Li 이차 전지 음극용 활물질인 $Co_3O_4$의 초기 충방전 효율을 향상시키기 위해 chemical reduction method나 mechanical milling법을 이용하여 $Co_3O_4$에 Ni을 첨가하여 $Ni-Co_3O_4$, 복합물을 제조하였다. 그 결과 초기 충방전 효율이 약 69%에 불과한 $Co_3O_4$에 비해 mechanical milling법을 이용하여 제조된 $Ni-Co_3O_4$ 복합물은 약 79%이상의 대폭 향상된 초기 충방전 효율 특성을 나타내었다. 하지만 chemical reduction method를 이용하여 제조된 $Ni-Co_3O_4$ 복합물은 약 71%의 초기 충방전 효율 특성만을 나타내었다. SEM 분석을 통해 각 물질의 표면 형상을 관찰한 결과 mechanical milling법과 chemical reduction method를 통해 제조된 $Ni-Co_3O_4$ 복합물에서는 $Co_3O_4$ 표면에 분포된 Ni의 균일성의 차이가 존재하였다. $Co_3O_4$가 $Li_2O$의 분해, 형성에 의해 충방전되고 Ni이 $Li_2O$의 분해를 촉진시키는 효과를 가지고 있음을 고려할 때 이러한 균일성의 차이는 결국 Ni 과 $Co_3O_4$ 사이의 접촉면적의 차이로 이어져 $Ni-Co_3O_4$ 복합물의 초기 충방전 효율 특성이 그 제조 방법에 따라 달라지는 것으로 보인다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate basically the mechanism of heat transfer by the resolution of complex fluid flow inside a sophisticated designed screw dryer for the treatment of sewage sludge by using numerical analysis and experimental study. By doing this, the result was quite helpful to obtain the design criteria for enhancing drying efficiency, thereby achieving the optimal design of a multiple screw type dryer for treating inorganic and organic sludge wastes. One notable design feature of the dryer was to bypass a certain of fraction of the hot combustion gases into the bottom of the screw cylinder, by the fluid flow induction, across the delicately designed holes on the screw surface to agitate internally the sticky sludges. This offers many benefits not only in the enhancement of thermal efficiency even for the high viscosity material but also greater flexibility in the application of system design and operation. However, one careful precaution was made in operation in that when distributing the hot flue gas over the lump of sludge for internal agitation not to make any pore blocking and to avoid too much pressure drop caused by inertial resistance across the lump of sludge. The optimal retention time for rotating the screw at 1 rpm in order to treat 200 kg/hr of sewage sludge was determined empirically about 100 minutes. The corresponding optimal heat source was found to be 150,000 kcal/hr. A series of numerical calculation is performed to resolve flow characteristics in order to assist in the system design as function of important system and operational variables. The numerical calculation is successfully evaluated against experimental temperature profile and flow field characteristics. In general, the calculation results are physically reasonable and consistent in parametric study. In further studies, more quantitative data analyses such as pressure drop across the type and loading of drying sludge will be made for the system evaluation in experiment and calculation.

In this study, The report analysed the characteristics of power drop and damage of surface in solar cell through high temperature and humidity test. The solar cells were tested during the 1000hr in $85^{\circ}C$ temperature and 85% humidity conditions, that excerpted standard of PV Module(KS C IEC-61215). An analysis of the cell surface through EL(Electroluminescence), the cell has partly change of surface in yearly. Single-crystalline Solar cell efficiency is decreased from 17.7% to 15.6% and decreasing rate is 11.9%. On the other hand, Poly-crystalline Solar cell efficiency is decreased from 15.5% to 14.0% and decreasing rate is 9.3%. A comparison of the fill factor for analysis of electro characteristic in yearly, Single-crystalline Solar cell efficiency is decreased from 78.7% to 78.1% and decreasing rate is 4.7%. On the other hand, Poly-crystalline Solar cell efficiency is decreased from 78.1% to 76.7% and decreasing rate is 1.8%. Single-crystalline has more bigger power drop than poly-crystalline by the silicon purity and silicon atom arrangement. Also, FF decreasing rate has more bigger drop than efficiency decreasing rate for the reason that the damage of surface by exterior environmental factor is the more influence in cell than other reason that is decreasing FF by damage of p-n junction.

