In this paper, a novel high gain bidirectional modular dc-dc converter (BMC) with unipolar and bipolar structures for dc network interconnections is proposed. When compared with traditional dc grid-connecting converters, the proposed converter can achieve a high voltage gain with a simple modular transformerless structure. A sub-modular structure for the BMC is proposed to eliminate the unbalanced current stress between the different power units (levels) in the BMC. This can realize current sharing and standardized production and assembling. In addition, phase-interval operation is introduced to the sub-modules to realize low voltage and current ripple in both sides of the converter. Furthermore, two types of bipolar topologies of the sub-modular BMC were proposed to extend its application in bipolar dc network connections. In addition, the control system was optimized for grid-connection applications by providing various control strategies. Finally, simulations of a 3-level unipolar sub-modular BMC and a 4-level bipolar sub-modular BMC were conducted, and a 1-kW experimental 3-level unipolar prototype was developed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed converter.

Increasing cost of electricity due to rising price of fuel is one of the local community's main issues. In this research, switching of grid dependent system to the grid-tied Photovoltaic (PV) system with net metering for a residential building is proposed. The system is designed by considering the maximum energy demand of the building. The designed system is analyzed using RETScreen on technical, economic and environmental grounds. It is found that the system is able to produce 12,000 kWh/year. The system is capable to fulfill the electricity demand of the building during day time and is also capable to sell the energy to the local grid causing the electric meter to run in reverse direction. During night time, electricity will be purchased from grid, and electric meter will run in the forward direction. The system is economically justified with a payback period of only 3 years with net present value of PKR. 4,758,132. Also, the system is able to reduce 7.2 tons of CO₂ not produced in the entire life of the project.

We fabricated $(Li_{0.5-x}Na_xLa_{0.5})Ti_{0.8}Zr_{0.2}O_3$(LNTLZ)ceramics ($0{\leq}x{\leq}0.4$) with a perovskite structure via standard solid state synthesis. The influence of Na content on the structural and electrical properties of LNTLZ ceramics was also investigated. During XRD patterns analysis, all of the samples showed orthorhombic structure. The resistance of LNTLZ ceramics decreased as Na content increased, and the maximum activation energy shows 0.56 eV at x=0.4 at room temperature. These results indicated that LNTLZ ceramics are a candidate for use Lithium ion batteries as electrolytes.

A CELTHYM(CEll-based Long-term HYdrologic Model), a pre-processor and a post-processor that can be integrated with geographic information system(GIS) were developed to predict the stream flow from the small agricultural watershed on the daily basis. The CELTHYM calculates the direct runoff from a grid using SCS curve number method and then sum up all of cells with respect to a sub-catchment area belonged to a stream grid and integrated to an outlet. Base flow of a watershed outlet was computed by integrating of the base flow of each stream grid that was averaged the sub-catchment deep-percolation and calculated with the release rate. Two kind of water budget equation were used to compute the water balance in a grid that was classified into not paddy field and paddy field. One of the two equation is a soil water balance equation to account the soil moisture of the upland, forest and excluding paddy field grid. The other is a paddy water balance equation for the paddy field, calculating the ponding depth, the effective rainfall, the deep percolation and the evapotranspiration.

본 연구에서는 단일 전단 동축 분사기를 이용한 수소 로켓 연소기의 전산유체 해석을 수행하였다. 2차원 축대칭 형상에서 난류연소 해석을 위해 hybrid RANS/LES 난류모델을 적용하였다. 적합한 해석기법을 찾기 위해 3가지 화학 반응기구, 3가지 고해상도 기법 및 3단계 격자해상도 조합을 비교하였다. 벽면 열유속을 실험결과와 비교하여 해석 성능을 살펴보았으며, 유동장 결과 분석으로 동축 분사기를 가지는 로켓 연소기의 난류연소특성을 살펴볼 수 있었다.

본 논문은 SIFT-Grid 기반의 얼굴 인식 시스템에서 식별 능력의 향상과 계산량 감소를 목적으로 한다. 첫번째는 한 얼굴 클래스의 다양한 훈련 이미지로부터 비슷한 SIFT 특징점들은 제거하고, 상이한 특징점들은 병합하는 통합템플릿의 구성 방법을 제안한다. 통합템플릿은 SIFT-Grid를 통해 나누어진 훈련 이미지들의 동일 부분영역 내의 특징점들에 대한 유사도 행렬의 계산과 임계치 기반의 히스토그램의 계산을 통해 구성하였다. 두 번째는 구성된 통합템플릿들로부터 테스트 이미지의 효과적인 식별을 위한 유사도 계산 방법을 제안한다. 유사도의 계산은 테스트 이미지와 각 클래스의 통합템플릿간의 일대일 비교로 수행된다. 이때 동일 부분영역 별로 유사도 점수와 임계치 기반의 보팅 점수가 계산된다. 얼굴 인식 작업에 대한 실험 결과 제안된 방법이 SIFT-Grid 기반의 다른 두 방법보다 정확한 것으로 확인 되었고, 또한 계산량도 감소하였다.

The viscous interaction of stern wave is studied by simulating the free-surface flows, including sub-breaking phenomena around a high speed catamaran hull advancing on calm water. The Navier-Stokes equation is solved by a finite difference method where the body-fitted coordinate system, the wall function and the triple-grid system are invoked. The numerical appearance of the sub-breaking waves is qualitatively supported by the experimental observation They are also applied to study precisely on the stern flow of S-103 as to which extensive experimental data are available. For the catamaran, computations are carried out for the mono ana twin hulls.

A parametric study of a 2.5 kW class propeller type micro hydraulic turbine was performed. In order to analyze the internal flow characteristics in the hydraulic turbine, three dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with shear stress transport turbulence model were used and the hexahedral grid system was used to construct computational domain. To secure the reliability of the numerical analysis, the grid dependency test was performed using the grid convergence index method based on the Richardson extrapolation, and the grid dependency was removed when about 1.7 million nodes were used. For the parametric study, the axial distance at shroud span (L) between the inlet guide vane and the runner, and the inlet and outlet blade angles (β₁, β₂) of the runner were selected as the geometric parameters. The inlet and outlet angles of the runner were defined in the 3 spans from the hub to tip, and a total of 7 geometric parameters were investigated. It was confirmed that the outlet angles of the runner had the most sensitive effect on the power and efficiency of the micro hydraulic turbine.

상세한 지진해일 범람 현상을 규명하기 위하여 수립된 전회의 동적결합 차분 모형(Choi et al.)이 1983년 동해중부지진에 의한 지진해일 연구를 위해 우리나라 동해안 전역에 적용되었다. 계산영역은 격자의 크기가 다른 몇 개의 둥지영역이 평행하거나 경사가 진 방향으로 연결되어 구성되어 있다. 제일 안쪽의 둥지 영역은 해안을 따라 순차적으로 16영역으로 구성되었으며, 격자간격은 약 30m이다. 천수방정식(선형과 비선형)이 적용된 수치 시뮬레이션은 둥지영역의 격자크기에 따라 직각 또는 구면좌표계가 채택되었으며, 평행 및 경사 접합이 제일 안쪽의 둥지형 모형에 적용되었다. 시뮬레이션에 의한 결과는 지진해일 사상에 대한 처오름 높이의 관측치와 잘 일치하였다. 지진해일고 분포곡선의 개선이 수치적으로 연구되었으며, 지진원으로부터 거리가 먼 경우에는 대수정규분포를 따르는 경향을 보인다.
