In this study, the W-interconnected dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) modules composed of a number of rectangular cells connected in series were investigated, where neighboring cells are processed in reverse. The DSSC modules, a module of dimension about 200 mm ${\times}$ 200 mm, were fabricated with different working electrode width ranging from 5 mm to 21 mm. The short-circuit current of the module increased as the working electrode width increased. Whereas, the decrease in the working electrode width resulted in the increase of the conversion energy efficiency, fill factor, and open-circuit voltage, which is explained by the fact that the possibility that electrons are recombined along their path on the transparent conductive oxide substrate decreases. The module with the conversion energy efficiency of 3.59% was obtained with the working electrode width of 5 mm.

This paper proposes a new zero-current switching (ZCS) pulse-width modulation (PWM) switch cell that has no additional conduction loss of the main switch. In this cell, the main switch and the auxiliary switch turn on and turn off under zero current condition. The diodes commutate softly and the reverse recovery problems are alleviated. The conduction loss and the current stress of the main switch are minimized, since the resonating current for the soft switching does not flow through the main switch. Based on the proposed ZCS PWM switch cell, a new family of dc to dc PWM converters is derived. The new family of ZCS PWM converters is suitable for the high power applications employing IGBTs. Among the new family of dc to dc PWM converters, a boost converter was taken as an example and has been analyzed. Design guidelines with a design example are described and verified by experimental results from the 2.5㎾ prototype boost converter operating at 40KHz.

The main function of fuel cell manifold is to render reactants distribution as uniform as possible into a fuel cell stack. The purpose of this study is to numerically investigate the effects of stack manifold design on reactants distribution within a fuel cell stack. Four manifold designs with different manifold entrance shapes (expansion or diffuser) and different values of the extra width between the cell outer channel and manifold side wall are considered and applied to the fuel cell stack consisting of 50 cells. Since the fuel cell stack geometry involves several millions of grid points for numerical calculations, a parallel computing methodology is employed to substantially reduce the computational time and overcome the memory requirement. The numerical simulations are carried out and calculated results clearly demonstrate that both the manifold entrance shape and extra width have a substantial influence on manifold performance, controlling the degree of flow separation and entrance length for fully developed flow in the manifold channel. Finally, we suggest the optimum design of fuel cell manifold based on the simulation results.

A novel 8 V DC power source with an external series-parallel connection of 50 Dye-sensitized Solar Cells (DSCs) has been proposed. One DSC has the optimized length to width ratio of $5.2{\times}2.6\;cm$ and an active area $8\;cm^2$ ($4.62{\times}1.73\;cm$) which attained a conversion efficiency of 4.02%. From the electrochemical impedance spectroscopic analysis, it was found that the resistance elements related to the Pt electrode and electrolyte interface behave like that of diode and the series resistance corresponds to the sum of the other resistance elements. Surface morphology and sheet resistance of Pt counter electrode did not degrade the performance of the cell. This novel 8V-0.33A DC power source shows stable performance with an energy conversion efficiency of 4.24% under 1 sun illumination (AM 1.5, Pin of $100\;mW/cm^2$).

The morphotaxonomic characters of the genus Spirogyra were investigated to clarify their taxonomic category and the variation range among species on the basis of comparative morphological and numerical analyses by unialgal cultures and field samples collected from various freshwater habitats in Korea. 25 characters selected on morphological feature of the species were examined on 568 individuals for morphological comparisons and numerical analyses. Width, length and their length/width ratio of vegetative cell, shape of septum, chloroplast number, maximum width, width, length and their length/width ratio of female gametangium, length of male gametangium, size and shape of zygospore, and cell wall ornamentation of the spore showed a comparatively high vector in principal component analysis. In cluster analysis, 15 taxa analysed were divided into 8 major groups by the average taxonomic distance 1.0 level. Considering the morphology and numerical analysis, Spirogyra crassoidea could not be recognized as an independent species, therefore it was treated as a variety of S. ellipsospora. S. koreana (nom. invalidum), recognized as a new taxon, is under the investigation for its clear taxonomic category.

Bipolar plates with channel width of 0.5 mm, 0.4 mm, and 0.3 mm respectively were printed using a 3D printer. The shape of three b ipolar plates was rectangular, the channel depth was 0.5 mm, and the thickness of base was 0.5 mm. The bipolar plate with channel width of 0.5 mm had 45 channels, and their active area was 44.5 mm × 50 mm. The bipolar plate with channel width of 0.4 mm had 57 channels and its active area was 45.2 mm × 50 mm, and the bipolar plate with channel width of 0.3 mm had 75 channels and its active area was 44.7 mm × 50 mm. The bipolar plates were printed using PLA filament. The cross-sectional lengths of the bipolar plates with channel widths of 0.5 mm and 0.4 mm were identical by 96% of the designed cross-sectional length. Whereas the bipolar plate with a channel length of 0.3 mm had a large difference of 25% from the designed cross-sectional length.

