Now, the study is activity that the energy market depending on a fossil fuel tend to change different way. In middle of the study compositive use of renewable energy(fuel cell and wind power, solar cell, etc.) is dispersion power system which concern is increasing. But in the case of generation of electric wind power system is changeable to be turbulence and wind and win speed are changeable in several seconds, so making the best of wind energy the MPPT that role in this case is important. In this paper suggest a MPPT which is making a use of information of wind speed and turning speed, windmill, electric power but it is simpler than former way. We could verify that a proposed controller working at the highest point of electric power when wind speed is regular speed and changable speed through the simulation.

Spatially rotating magnetic fields have been observed in the solar wind and in the Earth's magnetopause as well as in reversed field pinch (RFP) devices. Such field configurations have a similarity with extended current layers having a spatially varying plasma pressure instead of the spatially varying guide field. It is thus expected that magnetic reconnection may take place in a rotating magnetic field no less than in an extended current layer. We have investigated the spontaneous evolution of a collisionless plasma system embedding a rotating magnetic field with a two-and-a-half-dimensional electromagnetic particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation. In magnetohydrodynamics, magnetic flux can be decreased by diffusion in O-lines. In kinetic physics, however, an asymmetry of the velocity distribution function can generate new magnetic flux near O- and X-lines, hence a dynamo effect. We have found that a magnetic-flux-reducing diffusion phase and a magnetic-flux-increasing dynamo phase are alternating with a certain period. The temperature of the system also varies with the same period, showing a similarity to sawtooth oscillations in tokamaks. We have shown that a modified theory of sawtooth oscillations can explain the periodic behavior observed in the simulation. A strong guide field distorts the current layer as was observed in laboratory experiments. This distortion is smoothed out as magnetic islands fade away by the O-line diffusion, but is soon strengthened by the growth of magnetic islands. These processes are all repeating with a fixed period. Our results suggest that a rotating magnetic field configuration continuously undergoes deformation and relaxation in a short time-scale although it might look rather steady in a long-term view.

Solar cells in a PV module are connected in series and parallel to produce a higher voltage and current. The PV module has performance characteristics depending on solar radiation and temperature. In addition, the PV system causes power loss by special situations, including the shadows of the surrounding environment, such as nearby buildings and trees. In other words, an increase in power loss and a decrease in life cycle can occur because of the partial shadow and hot-spot effect. Therefore, this paper proposes the optimal configuration algorithm of a bypass diode to improve the output of a PV module and one of a PV array to minimize the loss of the PV array. In addition, this paper presents a model of a PV module and PV array based on the PSIM S/W. The simulation results confirmed that the proposed optimal configuration algorithms are useful tools for improving the performance of PV system.

Government has recently restricted heating and cooling set temperatures for the commercial and public buildings due to increasing national energy consumption. The goal of this paper is to visualize a future two way indoor set temperature control impact on building energy consumption by using TRNSYS simulation modeling. The building was modelled based on the twin test cell with the same dimension. Air source ground coupled heat pump performance data has been used for modeling by TRNSYS 17. Daejeon weather data has been used from Korea Solar Energy Society. The heating set temperature in the reference room is $24^{\circ}C$ as well as the target room set temperature are $23^{\circ}C$, $22^{\circ}C$, $21^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$. The cooling set temperature of the reference room is also $24^{\circ}C$ as well as the target room set temperature of $25^{\circ}C$, $26^{\circ}C$, $27^{\circ}C$ and $28^{\circ}C$. For the air source heat pump system, heating season energy consumption is $35.52kWh/m^2y$ in the reference room. But the heating energy consumption in the target room is reduced to 7.5% whenever the set temperature decreased every $1^{\circ}C$. The cooling energy consumption in the reference room is $4.57kWh/m^2y$. On the other hand, the energy consumption in the target room is reduced to 22% whenever the set temperature increased every $1^{\circ}C$ by two way controller. For the geothermal heat pump system, heating energy consumption in the reference room is reduced to 20.7%. The target room heating energy consumption is reduced to 32.6% when the set temperature is $22^{\circ}C$. The energy consumption in the target room is reduced to 59.5% when the set temperature is $26^{\circ}C$.

