Electron Energy Distribution Function(EEDF) were treasured In Radio-Frequency Inductively Coupled Plasma(RFlCP) using a probe rrethocl Measurerrents were conducted in argon discharge for pressure from 10[mTorr] to 4O[mTorr] and input rf power from 100[W] to 600[W] and flow rate from 3[sccm] to 12[sccm]. Spatial distribution of electron energy distribution function were measured for discharge with same aspoct ratio (R/L=2). Electron energy distribution function strongly depended on both pressure and power. Electron energy distribution function increased with increasing flow rate. Radial distribution of the electron energy distribution function were peaked in the plasma center. Normal distribution of the electron energy distribution function were peaked in the center between quartz plate and substrate. From the results, we can find out the generation mechanism of Radio Frequency Inductively Coupled Plasma. And these results contribute the application of a simple Inductively Coupled Plasma(ICP).a(ICP).

Korea's energy consumption has been constantly increasing. Final energy consumption was increased by anannual average of 2.9% compared to 2010. The consumption of all energy sources except for its oil was increased during the same time. While electric demand has increased coal consumption increased rapidly. Therefore, calorfic value and carbon emission factor development can improve the quality of Korea's greenhouse gas inventory. Calorific value is the amount of heat generated while burning coal. Caloric value is one of the most important factors in the development of carbon emission factors. Calorific value is used as the basis for the analysis of the various energy statistics. This study has calculated the sub-bituminous coal's calorfic value by the data received from domestic coal-fired power plants. Calorofic value's trend analysis period is the year of 2011~2015. Through analyzing the carbon content it was calculated the carbon emission factor. The sub-bituminous coal's uncertainty analysis was performed using a Monte Carlo simulation.

The power to gas (P2G) is one of the energy storage technologies that can increase the storage period and storage capacity compared to the existing battery type. One of P2G technologies produces hydrogen by decomposing water from renewable energy (electricity) and the other produces $CH_4$ by reacting hydrogen with $CO_2$. The objective of this study is the reaction of $CO_2$ methanation which synthesized methane by reacting carbon dioxide and hydrogen. The effect of $CO_2$ conversion and $CH_4$ selectivity on reaction temperature, pressure, and methane contents over 40% Ni catalyst was mainly investigated throughout this study. As a result, the activity of this catalyst appeared to be the highest in $CH_4$ yield at around $400^{\circ}C$ and the selectivity of $CH_4$ increased with increasing reaction pressure. The methane content was not significantly influenced below 3% of all componets. As the space velocity increases from 10,000 to 30,000/hr, the $CO_2$ conversion rate tends to decrease.

Although the installation of droplet protection screen (DPS) is known to prevent droplet transmission, there is still a lack of knowledge in effectiveness of DPS installation to block the airborne transmission. In this study, the prevention ability of DPS against airborne transmission was evaluated according to the DPS height. When the DPS was not installed, the maximum concentration of PM1.0 at the location opposite to infected person was 35% of that at the infected person location. When the DPS was installed, the DPS effectively prevented the airborne transmission, consequently approximately 7% of generated particles were measured at the opposite location from particle generation position (infected person location). The prevention ability of DPS increased with DPS height, the maximum prevention efficiency of 95.1% was obtained when the DPS height was 900mm. Moreover, the speed of airborne transmission was delayed by installation of DPS, and the delay time increased with DPS height.

최근 기후변화로 인한 위기가 인류의 생존을 위협하면서 전 지구적으로 기후변화에 대응하기 위한 탄소 중립 대책을 모색하고 있으며, 지속가능한 신재생에너지에 대해 주목하고 있다. 산업통상자원부는 2034년까지 총 발전량 중 신재생에너지의 비율을 25.8%까지 증가시키는 것을 목표로 신재생에너지의 발전 비율을 증가시키기 위한 다양한 노력을 기울이고 있다. 특히, 신재생에너지 중 가장 많은 비중을 차지하고 있는 태양광 발전은 비교적 광범위한 부지를 필요로 하고 있으며, 환경 및 지형적 영향이 크게 작용하는 만큼 발전 시설 부지 선정 및 운용 계획을 위한 면밀한 분석이 필수적이다. 그러나, 태양광 발전 활용 계획을 수립하기 위해 고려할 수 있는 지상 관측 일사량 및 일조량 데이터는 상당히 제한적이며 관측 밀도가 조밀하지 않다는 한계점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 천리안위성의 후속으로 발사된 천리안2위성의 산출물인 일사량 데이터를 활용하여 한반도 영역에서의 일사량에 대한 시·공간적 분석을 수행하였으며, 이를 기반으로 각 지역적 특성을 파악하고, 토지 피복 유형에 따른 태양광 발전의 효율 정도를 분석·평가하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 계측 지역 및 미계측 지역에서의 시공간적인 태양광 에너지의 효율성에 대한 정보를 제공함에 따라 태양광 발전을 위한 관련 시설물들의 최적 설치 위치 및 규모 등에 대한 설계 기준 마련에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

