본 연구는 조류발전 터빈의 블레이드 형상 최적화 해석 시스템 개발에 대한 사전연구의 일환으로 EDISON CFD의 프로펠러 단독성능 S/W와 SNUFOAM ShipMesh Advanced 자동격자생성기를 이용하여 조류발전 터빈 주위 유동장에 대한 수치해석을 수행하였다. TSR 조건 변화에 따라 수치해석을 수행하고 이에 대한 power, total coefficient를 동일한 조건에서 수행된 실험결과와 비교 검증하여 해석자의 신뢰도를 확인하였다. 또한, 블레이드 전체를 모델링한 full body 해석과 하나의 블레이드만을 모델링한 single body 해석 결과를 비교하여 경제적이면서 정도 높은 터빈 성능해석 프로세스를 제안하였다. 조류발전 터빈의 TSR 조건 변화에 따라 낮은 TSR 조건에서는 국부적 와동발생에 의해 $C_P$가 감소하는 것을 확인하였고 설계 TSR에서 가장 좋은 효율을 보임을 확인하였다. 이를 통해 suction side의 압력 분포, 팁 와동의 강도 등 성능개선을 위한 주요한 설계변수를 식별하였다.

$SmCoO_3$ system was investigated for their application to themoelectric materials. All specimens showed p-type semiconducting behavior and their electrical conductivity ($\sigma$), Seebeck coefficient (S) and power factor were measured at high temperature. And the effect of dopant ions on their thermoelectrical properties were also investigated. $Fe^{3+}$ ion doped into $Co^{3+}$ site enhanced the Seebeck coefficient and decreased the electrical conductivity simultaneously. The maximum Seebeck coefficient value for 60% doping case reached to 780 ${\mu}V$/K at $240^{\circ}C$. However $Fe^{3+}$ doped system cause an negative effect on power factor value. In case of the pure phase, the maximum Seebeck coefficient value reached to 290 ${\mu}V$/K at $240^{\circ}C$ and the maximum electrical conductivity was obtained 748 1/(ohm$\times$cm) at $960^{\circ}C$. As a result, the maximum power factor was obtained $1.49\times10^{-4}$ W/$mK^2$ at $550^{\circ}C$.

In this paper, a temperature variation-insensitive power-up detector for use in analog and digital integrated systems has been proposed. To provide temperature-insensitive characteristic, nMOS and pMOS voltage dividers in the proposed power-up detector are made to have zero temperature coefficient by exploiting the fact that the effective gate-source voltage of a MOS transistor can result in mutual compensation of mobility and threshold voltage for temperature independency. Comparison results using a 68-nm CMOS process indicate that the proposed power-up detector achieves as small as 4 mV voltage variation at 1.0 V power-up voltage over a temperature range of $-30^{\circ}C$ to $90^{\circ}C$, resulting in 92.6% reduction on power-up voltage variations over conventional power-up detectors.

In this study, aerodynamic characteristics of a horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT) were evaluated and discussed in terms of measured data in existing onshore wind farm. Five wind turbines (T1, T2, T3, T4 and T5) were selected, and hub-height wind speed, $U_D$, wind turbine power output, P and turbine rotational speed, ${\Omega}$ data measured from these turbines were used for evaluation. In order to obtain characteristics of axial flow induction factor, a, power coefficient, $C_p$, thrust force coefficient, $C_T$, thrust force, T and tangential flow induction factor, a', Blade Element Momentum (BEM) theory was used. According to the results obtained, during a year, probability density of turbines at a rotational speed of 16.1 rpm was determined as approximately 45%. Optimum tip speed ratio was calculated to be 7.12 for most efficient wind turbine. Maximum $C_p$ was found to be 30% corresponding to this tip speed ratio.

In this paper, a new CMOS on-chip current reference circit for memory, operational amplifiers, comparators, and data converters is proposed. The reference current is almost independent of temeprature and power-supply variations. In the proposed circuit, the current component with a positive temeprature coefficient cancels that with a negative temperature coefficient each other. While conventional curretn and voltage reference circuits require BiCMOS or bipolar process, the presented circuit can be integrated on a single chip with other digiral and analog circits using a standard CMOS process and an extra mask is not needed. The prototype is fabricated employing th esamsung 1.0um p-well double-poly double-metal CMOS process and the chip area is 300um${\times}$135 um. The proposed reference current circuit shows the temperature coefficient of 380 ppm/.deg. C with the temperature changes form 30$^{\circ}C$ to 80$^{\circ}C$, and the output variation of $\pm$ 1.4% with the supply voltage changes from 4.5 V to 5.5 V.

Abstract To investigate the effect of mechanical alloying process to thermoelectric properties of PbTe sintered body, Pb-Te mixed powder with Pb : Te : 1 : 1 composition was mechanically alloyed using tumbler-ball mill. Thermoelectric properties of the sintered body were evaluated by measuring of the Seebeck coefficient and specific electric resistivity from the room temperature to 50$0^{\circ}C$. Sintered body of only mechanically alloyed PbTe powder showed p-type behavior at the room temperature, and occurred type transition from p-type to n-type at about 30$0^{\circ}C$. PbTe sintered body which was fabricated using heat treated powder in $H_2$ atmosphere after mechanical alloying showed stable n-type behavior under 50$0^{\circ}C$. N-type PbTe sintered body fabricated by mechanical alloying process had 4 times higher power factor than that fabricated by the melt-crushing process. Application of a mechanical alloying process to fabricate of n-type PbTe thermoelectric material seemed to be useful to increase the power factor of PbTe sintered body.

A great deal of attention has been focused on the application of miniaturized piezoelectric transformers to the low power source for the microsystem. The dielectric and piezoelectric properties of Pb(Mn,W,Sb,Nb)O$_3$-Pb(Zr,Ti)O$_3$ ceramics have been investigated on different calcination(750$^{\circ}C$∼950$^{\circ}C$) and sintering(1100$^{\circ}C$∼1300$^{\circ}C$) temperatures. The perovskitic phase was formed by the solid phase reaction of the oxides. Anisotropic (k$\sub$t/k$\sub$p/) properties of electromechanical coupling coefficient and piezoelectric coefficient have been proven to be depending on processing temperatures. The value of electromechanical coupling factor of K$\sub$p/>0.51 and a mechanical quality factor of Q$\sub$m/>2000 were obtained. The piezoelectric transformer was prepared using this ceramics with the composition of Pb(Mn,W,Sb,Nb)O$_3$-Pb(Zr,Ti)O$_3$ We studied the influence of different processing temperature on the microstructure and piezoelectric properties of complex PZT-based ceramics. and the characteristic of piezoelectric transformer.