Most mono-crystalline silicon ingots are manufactured by the Czochralski (Cz) process. But If there are oxygen impurities, These Si-ingot tends to show low-efficiency when it is processed to be solar cell substrate. For making single-crystal Si- ingot, We need Czochralski (Cz) process which melts molten Si and then crystallizing it with seed of single-crystal Si. For melts poly Si-chunk and forming of single-crystalline Si-ingot, the heat transfer plays a main role in the structure of Cz-process. In this study to obtain high-quality Si ingot, the Cz-process was modified with the process design. The crystal growth simulation was employed with pulling rate and rotation speed optimization. Studies for modified Cz-process and the corresponding results have been discussed. The results revealed that using crystal growth simulation, we optimized the oxygen concentration of single crystal silicon by the optimal design of the pulling rate, rotation speed and melt charge level of Cz-process.

In this paper, the PV system with a link to the commercial system needs some advantages like small capacity, high power factor, high reliability, low harmonic output, maximum power operation of solar cell, and low cost, etc. as well as the properties of inverter. To transfer the PV energy of photovoltaic power generation system to the system and load, it requires PCS in both directions. The purpose of this paper is to confirm the stable power supply through the load leveling by presenting the PCS considering ESS of photovoltaic power generation. In order to achieve these purpose, 5 step process of operation mode algorithm were used according to the solar insolation amount and load capacity and the controller for charging/ discharging control was designed. For bidirectional and effective energy transfer, the bidirectional converter and battery at DC-link stage were connected and the DC-link voltage and inverter output voltage through the interactive inverter were controlled. In order to prove the validity of the suggested system, the simulation using PSIM was performed and were reviewed for its validity and stability. The 3[kW] PCS was manufactured and its test was conducted in order to check this situation. In addition, the system characteristics suggested through the test results was verified and the PCS system presented in this study was excellent and stronger than that of before system.

고효율 태양전지에서 후면 반사 방지막은 장파장대(900nm~1200nm) 빛의 내부 반사를 증가시켜 광흡수도를 개선한다. 태양전지 후면에 박형 절연층 구조를 구성함으로써 특정 파장에서 높은 반사도를 얻을 수 있는 Bragg mirror 구조를 이론적으로 계산할 수 있다. Bragg mirror 구조를 이용하여 태양전지의 후면 반사층(Rear reflector layer)을 형성함으로써 태양전지 내부의 광흡수도를 개선할 수 있다. 후면 반사 방지막(Rear anti-reflection coating)으로 사용되는 Al2O3와 SiOxNy 또는 이러한 두 가지 물질의 겹층 구조를 구성하여 장파장대 빛의 반사도 차이에 의한 광흡수도 개선 정도를 광학 시뮬레이션을 통해 계산하였다. 광학 시뮬레이션은 TCAD를 이용하였으며 두 가지 겹층 구조에서 각 반사 방지막의 두께에 따른 단락 전류(Jsc)의 개선 정도, 후면 반사층 두께의 최적화 조건을 계산하였다. 후면 반사방지막을 제외한 기본적인 태양전지 구조는 n-type PERC 구조를 사용하였으며, 후면 반사방지막만의 광학적 특성을 살펴보기 위해 전극은 광학적으로 투명하다고 가정하였다. 반사방지막 두께의 범위는 Al2O3(5-30nm), SiNx(150-300nm), SiOxNy(150-300nm)에서 수행하였으며, 각각 1nm, 2nm 간격으로 진행하였다. Al2O3/SiOxNy 구조에서는 단락 전류가 32.45-32.87mA/cm2 값을 가진다. Al2O3/SiNx 구조에서는 단락 전류가 32.59-32.87mA/cm2 값을 가진다. 결론적으로, 후면 반사방지막의 겹층 구조를 통해 광흡수도를 증가 시킬 수 있으며, TCAD 시뮬레이션을 통하여 입사되는 태양광 스펙트럼에 최적화된 구조를 설계할 수 있다.

