Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion(OTEC) power plants have been examined as a viable option for supplying clean energy. This paper evaluated the thermodynamic performance of the OTEC Power system for the production of electric power and desalinated water. The results show that newly developed fluids such as R32, R125, R143a, and R410A that do not cause stratospheric ozone layer depletion perform as well as R22 and ammonia. Overall cycle efficiency of open cycle is the lowest value of 3.01% because about 10% of the gross power is used for pumping out non-condensable gas. Also, the hybrid cycle is an attempt to combine the best features and avoid the worst features of the open and closed cycles. The overall cycle efficiency of hybrid cycle is 3.44% and the amount of desalinated water is 0.0619 kg/s.

광합성 홍색세균의 light harvesting complex II (LHC II)발현 유전자가 제거된 돌연변이종을 halogen 램프 하에서 거리에 따라 광도를 달리하며 배양하여 wild type과 생산성을 비교한 결과 낮은 광도(34 ${\mu}E/m^2/s$)에서는 wild type가 높은 광도 (376, 118 ${\mu}E/m^2/s$)에서는 mutant가 높은 세포농도를 나타내었다. 특히 118 ${\mu}E/m^2/s$에서 LHC $II^-$ mutant가 56% 높은 세포생산량을 보였다. 이는 세포내 pigment양의 감소로 mutual shading effect가 감소하였기 때문으로 판단되었다.

The experimental study on the effect of axial clearance between the tip of impeller blades and stationary shroud has been performed. The investigated compressor, which is a part of a small auxiliary power unit engine, consists of a curved inlet, a centrifugal impeller, a channel diffuser and a plenum chamber. It was designed for a total pressure ratio of 4.3 and an efficiency of $77\%$ at design speed of 60,000 rpm. The experiments are carried out in an open-loop centrifugal compressor test rig driven by a turbine. For the four different clearance ratios Cr(clearance/impeller tip width) of 6.25, 10.93, 15.60 and 20.30 percent, the overall performance data are obtained at $97\%,\;90\%$ and $80\%$ of the design speed. The results show the overall pressure ratio decrease of $7.7\%$ and the efficiency loss of $8.7\%$ across the variation of clearance ratio near the design speed. It also indicates that the influence of tip clearance became weaker as the flow rate is reduced and the stable operating range is not significantly influenced by the change of clearance ratio.

The main purpose of this study is to identify the factors influencing the implementation performance of ERP system from the investment such as hardware, software and consulting fee. The main goal of this study to analyze of ERP system implementation in various sections depending on the amount of investment and research about the contribution of ERP utilization on overall PCB business activities. Survey questionnaires were distributed via post and fax to PCB (Printed Circuit Board)Company in Korea. The results of this study can be summarized as follow. First, only 43.1% of respondents implemented ERP system at the enterprise level, which shows that ERP system does not completely play its role as a truly integrated system. Second, companies shows higher satisfaction rate with selectively invested on particular sub-modules. Third, the efficiency of ERP system can be maximized by improving efficiency on core areas through selective investments. Also, this can be maximized by performing overall investments on the general environment in addition to the direct investment on ERP. Lastly, 59.26% of respondents reported that the utilization of ERP has highly significant effects on the contribution of business whereas 29.63% respondents reported as significant effects on the business. These shows positive effects of ERP on the contribution of business.

This study proposes a novel zero voltage transition (ZVT) pulse width modulation (PWM) DC-DC interleaved boost converter with an active snubber cell. All the semiconductor devices in the converter turn on and off with soft switching to reduce the switching power losses and improve the overall efficiency. Through the interleaved approach, the current stresses of the main devices and the ripple of the output voltage and input current are reduced. The main switches turn on with ZVT and turn off with zero voltage switching (ZVS). The auxiliary switch turns on with zero current switching (ZCS) and turns off with ZVS. In addition, the snubber cell does not create additional current or voltage stress on the main switches and main diodes. The proposed converter can smoothly achieve soft switching characteristics even under light load conditions. The theoretical analysis and operating stages of the proposed converter are made for the D > 50% and D < 50% modes. Finally, a prototype of the proposed converter is implemented, and the experimental results are given in detail for 500 W and 50 kHz. The overall efficiency of the proposed converter reached 95.5% at nominal output power.

