The distributions of mass flow rate and pressure are major factors to deside the performance of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). These factors are affected by channel configuration of air plate. In this paper. structural analysis is performed to investigate deformation of porous media. Two kind of models are suggest for flow analyses. Deformed porous media and undeformed porous media are considered for air plate model. The Numerical flow analysis results with deformed porous media and undeformed porous media had some discrepancy in pressure distribution. The pressure and velocity in a working condition are numerically calculated to predict the performance of the air plates. Distributions of the parameters in the PEMFC are analyzed numerically under steady-state conditions.

In this paper, we newly developed a byte-inverted transmission method for flicker-free visible light communication (VLC). The VLC transmitter sends original data in the former half period of the clock, and inverted data and in the latter half period of the clock. The VLC receiver receives the original data in the in the former half period of the clock. In this system, we used 480Hz clock that was generated from the 60Hz power line. The average optical power of the LED array in the transmitter is constant, thus flicker-free, in the observation time longer than the period of the clock that is about 2ms. This period is shorter than the maximum flickering time period (MFTP) of 5ms that is generally considered to be safe. This configuration is very useful in constructing indoor wireless sensor networks using LED light because it is flicker-free and does not require additional transmission channel for clock transmission.

조립작업에 있어서의 경로계획(path planning)에 대하여 지금까지 많은 연구가 진행되어 왔으며, 그것의 주종을 이루는 것들은 cell decomposition 방식과 potential field 방식이다. 이러한 방식들은 free space를 세분하거나 potential field를 계산하는데 많은 시간을 필요로 하며, 조립부품 이동영역이 configuration space로 먼저 치환이 되어야 하는 문제점들이 발생하게 된다. 그러므로, 만약에 조립부품에 대한 이동환경이 복잡하지 않고 알려져 있으면 위의 방식들은 비용적인 면에서 많은 낭비를 가져온다. 본 논문에서는 간단하면서도 알려진 작업환경에서 효과적인 조립부품의 경로계획 알고리즘을 개발하였다. 먼저, channel, junction 및 간격 유지계수(clearance gap)의 개념을 도입하고, 이 개념들을 이용하여 룰 방식의 알고리즘을 개발하였다. 그리고, 이 알고리즘을 이동용 로봇의 경로계획에도 적용될 수 있음을 보였다.

Fluid flows within microchannels are characterized by low Reynolds numbers. Therefore the effect of mixing is a crucial factor in design of the channels. Since the action of the electro-osmotic or magnetic forces used in the mixing enhancement is usually periodic in the three-dimensional channel configuration, use of the various concepts of chaotic advection is reasonable in the quantification of the stirring effect. In this paper, the details of the method of material-stretching mapping is explained. The actual application of the method to the screw extruder is also presented.

The image correction algorithm and system design for CMOS sensor to enhance the image resolution is presented in this paper. The proposed algorithm finds out the image cell from the sensor and process them by the limited memory configuration. The evaluation of the method is done by the designed hardware system. The experimental results are capable of improving contrast per channel and of sensing equalized image quality on an edge of image.

Noise reduction and a simplification of a precision measurement system has been performed by changing analog output mode of a load cell into digital output mode. Usually, analog output signal of a few $\mu V$ from a load cell are amplified by amp and acquired by A/D converter. If the distance from a load cell to a DAS(Data Acquisition System) increases, more noise signals are mixed. So, a microprocessor has been integrated into a load cell so that the amplification and A/D conversion of output signals could be done in close proximity to the lode cell for the reduction in mixing of noise. Obtained data from the load cell like this manner are transferred to a computer with digital values(of TTL level). To simplify the configuration of a multi-channel DAS, RS-485 communication system has used for data transfer.

Numerical analysis on a parallel flow heat exchanger(PFHE) is performed using 2 dimensional turbulent porous modeling. This modeling can consider three-dimensional configuration of passage (flat tube with micro-channels), and the stability and accuracy of numerical results are improved. The geometrical parameters(e.g., the position of separators, inlet/outlet, and porosity of passages of a PFHE) are varied in order to examine the flow and thermal characteristics and flow distribution of the single phase multiple passages system. The flow non-uniformities along the paths of the PFHE are observed to evaluate the thermal performance of the heat exchanger. The location of inlet affects the heat transfer, and the location of outlet affects the pressure drop. The porosity with the optimum thermal performance is around 0.53.

Performance of PEMFC is affected by many factors such as that of MEA, configuration of flow field, operating conditions, humidification, cooling and so on. In this study, in order to improve the performance of fuel cell, a small area fuel cell stack was made and its performance was tested under various operating conditions. Stack consists of 3 single PEM fuel cells. Channel is serpentine type and the active area of the electrode is $50cm^2$. The test results show that the peak power is 60W at $70^\circ{C}$ of stack temperature with humidification condition.

This paper briefly introduces a strategy of data links between EMS and SCADA systems for the KEPCO's EMS project. For the data links, front end/communication processors are adopted that provide for protocol conversion and communication processing in parallel with EMS/SCADA processing. The data link configuration for a communication channel is point to point links. The EMS - hardware and software - has capability of handling links utilizing both bisync protocol and X.25 (Level 1 and 2)protocol for the data link protocol.
