In this paper, we have investigated thermal properties of semiconductive shield materials for power cables. EEA (Ethylene Ethyl Acrylate) was used for base polymer and TGA (Thermal Gravimetric Analysis) and AFM (Atomic Force Microscope) were investigated with various carbon black and CNT (carbon nanotube) contents. When CNT reinforced composites and conventional composite were investigated with TGA, we knew that thermal properties of CNT reinforced composite were better than them of conventional composite. To investigate roughness, we used AFM. Before and after aging, AFM was applied and after aging, roughness was increased. As a result, suitable CNT and CB(carbon black) content is CNT:CB=50:50.

The unique nano-scale inter-lamellar microstructure and unparalleled heat treatment process give our developed metal powder composite its outstanding magnetic property for power inductor & motor applications. Compared to the conventional polycrystalline Fe or amorphous Fe-Cr-Si-B alloys, our unique designed inter-lamellar microstructure strongly decreases the intra-particle eddy current loss at high frequencies by blocking the mutual eddy currents. The combination of optimum permeability, magnetic flux and extremely low core loss makes this powder composite suitable for high frequency applications well above 10 MHz. Moreover, it can be also possible to SMC core for high speed motor applications in order to increase the motor efficiency by decreasing the core loss.

Composite right/left-handed transmission lines(CRLH-TL) 결합기를 이용한 outphasing E급 전력 증폭기를 2.4 GHz 대역에서 동작하도록 설계하였다. CRLH 전송 선로가 포함된 전력 결합기는 2차와 3차 고조파를 억제하여 선형성을 향상시켰다. 또한, 기존의 outphasing 전력 증폭기가 갖고 있던 출력 손실 문제를 해결하여 PAE 측면에서도 이점을 얻었다. 본 연구에서는 14 dBm의 전력이 인가되었을 때 31.8 dBm의 최대 출력 전압을 측정하였으며, 이 때 PAE는 약 50 %로 확인되었다. 선형성 향상을 확인하기 위한 IMD3 측정에서는 일반적인 기존의 ${\lambda}/4$ 전송 선로를 사용하는 outphasing 전력증폭기를 사용하였을 때보다 약 5 dB 정도의 향상을 확인할 수 있었다.

현재 해상풍력 발전 타워는 강구조로 제작되고 있으며, 발전용량의 증가에 따라 타워 구조체 또한 장대화 되는 추세이다. 강조조물의 특성상 좌굴에 취약하며, 장대화 됨에 따라 세장비가 증가하여, 좌굴 및 진동에 취약한 특성을 보이게 된다. 본 연구에서는 신형식 구조체인 이중관-콘크리트 합성 구조(DSCT; Double Skinned Composite Tubular)를 적용한 해상풍력 타워를 제시하고 요구 성능을 만족하는 최적 단면 설계를 제시하였다. 관은 섬유보강 합성수지 (FRP; Fiber Reinforce Polymer)와 강재를 적용한 경우를 고려하였으며, 모두 요구 성능을 만족하였다.

A double-skinned composite tubular (DSCT) wind power tower was suggested and automatic section design software was developed. The developed software adopted the nonlinear material model and the nonlinear column model. If the outer diameter, material properties and design capacities of a DSCT wind power tower are given, the developed software performs axial force-bending moment interaction analyses for hundreds of sections of the tower and suggests ten optimized cross-sectional designs. In this study, 80 sections of DSCT wind power towers were designed for 3.6 MW and 5.0 MW turbines. Moreover, the performances of the 80 designed sections were analyzed with and without considerations of large displacement effect. In designing and analyzing them, the material nonlinearity and the confining effect of concrete were considered. The comparison of the analysis results showed the moment capacity loss of the wind power tower by the mass of the turbine is significant and the large displacement effect should be considered for the safe design of the wind power tower.