Recently, wireless power transmission has attracted much interest and is the subject of much research in industry and academia. As its name implies, it is a technology which involves transferring power without wires. This paper presents the design of an ICT-based wireless power transmission system. The proposed system consists of a wireless transceiver unit and high-efficiency coil unit, which can increase both the transmission efficiency and the effective power distance. In particular, the wireless transceiver unit was designed to work with the ICT technique to enable real-time remote monitoring. Also, studies were done relating to the effect of reducing the standby power. The optimal frequency of IGBT devices used in industrial wireless power systems of 20[KHz] was utilized. The values of $23.9[{\mu}H]$ and $2.64[{\mu}F]$ were selected for L and C, respectively, through many field experiments designed to optimize the system design. In addition, an output current controlling algorithm was developed for the purpose of reducing the standby power. The results presented in this paper represent a 75[%] to 85[%] higher power transmission efficiency with a 10[%] increase in the effective power transmission distance compared with the existing systems. As a result, the proposed system exhibits a lower standby power and maintenance costs. Also, the designed wireless transceiver unit facilitates fault detection by means of user acquired data with the development of the ICT applied program.

Domestic electric heater manufacturers are focusing on technology development to improve the efficiency of existing products. The electric heater for ship fuel is large in size and has high difficulty in miniaturization/high efficiency, so there are not many companies that try to develop technology yet. The existing electric heater has a structure of low heating efficiency because the contact time with the heat exchange tube of the heating medium is very short because the flow path of the ship engine fuel is monotonous. Since it is manufactured in a tubular shape, the volume is very large regardless of the heating efficiency. As a result, the tubular electric heater device applied by overseas advanced companies has difficulty in maintaining and repairing because it is necessary to decompose all tubular heaters when a specific part of the inside is damaged and if the heat exchange tube is damaged, all the heat exchange tubes must be decomposed. In this study, a basic study on plate type electric heaters capable of heating 10 tons of ship engine fuel per hour and setting a maximum temperature of up to 150℃ was conducted through a 250kW capacity plate type electric heater.

현재 상용가능한 연소전 $CO_2$ 포집 기술은 습식 스크러빙 방식으로 고온의 합성가스를 상온 수준으로 온도를 낮춘 후 $CO_2$를 포집해야 하고 포집된 $CO_2$의 압력이 낮아 재압축하여 저장소로 보내야 함에 따라 큰 폭의 열효율 손실이 불가피하다. 고온 고압에서 이산화탄소를 포집할수 있는 고체 흡수제를 이용할 경우 이산화탄소 포집 치 저장 추가에 따른 시스템 효율 저하를 최소화할 수 있다. 고체 $CO_2$ 흡수제는 서로 연결된 두 개의 유동층 반응기를 순환하면서 흡수탑에서는 합성가스 중의 $CO_2$를 흡수하고 재생탑에서는 고온의 수증기와 접촉하여 흡수된 $CO_2$를 다시 배출함으로써 재생된다. 따라서 건식 재생 $CO_2$ 흡수제는 유동층 공정에 응용가능한 물성과 함께 높은 $CO_2$ 흡수능과 빠른 반응성이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 유동층 공정에 적합한 물성을 가진 연소전 $CO_2$ 포집용 고체 흡수제를 분무건조법으로 제조하였으며, 모사 합성가스를 이용하여 열중량분석기와 기포유동층반응기를 이용하여 $200^{\circ}C$ 흡수, $400^{\circ}C$ 재생, 압력 20 bar 조건으로 반응성을 측정하였다. 개발된 고체 $CO_2$ 흡수제는 열중량분석기에서는 반응 후 10-13 wt%의 무게증가를 나타내었고 기포유동층반응기에서는 8-10 wt%의 $CO_2$ 흡수능을 보여주었다. 특히 수증기의 함량이 10% 이상에서 높은 흡수능을 나타내어 수증기가 반응에 크게 작용하고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

The surface of polypropylene was modified by 1 keV $Ar^+$ ion beam in an $O_2$ environment in order to enhance wettability. Contact angle of deionized water on modified polypropylene was reduced from $78^{\circ}$to $22^{\circ}$. The enhanced wettability is originated from newly formed functional groups such as ether, carbonyl, and carbonyl groups. During immersion in deionized water, the enhanced wettability has remained nearly same. After washing in water, the hydrophilic functional groups on the polymer surface have been very stable. The modified polypropylene was adopted as bio-film media to remove organics in synthetic wastewater. Microbe adhesion on the polypropylene surface was improved due to the newly formed hydrophilic groups.

A rapid and simple RT-PCR diagnosis method for detection of Rice stripe virus (RSV), one of major virus infecting rice, was developed using porous ceramic cubes in this study. The porous ceramic cube can rapidly absorb biological molecules such as small-sized proteins and nucleic acid fragments into its pores. We examined whether this ability of porous ceramic cubes could be applied for isolating viral nucleic acids or particles from the RSV- infected plant tissues. In this study, we found that the porous ceramic cube was capable of absorbing a detection level of viruses from the rice tissues infected with RSV and established RT-PCR-based RNA diagnosis method using porous ceramic cubes.
