본 논문에서는 전기자동차 온-보드 충전기용 단상 cycloconverter-type high frequency link 컨버터의 전력 제어성능과 동적 응답특성을 개선하기 위하여 예측전류제어 기법을 적용한다. 배터리를 충전 및 방전하기 위하여 전력계통에 연결되는 V2G 충전기는 전압 변동, 고조파 왜곡 등의 외란 발생에도 강인한 동적 응답 특성을 유지하여야 한다. 예측전류제어 기법이 적용된 제어기는 계통 외란이 존재하는 경우에도 전력 레퍼런스를 빠르게 추적하고 정확한 듀티를 생성할 수 있으므로 우수한 동적 및 과도 응답특성을 갖는다. 제안하는 제어기의 성능과 파라미터 변동에 대한 민감도는 PSIM 시뮬레이션을 이용하여 평가되며, 여러 계통외란 상태에서 PI 제어기와 비교된다.

A small unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV), which uses a propulsion system consisting of electric motor and battery, weighs less than 8 kg, capable of hand launch. Because it is easy to operate and able to transmit image information in real time, the use of small UAV has been increasing. However, very few analysis methods or analysis results on flight performance of the small UAV have been known so far. In this paper, the performance analysis methods of a small UAV, which is manufactured to study an electric powered UAV, are suggested and their results are achieved. Aerodynamic data of the vehicle are obtained by making use of gliding performance from actual flight test, and required thrust and required power by flight speed are predicted. In addition, the methods to predict range and endurance in case of using battery as power source are suggested and their results are achieved.

Electrically powered airplanes can reduce CO₂ emissions from fossil fuel use and reduce airplane costs in the long run through efficient energy use. For this reason, advanced aviation countries such as the United States and the European Union are leading the development of innovative technologies to implement the full-electric airplane in the future. Currently, the research and development to convert existing two-seater engine airplanes to electric-powered airplanes are underway domestically. The airplane converted to electric propulsion is the KLA-100, which aims to carry out a 30-minute flight test with a battery pack installed using the engine mounting space and copilot space. The lithium-ion battery installed on the airplane converted to electric propulsion was designed with a specific power of 150Wh/kg, weight of 200kg, and a C-rate 3~4. This study confirmed the possibility of a 30-minute flight with a designed battery pack before conducting a flight test of a modified electrically propelled airplane. The battery performance was verified by dividing the 30-minute flight profile into start/run stage, take-off stage, climbing stage, cruise stage, descending stage, and landing/run stage. The final target of the 30-minute flight was evaluated by calculating the battery capacity required for each stage. Furthermore, the flight performance of the electrically propelled airplane was determined by calculating the flight availability time and navigation distance according to the flight speed.

기술 발전 속도가 빨라짐에 따라 부품의 개발기간이 단축되고 있다. 더욱이 최근에는 제품들의 신뢰성이 향상되어 가속수명시험을 실시하더라도 규정된 시험 시간 동안 고장을 발견할 수 없는 경우가 많이 발생하고 있다. 또한 현업에서는 성능열화에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있으며 특히 친환경차에 대한 관심이 많아지면서 연료전지 및 납-배터리의 가속열화시험법개발에 많은 관심이 증대되고 있다. 만약 고장이 발생하지 않는다고 해서 더 가혹한 스트레스를 인가하면 전혀 다른 고장 메커니즘이 나타날 수 있기 때문에 시험의 목적을 달성하기 곤란해진다. 따라서 이런 단점을 보완하기 위해 시간에 따라 정해진 시간마다 열화 특성을 갖는 특성치를 측정하여 수명을 예측하거나 신뢰성을 평가하는 열화시험, 가속열화시험을 이용한다. 본 연구는 열화데이터 분석 방법을 정리하여 현업에 적용 가능한 분석 과정을 제안하고 향후 연료전지 및 납-배터리 가속열화시험 적용방향을 제시하고자 한다.

