The design of Intelligent Energy Saving Power System Controller (IESPSC) for Telecom DC power plants is proposed and presented in this paper. From the past experience. rectifiers for Telecom DC power plants have been operated inefficiently at light loads. IESPSC offers "novel load sharing" approach based on the knowledge of each unit's efficiency of paralleled rectifiers. Neural networks is used for identifying each rectifier's efficiency characteristic curve corresponding to load currents, which is in turn utilized to produce a system efficiency close to the maximum under all operating conditions. In addition, by limiting the number of operating units to the minimum while maintaining high efficiency at the determined loads, a drastic savings in operating cost can be achieved.

Recently, the energy situation in Korea has been significantly changed. Rapid increase in electricity demand, tremendous financial need for new power plant construction, and environmental problem have led to search for more efficient energy production and energy conservation technologies. Due to the potential energy and cost savings to both electric utilities and industries, cogeneration will play an important role in the electric power and thermal energy supply in the future. In this study, we present the COGENMASTER computer model for optimal system configuration and economic analysis of cogeneration system. We also present several case studies with this module to analyze Korean cogeneration market. The result of this study will be useful to utility and industrial cogeneration planners for rapid analysis of cogeneration's value under a broad range of scenarios.

This study analyzed the regional economic feasibility of greenhouse gases (GHGs) reduction technology in paddy rice. Firstly, the impact of GHGs reduction technology on productivity, emission reduction, and costs is different from region to region. Secondly, the water irrigation system contributes to productivity, GHGs reduction, and water reduction, but the profit of paddy rice will decrease because of increase in fixed costs and variable costs. Thirdly, the economic feasibility shows that water-savings plot has a 1.41 in a benefit-cost ratio.

RFID is used for tracking systems in various business fields these days and these systems brought considerable efficiencies and cost savings to companies. Real-time based information acquired through RFID devices could be a valuable source of information for making decisions if it is combined with decision support tools like OLAP of a data warehouse that has originally been designed for analyzing static and historical data. As an effort of extending the data source of a data warehouse, RFID is combined with a data warehouse in this research. And OLAP is designed to analyze the dynamic real-time based information gathered through RFID devices. The implemented prototype shows that ubiquitous computing technology such as RFID could be a valuable data source for a data warehouse and is very useful for making decisions when it is combined with online analysis. The system architecture of such system is suggested.

The road simulators have become common tools within the automotive industry for evaluation of vehicle and vehicle system durability performance. These simulators need appropriate input signal generation algorithms to realize the actual driving conditions due to non-linear vehicle and test rig behaviour. Although somewhat unconventional from a control standpoint, the iteration approach has proven to be a very effective method for control of complex, multiple degree-of-freedom systems where the tracking parameter is known a priori. In this paper, the road profile replication algorithm is verified by applying Belgian road to the developed road simulator. The simulation and experimental results are included to evaluate the performance of this simulator. This road simulator provides considerable savings in cost, development time, and testing risk during developing automotive components.

Demand Response Programs (DRP) are critical to the operation of efficient and competitive energy markets. and provide critical market improvements to Independent System Operators (ISO). To all energy market Participants, they Provide savings and cost reductions when end users have the ability to respond to wholesale prices. Now, in the competitive electricity market, DRP is classified by Emergency and Economic DRP to reduce costs and maintain reliability. In this paper, we survey the trend of Demand Response Program over the world and compare the practical performance among the markets in US.

This paper proposes an efficient method of reconstructing interconnections when the terminals of each plane change in real-time situations where randomly divided planes are interconnected. To connect all terminals when the terminals of each plane are changed, we usually reconstruct the interconnections between all terminals. This ensures a minimum connection length, but it takes considerable time to reconstruct the interconnection for the entire terminal. This paper proposes a solution to obtain an optimal tree close to the minimum spanning tree (MST) in a short time. The construction of interconnections has been used in various design-related areas, from networks to architecture. One of these areas is an ad hoc network that only consists of mobile hosts and communicates with each other without a fixed wired network. Each host of an ad hoc network may appear or disappear frequently. Therefore, the heuristic proposed in this paper may expect various cost savings through faster interconnection reconstruction using the given information in situations where the connection target is changing.

This work concerns the investigation of a Q1D methodology employed to study pressure oscillations in solid rocket motors driven by hydrodynamic instabilities. A laboratory-scale solid motor designed to develop vortex-shedding phenomena is analyzed for the whole firing time. The comparison between numerical results and experimental data shows good agreement regarding pressure oscillations signature, especially in the flute-mode behavior, the typical oscillations frequency trend present in any motor liable to hydrodynamic instabilities. Such result ensures the model capability to cope with this particular kind of pressure oscillations source, allowing the investigation of the phenomenon with a lighter and cost savings methodology than CFD simulations.
