Purpose: Sensitivity analysis offers a good guideline for designing energy conscious buildings, which is fitted to a specific building configuration. Sensitivity analysis is, however, still too expensive to be a part of regular design process. The One-at-a-time (OAT) is the most common and simplest sensitivity analysis method. This study aims to propose a reasonable ground that the OAT can be an alternative method for the variance-based method in some early design scenarios, while the variance-based method is known adequate for dealing with nonlinear response and the effect of interactions between input variables, which are most cases in building energy simulations. Method: A test model representing the early design phase is built in the DOE2 energy simulations. Then sensitivity ranks between the OAT and the Variance-based methods are compared at three U.S. sites. Result: Parameters in the upper rank by the OAT do not much differ from those by the Main effect index. Considering design practices that designers would chose the most energy saving design option first, this rank similarity between two methods seems to be acceptable in the early design phase.

A large amount of radioactive material was released from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) in 2011 and dispersed into the environment. Though seven years have passed since the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident, some parts of Japan are still under the influence of radionuclide contamination, especially Fukushima Prefecture and prefectures neighboring Fukushima Prefecture. The long-term effective doses and the contributions of each exposure pathway (5 exposure pathways) and radionuclide ($^{131}I$, $^{134}Cs$, and $^{137}Cs$) were evaluated for people living in the regions of Fukushima and neighboring prefectures in Japan using a developed dose assessment code system with Japanese specific input data. The results estimated in this study were compared with data from previously published reports. Groundshine and ingestion were predicted to contribute most significantly to the total long-term dose for all regions. The contributions of each exposure pathway and radionuclide show different patterns for certain regions of Japan.

The objective of this study was to derive derived concentration guideline levels (DCGLs) reflecting the site-specific characteristics of KRR-1&2. A total of 7 nuclides (H-3, C-14, Co-60, Sr-90, Cs-137, Eu-152, and Eu-154) were selected for DCGLs derivation. Radiation dose at the sites was evaluated with RESRAD-ONSITE program. The dose contribution due to direct external exposure was the highest during the entire evaluation period. Ingestion had the second effect. The DCGLs of Co-60 was derived to be 0.051 Bq/g, and DCGLs of Cs-137 was 0.193 Bq/g. The DCGLs of H-3 showed the highest value of 129 Bq/g. The ratio of DCGLs derived by applying site-specific values and default values ranged from 0.27 to 19.6. For six nuclides excluding H-3, KRR-1&2 sites and the overseas NPP sites showed similar DCGLs. H-3 showed large differences in DCGLs from this study and overseas NPPs. The large difference resulted from input parameter values applied to the sites. In conclusion, it is critical to apply site-specific parameter values reflecting the site characteristics to derive DCGLs for decommissioned site clearance. The result of this study can be used as a reference for nuclide selection and DCGLs derivation reflecting the site characteristics when decommissioning nuclear facilities, including nuclear power plants in Korea.

A train performance simulation (TPS) software is a computer program that simulates the operation of a train system over a specified railway route and it is widely used in railroad operation and research applications. Numerical and graphical results from the simulation software, which is developed in this study, provide information on such performance variables as travel time. running speed, energy consumption at a specific time interval and in overall service time as the train moves along the route. Three types of input data are required for a computer simulation: track information, train information, and running conditions. The simulation of train performance starts with several simple mathematical models including train configuration. traction efforts, running resistance. and braking requirements. Based on the basic specifications of Korean High Speed Railway, System. this study, puts a focus on the estimation and assessment of train performance comparing. the specific train configurations of KEST20/11. CPLE20/10. PROP20/10, which are proposed from the previous G7 projects.

로드헤더에 미치는 변수의 영향력을 분석하기 위해 픽커터 절삭시험 관련 참고문헌들을 조사하였고, 수록된 데이터들을 수집하였다. 입력 인자는 일축압축강도, 절삭 깊이, 절삭 간격, 받음각, 비틀림각, 출력 인자는 비에너지, 절삭력, 수직력으로 결정했다. 입력 인자와 출력 인자로 분류 후 실험계획법을 작성하였고 분산분석을 이용해 변수들에 대한 기여도를 조사하였다. 그 결과, 절삭력과 비에너지에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 요인은 일축압축강도와 절삭 간격으로 분석되었다.

