The operation of electric automatic windows is used in harsh environments, and the energy density decreases as charging and discharging are repeated, and as soundness deteriorates due to damage to the internal separator, the vehicle's mileage decreases and the charging speed slows down, so about 5 to 10 Batteries that have been used for about a year are classified as waste batteries, and for this reason, as the risk of battery fire and explosion increases, it is essential to diagnose batteries and estimate SOH. Estimation of current battery SOH is a very important content, and it evaluates the state of the battery by measuring the time, temperature, and voltage required while repeatedly charging and discharging the battery. There are disadvantages. In this paper, measurement of discharge capacity (C-rate) using a waste battery of a Tesla car in order to predict SOH estimation of a lithium-ion battery. A Support Vector Machine (SVM), one of the machine models, was applied using the data measured from the waste battery.

The performance characteristics of high rate discharge LiSOCl2 cells are highly affected by carbon cathode. During the cell discharge, SOCl2 reduction takes place at the porous carbon cathode, resulting in the precipitation of reaction products, mainly LiCl, within the pores of the substrate. This leads to eventual passivation of the cathode surface and resulting cell failure. To improve the cathode performance, we ex-amined discharge reactions of cathodes (half-cell, 50 mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$ constant current) with various surface density and thickness. The carbon cathode with the optimum capacity for our application is surface density 0.04 g/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and thickness 1.4mm carbon. The carbon cathode with surface density 0.04g/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and thickness 1.4 mm exhibits decreased polarization, increased discharge duration time and capacity (Ah/$\textrm{cm}^2$) as compared with that with surface density 0.04g/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and thickness 0.8mm. The porosities analyses on the two carbon cathodes show that total pore volume of the carbon cathode with thickness 1.4 mm is larger than that with thickness 0.8mm. The increased volume of mesopores (0.05$\mu$m~0.5$\mu$m) and macropores(>0.5$\mu$m) is ob-served with the carbon cathode with thickness 1.4mm as compared with that with thickness 0.8mm, which can be related with the observed capacity increase. We observed LiCl crystals, cubic crystallites and fused, plate-like aggregates, and some elemental S as discharge products by EDS and XRD.

When an EV is parked for a long period time, the battery capacity naturally decreases due to selfdischarge. Therefore, this effect must be considered for the accurate measurement of the state of charge of EV battery. Battery selfdischarge simulations using the design of experiments among computer simulation methods are compared with experimental data for Ni/MH batteries for electric vehicles. The motivation is to predict the selfdischarge rate of the battery for electric vehicle at all temperature conditions and standing time when electric vehicle could be operated. We developed a general equation representing the seudischarge rate of the electric vehicle battery using design of experiments, and the equation is determined by temperature and standing time of the battery. We selected Ni/MH battery, 12 V-95 Ah, for pure electric vehicle for this study. ID develop the equation using design of experiments we selected temperature range of $-20^{\circ}~30^{\circ}C$ and standing time of 1 day$\~15$ days. We conducted several selfdischarge tests of Ni/MH battery to verify the integrity of the equation. The results showed that the computation values were in good agreement with experimental data.

This study investigates a CFD modeling of the charge-discharge behavior due to heat generation during charge-discharge cycles of a Li-ion secondary battery(LIB). Present LIB system adopted a current-density equation, heat and mass transfer governing equations upon the 1-dimensional system to the thickness direction for the rectangular pouch configuration. According to the 3-kinds of the charge-discharge current densities of 1C($17.5A/m^2$), 3C($52.5A/m^2$) and 5C($87.5A/m^2$) subject to a 3 V of cut-off voltage, a constant-temperature system at 298 K and three different heat generating systems were analyzed with comparison. Battery capacity decreases with increment of charge-discharge densities not only at the constant-temperature system but also at the heat-generating system. The time for charge-discharge cycles increases at the heat-generating system compare to the constant-temperature system. These trends are considered that the increase of temperature due to heat generation causes the decrement of equilibrium potential of electrodes and the increment of diffusivity of Li ions. Furthermore, cooling effects were discussed in order to control the influence of heat generation due to charge-discharge behavior of a Li-ion secondary battery.

This study aimed to explore the potential for food-industry application of atmospheric pressure dielectric barrier discharge plasma (atmospheric pressure DBD plasma) as a non-thermal sterilization technology for microorganism. The effects of the key parameters such as power, oxygen ratio, exposure time and distance on Escherichia coli KCCM 21052 sterilization by the atmospheric pressure DBD plasma treatment were investigated. The experimental results revealed that increasing the power, exposure time or oxygen ratio and decreasing the exposure distance led to an improvement in the sterilization efficiency of E. coli. Furthermore, the atmospheric pressure DBD plasma (1.0 kW power, 1.0% (v/v) $O_2$, 5 min exposure time and 20 mm exposure distance) treatment was very effective for the sterilization of food-borne pathogenic bacteria. The sterilization rate of E. coli, Bacillus cereus KCCM 40935, Bacillus subtilis KCCM 12027, Bacillus thuringiensis KCCM 11429 and Bacillus atrophaeus KCCM 11314 were 72.3%, 74.6%, 88.5%, 84.7% and 91.3%, respectively.

