil condition. Thus consideration of unsaturated soil condition is substantially recommended for more accurate design and performance evaluation for ground heat exchangers.

The performance and lighting characteristics of the LED depend on cooling condition because the power LED generates lots of heat. In this paper, the effect of the generated heat from power LED module on lighting characteristics and performance is measured and evaluated. For experiments, the transient temperature of a power LED module with cooling condition is measured. In addition, the temperature and lighting characteristics of the LED module are measured during the steady state. As a result, the cooling condition is less effective on the lighting characteristics of the LED module at rated current but the cooling condition extremely affects those of the LED module over the rated current. Because high temperature of the power LED module causes the low phosphor conversion, luminance efficiency becomes low and color temperature becomes high. When power LED module are driven over the rated condition, higher temperature is directly related to lighting characteristics and performance of the LED module rather than higher current.

In order to alleviate the negative impacts of harmonically distorted grid condition on grid-connect inverters, an optimal control design-based gain selection scheme of an LCL-filtered grid-connected inverter and its ability to compensate selective harmonics are presented in this paper. By incorporating resonant terms into the control structure in the state-space to provide infinity gain at selected frequencies, the proposed control offers an excellent steady-state response even under distorted grid voltage. The proposed control scheme is achieved by using a state feedback controller for stabilization purpose and by augmenting the resonant terms as well as intergral term into a control structure for reference tracking and harmonic compensation. Furthermore, the optimal linear quadratic control approach is adopted for choosing an optimal feedback gain to ensure an asymptotic stability of the whole system. A discrete-time full state observer is also introduced into the proposed control scheme for the purpose of reducing a total number of sensors used in the inverter system. The simulation results are given to prove the effectiveness and validity of the proposed control scheme.

An active clamp high step-up boost converter with a coupled inductor is proposed in this paper. In the proposed strategy, a coupled inductor is adopted to achieve a high voltage gain. The clamp circuit is included to achieve the zero-voltage-switching (ZVS) condition for both the main and clamp switches. A rectifier composed of a capacitor and a diode is added to reduce the voltage stress of the output rectifier diode. As a result, diodes with a low reverse-recovery time and forward voltage-drop can be utilized. Since the voltage stresses of the main and clamp switches are far below the output voltage, low-voltage-rated MOSFETs can be adopted to reduce conduction losses. Moreover, the reverse-recovery losses of the diodes are reduced due to the inherent leakage inductance of the coupled inductor. Therefore, high efficiency can be expected. Firstly, the derivation of the proposed converter is given and the operation analysis is described. Then, a steady-state performance analysis of the proposed converter is analyzed in detail. Finally, a 250 W prototype is built to verify the analysis. The measured maximum efficiency of the prototype is 95%.
