To evaluate the potential value of the major bioenergy crops which are wheat, canola, barley, corn, and sweet potato in Korea, we investigated the production of biomass and calorific value of crops, and also compared input and output factors among bioenergy crops during the cultivation period. There was difference between the biomass values in Agricultural and Forestry statistical yearbook(2006) and the one investigated in this experiment, also there was difference in crops and in species. Among the crops investigated, sweet potato(Jinhongmi, Yulmi) was shown the highest amount of biomass production and corn(Gangdaok) was shown the highest amount of the total biomass which is the total aboveground biomass at harvest. Oilseed canola which is presently a major source of bio-diesel had highest calorific value as $6,673{\sim}6,725cal\;g^{-1}$. Wheat and corn grains which are source of bio-ethanol were in the range of $3,879{\sim}4,317cal\;g^{-1}$. Gangdaok(Corn) produce the highest total calorific value in unit cultivating area among the crops as $8,263kcal\;m^{-2}$. Corn was shown that the input and output factors were the highest level among bioenergy crops during cultivation period. Sweet potato also was shown that output factor was the highest level though its input factors were average level. It is needed to be investigated more crops for collecting the higher potential value of bioenergy production further considering small land area and its effective utilization in Korea.

To investigate the feeding habits of the Kaloula borealis, the stomach contents of 52 out of 56 specimens collected around Daejung-up, Jeju Island in June 2011 were studied. The stomach contents were analyzed with the stomach flushing method. According to the results, the main preys of the Kaloula borealis were Diptera sp., Harpalidae, Formicidae and Drosophilidae. the Kaloula borealis of all sizes fed on small preys, while individuals with large SVL fed on big preys. By feeding on a large amount of food with a small number of activities, the individuals with large SVL is considered to enhance energy efficiency. In many cases, the Kaloula borealis fed on Diptera sp. or Drosophilidae, which are slow but active and capable of flying. As a result, the Kaloula borealis take the sit-and-wait form of preying rather than actively searching for food. The results of this research on feeding habits of the Kaloula borealis will provide valuable resources to protect the endangered Kaloula borealis experiencing a sharp decline in their population and to prepare plans for population preservation strategies for them.

최근 회전기계에 대한 세계적인 기술추세를 볼 때 해를 거듭할수록 더욱 정밀해지고 고속화에 대한 요구가 한층 증대되고 있으며 이러한 측면에서 여러 분야에 우수한 장점을 지니고 있는 능동적 자기베어링의 회전축계 활용에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 특히 프랑스를 중심으로 한 미국, 일본 등이 이에 대한 연구를 활발하게 수행하여 고속 공작기계 스핀들을 비롯한 고진공 펌프 및 각종 터어빈, 압축기 등에 실용화시키는 단계에 있다. 그러나 국내 관련기술에 대한 연구는 연구소, 학계를 중심으로 실험실적인 기초연구로서 부분적으로 수행하는 단계에 있으며 관련분야 활용을 위한 본격적인 연구는 수행되지 못하고 있는 실정이고 이를 실용화시키기 위한 일환으로 능동적 자기 베어링의 회전 축계를 구성하고 있는 요소기술 중 하나인 전력 증폭기의 개발이 이뤄져야 할 필요성이 있는데 본 논문에서는 네트웍 기반 전력 증폭기 개발을 시도하였다. 전력 증폭기는 크게 리니어 앰프와 스위칭 앰프로 구분된다. 리니어 앰프의 경우 회로가 간단하고 노이즈가 비교적 작다는 장점이 있지만 전력손실 및 발열이 크기 때문에 에너지 측면에서 저 효율이라는 점과 따로 방열판을 부착해야 한다는 단점을 가지고 있고, 스위칭 앰프의 경우 전력손실이 작은 반면, 회로가 비교적 복잡하고 노이즈의 발생 가능성이 높다는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에선 위 두 가지 방식을 혼합한 혼합형 전력 증폭기로 설계하였다. 또한 기존에 전력증폭기의 경우 상위 주제어기로부터 제어량을 아날로그 신호로 통신하기 때문에 발생할 수 있는 EMI 노이즈신호에 대한 대책을 세워야 하는데 본 연구를 통해 개발된 전력증폭기는 따로 보조제어기(TMS320LF2406A)를 두어 상위 주제어기에 전력증폭기의 상태값을 궤환할 수 있도록 명령 신호체계를 전체 시스템의 샘플링 시간을 고려하여 비교적 전송 속도가 빠른 CAN(Controller Area Network)으로 구축하여 주제어기와 전력 증폭기간에 양방향 통신이 가능하도록 하였다. 이로써 전력증폭기의 상태정보를 알 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 칩 설계기술의 발전으로 가격대 성능비가 우수한 DSP(TMS320LF2406A)를 이용하여 과거의 아날로그 방식의 명령신호체계를 디지털 신호체계로 바꿈으로써 네트웍을 통해 전력증폭기의 상태진단 가능성을 검증한다.

Recently, there are tendency that wireless sensor network is one of the important techniques for the future IT industry and thereby application areas in it are getting growing. Researches based on the hierarchical network topology are evaluated in good at energy efficiency in related protocols for wireless sensor network. LEACH is the best well known routing protocol for the hierarchical topology. However, there are problems in the range of message broadcasting, which should be expand into the overall network coverage, in LEACH related protocols. Thereby, this paper proposes a new clustering scheme to solve the co-shared problems in them. The basic idea of our scheme is using the inherent memory restrictions in sensor nodes. The results show that the proposed scheme could support the load balancing by distributing the clusters with a reasonable number of member nodes and thereby the network life time would be extended in about 1.8 times longer than LEACH.