무선 센서 네트워크(WSN)는 배터리 자원의 제약으로 인해 수명이 짧다는 문제와 많은 이웃 노드와 통신하는 노드의 에너지 소비가 증가하는 에너지 불균형 문제를 가지고 있다. 이를 해결하고자, 최근에는 태양 에너지 수집형 노드를 사용하여 에너지를 지속적으로 수집함으로써 배터리 자원 제약 문제를 해결하려는 연구들이 활발히 진행되고 있다. 기존의 배터리 기반의 WSN을 위하여 제안된 유명한 데이터 수집 기법인 CTP(Collection Tree Protocol)도 이와 같은 에너지 제약 및 에너지 사용 불균형 문제는 고려하지 않고 설계되었다. 따라서 정전 노드 발생 및 루프 발생과 같은 네트워크의 안정성이 심각하게 저하되는 문제를 내포하고 있었다. 이를 해결하고자, 본 논문에서는 태양 에너지 수집형 노드로 구성된 WSN을 위한 향상된 CTP 기법(Solar-CTP)을 제안한다. 제안된 Solar-CTP기법에서는 수집 에너지 및 사용 에너지양 예측을 통해 노드 동작 모드를 결정한다. 성능 검증을 통해 기존 CTP에 비해 Solar-CTP의 정전 노드의 수가 매우 적고, 싱크의 데이터 수집량이 많아진 것을 확인하였다.

The use of lithium-ion batteries increases significantly with the rapid spread of electronic devices and electric vehicle and thereby an increase in the amount of waste batteries is expected in the near future. Therefore, studies are continuously being conducted to recover various resources of cathode active material (Ni, Co, Mn, Li) from waste battery. In order to recover the cathode active material, black mass is generally recovered from waste battery. The general process of recovering black mass is a waste battery collection - discharge - dismantling - crushing - classification process. This study focus on the crushing/classification process among the processes. Specifically, the particle size distribution of various samples at each crushing/classification step were evaluated, and the particle shape of each particle fraction was analyzed with a microscope and SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy)-EDS(Energy Dispersive Spectrometer). As a result, among the black mass particle, fine particle less than 74 ㎛ was the mixture of cathode and anode active material which are properly liberated from the current metals. However, coarse particle larger than 100 ㎛ was present in a form in which the current metal and active material were combined. In addition, this study developed a PBM(Population Balance Model) system that can simulate two-species mixture sample with two different crushing properties. Using developed model, the breakage parameters of two species was derived and predictive performance of breakage distribution was verified.

Unused energy derived from sources in nature can be captured and stored for future use, for example, to recharge a battery or power a device; this process of capturing and storing energy is called energy harvesting. Extensive investigations are being carried out in order to use piezoelectricity to harvest the energy generated by body movements or machine vibrations. This paper presents a simple analytical model that describes the output voltage effectiveness of a Piezocomposite Generating Element (PCGE) from vibration and its experimental verification. PCGE is composed of carbon/epoxy, PZT, and glass/epoxy layers. During the manufacturing process, the stacked layers were cured at $177^{\circ}C$ in an autoclave, which created residual stresses in PCGE and altered the piezoelectric properties of the PZT layer. In the experiments, three kinds of lay-up configurations of PCGE were considered to verify the proposed prediction model and to investigate its capability to convert oscillatory mechanical energy into electrical energy. The predicted performance results are in good agreement with observed experimental ones.

차량 환경에서 발생하는 계산 집약적인 태스크가 증가하면서 모바일 엣지 컴퓨팅(MEC, Mobile Edge Computing)의 필요성이 높아지고 있다. 하지만 지상에 존재하는 MEC 서버는 출퇴근 시간과 같이 태스크가 일시적으로 급증하는 상황에 유동적으로 대처할 수 없으며, 이러한 상황을 대비하기 위해 지상 MEC 서버를 추가로 설치하는 것은 자원의 낭비를 불러온다. 최근 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle)기반 MEC 서버를 추가로 사용해 엣지 서비스를 제공하는 연구가 진행되고 있다. 그러나 UAV MEC 서버는 지상 MEC 서버와 달리 한정적인 배터리 용량으로 인해 서버 간 로드밸런싱을 통해 에너지 사용량을 최소화 하는 것이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 UAV MEC 서버의 에너지 사용량을 고려한 마이그레이션 기법을 제안한다. 또한 GRU(Gated Recurrent Unit) 모델을 활용한 트래픽 예측을 바탕으로 한 마이그레이션을 통해 지연시간을 최소화할 수 있도록 한다. 제안 시스템의 성능을 평가하기 위해 MEC의 마이그레이션 시점을 결정하는 기준점와 차량의 밀도에 따라 실험을 진행하고, 서버의 로드 편차, UAV MEC 서버의 에너지 사용량 그리고 평균 지연 시간 측면에서 성능을 분석한다.
