As the oil price is dramatically jumping up, the consumption of LNG is rapidly expanding and the size of LNG carriers becomes bigger. For LNG ships, the application of DF (Dual-Fuel) engines gradually increases because of high efficiency, which alternatively use diesel or BOG (Boil-Off Gas) from cargo tank as a fuel. The surplus BOG from LNG cargo tank should be exhausted by GCU or liquefied through the BOG reliquefaction system and returned back. This study focused into its operational characteristics through the process simulation using HYSYS and discussed details on the influence of the variations of some operational parameters such as a distribution ratio by the change of fuel mass flow into the DF engine.

Power conversion system generally requires bidirectional converter. A storage energy of reactor is suppressed by regeneration of surplus electic energy in converter to power source. When an electric isolation in the power conversion system is required. the most suitable position for the isolation is the DC-Link part. A transformer in the DC part is minimized because of high repetition frequency. This paper proposes that power conversion system becomes bidirectional DC-DC converter with electric isolation by intergrated voltage control method. It is intergrated voltage control that makes system construciton simple, has control errow little quantity ans gets output response Quick. And the power-switches which should be operated is selected automatically without a detection of the current-direction.

상수관망 시스템(Water Distribution System, WDS)은 원활한 용수 공급을 위해 구축된 사회기반시설물로써, 물 공급절차에 따라 그 구성요소를 공급원, 공급 경로, 수요지 등의 범주로 구분할 수 있다. 원활한 물 공급이란 수요지에서 요구하는 수량과 압력 수준을 충족시키는 것을 의미하며, 따라서 상수관망의 용수공급능력은 요구 수량 및 압력과 실제 공급 결과를 비교함으로써 가늠할 수 있다. 과거에는 두 가지 기준을 별도로 산정하여 이를 평가하였으나, 유량과 압력을 함께 고려할 수 있는 에너지 기반의 평가 방법이 제시되면서 시스템 내 에너지 분포를 정량화하여 시스템의 용수공급능력을 평가하는 연구가 주목받고 있다. 세계적으로 많은 연구자들은 시스템 내 에너지 흐름 상태를 정량화함으로써 다양한 형태의 상수관망의 신뢰도지수(Reliability Index)를 제안한 바 있다. 이 때, 대부분의 신뢰도 지수 연구에서는 수요지에 공급된 에너지를 기본적으로 유지해야 하는 최소요구 에너지(Required Energy)와 비상 상황에 대응하기 위한 잉여 에너지(Surplus Energy)로 구분하고 있으며, 잉여 에너지를 상수관망의 공급 안정성을 나타내는 핵심 요소로 활용하고 있다. 확보된 잉여 에너지는 비상시 최소요구 에너지를 대체하는 개념에서 복원력으로 표현되어, 잘 알려진 Resilience Index(RI)를 비롯해 많은 복원력 지수가 존재한다. 본 연구에서는 복원력 지수를 포함한 세 가지의 신뢰도 지수를 적용하여 상수관망의 용수공급 상황 변화에 따른 시스템의 안정성을 분석하였다. 특히, 절점별 복원력 지수를 산정하고 그 분포를 공간적으로 도시하여 파악함으로써, 비상시 효율적인 운영을 위한 판단기준으로써 신뢰도 지수를 폭 넓게 활용할 수 있음을 제시하였다.

This study estimated the available renewable market potential based on Levelized Cost Of Electricity and then assessed the renewable derived energy self-sufficiency for the unit of local government in South Korea. To calculate energy self-sufficiency, 1 km gridded market renewable generation and local government scale of final energy consumption data were used based on the market costs and statistics for the recent three years. The results showed that the estimated renewable market potentials were 689 TWh (Install capacity 829 GW, 128 Mtoe), which can cover 120% of power consumption. 55% of municipalities can fully replace the existing energy consumption with renewable energy generation and the surplus generation can compensate for the rest area through electricity trade. However, it was confirmed that, currently, 47% of the local governments do not fully consider all renewable energy sources such as wind, hydro and geothermal in establishing 100% renewable energy. The results of this study suggest that energy planning is decentralized, and this will greatly contribute to the establishment of power planning of local governments and close the information gap between the central government, the local governments, and the public.