The problem controlling lateral drift by the wind and the earthquake is very important in high rise buildings. But, outrigger system, generally used for residential tall buildings in Korea, has weak points with the occupancy of special space, the difficult construction and the long duration of works. On the other hand, the damper reduces story drifts of building structure by absorbing vibration energy induced by the dynamic loads and the application of damper systems is relatively simple. Also, the lateral drift control system such as outrigger system may raise the wind vibration problem of serviceability like human comfort and this problem may need another vibration control devices. Accordingly, we analyze the effect of the drift control using various dampers to substitute for outrigger system as the efficient system in residential tall buildings.

Because of the continuous growth of energy consumption, and also the tendency to site power lines and pipelines along the same routes, the close proximity of high voltage structures and metallic pipelines has become more and more frequent. Moreover, normal steady state and fault currents become higher as electric networks increase in size and power Therefore, there has been and still is a growing concern(safety of people marking contact with pipeline, risk of damage to the pipeline coating, the metal and equipment connected to pipeline, especially cathodic protection system) about possible hazards resulting from the influence of high voltage power system on metallic structures(gas pipeline, oil pipeline and water pipeline etc.). Therefore, we analyze the interference problems when the gas pipeline is buried with power cable in the same submarine tunnel. This paper present the results of the study about interference mechanism, AC corrosion limitation of safety voltage and analysis of induction voltage.

In the present study, the heat transfer characteristics of the fin-tube and PF heat exchangers and the performances of the air-conditioner are experimentally investigated. Also, Cooling Seasonal Performance Factor(CSPF) of the air-conditioner is evaluated. For the heat exchanger experiment, the heat transfer and pressure drop are obtained. For the air-conditioner experiment, the cooling capacity, input power and COP are obtained. The air-enthalpy calorimeter and the constant temperature water bath are used. As the inlet air velocity increases, the heat transfer rate and pressure drop of the heat exchanger increased. PF heat exchanger has smaller refrigerant weight and larger capacity and COP than the fin-tube heat exchanger. The performance of PF-2 heat exchanger with the squarer fin is more excellent than that of PF-1 heat exchanger with the triangler fin. Also, CSPF of the fm -tube and PF heat exchanger is evaluated.

이상기상현상의 발생횟수가 지속적으로 증가함에 따라 기상 예측은 국가 재난 관리에 중요한 요소로써 부상하고 있다. 계절예측 또한 재난관리의 한 부분으로, 농업, 에너지, 수자원 그리고 공공보건 등 다양한 분야에서 잠재적 위험을 파악하는데 도움이 되는 보조 자료로 활용이 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 ICON(ICOsahedral-Nonhydrostatic) 모델을 이용하여 2015년 여름철(JJA) 강수를 예측하였다. 2015년은 장마기간을 포함한 여름철 동안 평년대비 약 절반수준(54%)에 그치는 비가 내렸으며, 태풍으로 인한 강수량도 적어 연 강수량이 평년대비 72%로 역대 최저 3위를 기록하였다. 지역별로 보면 제주도와 남해안 지방을 제외한 대부분 지방에서 강수량이 적게 나타났으며, 수도권을 중심으로는 60% 미만의 강수량을 보였다. ICON 모델은 독일 기상청(DWD)과 막스플랑크 연구소(MPI-M)에서 공동 개발하여 현업 운영중인 전 지구 모델로 비정역학 코어를 사용한다. 전 지구를 정 20면체의 삼각형으로 격자화 시켜 모든 격자의 크기가 동일하고, 극점은 1개의 꼭짓점으로 구성되어 CFL(Courant-Friderich-Lewy) 문제가 해소될 수 있다. 또한 hybrid의 병렬구조를 사용하여 전산사용 효율성을 극대화 하는 특징이 있다. 강수의 계절 예측 수행 과정은 다음과 같다. 우선, 계절예측 자료 분석 시 활용할 ICON모델의 기후값을 생산하기 위해 30년(1980년~2009년)간의 AMIP기반 규준실험을 수행한다. 다음으로, SST와 Sea ice의 평년대비 현재 변동량을 계산하고, 이 자료는 모델 적분을 수행할 때 경계 자료로서 활용하게 된다. 계절 예측은 시간 지연기법(Time-lagged method)를 이용한 앙상블예측으로 수행하며, 예측하고자 하는 계절이 시작하기 약 1개원 이전부터 1일 간격으로 전 지구 모델의 초기자료를 다르게 선택하여 총 10개의 앙상블 멤버를 구성한다. 모델의 해상도는 수평 40km, 수직 90개 층으로 구성하였으며, 적분이 완료되면 AMIP기반 실험을 통해 모의된 기후값을 토대로 예측된 계절전망 자료의 변동성을 분석한다.

Tunnel is the most energy-consuming structure in road due to the characteristic of using artificial lighting during day and night. Therefore, tunnel lights are being replaced by LED lamp that have advantages with respect to low power consumption. The best use of social overhead capital can be expected by considering the life cycle cost, because to tunnel structures are accompanied by a series of medium-to-long-term and continuous processes of replacing auxiliary facilities. In this study, the saving effect by LCC analysis was quantitatively analyzed by replacing tunnel light sources from high-pressure sodium lamps to LED lamps. The effect of reducing the replacement cycle by increasing the life of the lamps and the resulting maintenance cost is very significant, on replacing tunnel lighting light sources with LED lamp.
