  • There are not only lots of controllers such as UMC(Unit Master Controller), BMC(Boiler Master Controller), Fuel Flow controller, Air flow controller, Feed water flow controller, S/H R/H Temperature controller and so on, but also compensation controller such as BTU compensator, Fuel/Water ratio controller and O2 Co controller to take automatic control in the super critical once through boiler. It is important to make complete automation of boiler to use the compensation controller like BTU compensator. For example, In case of some boiler condition, operator has to change combustion parameter for changing the coal, on the contrary BTU compensator can calculate set value of the fuel flow and reset the fuel flow demand by itself. This paper shows us the logic and instruction regarding compensation controller of boiler that can be operated automatically.

  • The efficiency of photovoltaic generation systems depends on the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) technique. Among the various schemes presented in the literature, the incremental conductance (INC) method is one of the most frequently used due to its superb tracking ability under changes in insolation and temperature. Generally, conventional INC algorithms implement a simple duty-cycle updating rule that is mainly found on the polarity of the peak-power evaluation function. However, this fails to maximize the performance in both steady-state and transient conditions. In order to overcome this limitation, a novel regulated INC (r-INC) method is proposed in this paper. Like the compensators in automatic control systems, this method applies a digital compensator to evaluate the INC function and improve the capability of power tracking. Precise modeling of a new MPPT system is also presented in the optimized design process. A 120W boost peak power tracker is utilized to obtain comparative test results and to confirm the superiority of the proposed method over existing techniques.

  • At gas stations, liquid fuels expand and contract in volume owing to temperature variations. In Korea, the ambient temperature varies between $-15^{\circ}C$ in winter and $35^{\circ}C$ in summer. The volume expansion coefficients of liquid fuels are about $0.1%/^{\circ}C$. To investigate this issue, we measured daily changes in fuel temperature and the delivered fuel temperature at gas stations. In addition, we scrutinized the daily, monthly, and annual changes in temperature over past 50 years in Korea. The results show that the temperature of the fuel in the storage tank was maintained at a stable value(summer or winter). Many factors, such as the surrounding conditions, fuel filling frequency, and gas station location, influence the delivered fuel temperature. The results of this study can be applied for establishing a national regulation and will contribute to fair transactions.
