Several versions and schemes of ultra high speed relay have been studied and designed in recent twenty years. But only a few of them have got actual apiication in the power system. The relay based on the deviation of power frequency component (DPFC) can get very high reliability with ultra high speed so it has got wide application in Chinese power system. Thousands relay sets have been applied and its operation experience verifies their excellent performance. This paper summarizes the course of the development of the uItra high speed protective relay and compares the merits and defects of the main schemes which have been developed. The principle and successful pratice of the ultra high speed protection based on DPFC reIay are introduced.展开更多

These pulses are compressed resulting in the generation of ~5 ps duration,1 J pulses with 0.5 kW average power. A full characterization of this high power cryogenic amplifier, including atwavelength interferometry of the active region under >1 kW average power pump conditions, is presented. An initial demonstration of operation at 1 kW average power(1 J, 1 k Hz) is reported.展开更多

EMP emission is caused by the acceleration of hot electrons inside the target, which produce radiation across a wide band from DC to terahertz frequencies. Improved understanding and control of EMP is vital as we enter a new era of high repetition rate, high intensity lasers(e.g. the Extreme Light Infrastructure).We present recent data from the VULCAN laser facility that demonstrates how EMP can be readily and effectively reduced. Characterization of the EMP was achieved using B-dot and D-dot probes that took measurements for a range of different target and laser parameters. We demonstrate that target stalk geometry, material composition, geodesic path length and foil surface area can all play a significant role in the reduction of EMP. A combination of electromagnetic wave and 3 D particle-in-cell simulations is used to inform our conclusions about the effects of stalk geometry on EMP,providing an opportunity for comparison with existing charge separation models.展开更多
