A new model about output power prediction of PV module with various tilted angles and cell to cell distances has been proposed in this paper. Light intensity arrived on a solar cell could be changed by characteristics of PV module materials. Refractive indices, thickness and absorption coefficients of glass, EVA, solar cell and Backsheet are used to predict output. Also, the incident angle of light is changed 0 to 90[$^{\circ}$] and cell to cell distances are 5, 10 15[mm]. Two types of light incident on a solar cell are considered which are direct to a solar cell and reflected from Backsheet. The intensity of the incident light directly into the solar cell is reduced through glass and EVA about 17.5[%] in theoretical way. It has an error of 2.26[%] compared with experimental result. The results for compare theoretical with experimental data is validated within the error of 6.3[%]. This paper would be a research material to predict output power when the PV module is installed outdoor or a building.

In order to investigate the characteristics of unsteady flow in a mixed flow pump guide vane under the small flow conditions, several indicator points in a mixed flow pump guide vane was set, the three-dimensional unsteady turbulence numerical value of the mixed flow pump which is in the whole flow field will be calculated by means of the large eddy simulation (LES), sub-grid scale model and sliding mesh technology. The experimental results suggest that the large eddy simulation can estimate the positive slope characteristic of head & capacity curve. And the calculation results show that the pressure fluctuation coefficients of the middle section in guide vane inlet will decrease firstly and then increase. In guide vane outlet, the pressure fluctuation coefficients of section will be approximately axially symmetrical distribution. The pressure fluctuation minimum of section in guide vane inlet is above the middle location of the guide vane suction surface, and the pressure fluctuation minimum of section in which located the middle and outlet of guide vane. When it is under the small flow operating condition, the eddy scale of guide vane is larger, and the pressure fluctuation of the channel in guide vane being cyclical fluctuations obviously which leads to the area of eddy expanding to the whole channel from the suction side. The middle of the guide vane suction surface of the minimum amplitude pressure fluctuation to which the vortex core of eddy scale whose direction of fluid's rotation is the same to impeller in the guide vane adhere.

The superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) is an electric power device that limits the fault current immediately in a power grid. Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO) has been developing a 154 kV, 2 kA SFCL since 2011 to protect power grids from increasing fault current and improve the stability and quality of electric power. This SFCL adopts 2G YBCO wires and operates at 71 K and 5 bars. In this paper, a cooling system for the 154 kV SFCL and its cooling test results are reported. This cooling system uses a Stirling-type cooler to make sub-cooled liquid nitrogen ($LN_2$), which cools the superconductor modules of the SFCL. The $LN_2$ is circulated between the cooler and the cryostat that contains superconductor modules. The $LN_2$ also plays the role of a high voltage insulator between the modules and the cryostat, so the pressure was maintained at 5 bars for high insulation performance. After installation in a test site, the cooling characteristics of the system were tested. In this operation test, some important data were measured such as temperature distribution in $LN_2$, pressure change, performance of the heat exchanger, and cooling capacity of the total system. Consequently, the results indicate that the cooling system operates well as designed.

Crop status monitoring and yield prediction at higher spatial resolution is a valuable tool in various decision making processes including agricultural policy making by the national and local governments. A prototype crop forecasting system was developed to project the size of rice crop across geographic areas nationwide, based on daily weather pattern. The system consists of crop models and the input data for 1,455 cultivation zone units (the smallest administrative unit of local government in South Korea called "Myun") making up the coterminous South Korea. CERES-rice, a rice crop growth simulation model, was tuned to have genetic characteristics pertinent to domestic cultivars. Daily maximum/minimum temperature, solar radiation, and precipitation surface on 1km by 1km grid spacing were prepared by a spatial interpolation of 63 point observations from the Korea Meteorological Administration network. Spatial mean weather data were derived for each Myun and transformed to the model input format. Soil characteristics and management information at each Myun were available from the Rural Development Administration. The system was applied to the forecasting of national rice production for the recent 3 years (1997 to 1999). The model was run with the past weather data as of September 15 each year, which is about a month earlier than the actual harvest date. Simulated yields of 1,455 Myuns were grouped into 162 counties by acreage-weighted summation to enable the validation, since the official production statistics from the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry is on the county basis. Forecast yields were less sensitive to the changes in annual climate than the reported yields and there was a relatively weak correlation between the forecast and the reported yields. However, the projected size of rice crop at each county, which was obtained by multiplication of the mean yield with the acreage, was close to the reported production with the $r^2$ values higher than 0.97 in all three years.

