Direct Carbon Fuel Cell(DCFC) is one of new power generation that the chemical energy of solid carbon can be converted into electrical energy directly. At the high temperature, the electrochemical reaction of the carbon takes place and the carbon reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide as followed overall reaction ($C+O_2{\rightarrow}CO_2$). However, in case of using the raw coals as a fuel of DCFC, the volatile matter containing carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen produces at operating temperature. In this study, the electrochemical reaction of Adaro coal was compared with Graphite. This work focused on the electrochemical reaction of two kinds of solid carbon by Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy(EIS). The EIS results were estimated by equivalent circuit analysis. The constant phase element(CPE) was applied in Randle circuit to explain an electrode and fuel interface. The correlation between the fuel characteristic and electrochemical results was discussed by elements of equivalent circuit of each fuel.

낸드 플래시 메모리 기반의 NVMe(Non-Volatile Memory express) SSD(Solid State Drive)는 멀티 I/O 큐 환경을 제공하는 PCIe 인터페이스 기반에 NVMe 프로토콜을 사용하는 저장장치이다. NVMe SSD는 Multi-core 시스템에서 병렬 I/O 처리가 가능하고 SATA SSD에 비해 대역폭이 크며 대용량의 저장 공간을 제공하기 때문에 데이터 센터, 클라우드 컴퓨팅 등에 사용될 차세대 저장장치로 주목받고 있다. 하지만 가상화 시스템에서는 소프트웨어 I/O 스택의 병목으로 인하여 NVMe SSD의 성능을 충분히 활용하지 못하고 있다. 특히, Xen과 KVM과 같이 호스트 시스템의 I/O 스택을 사용하는 경우에는, 호스트 시스템과 가상머신의 중복된 I/O 스택을 통해서 입출력이 처리되기 때문에 성능 저하가 크게 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 NVMe SSD에 직접 접근하는 기술을 KVM 가상화 시스템에 적용함으로써 가상 머신 I/O의 성능을 향상시키는 Direct-AIO (Direct-Asynchronous I/O)엔진을 제안한다. 그리고 QEMU 에뮬레이터에 제안한 엔진을 개발하고 기존의 I/O 엔진과의 성능 차이를 비교 및 분석한다.

In contrast to the high demand for MEMS devices, microflow analysis is not feasible even for single-phase flow with conventional Navier-Stokes equation because of non-continuum effect when characteristic dimension is comparable with local mean free path. DSMC is one of particle based DNS(Direct Numerical Simulation) methods that uses no continuum assumption. In this paper, gas flow in microchannel is studied using DSMC. Interfacial shear and flow characteristics are observed and compared with the results of gas flow that is in contact with liquid case and solid wall case. The simulation is limited to the case of equilibrium steady state and evaporation/condensation coefficient is assumed to be the same and unity. System temperature remains constant and the interfacial shear appears to be small compared to the result with solid wall. This is because particles evaporated and reflected from the liquid surface form high density layer near the interface with liquid flow.

The performance of an OLED(organic luminescent emitting device) fabrication system strongly depends on the design of the evaporation cell-source. Trends in display sizes have hauled the enlargement of mother glass substrates. The enlargement of substrates requires the improvement and the enlargement of the effusion cell-source for OLED evaporation process. The deposited layers should be as uniform as possible, and therefore it is important to know the effusion profile of the molecules emitted from the cell-source. Conventional 2D DSMC algorithm cannot be used for simulating the new concept cell-source design, such as a linear source. This work concerns the development of 3D DSMC (direct simulation Monte Carlo) analysis for simulating the behavior of the evaporation cell-sources. In this paper, the 3D DSMC algorithm was developed and the film thickness profiles were obtained by the numerical analysis.

The concept of temperature distribution in inhomogeneous semi-infinite solids is examined by making use of direct integration method. The analysis is done on the solution of the in-plane steady state heat conduction problem under certain boundary conditions. The method of direct integration has been employed, which is then reduced to Volterra integral equation of second kind, produces the explicit form analytical solution. Using resolvent- kernel algorithm, the governing equation is solved to get present solution. The temperature distribution obtained and calculated numerically and the relation with distribution of heat flux generated by internal heat source is shown graphically.

Point collocation method based on the fast derivatives approximation of meshfree shape function is applied to solid mechanics in this study. Enhanced meshfree approximation with approximated derivative of shape function is reviewed, and formulation of linear elastic solid mechanics by point collocation method is presented. It implies that governing equation of solid mechanics with strong form is directly formulated without no numerical integration cells or grid. The regularity of weight function is not required due to a use of approximated derivative, so we propose the exponential type weight function that is discontinuous in first derivative. The convergence and stability of the proposed method is verified by passing the generalized patch test. Also, the efficiency and applicability of the proposed method in solid mechanics is verified by solving types of solid problems. Numerical results show that not only a use of proposed weight function leads lower error and higher convergence rate than that of the conventional weight functions, but also the improved collocation method with derivative approximation enables to compute the derivatives of shape function very fast and accurately enough to replace the classical direct derivative calculation.

The amount of food waste and its water content depends on both the season and region. In particular, the water content typically varies between 73.8 wt.% and 83.3 wt.%, depending on the proportion of vegetables. Current food waste drying technologies are capable of reducing the water content to less than 10 wt.%, while increasing the heating value. Ongoing studies aim to utilize dried food waste as fuel. Food waste can be used to produce solid refuse fuel (SRF) by mixing it with various solid fuels or other types of waste. The analysis of specimens is very important when considering the direct combustion of food waste or its co-firing with solid fuels. In this study, the weight reduction of specimens after burning them in a small combustor, and compared with the results of thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The concentration of various chemicals was also measured to define the characteristics of waste generation. Performed proximate analysis, elemental analysis, TGA, combustion experiment, the heating value, and derivative thermogravimetry (DTG).

Purpose - In this paper, we, taking South Korea's foreign direct investment in RCEP partners as an example, will examine its investment efficiency in these countries and analyze the main influencing factors, making suggestions for further liberalizing and facilitating its investment in and even for promoting its trade and economic cooperation with them. Design/methodology - In this study, we look at the panel data of South Korea and the other 13 RCEP countries (Brunei excluded) from 2000 to 2019 and apply the stochastic frontier analysis to measure its foreign direct investment efficiency and explore the influencing factors in RCEP countries. We examine the investment potential of South Korea in these places. Findings - We find that South Korea's average investment efficiency in RCEP countries reached 0.62, indicating large investment potential. We also find that its investment efficiency in RCEP partners was heterogeneous. Our study reveals that South Korea's foreign direct investment is significantly positively correlated with the market size and population of the two countries, as well as with whether the host country has a coastline and rich natural resources, while negatively with geographic distance. It shows that free trade agreements, economic freedom, and regulatory quality play significant roles in improving investment efficiency. Originality/value - Through theoretical and empirical analysis, we deal with the efficiency and influencing factors of South Korea's direct investment in RCEP partners, proposing new drivers for facilitating its trade and investment in these countries and comprehensively evaluating the efficiency and revealing the trend of its FDI in these countries. In this paper, we put forward a solid theoretical basis for empirical analysis of the future economic and trade development between South Korea and its RCEP partners and give objective insights for further improving its foreign direct investment efficiency and tapping its investment potential.
