  • An experimental study of molecular motions on a liquid-vapor interface is limited due to micro-scale characteristics of a system with an angstrom or a nanometer size Therefore, in recent, many studies for micro-scale systems have been conducted by a computer simulation because it is free from experimental limitations. In this study, through the molecular dynamic (MD) method. molecular behavior was clarified on a liquid-vapor interface and a criterion to distinguish between liquid and vapor was suggested by a potential energy and the number of neighboring molecules. At an interface. the potential energy of a molecule was increased but the number of neighboring molecules was decreased when the molecule moved into a vapor region from a liquid region, and vice versa.

  • India is a developing nation and heavily spends on the development of wind power plants to meet the national energy demand. The objective of this paper is to investigate wind power potential of Ennore site using wind data collected over a period of two years by three parameter Weibull distribution. The Weibull parameters are estimated using maximum likelihood, least square method and moment method and the accuracy is determined using R2 and root mean square error values. The site specific capacity factor is calculated by the mathematical model developed by three parameter Weibull distribution at different hub heights above the ground level. At last, the wind energy economic analysis is carried out using capacity factor at 30 m, 40 m and 50 m height for different wind turbine models. The analysis showed that the site has potential to install utility wind turbines to generate energy at the lowest cost per kilowatt-hour at height of 50 m. This research provides information of wind characteristics of potential sites and helps in selecting suitable wind turbine.

  • New and renewable energy systems(solar thermal system, photovoltaic system, geothermal system, wind power system) are environmentally friendly technologies and these in South Korea are very important measures to reduce greenhouse-gas(GHG) and to push ahead with Green Growth. The purpose of this paper is to analyze GHG mitigation potential by distribution of solar thermal system in housing sector with bottom-up model called 'Long-range Energy Alternative Planning system'. Business as usual(BAU) was based on energy consumption characteristic with the trend of social-economic prospects and the volume of housing. The total amount of GHG emission of BAU was expected to continuous increase from 66.0 million-ton $CO_{2e}$ in 2007 to 73.1 million-ton $CO_{2e}$ in 2030 because of the increase of energy consumption in housing. The alternative scenario, distribution of solar thermal system in housing sector had GHG mitigation potential 1.54 million-ton $CO_{2e}$ in 2030. The results of this study showed that new and renewable energy systems made a contribution of reducing the use of fossil fuel and the emission of greenhouse-gas in building.

  • Geothermal energy becomes to be one of the promising energy sources. In this study, technology using water thermal energy from riverbank filtration system(including alluvial and riverbed deposit) is reviewed and checked as an energy resources. The objects of this study are (1) long-term monitoring of alluvial and riverbed sites, (2) preliminary design of cooling and heating system at riverbank filtration facility, and (3) calculation of potential groundwater heat energy, including riverbank filtration system. Measuring data of alluvial and riverbank filtration show slight fluctuations comparing to temperature of atmospheric air which indicates that groundwater obtained from the riverbank filtration system have a sufficient potential as a source of cooling and heating energy.

  • This paper presents a method to apply energy margin for assesment of total transfer capability (TTC). In order to calculate energy margin, two values of the transient energy function have to be computed. The first value is transient energy that is the sum of kinetic and potential energy at the end of fault. The second is critical energy that is potential energy at controlling UEP(Unstable Equilibrium Point). It is seen that TTC level is determined by not only bus voltage magnitudes and line thermal limits but also transient stability. TTC assessment is compared by the repeated power flow(RPF) method and optimization method.

  • 처음 유기물의 인광 발견 이후 Host-dopant 시스템을 이용하여 Emission layer(EML)을 Co-deopsition 하는 방법으로 주로 인광 유기 발광 다이오드를 제작 하였다. [1] co-deposition을 이용해 만든 유기 발광 다이오드에 많은 장점이 있지만, 반대로 소자를 제작하는데 있어서는 많은 문제점을 가지고 있다. [2-4] 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위하여 co-deposition 대신 non-doped Multi Quantum Well(MQW) 구조를 사용하여 doping 하지 않는 방법을 이용하는 논문들이 보고 되고 있다. Hole, electron, exciton이 MQW 구조를 지나면서, dopant well 안에 갇히게 되고, 그 안에서 다른 layer 간에 energy transfer와, hole-electron leakage가 줄어 들어, 더 효율적인 유기 발광 다이오드를 만들 수 있게 된다. [5-7] 이 연구에서는 CBP를 Potential Barrier로 사용하고, Ir(ppy)3 (Green dopant), Ir(btp)2 (Red dopant) 를 각각 Potential Well로 사용하였고, 두께는 CBP 9nm, dopant 1nm로 하였다. 이러한 소자를 만들고 dopant를 3개의 well에 적당히 배치하여, 각 well에서의 실험적인 발광 량 과, EML 안에서의 발광 mechanism 그리고 각 potential barrier를 줄여가며 dexter, forster에 의한 energy transfer에 대하여 알 수 있었다.

  • Yanbian Korean Autonomous Prefecture(YKAP) possesses the potential to become the first testing ground for the North-East Asian Energy Cooperation in renewable energy sector. We found that production of biodiesel from rapeseed and CHP (Combined Heat and Power Plant) project utilizing abundant forest resources are the two main bioenergy development projects which may have further development potential considering the resource endowments and the focus of Chinese governments' current rural development policy. Provision of stable and transparent investment environments and the development of a close cooperation mechanism between Korea and China government are the prerequisite conditions for investments in the sector. Other international institutional agreements, such as CDM, shall be fully utilized for biomass CHP projects.

  • Conventional potential concept does not allow different currents before and after the electric load. Experimental examples in case of bioloads show a lot of different currents before and after the bioload, which means that the true potential concept is not the conventional concept from Coulomb attraction energy but the new concept from Gibb's free energy. Gibb's free energy is a kind of potential heat energies and also they are rotating electromagnetic waves. We might think that electric current is not a flow of electrons but a flow of rotating electromagnetic waves, which induces electrons' vibrations. A new measuring method for integral electrical power is suggested for the new Gibb's free energy concept.

  • Pyrene based molecule has been synthesized through the reaction of pyrene-1-carboxaldehyde and 4- phenylthiosemicarbazide in this research. The pyrene based molecule showed specific optical properties such as absorption and emission changes after mixing with fluoride in DMSO. The phenomenon is induced by the interaction of the molecule and fluoride. This interaction may affect to electron distributions and potential energy levels. In this regard, synthesized pyrene based molecule has been investigated for its electron distributions and HOMO/LUMO energy levels depending on interaction with fluoride. The absorption measurement, cyclicvoltammograms and computational method were investigated to calculate and compare energy potential levels.

  • Commercial wind farm design tools and the national wind map are used to determine the implementation potential of offshore wind power in Korea in this study. For this, the territorial waters of Korea were divided into nine analysis regions and a commercial CFD code was used to obtain wind resource maps at 100m A.S.L. which is the hub height of a 5MW wind turbine used in this study. With the wind resource obtained, factors including water depth, distance from substations, minimum and maximum capacity of a wind farm, distance between turbines and wind farms were considered to determine wind power potential. Also, the conservation areas, military zones, ports, fishing grounds, etc. were considered and excluded. As the result, a total capacity of 6,720 MW was found to be the implementation potential and this corresponds to $3.38MW/km^2$ in API. Also if the distance from the substation is not considered, the potential increased to be 10,040 MW. This offshore wind farm potential is considered enough to satisfy the target of wind farm capacities in the 7th national plan for electricity demand and supply.
