본 논문에서는 인공위성 전개장치용 테잎힌지 특성해석을 수행하고 그 결과에 대하여 분석하였다. 테잎힌지를 이용한 전개장치는 신뢰성이 높고, 형상이 매우 단순하며, 제작단가 또한 저렴하여 우주용 안테나 및 태양전지판에 널리 이용이 되고 있다. 테잎힌지를 이용한 전개장치의 전개특성은 테잎힌지 특성에 의하여 좌우가 되므로 안전성 있는 전개장치 설계를 수행하기 위해서는 가능한 정확한 해석이나 계산이 요구되어진다. 초기에는 쉘 이론등을 바탕으로 테잎힌지의 전개특성을 계산하는 식들이 연구되었으나 테잎힌지의 강한 비선형성 때문에 정확성이 많이 떨어지는 큰 단점이 존재하였다. 이후 많은 연구를 통하여 유한요소모델을 이용한 비선형해석을 통하여 비로소 정확한 전개특성을 해석할 수 있게 되었다. 본 논문에서는 다물체 동역학해석프로그램인 리커다인의 유연체 해석모듈을 이용하여 테잎힌지에 대한 특성해석을 수행하였다. 해석결과 신뢰성 있는 테잎힌지의 전개거동 확인 및 전개특성을 계산할 수 있었다.

This research is concerned with the dynamic modeling of solar arrays equipped with strain energy hinges(SEH). It is found from experiments that the SEH has nonlinear dynamic characteristics and complex buckling behavior, which is difficult to explain theoretically. In this paper, we use an equivalent one-dimensional nonlinear torsional spring for the SEH. Assuming that solar panels are rigid, we developed the systematic approach for the derivation of the theoretical model for the solar arrays equipped with the multitudes of the SEH. To this end, the kinematic relation of the displacement vector of each body is derived and then applied to the equations of motion. Lagrangian equations of motion are used for the derivations.

The purpose of this paper is to describe and demonstrate how a utility-connectable inverter for photovoltaic or fuel-cell applications can be well modeled using PSCAD/EMTDC. In this paper, a single-phase IGBT inverter using SPWM is modeled. Simple voltage magnitude and phase controls are implemented using PSCAD's Pl controller, PLL, and a 'user defined' component called Modulo (found in their extensive collection of example circuits). The circuit model also takes advantage of PSCAD's interpolated firing pulse option, which provides improved simulation results by preventing errors from being introduced when switches fire between time simulation steps. Additionally, SCAD's Online Frequency Scanner for FFT is utilized for a demonstration of PSCAD's frequency-domain analysis capabilities.

Li-Ion battery is used in the most satellites now due to advantages such as weight, thermal dissipation and self discharge compared to the previous generations of electrochemical batteries. The performance analysis model of the Li-Ion battery is needed to aid the design of new satellite electrical power subsystem. This paper develops the performance analysis model of the Li-Ion battery to apply to the electrical power subsystem design and energy balance analysis on geostationary orbit. The analysis model receives the satellite bus power, solar array power and battery temperature and gives the battery voltage, charge and discharge currents, taper index, state of charge and power dissipation. The results from the performance analysis are compared and analyzed with the flight data to verify the model. The compared results show satisfactory without significant difference with the flight data.

In this paper, an architecture of a perpetual smart video device and its energy control model for the internet of things (IoT) are proposed. The smart video device consists of a processor, an image sensor, a video codec, and a network controller. In the proposed energy control model, energy consumed by image sensing, video encoding, and transmission and energy harvested by solar panels are defined as an input and an output of a battery, an energy buffer. Frame rate, quantization parameter, and operating frequency of processor are defined as the energy control parameters, and these parameters control the input and the output energy of the energy buffer, finally control the energy left in the battery. The proposed energy control model is validated by the energy consumption measurement of the smart phone based platform for various combinations of energy control parameters, and can be used for the design of perpetual smart video device.

In this study, the outdoor evaluation test was performed to characterize the highly-reflective artificial grass to be used for bifacial photovoltaic (PV) power generation system. The 60-cell n-type Si monofacial and bifacial PV modules were employed, where two types of bifacial modules were equipped with split-type and box-type junction boxes, respectively. The results showed that the split-type junction box improved the rear-side power production and thus energy yield of bifacial module compared to the box-type junction box causing the shadow effect. Highly-reflective artificial grass achieved relatively high albedo of 0.18, and excellent bifacial gain of 33%, compared to conventional artificial grass with an albedo of 0.14-0.15, and bifacial gain of 29-30%.

Fossil fuel such as oil and natural gas has been used and will be no longer supplied enough to demand in the beginning of thisg century. The use of the fuel makes a lot of environmental pollution to threaten human being's health especially in big cities and produces a lot of $CO_{2}$ to make green house effect of the earth. It is the time to use clean fuel such as hydrogen to prevent the expected energy crisis and the pollution. A new engine such as fuel cell can be used instead of the conventional internal combustion engine with 2 to 3 times higher efficiency of the conventional engine. The fuel cell uses hydrogen and oxygen and produces electric energy and pure water, which is a calm engine without air pollution. In big cities the city buses and the taxies powered by hydrogen fuel cells are suggested to be operated for clean environment. The energy and cost analysis performed for hydrogen and electricity production from wind power and solar cell.

Optimal cooling operation algorithm was developed based on a simulation case of a single family house model equipped with renewable energy facility. EnergyPlus simulation results were used as virtual test data. The model contained three energy storage elements: thermal heat capacity of the living room, chilled water storage tank, and battery. Their charging and discharging schedules were optimized so that daily electricity bill became minimal. As an optimization tool, linear programming was considered because it was possible to obtain results in real time. For its adoption, EnergyPlus-based house model had to be linearly approximated. Results of this study revealed that dynamic cooling load of the living room could be approximated by a linear RC model. Scheduling based on the linear programming was then compared to that by a nonlinear optimization algorithm which was made using GenOpt developed by a national lab in USA. They showed quite similar performances. Therefore, linear programming can be a practical solution to optimal operation scheduling if linear dynamic models are tuned to simulate their real equivalents with reasonable accuracy.

In the three axis control of Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite by using reaction wheel and gyro, a reaction wheel produces the control torque by the wheel speed or momentum, and a gyro carries out measuring of the attitude angle and the attitude angular velocity. In this paper, the dynamic modelling of LEO is consisted of the one from the rotational motion of the satellite with basic rigid body model and a flexible model, in addition to the reaction wheel model. A robust controller $(H_\infty)$ is designed to stabilize the rigid body and the flexible body of satellite, which can be perturbed due to disturbance, etc. The result obtained by $H_\infty$ controller is compared with that of the PI (Proportional and Integration) controller, which has been traditionally using for the stabilizing LEO satellite.
