In this paper, two general methods using time-series analysis in the functional separation of the myoelectric signal of human arm movements are developed. Autocorrelation, covariance method and sequential least squares algorithm were used to determine the model parameters and the order of signal model to describe six arm movement patterns` the forearm flexion and extension, the wrist pronation and supination, rotation-in and rotation-out. The confidence interval to classify the functions of arm movement was defined by the mean and standard deviation of total squared error. With the error signals of autoregressive(AR) model, the result showed that the highest success rate was obtained in the case of 4th order, and success rate was decreased with increase of order. Autocorrelation was the method of choice for better success rate. This technique might be applied to biomedical and rehabilitation engineering.

본 연구에서는 상변화소자의 구조 변화에 따른 열전달 현상과 reset 전류에 대한 시뮬레이션을 실행하였다. 상변화소자의 상변화재료의 profile에 따른 주울열의 발생 및 reset 전류의 변화량을 시뮬레이션 한 결과, 하부전극에서부터 도포되는 상변화재료 박막의 두께가 2000[A]인 경우는 541($^{\circ}C$)로 현저하게 발열온도가 낮아지는 것을 알 수 있다. 이는 저항체로 쓰이는 상변화재료의 저항 감소로 인해 발열량이 적게 되고 상변화재료를 통해 전달된 열이 상부전극 텅스텐과 접촉하면서 외부로 쉽게 전달되면서 빠져나감에 따라 온도가 많이 올라가지 않는 것으로 생각된다.

The mold transformers have been widely used in underground substations in large building and have some advantages in comparison to oil-transformer, that is low fire risk, excellent environmental compatibility, compact size and high reliability. In addition, the application of mold transformer for outdoor is possible due to development of epoxy resin. The mold transformer generally has cooling duct between low voltage coil and high voltage coil. A mold transformer made by one body molding method has been developed for small size and low loss, but it needs some cooling method because heat radiation between each winding is difficult. In this paper, the temperature distribution and thermal stress analysis of H class 100kVA pole cast resin transformer for power distribution are investigated by FEM program.

The method of Greenwood and Williamson is extended to obtain a solution to the coupled non-linear problem of steady-state electrical and thermal conduction across a crack in a conductive layer, for which the electrical resistivity and thermal conductivity are functions of temperature. The problem can be decomposed into the solution of a pair of non-linear algebraic equations involving boundary values and material properties. The new mixed-boundary value problem given from the thermal and electrical boundary conditions for the crack in the conductive layer is reduced in order to solve a singular integral equation of the first kind, the solution of which can be expressed in terms of the product of a series of the Chebyshev polynomials and their weight function. The non-existence of the solution for an infinite conductor in electrical and thermal conduction is shown. Numerical results are given showing the temperature field around the crack.

A thermal analysis was performed for the electromagnet which is installed in the control element drive mechanism(CEDM) of the integral reactor SMART. A model for the thermal analysis of the electromagnet was developed and theoretical bases for the model were established. It is important that the temperature of the electromagnet windings be maintained within the allowable limit of the insulation, since the electromagnet of CEDM is always supplied with current during the reactor operation. So the thermal analysis of the winding insulation which is composed of polyimide and air were performed by finite element method. The thermal properties obtained here will be used as input for the optimization analysis of the electromagnet.

A squirrel cage canned induction motor for the main coolant pump of the integral reactor, SMART was designed, manufactured and tested. The motor was first designed using the equivalent circuit theory to determine major dimensions and then finalized through finite element analyses for electromagnetic and thermal characteristics. In order to verify the design methodology, a reduced scale canned induction motor was manufactured and tested. The experimental results have shown a good agreement with the analysis results.

In this paper, thermal analysis of Cubicle type Gas Insulated Switchgear(C-GIS) was investigated through experiments and numerical analysis. To predict 3-dimensional temperature and velocity distribution, the commercial package was used. Although some assumptions and simplifications were introduced to simulate the model, results from the computational model were in good agreement with actual temperature rise measurements obtained from experiments.

수소경제 시대의 도래와 함께 연료전지에 관한 연구가 크게 주목받고 있다. 그중 실험적으로 분석이 어려운 부분에 관하여 비용과 시간이 요구되는 실험적인 방법을 배제할 수 있는 모델링 기법인 전산유체역학(computational flow dynamics, CFD)이 큰 관심을 받고 있다. 연료전지의 연구에 주로 사용되는 전산유체역학에 관한 연구는 열분포, 유체의 흐름, 각종 반응물의 농도, 그리고 전기화학반응 등의 실험적인 분석이 현실적으로 불가능한 부분의 분석으로 통하여 실험을 줄이고도 많은 결과를 얻을 수 있는 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 본 기고문에서는 전산유체역학을 이용한 연료전지 내부에서 벌어지고 있는 각종 유체, 열, 전기화학반응 등에 관한 연구동향을 소개하고자 한다.

This study aims to explore the heat transfer and flow phenomena inside an instant water heater and the influence of the design parameters of the water heater on the heating performance was investigated by 3-D numerical simulations considering heat convection. The design parameters are the heating ceramic dimension, the power of the heating device, and the water flow rate. The results show that a reasonable space for the heating device is required to optimize the heating performance. It is desirable to design higher heating device as possible for a given electric power. There exists a critical water flow rate that best meets the heating performance. The change in electric power has no impact on the flow phenomena and heating performance.

The performance of lithium ion batteries used in electric vehicles (EV) varies greatly depending on the battery temperature. In this paper, the finite difference method was used to evaluate the temperature change, state of charge (SOC), internal resistance, and voltage change of the battery due to heat generation in the battery. The simulation model was linked with AMESim to calculate the driving range of an EV traveling in New European Driving Cycle (NEDC) mode. As the temperature dropped below $25^{\circ}C$, the internal resistance of the battery increased, which increased the amount of heat generated and decreased the driving range of EV. At battery temperatures above $25^{\circ}C$, the driving range was also decreased due to reduced SOC that deteriorated the battery performance. The battery showed optimal performance and the driving range was maximized at $25^{\circ}C$. When battery temperatures of $-20^{\circ}C$ and $45^{\circ}C$, the driving range of EV decreased by 33% and 1.8%, respectively. Maintaining the optimum battery temperature requires heating the battery at low temperature and cooling it down at high temperature through efficient battery thermal management. Approximately 500 W of heat should be supplied to the battery when the ambient temperature is $-20^{\circ}C$, while 250 W of heat should be removed for the battery to be maintained at $25^{\circ}C$.
