This paper presents a generalized expansion method for calculating reliability index in power generation systems. This generalized expansion with a gamma distribution is a very useful tool for the approximation of capacity outage probability distribution of generation system. The well-known Gram-Charlier expansion and Legendre series are also studied in this paper to be compared with this generalized expansion using a sample system IEEE-RTS(Reliability Test System). The results show that the generalized expansion with a composite of gamma distributions is more accurate and stable than Gram-Charlier expansion and Legendre series as addition of the terms to be expanded.

Water lubricated guide bearing was newly released and has been applied to actual hydro turbines with vertical shaft. As a result, they can have not only high bearing performance but environmental advantages in meeting the demand for reducing river pollution by oil leakage from oil lubricated guide bearing. The PTFE composite guide bearing was tested by experimental equipment operated under conditions similar to those of actual hydro turbines. Circumferential and axial tilting bearing segments help to improve the bearing performance and efficiency due to low friction loss in the bearing system. Furthermore, bearing cooling systems could be eliminated and maintenance periods could be extended, thus the initial investment and operating costs of the hydroelectric power plant are reduced.

As anode fabrication with different materials has been proven to be a successful alternative for enhancing power generation in the microbial fuel cells, a new approach to improved performance of MFCs with the use of menadione/carbon powder composite-modified carbon cloth anode has been explored in this study. Menadione has formal potential to easily accept electrons from the outer membrane cytochromes of electroactive bacteria that can directly interact with the solid surface. Surface bound menadione was able to maintain an electrical wiring with the trans-membrane electron transfer pathways to facilitate extracellular electron transfer to the electrode. In a single chamber air cathode MFC inoculated with aerobic sludge, maximum power density of $1250{\pm}35mWm^{-2}$ was achieved, which was 25% higher than that of an unmodified anode. The observed high power density and improved coulomb efficiency of 61% were ascribed to the efficient electron shuttling via the immobilized menadione.

In order to improve the quality of the billet continuous casting, a two-phase orthogonal power supply (TPOPS) for electromagnetic stirrer is researched, which is composed of three-phase PWM rectifier and three-leg inverter. According to the power analysis of system, the ripple of dc-link voltage is analyzed and its analytical expression is derived. In order to improve the performance of electromagnetic stirring, an integrated control method with feedforward control is proposed for PWM rectifier to suppress the fluctuations of dc-link voltage and provide a stable dc source for inverter. According to the simplified equivalent model, a composite current control method is proposed for inverter. This proposed method can combine the merits of feedforward control with feedback control to effectively improve the dynamic output performance of TPOPS. Finally, a 300kVA prototype of TPOPS is developed, and the results have verified the analysis and control method.

The energy storage systems are being widely researched for the electric power. The operations running in a vacuum chamber mainly consists of a composite flywheel rotor, superconductor bearings, a motor/generator and its controller. Among composed the apparatus, the floating magnet bearing consists of the ring-type permanent magnets with epoxy resin impregnation for reinforcement and surface protection. In order to storage as much energy as possible, the flywheel is supposed to be rotated with very high speed. The magnetic field is analyzed by using the Maxwell 2D/3D for the simulations.

In this paper, we analyzed the sensitivity of matching elements for the dual-band operation of a power amplifier with composite right/left-handed (CRLH) transmission lines. Metamaterial theory enables CRLH transmission to support arbitrary impedance matching at dual frequencies. In general, at sub-GHz range, the CRLH matching networks are commonly implemented with lumped elements, which are prone to manufacturing distribution. In order to reduce the effect from the distribution of element values in design, we suggest a method to analyze the sensitivity of matching elements from the performance aspect of power amplifiers. Based on the analysis, a 40dBm dual-band power amplifier operating at 0.7GHz and 1.5GHz is designed.

