  • In this paper, a novel prototype of auxiliary switched capacitor assisted voltage source soft switching PWM Single-Ended Push Pull (SEPP) series capacitor compensated load resonant inverter with two auxiliary edge resonant lossless inductor snubbers is proposed and discussed for small scale consumer high-frequency induction heating (IH) appliances. The operation principle of this inverter is described by using switching mode equivalent circuits. The newly developed multi resonant high-frequency inverter using trench gate IGBTs can regulate its output AC power via constant frequency edge-resonant associated soft switching commutation by using an asymmetrical PWM control or duty cycle control scheme. The brand-new consumer IH products which use the newly proposed edge-resonant soft switching PWM-SEPP type series load resonant high-frequency inverters are evaluated using power regulation characteristics, actual efficiency vs. duty cycle and input power vs. actual efficiency characteristics. Their operating performance compared with some conventional soft switching high-frequency inverters for IH appliances is discussed on the basis of simulation and experimental results. The practical effectiveness of the newly proposed soft switching PWM SEPP series load resonant inverter is verified from an application point of view as being suitable for consumer high-frequency IH appliances.

  • In this paper we describe a distributed location management scheme to reduce the bottleneck problem of HLR in Large Personal Communication Networks (LPCNs). Using analytical modeling and numerical simulation, we show that replicating location information is both appropriate and efficient for small Personal Communication Network (PCN). Then, we extend the scheme in a hierarchical environment to reduce overhead traffic and scale to LPCNs. Through extensive numerical results, we show the superiority of our scheme compared to the current IS-41 standard scheme.

  • Purpose: Prefabricated modular space such as a container construction has recently been interested unlike the conventional construction method, and their scale have expanded from small buildings such as cafes, houses and pensions to shopping centers, complex cultural spaces where shows and exhibitions are possible doing. In this way, the container is in the spotlight as an advantage such as mobility, flexibility, correspondence, economic efficiency, recyclability and so on. However, there are no specific guidelines and standard design methods in aspects of structural calculation, functional insulation and environmental configuration. Therefore, as the first step to resolve these problems, this study has focused on the field of environmental performance of container construction, presented appropriate guidelines and searched ways to improve performances. Method: For this study, seven types of the modular building were chosen and compared, and their energy performances have been analyzed using a proven simulation tool. Essential methodology and terminology were examined to estimate and judge their efficiency. Result: In conclusion, energy performances depend on specific configuration of combined unit spaces, and design guidelines cold be set up for promoting their use in the practical field.

  • This paper presents a simple AC-DC power conditioner for a squirell-cage induction generator(IG) operating under variable shaft speeds. The necessary reactive power for the IG system is supplied by means of a capacitor bank and a voltage-source PWM converter. Using a capacitor bank to transfer the reactive power to the IG under the rated speed and no-load conditions starts the IG operation and reduces the PWM power converter size. A simple control compensating for changes in the electrical loads as well as the variation in speed was developed to regulate the voltages of the IG system by controlling the rotor flux through its reactive and active currents control implementation. This proposed power conditioning scheme can be used efficiently as a wind power generation system where the output voltage of the IG is maintained constant voltage despite the variable frequency and the DC bus voltage of the PWM converter can be used for either DC applications such as battery charging or AC power applications with 60/50 Hz by connecting a stand alone inverter. The experimental and simulated operating performance results of a 5 kW IG scheme at various speeds and leads are presented.

  • In a recently as renewable energy source photovoltaic(PV) system using solar energy has been very widely researched because of its pollution-free and infinity. Especially many researches are intensively focused on small scale utility interactive PV system which can use dead space and easily make power stabilized from unstable natural energy source. In this system one of the most important matters is islanding protection. Islanding phenomenon appears when power failure occurs. For the safety of utility interactive PV system must has the function of not only system protection but also detection of islanding. This paper describes parallel operating alghorithm using reactive power variation method and twin peak band pass filter. This alghorithm is verified useful by simulation.

  • 본 연구는 밭에서 발생하는 비점오염물질을 저감하기 위하여 기존의 볏짚거적을 이용한 저감방법에 PAM과 Gypsum을 처리하였을 때, 표면유출량과 기저유출량, 유사량 그리고 탁도 등에 미치는 영향을 모의하고자 하였다. 연구 방법은 인공강우 시험기와 토양상자를 이용한 실내실험을 통하여 지표피복재의 종류와 강우강도 그리고 경사도에 따른 직접유출량과 유사량을 측정하고 비교하였다. 경사도 (10 %, 20 %)와 강우강도 (30 mm/hr) 그리고 지표피복재의 종류에 따라 실험처리를 하였으며, 지표피복재는 볏짚(Rice straw mat)+PAM (Polyacrylamide)+Gypsum, 볏짚+PAM+톱밥 (Sawdust)+Gypsum, 볏짚+PAM+왕겨 (Chaff)+Gypsum으로 구분하여 제작하였다. 실험 결과 볏짚을 이용한 다양한 피복소재를 이용해 지표를 피복할 경우, 대조구(나지)에 대비 유출수량, 토양유실 그리고 탁도 저감에 큰 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 지표를 피복한 처리구의 평균 표면 유출수량은 대조구와 비교할 때 72~85.6 %가 저감되었다. 그러나 동일조건의 Gypsum을 첨가하지 않은 연구와 비교 시 Gypsum의 혼용으로 인한 효과는 크지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 세분화된 강우강도와 경사도 조건에 따른 실험이 필요하지만 본 연구의 결과에 기초할 때, 지표의 피복과 토양개량제를 첨가하는 방법은 강우 시 발생하는 표면유출수와 유사 그리고 탁수를 저감시킬 수 있는 최적영농관리방법 (Best management practice)의 하나로 판단된다.

