The term “energy saving is economical” is appropriate for the national view point and for design and assessment of one system, but not appropriate when choosing the system by comparing alternative systems in the early design step. Sometimes, non-energy saving system is more economical than energy saving system because of the price of electricity, gas or oil, which are used for operating the air conditioning system. Therefore, when designing a system, we should consider the efficient alternatives through economic assessment of energy saving method. However, research on non-operating number control of the system is not sufficient because it is more common to use operating number control of the system for most economic assessment of air conditioning systems. For this reason, this research can provide the economic operating number control method as basic design data. The data obtained through analysis of life cycle cost based on amount of yearly energy use, are produced by system simulation of HASP/ACLD/8501 and HASP/ACSS/8502 for six alternative heating$.$cooling systems based on seasonal air conditioning system, which is widely used for medium and large size office buildings in Busan.

The data obtained through assesment of Life Cycle Cost based on amount of yearly energy use, were produced by system simulation of HASP/ACLD/8501 and HASP/ACSS/8502 for six alternative heating/cooling systems based on constant air volume conditioning system, which is widely used for medium and large office buildings in Busan.

This paper discusses compressors operating number control strategy using cooperative logic to cope with variable partial load for high efficiency of a centrifugal water chiller. The cooperative logic is composed of a speed-up and speed-down controller, enabling smooth operation of compressors and equivalent distribution of thermal load in each compressor. This centrifugal water chiller design can be operated with high efficiency without incurring excessive energy waste and large transient phenomena at partial load states. Simulations in MATLAB and experiments in a real chiller system were conducted and verified the high efficiency control of a centrifugal water chiller achieved by the suggested strategy.

This paper proposes a hybrid phase windings excitation method for improving the efficiency of a 7-phase brushless DC (BLDC) motor in the electric propulsion system of a ship. The electrical losses of a BLDC motor system depend on the operating region and the number of excited phase windings (2-phase, 4-phase or general 6-phase windings). In this paper the operating region and torque/speed characteristics according to the motor rotation speed and propeller load are analyzed for a number of excitation methods. In addition, it analyzes the electrical losses of the system under each of the excitation methods in the entire operating region of the motor. In every sampling time, the proposed control method calculates the electrical loss of the system for each of the excitation methods and operates a 7-phase BLDC motor by selecting the excitation method that results a decreased electrical loss at the operating speed. The usefulness of the proposed control algorithm is verified through experimental results.

Robotics and automation are rapidly growing in the industries replacing human labor. The idea of robots replacing humans is positively influencing the business thereby increasing its scope of research. This paper discusses the development of an experimental platform controlled by a robotic arm through Robot Operating System (ROS). ROS is an open source platform over an existing operating system providing various types of robots with advanced capabilities from an operating system to low-level control. We aim in this work to control a 7-DOF manipulator arm (Robai Cyton Gamma 300) equipped with an external vision camera system through ROS and demonstrate the task of balancing a ball on a plate-type end effector. In order to perform feedback control of the balancing task, the ball is designed to be tracked using a camera (Sony PlayStation Eye) through a tracking algorithm written in C++ using OpenCV libraries. The joint actuators of the robot are servo motors (Dynamixel) and these motors are directly controlled through a low-level control algorithm. To simplify the control, the system is modeled such that the plate has two-axis linearized motion. The developed system along with the proposed approaches could be used for more complicated tasks requiring more number of joint control as well as for a testbed for students to learn ROS with control theories in robotics.

A mathematical model was developed for the simulation of a Pressure Swing Adsorption process with dehydrogenation reaction. The minimum number of beds and optimum operating sequence were determined using MINLP under the given operating conditions. Based on these results, we estimated the minimum annual cost.

온실의 환기제어시 외기의 온도와 풍속변화에 보다 유연하게 대처하면서 온도제어성능을 향상시키기 위하여 퍼지제어 알고리즘을 수립하고 제어실험을 실시하였다. 환기창을 열어 환기 시 온실의 실내온도 변화는 실내외온도차 및 외기 풍속의 세기와 방향에 영향을 받으므로 실내온도 기울기를 퍼지변수의 하나로 취급하여 퍼지변수의 수를 줄였다. 설정온도가 일정할 때 제어오차의 증분은 실내온도 증분과 같으므로, 전건부 퍼지변수는 제어오차(실내온도-설정온도)와 그 증분으로 결정하고, 후건부 퍼지변수는 환기창열음량 증분으로 결정하여 실내온도 하나만의 계측으로 제어출력이 가능한 퍼지제어 알고리즘을 구성하였다. 퍼지변수의 범위는 기초환기실험을 통하여 결정한 후 제어주기 3분을 갖는 실제실험 시 최적 값으로 보정하였다. 전건부 퍼지변수인 제어오차와 제어오차 증분의 최적범위는 각각 목표 제어오차의 3배와 1.5배, 후건부 퍼지변수인 환기창열음량 증분의 최적범위는 최대 열림량의 30%로 나타났다. 최적화한 19개의 퍼지규칙을 적용한 퍼지제어 알고리즘을 개발하고 상대적 성능평가를 위하여 최적 게인을 부여한 PID제어와 비교하였다. 퍼지제어와 PID제어의 실내온도 제어오차는 각각 1.3$^{\circ}C$, 2.2$^{\circ}C$ 미만으로 나타났다. 퍼지제어와 비교하였다. 퍼지제어와 PID제어의 실내온도 제어오차는 각각 1.3$^{\circ}C$, 2.2$^{\circ}C$ 미만으로 나타났다. 퍼지제어는 PID제어에 비해 환기창 적산열음량, 조작회수 및 반전조작회수가 0.4배, 05배 및 0.3배로 적게 나타나 외기풍속과 실내외온도차의 변동에 유연하게 대처하며 환기창의 점진적 여닫음 조작이 가능하고, 조작에너지도 1/2로 줄일 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

The fluid flow for a energy transfer is essential for the design and operation of power plants, petrochemical plants and ships including a process. When the operating conditions of a plant are changed or any transitional event occured, the flow controls of a fluid must be performed to follow the new operating state or mitigate the results of a event. Generally these flow controls to accommodate the new operating state of a plant are made by the use of various valves. The refore the design of valves and the related techniques are very important to the system and component designs. However the system and component design are not familiar with the practical theory of the valve since the derivative procedures of the flow equations in a valve are difficult and it is not easy to found the theoretical foundamentals and informations about the design of a valve from the present references. In this study the flow equations applicable to a valve for liquid are theoretically derived in detail. And the definition of valve reynolds number and its boundary values between the tubulent and laminar flow is described compared with the values of a circular pipe flow.

An electronic control system of the automobile engine for optimal start and idle speed control has been developed. This system employs the microcoputer-based electronic control unit and crank angle sensor for precise control on fuel injection, ignition timing, and idle speed more quickly and accurately at the start and idling. Consequently, the number of misfire can be reduced during been affected by air flow rate, idle quality(roughness), spark timing, fuel injection, water temperature, and load, Thus, this electronic control system strivers to reach the optimal idle operating point, defined the lowest idle speed(fuel economy) and idle quality(roughness), under any engine operating conditions.
