This paper reports on the charge distribution measurements of submicron particles for three different charging mechanisms, which are spray electrification, bipolar ionization and corona discharge process, respectively. The number of elementary charges per particle was investigated by classifying and counting of a discrete mobility class. Charge distribution measurements were performed with NaCl particles generated from a collision atomizer for 0.01, 0.1, 1% NaCl solutions. Experimental results show than charge level of atomized NaCl particles is high and decreases with increasing the dissolved ion concentration. The charge level of the atomized NaCl particles can be reduced to that o Boltzmann equilibrium conditions by the bipolar ionization(Po(sup)210 bipolar ionizer). The charge level on NaCl particles passing through the corona discharge reactor is much higher than those of atomized or bipolar ionized NaCl particles. The evaluation of these measurements results in charge distribution of the submicron particles.

As Social Overhead Capital(SOC) has been expanded, the highway road construction has been accelerated and city road system has been more complicated. So, long road tunnels have been increased and traffic flow rate also has been raised. Accordingly, the exhausting gas of vehicle cars seriously deteriorates the tunnel inside air quality and driving view. In order to improve tunnel inside air quality, it is needed to introduce a compulsory ventilation system as well as natural ventilation mechanism. The former, that is, a special compulsory ventilation facility is very useful and helpful to prevent a tunnel of being contaminated by traffic in most case. In the case of obtaining clearer and longer driving view, the ventilation systems have to be considered in order to remove floating contaminants or exhaust gas from engines. In this paper, discharge electrode design technology will be discussed.

This work introduces a fault diagnosis method for transformer based on self-powered radio frequency identification (RFID) sensor tag and improved Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT). Consisted by RFID tag chip, power management circuit, MCU and accelerometer, the developed RFID sensor tag is used to acquire and wirelessly transmit the vibration signal. A customized power management including solar panel, low dropout (LDO) voltage regulator, supercapacitor and corresponding charging circuit is presented to guarantee constant DC power for the sensor tag. An improved band restricted empirical mode decomposition (BREMD) which is optimized by quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization (QPSO) algorithm is proposed to deal with the raw vibration signal. Compared with traditional methods, this improved BREMD method shows great superiority in reducing mode aliasing. Then, a promising fault diagnosis approach on the basis of Hilbert marginal spectrum variations is brought up. The measured results show that the presented power management circuit can generate 2.5V DC voltage for the rest of the sensor tag. The developed sensor tag can achieve a reliable communication distance of 17.8m in the test environment. Furthermore, the measurement results indicate the promising performance of fault diagnosis for transformer.

The purpose of the present work is to investigate the removal characteristics of positively charged filters for capturing negatively charged particles such as bacteria and virus in water. In order to reduce the pressure drop and increase the filtration efficiency, the filter media, modified by charge modifier having positive functional groups, is developed and evaluated. Improved liquid filters have been developed with the modified surface charge to capture and adsorb particles by electrokinetic interaction between the filter surface and particles contained in an aqueous liquid. The positively charged filter media is composed of glass fiber, cellulose and poly-ethylenimine resin for positively charging with the variation of volume ratio. The zeta potential value of the positively charged filter is +37.92 mV at the glass fiber and cellulose content ratio of 50 : 50 with resin content of 100%, while that of the PSL test particle is -23.5 mV at pH 7. The removal efficiency of the electro-positively charged filter is 98% for PSL particles of 0.11 ${\mu}m$, while that of the negatively charged filter is 7%. The positively charged filter media showed the potential to be an effective method for removing fine particles from the contaminated water for liquid filtration.

