Recently, LED (Light Emitting Diode) becomes to be useful to apply for the lightening sources in electric systems and the lightening equipment since the power is less consumed with high efficiency, and the size and the weight of LED are small and light, respectively. The LED is controlled with constant current and SMPS (Switching Mode Power Supply). It is necessary for the LED manufacturer to secure the fundamental technology of designing LED chip, and to study the methodology to improve the power factor (PF) and to design the operational circuit for the development of LED to reduce the power loss in the application of LED lightening. The direct AC (Alternating Current) LED driving circuit, HV9910, is widely used in the industry field. In this paper, it is to evaluate the improved methodology for the power factor and efficiency through simulations when PFC (Power Factor Correction) and Noise Filter are added to HV9910.

Following advances in technology and with the growing need for renewable energy, fluorescent and halogen lamps are being replaced by LED lighting in museum systems. This paper researched the setting of standards for the diverse lighting systems in addition to the LED lighting that are expected to be introduced in museums in the future. Contrary to previous belief, LEDs were shown to only barely emit in the ultraviolet region, but the visible rays were confirmed to produce discoloration depending on illuminance-hours. When the color change by LED lamps at the color temperature of 2800K, or warm white, was compared with 5500K, or white, the emission spectrum analysis confirmed that the blue spike increased at a higher color temperature and caused more discoloration. This suggests that in addition to illumination, color temperature should be considered by including the emission spectrum when museums set lighting environment standards.

Reverse electrodialysis (RED) is one of the promising eco-friendly renewable energy technologies which can generate electricity from the concentration difference between seawater and freshwater by using ion-exchange membranes as a diaphragm. The ion-exchange membrane is a key component that determines the performance of RED, and must satisfy requirements such as low electrical resistance, high permselectivity, excellent durability, and low manufacturing cost. In this study, pore-filled anion-exchange membranes were fabricated using porous polymer substrates having various thicknesses and porosity, and the effects of ion-exchange polymer composition and membrane thickness on the power generation performance of RED were investigated. When the electrical resistance of the ion-exchange membrane is sufficiently low, it can be confirmed that the RED power generation performance is mainly influenced by the apparent permselectivity of the membrane. In addition, it was confirmed that the apparent permselectivity of the membranes can be improved through IEC, crosslinking degree, membrane thickness, surface modification, etc., and the optimum condition must be found in consideration of the trade-off relationship with electrical resistance.

유기발광소자는 낮은 구동전압과 높은 명암비, 높은 색 재현성을 장점으로 차세대 디스플레이로 주목 받고 있다. 또한, 유기발광소자는 다층 발광층을 사용하여 단일 소자에서 적색, 녹색, 및 청색의 광원을 동시에 표현할 수 있기 때문에 차세대 디스플레이와 백색 조명 광원으로 많은 응용 가능성을 보이고 있다. 특히 백색 조명과 관련된 유기발광소자 기술은 가정용면 광원과 농작물 재배 광원 등의 다양한 용도로 사용 가능하며, 낮은 전력 소모로 인한 친환경에너지로 활발한 연구가 진행 중이다. 고효율 백색 유기발광소자를 제작하기 위해서는 소자에 주입되는 정공과 전자의 양을 조절하여 발광층 내에서 다수의 전자-정공쌍을 형성하여야 하는데, 유기발광소자에서 정공의 이동도는 전자의 이동도보다 약 103 정도 크기 때문에 전자의 이동도를 증가할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 전자의 이동도가 다른 tris(8-hydroxyquinolate)aluminum (Alq3)와 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (BPhen)을 전자수송층으로 사용한 백색 유기발광소자를 제작하여 전기적 및 광학적 특성을 관찰하였다. BPhen 전자수송층을 사용한 유기발광소자는 Alq3 전자수송층을 사용한 유기발광소자보다 높은 전자이동도를 가지고 있어서 고효율의 유기발광소자 제작이 가능하다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 유기발광소자의 발광층으로 청색 빛을 내는 4,4'-bis(2,2'-diphenylvinyl)-1,1'-biphenyl와 황색 빛을 내는 5,6,11,12-tetraphenylnaphthacene을 사용하여 백색 유기발광소자를 제작하고 전기적 및 광학적 특성을 조사하였다.

The global demand for carbon neutrality in response to climate change is in a situation where it is necessary to prepare countermeasures for carbon trade barriers for some countries, including Korea, which is classified as an export-led economic structure and greenhouse gas exporter. Therefore, digital transformation, which is one of the predictable ways for the carbon-neutral transition model to be applied, should be introduced early. By applying digital technology to industrial gas manufacturing facilities used in one of the major industries, high-tech manufacturing industry, and hydrogen gas facilities, which are emerging as eco-friendly energy, abnormal detection, and diagnosis services are provided with cloud-based predictive diagnosis monitoring technology including operating knowledge. Here are the trends. Small and medium-sized companies that are in the blind spot of carbon-neutral implementation by confirming the direction of abnormal diagnosis predictive monitoring through optimization, augmented reality technology, IoT and AI knowledge inference, etc., rather than simply monitoring real-time facility status It can be seen that it is possible to disseminate technologies such as consensus knowledge in the engineering domain and predictive diagnostic monitoring that match the economic feasibility and efficiency of the technology. It is hoped that it will be used as a way to seek countermeasures against carbon emission trade barriers based on the highest level of ICT technology.

The slowdown of private building industry resulted in growth of remodeling market as a way to improve energy performance. Remodeling is considered more cost-effective and eco-friendly approach for energy efficient building than new construction. Since 2008, Seoul has promoted Building Retrofit Project (BRP) preponderantly to attract energy-saving renovation by supporting building owners to switch building system into energy-saving system when they remodel their old buildings. According to 2012 press release, 254 Private sectors participated in this green building project and annually reduced 41000ton of greenhouse gas emission, 14000TOE, which also result in 7.5 billion won energy cost savings per year. The paper focuses on the building envelope remodeling as a way to improve energy efficiency. Different components of the building envelope such as wall insulation, window, and shading, were applied to the baseline model and the comparison was analyzed to come up with the ideal solution. This study only assesses the building envelope as to suggest the way to redesign the better energy performing building. Offering solution focusing on the architectural feature is essential because it will provide basic information and standard when remodeling a building for energy efficiency, especially, for the nonresidential buildings used as rental offices.
