  • This paper presents a maximum power point tracking algorithm for Photovoltaic array using only instantaneous output current information. The conventional Hill climbing method of peak power tracking has a disadvantage of oscillations about the maximum power point. To overcome this problem, we have developed a algorithm, that will estimate the duty ratio corresponding to maximum power operation of solar cell. The estimation of the optimal duty ratio involves, finding the duty ratio at which integral value of output current is maximum. For the estimation, we have used the well know Lagrange's interpolation method. This method can track maximum power point quickly even for changing solar insolations and avoids oscillations after reaching the maximum power point.

  • Recently the critical nozzles with small diameter are being extensively used to measure mass flow in a variety of industrial fields and these have different configurations depending on operation condition and working gas. The curvature radius of the critical nozzle throat is one of the most important configuration factors promising a high reliability of the critical nozzle. In the present study, computations using the axisymmetric, compressible, Navier-Stokes equations are carried out to investigate the effect of the nozzle curvature on critical flows. The diameter of the critical nozzle employed is D=0.3mm and the radius of curvature of the critical nozzle throat is varied in the range from 1D to 3D. It is found that the discharge coefficient is very sensitive to the curvature radius(R) of critical nozzle, leading to the peak discharge coefficient at R = 2.0D and 2.5D, and that the critical pressure ratio increases with the curvature radius.

  • The stochastic phenomena of traffic network condition, such as traffic speed and density, are affected not only by exogenous traffic control but also by endogenous changes in service time during congestion. In this paper, we propose a mixed M/G/1 queuing model by introducing a condition-varying parameter of traffic congestion to reflect structural changes in the traffic network. We also develop congestion indices to evaluate network efficiency in terms of traffic flow and economic cost in traffic operating system using structure-changing queuing model, and perform scenario analysis according to various traffic network improvement policies. Empirical analysis using Korean highway traffic operating system shows that our suggested model better captures structural changes in the traffic queue. The scenario analysis also shows that occasional reversible lane operation during peak times can be more efficient and feasible than regular lane extension in Korea.

  • Predictions of vibration induced by subway operation has been studied through comparison between the measurement values and the estimated values which proposed by other scientists to determine the adequacy of each equation. It was found from this study that the Wilson's prediction equation gives the best overall approximation value although the peak frequency band lies somewhat higher than that obtained from measurement.

  • 제 4차 전력 수급 기본 계획에 의하면 2022년 계통에는 총 32기의 원자력 설비와 신재생 설비 용량의 약38%를 차지하는 풍력 설비가 신규 도입 된다는 것을 확인 할 수 있다. 하지만 원자력과 신재생에너지원은 화력 설비에 비해서 부하추종 능력이 저조하여 이 두 설비의 비율을 높이면 계통 운영에 심각한 문제를 발생 시킬 수 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 2022년 off-peak 계통 상황에서의 원자력 설비 32기가 모두 연계되었을 때, 계통 주파수의 안정도를 분석하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 계통에서 사용하는 각종 정수를 추정하고 이것을 이용하여 주파수 분석 시뮬레이션 tool을 통해 주파수 변화를 모의 하였다. 최종적으로 2022년 계통에서의 최적 전원 설비 구성을 제안하고자 한다.

  • 우리나라는 냉방부하로 인해 여름철에 연중 전력소모량이 크게 증가한다. 이로 인해 전력설비의 여유도가 낮아져 전력계통의 취약성이 높아진다. 전기사업자는 송 변전설비 신설 및 보강, 발전설비 조기 준공을 통해 최대전력 발생에 대비한 준비를 한다. 전력거래소는 여름철을 기준으로 신규로 운영되는 송 변전설비 및 발전설비를 고려하여 최적의 전력계통 운영방안을 수립한다. 이때 수립된 전력계통 구성은 겨울철 운영방안 수립 전까지 우리나라 전력계통의 기본 틀이 된다. 본 논문은 2011년도 여름철 최대전력 발생에 대비하여 수립한 전력계통의 최적 운영방안을 제시한다. 주로 전년도와 비교하여 올해의 계통변화 내용 및 상정고장 발생에 대비한 전압안정도 및 과부하 해소대책을 다루고 있다.

  • The cracking due to hydration heat in mass concrete must be resolved to improve the stability and durability of concrete structures. In this study, the economic efficiency was improved by replacing a copper pipe with a steel one for the heat pipe, and the heat pipe was standardized to significantly improve the operation efficiency, such as the processing, transport, assembly, and construction time. As a result of the experiment, the peak temperature of the ICSHP, ISSHP, and ISUHP specimens decreased by about $7.2{\sim}10.9^{\circ}C$ compared to the OPC specimen and the probability of a thermal crack being generated in the ICSHP, ISSHP, and ISUHP specimens decreased by up to 84~88%.

  • A parallel resonant dc link inverter, one of the many resonant inverters, has some superior characteristics in camparision with other resonant inverters. But loss of the resonant oscillation and occurrence of high peak voltage in the resonant capacitor of these inverters are serious problems. In this paper, we investigate a control method for resonant dc link inverters which can overcome these problems. Experimental results are presented to show superior operation of the resonant dc link inverter using the proposed control method.

  • In the future, hybrid power management systems using fuel cells (FCs) and batteries will be used as the driving power systems of ships. These systems consist of an FC, a converter, an inverter, and a battery. In general, an FC provides steady-state energy; a battery provides the dynamic energy in the start state of a ship for enabling a smooth operation, and provides or absorbs the peak or dynamic power when the load varies and the FC cannot respond immediately. The FC voltage range is very wide and depends on the load; Therefore, the FC cannot directly connect to the inverter. In this paper, we propose a power management strategy and design process involving a unidirectional converter, a bidirectional converter, and an inverter, considering the ship's operating conditions and the power conditions of the FC and the battery. The presented experimental results were verified through a simulation.

  • Recently the problem of energy branch become worse increasingly. Therefore many researches about new energy source are processing in several places around are processing in several places around the world. Especially solar energy has many advantages like as purity and infinity. Photovoltaic(PV) system can be classified into two types : One is stand alone type and the other is utility interactive one. Utility interactive type PV system need some technology that Maximum peak power tracking(MPPT) and Anti-islanding and Active Power filter(APF). For APF operation dc-link voltage should be high to supply sufficient output current which needed for harmonic current compensation so usually DC-DC converter is used for boost. In this paper DC-DC converter for PV system and controller for dc-link voltage control are analyzed and designed.