Recently, with the expanding market for electronic devices and electric vehicles, secondary battery usage has been on the rise. Lithium-ion batteries are particularly popular due to their fast charging times and lightweight nature compared to other types of batteries. A secondary battery consists of four components: anode, cathode, electrolyte, and separator. Generally, the positive and negative electrode materials of secondary batteries are composed of an active material, a binder, and a conductive material. Acetylene Black (AB) is utilized to enhance conductivity between active material particles or metal dust collectors, preventing the binder from acting as an insulator. However, when recycling waste batteries that have been subject to high usage, there is a risk of fire and explosion accidents, as accurately identifying the characteristics of Acetylene Black dust proves to be challenging. In this study, the lower explosion limit for Acetylene Black dust with an average particle size of 0.042 ㎛ was determined to be 153.64 mg/L using a Hartmann-type dust explosion device. Notably, the dust did not explode at values below 168 mg, rendering the lower explosion limit calculation unfeasible. Analysis of explosion delay times with varying electrode gaps revealed the shortest delay time at 3 mm, with a noticeable increase in delay times for gaps of 4 mm or greater. The findings offer fundamental data for fire and explosion prevention measures in Acetylene Black waste recycling processes via a predictive model for lower explosion limits and ignition delay time.

배터리는 최근 여러 분야에서 중요한 에너지원 역할을 하고 있는데, 사용 중 충방전을 거듭하면 용량이 점차 저하되며 초기 대비 80% 이하로 떨어지면 고장으로 간주되므로, 이를 예측하기 위한 수명 예측 기법이 활발히 개발되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 사용중인 배터리에 대해 충전곡선 기울기를 이용하여 배터리의 용량을 평가하고 이를 바탕으로 잔존수명을 예측하는 새로운 방법을 제안하였다. 이 과정에서 발생하는 여러 불확실성을 고려하기 위해 베이지안 접근법에 기반한 파티클 필터 방법을 활용하였고 그 결과 잔존수명을 확률분포로 구하였다. 개발된 방법을 미국 NASA Ames 연구소와 본 연구실에서 직접 수행한 배터리 충방전 시험 데이터에 대해 각각 적용한 결과 충전곡선 기울기가 용량 열화를 잘 나타내며 파티클 필터로 예측된 잔존수명 신뢰구간은 실제 수명을 잘 포함함을 확인할 수 있었다.

We developed non-metallic electrodes that can replace metallic electrodes of the electrostatic precipitator(ESP) for the purpose of light weight, corrosion resistance, cost reduction. We manufactured three types of collection electrodes made of stainless steel (M), Carbon ink coating layer-Plastic sheet-Carbon ink coating layer (CPC), and Plastic sheet-Carbon ink coating layer-Plastic sheet (PCP). We studied the collection efficiency of a two-stage ESP using oil mist particles with and without collection stage by changing the flow rate, the material of collection electrode, and the applied voltage of the pre-charger module and the collection module. Here we measured concentrations of particles at diameters of 0.45 ㎛ (CMD; count median diameter) and 3.0 ㎛ (MMD : mass median diameter), as well as PM_2.5 and PM₁₀. As a result of the experiment, two-stage ESP had 22~25% higher collection efficiency in PM_2.5 than one-stage ESP at the same applied voltage. The difference in collection efficiency by varying the materials of collection electrodes was less than 5%. The weight of the non-metallic electrode was only one eighth the weight of the metal electrode. CPC electrode had a thickness of 0.27 mm, which was 1.5 times thinner than a thickness of PCP electrode, so when the flow rate increased, the CPC electrodes couldn't be kept at equal intervals due to the fluttering unlike PCP electrodes. In addition, the PCP-CPC collection module of the present experiment followed the theoretical efficiency based on Deutsch equation and Cochet's charging theory.

