Recent use of electricity during peak hours electricity supply-demand imbalance is inevitable that limit power use force. Therefore, in this paper, a circuit of parallel power operation equipment for peak power reduction which saves the power to electricity storage device during the non-peak power time and supply from the storage power during the expected power shortages time is designed Through this circuitry, the peak power of the commercial power supply with the parallel operation and connection of the commercial power supply and the power supply of the inverter from electricity storage that is a key feature of PRS(Peak power Reduction System) can be controlled. In addition, in order to increase the efficiency, a Transless Power Circuit DC-AC inverter is developed. Moreover, a variable impedance control is applied to the storage of electric power of an Uninterruptible Power Supply associated with a commercial power source.

Gas-to-Solid (GTS) technology is composed of three stages: hydrate production, transportation, and regasification. For efficient operation of regasification plants, it is crucial to predict the temperature and flow rate of hot water necessary to dissociate the hydrate pellets. Dissociated gas escaping from the pellet surface, when in contact with hot water, will alter the flow field and consequently alter the heat transfer rate. Methane hydrate pellet dissociation characteristics in low- to moderatetemperature water were investigated by taking images of the changes in the hydrate pellets' shapes in a pressurized reactor and measuring the total time required for complete melting of the pellets. The effects of water temperature, hydrate conversion rate, and flow speed on the dissociation completion time were also investigated. Bubbling gas released from the pellet surface induced a secondary flow that enhanced the heat transfer rate and thus decreased the dissociation time. It was also found that a considerable flow rate was needed to significantly decrease the dissociation time.

Since the morden targets are of high speed and getting quiet in both active and passive mode, the necessities of developing advanced SONAR system capable of performing target motion analysis (TMA) and target classification are evident. In order to develop such a system, the scattering mechanism of complex bodies needs to be, some extent, fully understood and modeled. In this paper, MOving Spread Target(MOST) signal simulation model is presented and discussed. The model is based on the highlight distribution method, and simulates pulse elongation of spread target, doppler effect due to kinematics of the target as well as SONAR platform, and distribution target strength of each highlight point (HL) with directivity. The model can be used in developing and evaluating advanced SONAR system through system simulation, and can also be used in the development of target state estimation algorithm.

Recently, many countries have been developing new protocols to improve the performance of tactical ad hoc networks for implementing NCW (Network Centric Warfare). Combat net radio (CNR) networks are the most important communication infra for the ground forces such as infantry of Army. U.S. Army had developed MIL-STD-188-220D that is the Interoperability Standard for DMTDs (Digital Messages Transfer Device Subsystems) for voice and data communication in CNR. MIL-STD-188-220D is a candidate for MAC protocol of TMMR which is next radio and has a few constraints to used in TMMR. NAD (Network Access Delay) defined in MIL-STD-188-220D needs time synchronization to avoid collision. However, it is difficult for time synchronization to fit in multi-hop environment. We suggest the enhanced DAP (Deterministic Adaptable Priority)-NAD to prevent conflicts and decrease delays in multi-hop CNR. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme improves the performance in multi-hop CNR networks.

Recently, GPU cloud computing technology applying GPU(Graphics Processing Unit) devices to virtual machines is widely used in the cloud environment. In a cloud environment, GPU devices assigned to virtual machines can perform operations faster than CPUs through massively parallel processing, which can provide many benefits when operating high-performance computing services in a variety of fields in a cloud environment. In a cloud environment, a GPU device can help improve the performance of a virtual machine, but the virtual machine scheduler, which is based on the CPU usage time of a virtual machine, does not take into account GPU device usage time, affecting the performance of other virtual machines. In this paper, we test and analyze the performance degradation of other virtual machines due to the virtual machine that performs GPGPU(General-Purpose computing on Graphics Processing Units) task in the direct path based GPU virtualization environment, which is often used when assigning GPUs to virtual machines in cloud environments. Then to solve this problem, we propose a GPGPU task management method for a virtual machine.

