The displacement Deep-V catamaran concept was developed in Newcastle University(UNEW) through development of the systematic Deep-V catamaran series. One of the most important Deep-V catamaran launched to date is Newcastle University's own multi-purpose research vessel, The Princess Royal. The vessel was launched in 2011 and enhanced the Deep-V catamaran concept further with the successful adoption of a novel anti-slamming bulbous bow and tunnel stern for improved efficiency. It was however identified that the vessel has substantial amount of dynamic trim that limited the visibility of the captain. The dynamic trim also increased the wave-making resistance thereby preventing the vessel from attaining its maximum speed in certain sea states. This paper therefore presents the application of devices such as Trim Tabs, Interceptors, Transom Wedges and Integrated Transom Wedges-Tabs to control the dynamic trim and improvement of fuel efficiency of the vessel. All of these energy saving devices were fitted into a model for tests in Newcastle University's Towing Tank. Model test verification confirmed that the optimum appendage was the interceptors, they produced a 5% power saving and 1.2 degree trim reduction at 15 knots, and investigations of full scale trials will be scheduled with and without application of device to compare the improvement of performance.

Electrochromic (EC) device is an element whose transmittance is changed by electrical energy. Coloring and decoloring states can be easily controlled and thus used in buildings and automobiles for energy saving. There exist several types of EC devices; EC using electrolytes, polymer dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC), and suspended particle device (SPD) using polarized molecules. However, these devices involve solutions such as electrolytes and liquid crystals, limiting their applications in high temperature environments. In this study, we have studied all-solid-state EC device based on Tin(IV) oxide (SnO₂). A coloring phase is achieved when electrons are accumulated in the ultraviolet (UV)-treated SnO₂ layer, whereas a decoloring mode is obtained when electrons are empty there. The UV treatment of SnO₂ layer brings in a number of localized states in the bandgap, which traps electrons near the conduction band. The SnO₂-based EC device shows a transmittance of 70.7% in the decoloring mode and 41% in the coloring mode at a voltage of 2.5 V. We have achieved a transmittance change as large as 29.7% at the wavelength of 550 nm. It also exhibits fast and stable driving characteristics, which have been demonstrated by the cyclic experiments of coloration and decoloration. It has also showed the memory effects induced by the insulating layer of titanium dioxide (TiO₂) and silicone (Si).

에너지 절약형 전열제품 개발은 유가상승에 따라 국가의 최대 현안으로 꼽히고 있다. 따라서 최근에는 이러한 문제점들을 대처하기 위해 전기를 이용한 난방장치에 대한 에너지의 효율적 사용측면에서 경제성과 안정성을 높이기 위한 지속적인 연구 연구개발이 이루어지고 있고, 특히 고성능 및 신기능 소재에 대한 기술개발이 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 본 논문은 에너지 전달특성이 우수한 전열제품 개발에 관한 것으로 고효율 유도가열 장치에 관한 연구이다. 유도가열은 전자유도현상을 이용한 것으로 기존의 전도나 대류와 같은 열전달 방식과는 전혀 다르게 중간매질이 없이 피가열물에 직접 흡수되어 열로 전환되므로 급속, 균일하게 가열시키는 특징을 가진다. 또한 고주파 유도가열은 다양한 구조 설계가 가능하므로 가열 발열체를 적절히 활용하면 피가열물만을 집중가열 하는 것이 가능하다.

스마트폰은 일반 휴대폰의 기능에 컴퓨터 기능을 추가한 지능형 단말기로 사용자의 요구를 수행하기 위해 처리능력이 뛰어난 프로세서와 다양한 통신모듈(DMB, Wi-Fi, 블루투스, NFC 등)을 내장하고 있다. 하지만, 제한되어 있는 배터리 전력을 프로세서와 내장된 통신모듈이 지속적으로 사용하게 된다면 배터리의 수명은 비례하여 줄어들게 된다. 따라서 시스템 실행 및 통신모듈 디바이스별 전력소모량 관리는 연구분야에서 중요한 이슈 중 하나이다. 본 논문에서는 스마트폰 환경에서 배터리 절감을 위하여 에너지소모량, 전송시간을 고려하여 통신모듈을 자동 제어하는 기법을 제안한다. 본 시스템은 통신모듈을 자동선택하는 기능 뿐만 아니라 휴면모드 시 에너지 소모가 큰 블루투스를 제어함으로 효과적인 에너지관리와 사용자 편의성을 높이는 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 실험 결과 20%의 에너지 절감효과를 얻을 수 있었다.

Because the perimeter of buildings is strongly influenced by solar and the outdoor air temperature, the area has different environmental properties compared to the interior of a building, as in summer heat gain, and in winter heat loss. In particular, if the external wall is glass, the characteristics of the glass material make it pervious to outside conditions, thereby making big changes to the thermal environment. By combining shading device and the efficient exhaust system, an energy saving can be achieved compared to no air barrier systems. The simplified air barrier system is developed with the idea that energy could be conserved by carefully and effectively blowing out the air caught between the glass surface and the roller blind. The way it is configured is therefore by making the roller blind's air-path, and by placing the air output ducts in the most optimum positions. This simplified air barrier system will give improvement in the thermal environment of the parameter area that is strongly affected by solar and the outdoor condition.

Recently the researchers has been interested in the development of the high performance windows such as solar control window using automatic shading devices, air-flow window, selective coating window. In order to assess the energy performance of total fenestration system, the net energy gains or losses through the glazings and windows should be evaluated. It depends on the thermal transmittance (U-value) and the total solar energy transmittance (SHGC, g-value). This study aims to measure the solar heat gain coefficient according to the NFRC 201 standard test method. In results, we could find the result of different SHGC of the glazing system with a different slat angles. The SHGC in case of $90^{\circ}$ of internal slat angle with regard to the window surface is about 0.56, that in case of $45^{\circ}$ is about 0.49 and that in case of $0^{\circ}$ is about 0.33. Significant dependence on the solar radiation intensity and incident angle was found in comparison of the measured and simulated SHGC.

Post swirl stator is an energy saving device to recover rotational energy of the propeller. To optimize the performance of post swirl stator in container vessels, computational fluid dynamics using body force method was introduced. A commercial code Fluent was used in conjunction with body force distributed on the surface of actuator disk which is located in the propeller plane to optimize pitch angle of the post swirl stator blade. This study showed that CFD is an important tool to simulate flow behind ship with propeller, rudder and post swirl stator.

In this research, we have studied the development of dc-dc converter suitable for the driving of mobile instruments by using a dye-sensitized solar cell(DSC). We also have designed a interlocking circuit. The circuit makes power from DSC be saved in one battery and concurrently be discharged in the other battery. As this application, mobile devices like MP3, cellular phone are drived by using power from DSC during the daytime and they can be drived by using the saving energy of the daytime during the night. Besides, we designed dc-dc converter circuit to drive low power instruments by using NMOS switch and PMOS rectifier.

When an automatic course-keeping is concerned , as is quite popular in modern navigation, the closed-loop steering system consists of autopilot device, power unit(or telemotor unit), steering gear, magnetic or gyro compass and ship dynamics. In order to estimate steering system of ship in open seas, we need to know the characteristics of each component of the system and also to know the characteristics of disturbance to ship dynamics. Calculation methods of irrgular disturbances are based on the linear superposition principle. In this paper, for the purpose of evaluation of automatic steering of ships , the influences of linear control constants of autopilot on propulsive energy loss are investigated bya performance index is introduced from the viewpoint of energy saving. Numberical calculations are carried out for an are carrier and for a fishing boat in multi-directional waves.
