Condensing gas boiler units may make a big role for the reduction of energy consumption in heating industries. In order to decrease the energy consumption of a boiler unit, the effective operation is necessary. In this study, the supply water temperature algorithm of a condensing gas boiler was developed. This includes the setpoint algorithm and the control algorithm of the supply water temperature. The setpoint algorithm was developed by the fuzzy logic and the control algorithm was developed by the proportional integral algorithm. In order to analyse the performance of the supply water temperature algorithm, the dynamic model of a condensing gas boiler system was used. Simulation results showed that the supply water temperature algorithm developed for this study may be practically applied for the control of the condensing gas boiler.

In order to control multi-zone temperatures, a multi-type air-conditioning system may be used. In this study, control algorithms for the compressor and the electronic expansion valve of a multi-type air-conditioning system were developed by using fuzzy logics. The compressor control algorithm was composed of a compressor pressure setpoint algorithm, a compressor pressure setpoint reset algorithm, and a compressor frequency setpoint algorithm. The electronic expansion valve control algorithm was composed of an indoor temperature control algorithm, and a superheat control algorithm. These algorithms were applied to a multi-type air-conditioning system. Test showed good results for the control of a multi-type air-conditioning system.

In order to improve the efficiency of a transformer cooling system, the intelligent algorithm was developed. The intelligent algorithm is composed of a setpoint algorithm and a control algorithm. The setpoint algorithm was developed by the neural network, and the control algorithm was developed by the fuzzy logic. These algorithms were used for the control of a blower and an oil pump of the transformer cooling system. In order to analyse performances of these algorithms, the dynamic model of a transformer cooling system was used. Based on various performance tests, energy savings and stable controls of a transformer cooling system were observed. Therefore, control algorithms developed for this study may be effectively used for the control of a transformer cooling system.

This paper presents an optimal and robust PI-PD controller design method for the second-order systems both with dead time and without dead time to satisfy the design specifications in the time domain via LQR design technique. The optimal tuning method of PI-PD controller are also developed by setpoint weighting and neural networks. It is shown that the simulation results show significantly improved performance by proposed method.

In Korea, the dose limits to the public were reduced according to ICRP-60 recommendations. The secondary quantities, Effluent Concentration Limits (ECLs) were derived and enacted to Korean Atomic Laws based on ICRP-60 recommendations. The Korea atomic laws require assurance that radioactive materials within gaseous effluents do not exceed dose limits and ECLs. This simply means that any effluent that would possibly contain radioactivity must be monitored. There are various methods to monitor the radioactivity of effluent monitor to satisfy the dose limits and the ECLs for gaseous effluents. The many factors (safety margin) should be considered in determining of the setpoint of effluent monitor, following these limits. In this study, we studied the determination method of alarm setpoint for gaseous effluent Radiation Monitoring Systems using dose factors considered the main pathway of radionuclides to compare the preceding determination method of alarm setpoint for gaseous effluent RMSs using dose assessment program considered all the practicable pathways of radionuclides.

Force and compliance control has been used in the control of legged walking vehicles to achieve superior terrain adaptability on rough terrains. The compliance control requires distribution of the vehicle load over the supporting legs. However, the constraint equations for ground reaction forces of supporting legs are generally underdetermined, allowing an infinite number of solutions. Thus, it is possible to apply an optimization criteria in solving the force setpoint problem. It has been observed that the previous force setpoint optimization methods sometimes cause a system stability problem and/or the load distribution among supporting legs is not well balanced due to a memory effect on the solution trajectory, This paper presents an iterative force setpoint method to solve this problem using an interpolation technique. By simulation it was shown that an excessive load unbalance among supporting legs and the memory effect in the force trajectory are alleviated much with the proposed method.

In order to improve the efficiency of the main transformer in a tilting train, the optimal operation of a cooling system is necessary. For the development of the optimal control algorithm of a cooling system, the mathematical model of a main transformer cooling system was developed. This includes the dynamic model of a main transformer, an oil pump, an oil cooler and a blower. The system algorithm of a cooling system, which consists of the temperature setpoint algorithm and the temperature control algorithm, was developed. Optimal oil temperatures of the inlet and the outlet of the main transformer were obtained by considering the total electric power consumption of the system. The oil inlet temperature was controlled by the blower and the oil outlet temperature was controlled by the oil pump. A simulation program was developed by using the mathematical model and the system algorithm. Simulation results showed that the system algorithm developed from this study may be effectively used to control the main transformer cooling system in a tilting train.
