Recently, low energy houses have become an essential issue globally and various subsidy programs are ongoing to penetrate. All-electric houses which are another type of low energy houses or zero carbon houses are being developed. These houses consider new & renewable energy and demand side management programs in the construction and the diffusion process because these programs are essential policies to use energy resources reasonably. This paper shows a simulation methodology to control home appliances in all-electric houses considering the electricity consumption pattern of residents. The simulation is a first step to estimate energy saving of the house in a practical manner.

In home appliances, electric energy is optimally controlled by using power electronics technology, creating a comfortable environment in terms of energy saving, low sound generation, and reduced time consumption. Usually simplicity and robustness make the three phase induction motor attractive for use in domestic appliance, including washing machines. Two main types of domestic washing machine have evolved. We focus on the front loading machine favored in Europe, which has a horizontal drum axis. The efficiency improvement in home appliances is very important for customers. Induction motor efficiency can be improved by means of loss reduction, which can be realized by motor selection and design, improvement of the waveforms supplied by power Inverter, utilizing a suitable control method. So this paper describes the architecture and feature of washing machine fed induction motor drive under minimizing losses vector control.

This paper describes an advanced prototype of voltage-fed zero voltage soft-switching PWM resonant inverter with an active voltage clamped capacitor, which is put into practice for high-frequency high-power induction-heated appliances. This application-specific quasi-resonant inverter using the latest generation IGBTs for soft-switching can regulate its output power under a principle of a fixed frequency ZVS-PWM strategy. Its operating principle and unique features are presented as compared with a conventional quasi-resonant ZVS inverter for induction-heated cooker, together with its power regulation characteristics on the basis of its simulation and experimental results. The steady-state performances of this inverter developed for multi-burner type induction-heated food cooking appliance are evaluated and discussed from a practical point of view.

본 논문에서는 첨단 주택에서 가전기기 에너지 절약을 위한 재실 기반 에너지 절약 시스템을 제안하였다. 제안된 시스템은 센싱 시스템과 홈 게이트웨이 시스템으로 구성된다. 센싱 시스템은 사람의 움직임을 감지하는 PIR 센서를 장착한 무선 센싱 노드와 CT센서를 이용하여 전류 사용량을 측정하고 무선으로 전달하는 스마트 플러그로 구성된다. 스마트 플러그를 이용하여 가전기기의 전류 소모량을 측정하고, 방과 문에 설치한 재실 감지 센서를 이용하여 거주자의 재실 유무를 확인하였다. 제안한 시스템은 부재 공간의 불필요한 전기 에너지 사용량을 스위치를 끔으로서 절약한다. 실험 결과 재실 기반으로 전기 에너지를 절약한다면 약 34%를 절약할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to identify visual perception of and satisfaction with the orange peel effect of surface. The orange peel effect is a type of finish on painted or coated surface. Background: Gloss paint sprayed on a smooth surface (such as car body, smart phone, and electric home appliances, etc.) should also dry into a smooth surface. Then, a surface resembling the texture of an orange peel can be caused by some factors. The orange peel effect can degrade user's satisfaction with a product. Method: Visual perception and emotional satisfaction were subjectively evaluated using Likert scale. The significance of orange peel effect on visual perception and satisfaction were then analyzed by the analysis of variance. The correlation between visual perception and satisfaction was also analyzed. Results: Surface roughness significantly influenced visual perception and emotional satisfaction. The level of visual perception increased and emotional satisfaction decreased with the increase of orange peel effect. Emotional satisfaction decreased with the increase of visual perception level. Conclusion: It was identified that orange peel phenomenon on surface was a very important factor for emotional satisfaction. The orange peel effect on the surface of a product should be minimized to improve the emotional satisfaction of the product. Application: The result of this study can be applied to the texture design of the body of a car, smart phones, and electric home appliances, etc.

Recently, Smart Grid is a emerging topic in power and communication industry. Smart Grid refers to a evolution of the electricity supply infrastructure that monitors, protects, and intelligently optimize the operation of the interconnected elements including various type of generators, power grid, building/home automation system and end-use consumers. In order to successful implementation of Smart Grid, energy management function will be the key factor that coordinates and optimally controls the various loads according to the operating condition and environments, and the load patterns in residential and commercial building will be required as fundamental element for load management. In this study, we collects many types of energy usage data of electric appliances, analyze their load curves, and make the general load patterns for electrical appliance.

Recently, home energy management system (HEMS) for power consumption reduction has been widely used and studied. The HEMS performs electric power consumption control for the indoor electric device connected to the HEMS. However, a traditional HEMS is used for passive control method using some particular power saving devices. Disadvantages with this traditional HEMS is that these power saving devices should be newly installed to build HEMS environment instead of existing home appliances. Therefore, an HEMS, which performs with existing home appliances, is needed to prevent additional expenses due to the purchase of state-of-the-art devices. In this paper, an intelligent inference algorithm for EMS at home for non-power saving electronic equipment, called legacy devices, is proposed. The algorithm is based on the adaptive network fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) and has a subsystem that notifies retraining schedule to the ANFIS to increase the inference performance. This paper discusses the overview and the architecture of the system, especially in terms of the retraining schedule. In addition, the comparison results show that the proposed algorithm is more accurate than the classic ANFIS-based EMS system.

기존의 NIALM 연구들은 부하 식별을 위해 전압 변동은 무시할 수 있고 식별 결과에 영향을 주지 않는다고 가정하기 때문에 일반적으로 전압과 관련된 PF나, 고조파 신호는 부하 식별을 위한 매개 변수로 고려되지 않았으나, 실제 이러한 조건은 스마트 홈 분야에서 NIALM의 응용성이 제한되는 어려움이 만든다. 본 논문의 실험을 통해 부하 모니터링 시스템의 정확성과 신뢰성을 향상시키기 위해 전압과 관련된 매개 변수와 고조파의 특성을 사용해야 한다고 결론을 내렸다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 홈 네트워크 환경에서 가전기기의 종류 및 전기 에너지 사용량을 효율적으로 분석할 수 있는 개선된 NIALM 방식을 제안한다. 제안된 방식은 가전기기 고유의 특징 및 동작 특성을 분석하고, 일부 가전기기가 가지고 있는 고조파 특성을 인식 매개변수로 활용함으로써 전력 에너지 사용 패턴 분석 및 추적할 수 있게 된다. 본 논문에서 제안된 방식을 통해 홈 네트워크에서 실제 운용되는 가전 에너지 효율성 증대와 스마트그리드 전력 수요관리 시장에 서비스를 제공할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

최근 가정이나 산업용 건물에서 컴퓨터, TV, 냉장고, LED 조명 등 가전기기들의 누전전류에 의한 감전사고가 지속적으로 발생하고 있다. 그리고 가정 내 벽면에 설치된 콘센트에 직접 연결되어 제어 하는 누전차단 모듈들은 모듈 후단에 병렬로 연결된 각각의 가전기기들의 누전상태를 확인하기가 쉽지 않다. 또한 전류가 정상적인 전류의 통로 이외로 흐르는 누전전류를 기존의 누전차단기들은 배전함에 설치되어 누전시 전원을 차단해 주는 역할 을 한다. 가전기기의 누전으로 인한 감전, 화재 등 여러 가지 재해가 발생하여 누전전류의 위험성이 심각하게 제시되고 있다. 이에 근거리 무선통신시스템 중에서 저전력과 저가격 면에서 장점이 많은 IEEE 80215.4 기반의 지그비통신을 이용하여 상시 감시할 수 있는 누전상태 모니터링시스템 구현방안을 제시한다.
