Infrared thermography uses infrared energy radiated from any objects above absolute zero temperature, and the range of its application has been constantly broadened. As one of the active test techniques detecting radiant energy generated when energy is applied to an object, ultrasound infrared thermography is a method of detecting defects through hot spots occurring at a defect area when 15~100 kHz of ultrasound is excited to an object. This technique is effective in detecting a wide range affected by ultrasound and vibration in real time. Especially, it is really effective when a defect area is minute. Therefore, this study conducted thermography through lock-in signal processing when an actual defect exists inside the austenite STS304 seamless pipe, which simulates thermal fatigue cracks in a nuclear power plant pipe. With ultrasound excited, this study could detect defects on the rear of a pipe by using an aluminium reflector. Besides, by regulating the angle of the aluminium reflector, this study could detect both front and rear defects as a single infrared thermography image.

The bubbles made of hydrogen and oxygen gases producted by electrolysis disturb the electrolysis, but the behavior of these bubbles in the electrolysis stack isn't clearly defined. In order to study on the behavior of bubbles in the flow pattern of the meshes type separator, the flow visualization experiment was performed by using of a visible alkaline electrolysis stack and a stereoscopic microscope. As the results, a fine size bubbles adhered to the separator's surface in the electrolyte solution have grown large sized bubbles until each bubble's buoyance is lager than the sum of surface adhesion force and weight. And then the large bubbles flow into the upper area of the separator. Also, as wide area of the separator have been occupied by various sized bubbles, the electrolysis efficiency is declined.

Daegu Solar Power Tower Plant of 200 kW thermal capacity was developed for the first time in Korea, 2011. Measurement of the heat flux distribution is essential to evaluate the solar energy concentrated by reflectors and to design a suitable receiver. The flux mapping technique, which uses a radiometer and a diffuse plate, is common for measurement of the heat flux distribution. Because the solar power tower plant has a wide concentration area, the flux mapping technique using a fixed diffuse plate is difficult to apply. Therefore, the flux distribution in the solar power tower plant should be measured by the flux mapping technique using a small moving bar. In this study, we measured flux distributions with the moving-bar system developed at the KIER solar furnace and evaluated its applicability for the solar power tower plant.

This research is that analyze multi-body system that have flexible and rigid body. Transfer robots are widely used mainly in automobile industry owing to its capability to handle heavy parts with high speed in wide range of movement. For the transfer robots to widen the application area, a new three-axis mechanism with heavy payload has been recently developed in consideration of the strength and stiffness. For the purpose, transient dynamic analysis is carried out to find the component position yielding a certain time. Though this research, we can analysis stress distribution and deformation of robot component.

Electric double-layer capacitors based on charge storage at the interface between a high surface area activated carbon electrode and an electrolyte solution are characterized by their long cycle-life and high power density in comparison with batteries. However, energy density of electric double-layer capacitors obtained at present is about 6 Wh/kg at a power density of 500W/kg which is smaller as compared with that of batteries and limits the wide spread use of the capacitors. Therefore, a new capacitor that shows larger energy density than that of electric double-layer capacitors is proposed. The new capacitor is the hybrid capacitor consisting of activated carbon cathode, carbonaceous anode and an organic electrolyte. Maximum voltage applicable to the cell is over 4.2V that is larger than that of the electric double-layer capacitor. As a result, discharged energy density on the basis of stacked volume of electrode, current collector and separator is more than 18Wh/l at a power density of 500W/l.

According to the climatic characteristics of the wind power output is difficult to predict and a severe strain due to a change in output has been very influential in the grid. Jeju Hangwon wind farm, many of the wind generator is installed in a wide area because it is not have this device that artificially Smoothing is needed. In addition, By the requirements of the power company active power supply / control and improve power system reliability and energy storage during the peak demand for electricity using the energy stored in the power supply is needed. In this paper, Unit 12 in Jeju Hangwon demonstrated 0.5MW PCS and energy storage system associated with the wind through the stabilization of output and the leveling of output and test results will be introduced.

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) can be applied to various industry fields and environment analysis fields with the progress of various sensor technologies. Also WSN help automatically monitoring of sensor nodes installed at wide area. Especially, the tiny sensor nodes recently developed for the environment analysis require much more electronic power. The reasons are the measurable fields are departmentalized and the more detailed measuring fields are created by the development of various materials and applications. Furthermore, the sensor nodes operated by small batteries for the fields require low cost and low power consumption in wireless networks technology. The power efficiency is the most important factor for the WSN life time. Because the sensor nodes are installed at wide area and hard to recover. This paper proposes the WSN algorithm is applied sensor node that has low power consumption and efficiency measurement.

Recently study on components for a electric golf car and a utility car driven by a electric motor has been performed actively, and the study on a drive motor, a inverter and a battery focuses on a small, light weight and high power density source to improve fuel efficiency using limited electric energy. Especially, since a utility car such as a golf car performance depends on initial acceleration and maximum speed capability, a drive system requires high power and large and wide operation area, This study therefore investigates on the interior permanent magnet synchronous motor with high power density and wide operation, and is verified with the test result after design and characteristic analysis is performed.
