열전소자를 사용하여 발광다이오드의 발열을 개선한다. 열전소자(Thermoelectric device: TED)의 펠티에효과(Peltier effect)를 이용하여 발광다이오드(Light Emitting Diodes: LED)의 접합온도 (Junction Temperature)를 제어한다. 열전소자의 구동 전력을 제어하여, 발광다이오드의 사용 전류에 대한 접합온도의 특성을 조사한다. 열전소자의 입력 전력 0.2W에 대하여, 일반 조명용 또는 표시 장치로 사용되는 1W급 고전력 LED를 정격전류(350 mA)로 구동할 때 접합온도를 최저 $69^{\circ}C$로 유지할 수 있다. 열전소자의 구동 전력이 0.2W일 때, 발광다이오드의 접합온도 $110^{\circ}C$에 대하여 최대 사용 가능 전류는 560 mA로 예측된다.

LED light sources have been known to have a long life and good energy efficiency compared to traditional light sources. Recently, headlamps using LED light sources have ensured the forward visibility and safe operation of high-speed rolling stock. However, assessing the lifespan of LED headlamps based on real test data is not easy because it depends on the multiple stress factors such as a fixed driving current, junction temperature, vibration and so on. Generally, LED headlamps have failed before their advertised life span mainly due to temperature. Thus, the performance assessment of a temperature control unit should be done before a life cycle test of LED headlamps. This study attempted to develop a prototype temperature control module for a lifecycle test system using a commercial LED headlight and verified the system through experiments.

This paper presents an LED lighting system with an LED color control algorithm that can independently change its color temperature and illuminance. To show the validity of the proposed algorithm, it is proven that its solution always exists. The proposed algorithm was applied to the control of an LED module that is composed of red, green, blue, and white (RGBW) LEDs. Its color temperature variation ranged from 3,500~7,500[$^{\circ}K$], and its illuminance ranges from 500~1,500[lux]. Within these range, the color temperature and illuminance deviations are as low as $\pm0.8$[%] when the junction temperature of LEDs are maintained at 40[$^{\circ}C$]. In the range of 30~70[$^{\circ}C$], the measured illuminance and color temperature deviations are as low as 2.1[%] and 3.6[%], and the compensated ones are as low as 1[%] and 0.49[%], when the desired illuminance and color temperature are 1,000[lux] and 6,500[$^{\circ}K$], respectively.nyang.ac.kr).

LED는 기존조명에 비해 친환경적이고, 긴 수명을 갖기 때문에 현재에 이르러 광고조명이나 백라이트 유닛 그리고 실내 외 조명으로 각광받기 시작했다. LED를 조명으로 사용 함에 있어서 LED의 PN 접합부에서 발생하는 접합온도 상승을 고려해야한다. 접합온도 상승은 LED의 광 출력과 수명의 감소, 광색의 변화를 초래하기 때문에 광 출력 및 광색을 유지시키고, 수명을 예측하기 위해서는 LED의 접합온도를 일정하게 유지시키는 LED 전용의 전력제어 시스템이 필요하다. 본 논문은 LED 접합온도 측정 시스템과 구동전원을 설계 및 제작하였으며, 측정된 온도를 구동전원에 궤환시켜 접합온도를 일정하게 유지시키는 시스템을 제안하였다.

The efficiency of light-emitting diode (LED) devices is a significant factor that reflects the capability of these devices to convert electrical power into optical power. In this study, a method for estimating the efficiency of LED devices is proposed. An efficiency model and a heat power model are established as convenient tools for LED performance evaluation. Such models can aid in the design of LED drivers and in the reliability evaluation of LED devices. The proposed estimation method for the efficiency and heat power of LED devices is verified by experimentally testing two types of commercial LED devices.

In this paper, thermal analysis of HDU (Heat Dissipation Unit) for infrared CCTV is performed by using SolidWorks Simulation (Thermal analysis) package, in order to change the part materials and HDU shape is optimized. Furthermore, HDU disperses the aggregated heat around the LED inside the housing. The junction temperature of infrared LED checked by HDU check was $65.83^{\circ}C$, $42.02^{\circ}C$, respectively. In addition, the Thermoelement by changing the shape of the HDU was possibly designed and equipped with. Comparison with simulation and prototype measurement results, without HDU model was $65.83^{\circ}C$, $61.99^{\circ}C$, respectively. In addition to with HDU model was $42.02^{\circ}C$, $39.01^{\circ}C$, respectively. Only HDU mounted into infrared CCTV is usable in the ordinary house or outdoors. Also HDU with thermal element, fan mounted into infrared CCTV is usable in a blast furnace workplace or high temperature workplace.

Currently, LED headlamps are only attached to newly manufactured vehicles, and it remains difficult to mount LED headlamps on used cars. Therefore LED headlamps need to be developed for used cars as a replacement of their halogen lamps. Due to a number of spatial limitations, it is critical to ensure a certain level of thermal performance. In order to obtain a design for efficient heat radiation, this paper aimed to optimize thermal management through a combination of heat sinks, heat pipes and fans. Based on such a design, this paper succeeded in developing LED headlamps of the desired performance to replace the halogen bulbs of used cars.

This is the study on the development of fusion heat dissipation of carbon magnesium materials. The purpose of this study is for effective utilization of heat emission which is the core of LED lighting. The result of study enabled the derivation of side satisfying result of making the surface temperature of lighting to be below $70^{\circ}C$ (actual measurement: $58^{\circ}C$) using magnesium. The lighting products that use magnesium was made possible based on the result of this study. Also from the performance aspect such as light distribution, the measurement of light efficiency demonstrated the level of 90 lm/W. Therefore the commercialization of lighting was made possible and the efficiency could be further enhanced by supplementation of LED performance.
