According to increase environmental pollutions and fuel costs, The study of energy saving in the ship is proceeding actively. PCS is pump control system for cooling system in the ship to improve the energy efficiency by controling rotation speed of sea water pump, fresh water pump and position of 3way valve. In this paper, we develop the PCS simulator that has an environment similar to the cooling system of the actual vessel to ensure reliability of the PCS. Also, PC-based control and data storage system for PCS simulator is developed. To develop this system, National Instrument's cDAQ and LabVIEW are used. Finally, confirm the behavior of the simulator by analyzing the saving data.

The aim of this study is to develop the dies oven for energy-saving during the pre-heated process of extrusion dies. Applying high-efficiency near-infrared heater, single cell type dies oven was developed as a substitute for traditional chest type oven. Therefore the dies is individually heated uniformly to operation temperature so rapidly. By using the developed dies oven, electric-energy consumption of preheating extrusion dies reduced up to 30% and the waiting time in the oven also minimized up to 90min. In addition, the results have shown that it is possible to accurately control the dies temperature for improving the quality of extruded profile and to minimize die bearing oxidation and nitride layer degradation responsible for surface defects on the profile and shorter die life.

The green IT technology is being introduced in diverse sectors, especially in the data center and green computer sectors. Rack-type PCs, which have been developed by improving the computer hardware, are effective for data centers and large businesses, but they are not usually introduced in small organizations such as small and medium businesses and schools because they require high initial costs. Power-saving PC software enables the inexpensive power control, but the installation of the power-saving software in all computers in the organization is not an easy task. Computer users in the organization are usually not cooperative as they do not think the power-saving cost is directly related to themselves. In this paper, a technique wherein the server has a restriction in providing the IP address to the computers that has no power-saving software is proposed, so that users will cooperate in the PC power-saving system to avoid inconvenience. In order to provide restricted IP address periodically, the server makes a request of power-saving software installation check for user's PC. Proposed technique is more effective ways to save computer energy, because it does not depend on specific systems or organizations.

In this paper, the optimum transmission method is proposed to save the energy and to increase the throughput of the adaptive modulation mobile radio system with frame length control. Traditionally, adaptive modulation has been used to improve the throughput using the power margin of the system design. Considering the frame length vs energy saving and adaptive modulation, the optimum transmission method is proposed for hub and mobile station each.

In this paper, a personal air-conditioning system considering the human thermal adaptability is analyzed. Although the conventional personal air-conditioner was proofed to be satisfactory in providing for the thermal comfort, it is being questioned on the term of its energy efficiency. Therefore, it is important and urgent to develop new types of personal air-conditioning system with sustainable control strategy that can ensure energy saving and thermal comfort simultaneously. In this study, we first examined the problems of the conventional personal air-conditioning system with field interview and laboratory experiment in terms of usage, management and thermal comfort, and proposed the energy-saving personal air-conditioning system considering the human thermal adaptation. Then a laboratory experiment was performed to analyze the characteristics of the human thermal comfort under severe indoor thermal conditions, which were controlled using a new personal air-conditioning unit designed according to the proposal. The results help to illustrate the alleviation effect of the new personal air-conditioning system, and indicate that the thermal alleviation time is useful to maintain the thermal comfort with efficient usage of energy.

Recently, a drain of energy resources is issued seriously. The daylight responsive dimming systems can reduce electric energy uses. But, we cannot predict amounts of energy-saving and accuracy of system performance. Therefore, the purpose of this study is a development of software for the system performance of daylight responsive dimming systems. The principle of this software based on luminous flux transfer method and finite elements method. The control algorithm of this software and daylight responsive dimming systems use the same algorithm. In addition the advantages of this software are use to same algorithm of daylight responsive dimming systems, electric power-luminous flux data and rates of frequency of sky conditions. Therefore, this software can predict more correct calculation about illuminance and amounts of energy-saving of daylight responsive dimming systems.

Although anti-freezing heating cable has been widely installed in most residential boiler pipe, there were excessive energy consumption and fire risk due to inadequate temperature control. In this paper, a new energy saving fire risk-free controller was developed by using microprocessing operation which include detection of not only boiler room temperature but also pipe surface one. Its actual effect has been verified to save more than a half of the energy consumption comparing to conventional controller through temperature and humidity chamber experiment.

Ecological society and energy conservative systems has become a subject of world wide attention. To examine the technologies of such systems as resource recycling society, this study is proposed for using rainwater as energy source and water resources in urban area. Useful informations for planning of utilizing rainfall as energy source, water resources, emergency water and controlling flood are discussed with model systems in urban area. It is calculated that the rate of utilizing rainwater, amounts of utilizing rainwater, substitution rate of supply water, amounts of overflow rainwater according to rain storage tank volume. By applying the past weather data, The optimum volume of rain water storage was calculated as 200m$^3$ which mean no benefits according to the increase of storage tank volumes. For optimum planing and control method at the model system, several running method of rainwater storage tank was calculated. The optimum operating method was the using weather data as 3hours weather forecast.

Method: To evaluate the effects by applying outdoor louver and indoor blind, which can control solar radiation in order to reduce the heating and cooling load of public office building which was built by glass curtain wall. The heating and cooling load was calculated via Energyplus, building and outdoor louver, indoor blind were modeled by Google sketchup connected to Energyplus. Result: The results of this study were as follows; the case of applying various outdoor louver, the heating and cooling load all decreased as compared to the case without applying outdoor louver, the case of applying indoor blind, the heating and cooling load decreased as compared to the case without applying indoor blind, but indoor blind showed low energy performance comparing outdoor louver.