Microalgae are a promising alternative feedstock for biodiesel production because their growth rates and oil contents are higher than those of conventional energy crops. Microalgal lipid is mainly triacylglyceride that can be converted to biodiesel as fatty acid methyl esters through trans-esterification. In this paper, the influence of several important lipid inducing factors such as nutrient limitation and changes in salinity and metallic components in microalgae and their potential strategies to be used for biodiesel production are reviewed. Depending upon strains/species that we use, microalgae react to stresses by producing different amount of triacylglyceride and/or by altering their fatty acids composition. Although the most widely applied method is the nitrogen starvation, other potential factors, including nutrient surplus conditions and changes in salinity, pH, temperature and metal concentrations, should be considered to increase biodiesel productivity.

While the wireless sensor network has a strong point which does not have effect on whole activities of network even though neighboring sensor nods fail activities of some sensor nod or make some functions disappear by the characteristic of similar information detection, it has problems which is slowing down of wireless medium, transfer character with severe error, limited power supply, the impossibility of change by optional arrangement of sensor nods etc. This paper proposes PRML techniques which performs the fittest course searching process to reduce power consumption of entire nods while guarantees the scalability of network organizing sensor nods hierarchically. The proposed technique can scatter the load of cluster head by considering the connectivity with surplus energy of nod and reduce the frequency of communication among the nods. As a result of the analysis in comparison with LEACH-C and HEED technique, PRML technique get efficiency of average 6.4% in energy consuming respect of cluster head, efficiency of average 8% in entire energy consuming respect, and more efficiency of average 7.5% in other energy consuming distribution of network scalability than LEACH-C and HEED technique.

ESS(Energy Storage System) is an important source that keeps power supply stable and utilizes electricity efficiently. For example, ESS contributes to resolve power supply imbalance, stabilize new renewable energy output and regulate frequency. ESS is predicted to be expanded to 55.9GWh of installed capacity by 2023, which is 30 times more than that of 2014. To raise competitiveness of domestic ESS industry in this increasing world market, we have disseminated load-shift ESS for continuous power supply imbalance with FR ESS, and also necessity to secure domestic track record is required. However in case of FR ESS, utility of installing thermal power plant is generally generated within 5% range of rated capacity, so that scalability of domestic market is low without dramatic increase of thermal power plant. Necessity of load-shift ESS dissemination is also decreasing effected by surplus backup power securement policy, raising demand for new dissemination model. New dissemination model is promising for $CO_2$ reduction effect in spite of intermittent output. By stabilizing new renewable energy output in connection with new renewable energy, and regulating system input timing of new renewable energy generation rate, it is prospected model for 'post-2020' regime and energy industry. This research presents a policy alternatives of REC multiplier calculation method to induce investment after outlining PV-connected ESS charge/discharge mode to reduce GHG emission, This alternative is projected to utilize GHG emission reduction methodology for 'Post-2020' regime, big issue of new energy policy.

This study was conducted to prepare an incentive system (proposal) for the activation of waste-to-energy. Weights for each type of energy use were prepared by conducting prior research and economic analysis. In addition, the waste-to-energy incentive (proposal) was calculated in consideration of energy efficiency for each type of energy use. As a result of economic analysis of 11 biogasification facilities, the B/C value was found to be very diverse, ranging from 0.16 to 1.69. In terms of benefits, imports of waste treatment import fees were very high at 68.4 to 99.3% of the total, and four facilities with a surplus (+) or higher in the management balance. In order to convert energy consumption into units of sales volume, 0.58 Nm³/KW for power generation, 0.17 Nm³/kg for steam, and 1.00 Nm³/Nm³ for external supply were calculated using the 'scale factor'. The 'weight factor' was calculated as 0.249 for power generation, 0.656 for steam, and 0.806 for external supply, respectively, by use type.
