In this study, exergy analysis of a thermally activated refrigeration cycle, a combined organic Rankine cycle (ORC), and a vapor compression cycle (VCC) were conducted. It is considered that a system uses a low-temperature heat source in the form of sensible heat, such as various renewable energy sources or waste heat from industries, and one of eight working fluids: R143a, R22, R134a, propane, isobutane, butane, R245fa, or R123. The effects of turbine inlet pressure and the working fluid selected on the exergy destructions (anergies) at various system components as well as the COP and exergy efficiency of the system were analyzed and discussed. The results show that the component of the greatest exergy destruction in the system varies sensitively with the turbine inlet pressure and/or working fluid.

전력거래소는 2014년 나주본사이전 이후 1억kW 대용량 전력계통을 운영하기 위한 차기 계통운영시스템(이하 차기EMS) 구축을 계획하고 있다. EMS(Energy Management System)는 전국의 발, 변전소에서 계통정보를 실시간으로 취득하여 전력계통을 감시하며, 연료비 기반의 최적 경제점을 찾아 발전기를 제어하고, 전력계통을 수식화한 상태추정 결과를 기반으로 상정사고분석, 고장전류계산 등 전력계통운영을 위한 종합시스템이다. 국내 EMS의 역사는 1979년 미국의 L&N 시스템 도입을 시작으로 1988년 일본의 Toshiba EMS, 2001년 Alstom사의 NEMS를 구축하여 현재 운영중에 있다. 하지만, 외산 제품 도입에 따른 기술이전, 유지보수의 어려움을 타개하기 위해 2004년 한국형 EMS(이하 K-EMS) 연구개발계획을 수립하고 전력거래소를 주축으로 한 산학연을 구성하여 2010년 K-EMS 개발을 성공적으로 완료하였다. 차기 EMS는 국내 기술력으로 개발된 정부연구과제 성과물인 K-EMS를 기반으로 구축이 이루어지며, 총 3년간의 개발 및 시험과정을 거쳐 실계통운영을 담당할 예정이다. 차기EMS가 설치되어 운영예정인 급전소는 전력수급 균형유지와 발전소 운영 총괄 지휘 및 765kV, 345kV 송전망 운영역할을 담당할 나주급전소와 154kV 비수도권 송전망 운영을 담당할 천안급전소, 154kV 수도권 송전망 운영을 책임질 서울급전소 이상 3곳이다. 차기EMS는 발전 및 송, 변전 설비의 대형화, 다양한 FACTS 설비, 신재생에너지원으로 대표되는 분산전원의 등장과 같은 급변하는 전력계통 변화에 능동적인 역할을 성공적으로 수행할 것으로 기대하고 있다.

Currently green growth and energy saving are major issues and solution using low-power LED lighting devices are gaining popularity. There are a few standards to control these LED lighting equipment and DMX512 protocol is a typical communication control standard used. DMX512 lighting control protocol is one of standard protocols widely used in various fields which include mainly stage lighting and landscape lighting. But in DMX512 protocol, line is to be connected to a wired connection. Advantage of wired connection is stable data transfer operation but it adds complexity and certain constraints as well in wired connection. To solve this problem, wired connection can be replaced efficiently with a wireless connection but for wireless, problem of data loss and two way communications arises. In this paper, these problems of wireless communication for DMX512 have been addressed and solutions for two way communications and data loss problem have been proposed.

10kW wind turbine is widely studied in the field of renewable energy for the merits of easy installation to the confined area such as hill, park and urban areas. The performance of various electrical devices such as converter and inverter in the wind turbine system should be systematically analyzed for various wind speeds. However, it is impossible to apply these devices directly to practical wind turbine system for the safety of wind turbine system. Therefore, it is required to develop torque simulator which can generate corresponding torque according to its wind speed. In this work, 10kW torque simulator which consists of three phase torque control inverter, 3 phase induction motor and PMSG(Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator) is developed.

