The solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are the one of the most promising energy conversion devices which can directly convert chemical energy into electric power with high efficiency and low emission. The lowering operating temperature below 800 ℃ has been considered as the mostly considerable research and development for commercialization. The major issue is to maintain reasonably high performance of SOFCs at reduced temperatures due to increment of polarization resistance of electrodes and electrolyte. Thus, the alternative materials with high catalytic activities and fast oxygen ion conductivity are required. For recent advances in electrolyte materials and technology, newly designed, highly conductive electrolyte materials and structural engineering of them provide a new path for further reduction in ohmic polarization resistance from electrolytes. Here, a powerful strategy of the bilayer concept with various oxide electrolytes of SOFCs are briefly reviewed. These recent developments also highlight the need for electrolytes with greater conductivity to achieve a high performance, thus providing a useful guidance for the rational design of cell structures for SOFCs. Moreover, cell design, materials compatibility, processing methods, are discussed, along with their role in determining cell performance. Results from state-of-the-art SOFCs are presented, and future prospects are discussed.

This study is about ship horsepower prediction of machine learning method using the big data of ship. Currently, new ships use the ISO15016 method to predict external environmental resistance through mathematical equations but due to complicated equations and requires many input variables so it is less applicable to be used in ship. In this recent research, we propose a model capable of predicting ship performance with high performance using SVM (Support Vector Machine) algorithm which shows excellent performance in recent prediction and recognition. The proposed predictive model has the advantage of being able to predict better performance than ISO15016 only if secured big data is used. In this study, we compared the ISO15016 technique and the SVM algorithm-based horsepower analysis method using the 178K bulk carrier's voyage data to reduce ship model data preparation, which is a disadvantage of ISO15016, and improve inaccurate horsepower prediction performance.

In contrast to conventional electromagnetic motor, USM(Ultrasonic Motor), as piezoelectric ceramic applying ultrasonic mechanical vibration and as frictional-movement type motor, get rotational torque by elastic friction between stator and rotator, The USM, which is small motor without iron cores and coil as a simple structure, has little load weight, has character of high torque at low speed, and can apply a direct drive type without deceleration gear as low speed type. A response of USM from control input is satisfactory, and also generates much torque in low speed driving, and holding torque is much without supplying power. In this study, I designed and made Ultrasonic motor-digital multi controller(USM- DMC) using FPGA chip, A54SX72A made in Actel Corporation. By the minute, USM-DMC can control frequency, duty ratio, and phase difference of USM by llbit digital input from Pc. Therefore, when we use this controller, we can apply to typical parameter, frequency, phase difference, and voltage parameter, to control as well as we can do mixing control like phase-frequency, phase-voltage, frequency-voltage, frequency-phase-voltage, What is more, the strongest point is that it can trace frequency based on optimized frequency because we can input optimized resonant frequency while in motoring.

This paper addresses the conceptual design results of the HAUSAT-1 (Hankuk Aviation University SATellite-1), developed by Space System Research Lab. of Hankuk Aviation Univ., which is a new generation picosatellite. This project has been funded by Korean Government for the purpose of developing the space core technology. This is the first attempt at the level of university in Korea to develop the satellite weighing less than 1kg and accelerates opportunities with low construction, low launch cost space experiment platforms. The purpose of the HAUSAT-1 project is to offer graduate and undergraduate students great opportunities to be able to understand the design process of satellite development as a team member. Its mission objectives are to track its position by the GPS receiver system, to deploy the thin film solar cell panel to generate extra power, and to measure plasma density and temperature with the plasma sensor. The HAUSAT-1 will orbit at the altitude of 650 km with 65 degree inclination angle with 12 months of design mission life. It is planned to be launched on November 2003 by Russian launch vehicle "Dnepr".

Micro-vibration induced by on-board appendages that have mechanical moving parts has always been treated as an useless objective that has to be isolated, in order to comply with a high-resolution mission requirement of the observation satellite. In this study, we proposed a tuned mass damper energy harvester combined with a conventional passive vibration isolator for exhibiting dual functions of both electrical energy harvesting and micro-vibration isolation. The feasibility of the proposed dual-function complex system has been demonstrated through the comparison with numerical simulations, based on the results of basic characteristic tests, and experiments of the harvested power and micro-vibration.

The solar cell system operates by facing the sun-light. Minor cracks, static discharge, and thermal shock that can happen during production/testing phase can lead to degradation in performance during operation, since solar cells are exposed to extreme thermal/mechanical environment in space. In order to detect small cracks and internal damages in the solar cells due to thermal shocks, which are the core units of a solar cell system, expensive equipment, complicated test process, and much time are required. Therefore, a qualitative method for easily and quickly testing the 'health' of solar cell functionality is required. This dissertation describes a theoretical and technical grounds for quickly and easily evaluating the health of solar cells using electroluminescence effect of Gallium-Arsenide solar cells that are most widely used by spacecrafts in recent years. Also described in the dissertation is the technical issues and constraining factors for applying the proposed method to actual space-rated solar cell systems.

By increasing due to large-scale residential and commercial apartments or factories or were, and increases the length of the cable is connected from the electrical room, the thickness of the cable, the trend is also being gradually thicker to increase the power consumption. In this paper, the programs install the cable inserted in the rope a double bonded brake pipe to be laid underground in these cables, and to reliably collect various kinds of data such as a tension at the time of laying the cable, the distance and speed design, and the sample data was acquired through hardware making them. Through this, it was confirmed that, worker was significantly reduced and work time was shortened to the traditional mechanical laying equipment. And to obtain a performance of improving the reliability of operation, because the use of the working data to the management and evaluation.

Diamond-like carbon (DLC)박막은 높은 경도, 화학적 안정성, 높은 광 투과성을 가지고 있어, 공구강, 광학렌즈 및 플라스틱의 보호 코팅을 위해 응용되어진다. 본 연구에는 DLC 박막은 Silicon을 기반으로 하는 태양전지 반사 반지막으로 응용을 위해, 13.56 MHz RF 플라즈마 화학기상 증착 (RF-PECVD)법을 통해 합성되었다. DLC 합성 시 RF power는 150 W, 메탄 (CH4)가스의 유량은 6%~10% 조절되었다. 합성되어진 DLC 박막의 광학적 특성은 UV spectrometry, Ellipsometry를 사용하여 분석되었고, 경도는 Nano-indenter를 사용하여 측정되었다. 측정 결과 투과도와 굴절률 등의 광학적 특성은 탄소 조성비가 6%정도에서 가장 좋은 결과 값을 얻었으나, 물리적 특성인 경도는 탄소 조성비가 높을수록 증가하는 경향을 보였으며, Si기판과의 접착력은 32N 이상의 높은 값을 나타내었다. 결과로써, DLC 박막은 합성시 적절한 탄소 조성비를 통해 silicon을 기반으로 하는 태양전지 반사방지막으로 응용할 수 있다.

In this study, a dual fuel engine fueled with natural gas and diesel was tested to investigate the effects of heating value variation of CNG fuel. CNG substitution rate which is defined as the ratio of CNG and diesel supplied in a heating value basis was fixed at 80%. The higher heating value was varied from $10,400kcal/Nm^3$ to $9,400kcal/Nm^3$ by mixing nitrogen gas with pure CNG and diesel fuel was injected at a fixed injection timing. The engine test results showed that thermal efficiency and power output were decreased as the heating value of mixed CNG fuel was decreased. And the peak cylinder pressure was also decreased but the ignition delay time and the combustion duration and timing were almost same.
