The commercial buildings are consuming about 30% of total energy used in Korea. And a large amount of energy consumption in commercial buildings is consumed by HVAC(Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning) system. Therefore, if we can reduce the energy consumption in HVAC or air-conditioning system in commercial buildings, the overall energy consumption in Korea can be reduced. Currently, an electricity charge called Time of Use (TOU) is applied to typical commercial buildings. This paper proposes the novel energy management method where the temperature setting of air-conditioning system are adjusted to minimize the use of electrical energy while indoor comfort level is retained. The simulation test for a typical commercial building shows that the proposed method gives over 10% savings in electricity bills and electricity consumption compared to the conventional air-conditioning method.

결정질 실리콘 태양전지의 원가에서 Wafer는 60~70%의 매우 높은 비중을 차지하고 있다. 많은 연구들이 원가 절감을 위하여 Wafer의 두께를 감소시키는 것에 집중하고 있다. 그러나 Wafer 두께의 감소는 태양전지의 효율 감소와 공정 진행 중에 파손율이 상승하는 등의 문제가 발생한다. 이에 본 논문에서는 결정질 태양전지 구조 중에서 24.7% 이상의 최고 변환 효율을 갖는 PERL(Passivated Emitter, Rear Locally diffuse) 구조를 대상으로 wafer 두께 감소에 따른 변환 효율 감소의 원인과 해결 방안을 제시하고자 한다. Simulation으로 확인한 결과 370 um 두께의 wafer에서 24.2 %의 효율은 50 um 두께의 wafer에서는 20.8 %로 감소함을 확인할 수 있었다. 얇아진 wafer에서 감소한 효율을 개선하기 위하여 후면 recombination velocity, 후면 fixed charge density, 후면 산화막 두께 등을 다양화하여, 각각의 경우에 대한 cell의 효율 변화를 살펴보았다. 그 결과 후면 recombination velocity, 후면 fixed charge density, 후면 산화막 두께를 최적화 하여, 각각 2.8 %p, 1.5 %p, 2.8 %p의 효율 개선 효과를 얻었다. 위 세 가지 효과를 동시에 적용하면 50 um wafer에서 370 um wafer 효율의 결과와 근접한 24.2 %의 효율을 얻을 수 있었다. 향후에는 위의 결과를 바탕으로 실제 실험을 통하여 확인할 계획이다.

In this paper, a novel scheme for the condition monitoring of lithium polymer batteries is proposed, based on the sigma-point Kalman filter (SPKF) theory. For this, a runtime-based battery model is derived, from which the state-of-charge (SOC) and the capacity of the battery are accurately predicted. By considering the variation of the serial ohmic resistance ($R_o$) in this model, the estimation performance is improved. Furthermore, with the SPKF, the effects of the sensing noise and disturbance can be compensated and the estimation error due to linearization of the nonlinear battery model is decreased. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by Matlab/Simulink simulation and experimental results. The results have shown that in the range of a SOC that is higher than 40%, the estimation error is about 1.2% in the simulation and 1.5% in the experiment. In addition, the convergence time in the SPKF algorithm can be as fast as 300 s.

2000년 대에 들어 가파르게 성장하고 있는 우주비행체용 전기추진시스템의 안정적인 운영기술 개발을 위해, PIC-DSMC를 이용하여 전기추력기의 배기플룸의 거동을 해석하였다. 해석 방법에서 Boltzmann 관계식을 이용한 Simple Electron Fluid Model을 적용하였고, 원자-이온 간 충돌에 의해 발생하는 전하 교환 및 운동량 교환을 함께 고려하였다. 본 연구의 해석결과는 실험에서 계측한 플라즈마 전위값을 비교적 잘 예측하였다. 추력기 출구 근처에서는 활발한 입자 간 충돌 및 원자-이온 간 전하 교환으로 인해, 느린 이온 및 빠른 원자가 생성되었으며, 추력기 배기플룸의 궤적 및 속도에 중요한 영향을 미칠 것으로 예측되었다.

