This paper presents a current sensorless maximum power point tracking (MPPT) control method for dual-mode photovoltaic (PV) module-type interleaved flyback inverters (ILFIs). This system, called the MIC (Module Integrated Converter), has been recently studied in small PV power generation systems. Because the MIC is an inverter connected to one or two PV arrays, the power system is not affected by problems with other inverters. However, since the each PV array requires an inverter, there is a disadvantage that the initial installation cost is increased. To overcome this disadvantage, this paper uses a flyback inverter topology. A flyback inverter topology has an advantage in terms of cost because it uses fewer parts than the other transformer inverter topologies. The MPPT control method is essential in PV power generation systems. For the MPPT control method, expensive dc voltage and current sensors are used in the MIC system. In this paper, a MPPT control method without current sensor where the input current is calculated by a simple equation is proposed. This paper also deals with dual-mode control. Simulations and experiments are carried out to verify the performance and effectiveness of the proposed current sensorless MPPT control method on a 110 [W] prototype.

전자산업 부문의 친환경 대응이 이슈화 되면서 전자기기의 대기전력 소비감소를 위한 연구가 지속적으로 수행되고 있다. 전자기기의 대표적인 전원공급장치인 Switched Mode Power Supply(SMPS)의 경우 부하기기의 대기모드 시 극도로 낮은 출력전력에서 고효율을 달성해야 하는 요구가 높다. 특히 많은 SMPS들이 부하기기의 요구에 의하여 다출력 컨버터로 설계되어 있는데, 이러한 다출력 구조에서 대기모드 시 불필요한 출력을 절체함과 동시에 저전력에서 고효율을 내기가 쉽지 않다. 또한 다출력 구조로 인한 Cross Regulation 문제를 극복해야 하는 과제가 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 단일 컨버터 혹은 복수의 컨버터로 구성되어 있는 다출력 컨버터에서 대기전력 개선을 위한 Secondary Side Post Regulator(SSPR), 전류모드, Power Sequence 제어기술을 제안하고, 대기전력과 더불어 SSPR의 Cross Regulation 특성 개선을 검토하였다. 그리고 제안한 기술이 구현된 다출력 구조의 110W와 270W급 SMPS를 제작하여 회로의 타당성 및 우수성을 검증하였다.

LLDPE using power cable is used in electric insulators or dielectric materials because it is excellent in thermal properties or friendly environment but has defects of tree and accumulation of space charges. For the reason of that, it is blended with EVA to complement those problems. In this study, We made LLDPE/EVA samples that mixture ratio was 50:50, 60:40, 70:30, 80:20[W%] and studied physical and dielectric characteristics. We investigated the frequency and temperature dependency of tan 0 for mixtured samples in the temperature range of 25~110$[^{\circ}C]$, frequency range of $20{\sim}1\times10^6$ [Hz].

This paper describes anodic bonding characteristics of MCA to Si-wafer using evaporated Pyrex #7740 glass thin-films for MEMS applications. Pyrex #7740 glass thin-films with the same properties were deposited on MCA under optimum RF sputter conditions (Ar 100 %, input power $1\;W/cm^2$). After annealing at $450^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr, the anodic bonding of MCA to Si-wafer was successfully performed at 600 V, $400^{\circ}C$ in $110^{-6}$ Torr vacuum condition. Then, the MCA/Si bonded interface and fabricated Si diaphragm deflection characteristics were analyzed through the actuation and simulation test. It is possible to control with accurate deflection of Si diaphragm according to its geometries and its maximum non-linearity being 0.05-0.08 %FS. Moreover, any damages or separation of MCNSi bonded interfaces did not occur during actuation test. Therefore, it is expected that anodic bonding technology of MCNSi-wafers could be usefully applied for the fabrication process of high-performance piezoelectric MEMS devices.