The following results are from the test of semi-gel electrolyte to store energy efficiently and use advanced VRLA batteries by photovoltaic and wind power generation. Semi-Gel electrolyte with Silica 5% became Gel after 1 and half hour. It shows it is the most suitable time that the electrolyte can be absorbed into the separator and active material of plate to be gel. The test also says that semi-gel electrolyte shows the much better performance for low-rate discharge and the liquid electrolyte is good for high-rate discharge because the reaction rate of gel electrolyte is slower than liquid one for high-rate discharge performance. The test with DOD10% and DOD100% says that 5% silica electrolyte shows much better performance for life efficiency than liquid one. Because semi-gel electrolyte increase the efficiency of gas recombination at the chemical reaction of VRLA battery and it makes minimizing the reduction of electrolyte. Using the 5% silica electrolyte in order to improve the stroage efficiency and life performance for photovoltic and wind power generation, it causes improving by 4.8% for DOD100% and 20% for DOD10%.

KSTAR (Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research) 장치는 차세대 에너지원 중의 하나인 핵융합로를 위한 과학기술 기반을 마련하기 위해 개발된 중형급 토카막 실험장치로서 토카막 운전 영역의 확장과 안정성 확보, 정상상태 운전 도달을 위한 방법 연구, 최적화된 플라즈마 상태와 연속 운전 실현 등을 주요 목표로 하고 있다. 이를 위해 핵융합 반응에 의한 점화조건과 가까운 상태로 플라즈마를 가열해주어야 하며, 토카막 장치의 저항가열 이외에도 외부에서 추가 가열이 반드시 필요하다. 중성 입자빔 입사 장치는 현재 토카막에서 사용되고 있는 가열장치 중 가장 신뢰성있는 추가 가열 장치라 할 수 있으며 한국 원자력연구원에서는 1997년부터 KSTAR 토카막 실험 장치에 사용될 중성 입자빔 입사 장치를 개발해왔었다. 중성빔 입사 장치는 크게 이온원, 진공함, 열량계, 진공 펌프, 중성화 장치, 이온덤프와 전자석으로 이루어져 있으며, 이중 이온원은 중성빔의 성능을 좌우하는 핵심적인 장치라 할 수 있다. 최근 한국원자력연구원에서는 2 MW 중성 입자빔 입사장치용 이온원 개발을 완료하여 KSTAR 토카막 장치에 설치하였으며, 2013년 현재 KSTAR에는 총 두 개의 이온원이 장착되어 최대 약 3 MW 이상의 중수소 중성 입자빔을 입사하여 KSTAR 토카막 실험의 H-mode 달성과 운전 시나리오 연구에 많은 기여를 하고 있다. 한국원자력연구원에서 최초로 개발된 이온원은 미국 TFTR 장치에서 사용되었던 US LPIS (Long Pulse Ion Source)를 기본으로 하여 국내 개발을 수행하였다. 이 온원은 크게 플라즈마를 발생시키는 플라즈마 발생부와 발생된 이온을 인출 및 가속시키는 가속부로 구성되는데, 개발과정에서 가장 먼저 KSTAR의 장주기 운전에 적합하도록 플라즈마 방전부와 가속부의 냉각회로를 요구되는 열부하에 맞게 설계 수정하였다. 그 후 플라즈마 방전부는 방전 시간과 안정성, 플라즈마 밀도의 균일도, 정격 운전, 방전 효율 등을 고려하여 수정 보완하며 개발을 진행하여왔다. 가속부의 경우 국내 제작기술의 한계를 극복하기 위해 빔 인출그리드를 TFTR의 US LPIS 모델의 슬릿형 그리드 타입에서 원형 인출구 타입으로 변경하였으며, 이후 가속 전극의 고전압 내전력 문제, 빔 인출 전류와 전력, 인출 빔의 광학적 질(quality), 빔 인출 시간 동안의 안정성 등을 위해 그리드의 크기와 간격, 모양 등을 변경하여 개발을 수 행하여 왔다. 이 논문은 한국원자력연구원에서 개발이 진행되어 왔던 이온원들을 시간적으로 되짚어 보면서 현재까지의 성과와 문제점, 그리고 앞으로의 개발 방향에 대해 논의하고자 한다.

Porous carbon aerogel-silica gel composite materials were used as the electrodes of capacitive deionization(CDI) process, which were prepared by a paste rolling method. The electrochemical parameters such at current values, coulombs af a function of cycle, and CDI efficiencies were investigated for 10th and 100th cycles in 1,000ppm NaCl solution. Carbon aerogel-silica gel composite electrodes showed good wet-ability and higher mechanical strengths even under the NaCl solutions as well. In our experimented runs, all of the composite electrodes also are showed good cycle-ability without destroy of active material during cycles and decreased manufacturing times by $50\%$. Conclusively, the adding of silica gel powder to carbon aerogel leads to the effective performance of CDI process due to effective utilization of active materials by increasing the wet-ability and mechanical hardness.

In the field of defense, one-shot devices such as missiles are stored for a long period of time after they are manufactured, so it is essential to predict their storage life. A study was conducted to find the shelf life of a Li-ion battery used in one-shot devices. To do this, a Li-ion battery that has been used in weapon systems for more than 5 years was secured. A non-functional test was performed on the battery to check for external changes or failures. After the non-functional test, a discharge test was performed to measure the performance after storing it. Through the test, the performance was checked, including the initial charging voltage, discharge time, and battery temperature, and the trend of the change was identified. An F-test, One-way ANOVA, and regression analysis were performed to verify the aging, and the shelf life of the battery was estimated by an approximation formula that was derived through a regression analysis. As a result of the ANOVA, the p-value was less than the reference value of 0.05, and the performance of the battery decreased by more than 15% after a certain period of time. This change is assumed to result from the change in physical properties of the lithium polymer cell.
