This paper deals with the power integration of large urban railway systems to improve regenerative energy utilization. Current regenerative energy utilization is low because there is no special plan for using this energy. If the railway system is integrated with other railway systems, the efficiency is expected to be improved. Through the case studies, to find the realistic effect of integrated operation, real system for the Seoul Metro lines, especially line 5 and 7, had been applied.

Elastic-plastic structural analysis for regenerative cooling chamber of gas generator was performed. Uniaxial tension test was conducted for STS316L at room and high temperature conditions to get the material data necessary for the structural analysis of the chamber which was operated under thermal load and high internal pressure. Physical properties including thermal conductivity, specific heat and thermal expansion were also measured. The structural analysis for four different types of regenerative cooling chamber of gas generator revealed that increased cooling performance decreased the thermal load and strain of the cooling channel structure. The results propose that in order for the regenerative cooling gas generator chamber to have high structural stability with endurance to high mechanical and thermal loads, it is important for the chamber to be designed to have high cooling performance.

An aero-acoustic performance analysis method of regenerative blower is developed as one of the FANDAS codes. The aerodynamic performance of regenerative blower is predicted by using momentum exchange theory coupled with pressure loss and leakage flow models. Based on the performance prediction results, the noise level and spectrum of regenerative blower are predicted by discrete frequency and broadband noise models. The combination of the performance and the noise prediction methods gives aero-acoustic performance map and noise spectrum analysis results, which are well-agreed with the actual measurement results within a few percent relative error.

In this research, we presented the regenerative braking algorithms considering fuel economy and charging oftenness, and also analyzed these algorithms. The first algorithm was the regenerative braking algorithm for the ideal recovery of kinetic energy. The HEV using this algorithm had high fuel economy, on the other hand frequent charging was occurred. The second algorithm was the regenerative braking algorithm for reduction of the charging oftenness. Using this algorithm, the HEV had the low charging oftenness and small loss of fuel economy.

In this study the performance analysis and cooling capacity of desiccant cooling system incorporating regenerative cooler and direct evaporative cooler in the regeneration air inlet were investigated on the condition of low regeneration temperature and time rotation 180s and area ratio of regeneration to dehumidification section 0.7. The cooling capacity and COP are evaluated at various effectiveness values of the direct evaporative cooler or the regenerative evaporative cooler. As either of effectiveness of the regenerative and direct evaporative coolers of desiccant cooling system increases, both the cooling capacity and COP increase, but effectiveness value of regenerative cooler gives the opposite effect on the system performance. It is found that effectiveness of regenerative cooler less than 0.7 shows the optimum cooling capacity.

The simulation code was developed to analyze the amplification properties of the regenerative amplifier, such as gain narrowing, nonlinear effect, and energy saturation. To reduce gain narrowing in the regenerative amplifier, the input pulse with a symmetrical shape and the same center wavelength of the active medium should be amplified in the active medium with a broad fluorescence linewidth. In this respect, Ti:Sapphire with a low nonlinear refractive index, a high saturation fluence, and a broad fluorescence linewidth is the most appropriate medium for the regenerative amplifier. The knowledge and the important parameters were acquired for the optimum design of the regenerative amplifier.

The performances of side channel type regenerative blowers were evaluated by the blower performance test, 1-D performance prediction and CFD. The performance prediction method was modified using the results of the performance test and CFD and applied to the design of the new regenerative blowers. The major geometric parameters such as channel height, channel area and expansion angle were decided from the performance prediction method for the improved models and the predicted results were compared with CFD and experimental data. Both of the modified models showed improved efficiency at the operating condition. Especially, model3 could be possible to reduce operating rotating speed, that is benefit to noise performance, because of the high head performance at the design point. The CFD results showed that the performance of the regenerative blower was influenced by the secondary circulatory flow in the channel.

Recently, much attention has been paid to utilizing highly preheated air up to $1,000^{\circ}C$ through waste gas in industrial furnaces. The regenerative burner technology has shown to provide significant reduction in energy consumption (up to 60%), downsizing of the equipment (about 30%) and lower emissions (about 30%) while maintaining high thermal performance of the system since 2000. The object of this study is to develop the flameless regenerative burner for industrial furnaces based on the FLOX(Flameless Oxidation) principle and it has been designed and manufactured as pilot scale. Performance tests are experimentally done and their results are discussed. They showed 1) a very good uniformity in temperature distribution, 2) about 100 ppm in NOx at the temperature $1,300^{\circ}C$, 3) about 95% in temperature efficiency. Besides, the regenerative burner has advantage in easy maintenance and high usage rate of regenerator due to the separate and portable type of heat exchanger.

DC transit system has been adopted in the metropolitan area, Korea since 1974. EMU in this system always reiterates that acceleration and retardation. When EMU decelerates using electric breaking, regenerative power occurs. Regenerative power can be consumed in vicinity EMU on the same line or in resistor. If DC transit system has inverter for reusing regenerative power, Energy efficiency in DC transit system will be increased. This paper present the developed inverter for regenerative power and its test equipment. Test result of developed inverter is presented.