니켈-수소화물전지의 음극재료로서 주목을 받고 있는 다원계 Zr기 Laves 합금의 조성에 따른 결정구조, 방전특성등을 조사하였다. 전극은 아크 용해한 합금을 분쇄한 분말과 PVA를 다공성니켈 foam에 충진하여 제작하였고 충방전시험은 6M KOH 용액중에서 수행하였다. 대상 합금은 ZrNi2를 기본조성으로 하여 이중 Ni의 일부를 V, Mn, Cr, Mo 또는 W로 치환한 삼원계 및 사원계 합금이었다. 이들 합금의 충방전 실험결과 ZrV0.5Mn0.5Ni1.0의 경우가 260 mAh/g로 가장 높은 방전용량을 나타내었다. 이 합금의 방전용량은 방전전류밀도의 영향을 크게 받았으며 10 mA/g과 200mA/g의 방전전류에서 각각 300mAh/g와 150mAh/g이었다. 이 합금을 110$0^{\circ}C$에서 열처리한 경우 저율방전시에는 방전용량의 변화가 거의 없었으나 수소의 확산이 율속이 될 것으로 생각되는 고율 방잔시에서는 방전용량이 현저하게 감소하였다. 이러한 현상은 열처리에 의해 수소의확산을 용이하게 해주는 격자결함이 감소하기 때문이 아닌가 생각된다.

Indium tin oxide (ITO) thin films (30 nm) were deposited on PET substrate by reactive DC magnetron sputtering using In/Sn(2, 5 wt.%) metal alloy target without intentionally substrate heating during the deposition under different DC powers of 70 ~ 110 W. The electrical properties were estimated by Hall-effect measurements system. The resistivity of ITO thin film deposited using In/Sn (5 wt.%) metal alloy target at low DC power increased with increasing annealing time. However, they increased with increasing annealing time at high DC power. In the case of ITO (Sn 2 wt%), we can't find clear change in resistivity with increasing annealing time. However, carrier density and mobility showed difference behavior due to change of oxygen vacancy.

Laser welding is usually a more effective method than electron-beam one since a vacuum chamber is not required. It is important for joining Zr-1%Nb (E110) alloy in a manufacturing process of nuclear fuel rods. In the present work, effect of energy parameters of pulsed laser welding on properties of butt joints of sheets with a thickness of 0.5 mm is investigated. The most efficient combination has been found (8-11 J pulse energy, 10-14 ms pulse duration, 780-810 W peak pulse power, 3 Hz pulse frequency, 1.12 mm/s welding speed). The results show that ultimate strength under static loading can not be used as a quality criterion for zirconium alloys welds. Increased shielding gas flow rate does not allow to protect weld metal totally and contributes to defect formation without using special nozzles. Several types of imperfections of the welds have been found, but the major problem is branching microcracks on the surface of the welds. It is difficult to identify the cause of their appearance without additional research on improving the welding zone protection (gas composition and flow rate as well as nozzle configuration) and studying the hydrogen content in the welds.

The plastic strain ratio is one of the factors of the deep drawability of metal sheets. The plastic strain ratio of Al sheet is low value. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the plastic strain ratio in order to improve the deep draw ability of the Al sheet. This study investigated the increase of the plastic strain ratio and the texture change of AA3003 sheet after the hot asymmetric rolling. The average plastic strain ratio of the initial AA3003 sheets was 0.69. After 83% hot asymmetric rolling at $200^{\circ}C$, the average plastic strain ratio was 0.83. The average plastic strain ratio of the 83% hot asymmetrically rolled AA3003 sheet at $200^{\circ}C$ is 1.2 times higher than that of the initial AA3003 sheet. The ${\mid}{\Delta}R{\mid}$ of 83% hot asymmetrically rolled AA3003 sheet at $200^{\circ}C$ is 0.83 times lower than that of the initial AA3003 sheet. This result is due to the development of the intensity of ${\gamma}-fiber$ texture and reduces the intensity of {001}<110> and {001}<100> textures after hot asymmetric rolling of AA3003 sheet.

For application in nuclear decommissioning, underwater laser cutting studies were conducted on thick stainless-steel plates for various cutting directions using a 6 kW fiber laser. For cutting along the horizontal direction with horizontal laser irradiation, the maximum cutting speed was 110 mm·min^-1 for a 48 mm thick stainless-steel plate. For cutting along the vertical direction with horizontal laser irradiation, a maximum speed of 120 mm·min^-1 was obtained for the same thickness, which confirmed that the cutting performance was similar but slightly better. Moreover, when cutting with vertically downward laser irradiation, the maximum cutting speed was 120 mm·min^-1 for a plate of the same thickness. Thus, the cutting performance for vertical irradiation was nearly identical to that for horizontal irradiation. In conclusion, it was possible to cut thick stainless-steel plates regardless of the laser irradiation and cutting directions, although the assist gas rose up due to buoyancy. These observations are expected to benefit laser cutting procedures during the actual dismantling of nuclear facilities.
