It is very important to improve the overall efficiency of systems with a source of power that has low-voltage high-current terminal characteristics such as fuel cells. A resonant converter is required for high efficiency systems. However, the peak value of the switches current is large in a resonant converter. This peak current requires a large number of switches and results in system failures. In this paper, an analysis and experiments of a resonant isolation push-pull converter are performed. A switching loss analysis is performed in order to compare losses between a resonant push pull converter and a hard switching push-pull converter. Specially, the conduction loss is studied based on the ratio between the resonant frequency and the switching frequency. In addition, a method for improving the efficiency is implemented with conventional HF insolation converters.

The purpose of this study is to procure basic data to be used for solar power plant and concentrating collector designs. Site elevation is one of the major factors which influences the incoming insolation to the earth surface. Because the nonpermanent gases such as ozone, water vapor are unmixed components of the atmosphere and their concentrations are the function of height, the site elevation effects the relative proportion of the atmospheric constituents. We have measured solar radiation on Jiri Mt. (1,400m) and in Gurye area(115m) at the near same latitude. These values were then compared to obtain their characteristics and to investigate the potential for the solar utilization for both high and low elevated areas. From the experimental results, we concluded that 1) Daily mean horizontal global radiation and normal beam radiation on Mt. Jiri are 9.5%, and 35.3% higher than Gurye area respectively for a clear day. 2) A significant difference in atmospheric clearness index is observed between Mt. Jiri and Gurye areas.

유독성 Cochlodinium polykrikoides 적조의 최초발생해역으로 알려져 있는 나로도 주변 해역의 해양환경적 특징을 조사하기 위해서 1992년부터 2007년까지 국립수산과학원이 실시한 해양환경측정망 자료 및 적조정보자료와 고흥지방의 기후자료 등을 분석하였다. Cochlodinium polykrikoides 적조는 8월에 나로도 주변 해역에서 최초로 발생한 경우가 가장 많았고, 그 발생시기는 해마다 빨라지고 있는 경향을 보였다. 또한 나로도 주변 해역에서의 표층 염분도 계속 증가하는 추세를 보여, Cochlodinium polykrikoides 적조 발생시기의 빨라짐과의 어떤 관련성을 시사하였다. 한편 나로도 주변 해역에서 Cochlodinium polykrikoides 적조가 최초로 발생할 때는 동일한 시기의 가막만 또는 진해만 해역에 비해 상대적으로 일사량은 많았고 강수량은 적었다. 8월의 나로도 주변 해역의 평균 수온 및 염분은 동일한 시기의 가막만 및 진해만에 비하여 평균 수온은 $0.2{\sim}0.6^{\circ}C$, 염분은 $1.84{\sim}3.91psu$ 각각 더 높았으며, 두 해역에 비해 상대적으로 고온, 고염을 나타내었다. 또한 나로도 주변 해역은 부영양화 해역으로 알려진 진해만에 비해서는 영양염이나 식물플랑크톤의 농도가 현저히 낮았으나, 전체적인 수질환경은 가막만과 크게 다르지 않은 것으로 판단되었다. 주성분 분석결과, 나로도 주변 해역에서 최초로 발생하는 Cochlodinium polykrikoides 적조 요인으로서는 기상인자와 물리적 환경인자인 일사량과 수온이 가장 중요하며, 부차적으로 수질요소인 COD와 용존산소의 농도가 여기에 관여하고 있음을 보여주었다. 태풍 또한 Cochlodinium polykrikoides 적조 발생에 있어 중요한 요인 중의 하나로 생각되었다.

태양전지는 일사량, 온도와 부하에 의해 크게 변동하기 때문에 가능한 한 많은 에너지를 얻기 위해서는 태양전지의 출력을 항상 최대로 제어할 필요가 있다. 태양전지의 출력은 직류이므로 교류부하에 적용하기 위해서는 전력변환장치 중 인버터가 필수적이며 단위 역률을 갖는 정현파 전류 및 전압을 부하계통에 공급해 주어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 태양광 발전시스템을 승압 쵸퍼와 단상 PWM(Pulse Width Modultion) 전압형 인버터로 구성하였고, 안정된 변조를 위해서 동기신호와 제어신호를 원칩 마이크로프로세서에 의해서 처리하였다. 전력비교에 따라 시비율을 변화시키지만 태양전지는 전형적인 수하특성을 갖고 있어, 일사량과 온도변화에 관계없이 항상 최대 출력 점을 추적하도록 승압초퍼를 제어하였다. 단상 PWM 전압형 인버터는 태양전지가 연속 발전할 수 없는 단점을 보완하기 위해 일반 상용전원과 연계함으로써 약 $10{\sim}20%$ 전력절감효과를 얻을 수 있는 에너지절약 전원복합형 전력변환장치로 구성되어 있다. 단상 PWM 전압형 인버터와 위상동기를 위해서 계통전압을 검출하여 계통전압과 인버터 출력을 동상 운전하므로 잉여전력을 계통과 연계할 수 있게 하여 고 역률과 저고조파 출력을 유지 하므로써 부하와 계통에 전력이 안정하게 공급될 수 있도록 제어하였다.