뇌의 유전자 발현 정보는 영역별 기능과 밀접한 관련이 있어 이를 분석하기 위해 다수의 유전자들 간의 발현 정도 및 발현 위치 정보와의 관계에 대한 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 컴퓨터 기술을 통해 알렌 뇌과학연구소에서 제공하는 약 2만여개의 쥐 뇌 유전자 발현 정보 중 뇌의 해마 영역을 중점적으로 분석하여 유전자들을 자동으로 분류해내고 발현 위치 정보를 기반으로 군집화하여 가시화하는 방법을 제안한다. 이를 통해 해마 내 전체적으로 발현되는 유전자들과 특정 영역에만 발현되는 유전자들을 분류할 수 있었고 그 중 특정 영역에 발현되는 유전자들의 위치정보 기반으로 군집화된 데이터를 뇌 지도와 함께 관찰 할 수 있었다. 본 연구는 뇌의 기능과 영역과의 관계성 관련 생물학적 연구를 위한 실험군 선정작업에 이용되어 실험설계시간을 줄일 수 있고 기존에 알려진 뇌의 해부학적 구조보다 더욱 세분화된 구조를 발견할 수 있는 가능성을 제시할 것으로 기대된다.

Watershed boundaries and flow paths within the watershed are the most important factors required in watershed analysis. Most often the derivation of watershed boundaries and stream network and flow paths is based on topographical maps but spatial variation of flow direction is not clearly understandable using this method. Water resources projects currently use 1: 50, 000-scale ground survey or aerial photography-based topographical maps to derive watershed boundary and stream network. In basins, where these maps are not available or not accessible it creates a real barrier to watershed geo-spatial analysis. Such situations require the use of global datasets, like GTOPO30. Global data sets like ETOPO5, GTOPO30 are the only data sets, which can be used to derive basin boundaries and stream network and other terrain variations like slope aspects and flow direction and flow accumulation of the watershed in the absence of topographic maps. Approximately 1-km grid-based GTOPO 30 data sets can derive better outputs for larger basins, but they fail in flat areas like the Karkheh basin in Iran and the Amudarya in Uzbekistan. A new window in geo-spatial hydrology has opened after the launching of the space-borne satellite stereo pair of the Terra ASTER sensor. ASTER data sets are available at very low cost for most areas of the world and global coverage is expected within the next four years. The DEM generated from ASTER data has a reasonably good accuracy, which can be used effectively for hydrology application, even in small basins. This paper demonstrates the use of stereo pairs in the generation of ASTER DEMs, the application of ASTER DEM for watershed boundary delineation, sub-watershed delineation and explores the possibility of understanding the drainage flow paths in irrigation command areas. All the ASTER derived products were compared with GTOPO and 1:50,000-based topographic map products and this comparison showed that ASTER stereo pairs can derive very good data sets for all the basins with good spatial variation, which are equal in quality to 1:50,000 scale maps-based products.

천수방정식을 사용하는 초기 수치모형은 프로드수($F_4$)가 변화하는 흐름 즉, 상류방향과 하류방향으로 전파하는 홍수파를 동시에 해석하기 위해 중앙 차분기법이 필요한 상류(sub-critical flow)와 흐름방향에 따른 상류이송(upwinding)기법이 필요한 사류(super-critical flow)가 나타나는 흐름해석에서 어려움이 있었다. 하지만, 근사 Riemann 해법의 등장으로 흐름방향에 관계없이 특성선을 따라 정확한 상향가중기법의 적용이 가능하게 되어, 천수방정식을 지배방정식으로 하는 수치모형이 더욱 실용적으로 적용될 수 있도록 하였다. 따라서, 현재 근사 Riemann 해법은 Godunov 형 유한체적 기법, 불연속 Galerkin 혹은 Petrov-Galerkin 유한요소기법 그리고 Boussinesq 기법에도 적용되고 있으며, 특히 Godunov 형 유한체적기법과 결합한 근사 Riemann 해법은 댐 붕괴, 하천 범람 그리고 도시 및 해안지역 침수에 이르기까지 여러 가지 문제에 폭넓게 적용되고 있다. 지금까지 홍수 모델링에 적용된 Godunov형 유한체적모형은 정형 사각격자나 비정형 삼각격자 중에서 한가지의 격자 종류만을 적용한 연구가 주로 수행되었으며, 유한요소모형과 같이 이 두 가지 격자를 동시에 적용한 연구는 거의 이루어지지 않고 있다. 일반적으로, 삼각격자는 사각격자와 는 달리 연구유역의 경계나 지형이 복잡한 경우에도 큰 노력없이 격자의 생성이 가능하나, 격자와 노드의 수가 사각격자보다 많아 계산시간이 많이 소요되는 단점이 있다. 반면, 사각격자는 하천과 같이 선형으로 변하는 지형에 대해서는 표현하기가 용이하며 계산시간의 효율성도 뛰어나다. 본 연구에서는 하천, 도시 그리고 해안지역에서의 효율적이고 정확한 홍수 모델링을 위해 삼각 및 사각격자 그리고 이 두 격자를 동시에 고려한 하이브리드 격자의 적용이 가능한 Godunov형 2차원 유한체적 모형을 개발하였다. 그리고 개발모형을 정확해가 있는 댐 붕괴 문제, 실측치가 존재하는 실험하도 및 실제하도에 삼각, 사각 그리고 혼합격자를 생성하여 모의를 수행하고, 각 적용 격자에 따른 정확성과 효율성 및 장점과 단점을 연구하였다.

