Many researchers have been trying to improve the propulsion efficiency of a propeller. In this study, the numerical analysis is carried out for the POW(Propeller Open Water test) performance of a propeller equipped with an energy saving device called PHVC(Propeller Hub Vortex Control). PHVC is aimed to control the propeller hub vortex behind the propeller so that the rotational kinetic energy loss can be reduced. The unsteady Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes(URANS) equations are assumed as the governing flow equations and are solved by using a commercial CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) software, where SST k-ω model is selected for turbulence closure. The computed characteristic values, thrust, torque and propulsion efficiency coefficients for the target propeller with and without PHVC and the local flows in the propeller wake region are validated by the model test results of KRISO LCT(Large Cavitation Tunnel). It is concluded from the present numerical results that CFD can be a good promising method in the assessment of the hydrodynamic performance of PHVC in the design stage.

In this paper, we designed and implemented a mobile video transmission device with 1080i resolution and 30fps frame rate using wireless multi-access technologies. The video acquisition delay time of 16us and jitter of 21ms for this equipment were obtained, respectively. The device is designed to access various communication networks. In order to evaluate the performance of its video transmission capability, a server and monitoring viewer are implemented. In the performance test using LTE network, 211ms delay time was obtained at 3Mbps transmission. Rendering of 1fps frame rate at the 265kbps transmission was confirmed for the transmission test using Inmarsat network.

In his paper, we have developed the SMD(surface mounted device) type PECL(positive emitter-coupled logic) VCXO of the $5{\times}7mm$ size for gratifying the requested specifications and the multilayer ceramic SMD(surface mounted device) package technology. The VCXO wired with the PECL(positive emitter coupled logic) package take place a stray inductance and a parasitic capacitance by the length and the inner pattern of the VCXO and the amplitude attenuation and signal loss due to the reflection of power source and the noise component. We have developed the Zig system to analyze the precise spectrum and evaluate the performance. The basic operating voltage is the 3.3 V and have the frequency range of 120MHz-180MHz. The Q factor is over 5K and it has the low jitter characteristics of 3.5 ps and low phase noise.

The electric power consumed by the embedded devices has become a critical issue because the reduction of power consumption is an important factor to prolong the battery-operated devices' lifetime. Many researches and techniques to reduce the power consumption have been proposed and developed but any power method cannot guarantee optimal power consumption of an embedded device - it would be faced with numerous situation - in all ways. Specifically, power researches for embedded devices deployed in the industry field have hardly been done. In this paper, low power service is proposed to minimize power reduction with the several usage status of embedded devices in the industry field. The usage status is basically classified according to the distance between the device and the user which is obtained by the ultrasonic and PIR sensor. The performance evaluation shows that the proposed scheme can reduce the power consumption by up to 45.3% compared to the device with no power reduction scheme. It also shows that the power consumption of the proposed scheme is 5.2% ~ 16.8% lower than that of the timeout scheme.

IGBT (insulated gate bipolar transistor) has been widely used around the power industry as it has good switching performance and its excellent conductance. In order to reduce power loss during switch turn-on state, it is essential to reduce its resistance. However, trade off relationship between breakdown voltage and device conductance is the greatest obstacle on the way of improvement. Floating island structure is one of the solutions. Still, under optimized device condition for the best performance, improvement rate is negligible. Therefore, this paper suggests adding trench gate on floating island structure to eliminate JFET (junction field effect transistor) area to reduce resistance and activate floating island effect. Experimental result by 2D simulation using TCAD, shows 20% improvement of turn-on state voltage drop.

An underwater speaker was developed for use as an acoustic deterrent device that transmits acoustic energy through the water omnidirectionally over a broadband frequency range to eliminate marine mammal attacks and to prevent physical damage to the inshore and coastal fishing grounds of Korea. The underwater speaker was constructed of two vibration caps machined from 6061-T6 aluminum alloy and a stack of PZ 26 piezoelectric ceramic rings (Ferroperm Piezoceramics A/S) connected mechanically in series and electrically in parallel. The performance characteristics of the underwater speaker were measured and analyzed in an experimental water tank of $5\;m{\times}5\;m{\times}6\;m$. The peak transmitting voltage response (TVR) was measured at 11.16 kHz with 163.45 dB re $1\;{\mu}Pa$/V at 1m. The underwater speaker showed a near omnidirectional beam pattern at the peak TVR resonance frequency. The usable frequency range was 4-25 kHz with a lower TVR limit of approximately 140 dB. We conclude that this underwater speaker could be satisfactorily used as an acoustic deterrent device against marine mammals, particularly the bottlenose dolphin, to protect catches and fishing grounds as well as the mammals themselves, for example, by keeping them away from fishing gear and/or vessels.

In this study, the optimum design conditions of a polymer electrolyte membrane for application to a flexible electrochromic device (ECD) were tried to be derived. Polyvinyl butyral (PVB) with excellent adhesive property and transparency was selected as the base polymer for the preparation of the electrolyte membrane, and adipate-based polymer was used as the plasticizer. As a result, it was confirmed that the most influential factors on the ECD performance were the ionic conductivity and permeability of the electrolyte membrane. In addition, it was found that the factor has a close relationship with the dissociation property of the lithium salt. Overall, the optimal ECD performance was achieved when LiTFSI salt having a large anion size among various lithium salts was dissolved in a content of about 25 wt.%.

A technique to measure the adsorption characteristic of surface area and pore size distribution is proposed and its performance is examined. While the existing equipment utilizes liquid nitrogen, the proposed uses carbon dioxide at the room temperature leading to the small measuring device with easy operation and short measurement time. The performance of the device has been examined with micro-particle carbon cryogel and bamboo activated carbon. The results from the proposed device compared with those of the adsorption apparatus indicate that the measurement of meso-porous material is comparable but micro-porous material gives some error.

With ICT technology develops, IoT environment is attracting attention. However, IoT devices have various CPU performance as much as various purpose of use. Some IoT devices use the cpu that doesn't support public key cryptogrphy or crypto acceleration.
