Almost of industrial measuring instruments usually are equipped only with serial communication devices. In order to connect these instruments to internet, we implement an embedded translator. This device has the hardware components composed of one WAN port, two LAN ports, and two UARTs, and functions as a communication translator between serial and internet communication. it also provides web-based monitoring function that is absent from existing serial-to-ethernet converter. The hardware is implemented using the KS8695 network processor which s an ARM922T as processor core. We have installed the boa web server and utilized the CGI function for internet-based remote control, added the IP sharing function which allows the network with private IP addresses to access the internet, and developed a serial-to-ethernet translation program. Finally, we show an application example of the developed translator that remotely monitors the solar energy production system.

최근 화합물반도체를 이용한 집광형 고효율 태양전지가 차세대 태양전지로서 주목을 받기 시작하였다. GaAs를 주축으로 하는 고신뢰성 고효율 태양전지는 높은 가격으로 인해 응용이 제한되어왔으나, 고집광 기술을 접목하여 태양전지 재료 사용을 수 백배 이상 줄이면서도 동시에 효율을 극도로 향상시킴으로써 차세대 태양전지로 활발히 개발되고 있다. GaAs 기판을 이용한 다중접합의 태양전지는 n-type GaAs 기판 위에 버퍼 층, GaInP back surface field 층, GaAs p-n 접합, AlInP 창층, GaAs p-n 접합의 터널접합층, 상부전지로서 GaInP p-n 접합, AlInP 창층 순서로 epi-taxial structure를 형성하고 전극과 무반사막을 구성한다. 이러한 태양전지의 효율을 결정하는 요인 중, 상부 전극은 전기적 및 광학적 손실을 일으키는 원인으로써 최소화되어야 한다. 그런데 이러한 이중접합 화합물 태양전지에 집광한 태양광을 조사할 경우, 태양광을 집광한 만큼 전류가 증가하게 되며 증가한 전류가 전극에 흐르면서 전기적 효율 손실을 유발하게 된다. 따라서, 집광형 화합물 반도체 태양전지의 전극에 의한 손실에 대한 연구가 선행되어 저항에서 손실되는 전력을 최소화하여야만 전기적 손실이 낮은 고집광 태양전지 개발이 가능하다. 본 논문에서는 먼저 전극 두께가 0.5${\mu}m$인 GaInP/GaAs 이중접합 태양전지 (효율 25.5% : AM1.5G)의 집광시 효율 변화에 대해서 연구하였다. 이후 이러한 효율 변화가 전극 구조의 최적화에 의해서 개선 될 수 있는지를 삼차원 모의실험을 통해서 확인하였다. 모의실험에는 Crosslight 사의 APSYS를 사용하였고, material parameter를 보정하여 실제 실험 결과에 근사 시킨 후 전극 구조에 대한 최적화를 하였다.

It is essential to give a fatal damage to the enemy force by using prompt and accurate fire in order to overcome the lack of artillery force. During the artillery fire operations, minimizing the firing time will secure the adapt ability in tactical operation. In this paper, we developed a mathematical model to schedule the artillery fire on the multiple targets to decrease total fire operation time. To design a program to describe a real firing situation, we consider many possible circumstances of changes such as commander's intention, firing constraints, target priority, and contingency plan to make a fire plan in an artillery unit. In order to work out the target sequencing problem, MIP is developed and the optimum solution is obtained by using ILOG OPL. If this analytical model is applied to a field artillery unit, it will improve the efficiency of the artillery fire force operations.

