In recent years, better quality in power electric services is being required with the development of information industries and the improvement of living standards. Also, the small scaled dispersed storage and generation (DSG) systems are being interconnected with the distribution systems and customers by the influence of the recent issues such as deregulation and global environmental problems in power system. Under these circumstances, it is very important to maintain the customer voltages within allowable limits for the distribution system which is located at the most sensitive part in the power system. To overcome these problems, this paper shows the basic concepts of FRIENDS which is considered as one of the power delivery system in the near future and also presents an evaluation method on the impacts of customer voltages by operation models of FRIENDS. The FRIENDS can change the system configuration in a flexible manner by using the static switches and offer the different power qualities in power services through the power quality control centers which play the most important role in FRIENDS. Numerical examples are shown in order to indicate the efficiency of the proposed method.

Due to steady increase of electric power demand and decrease of load factor, the economic and reasonable operation of electric power system is necessary. Because of this reason, dispersed battery energy storage system(BESS) with fast response is receiving attractive attention. With these considerations, 20 kVA BESS is designed and tested to investigate the possibility of BESS application to power system. This paper describes the design specifications of simulator and test results. BESS is composed of batteries, conversion equipments, interconnecting equipments to power system, and control parts of the system. The inverter of BESS can carry out two functions as charger and discharger. Also, it can operate as a VAR compensator by four quadrant operation. Since this system is designed as a simulator of MW system, the conceptual design of MW system is possible by using the test result of test system The study of BESS is preliminary stage for the future MW class BESS.

본 연구는 Chemical hydride 형태의 수소발생제를 포함한 액체연료를 이용한 신개념의 알칼라인 연료전지의 특성을 분석하였다. Chemical hydride는 연료전지의 수소공급원으로써 사용될 수 있으며, 본 연구팀은 KOH 전해질에 수소발생제인 Sodium Borohydride ($NaBH_4$)를 첨가하여 제조된 액체연료를 알칼라인 연료전지에 공급함으서 상온에서 매운 우수한 전기 화학적 성능결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 이때 음극 찰물질로 $ZrCr_{0.8}Ni_{1.2}$ 수소저장합금이 사용되었으며, 양극은 방수처리된 카본지 위에 분산된 Pt/C 가 사용되었고, air가 latm으로 양극에 공급되었다. 음극에 대한 XRD 분석결과 음극에서의 산화에 의해 Sodium Borohydride ($NaBH_4$)가 분해되어 수소가 발생되며, 연속적으로 액체연료가 주입되어도 전지가 작동하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이때 에너지밀도는 6,000 Ah/kg (for $NaBH_4$ or $KBH_4$)이다.

The energy consumption problem in wireless sensor networks is investigated. The problem is to expend as little energy as possible receiving and transmitting data, because of constrained battery. In this paper, in order to extend the lifetime of the network, we proposed a location-based clustering algorithm for wireless sensor network with skewed-topology. The proposed algorithm is to deploy multiple child nodes at the sink to avoid bottleneck near the sink and to save energy. Proposed algorithm can reduce control traffic overhead by creating a dynamic cluster. We have evaluated the performance of our clustering algorithm through an analysis and a simulation. We compare our algorithm's performance to the best known centralized algorithm, and demonstrate that it achieves a good performance in terms of the life time.

In this paper, we propose a probability method to determine minimum capacity of energy storage system(ESS) for Micro Grid(MG). Because of high capital cost of ESS, it's very important to determine optimal capacity of ESS and for stable operation of MG and we should determine minimum capacity of ESS. The proposed method has abilities to consider forced outage rate of generators and intermittent of non-dispatchable generators and minimum capacity make MG keep energy balancing by oneself.

The application of silica/carbon black dual phase fillers to natural rubber(NR) compound was investigated. When the amounts of filler content were restricted to 60phr, the optimum ratio of dual phase fillers were 25phr/35phr of silica/carbon black. It was found that these new fillers give better overall performance in comparison with carbon black in tear strength, crack resistance, and cutting resistance. Also the thermal degradation resistance of NR vulcanizates which were filled with dual phase fillers was better than that of the carbon black. Dual phase fillers filled NR vulcanizates showed better viscoelastic properties, like tan${\delta}$, for the wet skid resistance and rolling resistance of motor vehicle tires.

The repeated blasting vibration, which is induced commonly in NATM excavation site, can cause a severe damage to the nearby facilities. It is known that the most effective method for reducing blasting vibration includes the use of electronic detonator, deck charge and change of cut method, and so forth. In order to analyze the effect of blasting vibration reduction, in this study, three-dimensional FDM (Finite Difference Method) program FLAC3D has been used for reflecting the blasting hole, delayed time and charging amount. Also the numerical analysis has been performed by applying a dynamic load to each blasting hole. The cut method has been applied with several methods, such as V-cut and Double-drilled parallel cut, which are common in tunnel construction sites. Also, the field test blasting has been carried out in order to compare the measured data with results of numerical analysis. It was shown that the numerical analysis and the field measurement coincide well.