In an effort to estimate secondary $PM_{10}$ concentrations and their diurnal variations at different photochemical activities, $PM_{10}$, CO, and $O_3$ concentrations obtained from the ambient air quality network located in Seoul are analyzed for the period from 2000 to 2005. In order to classify the photochemical activities on a daily basis, measured ${\Delta}O_{3,\;max-min}$ (maximum $O_3$-minimum $O_3$) and ${\int}(hv)dt$ which represents accumulated daily insolation, were used to classify each day into three regimes: 1) low photochemical reactivity; ${\Delta}O_{3,\;max-min}\;{\leq}\;40\;ppb$, and ${\int}(hv)dt\;{\leq}\;4000\;W/m^2$, 2) moderate photochemical reactivity; $40\;ppb\;<\;{\Delta}O_{3,\;max-min}\;{\leq}\;60\;ppb$, and $4000\;{\leq}\;{\int}(hv)de\;{\leq}\;6000\;W/m^2$, and 3) high photochemical reactivity; ${\Delta}O_{3,\;max-min}\;>\;60\;ppb$, and ${\int}(hv)dt\;{\geq}\;6000\;W/m^2$. The ratio of ($PM_{10}$/CO) obtained at low photochemical activity regime was used as an index of tracer for the estimation of secondary $PM_{10}$ at higher photochemical activity regimes. The results show that the estimated secondary $PM_{10}$ concentrations for moderate and high photochemical regimes are found to be 18.8% ($10.9\;{\mu}g/m^3$), and 35.0% ($26.2\;{\mu}g/m^3$), respectively. Diurnal variation of secondary $PM_{10}$ for the moderate photochemical regime shows weak but noticeable patterns. However, the highly activated photochemical regime shows strong diurnal variations of secondary $PM_{10}$ concentrations with the maximum value of $35.1\;{\mu}g/m^3$ at 1300LST.

Solar collectors to be applied are mainly flat-plate or vacuum tube collector which is used for hot water supply of house because of low heat value and low temperature. There are a necessity to expand applicable scope of solar collector into the industrial process heat source and air conditioner for coping with renewable energy policy of government and industrial trend. This study is to analysis the performance of PTC solar collector of concentrating type and flat-plate of non-concentrating. For this, temperature difference and heating value as insolation of air outside is measured from these two collectors mounted on 2-axial solar tracking system. It is investigated that temperature profile obtained from PTC solar collector is uniform and collecting heat per unit area is 6.8kcal/$m^2$ min which is about 3 times with compare to flat-plate collector of 2kcal/$m^2$min. Also the amount of heat to be produced from PTC solar collector is 3 Mcal/$m^2$ which is about 2 times with compare to flat-plate collector of 1.5Mcal/$m^2$ as a result of operating these two collectors during one month. Therefore, it is obtained that heat collecting performance of PTC solar collector is superior to flat-plate.

One of the most important characteristic curves of a solar cell is its current density-voltage (J-V) curve under AM1.5G insolation. Solar cell can be considered as a semiconductor diode, so a diode equivalent model was used to estimate its parameters from the J-V curve by numerical simulation. Active layer plays an important role in operation of a solar cell. We investigated the effect thicknesses and defect densities (N_d) of the active layer on the J-V curve. When the active layer thickness was varied (for N_d = 8×10¹⁷ cm^-3) from 800 nm to 100 nm, the reverse saturation current density (J_o) changed from 3.56×10^-5 A/cm² to 9.62×10^-11 A/cm² and its ideality factor (n) changed from 5.28 to 2.02. For a reduced defect density (N_d = 4×10¹⁵ cm^-3), the n remained within 1.45≤n≤1.92 for the same thickness range. A small increase in shunt resistance and almost no change in series resistance were observed in these cells. The low reverse saturation current density (J_o = 9.62×10^-11 A/cm²) and diode ideality factor (n = 2.02 or 1.45) were observed for amorphous silicon based solar cell with 100 nm thick active layer.

In case of favourable irradiation conditions, the ratio of irradiation to the total irradiation went up and then the irradiation increased in the area with high angle of inclination. The study showed that on a clear day with the irradiation of more than $800[W/m^2]$, the pattern of alternating current power change in the fixed system was similar with that in the single-axis tracker. On the contrary, in case of unfavourable irradiation conditions, the ratio of diffuse irradiation to the total irradiation went up and then the horizontal irradiation increased. In the demo system, the fixed system, the single-axis tracker and the dual-axis tracker all had low generation power and similar generation pattern with each other. The study showed the generation power varied with the irradiation in the fixed system, while in the single-axis tracker and the dual-axis tracker, the amount of the generation power variation was much more than the irradiation variation. The demo system was operated from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM for generating power, during which time, 46[%] to 56[%] of the total generation power was produced. In this study. the generation power was increased by 147[%] in the fixed system, by 136[%] in the single-axis tracker, and by 164[%] in the dual-axis tracker, and the pattern of generation power was similar with the generation power variation in the situation where the irradiation increased by 140[%] in the spring with plenty of insolation. The alternating current power was more sensitive to variation of the irradiation than to that of the surface temperature of a module. The variation of the irradiation had a more positive effect on the generation power than the type of array.
