  • 이 연구의 목적은 Ir192 선원을 이용한 근접치료에서 물 흡수선량 1 Gy에 대한 광자 에너지플루언스와 질량에너지흡수계수를 유도하는데 있다. Khan이 저술한 방사선치료물리학으로부터 Ir192 선원의 감마선 선속에 대한 납의 반가층을 얻었다. 얻어진 납의 반가층으로부터 선감쇠계수와 질량감쇠계수를 산출하였다. 산출된 납의 질량감쇠계수를 NIST의 납의 질량감쇠계수 자료에 대응시켜 일치하는 질량감쇠계수의 광자에너지를 유효에너지로 결정하였다. 결정된 유효에너지를 NIST의 물의 질량에너지흡수계수 자료의 광자에너지에 대응시켜서, 물의 질량에너지흡수계수는 0.03273 cm2/g(32.73 cm2/kg)으로 얻었다. 얻어진 물의 질량에너지흡수계수(32.73 cm2/kg)를 물 흡수선량 1 Gy에 나누어 광자에너지플루언스는 0.03055 J/cm2으로 산출하였다.

  • In the past few decades, the global population growth and rapid economic development have resulted in significant increases in building energy consumption. To reduce greenhouse-gas emissions and building energy consumption, building materials and energy technologies must be optimized. Building retrofitting is a more efficient method than reconstruction to improve the building energy performance. In order to improve the energy performance of existing buildings, this study proposed energy-efficiency retrofit plans and derived cost-effective retrofit plan. The energy efficient retrofit method is achieved through the packaging of energy technology and the energy and cost reduction effect of the energy efficiency retrofit package are analyzed. As a result of the study, the energy-efficiency retrofit package showed an energy reduction effect of up to 60% or more and a construction cost reduction of about 30%. This study argues that optimal energy and construction cost reduction of existing buildings are possible through the packaging of energy efficiency technology.

  • 센서를 통해 수집된 데이터는 모든 정보를 취합하는 기지국으로 전송되게 된다. 센서들은 데이터를 전송하면서 지속적으로 주변 환경에 대한 데이터를 수집하여야 하기 때문에 에너지 소모가 크다. 본 논문에서는 수집된 데이터가 효율적으로 전송되어 트래픽 혼잡을 피하면서 에너지 효율성을 고려하는 기법을 제안한다. 트래픽이 증가하거나 감소할 때 전송률을 제어함으로써 Traffic 혼잡을 피하고, 기본적인 CSMA(Carrier Sense Multiple Access) 프로토콜에 최적의 옵션을 설정하여 각 센서에서 에너지 소모를 최소화는 기법이다. 시뮬레이션을 통해 최적의 CSMA 옵션과 제안된 트래픽 제어 기법을 적용하여 성능을 분석하고, 에너지 효율성과 효과적인 트래픽 제어 방법을 제시한다.

  • Electric vehicles (EV) demands for greater acceleration, performance and vehicle range in pure electric vehicles plus mandated requirements to further reduce emissions in hybrid electric vehicles (HEV) increase the appeal for combined on-board energy storage systems and generators. And the power electronics plays an important role in providing an interface between fuel cells (FC) and loads. This paper deals with a multiple input DC-DC power converter devoted to combine the power flowing of multi-source on energy systems. The multi-source is composed of (i) FC system as a prime power demands, (ii) super capacitor banks as energy storage devices for high and intense power demands, (iii) superconducting magnetic energy storage system (SMES), (iv) multiple input DC-DC power converter and (v) a three phase inverter-fed permanent magnet synchronous motor as a drive. In this system, It is used super capacitor banks and superconducting magnetic energy replaces from the battery system. The modeling and transient performance simulation is effective for reducing transient influence caused by sudden charge of effective load. The main purpose of power electronic converters is to convert the DC power output from the fuel cell and other to a suitable AC voltage, which can be connected to electric loads directly (PMSM). The fuel cell and other output is connected to the DC-DC converter, which regulates the DC link voltage.

  • An extensive investigation of photon interaction properties has been made for $Zn_xTe_{100-x}$ alloys (where x = 5, 20, 30, 40, 50) to explore its possible use in sensing and shielding gamma radiations. The results show better and stable response of ZnTe alloys for various photon interaction properties over the wide energy range, with an additional benefit of ease in fabrication due to lower melting points of Zn and Te. Mass attenuation coefficient values show strong dependence on photon energy as well as composition. Effective atomic number has maximum value for $Zn_5Te_{95}$ and lowest for $Zn_{50}Te_{50}$ in the entire energy region. The alloy sample with maximum $Z_{eff}$ shows minimal value of $N_e$ and vice versa. Mean free path follows inverse trend as observed for mass attenuation coefficient. The exposure and energy absorption buildup factors depend upon photon energy, penetration thickness and composition (effective atomic number) of $Zn_xTe_{100-x}$ alloys. It finds its application for sensing and shielding from highly energetic and highly penetrating photons at sites where radioactive materials were used and visibility of material is not a big constraint. Further, energy down conversion property of ZnTe alloys with subsequent emission in green band suggests its potential use in sensing gamma photons.

  • X-ray grating interferometry has been an active area of research in recent years. In particular, various studies have been carried out for the practical use of the x-ray grating interferometer in medical and industrial fields. For the commercialization of the system, it needs to be optimized for its application. In this study, we have developed a prototype of the compact high energy x-ray grating interferometer of which the high effective energy and compactness is of our primary feature of design. We have designed the Talbot-Lau x-ray interferometer in a symmetrical geometry with an effective energy of 54.3 keV. The system has a source-to-analyzer grating distance of 788.4 mm, which is compact enough for a commercial product. In a normal operation, it took less than ten seconds to acquire a set of phase stepping images. The acquired images had a maximum visibility of about 15%, which is relatively high compared with the visibilities of the other high-energy grating interferometric systems reported so far.

  • The mass attenuation coefficients (μm) of polyethylene glycol (PEG) of different molecular weights (1000-200,000) were measured using single-beam photon transmission. The X-ray fluorescent (XRF) photons from Zinc (Zn), Zirconium (Zr), Molybdenum (Mo), Silver (Ag) and Cadmium (Cd) targets were used to determine the attenuation of gamma radiation of energy range between 8.67 and 23.19 keV in PEG samples. The results were compared to theoretical values using XCOM and Monte Carlo simulation using Geant4 toolkit which was developed to validate the experiment at those certain energies. The mass attenuation coefficients were then used to compute the effective atomic numbers, electron density and half value layers for the studied samples. The outcomes showed good agreement between experimental and simulated results with those calculated theoretically by XCOM within 5% deviation. The PEG 1000 sample showed slightly higher μm value compared with the other samples. The dependence of the photon energy and PEG composition on the values of μm and HVL were investigated and discussed. In addition, the values of Zeff and Neff for all PEG samples behaved similarly in the given photon energy range, and they decreased as the photon energy increased.
