The solar vehicle is in the spotlight in the eco-friendly aspect of photovoltaic system using unlimited solar energy. The solar vehicle uses energy of photovoltaic and battery. The solar vehicle uses stored energy in battery when photovoltaic power is lower than consumption power by solar vehicle and if photovoltaic power is higher than consumption power by solar vehicle then photovoltaic power is stored to battery. To improve use efficiency of photovoltaic, the researches about MPPT method to operate maximum power point and interior permanent magnet synchronous motor(IPMSM)drive system using photovoltaic is necessary. This paper proposes MPPT control algorithm for solar vehicle using new fuzzy control(NFC). In this paper, to reduce switching loss, the DC-DC converter is omitted. The NFC controller can be use instead of PO. The NFC controller is performed MPPT control using solar cell voltage and q -axis current of IPMSM. The output of NFC is command q -axis current of IPMSM and this current is operated IPMSM. The response characteristics of algorithm proposed in this paper is compared response characteristics of conventional PO method by PSIM program and validity of this paper prove using this result.

In this paper, we designed a seasonal geothermal storage system and studied the applicability in the alluvial aquifer. We conducted a basic survey to apply this system to greenhouses actually operated in the Geum river basin alluvial aquifer. After choosing a potential area through electrical resistivity survey, the system parameters were set using drilling survey and pumping test result. We installed a system based on the factors, and operated for about 9 months. As a result, high temperature water(injection temperature $30^{\circ}C$) was stored at 22.5 Mcal ($1,609m^3$) for 3 months in cooling operation and 125 Mcal ($16,960m^3$) of low temperature water (injection temperature $7^{\circ}C$) were stored for 6 months in the remaining heating operation.

Two decommissioning projects are carried out at the KAERI (Korean Atomic Energy Research Institute), one for the Korea research reactors, KRR-1 and KRR-2, and another for the uranium conversion plant (UCP). The concept of the management of the wastes from the decommissioning sites was reviewed with a relation of the decommissioning strategies, technologies for the treatment and the decontamination, and the characteristics of waste. All the liquid waste generated from KRR-1 and KRR-2 decommissioning site is evaporated by a solar evaporation facility and all the liquid waste from the UCP is treated together with lagoon sludge waste. The solid wastes from the decommissioning sites are categorized into three groups; not contaminated, restricted releasable and radioactive waste. The not-contaminated waste will be reused and/or disposed at an industrial disposal site, and the releasable waste is stored for the future disposal at the KAERI. The radioactive waste is packed in containers, and will be stored at the decommissioning sites till they are sent to a national repository site. The reduction of the radioactive solid waste is one of the strategies for the decommissioning projects and could be achieved by the repeated decontamination. By the achievement of the minimization strategy, the amount of radioactive waste was reduced and the disposal cost will be reduced, but the cost for manpower, for direct materials and for administration was increased.

A series of experiment was undertaken to pursue the possibility of aflatoxin accumulation in stored grains which were artificially contaminated with A. flavus var. columnaris isolated from deteriorated rice in Korea. In storage of rice grain, aflatoxin formation needed relative humidity over 80%, once accumulated aflatoxin was degraded by other microbial growth maintaining 50% level and the absence of other microoganisms brought about the remarkable accumulation of aflatoxin. The formation of aflatoxin in grains was increasing in the order of soybean, peanut, corn, wheat, barley, foxtail millet, rice, polished wheat, mung bean and great millet and it appears to be affected by the size and oil content of grains.

The potential deep geothermal resources span a wide range of heat sources from the earth, including not only the more easily developed, currently economic hydrothermal resources; but also the earth's deeper, stored thermal energy, which is present anywhere. At shallow depths of 3,000~10,000m, the coincidence of substantial amounts heat in hot rock, fluids that heat up while flowing through the rock and permeability of connected fractures can result in natural hot water reservoirs. Although conventional hydrothermal resources which contain sufficient fluids at high temperatures and geo-pressures are used effectively for both electric and nonelectric applications in the world, they are somewhat limited in their location and ultimate potential for supplying electricity. A large portion of the world's geothermal resource base consists of hot dry rock(HDR) with limited permeability and porosity, an inadquate recharge of fluids and/or insufficient water for heat transport. An alternative known as engineered or enhanced geothermal systems(EGS), to dependence on naturally occurring hydrothermal reservoirs involves human intervention to engineer hydrothermal reservoirs in hot rocks for commercial use. Therefore EGS resources are with enormous potential for primary energy recovery using an engineered heat mining technology, which is designed to extract and utilize the earth's stored inexthermal energy. Because EGS resources have a large potential for the long term, United States focused his effort to provide 100GW of 24-hour-a-day base load electric-generating capacity by 2050.

