This paper presents the temperature-pressure characteristics of a new SMH actuator using a Peltier module. The SMH actuator is characterized by its small size, low weight, noiseless operation, and compliance similar to that of the human body. The simple SMH actuator, consisting of the plated hydrogen-absorbing alloys as a power source, Peltier elements as a heat source, and a cylinder with metal bellows as a functioning part has been developed. To improve the thermal conductivity of the hydrogen-absorbing alloy, an assembly of copper pipes has been used. It is well known that hydrogen-absorbing alloys can reversibly absorb and desorb a large amount of hydrogen, more than about 1000 times of their own volume. The hydrogen equilibrium pressure increases when hydrogen is desorbed by heating of the hydrogen-absorbing alloys, whereas by cooling the alloys, the hydrogen equilibrium pressure decreases and hydrogen is absorbed. The new special metal hydride (SMH) actuator uses the reversible reaction between the heat energy and mechanical energy of a hydrogen absorbing alloys. The desirable characteristics of SMH actuator, which makes it suitable for the uses in medical and rehabilitation applications, have been also studied. For this purpose, the characteristics of the new SMH actuator for different temperature, pressure, and external load were explored.

The integration of PV modules into building facades or roof could raise their temperature that results in the reduction of PV system's electrical power generation. Hot air can be extracted from the space between PV modules and building envelope, and used for heating in buildings. PV/thermal collectors, or more generally known as PVT collectors, are devices that operate simultaneously to convert solar energy from the sun into two other useful energies, namely, electricity and heat. This paper compares the experimental performance of BIPVT((Building-Integrated Photovoltaic Thermal) collectors that applied on building roof and facade. There are four different cases: a roof-integrated PVT type and a facade-integrated PVT type, the base models with an air gap between the PV module and the surface, and the improved models for each types with aluminum fins attached to the PV modules. The accumulated thermal energy of the roof-integrated type was 15.8% higher than the facade-integrated regardless of fin attachment. The accumulated electrical energy of the roof-integrated type was 7.6% higher, compared to that of the facade-integrated. The efficiency differences among the collectors may be due to the fact that the pins absorbed heat from the PV module and emitted it to air layer.

We present a design and optical simulation of a cost-effective hybrid daylighting/LED system composed of mixing sunlight and light-emitting diode (LED) illumination powered by renewable solar energy for indoor lighting. In this approach, the sunlight collected by the concentrator is split into visible and non-visible rays by a beam splitter. The proposed sunlight collector consists of a Fresnel lens array. The non-visible rays are absorbed by the solar photovoltaic devices to provide electrical power for the LEDs. The visible rays passing through the beam splitters are coupled to a stepped thickness waveguide (STW) by tilted mirrors and confined by total internal reflection (TIR). LEDs are integrated at the end of the STW to improve the lighting quality. LEDs’ light and sunlight are mixed in the waveguide and they are coupled into an optical fiber bundle for indoor illumination. An optical sensor and lighting control system are used to control the LED light flow to ensure that the total output flux for indoor lighting is a fixed value when the sunlight is inadequate. The daylighting capacity was modeled and simulated with a commercial ray tracing software (Lighttools^TM). Results show that the system can achieve 63.8% optical efficiency at geometrical concentration ratio of 630. A required accuracy of sun tracking system achieved more than ±0.5^o . Therefore, our results provide an important breakthrough for the commercialization of large scale optical fiber daylighting systems that are faced with challenges related to high costs.

Effect of $H_2S$ on reactivity of oxygen carrier was measured and discussed using fluidized bed reactor and SDN70 oxygen carrier. We could get 100% of fuel conversion and $CO_2$ selectivity even though $H_2S$ containing simulated syngas was used as fuel for reduction. Absorbed sulfur was released during oxidation and $N_2$ purge step after oxidation as $SO_2$ form. We could get 100% of fuel conversion and $CO_2$ selectivity during cyclic reduction-oxidation tests up to 10th cycle. However, only 6~7% of sulfur can be removed during oxidation and $N_2$ purge step and 93~94% of sulfur was accumulated in the oxygen carrier. Therefore we could conclude that total removal of sulfur was not possible. $SO_2$ emission during oxidation decreased as the number of cycle increased. Therefore we could expect that the reactivity of oxygen carrier will be decreased with time.

본 연구는 태양열 발전에 사용하는 공기식 다채널 체적식 흡수기의 일관성 있는 열전달 해석에 초점을 두고 있다. 이를 위해 흡수 소재 물성과 채널 형상 변화의 영향을 몬테카를로 광선추적법에 기반한 광학 모델과 전도, 대류, 복사를 고려한 1 차원 열전달 모델에 동시에 반영하였다. 광학 모델 결과는 채널 반경 대비 길이의 형상비가 매우 커서 대부분의 태양 에너지는 15 mm 이내의 짧은 길이에서 흡수됨을 증명하고 있다. 복사 열손실 분류를 통해 채널의 낮은 흡수율에서는 방사 손실은 줄지만 반사손실이 증가하여 흡수기 효율이 감소하는 것을 보였다. 큰 채널 반경이나 작은 질량 유량으로 인해 흡수기 평균 온도가 상승할 때, 방사 손실과 반사 손실 모두 증가하지만 방사 손실의 영향이 더 큰 것으로 나타났다.

