With the increase of consumption of new renewable energy, the use of Electric Double Layer Capacitor(EDLC) is being gradually widened as the next generation energy storage device. In order to expand the market of EDLC which is recently receiving a lot of attraction as a new promising area, development of a charge/discharge cycle tester to measure and test performance, is essential. Therefore, this research designed a circuit to measure capacity and internal resistance and a circuit to measure voltage maintenance properties, based on EDLC's basic charging/discharging properties so it is able to measure the state of charge and discharge at high speed. When evaluating performance characteristics, the 5[V]/100[A] prototype-EDLC charge/discharge testing system developed for this research showed ${\pm}0.1$[%] of accuracy of voltage and current measurement. It was also proved that the developed charge/discharge testing system for EDLC can be applied to the actual industry, when testing the entire system using a program produced for data monitoring and acquisition.

일반전원이 공급되지 않은 광파표지는 태양광을 이용한 전력공급시스템을 사용하고 있다. 이러한 전력공급시스템에서는 충 방전조절기의 역할이 매우 중요하다. 항로표지의 효과적인 관리를 위해 도입된 IT기술(AIS통신 등)은 광파표지에 전력을 사용하는 장치를 추가하게 됨으로써 충 방전조절기의 중요성이 증가하고 있다. 현재 운용되는 충 방전조절기는 항로표지 내부에 부착되어 해상환경에 따라 점검 및 확인하는데 어려움이 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해서 본 논문에서는 충 방전조절기에 블루투스 모듈을 구성하여 근거리 점검이 가능한 모니터링 시스템을 제안하였다. 제안한 시스템은 도입 비용이 적고, 구성이 간편하여 다양한 항로표지에 응용가능한 장점이 있다. 또한 근거리에서 충 방전조절기의 실시간 상태정보를 확인할 수 있어서 점검 비용을 절감하고, 점검 시 발생 가능한 위험요소를 줄일 수 있다.

To increase the efficiency of the photovoltaic, almost photovoltaic appliances are controlled by Maximum Power Point Tracking(MPPT). Existing most of the PV MPPT techniques have used power which multiplies sensed output current and voltage of the solar cell. However, these algorithms are unnecessarily complicated and too expensive for small and compact system. The other hand, the proposed MPPT technique is only one sensing of the MPPT converter's output current, so there is no need to insert another sensors of battery side. Therefore, this algorithm is simpler compared to the traditional approach and is suitable for low power solar system. Further, the novel proper charge/discharge algorithm for the battery with PV MPPT is developed. In this algorithm, there is CC battery charge mode and load discharge mode of the PV cell & battery dual. Also we design current control to regulate allowable current during the battery charging. The proposed algorithm will be applicable to battery included solar cell applications like solar lantern and solar remote control car. Finally, the proposed method has been verified with computer simulation.

A battery is the device that transforms the chemical energy into the direct-current electrical energy directly without a mechanical process. Unit cells are connected in series to obtain the necessary voltage, while being connected in parallel to organize capacity for load current and to decrease the internal resistance for corresponding the sudden shift of the load current. The circular-current, however, could be occurred when the system is driven in parallel. As a result, the new batteries are heated by over-change and discharge, and the over charge current makes to increase the rust of the positive grid and consequently the shortened life of the new batteris would be shown. In this paper, the internal resistance of charge and discharge will be balanced, through inserting the resistance into the system by way of calculation of the changed amount of internal resistance.

In this work, soft carbons produced by pyrolysis of petroleum and coal-tar pitch were used as the negative electrode for Li-ion batteries. We studeid the charge/discharge capacity and the interfacial reaction of these electrodes by constructing a half cell. Charge/discharge property was studied by a constant-current step and the interfacial reaction between the electrolyte and the surface of a carbon electrode was studied by the cyclic voltammetry. The initial charge/discharge capacity for the coal-tar pitch carbon increased exceedingly with the heat treatment temperature. On hte other hand, the capacity of the petroleum pitch carbon increased with temperature up to 1000$^{\circ}C$, thereafter decreased continuously. While the charge capacity decreased with the cycle number, the reversibility increased above 90%. In addition, the thermal stability and crystallization of petroleum and coal-tar pitches were analyzed by TGA and XRD, respectively.

A battery is the device that transforms the chemical energy into the direct-current electrical energy without a mechanical process. Unit cells are connected in series to obtain the required voltage while being connected in parallel to organize capacity for load current. Because the voltage drop down in one set of battery is faster than in two one it may result in the low efficiency of power converter with the voltage drop and cause the system shutdown. However when the system being shutdown. However when the system being driven in parallel a circular-current can be generated,. It is shown that as a result the new batteries are heated by over-charge and over-discharge and the over charge current increases rust of the positive grid and consequently shortens the lifetime of the new batteries. The difference between the new batteries and old ones is the amount of internal resistance. In this paper we can detect the unbalance current using the microprocessor and achieve the balance current by adjusting resistance of each set, The internal resistance of each set becomes constant and the current of charge and discharge comes to be balanced by inserting the external resistance into the system and calculating the change of internal resistance.

The discharge characteristics of a prototype ion source was investigated, which was developed and upgraded for the NBI (Neutral Beam Injection) heating system of KSTAR (Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research). The ion source was designed for the arc discharge of magnetic bucket chamber with multi-pole cusp fields. The ion source was discharged by the emission-limited mode with the control of filament heating voltage. The maximum ion density was 4 times larger than the previous discharge controlled by a space-charge-limited mode with fully heated filament. The plasma (ion) density and arc current were proportional to the filament voltage, but the discharge efficiency was inversely proportional to the operating pressure of hydrogen gas. The maximum ion density and arc current were obtained with constant arc voltage ($80{\sim}100V$), as $8{\times}10^{11}cm^{-3}$ and 1200 A, respectively. The estimated maximum beam current was about 35 A, extracted by the accelerating voltage of 80kV.

In micro-EBM, it is well blown that RC circuit is suitable for discharge circuit because of its low pulse width and relatively high peak current. To increase machining speed without changing unit discharge energy, charge resistance should be decreased. But, if very low, continuous (or normal) arc discharge occurs, then increases electrode wear and reduces machining speed remarkably. In this paper, RC circuit with transistor is used to micro-EDM. Experimental results show that RC circuit with transistor can cut off continuous (or normal) arc discharge effectively if duty factor and switching period of transistor are set up optimally. Through experiments with varying charge resistance, it can be known that RC circuit with transistor has about two times faster machining speed than that of RC circuit. Especially, it has prominent rise-effect of machining speed in low unit discharge energy, so that a high-quality and high-speed micro-EDM can be realized through RC circuit with transistor.
