The study aims that high quality recycled sand by wet manufacturing system can be used in practical way through basic material property. The basic material property test was done by 4 categories, dry manufacturing system (1) tandem and (2) parallel, wet manufacturing system (3) large capacity and (4) small capacity. RS-IV is the final production of (1) to (4) method, it is tested via KS F 2573 (recycled fine aggregate). RS-IV is satisfied with 4 items, those are absolute dry density, 0.08mm sieve throughput, clay lump amount, and organic impurity substance content. However, absorptivity item has problem in (1) and (2) method, (3) and (4) method are confirmed with norms 5% low. Also, the production quality of wet manufacturing system is better than dry manufacturing system in absolute dry density, absorptivity, 0.08mm sieve throughput, and clay lump amount.

In this paper, we propose a method to remove the circulating current which can occur in the parallel connection of the high voltage series connected battery module in the battery pack. The removal way is a method of inserting a module named VVSM (Variable Voltage Variable Module) using bidirectional DCDC converter and supercapacitor in place of one or some of the cascaded battery cells in the battery pack configuration. In this module, it operates like a battery cell that can be controlled at a desired voltage. VVSM is used to match the voltages of the cascaded battery modules very easily. To demonstrate the proposed method, a PSIM simulation for battery model is used. In addition, the module with only the battery cell connected in series and the module with the proposed VVSM are made, and the two modules were connected in parallel to measure the circulating current between the two modules. As a result, it was verified that the proposed method effectively suppressed the circulating current.

배터리 에너지 저장 시스템이나 태양광 발전 시스템은 흔히 용량 확장, 신뢰성 향상, 효율 향상 등을 목적으로 계통연계형 인버터를 다수 모듈형으로 병렬 구성하게 된다. 이렇게 DC전원을 공유하면서 인버터 출력단을 하나로 묶어 운전하는 경우에 순환전류가 문제가 될 수 있는데, 계통주파수에 해당하는 위상 차 뿐만 아니라 수 kHz의 동기화 되지 않은 PWM 캐리어 위상 차에 의해서도 순환전류가 발생할 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 PWM 동기화를 위하여, PEBB(Power Electronics Building Block) 개념을 사용하는 다수 대의 인버터가 직렬 또는 병렬로 구동될 때, 직렬 통신을 이용하여 PWM 캐리어들을 정밀하게 동기화 시키는 실용적인 방법에 대해서 제안하고자 한다.

It was investigated thermal performances on two array types of a serial circulation and a two-way parallel circulation for six water-cooled cold plates covered with non-metallic material (polycarbonate, PC) to reduce weight of the cooling devices for humanoid robot cooling. Six cold plates attached on $10{\times}10\;mm^2$ copper base : $0.5{\times}0.5\;mm^2$ pin-finned surfaces of 1.5 mm high with 0.5 mm array spacing, was mounted on six copper heating blocks with isothermal conditions of $50{\sim}90^{\circ}C$, respectively. In order to compare thermal characteristics according to two circulation types, the surface temperatures of heating blocks and the cooling water temperatures at inlets and outlets of cold plates were measured. From the results, it was found that a two-way parallel circulation was better performance than a serial circulation in terms of total thermal resistance, total heat transfer rate, and surface temperature rises from $1^{st}$ heating block to last one for six multiple cold plates.

In this paper, we investigate the performances of the serial concatenated convolutional codes (SCCC) and low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes on perpendicular magnetic recording (PMR) channels. We discuss the performance of two systems when user bit-densities are 1.7, 2.0, 2.4 and 2.8, respectively. The SCCC system is less complex than LDPC system. The SCCC system consists of recursive systematic convolutional (RSC) codes encoder/decoder, precoder and random interleaver. The decoding algorithm of the SCCC system is the soft message-passing algorithm and the decoding algorithm of the LDPC system is the log domain sum-product algorithm (SPA). When we apply the iterative decoding between channel detector and the error control codes (ECC) decoder, the SCCC system is compatible with the LDPC system even at the high user bit density.

