  • The purpose of the study is to determine grid cell of radar relationship, and to promote the radar data on hydrology field. The study region is the Chungjudam basin with a drainage area of $6,648km^{2}$ located within the 260 km circle under the DWSR-88C C-band umbrella(Kwanak Mt Radar). Grid cell was produced to extract radar reflectivity and rainfall data of the same time and point using Arc-view software package. The grid cell size is to estimate mean correlation coefficient for $1km{\times}1km,\;2km{\times}2km,\;3km{\times}3km$ grid. The result of mean correlation coefficient showed good result(0.57) for the $1km{\times}1km$ grid cell. The 32 rainfall stations Z-R relationship was estimated in Chungjudam basin.

  • Despite the high cost of memory and CPU time required to resolve the boundary layer, a viscous unstructured grid solver has many advantages over a structured grid solver such as the convenience in automated grid generation and vortex capturing by solution adaption. In present study, an unstructured Cartesian grid solver is developed on the basis of the existing Euler solver, NASCART-GT. Instead of cut-cell approach, immersed boundary approach is applied with ghost cell boundary condition, which can be easily applied to a moving grid solver. The standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ model by Launder and Spalding is employed for the turbulence modeling, and a new wall function approach is devised for the unstructured Cartesian grid solver. Developed approach is validated and the efficiency of the developed boundary condition is tested in 2-D flow field around a flat plate, NACA0012 airfoil, and axisymmetric hemispheroid.

  • Alternative energy sources such as renewable energy like solar power systems, wind power systems, or fuel cell power systems has been the rising issue in the electrical power system. This paper discusses an economic study analysis of fuel cells in the korean electricity market. It includes the basic concept of a fuel cell and the korean electricity market. It also describes the need of renewable energy and how the fuel cell is connected with the local grid. This paper shows the impact of production and recovering thermal energy of a grid-connected fuel cell power system. The profit maximization approach has been structured including electrical power trade with the local grid and heat trade within the micro-grid. The strategies are evaluated using a local load that uses electric and thermal power which has different patterns between summer and winter periods. The solution algorithm is not newly developed one, but is solved by an application called GAMS. Results indicate the need and usefulness of a fuel cell power system.

  • Dye-sensitized solar cell (DSC) based on some advantages such as transparency, cheap materials and anti-sensibility for an anlge of incidence has been expected to capture most of solar cell market in the near future. To practical use of DSC, researches on high efficiency as well as upscaling are necessary. In this study, we tried to insert the grid electrode in DSC and scribe transparent conducting oxide (TCO) using Nd:YAG laser. The grid electrode makes the electron movement improved and diffusional movement minimized. Consequently, the efficiency of DSC was increased by reducing electron loss and the surface resistance of TCO. The grid electrode was made using Ag target by radio frequency sputtering. And the scribed surface was confirmed by taking a scanning electron microscopy photos. As the result, grid cell had improved photocurrent and fill factor as compared with the conventional cell. And the efficiency was increased about 1% by enhanced photocurrent and fill factor.

  • Subspace clustering for online data streams requires a large amount of memory resources as all subsets of data dimensions must be examined. In order to track the continuous change of clusters for a data stream in a finite memory space, in this paper, we propose a grid-based subspace clustering algorithm that effectively uses memory resources. Given an n-dimensional data stream, the distribution information of data items in data space is monitored by a grid-cell list. When the frequency of data items in the grid-cell list of the first level is high and it becomes a unit grid-cell, the grid-cell list of the next level is created as a child node in order to find clusters of all possible subspaces from the grid-cell. In this way, a maximum n-level grid-cell subspace tree is constructed, and a k-dimensional subspace cluster can be found at the kth level of the subspace grid-cell tree. Through experiments, it was confirmed that the proposed method uses computing resources more efficiently by expanding only the dense space while maintaining the same accuracy as the existing method.

  • Recently, due to the use of fossil fuels for electric power production, carbon emissions increased excessively. Thereby, in order to replace fossil fuels, many studies about fossil fuels such as solar and fuel cell energy source are progressing. Fuel cell system has high energy conversion efficiency. Also, fuel cell system is environmentally friendly system because the carbon emission is almost not occur. Therefore, the fuel cell system is considered as the core technology of in the fields of the future energy and environmental. Fuel cell system has an effect on distribution power system because another power source of other than large power plants. So, fuel cell system can be degradation reason of power quality in the power system. In this paper, we constructed the system for an assessment on harmonics effect. The system is composed with power source, harmonics generation and linear load, fuel cell system. we also performed assessment on harmonics effect in customer and the distributed power system during grid connection of residential fuel cell system. An assessment cases are divided into three. A Case 1 is state that residential load and fuel system are connected to grid, Case 2 is state that residential load and harmonics load are connected to grid, and Case 3 is state that all loads are connected to grid. As a output of fuel cell system is increase, analysis results based on assessment system showed that power quality became more aggravation as effect of harmonics.

  • The conventional grid connected PV(Photovoltaic) system has a unstable output pattern due to its dependence on the weather condition, although solar-cell array averagely has a regular output characteristics to have a peak output nearly at noon. Therefore assuming the high density grid connection in the future, this unstable output pattern can be one of the main reasons to generate power disturbance such as voltage variation, frequency variation and harmonic voltage generation in low voltage distribution line. However general grid connected solar-cell system do not have functions to cope with these disturbances. Therefore this study proposed a advanced type grid connected PV system with functions to suppress output power fluctuation due to solar-cell array output variation and showed the levelling effect of fluctuation due to instantaneous array output variation.

  • A lot of researches and experiments have been performed to make more efficient dye-sensitized solar cell. Among them, insertion of a grid electrode in DSC is one method to increase overall performance as being shortened distance of electrons' movement by diffusion. In this paper, we measured overall characteristics which is included voltage-current characteristic curve, efficiency, fill factor by comparison between DSC without and with grid electrode. As a result, we got maximum 1.8 times increase of efficiency and approximately 1.7 times rise of fill factor. And we experimented 8, 10, 12, 14mm of grid gap and compared their results to optimize grid gap which is able to incite the most effective movement of electrons. Consequently, we got the result that electrons' movement is the most effect ive when grid gap is approximately 12mm.
