CIGS thin film solar cells are technically suitable for BIPV applications than regularly used crystalline silicon solar cells. Particularly, CIGS PV has lower temperature coefficient than crystalline silicon PV, thus decrease in power generation is lowered in CIGS PV. Moreover, CIGS PV can decrease shading loss when applied to the BIPV system, and the total annual power generation is higher than crystalline silicon. However, there are few studies on the installation factors affecting the performance of BIPV system with CIGS module. In this study, BIPV curtain wall unit with CIGS PV module was designed. To prevent increase of temperature of CIGS PV module by solar radiation, ventilation was considered at the backside of the unit. The thermal specification and electrical performance of CIGS PV of the ventilated unit was analyzed experimentally. Non-ventilated unit was also investigated and compared with ventilated unit. The results showed that the average CIGS temperature of the ventilated curtain wall unit was $6.8^{\circ}C$ lower than non-ventilated type and the efficiency and power generation performance of ventilated CIGS PV on average was, respectively, about 6% and 5.8% higher than the non-ventilated type.

This study was conducted to develop an automatic insulation system to reduce the heat loss through the wall of greenhouses during the nighttime in winter. A double covered model vinyl house was constructed, and blowers were used to fill or remove styrene pellets automatically the inside of the double-wall of the double covered vinyl house. The effects of insulation of the double covered vinyl house insulated with the styrene pellets were analyzed by comparing with the single covered vinyl house. The results obtained from this study can be summarized as follows : 1. The optimum thickness of the double-wall of the double covered vinyl house was found to be 5 to 10 cm. 2.When the outside temperature varied in the range of -8.3 to -1.5$^{\circ}C$ during the nighttime, the inside temperature of the double covered vinyl house insulated with the styrene pellets showed 7.7 to 11.7$^{\circ}C$ and the inside temperature of the single covered vinyl house showed -5.8 to 2.3$^{\circ}C$. Therefore, the effects of insulation of the double covered vinyl house insulated with the styrene pellets were confirmed to be excellent. 3. Also, the excessive increase of the inside temperature in the vinyl house was prevented by the shading effect of the double covered vinyl house insulated with the styrene pellets during the daytime. 4. When the outside temperature varied in the range of 17.7 to 30.0$^{\circ}C$ during the daytime, it was possible to keep the inside temperature at 30${\pm}$4$^{\circ}C$ in the double covered vinyl house by operating the insulation system. 5. The transmissivity of the double covered vinyl house with the styrene pellets removed was 52.4 % on the average.

The Differential Power Processing (DPP) converter is a promising multi-module photovoltaic inverter architecture recently proposed for photovoltaic systems. In this paper, a DPP converter architecture, in which each PV-panel has its own DPP converter in shunt, performs distributed maximum power point tracking (DMPPT) control. It maintains a high energy conversion efficiency, even under partial shading conditions. The system architecture only deals with the power differences among the PV panels, which reduces the power capacity of the converters. Therefore, the DPP systems can easily overcome the conventional disadvantages of PCS such as centralized, string, and module integrated converter (MIC) topologies. Among the various types of the DPP systems, the feed-forward method has been selected for both its voltage balancing and power transfer to a modified H-bridge inverter that needs charge balancing of the input capacitors. The modified H-bridge multi-level inverter had some advantages such as a low part count and cost competitiveness when compared to conventional multi-level inverters. Therefore, it is frequently used in photovoltaic (PV) power conditioning system (PCS). However, its simplified switching network draws input current asymmetrically. Therefore, input capacitors in series suffer from a problem due to a charge imbalance. This paper validates the operating principle and feasibility of the proposed topology through the simulation and experimental results. They show that the input-capacitor voltages maintain the voltage balance with the PV MPPT control operating with a 140-W hardware prototype.

Currently, BIPV (Building Integrated Photovoltaic) design technology lacks analysis function at the planning stage, and there is a lack of understanding and reliability of BIPV design method and system for building designers. To design and consider various building integrated solar design alternatives, the color of building integrated solar is often monotonous or does not match the design direction of the building. In this study, architectural designers can select various color modules in the planning and design process of the building and analyze the characteristics of color module solar cells and compare and analyze the actual solar radiation and predicted solar radiation in Republic ofKorea Seoul to reduce the confusion of design methods. By building a BIM design integrated system that can prove the quality of the building and analyze the shading analysis and power generation performance architecturally, it can improve the reliability of color module solar cell applicability that can express aesthetics in buildings and the predicted solar power generation capacity of each region. In the initial design stage, based on the empirical data of the BIPV system, it is possible to analyze the power generation performance for each installation angle and installation direction by analyzing the surrounding environment and the installation area, and accurately determine the appropriateness of the design accordingly.

