최근에 에너지 효율적이며 신뢰성 있는 데이터 전송을 보장하기 위한 많은 라우팅 기법의 연구가 진행되고 있다. 하지만 현재까지 무선센서네트워크에서의 표준 라우팅 기법이 없는 상황에서 신뢰성을 제공하기 위한 새로운 라우팅 기법을 제안하는 것은 실용적이지 않으며 비효율적이다. 본 논문에서는 신뢰성 있는 데이터 전송을 범용적으로 보장하기 위해서 기존의 라우팅 기법의 신뢰성 및 확장성을 제공하는 모듈기법인 DRDT(Delay-based Reliable Data Transmission)를 향상시킨 ADRDT(Advenced Delay-based Reliable Data Transmission) 기법을 제안한다. ADRDT는 수신노드가 불안정한 링크상태로 인해 데이터 수신을 실패하는 경우 데이터를 오버히어링한 헬퍼노드(helper node)의 협력적인 재전송을 통해 신뢰성을 제공한다. 헬퍼노드는 수신노드의 이웃노드가 데이터를 오버히어링할 때 딜레이를 이용한 분산적 방법을 통해 동적으로 선정되며, 수신노드와의 링크상태를 고려하기 때문에 효과적으로 재전송 횟수를 감소시킨다. 제안 기법은 기존 기법과 비교해 전송 비용을 약 16.5% 감소시킨다.

In wireless sensor networks, energy is the most important consideration because the lifetime of the sensor node is limited by battery. Most of the existing energy efficient routing protocols use the minimum energy path to minimize energy consumption, which causes an unbalanced distribution of residual energy among nodes. As a result, the power of nodes on energy efficient paths is quickly depletes resulting in inactive. To solve these problems, a method to equalize the energy consumption of the nodes has been proposed, but do not consider the link error rate in the wireless environment. In this paper, we propose a uniform energy consumption of cluster-based multi-hop routing mechanism considering the residual energy and the link error rate. This mechanism reduces energy consumption caused by unnecessary retransmissions and distributes traffic evenly over the network because considering the link error rate. The simulation results compared to other mechanisms, the proposed mechanism is energy-efficient by reducing the number of retransmissions and activation time of all nodes involved in the network has been extended by using the energy balanced path.

How to determine the extent of national energy security? In this paper, we estimate it by comparative analysis of South Korea and other OECD countries in terms of energy diversity (fuel diversity). Energy security consists of 4 key factors such as availability, accessibility, acceptability, affordability. Especially the importance of accessibility can grow as local imbalance of supply and demand increases. As a proxy of the accessibility, fuel diversity can be a significant indicator to estimate a measure of energy security. In this paper, we use Shannon-Wiener index to measure energy diversity. If fuel diversity increases, the stability of energy security also should increase, because of the smoothing effect to lessen dependence on key energy sources. In 2012 Korean growth rate of H-index (energy diversity) is 18.38%, which is higher than other OECD countries. However, Korean H-index itself is 1.93, lesser than other countries. Shift from oil to coals/gas within fossil fuels has more impact on H-index than weight transition from fossil fuels to renewable energies in Korea. We conclude that more renewable energy is an effective solution to achieve higher energy diversity and ultimately higher energy security as the same as the German case.

This paper presents a novel microplatform for high power generation based on reverse electrodialysis. The ideal cation-selective membrane for power generation was realized using geometrically controlled in situ self-assembled nanoparticles. Our proposed membranes can be constructed through a simple and cost-effective process that uses microdroplet control with nanoparticles in a microchannel. Another advantage of our system is that the maximum power and energy conversion efficiency can be improved by changing the geometry of the microchannel and proper selection of the nanoparticle size and material. This proposed platform can be used to supply power sources to other microdevices and contribute to a fundamental understanding of ion transport behavior and the power generation mechanism.

To create an environment for growing ginseng sprouts, we developed a solar module that partially transmits and disperses light. A G to G type light transmission and dispersion solar module was developed using glass with a mist pattern applied, and the light dispersion effect of the developed module was confirmed through illuminance measurement. The output of one module is approximately 260 W, and the configuration consists of 48 cells in series in 4 strings. The cultivation system where the developed module will be installed was developed in the form of a container, and three units of 2.6 kW (260 W x 10 EA). The inside of the cultivation system consists of a shading screen, air conditioner, ventilator, plastic pot, etc. to create an environment for cultivating sprout ginseng. As a result of actually planting sprout ginseng, it was confirmed through verification that the plants were grown without any problems.