Currently used DLC(Direct Load Control) algorithm is only focused on ON/OFF load control not concerning about reliving participated customer's inconvenience and load priority. Therefore, that is a major obstacle to attract customer participating in demand response program. To overcome the above defects, the authors represent direct load control algorithm using priority based dynamic programming. the proposed algorithm is that participant customer send E-mail to DLC center about priority of load before executing DLC, then DLC algorithm decide which load to be OFF by using priority and off time constraint of the load. By using dynamic programming based on the order of priority for DLC algorithm it is possible to maximize participating customer's satisfaction and it will help to attract more customer's participating in demand response program.

In solar photovoltaic systems, power generation is greatly affected by the weather conditions, so it is essential to predict solar energy for stable load operation. Therefore, data on weather conditions are needed as inputs to machine learning algorithms for solar energy prediction. In this paper, we use 15 kinds of weather data such as the precipitation accumulated during the 3 hours of the surface, upward and downward longwave radiation average, upward and downward shortwave radiation average, the temperature during the past 3 hours at 2 m above from the ground and temperature from the ground surface as input data to the algorithm. We analyzed the statistical characteristics and correlations of weather data and extracted the downward and upward shortwave radiation averages as a major elements of a feature vector with high correlation of 70% or more with solar energy.

A small unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV), which uses a propulsion system consisting of electric motor and battery, weighs less than 8 kg, capable of hand launch. Because it is easy to operate and able to transmit image information in real time, the use of small UAV has been increasing. However, very few analysis methods or analysis results on flight performance of the small UAV have been known so far. In this paper, the performance analysis methods of a small UAV, which is manufactured to study an electric powered UAV, are suggested and their results are achieved. Aerodynamic data of the vehicle are obtained by making use of gliding performance from actual flight test, and required thrust and required power by flight speed are predicted. In addition, the methods to predict range and endurance in case of using battery as power source are suggested and their results are achieved.

위성의 상태를 모니터링하고 임무수행 준비 및 결과를 분석하기 위해 위성에서는 주기적으로 텔레메트리 프레임을 생성하여 지상으로 전송한다. 텔레메트리 프레임을 통해 많은 데이터가 전송될수록 정확한 위성의 상태 분석이 가능하고 위성 운용을 용이하게 할 수 있다. 그러나 위성에서 지상으로 전송할 수 있는 텔레메트리의 전송속도는 하드웨어의 성능에 따라 제한되며, 특히 저궤도 위성의 경우에는 지상과 교신이 가능한 시간이 짧다는 제약으로 인해 한정된 시간 안에 정해진 전송속도로 보낼 수 있는 데이터의 양에는 한계가 있다. 이러한 제약조건 하에서 최대한 많은 정보를 효율적으로 전송할 수 있도록 위성의 텔레메트리를 생성할 때 비트 정보들을 모아 하나의 바이트로 묶어서 텔레메트리 크기를 최소화하는 방법을 이용한다. 위성비행소프트웨어는 태스크 스케쥴링, 열제어, 전력제어, 자세제어, 원격명령처리, 원격측정데이터 처리 등의 기능별로 모듈화 되어있다. 각 모듈마다 텔레메트리로 전송되는 데이터들이 존재하고 비트 정보들을 모으는 기능도 해당하는 모듈에서 각각 담당한다. 따라서 각 모듈들이 독립적이지 못하고 텔레메트리 처리를 담당하는 모듈과 다른 모듈들 간의 커플링(coupling)이 존재하게 되어 하나의 텔레메트리 데이터 변경이 여러 모듈에 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 논문에서는 모듈들 간의 커플링을 최소화하고 텔레메트리의 변경사항이 위성비행소프트웨어 코드 자체에는 영향을 주지 않도록 하기위한 데이터베이스 테이블을 이용한 텔레메트리 처리 방안에 대하여 설명한다.