Recently, research on mobile edge services has been conducted to handle computationally intensive and latency-sensitive tasks occurring in wireless networks. However, MEC, which is fixed on the ground, cannot flexibly cope with situations where task processing requests increase sharply, such as commuting time. To solve this problem, a technology that provides edge services using UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) has emerged. Unlike ground MEC servers, UAVs have limited battery capacity, so it is necessary to optimize energy efficiency through load balancing between UAV MEC servers. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a load balancing technique with consideration of the energy state of UAVs and the mobility of vehicles. The proposed technique is composed of task offloading scheme using genetic algorithm and task migration scheme using Q-learning. To evaluate the performance of the proposed technique, experiments were conducted with varying mobility speed and number of vehicles, and performance was analyzed in terms of load variance, energy consumption, communication overhead, and delay constraint satisfaction rate.

기작기반의 역학적 모델과 자료기반의 딥러닝 모델은 수질예측에 다양하게 적용되고 있으나, 각각의 모델은 고유한 구조와 가정으로 인해 장·단점을 가지고 있다. 특히, 딥러닝 모델은 우수한 예측 성능에도 불구하고 훈련자료가 부족한 경우 오차와 과적합에 따른 분산(variance) 문제를 야기하며, 기작기반 모델과 달리 물리법칙이 결여된 예측 결과를 생산할 수 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 주요 상수원인 댐 저수지를 대상으로 수심별 수온과 탁도를 예측하기 위해 기작기반과 자료기반 모델의 장점을 융합한 PGDL(Process-Guided Deep Learninig) 모델을 개발하고, 물리적 법칙 만족도와 예측 성능을 평가하는데 있다. PGDL 모델 개발에 사용된 기작기반 및 자료기반 모델은 각각 CE-QUAL-W2와 순환 신경망 딥러닝 모델인 LSTM(Long Short-Term Memory) 모델이다. 각 모델은 2020년 1월부터 12월까지 소양강댐 댐 앞의 K-water 자동측정망 지점에서 실측한 수온과 탁도 자료를 이용하여 각각 보정하고 훈련하였다. 수온 및 탁도 예측을 위한 PGDL 모델의 주요 알고리즘은 LSTM 모델의 목적함수(또는 손실함수)에 실측값과 예측값의 오차항 이외에 역학적 모델의 에너지 및 질량 수지 항을 제약 조건에 추가하여 예측결과가 물리적 보존법칙을 만족하지 않는 경우 penalty를 부가하여 매개변수를 최적화시켰다. 또한, 자료 부족에 따른 LSTM 모델의 예측성능 저하 문제를 극복하기 위해 보정되지 않은 역학적 모델의 모의 결과를 모델의 훈련자료로 사용하는 pre-training 기법을 활용하여 실측자료 비율에 따른 모델의 예측성능을 평가하였다. 연구결과, PGDL 모델은 저수지 수온과 탁도 예측에 있어서 경계조건을 통한 에너지와 질량 변화와 저수지 내 수온 및 탁도 증감에 따른 공간적 에너지와 질량 변화의 일치도에 있어서 LSTM보다 우수하였다. 또한 역학적 모델 결과를 LSTM 모델의 훈련자료의 일부로 사용한 PGDL 모델은 적은 양의 실측자료를 사용하여도 CE-QUAL-W2와 LSTM 보다 우수한 예측 성능을 보였다. 연구결과는 다차원의 역학적 수리수질 모델과 자료기반 딥러닝 모델의 장점을 결합한 새로운 모델링 기술의 적용 가능성을 보여주며, 자료기반 모델의 훈련자료 부족에 따른 예측 성능 저하 문제를 극복하기 위해 역학적 모델이 유용하게 활용될 수 있음을 시사한다.

Participation in power trading using surplus power is considered a business model active in the domestic energy trade market, but it is limited only if the legal requirements according to the type, capacity, and use of the facilities to be applied for are satisfied. The hydrogen residential demonstration model presented in this paper includes solar power, energy storage system (ESS), fuel cell, and water electrolysis facilities in electrical facilities for private use with low-voltage power receiving system. The concept of operations strategy for this model focuses on securing the energy self-sufficiency ratio of the entire system, securing economic feasibility through the optimal operation module installed in the energy management system (EMS), and securing the stability of the internal power balancing issue during the stand-alone mode. An electric facility configuration method of a hydrogen residential complex demonstrated to achieve this operational goal has a structure in which individual energy sources are electrically connected to the main bus, and ESS is also directly connected to the main bus instead of a renewable connection type to perform charging/discharging operation for energy balancing management in the complex. If surplus power exists after scheduling, participation in power trading through reverse transmission parallel operation can be considered to solve the energy balancing problem and ensure profitability. Consequentially, this paper reviews the legal regulations on participation in electric power trading using surplus power from hydrogen residential models that can produce and consume power, gas, and thermal energy including hybrid distributed power sources, and suggests action plans.
