Each country in the world currently concentrates on shifting into clean energy, which can be alternative energy, for global environment protection and solution to the problem of fossil fuel depletion. The Korean government is predicted to develop renewable energy, such as solar power, ground power, and offshore wind power, and to increase their supply ratios by ending the use of coals and nuclear power plants. This study conducted experiments on thermal storage performance of Trombe wall thermal storage materials using solar power and simulations in order to offer baseline data for the development of a hybrid air circulation system for heating that can maximize efficiency by simultaneously using solar and geothermal power. The study results are as follows: (1) In all the specimens with 3m, 5m, and 7m in the length of thermal storage pipe, $5.7^{\circ}C$, $7.8^{\circ}C$, and $10.5^{\circ}C$ rose, respectively, as the thermal storage effect of the specimens attaching insulation film and black tape to the general funnel. They were most excellent in terms of thermal storage effect. (2) As a result of thermal performance evaluation on the II type specimens, II-3 ($7.8^{\circ}C$ rise) > II-4 ($5.3^{\circ}C$ rise) > II-1 ($3.9^{\circ}C$ rise) > II-2 ($2.3^{\circ}C$ rise) was revealed, and thus II-3 (insulation film + black tape) was most effective as shown in the I type. (3) This study analyzed air current and temperature distribution inside of the greenhouse by linking actually measured values and simulation interpretation results through the interpretation of CFD (computational fluid dynamics). As a result, the parts absorbing heat and discharging heat around the thermal storage pipe could be visibly classified, and temperature distribution inside of the greenhouse around the thermal storage pipe could be figured out.

본 연구에서는 지열발전 등과 같은 저온 열원을 에너지원으로 하는 발전에 응용될 수 있는 흡수식 동력 사이클의 출력 최적화를 수행하였다. 이를 위해 정상상태 사이클 시뮬레이션을 수행하여 사이클의 성능을 고찰하였다. 시뮬레이션은 열원과 열침의 입구온도 및 유량을 고정한 상태에서 수행하였으며, 일반적인 발전소의 열원-열침 유량비를 고려하였다. 사이클의 성능은 두 개의 독립변수를 이용하여 나타내었는데, 이는 분리기 입구 암모니아 농도와 터빈 입구 압력이다. 시뮬레이션 결과, $100^{\circ}C$의 지열수와 $20^{\circ}C$의 냉각수(지열수 유량의 5배) 조건에서, 흡수식 동력 사이클을 이용하면 지열수 유량 1 kg/s 당 최대 약 14 kW의 출력을 얻을 수 있음을 보였다.

A small-scale solar concentrating system was developed and demonstrated for supplying process heat required in solar thermo chemical reaction. The concentration system consists of a heliostat equipped with a solar tracking device and a dish concentrator. From the initial thermal test of the concentrating system it was found that the system works very well with around 500-600 concentration ratio capable of supplying about 3kW therml energy to the reactor. Once the concentration system was turned on, the reactor temperature rapidly increased over $1,000^{\circ}C$ and could be maintained high enough for solar chemical reaction.

본 연구에서는 PV(photovoltaic)모듈에서 경년에 따른 효율 저하의 원인을 분석하기 위해 셀 레벨에서의 열충격 시험을 수행하였다. 열충격 시험의 조건은 $-40^{\circ}C$에서 $85^{\circ}C$로 각각 15분씩 30분을 1사이클로 하였으며, 열충격 시험 500 사이클 동안 100 사이클 간격으로 EL분석 및 I-V분석을 수행하였다. 효율 감소율은 단결정 Bare Cell이 8%, Solar Cell이 9%였으며, 다결정 Bare Cell이 6%, Solar Cell이 13%의 감소율을 보였다. 열충격 시험 후 Solar Cell은 표면 손상으로 인한 효율저하를 확인할 수 있었다. Bare Cell의 경우 표면의 손상이 없었지만, 효율이 저하된 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이는 Fill Factor 분석에 의해 경년 시 나타나는 누설전류에 의한 소모전력 증가로 효율 저하에 영향을 준 것으로 판단된다. 또한, Bare Cell보다 Solar Cell에서의 효율 감소율이 상대적으로 높게 나타난 결과는 표면 손상 및 소모 전력의 증가로 인해 Solar Cell 효율에 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 판단된다. 향후 단면 분석법 및 다양한 조건의 시험 기법을 활용하여 PV모듈 뿐 아니라 Cell 레벨에서의 불규칙한 효율 및 Fill Factor의 감소 원인을 검토하고, Solar Cell에서의 효율 저하가 가속되는 원인에 대한 대책 방안 연구가 수행되어야 할 것이다.

This paper describes characteristics and procedure of the basic design of large scale solar thermal power plant system. The evaluation is based on the operating data of CESA-I, solar central receiver plant. In order to evaluate the solar irradiation on the receiver, it is necessary to calculate the amount of thermal energy consumption at steam turbine and storage system in the STPPS. Especially, it is need to take into account of the storage and operating time to design a plant efficiently. In addition, basic design is performed for the CESA-I using the software tool of THERMOFLEX program. Based on the results, It is at lowed to use the program to investigate detail performance of each units of the STPPS by varying the operating conditions.

A control system for solar thermal power plant is the control system to coordinate the whole system's operation, including management of distributed control systems, process control for optimal operation of total system, monitoring system operating conditions and doing administrative functions. This work, as a progress report, presents the results obtained so far in building a control system for the 1MW solar thermal power plant. To make the control system, we first defined the control system's hierarchy and classified the role of each layer. Then, as the first stage of making control system, we designed and developed the sun tracking control system for heliostat.

Dynamic thermal rating (DTR) of overhead transmission lines can provide a significant increase in transmission capacity compared to the static thermal rating. However, the DTR are usually estimated by the traditional thermal model of overhead conductor that is highly dependent on the solar, wind speed and wind direction data. Consequently, the estimated DTR would be unreliable and the safety of transmission lines would be reduced when the solar and wind sensors are out of function. To address this issue, this study proposed a novel thermal model of overhead conductor based on the thermal-electric analogy theory and Markov chain. Using this thermal model, the random variation of conductor temperature can be simulated with any specific current level and ambient temperature, even if the solar and wind sensors are out of function or uninstalled. On this basis, an estimation method was proposed to determine the DTR in the form of probability. The laboratory experiments prove that the proposed method can estimate the DTR reliably without measured solar and wind data.

In this study, an ORC (Organic Rankine Cycle) is investigated for a low-temperature geothermal power generation by a simulation method. A steady-state simulation model is developed to analyze cycle's performance. The model contains a turbine, a pump, an expansion valve and heat exchangers. The turbine and pump are modelled by an isentropic efficiency. Simulations were carried out for the given heat source and sink inlet temperatures, and given flow rate that is based on the typical power plant thermal-capacitance-rate ratio. HFC-245fa is considered as a working fluid of the cycle. Simulation results, at the given secondary working fluids conditions, show that even though the power can be presented by both the evaporating temperature and the turbine inlet superheat, it depends on the evaporating temperature primarily.