본 연구에서는 준설토 및 Bottom ash를 동시에 재활용하기 위하여 개발된 복합지반재료의 역학적 특성을 고찰하였다. 본 실험에서 제작된 복합지반재료는 부산 신항 건설현장에서 채취한 준설토, 시멘트, 기포 및 삼천포 화력발전소에 서 발생한 Bottom ash로 구성되어졌다. 다양한 배합비로 제작된 복합지반재료의 역학적 특성을 고찰하고, 특히 Bottom ash 혼합에 의한 역학적 거동 특성을 조사하기 위하여 다양한 실내실험이 수행되어졌다. 복합지반재료에 대한 실험결과 응력-변형 관계와 일축압축강도는 배합조건에 크게 의존하는 것으로 나타났고, 특히 Bottom ash 혼합시 압축강도 및 응력-변형 곡선의 기울기가 증가하는 Bottom ash 보강효과를 확인하였다. 복합지반재료의 압축강도는 양생기간이 증가할수록 증가하며, 28일 강도는 7일 강도의 약 $1.7{\sim}1.8$배 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 복합지반재료의 단위중량은 기포함량에 크게 의존하였다. 복합지반재료의 변형계수($E_{50}$)은 Bottom ash의 혼합으로 인해 강도가 증가함에 따라 증가되었다.

92.6%Fe-6.5%Si-0.9%Cr(wt%) 연자성 합금 박편을 폴리머 중에 분산시킨 준마이크로파 대역의 전자파 노이즈 흡수용 복합시트를 제조할 때, 시트 두께에 따른 전자파 전력손실(전송손실) 및 전자기적 특성과 내부 미세구조의 변화를 조사하였다. 시트두께 0.3~0.5 mm의 범위에서, 시트가 두꺼울수록 1~5 GHz의 주파수 대역에서 투과 파라미터 $S_{21}$의 값이 현저하게 낮아지면서 전력손실의 크기가 매우 증가하였다. 이 때 복소 투자율 및 자기 손실계수는 시트 두께가 변하여도 거의 비슷한 값을 가져 전력손실의 변화에 별 기여를 하지 못한 것으로 관찰되었다. 한편 복소 유전율은 시트의 두께에 따라 상당한 변화를 보여 1~5 GHz 대역에서 시트 두께가 두꺼우면 유전율 허수부의 크기가 증가하였는바, 내부 미세구조의 변화에 기인하는 것으로 추정되는 이러한 복소 유전율의 변화가 두꺼운 복합 시트의 큰 전력손실 즉 우수한 전자파 흡수 특성의 주된 원인인 것으로 판단되었다.

복합재의 사전변형률과 형상기억합금의 형상기억효과를 유발하는 형상기억합금의 상변화량과의 관계를 예측하기 위하여 Eshelby의 등가개재물법과 Mori-Tanaka의 평균장이론을 이용한 새로운 3차원 모델을 제안하였다. 복합재 모델은 가공경화 현상을 갖는 알루미늄을 모재로, 단섬유 TiNi 형상기억합금을 강화재로 사용하였다. 모델 해석에 의하면 사전 변형률이 지극히 작은 영역에서는 사전변형률이 모두 강화재의 형상기억 효과를 유발하고, 이 보다 큰 영역에서 사전 변형률은 강화재의 형상기억 효과와 모재의 소성변형에 의한 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 복합재의 강화기구는 모재의 가공경화 현상과 형상기억 효과에 의한 항복응력 증가를 분리하여 제시되어야 한다.

Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic(CFRP) composite with a higher specific strength and rigidity is more excellent than conventional metallic materials or other organic polymer of FRP. It has been widely used in vehicles, aerospaces and high technology industries which are associated with nuclear power fields. However, CFRP laminated composite has several disadvantages as like a delamination, matrix brittleness and anisotropic fibers that are the weak points of the crack initiation. In this present work, the reinforced silicon carbide(SiC) particles were added to the interlayer of CFRP laminates in order to mitigate the physical vulnerability affecting the cracking and breaking of the matrix in the CFRP laminated composite because of excellent specific strength and thermal shock resistance characteristics of SiC. The 1wt% of SiC particles were spread into the CFRP prepreg by using a spray coating method. After that, CFRP prepregs were laminated for the specimen. Also, the twill woven type CFRP prepreg was used because it has excellent workability. Thus the mechanical and fracture behaviors of the twill woven CFRP laminated composite reinforced with SiC particles were investigated with the acoustic emission(AE) method under a fracture test. The results show that the SiC particles enhance the mechanical and fracture characteristics of the twill CFRP laminate composite.