  • 저수지에서 퇴사가 저수지에 미치는 영향으로는 저수용량의 감소로 인한 용수공급량 저하, 상류하천 수위 상승에 따른 홍수소통능력 감소로 인한 배수위 상승, 퇴적토의 용출에 의한 부영양화 촉진 및 중금속 퇴적 등의 수질변화, 퇴사로 인한 어류서식처 환경의 변화 등이 있다. 또한, 저수지로 유입되는 유사에 대한 정확한 예측은 댐의 계획 및 운영과 관련된 저수지 퇴사관계를 이해하는데 필수 요소이다. 즉, 저수지 퇴사에 관한 예측 자료는 댐 설계시에 장래 50년 및 100년 후의 저수위-저수용량 관계곡선을 결정하고, 댐의 사수위를 결정하는데 중요한 기본자료이며, 또한 댐 건설후의 저수지내로 유입되는 유사의 공간적 퇴적분포를 예측하고, 기능별 저수지 용량배분, 본체 및 취수구 등 각종 수리구조물의 안정, 저수지 상류 퇴사로 인한 홍수위의 상승 등 저수지 제 기능의 적정 관리를 계획하는데 필요한 기본자료이기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 저수지 내에서의 2차원적 하상변동을 해석하기 위한 퇴사 모델링 방법으로 2차원 정상 및 동수역학적인 유사이송과 하상변동을 모의할 수 있으며, 침식과 포착 및 이송 그리고 퇴적의 각 단계에 따라 세부모의가 가능할 뿐만 아니라 RMA2와 SMS 프로그램과 상호 연계가 자유로운 SED-2D 모형을 이용하여 댐 축조로 인한 저수지내의 퇴사거동을 모의한 후 하상변동을 분석하였다.

  • Choosing an appropriate sample unit is a fundamental decision in the design of ecological studies. While numer-ous methods have been developed to estimate organism abundance, they differ in cost, accuracy and precision.Using both field data and computer simulation modeling, we evaluated the costs and benefits associated with twomethods commonly used to sample benthic organisms in temperatc kelp forests. One of these methods, theTargeted Sampling method, relies on different sample units, each "targeted" for a specific species or group ofspecies while the other method relies on coefficients that represent ranges of bottom cover obtained from visual esti-mates within standardized sample units. Both the field data and the computer simulations suggest that both meth-ods yield remarkably similar estimates of organisnm abundance and among-site variability, although the Coefficientmethod slightly underestimates variability armong sample units when abundances are low. In contrast, the twomethods differ considerably in the effort needed to sample these communities; the Targeted Sampling requiresmore time and twice the persormel to complete. We conclude that the Coeffident Sampling metliod may be bettcrfor environmental monitoring programs where changes in mean abundance are of central conccm and resources arelimiting, but that the Targeted sampling methods may be better for ecological studies where quantitative reIation-ships among species and small-scale variability in abundance are of central concern.

  • 자연 현상에서 나타나는 연기나 난류의 움직임을 사실적으로 시뮬레이션을 할 때 Navier-Stokes 방정식을 이용한다. 이 방정식을 이용한 구현은 방대한 연산량과 계산의 복잡성으로 인하여 실시간 시뮬레이션이 어렵다. 이 때문에 실시간 처리를 위하여 복잡한 수식을 근사화한다. 유체 시뮬레이션의 이류(advect) 과정에서 근사화를 위해 Semi-Lagrangian 방법을 이용할 때, 연기 시뮬레이션은 시간이 지남에 따라 밀도가 현저히 줄어들고 소규모의 소용돌이(small-scale vorticity) 현상이 급격히 감소하는 등의 수치적 소실이 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 이류항(advection term)을 계산할 때 새로운 수치적 방법을 제안한다. 본 논문에서는 이류항의 값을 구할 때, 현재 격자 주변의 값 중에서 다음 단계에 현재 격자의 위치로 오는 속도를 가진 격자를 찾아, 그 격자의 속도를 이류 속도 벡터로 활용한다. 이는 밀도와 소용돌이 현상의 수치적 소실을 줄여서 사실성을 높이고 실시간 처리도 가능하게 한다. 또한 본 논문에서는 GPU 구현을 통해 벡터 연산 등의 효율성을 높이며 시뮬레이션의 속도를 향상시킨다.