전산유체해석(CFD) 기법을 이용하여 음극 지지체형 고체산화물 연료전지(SOFC)에 대한 수치해석을 수행하였다. 평판형 구조의 SOFC 에서 가스채널과 리브폭 변화에 따른 성능과 온도균일성에 관한 연구가 이루어졌다. 전산해석 툴로서는 공개소스 전산유체해석 툴박스인 OpenFOAM 을 이용하였다. 수치해석결과, 산소고갈이 일어나지 않는 범위 내에서 가스채널과 리브폭의 증가는 성능과 온도 균일성에 크게 영향을 미치지 않음을 알 수 있었다. 하지만 넓은 리브폭의 사용과 고전류밀도에서의 작동은 산소고갈로 인한 성능저하의 가능성이 있음을 확인하였다.

본 논문은 상용 프로그램인 Fluent를 이용하여 고분자 전해질 연료전지(polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell)의 바이폴라 플레이트 위에 새겨진 유로형상을 분석함으로서 연료전지의 성능을 향상시키는데 그 목적이 있다. 수소 소모량이 가장 많은 유로크기를 구하기 위하여 0.5 ${\~}$ 3.0mm의 범위에 대해 시뮬레이션을 수행하였으며, 유로너비, 지면너비, 유로깊이가 적을수록 아노드에서 수소이용율이 높음을 알 수 있었다. 유로너비가 증가하면 유로의 전체길이를 감소하므로 유로에서 압력하락이 감소하게 되며, 지면너비를 증가시키면 수소가 지면 밑으로 확산하여 수소의 순 소비가 감소하기 때문이다. 또한 유로너비를 변화시키는 것은 지면너비를 변화시키는 것보다 수소 소모에 민감하게 영향을 끼침을 알 수 있었다. 유로깊이에 따른 수소 소모량의 변화는 유로너비에 비해 크지 않으나 유로깊이는 바이폴라 플레이트의 부피에 크게 영향을 미치므로 가능한 한 적게 하여야 한다. 그러나 현실적으로 기계가공이 가능한 1mm이상의 유로에서는 유로너비 1.0mm, 지면너비 1.0mm, 유로깊이 0.5mm에서 수소 이용율이 가장 높았으며 최적 유로크기로 판단된다. 시뮬레이션결과로부터 최적 유로크기로 성형한 2cm${\times}$2cm크기의 대각선형과 5자형 유동장에 MEA를 결합한 단위전지의 성능을 100W 연료전지평가시스템을 이용하여 측정하였다. 측정결과는 대각선형과 5자형에서 유사하게 높은 OCV가 나타났으며, 전류밀도는 0.6V이하에서는 대각선형이 $2-40mA/m^2$ 더 높았으나 0.7-0.8V에서는 S자형이 $5-10mA/m^2$ 더 높게 나타났다.질을 향상시키고 의료자원의 효율적인 이용을 촉진하기 위해 호스피스 완화의료 서비스의 표준화와 제도화가 필요하다.를 활용한 사용자인터페이스(UI)디자인의 가능성을 확대시킬 수 있을 것이다. 스크린의 사용에 있어서 사용자의 시각적 한계성을 극복하기 위한 새로운 GUI의 시도와 제안은 향후 모바일 기기 디자인의 새로운 방향성을 제시하고 있다.각되며 이를 위해서는 호스피스 관련 기관뿐만 아니라 국가적 차원의 아동 호스피스에 대한 관심과 지원이 요구된다고 생각한다. 양상과 일치하였고 표준조건(water flux 1 cm/일)에서 예측된 이동소요시간에 따라 metolcarb는 most mobile, molinate와 fenobucarb, isazofos는 mobile내지 most mobile, dimepiperate는 moderately mobile이나 mobile, diazinon은 mobile, fenitrothion과 parathion은 slightly mobile 또는 mobile, chloipyrifos-methyl은 immobile이나 slightly mobile 등급에 속하는 것으로 나타났다.히 요구되고 있는 현실이다.브로 출시에 따른 마케팅 및 고객관리와 관련된 시사점을 논의한다.는 교합면에서 2, 3, 4군이 1군에 비해 변연적합도가 높았으며 (p < 0.05), 인접면과 치은면에서는 군간 유의차를 보이지 않았다 이번 연구를 통하여 복합레진을 간헐적 광중합시킴으로써 변연적합도가 향상될 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.시장에 비해 주가가 비교적 안정적인 수준을 유지해 왔다고 볼 수 있다.36.4%)와 외식을 선호(29.1%)${\lrcorner}$ 하기 때문에 패스트푸드를 이용하게 된 것으로 응답 하였으며, 남 여 대학생간에는 유의한

Sputter deposition followed by surface treatment was studied using reactive RF plasma as a method for preparing titanium oxide $(TiO_2)$ films on the FTO $(SnO_2: F)$ substrate for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs). Anatase structure $TiO_2$ films deposited by reactive RF magnetron sputtering under the conditions of $Ar/O_2(5%)$ mixtures, RF power of 600W and substrate temperature of $400^{\circ}C$ were surface-treated by inductive coupled plasma (ICP) with $Ar/O_2$ mixtures at substrate temperature of $400^{\circ}C$, and thus the films were applied to the DSCs. We have chosen a solar cell width as a variable of a large-scaled DSCs and confirmed electric characteristics of an individual cell. As a result, the higher the internal resistance of DSC becomes, the wider the width gets. Internal resistance makes it difficult to collect photoelectron generated from dye. Ultimately up sizing DSC causes the increase of internal resistance and then has a bad effect on the cell characteristics.