This paper aims at presenting a numerical method for estimating the elastic modulus of recycled concrete with crushed aggregates. In the method, polygonal aggregates following a given sieve curve are generated, and placed into a square simulation element with the aid of the periodic boundary condition and the overlap criterion of two polygonal aggregates. The mesostructure of recycled concrete is reconstructed by embedding an old interfacial transition zone (ITZ) layer inside each recycled aggregate and by coating all the aggregates with a new ITZ layer. The square simulation element is discretized into a regular grid and a representative point is selected from each sub-element. The iterative method is combined with the fast Fourier transform to evaluate the elastic modulus of recycled concrete. After the validity of the numerical method is verified with experimental results, a sensitivity analysis is conducted to evaluate the effects of key factors on the elastic modulus of recycled concrete. Numerical results show that the elastic modulus of recycled concrete increases with the increase of the total aggregate content and the elastic moduli of old and new ITZ but decreases with increasing the replacement ratio of recycled aggregate and the thicknesses of old and new ITZ. It is also shown that, for a replacement ratio of recycled aggregate smaller than 0.3, the elastic modulus of recycled concrete is reduced by no more than 10%.

최근 에너지전환정책은 소규모 태양광발전기 수량을 증가시키고 있다. 계통운영자는 이러한 소규모 태양광 발전량을 정확하게 예측하기가 어렵고 급전계획을 방해할 수도 있으며, 결과적으로 비용상승이 초래될 것이다. 이러한 문제를 해결하는 방법으로 소규모 태양광발전소에서 생산되는 발전량, 전압제어에 대하여 불확실성을 줄이고 예비전력을 공급하는 소규모 태양광발전소의 집합체로서 가상발전소가 떠오르고 있다. 본 연구에서는 가상발전소 클라우드 요금산정을 위하여 순현재가치법과 수익성지수법을 사용하며, 두 종류의 비용평가법 계산결과가 상세하게 설명된다. 계산결과로부터 수익성지수가 1.22로 산정되어 수익성을 확보한 것으로 나타났으며, 순현재가치가 수익성을 충분히 만족시키기 때문에 중개사업자 관점에서 매력적이다.

Horizon Run 5 (HR5) is a cosmological hydrodynamical simulation which captures the properties of the Universe on aGpc scale while achieving a resolution of 1kpc. This enormous dynamic range allows us to simultaneously capture the physics of the cosmic web on very large scales and account for the formation and evolution of dwarf galaxies on much smaller scales. On the back of a remarkable achievement of this, we have finished to run follow-up simulations which have 2 times larger volume than before and are expected to complementary to some limitations of previous HR simulations both for the study on the large scale features and the expansion history in a distant Universe. For these simulations, we consider the sub-grid physics of radiative heating/cooling, reionization, star formation, SN/AGN feedbacks, chemical evolution and the growth of super-massive blackholes. In order to do this project, we implemented a hybrid MPI-OpenMP version of the RAMSES code, 'RAMSES-OMP', which is specifically designed for modern many-core many thread parallel systems. These simulation successfully reproduce various observation result and provide a large amount of statistical samples of Lyman-alpha emitters and protoclusters which are important to understand the formation and expansion history of early universe. These are invaluable assets for the interpretation of current ΛCDM cosmology and current/upcoming deep surveys of the Universe, such as the world largest narrow band imaging survey, ODIN (One-hundred-square-degree Dark energy camera Imaging in Narrow band).
