Na-ion batteries are being considered as promising cost-effective energy storage devices for the future compared to Li-ion batteries owing to the crustal abundance of Na-ion. However, the large radius of the Na ion result in sluggish electrode kinetics that leads to poor electrochemical performance, which prohibits the use of these batteries in real time application. Therefore, identification and optimization of the anode, cathode, and electrolyte are essential for achieving high-performance Na-ion batteries. In this context, the current review discusses the suitable high-voltage cathode materials for Na-ion batteries. According to a recent research survey, sodium vanadium fluorophosphate (NVPF) compounds have been emphasized for use as a high-voltage Na-ion cathode material. Among the fluorophosphate groups, $Na_3V_2(PO_4)_2F_3$ exhibited the high theoretical capacity ($128mAh\;g^{-1}$) and working voltage (~3.9 V vs. $Na/Na^+$) compared to the other fluorophosphates and $Na_3V_2(PO_4)_3$. Here, we have also highlighted the classification of Fluorophosphates, NVPF composite with carbonaceous materials, the appropriate synthesis methods and how these methods can enhance the electrochemical performance. Finally, the recent developments in NVPF for the application in energy storage devices and its outlook are summarized.

The liquid lead-lithium (Pb-17Li) blanket has many applications in fusion reactors due to its good tritium breeding performance, high heat transfer efficiency and safety. The compatibility of liquid Pb-17Li alloy with the structural material of blanket under magnetic field is one of the concerns. In this study, corrosion experiments China low activation martensitic (CLAM) steel and 316L steel were carried out in a forced convection Pb-17Li loop under 1.0 T magnetic field at 480 ℃ for 1000 h. The corrosion results on 316L steel showed the characteristic with a superficial porous layer resulted from selective leaching of high-soluble alloy elements and subsequent phase transformation from austenitic matrix to ferritic phase. Then the porous layers were eroded by high-velocity jet fluid. The main corrosion mechanism of CLAM steel was selective dissolution-base corrosion attack on the microstructure boundary regions and exclusively on high residual stress areas. CLAM steel performed a better corrosion resistance than that of 316L steel. The high Ni dissolution rate and the erosion of corroded layers are the main causes for the severe corrosion of 316L steel.

Fuel cells are known as eco - friendly energy facilities that can use heat energy and electric energy at the same time. Fuel cells are classified according to the temperature and material used, and solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is relatively high temperature ($700-800^{\circ}C$). SOFC requires a hot box consisting of a high temperature stack, a reformer, a burner, and the heat exchangers in order to use energy efficiently. The hot box needs to maintain heat insulation performance at high temperature to reduce heat loss. However, Fibrous insulation, which is widely used, needs to be improved because it has a disadvantage that the thermal conductivity is rapidly increased due to the increase of temperature. Therefore, this study was carried out to develop a thermal insulation, which is applied to multiple layers insulation (MLI) technic, that can be used under SOFC operating conditions and prevent a drastic drop in thermal conductivity at high temperature. The developed insulation is consist of a thermally conductive material, a spacer, and a reflective plate. The thermal conductivity of the insulation was measured by in the thermal conductivity measuring device at high temperature range. As a result, it was confirmed that the developed layers insulation have an good thermal conductivity (0.116 W/mK) than fibrous insulation (0.24 W/mK) as a radiation shielding effect at a high temperature of 1,173 K.

본 연구는 고등학생의 고카페인 에너지음료 섭취 실태와 부작용 경험을 파악하기 위한 실시된 조사연구이다. 수집된 245명의 자료를 SPSS 18로 기술통계와 ${\chi}^2-test$를 실시하였다. 본 연구대상자의 79.5%가 고카페인 에너지음료를 마신 경험이 있었다. 고카페인 에너지음료 섭취 후 50.6%가 부작용을 경험했으며, 부작용 중 가슴 두근거림이 가장 많았다. 일반적인 특성 중 한 달 용돈(p=.019)과 음주 여부(p=.033)에 따라 고카페인 에너지음료 섭취 경험과 유의한 차이가 있었고, 성별(p=.001)과 건강상태(p=.006)에 따라 부작용 경험과 유의한 차이가 있었다. 또한 고카페인 에너지음료 섭취 실태에 따른 부작용 경험과의 차이는 고카페인 에너지음료의 섭취 이유(p=.040)와 섭취 시기(p=.005)에 따라 유의한 차이가 있었다. 고등학생들의 고카페인 에너지음료의 소비를 줄이기 위해서는 고카페인 음료의 판매를 제한할 수 있는 정책적인 방안이 마련되어야 할 것이며, 학생 스스로가 조절할 수 있는 역량 함양을 위해 지속적인 건강교육이 필요할 것이다.

The main switch of high-frequency boost converter may be failed because the high switching current or voltage can damage this switch. The high switching stress can be reduced by snubber circuit. In this paper, a new passive snubber circuit which can recover trapped snubber energy without added control is proposed for boost converter. The control of boost converter with proposed snubber is the same as the conventional one. In addition, the energy recovery circuit can be implemented with a few passive components. The analysis for proposed circuit is presented, and the validity of the circuit is verified through simulation and experiment.

Ultra wide band electromagnetic energy can be transmitted to a far field by emitting the nanoseconds high voltage pulse electromagnetic energy via an antenna. This UWB EM energy is expected to be used in post-packing pasteurization of food, detection of buried objects or underground water veins and caves and the treatment of waste water or polluted gas. The nanoseconds pulse forming for UWB generation using high voltage blumlein line and an ultrafast switch is mentioned.

열에너지 저장은 고온 또는 저온의 열에너지를 임시 저장하는 것으로서 에너지 수요와 공급 사이의 불균형을 줄일 수 있고, 이를 통해 에너지를 절약하고 에너지 이용효율을 향상시킬 수 있다. 특히 간헐적으로 에너지를 생산하는 신재생에너지의 경우 에너지 저장 장치와의 조합은 필수적이다. 또한 지하 암반의 낮은 열전도도와 높은 열용량을 이용하여 지하에 열에너지를 저장하는 경우 열손실을 최소화하여 추가적인 효율 향상이 기대된다. 본 고에서는 지하 열에너지 저장 기술을 조사 분석하고 스웨덴에 암반공동내 열에너지 저장 사례를 소개하였다.