In the current study, identifying regimes and behaviors of the various viscous fluids in a typical horizontal single-stage centrifugal pump and improving its performance by enhancing volute throat area have been surveyed numerically and experimentally. Indeed the initial pump had insufficient head at BEP (Best Efficient Point) in relevant applications. In order to solve this problem, the method of increasing the volute throat area on the prototype was used in steps and eventually the increased head values have been achieved. Then modified centrifugal pump, that has been constructed based on the modified control volume from numerical results, has been tested thoroughly. The maximum head and efficiency discrepancy between numerical and experimental results in BEP were 1.4 and 2.6% respectively. The effects of viscous fluids, from 1 cSt to 500 cSt, on the performance curves of centrifugal pump have been investigated as well and results showed that viscous fluids has significant effect on them. Indeed the highest head and efficiency in the same conditions at BEP has been obtained in viscosity 1 cst which was by 19.2% and 44% greater than the viscosity 500 cSt. It is also found that the highest viscous fluid had the highest energy consumption as the absorbed power of highest viscous fluid, 500 cSt, increased up to approximately 55% above the lowest viscous fluid, 1 cSt, values.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the shock attenuation mechanisms while varying the loads in a backpack during drop landing. Ten subjects (age: $22.8{\pm}3.6$, height: $173.5{\pm}4.3$, weight: $70.4{\pm}5.2$) performed drop landing under five varying loads (0, 5kg. 10kg. 20kg. 30kg). By employing two cameras (Sony VX2100) the following kinematic variables (phase time, joint rotational angle and velocity of ankle, knee and hip) were calculated by applying 2D motion analysis. Additional data, i.e. max vertical ground force (VGRF) and acceleration, was acquired by using two AMTI Force plates and a Noraxon Inline Accelerometer Sensor. Through analysing the power spectrum density (PSD), drop landing patterns were classified into four groups and each group was discovered to have a different shock attenuation mechanism. The first pattern that appeared at landing was that the right leg absorbed most of the shock attenuation. The second pattern to appear was that subject quickly transferred the load from the right leg to the left leg as quickly as possible. Thus, this illustrated that two shock attenuation mechanisms occurred during drop landing under varying load conditions.

본 논문에서는 밑이 뚫린 원통형 진동수주 파력발전장치에 의한 파 에너지 흡수효율을 살펴보았다. 경계치 문제는 공기실내의 변동압력이 없을 때 입사파에 의한 산란문제와 공기실 내부의 변동압력에 의한 방사문제로 나누어진다. 공기실 내에서 공기 흐름에 대한 연속방정식을 적용하여 변동압력을 구하였다. 이로부터 진동수주 파력발전장치가 흡수한 시간평균 마력과 에너지 취득 폭을 구하였다. 수치계산에서는 원통형 공기실의 반지름과 잠긴 깊이 그리고 입사파의 주파수를 바꿔가면서 공기실 내부의 유량 변화와 에너지 취득 폭을 살펴보았다. 수학적으로 구한 최적의 터빈 상수를 대입하며 구한 에너지 취득 폭의 최대값은 원통형 공기실의 공진 모드 중에서 첫 번째 공진 모드인 Helmholtz모드에서 나타난다. 따라서 효율적인 파력발전장치를 제작하기 위해서는 설치될 해역의 파의 주파수와 공기실의 고유주파수가 일치되도록 공기실의 형상을 설계하여야 한다.

디지털 오토파일럿은 전자해도상에서 선박의 운항예정 코스를 설정하여 입력시킨 후, 자동운항 모드로 세트하면 선박이 운항코스의 경로를 따라 자동으로 항행하는 시스템이다. 워터젯시스템은 엔진과 연결된 임펠러(회전익)를 구동하여 선저에 선수방향으로 설치된 흡입구를 통하여 해수를 흡입하여 압력을 높인 후, 노즐을 통하여 가속된 해수를 선저의 선미방향으로 분사시키므로써 선체를 조향하고 추진시키는 장치이다. 그러므로 워터젯시스템은 수심이 낮은 해역에서도 운항이 가능하며, 고효율의 고속추진, 상대적으로 낮은 진동과 유동소음 등의 환경에서 매우 효과적이므로 새로운 추진시스템으로 수요가 확대되고 있다. 그러나 워터젯시스템의 전기적인 제어신호는 표준화되어있지 않으므로 디지털 오토파일럿의 표준화된 인터페이스를 제공하지 않는다. 본 논문은 표준화된 오토파일럿과 워터젯시스템 사이에서 연동하므로써 고속선박을 신뢰성 있게 조향할 수 있는 피드백 제어인터페이스 모듈을 설계하였다.