The application of renewable energies such as wind and solar has become an inevitable choice for many countries in order to achieve the reduction of greenhouse gases and healthy economic development. However, due to the intermittent characteristics of renewable energy, the issue with integrating a larger proportion of renewable energy into the grid becomes more prominent. A complex energy system, usually consists of two or more renewable energy sources used together to provide increased system efficiency as well as greater balance in energy supply. Compared with the power system, control and optimization of the complex energy system become more difficult in terms of modeling, operation, and planning. The main purpose of the complex energy system retrofit for samado island with microgrid system is to coordinate the operation with various distributed energy resources, energy storage systems, and power grids to ensure its reliability, while reducing the operating costs and achieving the optimal economic benefits. This paper suggests the improved complex energy system of samado island with optimal microgrid system. The results of test operation show about 12% lower SOC variation band of ESS, elimination of operation limit in PV and reduction of operation time in diesel generator.

The application in steel structures is increasing the mill sheet for the weathering steels by minimum maintenance cost in a life cycle cost. These have been collected and statistically analyzed to investigate chemical compositions, mechanical properties, weldability indices, weathering index and impact absorbed energy. From this study, although the band of dispersion in chernical compositions, mechanical properties and impact absorbed energy of the weathering steels appeared a little larger, the results revealed that these values have adequately satisfied the standard values of the Korean Standard. Furthermore, it was found that the weldability indices and the weathering index for the weathering steels have respectively satisfied the value prescribed by the Japanese Highway Specification and ASTM.

본 논문은 압력차로 인한 유체의 유동장에서 서스펜션의 입자 밀도를 분포 규명하기 위해 적용할 수 있는 Electric Impedance Tomography (EIT)의 새로운 기법에 대한 효율성을 다루고 있다. Regularized Newton-Raphson iterative method를 근간으로 inverse problem의 해를 구하는데, 이는 곧 목적 함수(object function)를 몇 가지의 제한조건(constraints) 하에서 최소화시키는 과정이라 할 수 있다. 한편, 관련 forward problem은 유한요소법(FEM)을 이용하여 해결하며, 기존의 연구와는 달리 선형 형상 함수(linear shape function)를 이용하여 전도도가 연속적인 물성치로 유동장에 분포되어 있는 것으로 가정하였다. 여러 경우의 test run에 대한 결과는 본 논문에서 적용한 방법론의 타당성을 보여 주고 있다. 태양에너지의 추출을 위해 직접촉식 열교환기가 종종 이용되고 있는데, 본 연구는 열교환기 내부의 분산 유체에 대한 해석에 일조를 할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The bonded state polarizabilities of ions in the alkali halides are estimated by using the Seitz and Ruffa (SR) energy level analysis relation. The effective number of electrons $(N_{eff})$ in the Slater-Kirkwood formula are used for all members of an isoelectronic sequence. The effective dispersion coefficients $(C_6^{eff})$ are calculated by the use of the empirical formula (J. Chem. Phys. 1991, 95, 1852) estimating $(N_{eff})$ values to reproduce the experimental $(C_6^{eff})$ for atom-atom (or molecule) interactions. In the framework of the T-Rittner model the model potential is constructed and used to calculate the values of dissociation energy and dipole moment. The results obtained in the present study are in good agreement with the experiment one.

냉동공조용 열교환기의 종류, 특징, 기술개발 동향, 전망 등에 대해 요약한 결과를 정리하면 다 음과 같다. (1) 암모니아 냉매가 다시 각광을 받음에 따라 응축기의 형식도 크게 변하고 있다. 이러한 변화로 핀 튜브를 사용한 횡형, 금속용착형 플레이트 식, 플레이트 핀 식의 응축기들이 암모니아 용으로 적용되기 시작하고 있다. (2) 암모니아 냉동장치는 현재에도 많이 적용되고 있으나 대부분 중앙 집중식 천정증발기나 강관 제 유닛 쿨러를 사용하고 있다. 그러나 최근 기술의 발전과 더불어 알루미늄 관 알루미늄 핀 증발기가 개발됨에 따라 암모니아 냉매도 프레온 냉매와 마찬가지로 건식, 분산식으로 적용되게 되었으며 이 분야의 기술개발이 요청된다. (3) 열교환기의 연구 방향은 에너지 절약, 공간 절약에 기여하면서도 성능향상을 이룩할 수 있는 기술개발, 그리고 소음이 적은 기기 제조 기술이 요망된다. 또한, 착상에 대한 기술적 대책, 근 본적 대책에 대한 대비가 요망되며, 기존 냉매에 대한 대체 냉매용 최적 열교환기에 대한 적극적 연구가 요망된다. (4) 제한된 에너지 자원, 지구환경, 열악한 우리나라의 에너지 사정 등을 고려할 때 냉동공조용 열교환기의 성능 향상에 대한 국가와 일반 소비자들의 기대는 더욱 증가하리라 예상된다. 이들 요구를 만족시키기 위해서는 냉동공조용 열교환기의 성능 향상, 열교환기의 제작에 필요한 자 원의 절약, 생산성 향상, 설치장소와 관련한 효율적인 공간활용, 열교환기 자체 소음의 최소화 등의 방면에 착실한 연구 개발이 있어야 할 것이다.
