This article presents computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations of nanoparticle movements and flow characteristics in laboratory-scale electrostatic precipitator (ESP) without corona discharge, and for simulation, it uses the commercial CFD program(CFD-ACE) including electrostatic theory and Lagrangian-based equation for nanoparticle movement. For validation of CFD results, a simple cylindrical type of ESP is simulated and numerical prediction shows fairly good agreement with the analytical solution. In particular, the present study investigates the effect of particle diameter, inlet flow rate, and applied electric potential on particle collection efficiency and compares the numerical prediction with the experimental data, showing good agreement. It is found that the particle collection efficiency decreases with increasing inlet flow rate because the particle detention time becomes shorter, whereas it decreases with the increase in nanoparticle diameter and with the decrease of applied electric voltage resulting from smaller terminal electrostatic velocity.

Plasma surface coating is applied to the wood powder to improve its bonding and dispersion with the polypropylene(PP). Some mechanical test results and visual inspection indicates the good compatibility between the wood powder and the PP, and relatively good interfacial adhesion between wood powder and PP matrix was seen. Also, this method is considered as a non-toxic process as compared to other direct chemical method.

We investigated the amount of the toxic gases emitted from the Electrostatic Precipitators(ESPs), which were currently used by indoor air cleaners. We used the wire-to-plate(WTP) type and the needle-to-plate(NTP) type corona discharger in our study. Using the voltage, the polarity of wire, the number of needles of NTP as the input variables, we studied the characteristic of Ozone and $NO_x$ generation in the ESPs. As the results, we found out that the concentration of Ozone, $NO_2$ and $NO_x$ is increased, but the amount of NO is decreased with increasing the voltage and the number of needles. And we knew that the generation rate of ozone and $NO_x$ is very related with the corona region.

Synthesis of silver nanoparticles by the supersonic nozzle expansion method with corona discharge ions was investigated. Corona discharge ions functioned as seeds for heterogeneous nucleation in the silver nanoparticles formation process and provided silver nanoparticles with electronic repulsive force that prevents aggregation of the particles. For ion ejecting, we used sonic-jet corona discharger. Upon application of the corona discharge ions, the mean diameter of the produced particles was decreased from 12.54 to 6.22nm and the standard deviation was decreased from 5.02 to 3.34nm. In addition, the agglomeration of silver nanoparticles was reduced.

A new low cost high power density photovoltaic power conditioning system (PV PCS) with an energy storage system is proposed in this paper. Its high power density and cost effectiveness can be achieved through the unification of the maximum power point tracker and the battery charger/discharger. Despite the reduced power stage, the proposed system can achieve the same performance in terms of maximum power point tracking and battery charging/discharging as the conventional system. When a utility power failure happens, the proposed system cannot perform maximum power point tracking at the UPS mode. However, the predetermined battery voltage near the maximum power point of the PV array can effectively generate a reasonable PV power even at the UPS mode. Therefore, it features a simpler structure, less mass, lower cost, and fewer devices. Finally, to confirm the operation, validity, and features of the proposed system, a theoretical analysis and experimental results from a single phase AC 220Vrms/1.5kW prototype are presented.

The existing capacitor-testers could only judge the condition of capacitor is normal or abnormal, and could not inform the real characteristics of the tested capacitors. In this research, it has designed the real-time observation of the new capacitor in charge and discharge tester for showing capacitor conditions and classification through wide voltages by regular cycle-tests. And proposed the quality classification algorithm of capacitors for more simple and practical, and approve them by test.

최근 하이브리드 자동차, 지능형 자동차 등을 비롯한 미래형 자동차 분야와 관련된 연구 개발과 맞물려 자동차 전장 회로 시스템은 더욱 복잡해지고 있다. 자동차 전장 시스템의 경향으로 그린카를 들 수 있는데 이에 대한 하나의 방향성은 연비 개선과 최적의 운행조건을 위한 ISG System( Idle Stop & Go system )의 채택으로 가고 있는 추세이다. 여러 장점을 가진 ISG 시스템이지만 시동 모드 시 많은 양의 전류가 순간적으로 흘러가 일순간 전압강하 발생과 높은 스위칭 주파수에 의한 표피효과가 일어난다. 이를 제어하는 기술로 전장회로상의 DC/DC 컨버터 기술이 핵심이라 할 수 있다. 이에 따라 본 논문에서는 확장성이 용이한 고효율 DC/DC 컨버터를 제안하고 모의 실험과 실제 실험을 통해 검토한다.

This paper proposes the development of double conversion Uninterruptible Power Supply using 3-Level Converter/TNPC Inverter. The Rectifier of proposed system is operating not only 3-Level boost PFC but also battery discharger. The Inverter is converting DC voltage to AC voltage. And in terms of the efficiency, 3-Level TNPC inverter is improved compared to the origin 2-Level type. To verify the validity of proposed system, experiments were carried out.
