본 논문에서는 신재생에너지원인 1.5MW 풍력발전기가 연계된 계통에 2MVA/500kWh BESS(Battery Energy Storage System)를 적용하여 실증시험을 수행한 결과를 기술하였다. 풍력발전기의 출력 전력을 측정하여 제어 알고리즘에 따라 충, 방전 지령값을 계산하는 상위제어기 EMS와 BESS를 연동하여 운전하였다. 이를 통해 BESS를 이용하여 풍력발전기의 출력이 심하게 변동하여도 계통으로 송전되는 전력을 안정적으로 제어할 수 있음을 검증하였다.

This paper shows the test result of 2MVA BESS(Battery Energy Storage System) with wind-turbine in micro-grid of the Gapado. To implement of micro-grid with BESS, characteristics of generator and customer load in grid are considered. Also, to operate of 2-parallel PCU(Power Conversion Unit) in BESS, the droop control is adopted with operating mode of grid independent. Performances of BESS with wind-turbine were verified by analysis of power quality such as voltage harmonics, ratio of voltage and frequency regulation, and by measurement of waveform such as output voltage and current.

에너지 저장 시스템(ESS, Energy Storage System)은 주파수 조정을 통한 계통 전력품질 개선, 풍력(WT)발전, 태양광(PV)발전등과 같은 신재생 에너지의 출력안정화, 에너지 저장을 통한 에너지효율화 등의 분야에 적용되고 있다. 특히 주파수 조정(F/R, Frequency Regulation)을 위한 에너지 저장 시스템은 한전의 많은 투자를 통해 활발하게 이루어 지고 있으며, 전국 변전소에 설치되고 있다. 주파수 조정을 위한 에너지 저장 시스템은 주파수 상승 시 계통의 전력을 배터리에 충전하고, 주파수 하락 시에는 배터리에 저장된 에너지를 계통에 공급하여 주파수를 안정화 시키는 역할을 한다. 본 논문에서는 주파수 조정용 에너지 저장 시스템의 변전소 적용 사례에 대해 설명한다.

수냉형 인버터는 냉각 시 칠러를 사용하게 되는데 칠러는 입력 냉각수의 온도가 높을수록 열교환 효율이 높아져 소비전력이 감소한다. 하지만 인버터는 입력 냉각수의 온도가 높을수록 손실이 증가하게 되므로 수냉형 인버터는 각각의 출력 부하에 따라 최대 효율 점이 존재한다. 본 논문에서는 각각의 출력 부하에서 냉각수 온도 제어를 통해 수냉형 인버터의 최대 효율점을 추적하는 방법을 제안한다.

Objective: To investigate the association among the electrode placement method, electrode type, and local tumor progression (LTP) following percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for small hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) and to assess the risk factors for LTP. Materials and Methods: In this retrospective study, we enrolled 211 patients, including 150 males and 61 females, who had undergone ultrasound-guided RFA for a single HCC < 3 cm. Patients were divided into four combination groups of the electrode type and placement method: 1) tumor-puncturing with an internally cooled tip (ICT), 2) tumor-puncturing with an internally cooled wet tip (ICWT), 3) no-touch with ICT, and 4) no-touch with ICWT. Univariable and multivariable Cox proportional-hazards regression analyses were performed to evaluate the risk factors for LTP. The major RFA-related complications were assessed. Results: Overall, 83, 34, 80, and 14 patients were included in the ICT, ICWT, no-touch with ICT, and no-touch with ICWT groups, respectively. The cumulative LTP rates differed significantly among the four groups. Compared to tumor puncturing with ICT, tumor puncturing with ICWT was associated with a lower LTP risk (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] = 0.11, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0-0.88, P = 0.034). However, the cumulative LTP rate did not differ significantly between tumor-puncturing with ICT and no-touch RFA with ICT (aHR = 0.34, 95% CI = 0.03-1.62, P = 0.188) or ICWT (aHR = 0.28, 95% CI = 0-2.28, P = 0.294). An insufficient ablative margin was a risk factor for LTP (aHR = 6.13, 95% CI = 1.41-22.49, P = 0.019). The major complication rates were 1.2%, 0%, 2.5%, and 21.4% in the ICT, ICWT, no-touch with ICT, and no-touch with ICWT groups, respectively. Conclusion: ICWT was associated with a lower LTP rate compared to ICT when performing tumor-puncturing RFA. An insufficient ablation margin was a risk factor for LTP.

This study explored the effects of adoption of innovation and resistant attitude on farmers' perspectives and also was deigned for developing prompt spread of ICT and facilitating stronghold support center in the convergence agricultural field. To closely examine the variation for exploitation intent of stronghold support center in the ICT convergence agriculture, 110 farmers who had experienced introduction for ICT hybrid environmental control system were participated in the study using the questionnaire. The results revealed the several findings. Firstly, there was no significant differences between the self-efficacy such as confidence of application technology for farmers and adoption of innovative technique (p=.075). Secondly, suitability of using ICT hybrid environmental control system showed a significant difference in the adoption of innovation (p=2.750) while complexity of using ICT hybrid environmental control system indicated the negative effects on the adoption of innovation (p=3.591). Thirdly, introduction cost of ICT hybrid environmental control system showed the negative effects in the adoption of innovation (p=2.278), whereas adoption of innovation indicated a significant difference in the stronghold support center in the convergence agricultural field (p=5.500). Finally, resistance of ICT adoption of innovative technique revealed the negative effects on the stronghold support center in the ICT convergence agriculture. This study, therefore, demonstrated that educational assistance for acquiring ICT technique, suggestion of influences for productivity, and development for skills were needed to extend ICT convergence technology. Additionally, the study indicated the strategies related with promotion as well as ways of minimizing introduction cost.

For coronary procedures, X-ray angiogram images are useful for diagnosing and assisting procedures. It is challenging to accurately segment a coronary artery using only a single segmentation model in 2D X-ray images due to a complex structure of three-dimensional coronary artery, especially from phenomenon of vessels being broken in the middle or end of coronary artery. In order to solve these problems, the initial segmentation is performed using an existing single model, and the candidate regions for the sophisticate correction is estimated based on the initial segment, and the local patch-based correction is performed in the candidate regions. Through this research, not only the broken coronary arteries are re-connected, but also the distal part of coronary artery that is very thin is additionally correctly found. Further, the performance can be much improved by combining the proposed correction method with any existing coronary artery segmentation method. In this paper, the U-net, a fully convolutional network was chosen as a segmentation method and the proposed correction method was combined with U-net to demonstrate a significant improvement in performance through X-ray images from several patients.

An application of the EQS (Eradi Quake System) bearings to a short period building structure and the structure earthquake responses according to the design parameters of the EQS are studied by the ICT Center case study. The features of the EQS application to seismic isolated building structures are investigated, and the design procedure to determine the yield load and the secondary stiffness of the EQS is also studied. A computational analysis is performed to confirm the applicability of the EQS to the building structure and the earthquake responses according to the design parameters. The ICT Center in Indonesia is adopted as an application case of the EQS. The application of the EQS is found to extend the fundamental period of the ICT Center. Three types of EQS with different yield loads and secondary stiffness are designed and applied in the earthquake response analyses. The analysis results show the response of the structure with respect to the design parameters and which type of EQS is suitable for the ICT Center.
