전력사용량이 산업발전과 더불어 기하급수적으로 증가하고 있으며, 한정된 공간내에서 대용량의 전력설비를 설치하기 위해 폐쇄형 배전반이 운영되고 있다. 한국전기안전공사에서 발표한 통계자료에 의하면, 고압이상 전기설비 검사결과 절연내력이 불합격인 경우가 다수 발생하고 있으며, 이는 아크 플래시 사고의 원인이다. 특히 수배전반의 경우 부하설비 또는 외부의 영향을 확인할 수 있는 장치 및 보호설비가 설치되어 있으나 자체 안전장치가 마련되어 있지 않아 자체사고를 신속히 검출하고 판단할 수 있는 기술이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 해상도가 낮은 저가의 열화상 센서에 고속 DSP를 사용하여 영상처리 기법인 이차원 보간 법으로 해상도를 올려서 사용하는 기술을 이용하여 아크에 의해 발생되는 열특성을 검출하고 검출된 데이터를 전송하여 전기화재사고를 미연에 방지할 수 있는 장치 개발을 위한 기초 특성조사를 실시하였다.

In Nd:YAG laser welding, evaluation methods of welding flaw are various. But, the method due to fume shape is difficult to classification of welding flaw. The Nd:YAG laser process is known to have high speed and deep penetration capability to become one of the most advanced welding technologies. At the present time, some methods are studied for measurement of fume shape by using high-speed camera and photo diode. This paper describes the machining characteristics of SM45C carbon steel welding by use of an Nd:YAG laser. In spite of its good mechanical characteristics, SM45C carbon steel has a high carbon contents and suffers a limitation in the industrial application due to the poor welding properties. In this study, fume shape was measured by infrared thermal camera that is non-contact/non-destructive thermal measurement equipment through change of laser generating power, speed, focus. Weld was performed on bead-on method. Measurement results are compared as two equipments. Here, two results are composed of measurement results of fume quantities due to fume shape by infrared thermal camera and inspection results of weld bead include weld flaws by ultrasonic inspector.

Recent advance of digital camera results in that image signal processing techniques are widely adopted to railroad security management. However, due to the nature of railroad management many images are acquired in low light level environment such as night scenes. The lack of light causes lots of noise in the image, which degrades image quality and causes errors in the next processes. 3D noise reducing techniques produce better results by using consecutive sequence of images. On the other hand, they cause degradation such as motion blur if there are motions in the sequence. In this paper, we use an adaptive weight filter to estimate more accurate motions and use the result of the adaptive filter to 3D result to improve objective and subjective mage quality.

반도체 가스센서에서는 가연성 및 탄화수소계 가스를 감지 하기 위해서 $100{\sim}500^{\circ}C$ 이상의 동작온도를 필요로 한며, 이에 따라 반도체식 가스센서의 마이크로 히터 소재는 고온에서 열적 안정성이 있는 소재가 요구된다. 현재 상용화되고 있는 반도체식 가스센서는 실리콘(Silicon) 기반의 MEMS 기술을 이용한 가스센서이며, 구조적으로나 성능적 한계가 드러남에 따라 실리콘 이외의 다양한 재료의 MEMS 응용기술 개발이 필요한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 실리콘의 재료적 한계를 극복하기 위해 다공성 알루미늄 산화물(AAO)을 기판으로 사용하여 마이크로 히터를 제작하였다. AAO의 제작에 앞서 CMP, 화학연마, 전해연마를 이용하여 적합한 전처리 공정을 선정하였고, AAO 제작 시 온도, 시간, 전압의 변수를 주어 마이크로 히터 기판에 적합한 공정을 탐색하였다. 마이크로 플랫폼은 MEMS 공정으로 제작되었으며, PR(Photo Resist)을 LPR(Liquid Photo Resist)과 DFR(Dry Film Resist)로 각각 2종 씩 선택하여 AAO에 적합한 제품을 선정하였다. 제작된 마이크로 히터는 $1.8mm{\times}1,8mm$로 소형화 하였고, 열손실의 제어를 위해 열확산 방지층을 추가하였다. 구동 온도, 소비전력, 장시간 구동시 안정성의 측정 및 평가는 적외선 열화상 카메라와 kiethly 2420 source meter를 이용하여 측정하였으며, 열확산 방지층의 유 무에 따른 온도 분포 및 소비전력을 비교평가 하였다. 최종적으로는 현재 사용화 되어있는 가스센서들의 소비전력과 비교 평가 하여 논의 하였다.

