The objective of this paper is to propose a modelling of a small compressed air energy storage system, which drives an induction generator based on a field-oriented control (FOC) principle for a renewable power generation. The proposed system is a hybrid technology of energy storage and electrification, which is developed to use as a small scale of renewable energy power plant. The energy will be transferred from the renewable energy resource to the compressed air energy by reciprocating air compressor to be stored in a pressurized vessel. The energy storage system uses a small compressed air energy storage system, developed as a small unit and installed above ground to avoid site limitation as same as the conventional CAES does. Therefore, it is suitable to be placed at any location. The system is operated in low pressure not more than 15 bar, so, it easy to available component in country and inexpensive. The power generation uses a variable speed induction generator (IG). The relationship of pressure and air flow of the compressed air, which varies continuously during the discharge of compressed air to drive the generator, is considered as a control command. As a result, the generator generates power in wide speed range. Unlike the conventional CAES that used gas turbine, this system does not have any combustion units. Thus, the system does not burn fuel and exhaust pollution. This paper expresses the modelling, thermodynamic analysis simulation and experiment to obtain the characteristic and performance of a new concept of a small compressed air energy storage power plant, which can be helpful in system designing of renewable energy electrification. The system was tested under a range of expansion pressure ratios in order to determine its characteristics and performance. The efficiency of expansion air of 49.34% is calculated, while the efficiency of generator of 60.85% is examined. The overall efficiency of system of approximately 30% is also investigated.

As the aged population grows around the world, many medical instruments and devices have been developed recently. Among the devices, a drug delivery stent is a medical device which requires precision machining. Conventional drug delivery stent has problems of residual polymer and decoating because the drug is coated on the surface of stent with the polymer. If the drug is impregnated in micro hole array on the surface of the stent, the problem can be solved. Micro sized holes are generally fabricated by laser machining; however, the fabricated holes do not have an enough aspect ratio to contain the drug or a good surface finish to deliver it to blood vessel tissue. To overcome these problems, we propose a vibration-assisted machining mechanism with PZT (Piezoelectric Transducers) for the fabrication of micro sized holes. If the mechanism vibrates the eyepiece of the laser machining head, the laser spot on the workpiece will vibrate vertically because objective lens in the eyepiece shakes by the mechanism's vibration. According to the former researches, the vibrating frequency over 20kHz and amplitude over 500nm are preferable. The vibration mechanism has cylindrical guide, hollowed PZT and supports. In the cylinder, the eyepiece is mounted. The cylindrical guide has upper and low plates and side wall. The shape of plates and side wall are designed to have high resonating frequency and large amplitude of motion. The PZT also is selected to have high actuating force and high speed of motion. The support has symmetrical and rigid characteristics.

전기추진선박의 추진시스템에 주로 사용되는 3상 정류기의 입력전류는 다양한 저차 고조파를 포함하고 있다. 이러한 고조파 저감을 위해서 대전력이 필요한 대형 선박에 사용되는 전력변환장치는 12펄스 출력의 정류기가 현재 사용되고 있지만 여전히 $12{\pm}1$차의 고조파가 발생되는 문제점이 있다. 또한, 속도 및 토크 제어기법으로 널리 사용되고 있는 직접토크제어기법의 경우에는 토크 리플이 심하고 전동기의 입력전류는 인버터의 스위칭에 의해 고조파를 크게 포함하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 직접토크제어기법을 이용하는 전기추진시스템의 12펄스 정류기에 보조 전원을 공급하여 고조파를 저감하고 토크 제어성능을 향상시켰으며 실선시스템 환경에서 시뮬레이션을 통해 그 유효성을 입증하였다.

균사형성 미생물에 의한 항생물질의 대량생산은 적절한 산소공급이 요구되며, 산소전달속도는 생산성에 영향을 미치는 속도제한단계이다. 그러므로 발효에 이용하기 위해 Streptomyces avermitilis 와 같은 균사형성 미생물 배양액에서의 산소전달계수를 측정하였다. 그러나 회분식 배양에서 (K$_{L}$A) 측정을 위한 적절한 용존산소 유지가 어려웠으며, 이를 극복하기 위해서 유가식 배양을 도입하였다. 배지의 단계적 공급으로 미생물 성장속도를 조절할 수 있었고, 낮은 교반속도에서도 적정용존산소의 유지가 가능하였으며, 결과적으로 (K$_{L}$A) 측정도 용이하였다. 7 g/L 이하의 낮은 균체량에서 350 rpm의 교반속도가 교반효율과 전단응력을 고려했을 때 가장 적절한 조건임을 알수 있었다. 그러나 균체가 증가할수록 배양액 점도가 증가하여 혼합이 효과적이지 못한 이유로 더 높은 교반속도가 필요하였다. 통기량의 증가에 의한 (K$_{L}$A) 증가율은 건조균제질량이 고 농도 일수록 미미하였다. 그러므로 높은 균체농도에서는 이차대사산물에 영향을 주지 않은 범위에서 교반속도를 증가하여 용존산소 농도를 조절하는 것이 통기속도의 조절보다 더 효율적 일 것으로 판단되었다.판단되었다.