전 세계적으로 기후변화 및 다양한 삶의 패턴이 변화되면서 예상되는 자원의 부족을 해결하기 위한 많은 노력이 진행되고 있다. 특히 범 국가적으로 지속가능한 자원안보 실현을 위한 적정 솔루션을 제공하고 자원의 연계에 따른 효율성과 효과성을 극대화하기 위해 물, 에너지, 식량의 연계를 통한 기술을 개발하고 적용하고 있으나, 아직까지 국가단위의 대규모 사례는 부족하며, Community Scale의 형태로 진행되고 있는 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 국내에서의 물, 에너지, 식량의 연계 기술을 도출하기 위해 국외에서 진행되고 있는 기술에 대한 현황과 효과를 분석하여 국내의 적용방안에 대해 분석하고자 한다. 국외의 사례로는 프랑스 전력공사(EDF)에서는 2000년 초반 기존의 규정대로 물공급을 지속하면 발전에 어려움이 발생하는 것을 인식하여, 주요 농업 관개시설과 물절약협약을 체결하고 물절약에 따른 금전적 보상대책을 마련하였다. 이를 통해 물 절약의 30%는 기존의 관행과 관리방식의 변화에 의해 이루어졌고, 약 70%는 효율적 물 사용기술을 통해 절감효과를 도출하였다. 또한 관개용수와 발전량의 효율적 물사용을 통해 3억2,500만$m^3$에서 2억3,500만$m^3$ 으로의 절감효과를 달성할 수 있었다. 오스틴 수도회사, 텍사스 가수 서비스, 오스틴 에너지 회사 등 텍사스의 3개회사가 상호 협약을 통해 다가구 에너지 및 물효율 프로그램을 개발하고 자원을 효율적으로 관리할 수 있는 주택을 개조하여, 연간 470만 kWh의 전기와 3,785만 리터의 물을 절약하고 있다. 베트남 Red강의 경우 베트남의 근대화 및 산업화를 위해 많은 물과 전기가 필요함에 따라 물사용량을 규제하였고 이로 인해 농작물 재배를 고려하여 장기적이고 다방면적인 전략을 도출하였다. 정유회사 CHEVRON에서는 미국 캘리포니아에서 오일 1배럴을 생산할 때마다 10배럴의 물을 생산하여 오일생산 과정에 이용하며 $182km^2$ 면적의 농장에 농업용수를 공급할 수 있었다. 특히, California 오일 추출과정에서 물과 오일을 분리하고 그 과정에서 발생한 물을 재이용하기 위하여 수처리과정을 통하여 매일 $2,650m^3$의 물 생산하게 되었다. 이러한 외국의 사례들을 바탕으로 하여 국내에서도 다양한 형태의 넥서스 기술을 접목하여 미래에 예측되는 자원 부족을 선제적으로 대응하는 방안을 수립할 때이다.

To prevent the low heating effect of heating system caused by the high sheet resistance of CVD graphene, multi-layered graphene was laminated to implement a Transparent plane heating system with good optical properties of low-resistance. Low-resistance plane heating system implemented by $300{\times}400{\times}5mm$ heating plane laminated multi-layered CVD graphene film and PWM control system to drive efficient power. A plane resistance value of $85.5{\Omega}/sq$ was measured on average for 4-layer CVD graphene film used as a heating plane. Thus, the transfer by thermal film as the method of implementing low-resistance CVD graphene is reasonable. The experimental results of heat test show that an average heat-rise rate in low-resistance, transperent plane heating system using CVD graphene is $10^{\circ}C/min$ and has an optical transmittance rate of 86.44%. Therefore, the proposed heating system is applicable to large window glass and vehicle heating window-shild-glass.

The industrial ecology indicators(IEI) for Yeosu Industrial Park were developed using eco-efficiency indicator(EEI). The key factors for the creation of IEI were two parts. One part is the value of the products which is selected as the total production value, the amount of ethylene production, the amount of light oil production instead of the total sales volume for Yeosu Industrial Park, since the currency exchange and the price of raw materials varied every year. The other part is the environmental burden. The electric consumption, the industrial water consumption, and the amount of discharged waste water are all officially opened to the public, were used in the calculation. Based on the value for the year of 2004, the IEI value for 2006 became worse to 0.954, but, was expected to be 1.153, a 15% improvement, for 2015 if the current EIP project is successfully performed.

It is not easy to implement an energy management system in an industrial complex where small businesses are scattered, so the method of collecting and adjusting energy-related data is mainly used. FEMS is a system that responds to the demand for a paradigm shift from a passive energy management method to an active energy management method using IoT and ICT. In this study, a factory energy management system(FEMS) is designed for small and medium-sized enterprises located in chemical industrial complexes. Efficiency was confirmed by reviewing energy saving measures and efficiencies through FEMS for the electric energy of facilities built in each company. The cost effectiveness of FEMS is created when it is utilized by responsible and empowered personnel within the business processes of the host company. Therefore, it is necessary to utilize EMS that can be applied to the planning, support, operation and evaluation, and continuous improvement of the energy management system to achieve corporate organization and energy management goals.
