Research on flow channel designs of the separate plates is necessary to improve the PEMFC performance. On concerning the performance improvement of PEMFC, many recent studies have been made on the interdigitated flow channel using forced convection. In this paper, the interdigitated flow channel is similarly applied on the parallel flow channel with a baffle or baffles. Numerical analysis is performed by using a commercial multiphysics program, which is called COMSOL, on the parallel channel with the fully blocked baffle(FBB) and there are three variables, the position of baffle, flow direction and flow velocity. Each power of the variables is resulted from the fixed 0.5V, the voltage from 80 percents of the maximum power. Finally, based on the full factorial designs(FFD), one of the design of experiments(DOE), each factor which has several levels lead to the conclusion. The analysis of the main effects and interactions of the factors is useful to find the most influenced factor to improve the power.

고효율, 무공해의 신발전 기술인 연료전지 발전은 발전 용량 및 스택구성에 따라 차이가 있으나 기본적으로 저전압, 대전류 특성과 부하에 따라 발전 전압이 크게 변동하는 특성을 갖는 직류전원으로써 이를 상용으로 이용하기 위해서는 연료전지 발전 전력을 안정된 전력으로 변환하여 주는 장치가 필요하며, 이러한 전력 변환장치가 연료전지 발전의 최종 출력 전원의 질을 결정한다. 연료전지 전력변환장치는 전압조절기능, 승압 기능을 가져야 하고, 연료전지 본체와 부하를 안정하게 운전하기 위해 전력변환장치 뿐만 아니라 부하와 연료전지 본체의 운전상태 감지 기능, 각종 장치의 보호와 제어기능을 가져야 한다. 본 논문의 목적은 자동차용 연료전지 출력 전력변환장치의 종합제어장치의 설계를 위해 연료전지 스택시뮬레이터를 개발하는 것이다. 연료전지 스택 시뮬레이터는 연료전지 발전 특성과 일치하는 전력을 출력해 주는 직류전원 공급장치로써 이를 이용하여 연료전지 출력 전력변환장치의 종합제어장치를 충분한 예비실험과 수정, 보완함으로써 연료전지용 전력변환 시스템의 성능개선, 안정성 향상 등을 가질 수 있다.

We propose pulsed magnetic stimulation below 30W by the AC(60Hz) switching control of leakage transformer primary which has some advantage of cost and size compared to a typical pulsed power supply. Pulse repetition rate is adjusted from 5Hz to 60Hz to control magnetic stimulation output. In this magnetic stimulation, a low voltage open loop control for high voltage discharge circuit is employed to avoid the HV sampling or switching and high voltage leakage transformer is used to convert rectified low voltage pulse to high voltage one. A ZCS(Zero Cross Switch)circuit and a DSP & FPGA are used to control gate signal of SCR precisely. The pulse repetition rate is limited by 60Hz due to the frequency of AC line and a high leakage inductance. The maximum magnetic stimulation output was obtained about 33W at pulse repetition rate of 60Hz, total 40, 80, 120, $160^{\circ}$, SCR gate trigger angle $90^{\circ}$ and total output.

In this paper, a design of a GaN HEMT power amplifier using output matching circuit with arbitrary harmonic impedances is presented. The adopted GaN HEMT device, TGF2023-02 of TriQuint Semiconductor, was packaged in commercial package. The optimal impedances of the GaN HEMT package are extracted from load-pull simulation at package input and output reference planes. The targets of load-pull simulation are the highest output power at fundamental frequency and the highest efficiency at $2^{nd}$ and $3^{rd}$ harmonic frequencies. Because of fixture in the package, the extracted impedances shows arbitrary harmonic impedances. In order to match the optimal impedances, output matchin circuit which has 4 transmission lines is presented. Characteristic impedances and electrical lengths of the transmission lines are mathmatically calculated. The power amplfiier with $54.6{\times}40mm^2$ shows the output power of 8 W at the fundamental frequency of 2.5 GHz, the efficiency above 55 %, and harmonic suppression of above 35 dBc at the $2^{nd}$ and the $3^{rd}$ harmonics.

In the study, the effect of the ultrasonic energy in transportational diesel fuel on the engine performance and exhaust emission has been investigated for indirect injection diesel engine. It was tested to estimated change of engine performance and exhaust emission characteristics for the transportational diesel fuels and the reforming fuels which was irradiated by the ultrasonic energy. The results of the study may be concluded as follows; By the irradiation of ultrasonic energy on the diesel fuel, cylinder pressure, heat release rate and engine power were increased but bsfc, mass fraction burned, and smoke were reduced. Also, the combustion was more stabilized and became complete and NOx was increased.

In this Study, efficiencies of the scroll expander under development for organic Rankine cycle using engine waste heat of vehicle have been analyzed and compared with the commercial scroll expander. While operating organic Rankine cycle for analysing expander efficiencies, power of expander, inlet temperature of expander, inlet pressure of expander and the flow rate of the working fluid(refrigerant R134a) have been measured. Overall efficiency of the expander has been shown the very low level compared with the overall efficiency of the commercial expander. Especially, because the low volumetric efficiency has much effect on overall efficiency, the working fluid leakage trouble of expander has to be solved surely for improvement of the expander overall efficiency.

본 논문에서는 환경오염이 거의 없고, 무한한 에너지원인 태양광을 이용하여 발전하는 PV용 독립운전 전원공급장치를 제작하였다. 이 전원공급장치는 발전된 전기 에너지를 충전 컨트롤러를 통해 이차전지 및 독립운전인버터로 전달되어 상용전원으로 사용할 수 있게 된다. 또한, 독립운전 전원공급장치는 부하의 크기를 고려하여 각각의 장비를 선정하였고, 이차전지를 이용하여 주간에 저장된 전기에너지를 발전을 하지 않는 저녁에 사용하므로 단속적인 태양광에너지의 단점을 보완하였으며, 전원공급장치에서 실시간으로 출력되는 데이터 값을 IT기술을 통하여 감시할 수 있게 구성하였다. 마지막으로 이차전지 기술을 이용하여 독립운전 전원공급장치의 신뢰성을 높였다. 이는 상용전원 공급이 제한적인 개발도상국이나 독립적인 전원이 필요한 외진 곳의 수용가에게 전기 수요를 만족시킬 수 있을 것이라고 예상된다.

The Data Encryption Standard(DES) has been a worldwide standard for over 20 years. DES is one of the block encryption techniques which ciphers 64-bit input data blocks using a 56-bit private key. The DES algorithm transforms 64-bit input in a series of steps into a 64-bit output. Thus, it is impossible to deduce the plaintext from the ciphertext which encrypted by this algorithm without the key. This paper presents an implementation of RFID roader system using the DES algorithm. An implemented system enhances the credibility of the encryption algorithm by using the Cipher Block Chining(CBC). Experimental results also show that the implemented system has better performance over the conventional commercial product.

In order to respond to the public needs to utilize the newspapers as high-valued information resources, the number of the commercially available news items which are transformed into a form of database has been remarkably increased by the introduction of CTS into the newspaper companies. As for the domestically available Japanese and foreign newspaper article database, explanations are given to the following items. 1) Characteristics of database, such as date of coverage, frequency updating, time-lag, news sources, search terms, available information, etc. 2) Matters to be noticed at the utilization. 3) Pattern of utilization depending on the object of the investigation, such as the investigation of company, market trend, etc. Since the newspaper article database will be available in a form of digitized information, making the combination with the inter-company LAN system possible, increased opportunities to use it in near future are expected.
