In this paper, TE(transverse electric) scattering problems by a resistive strip grating between a double dielectric layer are analyzed by using the FGMM(fourier galerkin moment method) known as a numerical method of electromagnetic fileld. The boundary conditions are applied to obtain the unknown field coefficients, the scattered electromagnetic fields are expanded in a series of Floquet mode functions, and the resistive boundary condition is applied to analysis of the resistive strip. In order to deal with the problem of the double dielectric layer, numerical calculation was performed only when the thickness and relative permittivity of the dielectric layers had the same value. Overall, as the resistivity of the uniform resistivity increased, the current density induced in the resistive strip decreased, the reflected power decreased, and the transmitted power relatively increased. The numerical results of the structure proposed in this paper are shown in good agreement compared to the results of PMM, a numerical analysis method of the existing paper.

In this work, we prepared activated multi-walled carbon nanotubes/polyacrylonitrile (A-MWCNTs/C) composites by film casting and activation method. Electrochemical properties of the composites were investigated in terms of serving as MWCNTs-based electrode materials for electric double layer capacitors (EDLCs). As a result, the A-MWCNTs/C composites had much higher BET specific surface area, and pore volume, and lower volume ratio of micropores than those of pristine MWCNTs/PAN ones. Furthermore, some functional groups were added on the surface of the A-MWCNTs/C composites. The specific capacitance of the A-MWCNTs/C composites was more than 4.5 times that of the pristine ones at 0.1 V discharging voltage owing to the changes of the structure and surface characteristics of the MWCNTs by activation process.

The unique effects of highly conductive conducting polymer/SWNT (single walled carbon nanotube) composite nanoparticles in electric double layer capacitors are studied for the enhancement of the adhesive properties, specific capacitance and power characteristics of the electrode. Because the conducting polymer/SWNT composite material, which is believed to act as a polymer binder, an active material for charge storage and a conducting agent, is well distributed on the activated carbon, greatly enhanced adhesion properties, cell capacitance and power characteristics were obtained.

The performance of a passenger vehicle has been greatly improved recently owing to the intensive use of electronic controllers. Many components of a vehicle, including the engine, are controlled by electronic systems installed in the vehicle. Therefore, the electrical power required for such electronics has increased significantly. However, the electrical power generated by the vehicle's alternator, operated by the engine, is limited, and when the vehicle is started, a large instantaneous current is required. The voltage of the vehicle electrical system fluctuates to a very low level, then, it is gradually recovered. This case is very severe and can even cause damage to electronic systems. In this study, a voltage-stabilizing module comprising electric double layer supercapacitors, which could alleviate the voltage variation, was developed and tested.

In this work, the activated carbons (ACs) with high porosity were synthesized from pitch by KOH chemical activation. The structure and surface properties of ACs were characterized by means of elemental analysis, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS). And, the influence of the KOH-to-pitch ratio on the porosity of the ACs was investigated using the nitrogen adsorption isotherms at 77 K and a scanning electron microscopy (SEM). As a result, pitch could be successfully converted into ACs with well-developed micro and mesopores. The specific surface areas and pore volumes were increased with an increase of the KOH-to-pitch ratio. Furthermore, it was found that the addition of KOH led to the transformation of the micropores to the meso- and macropores. In the application to electric double layer capacitors (EDLC), the pitch-based ACs showed a higher capacitance per weight and per volume, and an excellent electrochemical stability in the high voltage region.

We fabricated five type of electric double layer capacitor(EDLC) with extremely stable activated carbon as a positive and negative electrodes. The electrodes consisted of activated carbon and several different conductor layers on aluminium foil. Cyclic voltammogram of activated carbon electrodes at scan rate 5mV/sec was reversable redox reaction. The discharge capacity of activated carbon-KS 6 composite electrode was higher than that of activated carbon electrode without KS 6.

Since a microgrid has renewable energy sources, imbalance between power supply and power demand occurs in the islanded mode. In order to solve the imbalance, several energy storage systems (ESSs) such as bettary energy storage system (BESS), EDLC (electric double layer capacitor), flywheel, and SMES (superconducting magnetic energy storage) are generally used. Especially, their electrical characteristics are different. For efficient use of them, a coordinated control scheme is required. In this paper, a coordinated control scheme for using a Lead-acid BESS, a Lithium BESS, and a EDLC is designed to efficient frequency control for a microgrid in the islanded mode. The coordinated frequency control strategy is designed based on their electrical characteristics. The feasibility of the proposed coordinated frequency control strategy is verified through the simulation.

슈퍼캐패시터(Super Capacitor) 또는 울트라 캐패시터(Ultra Capacitor) 등으로 불리우는 전기 이중층 캐패시터(EDLC, Electric Double Layer Capacitor)는 기존 콘덴서보다 월등한 용량 특성을 가지며, 전극과 전해질의 화학반응을 이용하던 이차전지들과 달리 주로 계면반응을 사용한 축전원리를 이용하여 높은 출력밀도와 충방전 효율, 무제한에 가까운 사이클 특성을 가지고 있다. 또한 전류변화에 안정적이어서 기존의 이차전지와는 달리 보호회로를 생략할 수 있기 때문에 단순한 회로 구성이 가능하고 전극활물질로서 탄소재를 사용하여 환경 친화적인 특성을 가진 차세대 에너지저장장치라고 할 수 있다. 특히 50만 사이클이라는 우수한 수명특성으로 인해 기존의 이차전지가 사용되기 어려운 다양한 분야에 적용이 늘어가고 있는 추세에 있다.

Activated carbon was activated with chemical treatment to attain high surface area with porous structure. We have been considered activated carbon is the ideal material for high voltage electric double layer capacitor due to their high specific surface area, good conductivity and chemical stability. In this study we found that increase in electrochemical capacitance due to activated carbon. Also chemically activated carbon and water treatment have resulted larger capacitance and also exhibits better electrochemical behavior, and is about 15% more than in untreated state. The structural change in activated carbon through chemical treatment activation was investigated by using SEM and XRD. In this study, the dependence of the activation behavior with KOH in the micro structure of host materials will be discussed. Furthermore, the relation to the electric double layer capacitance, especially the specific capacitance per unit area, is also discussed.

In this paper we show that solutions of the nonlinear Nernst-Planck equation possesses the quadruple-layer structure near the interface when the electrolyte receives a high frequency forcing such as a high-frequency alternating current. Very near to the interface wall, the well-known, classical Stern layer exists. Near to the Stern layer we have the secondly thin layer (to be called inner layer in this paper) where the ion concentrations behave under the same frequency as the external forcing. However, in this layer, the positive and negative ion concentrations develop with the time phase 180-degree different from each other. Next to this second layer, we have the third layer (called middle layer) in which two ion concentrations change with the time period double the forcing, and both concentrations behave in the same time phase. In the outermost layer, i.e. the forth layer, (called outer layer) the ion concentrations show the same-phase development as the third one but decaying very slowly in time. Our assertion is mostly based on the 1-D numerical simulation for the Nernst-Planck equation under a high frequency AC field assuming that the quadruple layer is very thin compared with the length scale representative of the bulk region.
