The large amount of energy required for successful crop production is the main challenge in greenhouse cropping systems. As a response to this challenge a comprehensive evaluation of greenhouse energy consumption was carried out in two structurally similar single-span greenhouses with different thermal curtain positions, with particular attention to energy productivity, specific energy, net energy, and energy ratio. The greenhouses are used for strawberry production. In the R-greenhouse (RGH), the thermal curtain hanged directly at the roof ridge, whereas in the Q-greenhouse (QGH), the thermal curtain was placed 5° from an imaginary vertical axis, from the middle of the roof ridge downwards to the north side of the greenhouse roof. The relevant data were recorded using standard methods. The results indicated that the energy expended in the RGH and QGH systems was 2,186.48 and 2,189.26 MJ/m², respectively. Electricity and nitrogen fertilizer contributed the highest energy input in both greenhouses and in all seasons. The output energy was 3.12 and 3.82 MJ/m², respectively, in RGH and QGH in season I and 4.40 and 4.87 MJ/m² in season II. In terms of energy expended, there was no significant difference between the two greenhouses, nor between the two seasons. These results indicate that greenhouses of the size used in this investigation are not viable in terms of energy productivity, energy-use efficiency, and subsequent economic performance. However, further studies should be conducted to scale-up the information obtained from this investigation.

In this paper, the integrated design method of suction muffler in compressor was studied. There are three things to consider when designing this. First, the transmission loss was maximized to consider the noise reduction. Second, dissipation energy of fluid flow was minimized for energy efficiency. Finally, acoustical resonance frequency of suction muffler was controlled because energy efficiency can be increased by supercharging of refrigerant. Therefore, suction muffler was designed to have the specific resonance frequency. The input impedance was used for designing target acoustical resonance frequency. Topology optimization was used for optimization method.

용접에서 발생하는 열응력 및 잔류응력을 해석하기 위한 유한요소용 모델을 개발하였다. 여러 가 지 변수의 연구를 통하여 Ramp heat input function과 Lumped모델을 제시하였다. 용접부에 열입 력을 점차적으로 주기 위하여 Ramp heat input을 이용하였으며 Ramp input을 통하여 이차원 모 델에서의 이동열원의 영향을 고려하였고 실험치와 비교에서 최적 ramp시간을 결정하였다. 다층용 접에서는 용접 pass 에 비례하여 계산시간이 증가한다. 따라서 후판용접의 잔류응력계산에는 막 대한 계산시간이 필요하며 이를 줄이기 위하여 Lumped 모델을 개발하였다. 이 Lumped모델에서 는 각 용접층에 들어있는 용접 pass들을 하나의 lumped pass으로 이용하였으며 각 pass를 따로 계산한 모델 및 시험치와의 비교를 통하여 최적 lumped technique을 제시하였다. *****Finite element models were developed for thermal and residual stress analysis for the specific welding problems. They were used to evaluate the effectiveness of the various welding heat input models, such as ramp heat input function and lumped pass models. Through the parametric studies, thermal-mechanical modeling sensitivity to the ramp function and lumping techniques was determined by comparing the predicted results with experimental data. The kinetics for residual stress formation during welding can be developed by iteration of various proposed mechanisms in the parametric study. A ramp heat input function was developed to gradually apply the heat flux with variable amplitude to the model. This model was used to avoid numerical convergence problems due to an instantaneous increase in temperature near the fusion zone. Additionally, it enables the model to include the effect of a moving arc in a two-dimensional plane. The ramp function takes into account the variation in the out of plane energy flow in a 2-D model as the arc approaches, travels across, and departs from each plane under investigation. A lumped pass model was developed to reduce the computation cost in the analysis of multipass welds. Several weld passes were assumed as one lumped pass in this model. Recommendations were provided about ramp lumping techniques and the optimum number of weld passes that can be combined into a single thermal input.