Recently, as research on smart farms has been actively conducted, indoor environment control, such as a green house, has reached a high level. However, In the field of forestry where cultivation is carried out in outdoor, the use of ICT is still insufficient. In this paper, we propose LPWA-based forest growth environment collection and big data analysis system using ICT technology. The proposed system collects and transmits the field cultivation environment data to the server using small solar power generation and LPWA technology based on the oneM2M architecture. The transmitted data is constructed as big data on the server and utilizes it to predict the production and quality of forest products. The proposed system is expected to contribute to the production of low-cost, high-quality crops through the fusion of renewable energy and smart farms. In addition, it can be applied to other industrial fields that utilize the oneM2M architecture and monitoring the growth environment of agricultural crops in the field.

Wind energy is currently the fastest growing source of renewable energy used for electrical generation around the world. Wind farms are adding a significant amount of electrical generation capacity. The increase in the number of wind farms has led to the need for more effective operation and maintenance. CMS(Condition Monitoring System) can be used to aid plant operator in achieving these goals. Its aim is to provide operators with information regarding th e health of their machine, which in turn, can help them improve operation efficiency. In this work, wind turbine fault diagnostic algorithm which can diagnose the mass unbalance and aerodynamic asymmetry of the blades is proposed. Proposed diagnostic algorithm utilizes both FFT(Fast Feurier Transform) of the signal from accelerometers installed inside of nacelle and simple diagnostic logic. Furthermore, to verify the applicability of the proposed system, 3W small sized wind turbine system is tested and physical experiments are carried out.

This paper is a study on the structure system and implementation of cantilever actuator for decontamination. There are many kinds of exterior materials that attach to the exterior walls of a building. Glass, in particular, can be contaminated in a short period of time due to external exposure. The pollutants like this damage the appearance of a building. It can also cause health problems for users, and dust attached to solar panels creates problems that greatly reduce the power generation of solar panels. In order to remove such contaminants, professional workers usually remove contaminants attached to the outer walls. However, even with stability, accidents are often caused by a number of unexpected variables that occur in the field. Thus, to overcome these shortcomings, the cantilever actuator structure system was proposed. The system was designed through research. Then, we made a cantilever actuator and checked its operability. Finally, the effectiveness of the cantilever actuator was reviewed.

In order to increase the self-reliance rate of new and renewable energy in order to respond to the mandatory domestic zero-energy buildings, the taller the building, the more limited the site area, and installing PV modules on the roof is not enough. Therefore, BIPV (Building integrated photovoltaic, hereinafter BIPV) is the industry receiving the most attention as a core energy source that can realize zero-energy buildings. Therefore, this study conducted a survey on the problems of the BIPV industry in a self-discussing method for experts with more than 10 years of experience of designers, builders, product manufacturers, and maintainers in order to suggest the right direction and revitalize the BIPV industry. Industrial problems of BIPV adjustment are drawn extention range of standard and certification for products, range improvement for current small condition of various kind productions, need to revise standards for capable of accomodating roof-type, color-module and louver-module, necessary of barrier in flow of foreign modules into korea through domestic certification mandatory, difficulty in obtaining BIPV information, request to prevent confusion among participants by exact guidelime about architectural application part of BIPV, and lack of the BIPV definition clearness, support policy, etc. Based on the improvements needed for the elements, giving change and competitiveness impacts aims to present and propose counter measures and direction.

An utility voltage information, including the frequency, phase angle and amplitude is very important in many industrial systems. The grid-connected photovoltaic system in the limelight as alternative energy needs utility voltage information such as frequency, phase angle and magnitude to connect the grid-line. In this paper, it proposes the instantaneous phase-tracking in PLL that uses the frequency from the utility voltage as a sync signal and locks the phase with compensation for phase difference from DPT algorithm. It also proposes not only DFT algorithm execution by every sample not by one period, but also phase-tracking method in a wide range of frequency not a fixed one. This paper shows the feasibility and the usefulness of the proposed methods through the computer simulation and the experiment.