The paper proposes a hierarchical fault detection method for the high voltage equipment using a microphone array which detects the location of fault and the thermal imaging and CCD cameras which verifies the fault and stores the image, respectively. There are partial arc discharges on the faulty insulators, which generates a specific pattern of sound. Detecting the signal using the microphone array, the location of the faulty insulator can be estimated. The 6th band-pass filter was applied to remove noise signal from wind or external influence. When the mobile robot carries the thermal and CCD cameras to the possible place of the fault insulator, the fault insulators or power transmission wires can be detected by the thermal images, which are caused by the aging or natural erosion. Finally, the CCD camera captures the image of the fault insulator for the record. The detection scheme of fault location using the microphone array and the thermal images have been proved to be effective through the real experiments. As a result of this research, it becomes possible to use a mobile robot with the integrated sensors to detect the fault insulators instead of a human being.

In a fire disaster in a tunnel, people should be rescued immediately using the information obtained from cameras or sensors. However, in heavy smoke from a fire, people cannot be clearly identified by a mounted CCTV, which is only effective in a clear environment. A thermal camera can be an alternative to this in smoky situations and is capable of detecting people from their emitted thermal energy. On the other hand, the thermal image camera has a smaller field of view than an ordinary camera due to its lens characteristics and temperature error, etc. In order to cover a relatively wide area, panoramic image construction needs to be implemented. In this work, a template-based similarity matching algorithm for constructing the panorama image is proposed and its performance is verified through experiments. This scheme provides guidelines for coping with difficulty in image construction, which requires an exact correspondence search for two images in cases of heavy smoke.

During liquid rocket engine combustion, the resulting combustion gas has flow characteristics of high temperature and high velocity. An experimental study was performed to obtain basic data for a flame deflector design that is endurable under such flow characteristics. While the injected-water cools down the combustion plume, temperature and pressure of the plume was measured. As the experiment is being performed, gas temperature was measured using infrared cameras, and the gas temperature data was compared with the temperature data from the sensor in the plume. With the results of this experiment, we were able to obtain applicable temperature data for flame deflector design and predict the performance and structural strength required for installation of water injector.

Aspheric lenses used in the thermal imaging are typically fabricated using expensive single-crystal materials (Ge and ZnS, etc.) by the costly single point diamond turning (SPDT) process. As a potential solution to reduce cost, compression molding method using chalcogenide glass has been attracted to fabricate IR optic. Thermal deformation of a molded lens should be compensated to fabricate chalcogenide aspheric lens with form accuracy of the submicron-order. The thermal deformation phenomenon of molded lens was analyzed ant then compensation using mold iteration process is followed to fabricate the high accuracy optic. Consequently, it is obvious that compensation of thermal deformation is critical and useful enough to be adopted to fabricate the lens by molding method.

Dry wall using steel stud has the advantage of possibility to install various building, so it used to many buildings inside and outside of the country very rapidly. Though Light gauge steel framed housing offers many advantages to the consumer and the builder, the use of steel studs in wall system cause thermal problems such as thermal performance and pattern staing on walls. The present study has been conducted to observe effect of stud by the shape, and two kind of stud is made for this test to compare thermal performance. The test was conducted by setting those stud on the chamber and heating them. As the results of test and photograping by using TVS, there was temperature gap of each stud, and surface temperature of each section was appeared differently due to shape of stud delaying thermal bridge.
