Recently many efforts have been carried out on the development of energy-efficient and environment-friendly systems in order to preserve natural environment and to reduce environmental loads in the branch of the urban planning and the building design. In this study, a mathematical method was developed and a numerical analysis was carried out with various parameters to provide substantial data for optimal design and operation of urban energy supply systems. Components of the system and their specifications, such as a co-generation system and other heating and cooling systems, could be obtained through this analysis for various resource and energy requirements in urban area. In this study, the system constituents and operating characteristics, and their economic performances such as the value of objective function, the amount of energy consumption were discussed for various load patterns and power load ratios. Also, it turns out that the optimal energy supply system can save energy by $10{\sim}20%$ in comparison with the conventional energy supply system.

A construction process of hydrogen peroxide supply system was investigated to use hydrogen peroxide as an oxidizer of bi-propellant liquid rocket engine. To use hydrogen peroxide as a rocket propellant, it has to be in high concentration over 90%. It is very important to make the supply system free of pollutants, because highly concentrated hydrogen peroxide has a characteristic of hypersensitive reaction to pollutants such as dust and oil sludge. We suggested the cleaning and passivation process of main components to minimize pollutants of the supply system. In conclusion, we verified stability of the constructed supply system by leak test and hot test.

This paper presents methods to improve performance of the power supply system in a NASA deep space explorer. In the Stirling engine driven reciprocating Brushless DC (BLDC) generator, the accurate position information of the prime mover is important to diagnose the performance of the engine and prevent distortion of the output power. Since sensors to detect the position are fragile and unreliable, and conventional sensorless techniques have drawbacks in the low speed region, a novel sensorless position detection technique for the prime mover has been proposed and verified. Another major issue of the generator for the spacecraft is power density maximization. The mass of the power system is important to the mass of the satellite. Therefore, the components of the spacecraft should be lightweight. Conventional rectification methods cannot achieve the maximum power possible due to non-optimal current waveforms. The optimal current waveform for maximizing power density and minimizing machine size and weight in a nonsinusoidal power supply system has been derived, incorporated in a control system, and verified by simulation work.

Wind power system is generally divided into the onshore wind turbine and the offshore wind turbine according to site locations. The offshore wind turbine is manufactured as a closed nacelle cooling system including a heat exchanger to prevent corrosion, but the onshore wind turbine is manufactured as open nacelle cooling system dependent on only the outdoor air without a heat exchanger. The indoor of a nacelle which is composed of a generator, foil power converters and a gearbox with a lot of heat is very narrow and airtight. This aim of the study is to demonstrate the temperature effect depending on positions of air-supply and exhaust ports. And this study discusses the flow field and removal efficiency of heat caused by components.

Recently, the Malaysian government had been developing new technologies to the construction industry and one of them is the Industrialised Building System (IBS). The government urged that IBS is 100% utilized in all construction projects. It is believed that the application of IBS helps in reducing construction duration and cost, solving the problems of overflow of foreign workers in the site and improving performance and appearance of a structure. However, there are some parties like the contractor who feel reluctant to utilize this system because there are risks. They worry that their trades will be affected as IBS construct a structure using components which are manufactured in a factory and assemble on site. Therefore, this research is to find out whether IBS benefits the country's economy by focusing on the business created by investing in IBS. A comprehensive supply chain for IBS will be developed to compare with the traditional construction supply chain as to determine businesses or trades created and eliminated. This paper is looking at the theoretical framework about business opportunities due to the Government policy on embarking IBS.

In this paper, a prototype of power supply with a power factor correction is proposed. As a unique feature the proposed power supply, a status monitoring circuit is embedded on the switching power supply. The status monitoring circuit analyzes the functionality of the system and saves the key components of the power supply in the case of malfunctions. The results of various fault tests are reported to verify the operation and performance of the proposed method. This paper discusses the experimental results of the monitoring module and provides the technical information to monitor, predict, and troubleshoot the system against the potential failure of power supplies for real applications.

This paper deals with design and fabrication of heater-triggered switching system for the high-Tc superconducting (HTS) power supply with series-connected double-pancake load. Amongst all components, heater triggering is the most important element for the performance of HTS power supply. To fabricate the optimal heater-triggered system, its characteristics have been analysed through the simulation and expriment. The thermal analysis of switching parts of the Bi-2223 solenoid according to the heater input was carried out. Based upon the analysis, 8A electromagnet current and 1.5A DC Heater current were optimally derived, and 8s and 20s for the pumping period were selected in this experiment. In the experiment. the maximum pumping current reached about 24A with Bi-2223 pancake load of 6mH.

An Integrated Outage Management System (IOMS) is a utility owned, centralized information system. Using the Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) methodology, the IOMS integrates different databases and components of outage management systems to improve the quality of service of electrical power to customers. This paper describes the development of an IOMS and its related utility functionality. The design considerations, salient features, component integration, functional aspects, and implementation issues of the IOMS are discussed. Evidence shows that the IOMS implementation would result in improving the overall quality of electric power supply and effective outage management significantly.