In this paper, the dependence of electrical characteristics of Silicon-$Al_2O_3$-Nitride-Oxide-Silicon (SANOS) memory cell transistors and program speed, reliability of memory device on interface trap between Si substrate and tunneling oxide was investigated. The devices were fabricated by the identical processing in a single lot except the deposition method of the charge trapping layer, nitride. In the case of P/E speed, it was shown that P/E speed is slower in the SONOS cell transistors with larger interface trap density by charge blocking effect, which is confirmed by simulation results. However, the data retention characteristics show much less dependence on interface trap. Therefore, to improve SANOS memory characteristic, it is very important to optimize the interface trap and charge trapping layer.

The effective energy management method will provide the significant advantage to the residential customers under real time pricing plan since it can reduce the electricity charge by controlling the energy consumption according to electricity rate. The earlier studies for load management mainly aim to minimize the electricity charges and peak power but put a less emphasis on the human comfort dwelling in the residence. The discomfort and displeasure from the energy management only focusing on reduction of electricity charge will make the residential customer reluctant to enroll the real time pricing plan. In this paper, therefore, we propose optimal load control strategy which aim to achieve not only minimizing the electricity charges but also maintaining human comfort by introducing "the human comfort coefficient." Using the human comfort coefficient, the energy management system can reflect the various human personality and control the loads within the range that the human comfort is maintained. Simulation results show that proposed load control strategy leads to significant reduction in the electricity charges and peak power in comparison with the conventional load management method.

석유화학산업단지에서는 화재의 위험성이 많은 석유관련 제품을 제조 생산하는 과정에서 화재, 누전, 정전기 등에 의한 폭발사고가 자주 발생하고 있다. 따라서 정전기를 체계적으로 관리하여 폭발사고를 미연에 예방할 수 있는 시스템의 개발이 필요한 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 최소제곱 회귀분석을 기초로 연산에 사용될 샘플의 수를 동적으로 변화시켜 정전기 값을 실시간으로 예측하는 PAD(Prediction Algorithm by Difference of sample value) 알고리즘을 개발하였다. 제안된 PAD알고리즘은 이전 값과 현재 값의 차이를 이용하여 임계값을 기준으로 연산샘플 개수를 3개로 할 것인지 6개로 할 것인지를 결정한다. 모의실험을 위해 공장에서 산출된 데이터를 사용하여 기존의 LSM(Least Square Method)알고리즘을 통해 연산에 사용될 고정된 샘플수 3, 6, 9개를 모의실험 한 결과 95% 신뢰확률에서 표준편차 75.17843, 81.13392, 107.3173을 각각 얻었다. PAD는 95% 신뢰확률에서 표준편차 73.18161을 나타내 기존의 방법보다 우수한 결과를 보였다.

In this paper, a new LED driving circuit which is able to control dimming of LED is proposed using charge pump. The proposed LED driving circuit steps down the input voltage to operate LED without DC-DC converter. The operation of this driving circuit is verified by P-Spice simulation, and the characteristics of the driving circuit is measured and evaluated in the experiments. As a result, the driving circuit efficiency of 88.5[%] is obtained when all LEDs are turned on by digital control method at the highest dimming level(255/255).

Recent environmental pollutions have intensified the need to develop zero emission vehicles. The most effect method of such solutions is EV. EV is high energy efficiency, easy to maintain, repair and is possible to make high performance control. However, because energy density of batteries is constrained and the distance covered one charge is short range. Also because EV has disadvantage of poor accelation ability, development of high performance battery is required for large scale use of EV. EV charger analogous to gas apparatus must also be developed immediately. Charger is discriminate between on-vehicle type and off-vehicle type. As off-vehicle type is able to charge fast and safe, inductive charging is considered. This paper aims to develope off-vehicle inductive charging system. Therefore, it achieved power factor correction converter, high frequency DC/AC inverter control algorithm development which gives proof validity through simulation and formulated the basic concept of high frequency transformer design for inductive charging.

To analyze Nonvolatile SNOSFET(polySilicon-Nitride-Oxide-Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor) memory device, two dimensional numerical computer simulation program was developed. The equation discretization was performed by the Finite difference method and the solution was derived by the Iteration method. The doping profile of n-channel device which was fabricated by 1Mbit CMOS process was observed. The electrical potential and the carrier concentration distribution to applied bias condition were observed in the inner of a device. As a result of the write and the erase to memory charge quantity, the threshold voltage shift is expected. Therefore, without device fabrication, the operating characteristics of the device was observed under various the processing and the operating condition.
