Capturing the carbon dioxide emitted from coal-fired power plants will be necessary if targeted reduction in carbon emissions is to be achieved. Modelling and simulation are the base for optimal operation and control in thermal power plant and also play an important role in energy savings. This study aims to analyze the performance of supercritical coal fired power plant through steady and dynamic simulation using a commercial software gCCS. A whole power plant has been modeled and validated with design data of 500 MWe power plant, base and part load operations of the plant were also evaluated, consequently it had been proven that the simulated result had a good agreement with actual operating data. In addition, the effect of co-firng on the plant efficiency and flue gases were investigated using gCCS simulator.

The output power efficiency of the fuel cell system depends on the demanded current, stack temperature, air excess ratio, hydrogen excess ratio and inlet air humidity. Thus, it is necessary to determine the optimal operation condition for maximum power efficiency. In this paper, we developed a dynamic model of fuel cell system which contains mass flow model, diffusivity gas layer model, membrane hydration and electrochemistry model. In order to determine the maximum output power and minimum use of hydrogen in a certain power condition, response surface methodology (RSM) optimization based on the proposed PEMFC stack model is presented. The results provide an effective method to optimize the operation condition under varied situations.

This paper presents a novel design of a fuzzy control strategy (FCS) based on torque distribution for parallel hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs). An empirical load-regulating vehicle operation strategy is developed on the basis of analysis of the components efficiency map data and the overall energy conversion efficiency. The aim of the strategy is to optimize the fuel economy and balance the battery state-of-charge (SOC), while satisfying the vehicle performance and drivability requirements. In order to accomplish this strategy, a fuzzy inference engine with a rule-base extracted from the empirical strategy is designed, which works as the kernel of a fuzzy torque distribution controller to determine the optimal distribution of the driver torque request between the engine and the motor. Simulation results reveal that compared with the conventional strategy which uses precise threshold parameters the proposed FCS improves fuel economy as well as maintains better battery SOC within its operation range.

Polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) electrolyzer or alkaline electrolyzer is required to produce green hydrogen using renewable energy such as wind and/or solar power. PEM and alkaline electrolyzer differ in many ways, instantly basic materials, system configuration, and operation characteristics are different. Building an optimal water hydrolysis system by closely grasping the characteristics of each type of electrolyzer is of great help in building a safe hydrogen ecosystem as well as the efficiency of green hydrogen production. In this study, the basic operation characteristics of a kW class alkaline water electrolyzer we developed, and water electrolysis efficiency are described. Finally, a brief overview of the characteristics of PEM and alkaline electrolyzer for large-capacity green hydrogen production system will be outlined.

Adaptive Maximum Torque Per Amp (Adaptive MTPA) control for induction motor drives seeks to achieve a desired torque with the minimum possible stator current regardless of operating points. This is favorable in terms of inverter operation and nearly optimal in terms of motor efficiency. However, the Adaptive MTPA control was validated only from the viewpoint of tracking a desired torque and was not shown that the desired torque is achieved with minimum possible stator current. This work experimentally demonstrates that optimal condition for Adaptive Maximum Torque Per Amp Control Strategy is achieved regardless of rotor resistance variation.

The introduction of competition in electricity market emphasizes the importance of sufficient transmission capacities to guarantee various electricity transactions. Therefore, when dispatch scheduling, transmission security constraints should be considered for the economic and stable electric power system operation. In this paper, we propose an optimal dispatch scheduling algorithm incorporating transmission security constraints. For solving these constraints, the dispatch scheduling problem is decomposed into a master problem to calculate a general optimal power flow (OPF) without transmission security constraints and several subproblems to inspect the feasibility of OPF solution under various transmission line contingencies. If a dispatch schedule given by the master problem violates transmission security constraints, then an additional constraint is imposed to the master problem. Through these iteration processes between the master problem and subproblems, an optimal dispatch schedule reflecting the post-contingency rescheduling is derived. Moreover, since interruptible loads can positively participate as generators in the competitive electricity market, we consider these interruptible loads active control variables. Numerical example demonstrates efficiency of the proposed algorithm.