매우 좋은 에너지 저장장치인 리튬이차전지의 안전성은 전기화학반응이 일어나는 "양극/분리막(전해질)/음극"의 계에서 리튬이온전지의 분리막의 물리적 충격, 고온에 따른 손상에 기인하는 바가 크며, 특히, 폭발사고에서 분리막 손상에 의한 내부단락이 큰 영향을 끼친다. 고분자로 구성된 분리막의 열 안정성을 높이기 위해 세라믹이 얇게 코팅된 세라믹코팅 분리막이 최근 사용되고 있다. 폴리에틸렌계 분리막 위에 다양한 크기(IL = 488.5 nm, I = 538.7 nm, S = 810.3 nm, D = 1533.3 nm)의 $Al_2O_3$ 입자와 styrene-butadiene rubber(SBR) / carboxymethyl cellulose(CMC) 바인더를 섞어 만든 슬러리를 코팅하여 열 안정성을 측정한 후, 이를 분리막으로 하는 삼성분계 양극과 리튬메탈 음극의 코인 셀을 제작하여, 전기화학적 특성 변화를 관찰하였다.

본 연구는 실리카퓸 사용 여부로 서로 다른 광물질 혼화재를 사용하는 초고강도 모르타르 및 콘크리트에 CASB 화합 고성능감수제를 적용함으로서 CASB의 효과를 분석하고자 실시한 것으로, 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 굳지않은 모르타르 및 콘크리트의 특성으로 모르타르의 미니 슬럼프 플로 및 콘크리트의 슬럼프 플로는 2성분계 배합의 경우에는 B2-CASB가 B2-PC 보다 CASB 혼입에 의한 점성증가에 기인하여 작게 나타났지만, 3성분계인 배합의 경우에는 B3-CASB가 B3-PC 보다 CASB의 입도분포 개선 효과로 구속수가 감소한 것에 기인하여 크게 나타났다. 공기량은 콘크리트 보다 특히, 모르타르의 경우 2성분계 보다 3성분계 결합재에서 PC보다 CASB에서 결합재간 공극 충전 효과에 기인하여 감소하는 경향이었다. 단, 단위용적질량은 공기량과 반비례의 경향으로 나타났다. 경화 모르타르 및 콘크리트의 특성으로 압축강도는 2성분계 보다 3성분계 결합재에서, PC보다 CASB에서 높게 나타났는데, 이는 광물질 혼화재인 SF의 포졸란 반응에 의해 생성된 규산칼슘수화물로 조직이 치밀해진 것과 CASB의 모세관 공극 충전 효과에 기인한 결과로 분석된다. 이상을 종합하면 나노물질인 CASB를 고성능감수제와 화합하여 사용할 경우 실리카퓸 사용 3성분계 초고강도 모르타르 및 콘크리트의 유동성 및 강도 측면에서 품질향상이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

기존 LiCoO₂의 고전압 사용의 제약에 따른 용량적 한계와 코발트 원료의 높은 가격을 해결하기 위하여 high-Nickel에 대한 개발이 활발히 진행되고 있지만 Ni 함량의 증가에 따른 구조적 안정성의 저하에 의한 전지 특성의 저하는 상용화를 지연시키는 중요한 원인이 되고 있다. 이에 Ni-rich 삼성분계 양극소재 LiNi_0.6Co_0.2Mn_0.2O₂의 고안정성을 높이고자 전구체에 균일한 이종원소 Ti를 치환을 위해서 나노크기의 TiO₂ 서스펜젼 형태 소스를 사용하여 전구체 Ni_0.6Co_0.2Mn_0.2-x(OH)₂/xTiO₂를 제조하였다. Li₂CO₃와 혼합하고, 열처리 후 양극활물질 LiNi_0.6Co_0.2Mn_0.2-xTi_xO₂ 합성하여 Ti 함량에 따른 물리적 특성을 비교하였다. Field Emission Scanning electron Microscope(FE-SEM) 및 Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS) mapping 분석을 통해 Ti 치환된 구형의 전구체와 입자 크기 측정을 통해 균일한 입자크기를 가지는 양극 활물질 제조를 확인하였고, 내부치밀도와 강도가 증가함을 확인 하고, X-ray Diffractometry (XRD) 구조 분석과 Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) 정량분석을 통해 Ti 치환된 양극활물질 제조 및 고온, 고전압에서 충·방전을 지속하더라도 효과적으로 용량이 유지됨을 확인하였다.
