Concentrator photovoltaic (CPV) system consists of high-quality complex optical elements, mechanical devices, and electronics components and can have the advantages of high integration and high-efficiency energy sources. III-V compound semiconductor cells have proven performance based on high reliability in the aerospace field, but have characteristics that require absolute support of the balance of systems (BOS) such as solar position trackers, receivers with heat sinks, and housing instruments. To determine the optimum parameters of secondary optical elements (SOEs) design for CPV systems, we designed three types of CPV modules, classified as non-SOEs type, reflective mirror type, and CPC lens type. We measured the I-V and P-V characteristics of the prototype CPV modules with the angle of inclination varying from 0° to 12° and with a 500-magnification Fresnel lens. The experimental results assumed misalignment of the solar position tracker or module design of pinpoint accuracy. As a result, at the 0° tilt angle, the CPC lens produced lower power due to the quartz transmittance ratio compared to that by other SOEs. However, for tilt angles greater than 3°, the CPC lens type module achieved high efficiency and stability. This study is expected to help design high-performance CPV systems.

본 논문은, HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding) 와의 모듈 중복성을 제거하여 구현 복잡도를 낮춘, 3D-HEVC 머지 모드에 대한 설계를 제안한다. 확장 코덱의 구현 복잡도는 부호화 효율에 못지않게 매우 중요한 고려사항이므로, 가능하다면 레거시 코덱의 설계를 그대로 재사용함으로써 손쉽게 구현될 수 있어야 한다. 그러나 기존의 3D-HEVC 머지 모드 확장구조는 HEVC의 처리과정 내부에 빌트인으로 통합되어 있어서, 레거시 코덱인 HEVC와 중복되는 처리과정을 모두 새로이 재구현해야 함에 따라 구현 복잡도가 매우 높았다. 제안된 방법에서는, 재사용 된 HEVC 모듈들을 그대로 실행하는 단계와, 3D-HEVC에서 새로 도입되거나 수정된 부분만을 실행하는 단계의 구조로 분리하여 머지 모드의 설계를 변경하였다. 본 논문에서 제안된 설계를 적용함으로써, 51.4%에 달하던 중복구현을 제거할 수 있음을 알고리즘 동작분석을 통하여 확인할 수 있었으며, 제안된 설계로 인해서 야기되는 부호화 효율의 감소 및 연산 복잡도의 증가는 전혀 없었다.

Organic-inorganic metal halide perovskite solar cells have received attention because it has a number of advantages with excellent light harvesting, high carrier mobility, and facile solution processability and also recorded recently power conversion efficiency (PCEs) of over 20%. The major issue on perovskite solar cells have been reached the limit of small area laboratory scale devices produced using fabrication techniques such as spin coating and physical vapor deposition which are incompatible with low-cost and large area fabrication of perovskite solar cells using printing and coating techniques. To solution these problems, we have investigated the feasibility of achieving fully printable perovskite solar cells by the blade-coating technique. The blade-coating fabrication has been widely used to fabricate organic solar cells (OSCs) and is proven to be a simple, environment-friendly, and low-cost method for the solution-processed photovoltaic. Moreover, the film morphology control in the blade-coating method is much easier than the spray coating and roll-to-roll printing; high-quality photoactive layers with controllable thickness can be performed by using a precisely polished blade with low surface roughness and coating gap control between blade and coating substrate[1]. In order to fabricate perovskite devices with good efficiency, one of the main factors in printed electronic processing is the fabrication of thin films with controlled morphology, high surface coverage and minimum pinholes for high performance, printed thin film perovskite solar cells. Charge dissociation efficiency, charge transport and diffusion length of charge species are dependent on the crystallinity of the film [2]. We fabricated the printed perovskite solar cells with large area and flexible by the bar-coating. The morphology of printed film could be closely related with the condition of the bar-coating technique such as coating speed, concentration and amount of solution, drying condition, and suitable film thickness was also studied by using the optical analysis with SEM. Electrical performance of printed devices is gives hysteresis and efficiency distribution.