Thixotropy is a time-dependent shear-thinning phenomenon. We derived a new thixotropic formula which is based on the generalized viscosity formula of Ree and Eyring, $f={\Sigma}\frac{X_i}{{\alpha}_i}sinh^{-1}$ () (Refer to the text concerning the notation.) The following is postulated: (1) thixotropy occurs when small flow units attached to a large flow unit separate from the latter under stress (2) elastic energy(${\omega}$) is stored on the large flow unit during the flow process, and (3) the stored energy contributes to decrease the activation energy for flow. A new thixotropic formula was derived by using these postulations, $f={\frac}{X_0{\beta}_0}{\alpha_0}{\dot{s}}+{\frac}{X_1{\beta}_1}{{\alpha}_1}{\dot{s}}+{\frac}{X_2}{{\alpha_x}}sinh^{-1}$[$({\beta}_0)_2$ exp $(-C_2{\dot{s}}^2/RT){\cdot}{\dot{s}}$] f is the shear stress, and s is the rate of shear. In case of concentrated solutions where the Newtonian flow units have little contribution to the viscosity of the system, the above equation becomes, $f=\frac{X_2}{\alpha_2}sinh^{-1}$[$({\beta}_0)_2$ exp $(-C_2{\dot{s}}^2/RT){\cdot}{\dot{s}}$]. In order to confirm these formulas, we applied to TiO2(anatase and rutile)-water, printing ink and mayonnaise systems. Good agreements between the experiment and theory were observed.

Geothermal energy is the natural heat of the Earth. Enormous amounts of thermal energy are continuously generated by the decay of radioactive isotopes of underground rocks and stored in the Earth's interior. Therefore, geothermal energy is one of the most important sustainable energy resources. Recent trends of geothermal energy exploitation technologies focus on the Earth scientific approach to geothermal heat pump system, enhanced geothermal system, aquifer thermal energy storage, underground thermal energy storage, and fluid/heat flow model ing for geothermal wells. Geothermal heat pump distribution in Korea is still in its starting phase in terms of areal utilization sense, we, however, expect to come up with national supply of over 1,000,000 toe by 2020

The energy recovery efficiency(ERE) of an aquifer thermal energy storage system was calculated using curvilinear coordinate. The results of the calculation were compared with the experimental results, and agreed within 11% of the discrepancy. The variation of ERE was investigated as a function of the underground water natural velocity, the amount of the stored energy, and period of the energy recovery. The slower the natural velocity and shorter the recovery period, the higher ERE was yielded. Also it was found that increase in the amount of energy storage yields higher ERE, and carries out less influential ERE to the natural velocity. Reiterative usage of the aquifer as a thermal storage tends to gradually increase ERE. The result of this study implements that the aquifer thermal energy storage system is suitable for large cooling/heating loads, such as district cooling/heating.

This paper proposes a Big Data system for energy Big Data which is aggregated in real-time from industrial and public sources. The constructed Big Data system is based on Hadoop and the Spark framework is simultaneously applied on Big Data processing, which supports in-memory distributed computing. In the paper, we focus on Big Data, in the form of heat energy for district heating, and deal with methodologies for storing, managing, processing and analyzing aggregated Big Data in real-time while considering properties of energy input and output. At present, the Big Data influx is stored and managed in accordance with the designed relational database schema inside the system and the stored Big Data is processed and analyzed as to set objectives. The paper exemplifies a number of heat demand plants, concerned with district heating, as industrial sources of heat energy Big Data gathered in real-time as well as the proposed system.

Browning and color characteristics of stored mushrooms (Agaricus bisporus)following ionizing irradiation were investigated in connection with quality deterioration. The phenolic compounds of stored mushrooms showed a gradual decreasing tendency, while extractable browning pigments apparently rose from around 3days of storage under the conditions of $9{\pm}1^{\circ}C,\;80{\pm}7%$ RH and packaging with a corrugated paper box wrapped up in PE. ${\gamma}-irradiation$ at 2 to 3 kGy resulted in a significant reduction of their changes. Immediately after treatment, irradiated mushrooms were more discolored, i.e. a lower Hunter L value and higher Hunter a and b values than control. However, the subsequent storage for 15 days resulted in a preventive influence of ionizing energy on mushroom discoloration. This beneficial effect of ionizing energy was somewhat higher in the pilei than in the stipes of mushrooms and was found to increase lineally with increasing doses up to 3 kGy.
