Efficiency of Multi D.O.F spherical motor is one of the important performance indicators. So Through the reduction of eddy current loss on how to improve the efficiency were studied. Stator iron core's material with high permeability and resistivity of material using the eddy current loss was reduced. However, it was the disadvantages of production and economic. For these reasons, prevent eddy current loss of the iron core of multi D.O.F spherical motor as a viable alternative to motor using rotor with double-air gap.

The Former High Efficiency Inverter(the power restoration process) system process has advantage which is the energy reduction rather than the Former Inverter(the resistence damping process), However, under repair and remodeling, the power facilities capacity is not easy to increase that the former High Efficiency Inverter needs to increase the Power Facilities Capacity of 20~30% than the Inverter(the resistence damping process) so Therefore we are going to suggest the system which is not going to make an increase the power facilities capacity and is applicable the High Efficiency Inverter.

The preconditioned conjugate gradient method is an efficient iterative solution scheme for large size finite element problems. As preconditioning method, we choose an incomplete Cholesky factorization which has efficiency and easiness in implementation in this paper. The incomplete Cholesky factorization mettled sometimes leads to breakdown of the computational procedure that means pivots in the matrix become minus during factorization. So, it is inevitable that a reduction process fur stabilizing and this process will guarantee robustness of the algorithm at the cost of a little computation. Recently incomplete factorization that enhances robustness through increasing diagonal dominancy instead of reduction process has been developed. This method has better efficiency for the problem that has rotational degree of freedom but is sensitive to parameters and the breakdown can be occurred occasionally. Therefore, this paper presents new method that guarantees robustness for this method. Numerical experiment shows that the present method guarantees robustness without further efficiency loss.

This paper presents a method about the efficiency analysis and the harmonic reduction of single phase NPC multi-level inverter with LC-trap filter and LCR output filter. The proposed LC-trap filter is comprised of a conventional LC output filter, by using LC-trap filter the need for high damping resistor and low LC cut-off frequency is eliminated. Also, low damping resistor is increased the efficiency of the output filter. Experimental verification of the proposed circuit is provided with single phase NPC multilevel inverter system and DSP controller.

The use of nuclear reactors is a large studied possible solution for thermochemical water splitting cycles. Nevertheless, there are several problems that have to be solved. One of them is to increase the efficiency of the cycles. Hence, in this paper, a thermal energy optimization of a Sulfur-Iodine nuclear hydrogen production cycle was performed by means a heuristic method with the aim of minimizing the energy targets of the heat exchanger network at different minimum temperature differences. With this method, four different heat exchanger networks are proposed. A reduction of the energy requirements for cooling ranges between 58.9-59.8% and 52.6-53.3% heating, compared to the reference design with no heat exchanger network. With this reduction, the thermal efficiency of the cycle increased in about 10% in average compared to the reference efficiency. This improves the use of thermal energy of the cycle.

Particulate infectious sources, including infectious viruses, can float in the air, causing airborne infections. To prevent indoor airborne infection, dilution control by ventilation and indoor air cleaners are frequently used. In this study, the risk of airborne infection by the operation of these two techniques was evaluated. In case of dilution control by ventilation, a high efficiency air filter was embedded at the inlet of supply air. In this study, infectious source reduction devices such as indoor air cleaner include all kinds of mechanical-filters, UV-photo catalysts and air ionizers through which air flow is forced by fans. Two mathematical models for influenza virus were applied in an infant care room where infants and young children are active, and the risk reduction efficiency was compared. As a result, in the case of individually operating the ventilator or the infectious source reduction device, the airborne infection risk reduction efficiencies were 55.2~61.2% and 53.8~59.9%, respectively. When both facilities were operated, it was found that the risk of airborne infection was reduced about 72.2~76.8%. Therefore, simultaneous operation of ventilation equipment and infectious source reduction device is the most effective method for safe environment that minimizes the risk of airborne infection of respiratory infectious diseases. In the case of a space where sufficient ventilation operation is difficult, it was found that the operation of an infectious source reduction device is important to prevent the spread of infectious diseases. This study is meaningful in that it provides an academic basis for strategies for preventing airborne infection of respiratory infectious diseases.

In foreign countries, high-efficiency electric machineries have been developed in view of cost reduction, environmental issues, energy conservation etc. Especially they focus on developing energy conservation measures and demand-side management. Thus, patent application and secure of patent claims are on the rise as important issues in this field. In this paper, we analyzed patent application trends about inverters, ac/dc converters, reactive power control equipments, high-efficiency transformers and electric ballasts among high-efficiency electric machineries. First, we analyzed general technology trends, and constructed patent technology data. Second, we graphed patent application trends in terms of application years, assignees and nations.

This work investigated the size and shape effect of ${\gamma}$-alumina-supported metal oxides on the hydrocarbon selective catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxides. Several metal oxides including Ag, Cu and Ru were used as the catalysts, and n-heptane as the reducing agent. For the Ag/${\gamma}$-alumina catalyst, the $NO_x$ reduction efficiency in the range of $250{\sim}400^{\circ}C$ increased as the size of Ag decreased (20 nm>50 nm>80 nm). The shape effect of metal oxides on the $NO_x$ reduction was examined with spherical- and wire-shape nanoparticles. Under identical condition, higher catalytic activity for $NO_x$ reduction was observed with Ag and Cu wires than with the spheres, while spherical- and wire-shape Ru exhibited similar $NO_x$ reduction efficiency to each other. Among the metal oxides examined, the best catalytic activity for $NO_x$ reduction was obtained with Ag wire, showing almost complete $NO_x$ removal at a temperature of $300^{\circ}C$. For Cu and Ru catalysts, considerable amount of NO was oxidized to $NO_2$, rather than reduced to $N_2$, leading to lower $NO_x$ reduction efficiency.

In this paper, an efficiency grade standard for imaging equipments using electrophotograph printing such as a printer, copier, fax, and MFD (Multi Function Device) is studied. By emphasizing domestic standby power reduction program's problem, and proposing the necessity of efficiency management, the efficiency standard is developed by reliable data registered in domestic standby power reducing program. To find an efficiency indication for grade, correlation analysis is used and as a result, printing speed has the biggest correlation coefficient. By applying the efficiency indication for grade, the proposed certification standard is established in 1st to 5th level products and super-high-efficiency product (energy frontier) which is better than 1st to 5th level products. If these efficiency standards are chosen by government policies, it is expected to save 65 billion won reduction of energy cost per year.
