The distributions of mass flow rate and pressure are major factors to deside the performance of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). These factors are affected by channel configuration of air plate. In this paper. structural analysis is performed to investigate deformation of porous media. Two kind of models are suggest for flow analyses. Deformed porous media and undeformed porous media are considered for air plate model. The Numerical flow analysis results with deformed porous media and undeformed porous media had some discrepancy in pressure distribution. The pressure and velocity in a working condition are numerically calculated to predict the performance of the air plates. Distributions of the parameters in the PEMFC are analyzed numerically under steady-state conditions.

고혈압은 전 세계의 심혈관 및 뇌혈관 질환의 중요한 사망 원인으로서 지속적인 혈압관리가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 급성장하고 있는 모바일 헬스케어 환경에서 지속적으로 혈압 관리를 받을 수 있는 생체정보 교환 서비스 모델로서 HL7 FHIR을 선택하였다. 개발한 HL7 FHIR 프레임워크는 매니저(스마트폰)과 에이전트(혈압계) 간에 블루투스 헬스기기 프로파일과 통하여 IEEE 11073-10407 PHD 프로토콜로 통신하여 혈압정보를 획득한다. 테스트 결과 고혈압 환자의 혈압 모니터링, 측정기록관리, 문서 생성, 측정정보전송을 성공적으로 수행하였다. 실제 임상환경에서는 TCP/IP 프로토콜을 통해 측정정보를 전송할 수 있으므로 모바일 헬스케어에서 지속적인 연구와 활성화가 기대된다.

The configuration of the flow channel on a bipolar plate of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell(PEMFC) for efficient reactant supply has great influence on the performance of the fuel cell. Recent demand for higher energy density fuel cells requires an increase in current density at mid voltage range and a decrease in concentration overvoltage at high current density. Therefore, an interdigitated flow channel where mass transfer rate by convection through a gas diffusion layer is greater than the mass transfer by a diffusion mechanism through a gas diffusion layer was recently proposed. This study attempts to analyze the i-V performance, mass transfer and pressure drop in interdigitated flow channels by developing a fully three dimensional simulation model for PEMFC that can deal with anode and cathode flow together. The results indicate that the trade off between performance and pressure loss should be considered for efficient design of flow channels. Although the performance of the fuel cell with interdigitated flow is better than that with conventional flow channels due to a strong mass transfer rate by convection across a gas diffusion layer, there is also an increase in friction due to the strong convection through the porous diffusion layer accompanied by a larger pressure drop along the flow channel. It was evident that the proper selection of the ratio of channel and rib width under counter flow conditions in the fuel cell with interdigitated flow are necessary to optimize the interdigitated flow field design.

NiFe와 TbCo의 게면에서의 자기 교환 결합을 이용하여 자기 저항 소자에 수평 및 수직 바이어스 자장을 제공할수 있도록 $NiFe/TbCo/Si_3N_4$ 박막을 제조하였다. Tb의 면적비가 36 %이고, 기판 바이어스를 인가하지 않았을때 100~180 Oe의 교환 자장을 얻을 수 있었다. NiFe, TbCo, 그리고 보호막으로 사용되는 $Si_3N_4$ 각층의 두께는 각각 $470\;{\AA},\;2400\;{\AA},\;600\;{\AA}$ 이었다. NiFe를 1000 W의 전력과 2.5 mTorr의 아르곤 압력에 제작한 시편에서 1.45 %의 자기 저항 변화율을 얻을 수 있었다. 미세 소자로 제작된 NiFe의 자기 저항 변화율은 1.31 %로 감소 하였으며, 감자화 자장의 영향으로 박막이 완전히 포화되지 못한 곡선을 보였다. 150 Oe의 교환 자 장을 갖는 박막을 자화 용이 방향과 $36^{\circ}$의 각도로 소자를 제작한 결과 약 85 Oe 정도의 자기 저항 응답 곡선의 천이를 보였으며, 소자의 동작점이 응답의 선형 구간으로 이동하였다. 또한 Barkhausen 잡음이 교환 자장에 의한 수평 바이어스에 의하여 제거되었다.

