  • In this study, the side reactions that greatly affect the coulombic efficiency of a zinc-air secondary battery are quantitatively analyzed on the basis of the charging-discharging characteristics, open circuit self-discharge characteristics, and a series of calculations. In particular, the charge amounts consumed by water electrolysis and self-discharge during charging process are separately determined so that the charging efficiency (the amount of charge used in actual charging with respect to the applied charge amount) can be estimated, which would enable systematic understanding of the cause of coulombic efficiency degradation. Using two cells with different charging overvoltages, the validity of the proposed method can be assessed.

  • The objective of this conducted research is to study the iodine removal efficiency in a self-priming venturi scrubber for submerged and non-submerged operating conditions experimentally and theoretically. The alkaline solution is used as an absorbent, which is prepared by dissolving sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and sodium thiosulphate ($Na2S_2O_3$) in water to remove the gaseous iodine ($I_2$) from the gas. Iodine removal efficiency is examined at various gas flow rates and inlet concentrations of iodine for submerged and non-submerged operating conditions. In the non-submerged venturi scrubber, only the droplets take part in iodine removal efficiency. However, in a submerged venturi scrubber condition, the iodine gas is absorbed from gas to droplets inside the venturi scrubber and from bubbles to surrounding liquid at the outlet of a venturi scrubber. Experimentally, it is observed that the iodine removal efficiency is greater in the submerged venturi scrubber as compare to a non-submerged venturi scrubber condition. The highest iodine removal efficiency of $0.99{\pm}0.001$ has been achieved in a submerged self-priming venturi scrubber condition. A mathematical correlation is used to predict the theoretical iodine removal efficiency in submerged and non-submerged conditions, and it is compared against the experimental results. The Wilkinson et al. correlation is used to predict the bubble diameter theoretically whereas the Nukiyama and Tanasawa correlation is used for droplet diameter. The mass transfer coefficient for the gas phase is calculated from the Steinberger and Treybal correlation. The calculated results for a submerged venturi scrubber agree well with experimental results but underpredicts in the case of the non-submerged venturi scrubber.

  • 본 논문은 시뮬레이션을 기반으로 자체 구동 롤러 컨베이어 물류시스템의 전력 효율을 분석하는 연구이다. 물류 시스템의 전력 효율 향상은 온실 가스 배출과 물류 비용을 감소시키는 이점을 가져온다. 자체 구동 롤러 컨베이어는 제품이 접근할 때에만 구동이 된다. 따라서 자체 구동 롤러 컨베이어 기반 시스템은 연속 구동 롤러 컨베이어 시스템에 비해 더 적은 전력을 소비한다. 본 논문에서는 DEVS(이산 사건 기반 시스템) 기반의 시뮬레이션 시스템을 설계하고 자체 구동 롤러와 연속 구동 롤러컨베이어 모델을 구축하였다. 설계된 시뮬레이션시스템과 컨베이어 모델의 검증과 확인을 위해 우리는 실험 환경에 대응하는 물류 모델을 모델링하고 모델과 실제 시스템간의 비교를 하였다. 본 연구의 주된 목적은 시뮬레이션 방법을 사용하여 자체구동 롤러 컨베이어 기반 물류 시스템의 전력 소비의 이점을 설명하는 것이다.

  • The article discusses the features of adaptation of the parameters of the physical layer of data transmission in self-organizing networks based on unmanned aerial vehicles operating in the conditions of "smart cities". The concept of cities of this type is defined, the historical path of formation, the current state and prospects for further development in the aspect of transition to "smart cities" of the third generation are shown. Cities of this type are aimed at providing more comfortable and safe living conditions for citizens and autonomous automated work of all components of the urban economy. The perspective of the development of urban mobile automated technical means of infocommunications is shown, one of the leading directions of which is the creation and active use of wireless self-organizing networks based on unmanned aerial vehicles. The advantages of using small-sized unmanned aerial vehicles for organizing networks of this type are considered, as well as the range of tasks to be solved in the conditions of modern "smart cities". It is shown that for the transition to self-organizing networks in the conditions of "smart cities" of the third generation, it is necessary to ensure the adaptation of various levels of OSI network models to dynamically changing operating conditions, which is especially important for the physical layer. To maintain an acceptable level of the value of the bit error probability when transmitting command and telemetry data, it is proposed to adaptively change the coding rate depending on the signal-to-noise ratio at the receiver input (or on the number of channel decoder errors), and when transmitting payload data, it is also proposed to adaptively change the coding rate together with the choice of modulation methods that differ in energy and spectral efficiency. As options for the practical implementation of these solutions, it is proposed to use an approach based on the principles of neuro-fuzzy control, for which examples of determining the boundaries of theoretically achievable efficiency are given.

  • The control of the SRM(Switched Reluctance Motor) is usually based on the non-linear inductance profiles with positions. So determination of optimal switching angle is very different. we present self-tuning control of SRM for maximum torque and efficiency with phase current and shaft position sensor During the sample time, micro-controller checks the number of pre-checked pulse. After micro-controller calculates between two data, it move forward or backward turn-off angle. When the turn-off angle is fixed optimal turn-off angle, turn-on angle moves forward or backward by a step using self-tuning control method. And then, optimal turn-off angle is searched once again. As such a repeating process, turn-on/off angle is moves automatically to obtain the maximum torque and efficiency. The experimental results are presented to validate the self-tuning algorithm.

  • 환경방사능과 같은 저준위 방사능 측정에서는 원통형과 Marinelli형 측정용기가 가장 일반적으로 사용된다. 효율교정용 표준선원과 측정시료의 높이 또는 매질의 밀도가 다르면 자체흡수 효과의 차이로 인한 보정이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 Monte Carlo 방법을 이용하여 HPGe 검출기의 전에너지 피크 효율을 계산하여 측정치와 비교하였다. 원통형 용기에 대해서는 높이에 대한 효율변화 정도를 계산하였고, 원통형 및 Marinelli 측정용기에 대해서는 밀도변화에 따른 효율을 계산하였다. 밀도에 따른 효율의 감소 정도는 1000keV 이하의 에너지 영역에 대해 자체흡수 효과의 보정치 필요하다는 것을 알았다. 또한 계산의 타당성을 검증하기 위하여 NIST SRM 4353 표준물질을 이용하여 계산값과 인증값을 상호비교한 결과 오차범위 이내로 잘 맞는 다는 것을 확인하였다.
