In order to support increased consumer awareness regarding energy consumption, we present new ways of monitoring and predicting with energy in electric appliances. The proposed system is a design of a common electrical power outlet called smart plug that measures the amount of current passing through current sensor at 0.5 second. To acquire data for training and testing the proposed neural network, weather parameters used include average temperature of day, min and max temperature, humidity, and sunshine hour as input data, and power consumption as target data from smart plug. Using the experimental data for training, the neural network model based on Back-Propagation algorithm was developed. Multi layer perception network was used for nonlinear mapping between the input and the output data. It was observed that the proposed neural network model can predict the power consumption quite well with correlation coefficient was 0.9965, and prediction mean square error was 0.02033.

Purpose - This study aims to present the changes and directions in the automotive supply chain in the face of changes in the global supply chain caused by external factors and the integration of industries resulting from internal factors. Assuming FDI in the Korean automotive industry in the US, this study analyzed the influential factors over the long term and derived the optimal location. Design/methodology - For this analysis, the characteristics and current status of the automotive industry are presented. Additionally, the study emphasizes the necessity and direction of change. The factors influencing Korea-US FDI in the automotive industry and the electric vehicle industry were analyzed through panel analysis. The optimal location from the perspective of distribution costs was selected using linear programming under the assumption that local demand will be replaced by local production in the future. Findings - This study found that the electric vehicle supply chain will change with the characteristics of the electric and electronic industries rather than with the traditional automotive industry. Additionally, in deriving the optimal location, the study emphasized the proximity to the consumption market. Originality/value - The analysis method and conclusions of this study not only present the influential factors and direction of FDI in the automotive industry but also can be applied to other industries. Moreover, the study provides practical and policy implications for industries and governments considering FDI in the US.

The electro-chemical decolorization of Rhodamine B (RhB) in water has been carried out by electro Fenton-like process. The effect of distance, material and shape of electrode, NaCl concentration, current, electric power, $H_2O_2$ and pH have been studied. The results obtained that decrease of RhB concentration of Fe(+)-Fe(-) electrode system was higher than that of other electrode system. The decrease of RhB concentration was not affected electrode distance and shape. Decolorization of electro Fenton-like reaction, which was added $H_2O_2$ onto the electrolysis using electrode was higher than electrolysis. Addition of NaCl decreased the electric consumption. The lower pH is, the faster initial reaction rate and reaction termination time observed.

Floating-type automatic turnout was developed for the purpose of reducing labor cost and labor-working hours related to turnout management. The point of automation is to use a flexible-float within the turnout. The weight of float is changed by emptying and filling with water at the beginning and ending of irrigation. The turnout is controlled to open and close small bole on the float bottom using electromagnets. With the weight control of float. the gate of turnout is opened by the empty float to begin irrigatiom and is closed by the filled float to stop irrigation. The turnout was designed to be operated by the main computer and to minimize electric power consumption by sending an electric current at the beginning and ending of irrigation. The functional experiment was succesfully carried out and the rating curves for both free overflow condition and submerged flow condition were derived.

A power meter is an instrument for measuring in watts the power flowing in a electric equipment. Since the value which a conventional power meter measures is analog, the power meter is hard to determine a phase difference between the voltage and current for a inductive load. The phase difference causes a loss of electric power and a increase of power-line load. In this paper, we propose a digital power meter using TI's DSP(Digital Singnal Processor) TMS320C5x, which is employed to calculate the phase difference and more accurate power consumption.

The DC overhead line voltage of an electric railway substation swings depending on the accelerating and regenerative-braking energy of trains, and it deteriorates the energy quality of the electric facility in the DC railway substation and restricts the powering and braking performance of subway trains. Recently, an energy storage system or a regenerative inverter has been introduced into railway traction substations to diminish both the variance of the overhead line voltage and the peak power consumption. In this study, the variance of the overhead line voltage in a DC railway substation is modelled by RC parallel circuits in each feeder, and the RC parameters are estimated using the recursive least mean square (RLMS) scheme. The forgetting factor values for the RLMS are selected using simulated annealing optimization, and the modelling scheme of the overhead line voltage variation is evaluated through raw data measured in a downtown railway substation.

The purpose of this study is to present the design standard for load density in subway station. From the data of electric equipment capacity and electric power consumption for 43 subway stations, current levels of the load density and excess capacity factor were surveyed and analyzed, In addition mean value, standard deviation, maximum value, median value and correlation coefficient were evaluated through excel program. Also it was carried out the regression analysis. The estimation method of load density and design criterion were studied. As a result, load density in this thesis have been proposed : 51.3 $[VA/m^2]$ on the general power load can be a standard value for subway station.

This study analyzes the mathematical relationship between DC-link voltage and system parameters for shunt active power filters (APFs). Analysis and mathematical deduction are used to determine the required minimum DC-link voltage for APF. A novel adaptive DC-link voltage controller for the three-phase four-wire shunt APF is then proposed. In this controller, the DC-link voltage reference value will be maintained at the required minimum voltage level. Therefore, power consumption and switching loss will effectively decrease. The DC-link voltage can also adaptively yield different DC-link voltage levels based on different harmonic currents and grid voltage levels and thus avoid the effects of harmonic current and grid voltage fluctuation on compensation performance. Finally, representative simulation and experimental results in a three-phase four-wire center-split shunt APF are presented to verify the validity and effectiveness of the minimum DC-link voltage design and the proposed adaptive DC-link voltage controller.

Over the last 100 years since the introduction of electricity, the nation has faced ever increasing demand for electricity as consequence of the rapid economic growth. The expanded consumption ratio for electricity naturally increased the possibility for electricity related accident mainly iii the form of electrically ignited fire and human injuries from electric shock. Under such circumstances, the presented study sets a focus on analysing the causes of the electrically related fire accidents happened in the nation over the last 10 years(in the 80's) to provide a scientific basis for identifying the cause of electric fires. Identification of the cause of fire ignited electrically may be approached either by studying accident related electrical properties or by investigating power instruments at the place of the accient. In the present paper, the former approach is taken especially on investigating the consequences of over current induced by short circuiting of high power instruments which is reported as the primary cause electricity related fire accidents. In order to provide reliability of the identification method, microscopic photograph's are taken for the cross sections of the electrical materials(fuse, wire, plug socket and plug) after being exposed to over current and heated by external means respectively. The results are consequently compared and analysed.
