This paper deals with identification of probabilistic design using reliability based robust optimization in structure design of automatic salt collector. The thickness sizing variables of main structure member in the automatic salt collector were considered the random design variables including the uncertainty of corrosion that would be an inevitable hazardousness in the saltern work environment. The probabilistic constraint functions were selected from the strength performances of the automatic salt collector. The reliability based robust optimum design problem was formulated such that the random design variables were determined by minimizing the weight of the automatic salt collector subject to the probabilistic strength performance constraints evaluating from reliability analysis. Mean value reliability method and adaptive importance sampling method were applied to the reliability evaluation in the reliability based robust optimization. The three sigma level quality was considered robustness in side constraints. The probabilistic optimum design results according to the reliability analysis methods were compared to deterministic optimum design results. The reliability based robust optimization using the mean value reliability method showed the most rational results for the probabilistic optimum structure design of the automatic salt collector.

In the present study, PV/T collector was modeled via analysis of governing equations and physics of the problem. Specifications of solar radiation were computed based on geographical characteristics of the location and the corresponding time. Temperature of the collector plate was calculated as a function of time using the energy equations and temperature behavior of the photovoltaic cell was incorporated in the model with the aid of curve fitting. Subsequently, operational range for reaching to maximal efficiency was studied using Genetic Algorithm (GA) technique. Optimization was performed by defining an objective function based on equivalent value of electrical and thermal energies. Optimal values for equipment components were determined. The optimal value of water flow rate was approximately 1 gallon per minute (gpm). The collector angle was around 50 degrees, respectively. By selecting the optimal values of parameters, efficiency of photovoltaic collector was improved about 17% at initial moments of collector operation. Efficiency increase was around 5% at steady condition. It was demonstrated that utilization of photovoltaic collector can improve efficiency of solar energy-based systems.

This paper presents demonstration study results derived through field testing of a part load solar energized cooling system for the library of a cultural center building located in Gwangju, Korea. First operating demonstration system was set up in Gwangju in 2005. These system comprises the $200m^2$ evacuated tubular solar collector, a $6m^3$ heat storage tank. In a 2006, daily average of insolation showed about $506W/m^2$, the solar collector efficiency was 44%. In a 2007, daily average of insolation showed about$507W/m^2$, the solar collector efficiency was 42%. As a result, evacuated tubular solar collector kept the high efficiency for two years.

This paper challenges the fabrication of a thin film energy storage device on a flexible polymer substrate specifically by replacing most commonly used metal foil current collectors with coated current collectors. Mass-manufacturable spray-coating technology enables the fabrication of two different half-cell electric double layer capacitors (EDLC) with a spray-coated silver paste current collector and a Ni foil current collector. The larger specific capacitances of the half-cell EDLC with the spray-coated silver current collector are obtained as 103.86 F/g and 76.8 F/g for scan rates of 10 mV/s and 500 mV/s, respectively. Further, even though the half-cell EDLC with the spray-coated current collector is heavier than that with the Ni foil current collector, smaller Warburg impedance and contact resistance are characterized from Nyquist plots. For the applied voltages ranging from -0.5 V to 0.5 V, the spray-coated thin film energy storage device exhibits a better performance.

UTAC(unglazed transpired air collector) system has unique advantage for space heating and tempering ventilation air over the conventional collector system such as flat plate and vacuum collector. UTAC can improve radiative and convective loss due to nonglazed component and enhanced plate surface configuration. and heating energy and its equivalent green house emission performance can be improved from the use of this like collector in building application. The Option D Calibration simulation approach of IPMVP(International Performance Measurement and Verification Protocol) in ESCO businesses has been recommended to use of the calibrated computer modules like these Energy-10. DOE2.1E and TRNSYS(transient system simulation). This study is to develop subroutine type-203 of TRNSYS15.2 program and appraise thermal performance of UTAC. With newely addeded subroutine type-203. 1) Thermal performance of unglazed transpired collector could be possible based on dimensionless variables such as efficiency and heat exchanger effectiveness. and 2) Assessement of energy consists of solar useful and insulation saving for UTAC could be possible.

The purpose of this study was experimentally to investigate thermal performance of heat pipe for evacuated tubular solar collector. Two sets of evacuated tubular solar collector with different condenser shape of heat pipe were prepared. The experiments were performed under the same operating condition with an indoor testing apparatus. Also, the experiments were carried out various testing conditions including inclination, flow rate, and incident heat flux. The results of thermal performance of collector with enlarged condenser showed that $F_R({\tau}{\alpha})$ was 0.6572 and $F_RU_L$ was -2.0086 at $40^{\circ}$. And the results of thermal performance of collector with straight condenser showed that $F_R({\tau}{\alpha})$ was 0.6233 and $F_RU_L$ was -1.4996 at the same inclined angle.

Electrolyte-supported symmetric Ni-YSZ cermet electrodes of ca. $23{\mu}m$ were prepared by screenprinting and the impedance was measured as a function of humidity from 2% to 90% balanced in $H_2$ at a total flow rate of 50 sccm. The Ni felt current collector of 1 mm thickness exhibited a Gerischer-like gas concentration impedance in the low frequency range, which was similarly observed in the cermet-supported solid oxide cells, while the Pt paste collector exhibited only electrochemical polarization. The electrochemical polarization of both samples was modeled by a non-ideal diffusion-reaction transmission line model including CPEs with ${\alpha}$= 0.5. In the case of the Pt paste collector, all the Bisquert parameters exhibited humidity dependence to the -1/2 power, supporting a non-faradaic chemical reaction mechanism at three phase boundaries. Consequently, the surface diffusivity and reaction rate increased linearly with humidity. Less pronounced humidity dependence and somewhat lower utilization length with an Ni felt collector can be attributed to the diffusion-limited gas flow through the collector.

HMC(Hybrid Monte Carlo)시뮬레이션을 이용하여 InAlGaAs/InGaAs HBT의 비평형 고속전송을 해석하였고, 전송시간 및 차단주파수를 향상시키기 위하여 에미터-베이터 이종접합과 콜렉터 구조를 최적 설계 하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과, 에미터 조성경사영역에서 Al 몰비를 xf=1.0에서 xf=0.5로 변화시킬 경우 베이스 전송시간이τb=0.21ps로 가장 짧았다. 콜렉터 전송시간을 단축시킬 목적으로 콜렉터와 베이스 사이에 n\sup +\형 (콜렉터-Ⅰ), I형(콜렉터-Ⅱ), p형(콜렉터-Ⅲ), 콜렉터를 삽입하여 베이스-콜렉터 공간전하영역의 전계분포를 전자의 비평형고속전송을 유지하도록 설계하였다. 콜렉터-Ⅲ 구조에서는 전자의 음이온화된 억셉터가 콜렉터의 전계를 감소시킴으로써 전자가 Γ 밸리에서 먼 거리까지 전송을 가능하게 하여 가장 짧은 콜렉터 전송시간을 나타내었다. 결론적으로 가장 짧은 전송시간 τec는 Al 몰비가 xf=0.5인 에미터 구조와 콜렉터-Ⅲ에서 0.87psec이었고, 차단주파수 ft=183GHz를 나타내었다.
