In order to verify the efficiency or availability and stability of photovoltaic(PV) generation systems, huge system apparatuses are needed, in general, in which an actual size of solar panel, a type of converter system and some amount of load facilities should be installed in a particular location. It is also hardly possible to compare a Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) control scheme with others under the same weather and load conditions in an actual PV generation system. The only and a possible way to bring above-mentioned problem to be solved is to realize a transient simulation scheme for PV generation systems using real weather conditions such as insolation and surface temperature of solar cell.

Firstly, VI characteristic equation of a solar cell is developed as an empirical formula and reconstructed in the RTDS system, then the real data of weather conditions are interfaced to the analogue inputs of the RTDS. The outcomes of the simulation demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed simulation scheme in this paper. The results shows that the cost effective verifying for the efficiency or availability and stability of PV generation systems and the comparison research of various control schemes like MPPT under the same real weather conditions are possible.

Light dimming is based on adjusting the voltage which gets to the lamp. Light dimming has been possible for many decades by using adjustable power resistors and adjustable transformers. The power electronics have proceeded quietly since 1960. Between 1960-1970 thyristors and triacs came to market.

This study presents an effective variable forgetting factor method based on fuzzy logic to suppress frequency droop in extended integral load frequency control. The performance of the extended integral control is greatly dependent on the decaying factor. For an optimal or near optimal performance, it is necessary that the decaying factor as well as the feedback gains should be changed very quickly in response to changes in the system dynamics. However, because of its time-varing characteristic, the optimal decaying factor is difficult to be selected analytically. By adopting fuzzy set theory, the decaying factor can be determined quickly to respond to the variation of the feedback signals. This study builds a fuzzy rule base with use of the change of frequency and its rate as inputs. The computer simulation has been conducted for the single machine system. The simulation results show that the proposed fuzzy 1o81c based controller yields more improved control performance than the conventional PI controller.

TCP/IP는 internet의 표준 통신규약으로 오랜 기간동안 많은 응용 프로그램의 기본 프로토콜로 사용되고 있으며, 다양한 통신 환경에서도 상당히 안정적인 동작을 하도록 고안된 방식이다. 그러나 데이터 전송의 안정성에 비중을 두어 고안된 방식으로 전력시스템 등의 산업용 기기 제어와 같은 실시간 특성이 요구되는 응용에는 다소 부적합한 면이 없지 않다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 인터넷을 통한 원격 제어가 가능하도록 TCP/IP를 기반으로 하되, 실시간 제어를 고려한 응용계층에서 동작하는 데이터 전송 규약을 제안한다.

This paper presents a series of simulation results of transient stability on SCOPF operated power system whose transmission capabilities are limited by voltage stability. Three steps of voltage security guidelines, 5[%], 7[%], 10[%] are introduced to increase power transfer from generation centers to load center and observed the effects of voltage guidelines to transient stability for three kinds of load level(peak, medium, off-peak). As a result, dynamic characteristics weren't affected by the voltage security limits in model system, but became worse for the off-peak level than peak case, and sustain oscillations are observed for the all load level. This gives us some intitutions for the development and applications of security limits to use SCOPF program in open electric market.

An accurate digital distance relaying algorithm which is immune to the combined reactance effect of the fault resistance and the load current is proposed. The algorithm can estimate adaptively the impedance to a fault point independent of the fault resistance. To compensate the apparent impedance, this algorithm uses iteratively the angle of an impedance deviation vector improved step by step. The impedance correction algorithm for ground faults uses a current distribution factor to compensate mutual coupling effect.

The purpose of this study is to introduce a new spacer damper for the bundle transmission lines network. It has the special design, the main characteristics and advantage of this new kind of spacer damper. An Existing spacer damper with bolted clamps, although widely used, is a method of connection with certain disadvantage both as regards assembly on the conductor and in the course of time. Even if tightening torque is correctly applied by using bolt with share head or torque wrench during working time, the aeolian vibration could involve untightening during life time, so the cable can move into the Jaws and wire's breakage appear. To salve this problems, France, Japan and other countries had developed a spacer damper with an automatic system through many years. This new spacer damper is an original automatic clamping device (beltless) which does not require special tool for its installation. This device prevents clamp unlocking problems, ensures a simple installation and ensures a reliable-tightening during life time. Therefore, it is necessary to localize this boltless spacer damper with automate clamping device.

The EMTDC models of the Cheju-Haenam HVDC system which are the pre-stage models for developing RTDS-based models and digital controllers are also introduced.

The power system automation, especially the substation automation is a major issue. so it has been widely studied each country in the world. Since the substation system includes lots of measuring devices. a lot of data and system information are transmitted to operators. The measured values usually have the error that results from the communication process, and it can degrade the reliability of estimated values. So. the detection and correction of measured values at a substation are important factors for substation automation. In this paper, we study the detection and col of measured values at the domestic 154kV/2 distribution substation of double bus structure study will be useful for expected economic dispatch measuring device's inspection and corr management by SCADA system operation, substation automation.

Occasionally, equipment in a distribution system fails due to damage from weather, vandalism, or other causes. In addition, it is recommended practice to have some way in which maintenance or replacement of every element in a system can be performed without causing lengthy interruption of electrical service to the customers it feeds. Thus, alternate sources, paths, and configurations of service must be planned so that both failures and maintenance do not affect customer service beyond a reasonable amount. In some cases, planning for alternate routes of service during equipment outages or emergencies -- will be the major aspect influencing selection of a feeder's capacity, type of route, or layout. We want to know the relationship between molt-dividing multi-connection and distribution reliability for contingency support considerations.

본 연구에서는 쌍방향 시장에서 혼잡 비용의 처리 방법을 제시한다. 이 방법은 쌍방향 시장에서 시장의 참여자들은 혼잡을 고려하지 않고 서로 계약을 하며 만일 혼잡이 발생한다면 Independent System Operator(ISO)가 혼잡을 해결한다는 가정을 전제로 한다. ISO는 혼잡이 발생 시 조정 입찰(adjustment bidding)을 통해 전력을 매매하여 혼잡을 해소한다. 이때 ISO는 전력의 매매 비용을 최소화하도록 하는데 이 매매 비용을 혼잡 비용이라고 부른다. 그러므로 쌍방향 시장에서는 이 혼잡 비용을 시장의 참여자에게 공평하게 배분하는 방식이 중요한 문제이다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 여러 가지 방법이 제시되었으며 송전 제약에 대한 라그랑지 승수를 이용하는 방식도 그 중의 하나이다. 그러나 이 방식은 연속 혼잡이 발생하면 참여자에게 혼잡 비용을 정확히 배분할 수 없다. 여기서 연속 혼잡이란 혼잡 선로에 의해 다른 선로에 혼잡이 발생하는 경우를 말한다. 본 연구에서는 직류 조류를 이용한 다단계 방법을 제시하며 이 방법은 연속 혼잡을 단계별로 처리하여 기존의 방법의 문제점을 해결하였고 혼잡 비용이 참여자에게 공평히 배분되도록 하였다.
