This study investigated electrical properties and far-infrared ray emission according to the carbonizing temperature and phenol-formaldehyde (PF) resin impregnation ratio of ceramics manufactured using sawdust and rice husk. The far-infrared ray emission values and emission energy values decreased as the carbonizing temperature increased. The far-infrared ray emission values of the ceramics manufactured using a carbonizing process at $600^{\circ}C$ and a board with a PF resin impregnation ratio of 60 percent was 0.930; the emission energy presented the highest value of $4.32{\times}10w/m^2$. The electric resistance decreased as the carbonizing temperature increased. For the increase in the carbonizing temperature above $1200^{\circ}C$, ceramics was very close to a conductor due to the small resistance. The power consumption increased by the decrease of electric resistance and increase of the electric current in the case of a higher resin impregnation ratio.

우리나라에서 전기요금은 공공요금으로서 정부의 정책의지에 의하여 크게 영향을 받아왔다. 또한 전기요금수준 조정시 규제당국의 주된 관심은 요금인상이 국민경제에 미치는 영향, 특히 물가 및 무역수지에 미치는 영향에 있었다고 할 수 있다. 이러한 상황에서 전기요금변동의 국민경제적 영향에 대한 신뢰할 수 있는 분석결과는 올바른 정책수립에 필수적이라고 할 수 있다. 본고는 계산가능한 일반균형모형(Computable General Equilibrium model)을 이용하여 1993년도의 산업연관표를 토대로 전기요금의 인상이 물가, 수출입 등 거시변수에 미치는 효과 및 산업부문별 효과를 살펴본 것이다. 전기요금인상이 물가에 미치는 영향은 간단히 '전기요금인상률${\times}$물가가중치'라는 공식으로 계산해볼 수 있다. 이에 따르면 전기의 소비자물가 가중치가 14/1,000이므로 전기요금인상률이 4%일 때 소비자물가상승률은 약 0.056%가 된다. 그러나 전기가 타산업의 중간투입물로 사용되므로 전기요금인상은 타산업 산출물의 가격상승을 유발하고 다시 투입-산출관계에 의하여 추가적인 물가상승을 불러일으키게 된다. 이러한 일반균형적 효과를 모두 고려하여, 본 연구에서 계산한 소비자물가상승률은 0.083%로서 위 수치의 약 1.5배이다. 또한 본고에서는 전기요금인상에 따라 수출과 수입 모두 감소하되, 수출감소율이 수입감소율보다 크게 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 전기요금인상에 따라 전기수요가 감소하여 에너지수입이 감소하고, 그로 인해 무역수지가 개선되리라는 일부의 주장과는 매우 대조적이다. 산업별로는 전기요금인상에 따라 서비스업의 가격상승이 두드러지는 것으로 나타났는데, 이는 서비스업부문의 국내재와 수입재간의 대체가능성이 타부문에 비하여 크게 낮은 데 기인한 것으로 보인다. 본고의 결과를 전기요금이 인상되어서는 안 된다고 해석하는 것은 오류일 수 있다. 전기요금인상의 타당성은 전력산업에 대한 종합적인 미시적 분석에 기초하여야 한다.

Manufacturers have been applying several technologies that can improve the fuel economy of their cars. The regulated voltage control(RVC) system, is one of those technologies being used in passenger cars. In RVC, the voltage of an alternator is controlled depending on the electrical load demand or battery SOC, although each manufacturer differs from another in terms of detail. RVC can reduce the load of an alternator by consuming the stored energy of a battery and simultaneously generate energy. In this paper, a diesel passenger car equipped with an RVC system was tested under FTP-75 and HWFET modes to evaluate fuel economy as their initial battery SOC(100, 90, 80 and 60 %). The test results showed that the initial SOC affects fuel economy only under the FTP-75 mode. FTP-75 fuel economy of the 60% SOC was 13.2 % lower than the 100 % SOC. Also, the simultaneous consumption of the two energy sources did not appear in 60 % SOC.