The performances of three different types of photovoltaic (PV) module technologies namely, copper-indium-diselenide (CIGS), mono-crystalline silicon (mo-Si) and amorphous silicon (a-Si) have been comparatively studied in the grid-connected system for more than a year under the tropical monsoon climate of Thailand. The yields, performance ratios and system efficiencies for the respective PV module technologies have been calculated and a comparison is presented here. The performance ratios of the initial operation year for CIGS showed highest among the compared technologies under Thailand climate conditions by marking 97.0% while 89.6% for a-Si and 81.5% for mo-Si. Although mo-Si has shown highest efficiencies all over the period, under the testing conditions, the operating efficiency of mo-Si was down-graded from its reference value mainly due to high operating temperature and the efficiency of the tested CIGS module was also found as high as that of mo-Si in the study. Accordingly, outdoor assessment shows that CIGS modules have demonstrated high performance in terms of yields and performance ratios in Thailand climate conditions.

A low concentrating (< 5X) photovoltaic module with aluminum reflectors is fabricated and evaluated which is designed to reduce the affection of the high temperature to the solar cell modules preventing the efficiency lowering. As results, the output power is increased of 1.97X from the concentrating photovoltaic module which is designed with the concentrating ratio of 2.25X and to control the module temperature cooling the module by air circulation. Also, the effect of the concentrating module with aluminum reflectors on the conventional PV module is investigated at the field. The result shows the increase of the output power more than about 20% and the improvement of the module efficiency of 1.4X in spite of the increase of average module temperature.

The excess heat that is generated from PV modules can be removed and converted into useful thermal energy. A photovoltaic-thermal(PVT) module is a combination of photovoltaic module with a solar thermal collector, forming one device that receives solar radiation and produces electricity and heat simultaneously. In general, two types of PVT can be classified: glass-covered PVT module, which produces high-temperature heat but has a slightly lower electrical yield, and uncovered PVT module, which produces relatively lower temperature heat but has a somewhat higher electrical performance. In this paper, the experimental performance of two types of the PVT combined module(water type), glazed(glass-covered) and unglazed, was analyzed. The electrical and thermal performance of the PVT combined modules were measured in outdoor conditions, and the results were compared.

This paper proposes a cooling system using thermoelectric elements for improving the output of building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) modules. The temperature characteristics that improve the output of a BIPV system have rarely been studied up to now but some researchers have proposed a method using a ventilator. The efficiency of a ventilator depends mainly on the weather such as wind, irradiation etc. Because this cooling system is so sensitive to the velocity of the wind, it is unable to operate in the nominal operating cell temperature (NOCT) or the standard test condition (STC) which allow it to generate the maximum output. This paper proposes a cooling system using thermoelectric elements to solve such problems. The temperature control of thermoelectric elements can be controlled independently in an outdoor environment because it is performed by a micro-controller. In addition, it can be operated around the NOCT or the STC through an algorithm for temperature control. Therefore, the output of the system is increased and the efficiency is raised. This paper proves the validity of the proposed method by comparing the data obtained through experiments on the cooling systems of BIPV modules using a ventilator and thermoelectric elements.

철도차량용 구동 시스템의 주 변압기를 지능형 변압기로 대체하는 것은 철도차량의 효율을 높이기 위한 효과적인 방법이다. 지능형 변압기는 고전압 입력단을 저전압 직류단으로 변환하는 정류단 모듈과, 변환된 복수의 저전압 직류단 전압을 직/병렬로 연결하여 저전압 직류 출력 전압을 제어하는 Dual Active Bridge (DAB) 컨버터 모듈로 구성된다. DAB 컨버터는 고주파 변압기를 사이에 두고 양 측 Full-Bridge 컨버터의 전압 합성 방법에 따라 전력이 양방향으로 전달될 수 있다. 이 때, 양 측 Full-Bridge 컨버터의 전압 합성 방법에 따라 고주파 변압기로 흐르는 전류의 형태가 달라지게 되며, 이는 효율에 직접적인 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 논문은 중/저 전력 조건에서 DAB 컨버터의 효율을 개선하기 위한 새로운 modulation 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 modulation 방법은 DAB 컨버터 내에 발생할 수 있는 무효 전력을 0으로 제어하도록 하며, 출력단 컨버터를 다이오드 정류기와 유사한 동작을 하도록 함으로써, 스위칭 손실을 최소화하도록 하였다. 제안된 modulation 방법을 통한 손실 저감은 900Vdc의 직류단 전압을 갖는 DAB 컨버터에 대한 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 검증하였다.