This paper proposes a CRC error verification method for SPI and I2C buses of automotive semiconductors. In automotive semiconductors, when an error occurs in communication and an incorrect value is transmitted, fatal results may occur. Unlike LIN communication and CAN communication, in communication such as SPI and I2C, there is no frame for detecting an error, so some definitions of new standards are required. Therefore, in this paper, the CRC error detection mode is newly defined in the SPI and I2C communication protocols, and the verification is presented by designing it in hardware.

Background: We have hypothesized that, if a low resistant gravity-flow membrane oxygenator is used, then the twin blood sacs of TPLS can be located at downstream of the membrane oxyenator, which may double the pulse rate at a given pump rate and increase the pump output. The purpose of this study was to determine the optimal configuration for the ECLS circuits by using the concept of pulse energy and pump output. Material and Method: Animals were randomly assigned to 2 groups in a total cardiopulmonary bypass model. In the serial group, a conventional membrane oxygenator was located between the twin blood sacs. In the parallel group, the twin blood sacs were placed downstream of the gravity-flow membrane oxygenator. Energy equivalent pressure (EEP) and pump output were collected at pump-setting rates of 30, 40, and 50 BPM. Result: At the given pump-setting rate, the pulse rate was doubled in the parallel group. Percent changes of mean arterial pressure to EEP were $13.0\pm1.7,\; 12.0\pm1.9\;and\;7.6\pm0.9\%$ in the parallel group, and $22.5\pm2.4,\; 23.2\pm1.9,\;and\;21.8\pm1.4\%$ in the serial group at 30, 40, and 50 BPM of pump-setting rates. Pump output was higher in the parallel circuit at 40 and 50 BPM of pump-setting rates $(3.1\pm0.2,\;3.7\pm0.2L/min\;vs.\;2.2\pm0.1\;and\;2.5\pm0.1L/min,\;respectively,\;p=0.01)$. Conclusion: Either parallel or serial circuit configuration of the ECLS generates effective pulsatility. As for the pump out, the parallel circuit configuration provides higher flow than the serial circuit configuration.

기존 위상 변조 PWM 풀 브릿지 컨버터들의 그 단점인 좁은 영전압 스위칭 범위, 큰 순환 전류, 큰 듀티 사이클 손실, 그리고 심각한 이차측 전압 스트레스를 개선 할 수 있는 컨버터를 본 논문에서 발표한다. 제안하고자 하는 컨버터는 일차측에 두 개의 하프 브릿지 인버터들로 구성되어 있으며, 변압기를 통해 이차측에서 직렬로 연결된다. 출력 전압은 두 하프 브릿지의 스위칭 레그들의 위상 변조로 제어 된다. 이차측에는 두 개의 저전류 정격의 다이오드를 추가적으로 갖는다. 이러한 구성으로 넓은 영전압 스위칭 범위를 갖고, 순환 전류 또한 제거된다. 더불어 이차측 전압 스트레스가 낮아지고, 출력 필터 인덕터의 크기 또한 50%이상 작아진다. 실험을 통해 제안한 컨버터의 성능을 검증한 결과 또한 발표한다.

This paper investigates the operation of ITER(International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor) Vertical Stabilization(VS) converter with circulating current. The VS converter has two subunits in parallel. The subunit is composed two back-to-back 12 pulse thyristor converter in series. The circulating current free technique can not always maintain the closed path for the load current because of a dead time zone of the converter operation at the region of the load current inversion. The complex circulation current technique for the load current inversion with VS converter can achieve the fast response and always maintain the closed path for the load curret. The paper proposes the new circulating current algorithm for the load current inversion of ITER VS converter and proves the performance of the circulating current technique with PSIM simulation study.

Recently, the high frequency link boost DC/DC converter has been used widely for PCS (Power Conditioning System) because of the requirements of small size and low cost. However, the high frequency link boost DC/DC converters applied the conventional voltage-fed converter and current-fed converter have some problems like high conduction losses and high surge voltage due to high circulating current and leakage inductance, respectively. To improve these problems, a novel secondary LLC (called SLLC) series resonant converter is proposed in this paper and its theoretical analysis, its operating waveforms, simulation and experimental results for a boost DC/DC converter using SLLC series resonant topology verifies the proposed topology. 800W experimental prototype is tested.