2014년에 완공된 남극 장보고 과학기지 주변 테라노바 만은 연중 해빙이 넓게 분포하고 있어 쇄빙선의 항해에 매우 큰 영향을 미치고 있다. 이 연구에서는 수동 마이크로파 센서인 Special Sensor Microwave/Imager (SSM/I) 및 Special Sensor Microwave Imager/Sounder (SSMIS)의 최근 10년간 해빙 면적비 자료와 우리나라의 쇄빙 연구선인 아라온호의 2010-2012년 항해 경로를 이용하여 장보고 과학기지 방문을 위한 쇄빙선의 최적 항로와 항해 가능 기간을 분석하였다. 아라온호는 최대 78%의 해빙 면적비를 보이는 지역까지 항해가 가능하였다. 아라온호의 항해속도는 해빙 면적비가 높을수록 감소하였으나, 70%의 해빙 면적비까지는 전체 항로에 대한 평균속도(~11 kn)에 근접한 속도를 나타냈다. 이에 따라 아라온호는 70% 이하의 해빙 면적비까지 일반적 운항이 가능하다고 판단하였다. 2010-2012년에 아라온호가 항해한 경로에 대해, 최근 10년 동안의 해빙 면적비 자료로부터 70% 이하의 해빙 면적비를 나타내는 연중 항해가능 기간을 도출하였다. 2010년과 2011년의 항로에 대한 10년 동안의 연중 최대 항해 가능 기간은 각각 연 61일과 62일이었으나, 70% 이하의 해빙 면적비가 관찰되지 않아 일반적인 항해가 어려운 연도가 일부 관찰 되었다. 반면 2012년의 아라온호 항해 경로는 매년 70% 이하의 해빙 면적비를 나타내는 항해 가능 기간이 존재하였으며, 이는 최소 연 15일에서 최대 연 89일로 분석되었다. 이를 통해 2012년에 운항한 아라온호의 항로가 장보고 과학기지 방문을 위한 쇄빙선의 최적 항로임을 제시할 수 있었다. 하지만 수 십 km의 해상도를 가지는 해빙 면적비 자료로는 장보고기지 연안에 근접한 해빙 상태를 알 수 없기 때문에, 고해상도의 광학 및 SAR 자료를 이용한 연구가 필요할 것으로 보인다.

The effects of pre-treatments, the hot water extraction of wood meal and the addition of chemical ($CaCl_2$) to wood-cement water system on the properties of wood-cement composite such as modulus of rupture (MOR), modulus of elasticity (MOE), water sorption ratio and swelling ratio of resulting boards were studied in this experiment. The wood meals through 0.83mm(20 mesh) and retained on 0.42mm(35 mesh) screen were prepared from Pinus densiflora S. at Z. and Larix leptolepsis G. For hot water extraction, 500 grams of wood meal for each species were heated to boiling with 1,500ml of distilled water in 2-liter beaker for 6 hours. Every 2 hours, the wood meals were washed with boiling distil1ed water and reheated to boiling again. After 6 hours boiling, the boiled wood particles were collected by pouring this particles on 200 mesh screen. The collected particles then washed twice with hot distilled water and dried for 24 hours in an oven at $109{\pm}20^{\circ}C$. A mixture of 663.4 grams of cement with 331.7 grams of wood meal based on oven-dry weight were dry-mixed in a plastic vessel. The mixture was kneaded with 497.6ml of distilled water in the ratio of 1.5ml of water to a gram of wood meal. To add calcium chloride to the mixture as an accelerator, $CaCl_2$ 4% solution by weight per volume, was added to pine-or larch-cement board in the ratio of 3% to cement weight. To set wood-cement board, this mixture was clamped at 30cm ${\times}$ 30cm, in thickness of 1.5cm for 3 days at room temperature, declamped and then placed at open condition for 17 days. The target density was 1.0. The four specimens sized to 5cm in width and 28cm in length were used for MOR and MOE test for each treatment. After MOR test, the tested specimens were cut to the size of 5cm ${\times}$ 5cm for water sorption and swelling test. The twenty specimens used to measure the water sorption ratio (soaking 24 hours) and ten of these were used for swelling ratio measurement The results obtained were as follows: 1) Larch was not suitable for wood-cement boards because larch-cement board developed no strength, but pine showed 97.9kg/$cm^2$ by hot water extraction. 2) To increase MOR, hot water extraction was more effective than the addition of $CaCl_2$ in pine and larch because the $CaCl_2$ addition was seemed to speed up the ratio of cement hydration without reacting with the wood substances. 3) The water sorption ratio was lowered by the addition of $CaCl_2$ to wood-cement system because the chemical additive accelerated the rate of cement hydration. 4) In pine-cement board, the swelling ratio from 0.37 to 0.42 percent was observed in length and the swelling ratio from 0.88 to 2.0 percent in thickness. As a rule, the swelling ratio of wood-cement board was very low and the swelling ratio in thickness was higher than in length.
