Geothermal heat pump (GHP) systems have been proved to be one of the most efficient systems for heating and cooling in buildings. However, an optimal energy performance depends on a good control of the system components, including heat pumps and circulation pumps, which affect to the total energy consumption of system. This paper presents the simulation results of the heat pump performance for two different control schemes, i.e. constant setting temperature (Control-A) and variable setting temperatures (Control-B) in buffer tank. A dynamic simulation tool, TRNSYS 17, was used to model the entire system and to assess the performance of the system. Simulation results show that the Control-B, which controls the temperature in buffer tank with outdoor air temperature, is a effective way to reduce the energy consumptions in heat pump (7.7%) and circulation pump (7.5%).

In this paper, a temperature variation-insensitive power-up detector for use in analog and digital integrated systems has been proposed. To provide temperature-insensitive characteristic, nMOS and pMOS voltage dividers in the proposed power-up detector are made to have zero temperature coefficient by exploiting the fact that the effective gate-source voltage of a MOS transistor can result in mutual compensation of mobility and threshold voltage for temperature independency. Comparison results using a 68-nm CMOS process indicate that the proposed power-up detector achieves as small as 4 mV voltage variation at 1.0 V power-up voltage over a temperature range of $-30^{\circ}C$ to $90^{\circ}C$, resulting in 92.6% reduction on power-up voltage variations over conventional power-up detectors.

In order to reduce the offset and its temperature drift by the different properties of the piezoresistors and the residual stress of the piezoresistive pressure sensor, a double Wheatstone-bridge pressure sensor was studied. Because the compensation bridge was arranged near by the pressure sensitive bridge, which have the similar offset component, reduction of the offset and its temperature drift was realized by the mathematical subtraction of the output of two bridges. It was configured the compensation of the offset and its temperature drift. By this compensation method, the offset and its temperature drift were reduced approximately 95% respectively. The sensitivity of the fabricated pressure sensor was $11.7\;mV/Vkg/cm^{-2}$ for $0.9\;kgfcm^{-2}$ full-scale pressure range.

This paper presents a high accuracy and fast hybrid on-chip temperature sensor. The proposed temperature sensor combines a SAR type temperature sensor with a ${\Sigma}{\Delta}$ type temperature sensor. The SAR type temperature sensor has fast temperature searching time but it has more error than the ${\Sigma}{\Delta}$ type temperature sensor. The ${\Sigma}{\Delta}$ type temperature sensor is accurate but it is slower than the SAR type temperature sensor. The proposed temperature sensor uses both the SAR and ${\Sigma}{\Delta}$ type temperature sensors, so that the proposed temperature sensor has high accuracy and fast temperature searching. Also, the proposed temperature sensor includes a temperature error compensating circuit by storing the temperature errors in a memory circuit after chip fabrication. The proposed temperature sensor was fabricated in 3.3V CMOS $0.35{\mu}m$ process. Its temperature resolution, power consumption, and area are $0.15^{\circ}C$, $540{\mu}W$, and $1.2mm^2$, respectively.

The deterministic errors of semiconductor gyros and accelerometers must be estimated and compensated to develop the low-cost IMU using them. Generally, the dominant errors of the low-cost IMU are bias and misalignment errors. Bias is sensitive to temperature. Therefore, in this paper, the effect on temperature of bias is analyzed and temperature compensation are carryed out. It is shown by experiment that the compensation is efficient.

This experiment was conducted to investigate a cause of summer depression of cool season turfgrass, using nine cultivars in warm season and twenty-eight cool season turfgrasses. Even though an average of apparent photosynthesis(APS) per fresh weight was 13.09 mg $CO_2$/g/h in warm season turfgrass and 7.75 mg $CO_2$/g/h in cool season turfgrass, the Creeping bentgrass in cool season type was higher than Kikuyugrass and Bahiagrass in warm season type. The optimum temperature for the heighest APS was $30^{\circ}C$ in warm season type and $25^{\circ}C$ in cool season type. In $CO_2$ compensation point(CCP) as an index of dark respiration, it was higher in cool season turfgrass(75.6ppm) than warm season turfgrass(29.5ppm). In warm season type, even though the temperature increased from $25^{\circ}C$ to $40^{\circ}C$ the CCP was not increased. But the higher temperature rises the more increased CCP in cool season type. Dark respiration(DR) was higher in cool season type than warm season type under various temperature conditions, but the increasing ratio of DR with the temperature increment was not so much differed between two types.

본 논문에서는 DSP를 이용하여 운동하는 물체의 회전량을 측정하는 실린더형 진동 자이로스코프(이하 자이로) 제어기를 개발하였다. 진동 자이로를 구동하기 위해서는 정밀 진동제어와 신호 처리와 같은 고급 제어 기술이 필요하다. 정밀진동제어는 진동 자이로를 구동하기 위해 필요한 핵심기술로써 기존의 PLL(phase-locked loop)방식은 외부환경에 민감하여 구현이 까다로울 뿐만 아니라 자이로 개개의 고유 진동수가 다르기 때문에 대량 생산에 어려움이 있었다. 또한 자이로 출력 신호로부터 회전량을 검출하기 위해서는 진폭과 당향성 검출의 본 회로뿐만 아니라 잡음 제거와 신호 증폭, 온도 보상과 같은 전처리 과정도 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 DSP를 통해 정밀 진동제어와 잡음 제거, 방향성 검출 등의 기능들을 구현하였으며 증폭과 진폭(회전량) 검출은 아날로그 회로를 이용하였다. 또 한 외부와의 인터페이스를 위해 D/A 회로를 설계하였고 이들을 실험을 통해 검증하였다.

시멘트 모르터의 소성수축에 의한 균열을 방지하기 위해 소성수축 특성에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 우리나라 봄철의 대표적인 기후인 온도 20$\pm$3$^{\circ}C$, 상대습도 55%, 풍속 3.5m/s의 기후조건으로 하였으며, 모르터의 물 시멘트 비, 시멘트 골재 비, 팽창재 사용, 플라이 애쉬 치환, 수분증발을 억제하기 위한 중점제 등을 사용하여 소성수축의 특성을 검토하였다. 연구 결과 소성수축 변형은 응결시간과 밀접한 관계가 있으며 응결시간이 빠를수록 변형은 크게 나타났다. 또한 물시멘트 비에 의해서도 소성수축 변형은 큰 것으로 나타났다. 모르터에서의 골재 비율이 작거나, 플라이 애쉬의 치환율이 클수록 소성수축 변형은 매우 크게 나타났다. 중점제의 사용은 소성수축 변형을 줄이는데 효과가 있었으며, 건조수축 보상용 팽창재의 사용은 소성수축 변형율을 크게 하는데 이는 ettringite 생성에 의한 물 시멘트 비의 감소효과를 가져오기 때문이다.