현재 상용으로 많이 사용되는 p-type 태양전지는 Dopant로 사용된 Boron이 $O_2$와 결합하면서 Light induced degradation이 발생하여 태양 전지 효율의 감소를 불러일으키는 단점이 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 여러 가지 방법들이 제시되었는데 일반적으로 n-type wafer를 이용함으로써 Light induced degradation을 해결하는 방법이 주로 사용된다. n-type 태양전지를 제조함에 있어서 보다 높은 효율을 달성하기 위하여 태양전지 후면 구조에 local contact 개념을 도입하여 rear local emitter를 형성함으로써 전체적인 효율 증가를 도모하였다. 이러한 local contact을 제조하기 위해서는 전기적으로 구조적으로 고려할 사항들이 여러 가지 존재한다. 따라서 우리는 이러한 고려 사항들을 실험적인 방법으로 결정하는 것이 아니라, 정교한 변수 통제를 이용한 시뮬레이션으로 최종적인 효율 상승을 가져오는 조건을 찾으려고 한다. 이때 사용될 수 있는 시뮬레이션은 여러 가지 종류가 존재하는데 우선 상용 태양전지의 해석에 가장 많이 사용되는 PC1D프로그램이 있다. 그러나 PC1D의 경우에는 1차원의 해석만 가능하기 때문에 local contact의 2차원 이상의 구조 변화에 따른 최종적인 효율을 계산하는데 무리가 따르게 된다. 따라서 2차원 이상의 형상에 대한 분석이 가능한 프로그램을 이용하여 실제 셀에서 일어나는 현상을 더 정밀하게 모사함으로써 local contact에서 일어나는 전기적, 구조적 변화가 최종적인 효율에 어떻게 영향을 미치는지를 파악해볼 것이며, 어떤 구조를 선택하였을 때 가장 높은 효율을 달성할 수 있는지 알아보려고 한다.

In order to monitor local climatic information, twelve automated weather stations (AWS) were installed in alpine area by the Alpine Agricultural Experiment Station, Rural Development Administration (RDA), at the field of major crop located in around highland area, and collected data from 1993 to 2000. Hourly measurements of air and soil temperature (underground 10 cm,20 cm), relative humidity, wind speed and direction, precipitation, solar radiation and leaf wetness were automatically performed and the data could be collected through a public phone line. Datalogger was selected as CR10X (Campbell scientific, LTD, USA) out of consideration for sensers' compatibility, economics, endurance and conveniences. All AWS in alpine area were combined for net work and daily climatic data were analyzed in text and graphic file by program (Chumsungdae, LTD) on 1 km $\times$ 1 km grid tell basis. In this analysis system, important multi-functionalities, monitoring and analysis of local climatic information in alpine area was emphasized. The first objective was to obtain the output of a real time data from AWS. Secondly, daily climatic normals for each grid tell were calculated from geo-statistical relationships based on the climatic records of existing weather stations as well as their topographical informations. On 1 km $\times$ 1 km grid cell basis, real time climatic data from the automated weather stations and daily climatic normals were analyzed and graphed. In the future, if several simulation models were developed and connected with this system it would be possible to precisely forecast crop growth and yield or plant disease and pest by using climatic information in alpine area.

A curing process in post-printing section of R2R process is required for an electrical property of the printed pattern when devices such as RFID, Solar cell are printed. PEN as well as heat-stabilized PET which is used as a plastic substrate would be deformed at high temperature due to change of its elastic modulus. And crack in the printed pattern, which is on the plastic substrate is occurred due to the deformation of the substrate. The occurrence of crack causes electrical resistance to increase and the quality of the device to deteriorate. In case of RFID antenna, the range of reading distance is shortened as the electrical resistance of the antenna is increased. Therefore, the deformation of the plastic substrate, which causes the occurrence of crack, should be minimized by setting up low operating tension in R2R process. In low tension, slippage between a moving substrate and a roller would be generated when the operating speed is increased. And scratch would be occurred when slippage is generated due to an air entrainment, which is related to the thickness of the air film. The thickness of the air film is increased when operating speed is increased as shown by simulation based on mathematical model. The occurrence of scratch in conductive pattern printed by roll to roll process is a critical damage because it causes degradation or failure of electrical property of it.