One chambered sediment microbial fuel cell (SMFC) was equipped with Fe, brass (Cu/Zn), Fe/Zn, Cu, Cu/carbon cloth and graphite felt anode. Graphite felt was used as common cathode. The SMFC was membrane-less and mediator-less as well. Order of anodic performance on the basis of power density was Fe/Zn ($6.90Wm^{-2}$) > Fe ($6.03Wm^{-2}$) > Cu/carbon cloth ($2.13Wm^{-2}$) > Cu ($1.13Wm^{-2}$) > brass ($Cu/Zn=0.24Wm^{-2}$) > graphite felt ($0.10Wm^{-2}$). Fe/Zn composite anode have twisted 6.73% more power than Fe alone, Cu/carbon cloth boosted power production by 65%, and brass (Cu/Zn) produced 65% less power than Cu alone. Graphite felt have shown the lowest electricity generation because of its poor galvanic potential. The estuarine sediment served as supplier of oxidants or electron producing microbial flora, which evoked electrons via a complicated direct microbial electron transfer mechanism or making biofilm, respectively. Oxidation reduction was kept to be stationary over time except at the very initial period (mostly for sediment positioning) at anodes. Based on these findings, cost effective and efficient anodic material can be suggested for better SMFC configurations and stimulate towards practical value and application.

본 연구에서 고출력 LED를 개발하였고 등명기의 경량화 설계를 위한 복합재료의 적용에 대해 검토하였다. 복합재료의 적용을 통해 수직 변형량이 17% 감소하였고 전체중량은 알루미늄 소재 적용 대비 20% 감소에 해당하는 8.9 kg을 줄일 수 있었다. 방열 특성 측정 결과, 외기온도 $20^{\circ}C$ 조건에서 LED 패키지의 최고온도는 $63.5^{\circ}C$로 측정되었다. LED 패키지의 성능 및 수명을 고려할 때 적합한 온도 수준이다. 본 연구에서는 고출력 LED 등명기의 경량화를 위한 복합재료의 적용 가능성을 확인할 수 있었다.

This study deals the prediction of temperature effect on low-frequency dispersion of alternating current (AC) conductivity spectra of composite materials based on copolymer reinforced with carbon black (CB) particles. A sample of ethylene butylacrylate loaded with 13% of CB particles were prepared and investigated using the impedance spectroscopy representation in the frequency range from 40 Hz to 0.1 MHz and temperature range from $20^{\circ}C$ to $125^{\circ}C$. The dielectric constant, ${\varepsilon}^{\prime}$, and dielectric losses, ${\varepsilon}^{{\prime}{\prime}}$, were found to decrease with increasing frequency. The frequency dependence of the AC conductivity follows the universal power law with a large deviation in the high frequency region, the positive temperature coefficient in resistivity effect has been observed below the melting temperature which makes this composite potentially remarkable for industrial applications.

This paper describes the dielectric characteristics of composite dielectric film for pulsed power capacitors. The relative electric permittivity(${\varepsilon}'$) and the dielectric dissipation factor(tan$\delta$) were measured for polypropylene (PP) membranes, kraft paper for capacitors(CP) and composite dielectric films(PP+CP), respectively, in a frequency range of $1{\sim}10^4$[Hz], and in temperatures ranging from -50[$^{\circ}C$] to 110[$^{\circ}C$]. As a result, the variation of the electric permittivity was observed similarly for PP and CP. Dielectric dispersion was observed in frequency domain in PP, CP and composite dielectric films.

To address the need for new intelligent sensing, this paper introduces nano sensors made of carbon nanotube (CNT) composites and presents their preliminary experiments. Having smart material properties such as piezoresistivity, chemical and bio selectivity, the nano composite can be used as smart electrodes of the nano sensors. The nano composite sensor can detect structural deterioration, chemical contamination and bio signal by means of its impedance measurement (resistance and capacitance). For a structural application, the change of impedance shows specific patterns depending on the structural deterioration and this characteristic is available for an in-situ multi-functional sensor, which can simultaneously detect multi symptoms of the structure. This study is anticipated to develop a new nano sensor detecting multiple symptoms in structural, chemical and bio applications with simple electric circuits.
