This study presents an aerodynamic design and an experimental performance test of a turbo air compressor consisted of mixed-flow impeller and curved diffuser for the PEM fuel cell vehicle application. Many studies compare the efficiency, cost or noise level of high-pressure and low-pressure operation of PEM fuel cell systems. Pressure ratio 2.2:1 is considered as design target The goal of compressor design is to enlarge the flow margin of compressor from surge to choke mass flow rate to cover the operational envelope of FCV. Large-scale rig test is performed to evaluate the compressor performance and to compare the effects of compressor exit pipe volume to stall or surge characteristics. The results show that the mixed-flow compressor designed has large flow margin, and the flow margin of compressor configuration with small exit volume is larger than that with large exit volume.

This study analyzed the influence of firing biogas on the performance and operation of a gas turbine combined heat and power (CHP) system. A reference CHP system designed with natural gas fuel was set up and off-design simulation was made to investigate the impact of firing biogas in the system. Changes in critical operating parameters such as compressor surge margin and turbine blade temperature caused by firing biogas were examined, and a couple of operating schemes to mitigate their changes were simulated. Part load operation of the biogas-fired system was compared with that of natural-gas fired system, and it was found that as long as the two system produce the same electric power output, they exhibit nearly the same heat recovery.

This paper presents a numerical study of casing treatments on a centrifugal compressor stage to improve stability and the surge margin. High efficiency, a high pressure ratio, and a wide operating range are required for a high performance centrifugal compressor. In the present study, a ring groove arrangement was applied to the transonic centrifugal compressor. According to the numerical analysis using a commercial code ANSYS-CFX, the unstable phenomena limiting the range of the centrifugal compressors were compared with and without a ring groove. Although the ring groove decreased the efficiency, but increased the operating range by suppressing a flow separation at the leading-edge of the impeller especially near shroud part. Newly designed ring groove arrangement improved the compressor performance and increased the operating range of the compressor.

In this study, we investigated the single dose toxicity and safety about water-extracted Galgeuntang. To evaluate single dose toxicity, 20 male and 20 female ICR mice were observed survival rates, general toxicity, changes of body weight for 14 days after single oral administration of 0 (control group), 1250, 2500 and 5000mg/kg Galgeuntang. And after 14 day, We observed autopsy. Compared with the control group, we could not find any toxic alteration in all treated groups (1250, 2500 and 5000 mg/kg). LD50 of Galgeuntang might be over 5000mg/kg and it is very safe to ICR mice.

This paper proposes the new narrow erase method to erase wall charges formed in an AC plasma display panel (PDP) cell. In the proposed method, pulse timing of switch at the sustain period is adjusted for inducing, a weak discharge. Then, after the narrow erase, the voltage of the X electrode is set to differ from that of the Y electrode. For the proposed method, the measured maximum address voltage margin was 38.3V at Y_Rest voltage of 100V and sustain voltage of 180${\sim}$185V. However, for the conventional method, in which the X and Y electrodes are set to be of equal voltage after the narrow erase, the measured maximum address voltage margin was 31.3V at Y_Rest voltage of 150V and sustain voltage of 180V. This result shows that the measured maximum voltage margin for the proposed method is about 7V(22%) higher than that for the conventional method.

현재 PDP는 차세대 대형 평판 표시장치로서 각광을 받고 있으며 빠른 속도로 개발이 진행되고 있다. AC PDP에서 가장 큰 문제는 위도 및 방전효율의 향상과 전력손실의 저감, 높은 contrast의 실현, 제품 가격의 저하 등에 관한 문제이다. 본 연구에서는 벽전압 전달곡선을 이용한 방전 동작 특성에 대해 고찰하고자 한다. 방전 유지전압 주파수가 변화할 때 방전 개시전압이 감소하나 메모리 마진은 거의 동일함을 보였다. Duty 비를 변화시키면 방전개시전압은 감소하는 경향이 있지만 방전유지전압은 거의 일정하였다.

통신이나 저장 매체에서 에러 정정을 위해 사용하는 비터비 디코더를 1에 해당하는 회로와 0에 해당하는 회로로 나누어 구성하고 각 출력 값의 크기를 비교함으로써 디코딩을 수행하는 구조를 연구하였다. 특히, 디코딩회로를 하드웨어 구현 시의 mismatching에 대비하기 위해, 경로에러를 증폭하여 두 회로 출력 값 사이의 마진을 크게 하는 방법을 제안하였다. 제안한 구조에 대한 시뮬레이션 결과 노이즈가 매우 심한 경우에도 높은 에러 정정 성능을 보였다.

Optimization using a hybrid multi-objective evolutionary algorithm coupled with response surface approximation has been performed to improve the performance of a transonic axial compressor with circumferential casing grooves. In order to optimize the operating stability and peak adiabatic efficiency of the compressor with circumferential casing grooves, tip clearance, angle distribution at blade tip and the depth of the circumferential casing grooves are selected as design variables. Three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with the shear stress transport turbulence model are discretized by finite volume approximations. The trade-off between two objectives with the interaction of blade and casing treatment is determined and discussed with respect to the representative clusters in the Pareto-optimal solutions compared to the axial compressor without the casing treatment.

This paper presents a study on the performance of NASA Rotor 37 with the casing grooves based on three-dimensional numerical analysis. Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations are solved on a hexahedral grid with the shear stress transport model as a turbulence closure model. The governing equations are discretized by a finite volume method. The validation of the numerical results is performed through experimental data for the total pressure ratio and the adiabatic efficiency. The investigation for an axial compressor with a smooth casing and the casing grooves is carried out to compare the performance parameters, for example, surge margin and efficiency, etc. The surge margin is improved in the case of the casing grooves while remarkable improvement of the efficiency is not produced. The result shows that the casing groove is beneficial to expand the operating range of NASA Rotor 37.

최근 Wi-Fi Alliance는 Wi-Fi 기반의 Peer-to-Peer(P2P) 규격인 Wi-Fi Direct 기술의 발표와 함께 인증을 진행하고 있다. Wi-Fi Direct 기술은 TV, 노트북, 프린터, 카메라와 같은 휴대기기 및 모바일 단말 등에 탑재되어 Access Point(AP) 또는 라우터와 같은 별도의 장비 없이도 단말 간 직접 통신을 통하여 기기 간 콘텐츠 및 서비스를 사용할 수 있는 기반을 제공하는 기술이다. Wi-Fi Direct 기술은 빠른 전송속도와 전송거리를 제공함으로써 향후 일부 영역에서 블루투스 기술을 대체할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 또한 향후 Wi-Fi Direct 규격의 전체 기능을 구현한 스마트폰이 출시된다면 사용자 경험(UX)을 극대화 시킬 수 있는 혁신적인 모바일 서비스를 제공할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 본 고에서는 Wi-Fi Direct의 업계 동향과 Wi-Fi Direct의 동작 원리를 표준 기술 규격서를 통해 분석하여 요약 정리한다.
