Recently, the study of energy saving technology of ships begins in earnest, as energy saving policies are performed all around the world. SEMS (Ship Energy Management System) is one of the techniques to increase energy efficiency by applying to a independent system like a ship and offshore. SEMS is composed of Cooling Pump Control System (CPCS), Renewable Energy Emergency Power Control System (REEPCS), Load Control System (LCS), and Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning System (HVACS). SEMS is enable to increase energy efficiency and achieve integrated management through the interlocking of each system. Especially, it is possible to improve the flexibility of the selection of the generator capacity in conjunction with a rechargeable battery and renewable energy. In this paper, SEMS applied rechargeable battery is proposed and simulated. By applying the rechargeable battery, it was confirmed that SEMS applied rechargeable battery can be operated at optimum efficiency of the generator.

This paper introduces a lithium ion battery management system (BMS) for the STSAT-3 satellite. The specifications of a lithium ion battery unit are proposed to supply power to the satellite and the overall electrical and mechanical designs for a lithium ion battery management system are presented. The structural simulation results will be shown to confirm the behavior of both the BMS and the cells.

The energy management technology for an independent fuel cell-battery hybrid system is developed for a household usage. To develop an efficient energy management technology, a simulation model is first developed. After the model is verified with experimental results, three energy management schemes are developed. Three control techniques are a fuzzy logic control (FLC), a state machine control (SMC), and a hybrid method of FLC and SMC. As the fuel cell-battery hybrid system is used for a house, battery state of charge (SOC) regulation is the most important factor for an energy management because SOC should be kept constant every day for continuous usage. Three management schemes are compared to see SOC, power split, and fuel cell power variations effects. Experimental results are also presented and the most favorable strategy is the state machine combined fuzzy control method.

In this paper a photovoltaic energy harvesting charger with battery management circuit is proposed. The proposed circuit harvests maximum power from a solar cell by employing MPPT(Maximum Power Point Tracking) control and charges an external capacitor battery with the harvested energy. The charging state of the battery is controlled according to the signals from the battery management circuit. The proposed circuit is designed in a 0.35um CMOS process technology and its functionality has been verified through extensive simulations. The maximum efficiency of the designed entire system is 84.8%, and the chip area including pads is $1350um{\times}1200um$.

Global economy has recorded low growth, low consumption, high unemployment rate, high risk, short boom and long recession. As a result, maritime economy declines and the reduction of maintenance costs is inevitable. Thus, Studies such as green ship, eco ship, and smart ship are being actively conducted to save energy of ship. Power management system that use batteries in green ship is an important research area. In this paper, we analyze the heavy load control of a power management system of a general ship using only a generator, and study a heavy load control algorithm for a battery connected power management system. To study this, a structure of battery connected power management system is proposed and a battery connected power simulator was constructed based on the proposed system. Through the simulator, the operation of the battery according to the heavy load control is defined and confirmed in the battery connected power management system.

We have developed 1 kW-class PEMFC-battery hybrid system independently powering to the building, through the process of system design, current load characteristics analysis, power system configuration for demonstration site and performance evaluation. In order to use the fuel cell and battery as the hybrid type, a control technology for the charging/discharging decision and charging speed of the battery is required rather than using fuel cell. Also output power distribution between PEMFC and the battery is a core of energy management technology. It is confirmed that it is possible to supply independently 1kW powering the building to ensure optimal energy management through the power control experiment of the hybrid system.

Nowadays mobile devices are used for various applications such as making voice/video calls, browsing the Internet, listening to music etc. The average battery consumption of each of these activities and the length of time a user spends on each one determines the battery lifetime of a mobile device. Previous methods have provided predictions of battery lifetime using a static battery consumption rate that does not consider user characteristics. This paper proposes an approach to predict a mobile device's available battery lifetime based on usage patterns. Because every user has a different pattern of voice calls, data communication, and video call usage, we can use such usage patterns for personalized prediction of battery lifetime. Firstly, we define one or more states that affect battery consumption. Then, we record time-series log data related to battery consumption and the use time of each state. We calculate the average battery consumption rate for each state and determine the usage pattern based on the time-series data. Finally, we predict the available battery time based on the average battery consumption rate for each state and the usage pattern. We also present the experimental trials used to validate our approach in the real world.

본 논문에서는 효율적인 에너지 관리를 위해 리튬이온 배터리를 적용 능동 셀 밸런싱 시스템 BMS에 대해 제안하였다. 제안된 방법은 다수의 셀과 하나의 커패시터로 구성된 SSC(Single Switched Capacitor) 방식에서 사용되는 커패시터를 리튬이온 배터리로 변경하여 적용한 것이다. SSC 방식은 커패시터의 방향성으로 인하여 홀수 번째와 짝수 번째의 배터리에 대해 별도의 스위치를 설치하여야 하며 조작이 복잡하다는 단점을 가지고 있었다. 이러한 단점을 보완하여 커패시터를 리튬이온 배터리로 대체하여 셀의 순서에 상관없이 적용이 가능한 셀 밸런싱 방법을 제안하였다. 제안된 방법의 효율성은 BMS를 구현하여 실험 하였다. 실험 결과 셀 밸런싱이 기존의 SSC 방식보다 개선되어 효율성이 입증되었다.