본 연구는 산성유해가스 제거를 위한 고효율 음이온교환 복합 폼 화학필터를 제조하기 위하여 폴리우레탄(PU) foam에 다른 종류의 PSA를 사용하여 상용이온교환수지를 부착하여 제조, 이의 내수성, 내화학성, 접착신율, 농도와 유속에 따른 HCl과 HF의 흡착특성에 관하여 연구하였다. 그 결과 접착신율은 ATE-701은 900%, AT-4000C는 1,500%, HCA-1000는 2,400%이며, 내수성 및 내화학성평가에서 HCA-1000의 탈리율이 6% 미만으로 우수한 내구성을 가짐을 확인하였다. HCl, HF의 농도와 유속이 증가함에 따라 흡착이 빠르게 일어났으며 유속과 농도에 관계없이 110 min 이후 100% 흡착파과평형이 일어남을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 SEM Morphology 관찰 결과 점착제가 고르게 분산되어 있고 이온교환수지의 다공구조가 유지되었으며, 흡-탈착 공정에서 성능저하가 없는 것으로 보아 내구성이 있음을 확인하였다.

Anion exchange membrane electrolysis is considered a promising next-generation hydrogen production technology that can produce low-cost, clean hydrogen. However, anion exchange membrane electrolysis technology is in its early stages of development and requires intensive research on electrodes, which are a key component of the catalyst-system interface. In this study, we optimized the pressure conditions of the hot-pressing process to manufacture cobalt oxide electrodes for the development of a high uniformity and high adhesion electrode production process for the oxygen evolution reaction. As the pressure increased, the reduction of pores within the electrode and increased densification of catalytic particles led to the formation of a uniform electrode surface. The cobalt oxide electrode optimized for pressure conditions exhibited improved catalytic activity and durability. The optimized electrode was used as the anode in an AEMWE single cell, exhibiting a current density of 1.53 A cm^-2 at a cell voltage of 1.85 V. In a durability test conducted for 100 h at a constant current density of 500 mA cm^-2, it demonstrated excellent durability with a low degradation rate of 15.9 mV kh^-1, maintaining 99% of its initial performance.

For proton exchange membrane fuel cell, it is very important to design the flow channel on separation plate optimally to maximize the current density at same electrochemical reaction surface and reduce the concentration polarization occurred at high current density. In this paper, three dimensional computation model including anode and cathode domain together was developed to examine effects of flow patterns and operation conditions such as humidity and operating temperature on performance of fuel cell. Results show that voltage at counter flow condition is higher than that at coflow condition in parallel and interdigitated flow pattern. And fuel cell with interdigitated flow pattern which has better mass transport by convection flow through gas diffusion layer has higher performance than with parallel flow pattern but its pressure drop is increased such that the trade off between performance and pressure drop should be considered for selection of flow pattern of fuel cell.

Heat generation rate in a telecommunication cabinet increases due to the continued usage of mobile devices. Insufficient removal of heat intensifies the cabinet temperature, resulting in the malfunction of electronic devices. In this study, we assessed both aluminum and plastic heat exchangers used for cooling of the telecommunication cabinet, and compared the results against theoretical predictions. The aluminum heat exchanger was composed of counter flow parallel channels of 4.5 mm pitch, and the plastic heat exchangers were composed of cross flow triangular channels of 2.0 mm pitch. Samples were made by installing two plastic heat exchangers in both series and parallel. Results showed that the heat transfer rate was highest for the series cross flow heat exchanger, and was least for the aluminum heat exchanger. The temperature efficiency of the series cross flow heat exchanger was 59% greater than that of the aluminum heat exchanger, and was 4.3% greater than that of the parallel cross flow heat exchanger. In contrast, the pressure drop of the parallel cross flow heat exchanger was significantly lower than other samples. The heat exchange efficiency was also the largest for the parallel cross flow heat exchanger. The theoretical analysis predicted the temperature efficiency to be within 3.3%, and the pressure drop within 6.1%.

The effects of anode, cathode, and cooling channels for a Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) on flow fields have been investigated numerically. Continuous open-faced fluid flow channels formed in the surface of the bipolar plates traverse the central area of the plate surface in a plurality of passes such as a serpentine manner. The pressure distributions and velocity profiles of the hydrogen, air and water channels on bipolar plates of the PEMFC are analyzed using a two-dimensional simulation. The conservation equations of mass, momentum, and energy in the three-dimensional flow solver are modified to include electro-chemical characteristics of the fuel cell. In our three-dimensional numerical simulations, the operation of electro-chemical in Membrane Electrolyte Assembly (MEA) is assumed to be steady-state, involving multi-species. Supplied gases are consumed by chemical reaction. The distributions of oxygen and hydrogen concentration with constant humidity are calculated. The concentration of hydrogen is the highest at the center region of the active area, while the concentration of oxygen is the highest at the inlet region. The flow and thermal profiles are evaluated to determine the flow patterns of gas supplied and cooling plates for an optimal fuel cell stack design.