최근 들어 기후변화와 함께, 화재 발생이 증가함에 따라 인명피해와 경제적 피해가 늘고 있다. 화재 발생시 인명 피해를 줄여주는 소방시설 중 경보설비와 유도등설비는 위험 상황시 경보와 함께 동선을 유도하는 유도등을 보고 재실자들이 안전한 공간으로 신속하게 대피할 수 있도록 하는 소방설비 이다. 이중에서 유도등설비는 화재발생 상황에서 매우 중요한 역할을 맡고 있다. 특히 복잡한 동선을 가지고 있는 복합건물 및 지하철, 고층건축물에 신속한 대피 유도에 필요한 설비이다. 그러나, 화재 초기에 신속한 대피를 해야 하는데 5분도 되지 않아 화재로 인해 발생한 가스는 검은 연기로 유도등의 역할과 효과를 저해하는 현상을 가져온다. 즉 유도등의 녹색빛이 보이지 않는다. 이는 저시력자 또는 시력에 장애를 가지고 있는 자들은 더욱더 유도등을 확인하고 대피 하기란 쉽지 않게 된다. 이런 단점이 있는 기존의 유도등에 IoT(Internet of Things)와 함께 증강현실 이미지를 스마트기기에 활성화 한다면, 진한 검은연기로 인한 빛의 가림으로 인한 유도장애에 대해서 개선 할 수 있을 거라 생각되어, 변류기의 전류 감지를 시작으로 그 신호를 스마트기기에 녹색의 유도 이미지를 활성화하여 골든타임에 대피가 신속하도록 설비를 구현하여 그 가능성을 확인하였다.

This paper proposes design space exploration methodology of many-core processors including multimedia specific instructions to support high-performance and low power ultrasound imaging for portable devices. To explore the impact of multimedia instructions, we compare programs using multimedia instructions and baseline programs with a same many-core processor in terms of execution time, energy efficiency, and area efficiency. Experimental results using a $256{\times}256$ ultrasound image indicate that programs using multimedia instructions achieve 3.16 times of execution time, 8.13 times of energy efficiency, and 3.16 times of area efficiency over the baseline programs, respectively. Likewise, programs using multimedia instructions outperform the baseline programs using a $240{\times}320$ image (2.16 times of execution time, 4.04 times of energy efficiency, 2.16 times of area efficiency) as well as using a $240{\times}400$ image (2.25 times of execution time, 4.34 times of energy efficiency, 2.25 times of area efficiency). In addition, we explore optimal PE architecture of many-core processors including multimedia instructions by varying the number of PEs and memory size.

Wave field measurements were made over a period of 18 days to study the spatial distribution of incident wave on seaweed tarm field around Gumil-up Sea, Wando, Korea. These measured data were compared with data from the Geomun-do ocean weather/wave observation buoy. A numerical simulation model that combined the offshore design wave with the seasonal normal incoming wave was used to study the incident wave distribution surrounding a seaweed farm. The results are summarized as follows. (1) On-site wave measurements showed that the major relationship between maximum and significant wave height was $H_{max}=1.6H_{1/3}$. (2) Offshore incident wave energy reaching the coast was greatly influenced by the wind direction. A north wind reduced the incident wave energy and a south wind increased it. (3) The calculated maximum wave height under the design wave boundany conditions was in the range of 4~5 m and the reduction in the incident wave height ratio ranged from approximately 38.1% to 47.6% at Gumil-up Sea. Under normal wave conditions, the maximum wave heights were 3.6~4.0 m in summer and 2.3~2.7 m in winter while the reduction in the incident wave height ratio was about 41.8% to 49.1%. (4) The sea state in the southern area of Gumil-up was the most affected by ocean waves, whereas the sea state in the northern area was very stable. The significant wave ratio in the south was about six times that in the north.

This study deals with shotcrete reinforcing performance according to the amount of synthetic fiber (PP fiber) and proper evaluation method. The shotcrete compressive strength, flexural strength and flexural toughness were tested by setting the mixing amounts of steel fiber ($37.0kg/m^3$) and synthetic fiber (PP fiber) as parameters ($5.0kg/m^3$, $7.0kg/m^3$ and $9.0kg/m^3$). Particularly, circular panel flexural toughness test (Road and Traffic Authority, RTA) was performed to evaluate the shotcrete energy absorption capacity. As a result, the compressive strength and the bending strength of the steel fiber reinforced shotcrete were large, but the flexural toughness of the synthetic fibe (PP fiber) reinforced shotcrete was large. Therefore, synthetic fiber (PP fiber) reinforced shotcrete is considered to have a reinforcing effect comparable to that of steel fiber reinforced shotcrete. Analysis of the relationship between the flexural toughness and the energy absorption capacity of synthetic fiber (PP fiber) reinforced shotcrete revealed that the energy absorbing ability is exhibited at a flexural toughness lower than the allowable standard (3.0 MPa). (Class A: 2.55 MPa = 202J, Class B: 2.72 MPa = 282J, Class C: 3.07 MPa = 403J). As a result of this study, it can be concluded that the actual shotcrete support performance can be evaluated by evaluating the support performance of the shotcrete measured at less than the allowable standard (3.0 MPa) at the actual tunnel site.