태양광 발전은 일사량만 있으면 전기에너지를 얻을 수 있기 때문에, 새로운 에너지 공급원으로 용도가 급증하고 있다. 본 논문은 실제 태양광 발전 시스템의 컨버터 출력을 이용하여 장단기 출력 예측을 하였다. 예측 알고리즘은 다중선형회귀와 머신러닝의 지도학습 중 분류모델인 서포트 벡터 머신 그리고 DNN과 LSTM 등 딥러닝을 이용하였다. 또한 기상요소의 입출력 구조에 따라 3개의 모델을 이용하였다. 장기 예측은 월별, 계절별, 연도별 예측을 하였으며, 단기 예측은 7일간의 예측을 하였다. 결과로서 RMSE 측도에 의한 예측 오차로 비교해 본 결과 다중선형회귀와 SVM 보다는 딥러닝 네트워크가 예측 정확도 측면에서 더 우수하였다. 또한, DNN 보다 시계열 예측에 우수한 모델인 LSTM이 예측 정확도 측면에서 우수하였다. 입출력 구조에 따른 실험 결과는 모델 1보다 모델 2가 오차가 적었으며, 모델 2보다는 모델 3이 오차가 적었다.

옥수수가루에 건조유제품을 첨가하여 탄산가스의 주입에 의해 반죽의 온도 $100^{\circ}C$ 이하에서 팽화시킨 몇 가지 제품의 물리적 성질과 기계적 에너지 투입량을 분석하였다. 첨가된 유제품은 전지분유, 유청단백질 농축물, 탈지분유, 카제인 나트륨이며, 첨가량은 옥수수가루의 무게비로 10%와 20%를 각각 첨가시켰다. 압출성형기 바렐로 주입되는 가스압력을 0.7 MPa과 1.4 MPa로 조절하여 옥수수가루를 팽화시켰다. 시스템변수인 비기계적 에너지 투입량은 지방의 함량이 높은 전지분유의 첨가량이 증가할수록 감소하였다. 또한 카제인 나트륨의 첨가에 의한 비기계적 에너지의 투입량의 감소도 적었다. 압출성형물의 밀도는 주입압력 0.7 MPa까지는 점차적으로 감소하다가 그 이상의 압력에서는 증가하였다. 가스주입압력 0.7 MPa에서 유제품의 함량이 0, 10, 20%로 증가할수록 밀도는 증가하는 경향을 보였으며, 카제인 나트륨을 첨가했을 때 밀도가 증가하는 정도가 가장 낮았다. 가스주입압력이 0.7 MPa까지 팽화율은 증가하다가 그 이상의 주입압력에서는 감소했지만, 비길이는 계속 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 수분흡착지수는 유제품의 첨가에 의해 감소하는 경향을 나타내었고, 반면에 수분용해지수는 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 본 압출성형시스템을 이용한 유제품을 첨가한 옥수수가루 압출성형물 제조시 최적 가스주입압력은 0.7 MPa이였으며, 전지분유의 첨가는 제한인자가 되었으나, 카제인 나트륨의 첨가에 의하여 유제품의 첨가량을 높일 수 있었다.

The paper presents an electrical model of a grid-connected wind energy conversion system (WECS) with a variable speed drive, a fixed pitch angle, a synchronous generator as a wind generator and AC-DC-AC conversion scheme for simulating dynamic behaviors and performance responding to varying wind speed input. The electric output of the WECS is controlled by the AC-DC-AC conversion scheme, the objective of which is to capture the maximum active power under varying wind conditions and to keep the voltage of WECS terminal bus at a specific level. Aerodynamic models are used to incorporate the power characteristics to wind speed. The modeling and simulation of the WECS are realized on PSCAD/EMTDC environment.

In order to reduce harmful substances such as particulates and nitric oxides emitted from diesel engine, man kinds of methodology like high pressure spray of diesel fuel oil, exhaust gas recirculation, emulsified fuel usage and dual fuelling have been studied. Dual fuelling of a diesel engine with hydrogen which is well-known as the clean fuel and has excellent combustibility is expected to be effective in reducing harmful substances from diesel engine. This experimental study was conducted to investigate the effect of premixed hydrogen with intake air on the performance and particulate emission characteristics using a single cylinder, prechamber type diesel engine. As a result, it was clarified that a hydrogen-premixed diesel engine can be operated in the state of lower particulate emission and slightly aggravated fuel economy, compared with the conventional diesel engine.

As a preliminary study of cost estimates for nuclear hydrogen systems, the hydrogen production costs of the nuclear energy sources benchmarking GT-MHR are estimated in the necessary input data on a Korean specific basis. G4-ECONS developed by EMWG of GIF in 2008 was appropriately modified to calculate the cost for hydrogen production of SI process with VHTR as a thermal energy source rather than the LUEC. 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.
