The thermal control device for the periodic working component combined solid-liquid phase change material (PCM) with heat pipes is designed and numerically studied. Due to high latent heat and retaining constant temperature during melting process the component peak temperature, not withstanding small radiator size, is reduced. The warm-up heater power consumption to keep the minimum allowed temperature is also cut down since the accumulated thermal energy is released through the solidification. The thermal buffer mass (TBM) made of Al can give the similar effect but the mass and power consumption of warm-up heater should increase compared to PCM. The amount of PCM can be optimized depending on the component heat dissipation and on/off duty time.

현재 국내에서 사용되고 있는 신호등용 전구는 전량 해외에서 수입되는 백열전구로써, 낮은 발광효율($8.0{\sim}8.4lm/W$)과 짧은 수명(약 4,000 hours)으로, 지방 자치단체의 경우 전기에너지의 과소비와 과중한 전력요금 부담 잦은 유지보수로 관리비용이 증가하고 교통환경을 악화시키는 원인이 되고 있으며, 국가적으로는 첨두부하 증가, 귀중한 에너지 낭비 및 석유, 가스 등 발전용 화석연료 사용증가에 따른 환경오염을 유발하고 있다. LED(Light Emitting Diode. 발광다이오드)는 발광 특성상 열 발생이 적고, 특정 파장대의 단색광을 발광하는 광원으로써 전력소비가 매우 작고, 긴 수명, 양호한 환경 특성을 가지고 있다. 옥외에 노출되고, 점등이 길고 소등 횟수가 많으며 단색광을 필요로 하는 신호등에 적합한 것으로 평가되고 있다. 그러나 LED 신호등은 발광 원리 및 발광 방식이 기존의 전구식과 달라 현재 규정된 시험방법으로 직접 평가가 불가능하다. 따라서 우리나라의 경우 LED 제조기술은 세계적인 수준이나 LED 신호등에 대한 기술개발 및 보급은 현실적으로 어려운 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 국내 보급환경 구축을 위해 LED 신호등에 대한 시제품의 특성을 장시간의 옥외 시험을 통해 우리나라 환경 특성에 적합한 LED 교통 신호등 규격을 연구하고자 한다.

Recent interest in the worldwide energy to increase, and energy savings of the energy for effective operation of the IT technology there is a demand. By using a low-power LED energy efficient energy use worldwide for a variety of studies have been conducted. In Korea, 20-30% of the domestic electricity consumption corresponding to the illumination in order to conserve energy used by various sensors associated with illumination control studies are underway. That is the next generation of energy began to pay attention to the LED light source, LED and Arduino In this paper, an ultrasonic sensor to control and want to maximize the energy efficiency of the management. Paper, the user is directly operating the separate controller that controls the LED light, instead of being recognized through human body detection LED light on / off to control the experiment and study verified. In this paper, we develop an interface that also allows them to maximize the efficiency of energy management and efficiency, accompanied by expansion of commercialization can be achieved.

In this study, the DIAlux program was simulated for the optimal conditions of daylight and artificial light sources(LED) in a glass greenhouse. From the results of the daylight simulation, the optimal design conditions for the glass greenhouse were established, which had a $90^{\circ}$ installation angle and a higher transmittance of glass. In the case of growing lettuce in a glass greenhouse, it was compared with artificial light sources, the artificial light source (LED) was used to produce a power consumption effect of 41%. These results suggest that lettuce be grown in an energy saving glass greenhouse.

Previous low-energy time synchronization methods have mainly focused on reducing the number of transmission or reception packets. However, this paper proposes a method that reduces the percentage of time a node has to be awake (the duty cycle), assuming that a periodic sleep-wake cycle is used to conserve energy. Based on our experience with actual WSN devices, a system model is proposed, and the potential performance of the proposed method, with different parameter values, is analyzed. To further demonstrate the feasibility of our method, experiments were conducted using nine WSN devices in a $3{\times}3$ grid network topology. The results show the average synchronization error is 107.57 $\mu{s}$ in duty cycle 5% and synchronization period 10 sec, and 130 $\mu{s}$ in duty cycle 2.5% and synchronization period 20 sec.

Nowadays, climate change becomes serious problem in all around country. Especially because of global warming problem, every country is suffered from various natural disasters. To prevent these changes, every industry are keep requiring the increase in energy efficiency. Recently, in the regulation of CSCI (climate savers computing initiate), the efficiency of server power supply should meet the demand of 94% at 50% load condition by 2010, which is called platinum level. Hence, server power system has been dramatically developed with the various technique for the high efficiency of it. Among those technique, hold up time extension technique has received wide attention and has been researched for a long time. In this paper, technical trend of hold up time extension circuit will be covered for the high efficiency, high power density server power supply.

A time-interpolation technique has been applied to the conventional FLASH analog-to-digital converter (ADC) to increase a number of quantization level, thus it reduces not only a power dissipation, but also minimize an active chip area. In this work, we demonstrated 5-bit ADC which has 31 quantization levels consisting of 16 conventional voltage-mode comparators and 15 time-mode comparators. As a result, we have achieved about 48.4% voltage-mode comparator reductions. The ADC is fabricated in a 14nm fin Field-effect transistor (FinFET) process with an active die area of 0.0024 mm2 while consuming 0.82 mW through a 0.8 V supply. At 400-MS/s conversion rate, the ADC performs 28.03 dB SNDR (4.36 ENOB) at 21MHz input frequency.

This paper presents low-power asynchronous barrel shifters for variable length encoders and decoders useful in portable applications using multimedia standards. Our approach is to create multi-level asynchronous barrel shifters optimized for the skewed shift control statistics often found in these codecs. For common shifts, data passes through one level, whereas for rare shifts, data passes though multiple levels. We compare our optimized designs with the straightforward asynchronous and synchronous designs. Both pre- and Post-layout HSPICE simulation results indicate that, compared to their synchronous counterparts, our designs provide over a 40% savings in average energy consumption for a given average performance.

WBAN(Wireless Body Area Network) is a Wireless Sensor Network for supporting various applications around body within 2~3m which consists of medical and non-medical device. MAC in WBAN environment should satisfy requirements such as low power consumption, various transmission rate, QoS, and duty-cycle, efficiently distribute frequency band, be strong at traffic load and save energy. This paper proposes AQ(Adaptive Queuing) MAC superframe structure for efficient energy use, considering the increase of traffic load. The simulation result also show that transmission rate and average MAC delay rate is improved comparing IEEE 802.15.4 MAC with AQ MAC.

In this paper, a cooling system of high-power propulsion motor with Energy Saving System(ESS) is described. Normally, the cooling system for ship consists of fresh water pump, sea water pump, 3-way valve and cooler. In the cooling system, F.W(Fresh Water) and S.W(Sea Water) pump is operated on rated rpm, and the 3-way valve is controlled for preventing over-cooling. So, the consumption power of pump's motor is changed according to a sea water temperature. In the proposed cooling system, F.W. pump and S.W pump is controlled by inverter, and it is can be reduced the consumption power. Also, it is proved with simulation.