최근에 고유가와 지구온난화로 인하여 에너지가 향후 인류의 50년을 좌우할 가장 큰 문제로 대두되고 있어서 지구의 모든 에너지의 근원인 태양광을 이용하는 태양광 발전은 무한한 청정 에너지로 각광받고 있다. 빛을 흡수하여 전기에너지로 변환하는 태양전지는 풍력, 수소연료전지, 조력, 바이오에탄올 등의 신재생에너지 기술 중에서 상품성은 가장 뛰어나지만 발전단가가 가장 높은 것이 단점이다. 태양광 발전단가를 줄여서 기존의 화석에너지를 이용한 발전단가와 견줄 수 있는 그리드 패러티(grid parity)를 달성하려면 태양전지 모듈의 고효율화와 동시에 저가화가 반드시 이루어져야 한다. 현재 태양광 모듈 시장의 90%는 효율이 12-16% 정도로 높은 단결정(single crystalline or monocrystalline) 실리콘이나 다결정(polycrystalline or multicrystalline) 실리콘 등의 벌크(bulk)형 결정질 실리콘 모듈이 차지하고 있으나 원재료인 실리콘 웨이퍼의 제조단가의 50%를 차지하고 있어서 저가화가 어렵다. 반면, 원료가스를 분해하여 대면적 기판에 증착하는 박막(thin-film) 실리콘 태양전지의 경우는 차세대 태양전지로 각광받고 있다. 박막 실리콘 모듈은 매우 적은 실리콘 원재료를 소비한다. 단결정이나 다결정 실리콘 웨이퍼의 두께가 $180-250\;{\mu}m$ 정도인 것에 비해서 박막 실리콘의 두께는 $0.3-3\;{\mu}m$ 수준이다. 더불어, 유리, 플라스틱 등의 저가 기판에 저온 대면적 증착이 가능하여 저가양산화에 유리하다. 박막 실리콘 모듈은 벌크형 실리콘 모듈(-0.5%/K) 대비 낮은 온도계수[비정질 실리콘(amorphous silicon; a-Si:H)의 경우 -0.2%/K]와 빛의 세기가 약한 산란광에서도 동작하여 평균발전시간이 증가하므로 외부환경에서 우수한 발전성능을 보이고 있다. 태양전지 모듈은 상온에서의 안정화 효율을 기준으로 가격이 책정되어($/$W_p$) 판매되기 때문에 벌크형 실리콘 모듈에 비해서 박막 실리콘 모듈은 가격대 성능비가 우수하다. 따라서 박막 실리콘 모듈은 벌크형 결정 실리콘 모듈의 대안으로 떠오르고 있으며, 레이저 기술을 이용하여 수려한 투광형 건물일체형(building integrated photovoltaic; BIPV) 모듈을 제작할 수 있는 장점도 있다. 이러한 장점에도 불구하고 기존의 양산화된 단일접합 비정질 실리콘 태양광 모듈은 효율이 6-7%로 낮아서 설치면적 및 설치 모듈의 증가가 성장의 걸림돌이 되고 있다. 박막 실리콘 태양전지의 고효율화를 도모하기 위해서 적층형 탄뎀셀로 양산 트렌드가 변화하고 있다. 이에 적층형 박막 실리콘 태양전지 효율의 한계 및 돌파구에 대해서 논의한다.

The energy economic analysis of the standard rural house model with PV system was performed based on annual energy demand calculation using the EnergyPlus to contribute in reducing building energy which occupies 25% of national energy consumption and in developing a low-energy & eco-friendly house model. Two types of PV system installation was considered to cover electricity demand for cooling, electric, and heating devices. For the selected house model, heating energy demand is 7 times higher than cooling energy demand. For the Case1, it is favorable to use electricity from PV system for cooling and electric devices and to sell surplus electricity. For the Case2, it is favorable to use electricity from PV system for cooling, electricity and heating devices and to sell surplus electricity. Considering the installation cost of PV system and heat pump air conditioning system, the break-even point of Case1 and Case2 are about 13 and 11 years respectively. Although the installation cost of Case2 is more expensive, Case2 provides three times more profit than Case1 after the break-even point. Because the expected average life time of the selected PV system is 25 years, Case2 is more favorable option for the given standard rural house model.

In this paper, we study on the mutual characteristics between transmitting efficiency of pulse energy and wall plug consumed power of non-thermal Plasma for removing environmental pollutive gas of coal plant. To obtain high pulse energy of our system, we used MPC(magnetic pulse compressor) of power switch and tested their characteristics by adjusting electrode length of reactor and charging voltage in capacitor. As a result, we obtained consumed power of wall plug and a compressed pulse of voltage 110kV, rising time 500ns. Impedance of load on increasing electrode length was decreased, but electrical efficiency was increased. These results indicate we can control critical voltage of pulse corona and electrical efficiency of economic cost in power plant.

The comparative experiments were conducted for single span greenhouses where cucumbers were cultivated to analyze the effect of heating between a carbon fiber electric heating element heater and an oil hot air heater in terms of the inside climate, energy consumption and plant growth. In order to analyze the effect of heating capacity, 6, 9, and 16 kW of electric powers were supplied to the electric heating element for same setting temperature of 15?. As a result, as the heating capacity increased, the number of ON-OFF cycles of the electric heating element and the temperature inside the greenhouse increased proportionally. In the comparison of two heaters, it was shown that the temperature and relative humidity distributions of the electric heating element installed greenhouse was much uniform than those of the oil hot air heater installed greenhouse. The heating energy consumptions during the heating period of 79 days were 867L for the oil hot air heater and 8,959 kWh for the electric heating element heater, and the heating costs were 607 and 403 thousand won respectively. In the electric heating element installed greenhouse, the cucumber growth was slightly better and the yield was 4.3% higher than those of the oil hot air heater installed greenhouse, but there were no statically significant difference in the cucumber growth and yield between greenhouses.