Wave Energy is a derivative of the solar energy input to the earth, which is accumulated on open water surfaces by the action of the winds Waves are disturbances in the water surface. This paper is interested primarily in progressive waves, which carry energy from one place to another Waves are irregular in size and frequency. Moreover the surface of the sea is one of the most hostile environments for engineering structures and materials. The idea of harnessing the tremendous power of the ocean's waves is not new. Hundreds of wave energy conversion techniques have been suggested over the last two centuries. Although many WECS (Wave Energy Conversion Systems) have been invented, only a few systems have been tested and evaluated. This paper describes the characteristic of WES (Wave Energy System) in terms of, devices, resource and potential, etc.. Finally, this paper provides a summary of general and specific conclusions and recommendations concerning WECS potential in Korea.

A triboelectric generator uses the principles of static electrification and electrostatic induction to convert mechanical energy into useful electrical energy. In this work we study a single degree of freedom (SDOF) vibration type triboelectric generator that is initiated by a vibrating source at its base. The system is modeled in Abaqus and the design parameters are systematically explored by their effect on the output. The relationships between the parameters: input force, input frequency, mass, spring stiffness and gap between the plates, are analyzed. Finally, based on initial experiments, and simulation results, a design methodology is formulated. The methodology will provide guidance for application specific design of reliable and effective vibration type triboelectric generators.

This study describes energy and exergy analysis of the Maeeum-Ri Geothermal District Heating System(MGDHS) of Ganghwa Island, Incheon, Korea. Design data are used to assess the performance of the geothermal district heating system. Geothermal resources of MGDHS are found to be low quality with specific exergy index of 0.029. Exergy losses occur in the pumps and heat exchangers as well as in the geothermal Quid and direct discharge. As a result, the total exergy losses accounts for 5.2% in pumps, 47% in the discharge, and 3.3% in heat exchanger based on the total exergy input to the entire MGDHS. The overall energy and exergy efficiencies of the system are found to be 28.8% and 44.5%, respectively.

In this work, the hydrogen production costs of the nuclear energy sources are estimated in the necessary input data on a Korean specific basis. G4-ECONS was appropriately modified to calculate the cost for hydrogen production of HTE process with Very High Temperature nuclear Reactor (VHTR) as a thermal energy source rather than the LUEC (Levelized Unit Electricity Cost). The general ground rules and assumptions follow G4-ECONS. Through a preliminary study of cost estimates, we wished to evaluate the economic potential for hydrogen produced from nuclear energy, and, in addition, to promptly estimate the hydrogen production costs for an updated input data for capital costs. The estimated costs presented in this paper show that hydrogen production by the VHTR could be competitive with current techniques of hydrogen production from fossil fuels if $CO_2$ capture and sequestration is required. Nuclear production of hydrogen would allow large-scale production of hydrogen at economic prices while avoiding the release of $CO_2$. Nuclear production of hydrogen could thus become the enabling technology for the hydrogen economy. The major factors that would affect the cost of hydrogen were also discussed.

사불화탄소($CF_4$)는 반도체 제조공정에서 에칭과 반응기 세척에서 사용되어온 가스이다. $CF_4$는 적외선을 강하게 흡수하고 대기 중 잔류시간이 길어서 지구온난화에 영향을 미치기 때문에 고효율의 분해가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 플라즈마와 워터젯을 결합하여 워터젯 글라이딩 아크 플라즈마 시스템을 개발하고, 이를 이용하여 $CF_4$를 고효율로 분해할 수 있도록 방전영역을 증가시키고 다량의 OH 라디칼을 생성시킬 수 있는 최적의 조업 조건을 결정하였다. 공정 실험 변수로는 워터젯 주입량, $CF_4$ 초기 농도, 전체 가스량과 주입에너지량(SEI : Specific energy input)을 선정하였다. 변수실험을 통하여 워터젯 주입량이 25.5 mL/min, $CF_4$ 초기 농도 2.2%, 전체 가스량 9.2 L/min, SEI 7.2 kJ/L일 때 $CF_4$ 분해율은 최고 97%까지 도달하였다.