본 논문에서는 가시광 통신시스템의 변조 방식과 각 변조 방식이 Dimming level에 미치는 영향을 분석하고, 지연신호로 인한 왜곡이 미치는 영향에 대해서 연구하였다. 현재 가시광 통신에서 가장 많이 사용되는 변조 방식들은 통신 성능은 증가하나 전체 조명의 밝기를 감소시키는 결과를 나타낸다. 연속적인 Burst Zero Duration이 발생하면 조명 기능이 심각하게 저하된다. 이는 조명뿐만 아니라 전체 시스템의 성능저하 시키게 되며 Flicker 현상을 유발한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 변조 기술과 조명-통신 성능의 관계를 분석하고, 신호지연으로 인한 왜곡이 발생하였을 경우에 가시광 통신 시스템에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 시뮬레이션을 통해 통신-조명성능이 가장 좋은 IPI-OOK의 성능을 분석하고 그에 따른 향후 연구방향을 제안하였다.

본 연구의 목적은 2단 베드 벤치 시스템에서 딸기를 재배하는 동안 상단베드에 의한 차광으로 광량 부족한 하단 베드에서 자란 딸기의 생산량 및 과일 품질에 LED 보광의 영향을 확인하기 위한 것이다. 딸기 전용상토로 충진된 2단 베드 벤치에 2015년 10월부터 2016년 1월까지 점적 관수로 딸기를 재배하였다. LED 광이 처리되지 않은 상단과 하단 베드를 대조구로 이용하였고, LED 광 처리를 위해서 오전 10시부터 오후 4시까지 하단 베드에 각각 청색, 적색, 그리고 청색과 적색을 혼합한 LED 광을 $100{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$의 광량으로 보광 하였다. 딸기의 수확량에 있어서, 하단 베드의 청색 LED 보광된 처리에서 자란 딸기는 하단 부분 대조구와 비교하여 유의하게 증가되었으며, 상단 베드 대조구에서 자란 딸기 생산량의 90% 수준까지 증가되었다. 청색 및 혼합 LED와 상단베드에서 생육된 딸기 과일의 유리당 함량은 적색 LED와 하단 베드 부위 대조구에 비하여 높았다. 안토시아닌의 함량은 자연 광을 많이 받는 상단 베드에서 생육된 딸기 과일이 가장 높았지만, 하단베드 처리만을 비교하할 때, LED를 보광한 모든 딸기과일이 보광하지 않은 하단 부분의 대구조의 딸기 과일보다 높았다. 따라서 딸기 2단 베드 재배 시 하단 베드에 청색 LED 보광이 생산 증대 및 품질 향상에 유리할 것으로 판단된다.

Grafting of fruit-bearing vegetables has been widely used to increase the resistance to soil-borne diseases, to increase the tolerance to low temperature or to soil salinity, to increase the plant vigor, and to extend the duration of economic harvest time. After grafting, it is important to control the environment around grafted seedlings for the robust joining of a scion and rootstock. Usually the shading materials and plastic films are used to keep the high relative humidity and low light intensity in greenhouse or tunnel. It is quite difficult to optimally control the environment for healing and acclimation of grafted seedlings under natural light. So the farmers or growers rely on their experience for the production of grafted seedling with high quality. If artificial light is used as a lighting source for graft-taking of grafted seedlings, the light intensity and photoperiod can be easily controlled. The purpose of this study was to develop a prototype system for the graft-taking enhancement of grafted seedlings using artificial lighting and to investigate the effect of air current speed on the distribution of air temperature and relative humidity in a graft-taking enhancement system. A prototype graft-taking system was consisted by polyurethane panels, air-conditioning unit, system controller and lighting unit. Three band fluorescent lamps (FL20SEX-D/18, Kumho Electric, Inc.) were used as a lighting source. Anemometer (Climomaster 6521, KANOMAX), T-type thermocouples and humidity sensors (CHS-UPS, TDK) were used to measure the air current speed, air temperature and relative humidity in a graft-taking system. In this system, air flow acted as a driving force for the diffusion of heat and water vapor. Air current speed, air temperature and relative humidity controlled by a programmable logic controller (UP750, Yokogawa Electric Co) and an inverter (MOSCON-G3, SAMSUNG) had an even distribution. Distribution of air temperature and relative humidity in a graft-taking enhancement system was fairly affected by air current speed. Air current speed higher than 0.1m/s was required to obtain the even distribution of environmental factors in this system. At low air current speed of 0.1m/s, the evapotranspiration rate of grafted seedlings would be suppressed and thus graft-taking would be enhanced. This system could be used to investigate the effects of air temperature, relative humidity, air current speed and light intensity on the evaportranspiration rate of grafted seedlings.
