The application of multicopters using a battery is limited by the short endurance due to the low energy density. A propeller is one of crucial components that determine the performance of the multicopter. In the present study, a systematic method for predicting the endurance of multicopters is described. Propeller performance database are constructed using the data from UIUC Propeller Data Site. Using the 'trendline' function of MS Excel software, the performance of the commercial propellers are represented as a function of polynomials. The multicopter's endurance is computed iteratively using Peukert's Law and considering the voltage drop effect. We evaluated the endurance of multicopters that use commercial propellers. The endurance of the multicopter was within the range of 28 min. to 36 min. It is expected that the present method can be utilized for optimal propeller selection for the given multicopters.

The use of VPI impregnated mica tape as high voltage insulation for large rotating electric machines requires a careful balance of processes and materials to obtain the desired electrical, mechanical and thermal characteristics. The stator insulation systems such as epoxy bonded high voltage mica tape have been produced for many years. One such system employing an epoxy and anhydride impregnating resin developed by Hyundai Heavy Industries, Co. (hereafter, HHI), to satisfy customer requests for an epoxy bonded insulation system. HHI applies the following electrical and thermal evaluations such as dielectric breakdown, voltage endurance, dissipation factor vs. temperature, isothermal weight loss, and so on. A detailed laboratory evaluation can describe specific physical limitations for an insulation system and permit development of long-term operation guidelines that permit full utilization of the proposed system. HHI has found these evaluations very helpful in qualifying insulation system for the repair of both large motors and generators.

ZnO varistor ceramics added a glass-frit 0.03 $wt\%$ were fabricated with variation of sintering temperature. The sintering temperature and time were $1125^{\circ}C\~1200^{\circ}C$ and 2 h. The average grain sizes increased and the varistor voltage decreased with increasing the sintering temperature. The values of the specimen sintered at $1200^{\circ}C$ were $23.7\;{\mu}m$ and 329 V, respectively. The leakage current of all specimens was less than $1\;{\mu}A$ at DC $82\%$ of varistor voltage. The clamping voltage ratio of the specimen sintered at $1175^{\circ}C$ was 1.37. The endurance of surge current and the deviation of varistor voltage of the specimen sintered at $1175^{\circ}C$ were 6400 $A/cm^2$ and ${\Delta}-2.81\%$, respectively. After the High Temperature Load Test(HTLT) at $85^{\circ}C$ for 1000 h, the specimen sintered at $1175^{\circ}C$ showed the lowest deviation of varistor voltage of ${\Delta}-1.92\%$.

Electrostatic discharge characteristics were studied by connecting human body model (HBM) with tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) device in this research. TMR samples were converted into electrical equivalent circuit with HBM and it was simulated utilizing PSPICE. Discharge characteristics were observed by changing the component values of the junction model in this equivalent circuit. The results show that resistance and capacitance of the TMR junction were determinative components that dominate the sensitivity of the electrostatic discharge(ESD). Reducing the resistance oi the junction area and lead line is more profitable to increase the recording density rather than increasing the capacitance to improve the endurance for ESD events. Endurance at DC state was performed by checking breakdown and failure voltages for applied DC voltage. HBM voltage that a TMR device could endure was estimated when the DC failure voltage was regarded as the HBM failure voltage.

We fabricated and tested a resistive type superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) based on BSCCO-2212 bulk coils. Each bulk coils of the SFCL was designed to have the rated voltage of 220 $V_{rms}$ and the critical current($I_C$) of 320$\sim$340 A at 77K. Ten components in series, make the SFCL having the rated voltage of 2.2 $kV_{rms}$ for equal quench test. The fault test was conducted at an input voltage of 2.2 $kV_{rms}$ and fault current of 25 $kA_{rms}$. In addition, we examined the endurance characteristics for all bulk coils through repeat fault test. Test results shows that the SFCL successfully limited the fault current of 25$kA_{rms}$ to below $7{\sim}8kA_{p}$ within minimum 1.1msec after fault occurred. All bulk coils quenched together upon faults and shared the rated voltage evenly. The endurance test results show an equivalent among repeat fault test. During the quench process, average temperature of all bulk coils did not exceed 250 K, and the SFCL was totally safe during the whole operation.

In the present study, we conducted the research on the high efficiency propulsion system for the development of long-endurance UAV with an electric propulsion system. For the long endurance UAV, fair aerodynamic characteristics with the high efficiency of the propulsion system is required because the flight power and the duration time of the long-endurance UAV vary greatly depending on the efficiency of the propulsion system. Therefore, in this study, the tracking program which records the performance of motor, propeller was developed because of their wide variation in the efficiency depending on the using condition, and records from the existing flight test program were utilized to check the accuracy of the program we had developed. For the development of future long-endurance solar UAV, we confirmed the applied voltage of motor, the optimal rotation of propeller and the gear ratio of reduction gear in order to get the highest efficiency on the propulsion system at the optimal flying condition.

Electrical characteristics of split-gate flash EEPROM with triple polysilicon is investigated in terms of effects of floating gate and offset gate. In order to search for t the effects of offset gate on programming characteristics, threshold voltage and drain current are studied with variation of control gate voltage. The programming process is believed to depend on vertical and horizontal electric field as well as offset gate length. The erase and program threshold voltage are found to be almost constant with variation of control gate voltage above 12V, while endurance test indicates degradation of program threshold voltage. With increase of offset gate length, program threshold voltage becomes smaller and the drain source voltage just after program under constant control gate voltage becomes higher.

In recent years, Vacuum Circuit Breaker(VCB) has been widely used to enhance the confidence and at the same time to ease maintenance of waterworks requipment as the power supply breaker of high voltage motor. When making and breaking the sources as VCB the powerful surge voltage, repetitive reignition phenomenon resulted from exceeding inter-pole endurance voltage of CB, has occured. It has transmitted to the winding of motor stator through the cable, and this surge voltage is repeated over and over again before finishing making and breaking action of CB according to cumulation of repetitive reignition surge, motor has become burned in the end. This paper describes surge voltage occuring in making and breaking of VCB as circuit parameters by transient phenonenon and examines closely the variance of peak values, wavefront-length, wavetail-length, when changing inductance and capacitance of a cable. Finally we will expect to protect motor winding breakdown from surge voltage through parallel connection of suitable-size in the motor.