In recent years, since the continuing increase in the capacity in personal computer such as the optimal performance, high quality and high resolution image, the computer system's components produce large amounts of heat during operation. This study analyzes and investigates the ability and efficiency of a cooling system inside a computer by means of central processing unit (CPU) and power supply cooling fan. This research was conducted to enhancement of efficiency of the cooling system inside the computer by making a structure which produces different air pressures in an air inflow tube. Consequently, when temperatures of the CPU and room inside computer were compared with a general personal computer, temperatures of the tested CPU, the room and the heat sink were as low as $5^{\circ}C$, $2.5^{\circ}C$ and $7^{\circ}C$ respectively. In addition to, revolution per minute (RPM) was shown as low as 250 after 1 hour operation. This research explored the possibility of enhancing the effective cooling of high-performance computer systems.

건물 에너지 커미셔닝은 건축물의 계획, 설계, 시공, 시공 후 설비의 시운전 및 유지 관리를 포함한 전 공정을 효율적으로 검증하고 문서화하여 에너지의 낭비 및 운영상의 문제점을 최소화하는 공정 기술이다. 일반적인 커미셔닝은 설계 기준에 적합한 성능을 발휘할 수 있도록 설비의 교체를 추진한다. 이는 비용이 많이 들며 투자비 회수기간이 오래 걸리는 단점을 지니고 있다. 본 논문에서는 ICT(Information Communication Technology)를 기반으로 에너지 사용 데이터 분석을 통해 설비 교체를 최소화하며 최적 운용을 통해 에너지 효율을 높이는 모니터링 기반 커미셔닝에 대해 연구하였다. 건물 에너지 사용에 대한 모델링을 수행하고 이를 기반으로 에너지 사용 데이터와 비교, 효율 저하 감지 기술을 활용하여 운용 최적화를 통한 에너지 사용 절감을 이룬다.

저수지의 시스템 조작은 수자원 계획 또는 관리 측면에서 저수지 설계 뿐 아니라 운영 기준을 마련하기 위해서 필수적이다. 한편 수자원 체계가 확장되고 복잡해짐에 따라 시스템 조작기법 또한 진보적인 방법이 요구된다. 이에 따라 다양한 기법이 도입되어 시스템 조작에 적용되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 국내에서 최대 규모인 한강수계 저수지 계통의 시스템 조작에 최적제어이론인 선형추적 모형을 적용하여 이용 가능성을 평가한다. 이때 한강 수계 저수지 계통은 수력발전 사용수량을 통하여 하류에 용수를 공급함으로써 수도권의 용수공급을 담당하고 있다. 이에 이수측면의 수자원 이용을 극대화하기 위해서 수력발전 최대화에 조작 목적을 두고 용수공급은 제약조건으로 하여 우선적으로 공급하도록 선형추적 모형을 설계하고 최적 제어율의 유도 및 적용을 통하여 저수지 조작을 수행한다. 이때 조작은 화천댐, 소양강댐, 춘천댐, 의암댐, 청평댐, 충주댐, 팔당댐 등 주요 7개 댐을 포함하고 월단위로 21년간을 수행한다. 그리고 조작결과는 수력발전과 용수공급 및 보장수량 측면에서 분석되고 조작 연산 효율성이 검토된다.

It is hard to find an operation case using anti-submarine searching pattern(ASSP) developed by Korean navy since Korean navy has begun submarine searching operation. This paper proposes the method to develop hull mount sonar(HMS) based optimal submarine searching pattern by using genetic algorithm. Developing the efficient ASSP based on theory in near sea environment has been demanded for a long time. Submarine searching operation can be executed by using ma ulti-step and multi-layed method. however, In this paper, we propose only HMS based ASSP generation method considering the ocean environment and submarine searching tactics as a step of first research. The genetic algorithm, known as a global opination method, optimizes the parameters affecting efficiency of submarine searching operation. Finally, we confirm the performance of the proposed ASSP by simulation.