The IEEE 802.11 compliant stations can transmit at multiple transmission rates. Selection of an appropriate transmission rate plays a significant role in determining the overall efficiency of a communication system. The technique which determines the channel state information and accordingly selects an appropriate transmission rate is called rate-adaptation protocol. The IEEE 802.11 standard does not provide standard specification for implementing a rate-adaptation protocol for its multi-rate capable wireless stations. Due to the lack of standard specification, there is a myriad of rate-adaptation protocols, proposed by industry and various research institutes. This paper surveys the existing rate-adaptation schemes, discusses various features which contribute significantly in the process of rate-adaptation, the timing constraints on such schemes, and the performance gains in terms of throughput, delay and energy efficiency; which can be gained by the use of rate-adaptation. The paper also discusses the implication of rate-adaptation schemes on the performance of overall communication and identifies existing research challenges in the design of rate-adaptation schemes.

Concentric evacuated tube solar energy collector has been interested recently since government has driven to install alternative energy systems in new large building. In this paper, testing of the evacuated tube collector is conducted in outdoor during daytime by transient method. The collector thermal efficiencies are plotted in term of $(T_{in}-T_a)/Ic$, where $T_{in}$ is inlet working fluid temperature, $T_a$ is atmospheric temperature and $I_c$ is solar irradiation on the collector surface. The evacuated tube collector efficiency is ranged from 50% to 63% in real outdoor condition. In addition, the total overall heat loss coefficient is found to have an inverse variation to $(T_{in}-T_a)/I_c$ so that the coefficient becomes very high when $(T_{in}-T_a)/I_c$ is small.

The adsorption of inorganic mercury, Hg (II), in aqueous solution has been investigated to evaluate the effectiveness of synthesized gold (Au) nanoparticle-coated silica as sorbent in comparison with activated carbon and Au-coated sand. The synthesis of the Au-coated silica was confirmed by x-ray diffraction (Bragg reflections at $38.2^{\circ}$, $44.4^{\circ}$, $64.6^{\circ}$, and $77.5^{\circ}$) and the Au loading on silica surface was $6.91{\pm}1.14mg/g$. The synthesized Au-coated silica performed an average Hg adsorption efficiency of ~96 (${\pm}2.61$) % with KD value of 9.96 (${\pm}0.32$) L/g. The adsorption kinetics of Hg(II) on to Au-coated silica closely follows a pseudo-second order reaction where it is found out to have an initial adsorption rate of $4.73g/{\mu}g/min/$ and overall rate constant of $4.73{\times}10^{-4}g/{\mu}g/min/$. Au-coated silica particles are effective in removing Hg (II) in aqueous solutions due to their relatively high KD values, rapid adsorption rate, and high overall efficiency that can even decrease mercury levels below the recommended concentrations in drinking water.

쿼드-틸트프롭(QTP) 무인기의 직렬-하이브리드 방식 동력시스템을 설계하고 특성을 분석하였다. 동력시스템은 4.5kW급 로터리엔진-발전기 장치를 기본으로 리튬-배터리를 동력원으로 사용하며, 동력제어기가 비행체가 필요로 하는 전체적인 동력을 제어하고 공급한다. 엔진의 출력은 발전기 구동 및 발전 효율과 배터리의 충전과 방전에 따른 손실을 고려하여 발전기 성능과 매칭된다. 배터리에 저장된 에너지와 통합 제어해서 전체적인 연료소모율을 최소화하도록 엔진-발전기의 정속(Constant Speed) 운용개념이 적용되며, 결과적으로 배터리의 용량과 특성, 그리고 충전과 방전 사이클이 효율 향상에 중요한 요소로 작용할 수 있다.
