The rotor design is fundamental to the performance and dynamic response of the Counter-rotating marine tidal current turbine. The wind industry has seen significant advancement single rotor blade technology, offering considerable knowledge and making it easy to transfer to tidal stream energy converters. In this paper, 3D flow and performance an alysis on a 100 kW counter-rotating marine current turbine blade was carried out by using the 3-D Navier-Stokes commercial solver(ANSYS CFX-11.0) to provide more efficient design techniques to design engineers. The front and rear rotor diameter is 8m and the rotating speed is 24.72rpm. Hexahedral meshing was generated by ICEM-CFD to achieve better quality of results. The rated power and its approaching stream velocity for design are 100 kW and 2 m/s respectively. The pressure distribution on the blade's suction side tells us that the pressure becomes low at the leading edge of the airfoil as it moves from the hub to the tip.

This study rigorously examined uncertainty in the TMI-1 benchmark within the Uncertainty Analysis in Modeling (UAM) benchmark suite using the STREAM/RAST-K two-step method. It presents two pivotal advancements in computational techniques: (1) Development of an uncertainty quantification (UQ) module and a specialized library for the pin-based pointwise energy slowing-down method (PSM), and (2) Application of Principal Component Analysis (PCA) for UQ. To evaluate the new computational framework, we conducted verification tests using SCALE 6.2.2. Results demonstrated that STREAM's performance closely matched SCALE 6.2.2, with a negligible uncertainty discrepancy of ±0.0078% in TMI-1 pin cell calculations. To assess the reliability of the PSM covariance library, we performed verification tests, comparing calculations with Calvik's two-term rational approximation (EQ 2-term) covariance library. These calculations included both pin-based and fuel assembly (FA-wise) computations, encompassing hot zero-power and hot full-power operational conditions. The uncertainties calculated using both the EQ 2-term and PSM resonance treatments were consistent, showing a deviation within ±0.054%. Additionally, the data compression process yielded compression ratios of 88.210% and 92.926% for on-the-fly and data-saving approaches, respectively, in TMI fuel assembly calculations. In summary, this study provides a comprehensive explanation of the PCA process used for UQ calculations and offers valuable insights into the robustness and reliability of newly developed computational methods, supported by rigorous verification tests.

This paper introduces the PC clustering of the SIMD structure for a distributed processing of on-line contingency to assess a static security of a power system. To execute on-line contingency analysis of a large-scale power system, we need to use high-speed execution device. Therefore, we constructed PC-cluster system using PC clustering method of the SIMD structure and applied to a power system, which relatively shows high quality on the high-speed execution and has a low price. SIMD(single instruction stream, multiple data stream) is a structure that processes are controlled by one signal. The PC cluster system is consisting of 8 PCs. Each PC employs the 2 GHz Pentium 4 CPU and is connected with the others through ethernet switch based fast ethernet. Also, we consider N-1 line contingency that have high potentiality of occurrence realistically. We propose the distributed process algorithm of the SIMD structure for reducing too much execution time on the on-line N-1 line contingency analysis in the large-scale power system. And we have verified a usefulness of the proposed algorithm and the constructed PC cluster system through IEEE 39 and 118 bus system.

The variation of inflow at stream and hydrologic performance for small scale hydro power(SSHP) plants due to climate change have been studied. The model, which can predict flow duration characteristic of stream, was developed to analyze the variation of inflow caused from rainfall condition. And another model to predict hydrologic performance for SSHP plants is established. Monthly inflow data measured at Andong dam for 32 years were analyzed. The existing SSHP plant located in upstream of Andong dam was selected and analyzed hydrologic performance characteristics. The predicted results from the developed models show that the data were in good agreement with measured results of long term inflow at Andong dam and the existing SSHP plant. Inflow and ideal hydro power potential had increased greatly in recent years, however, these did not lead annual energy production increment of existing SSHP plant. As a results, it was found that the models represented in this study can be used to predict the primary design specifications and inflow of SSHP plants effectively.

동영상 어댑테이션 시스템은 네트워크 제약, 클라이언트 제약 등을 만족하면서, 동영상의 품질이 최대가 되도록 동영상을 변환해 주는 시스템을 말한다. 본 논문에서는 정적으로 중간 동영상과 품질측정에 관한 정보를 생성해두는 준-동적 어댑테이션 시스템을 제안한다. 중간 동영상은 원본 동영상의 해상도를 반으로 줄여가며 생성되어, 서버에 저장된다. 품질 측정에 관한 정보는 프레임 율 별 부드러운 정도의 수치와, 픽셀 당 비트 량 별 선명한 정도의 수치에 대한 테이블을 정적으로 생성해 둔 것이다. 이런 중간 결과물들은 클라이언트에서의 서비스 품질을 고려하며 동적으로 동영상을 변환 할 때 가능한 빠르게 동영상 변환이 수행될 수 있도록 해준다. 실험 결과 제안된 어댑테이션 시스템은 기존의 동적 어댑테이션 시스템에 비해 약 30배정도 빠르게 어댑테이션을 수행하는 반면, 약 2%정도의 품질 저하가 있었고 중간동영상을 저장하기 위한 추가적인 서버공간이 필요하다는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다.

분산 센서 네트워크에서 대용량 스트림 데이타를 제한된 네트워크, 전력, 프로세서를 이용하여 모든 센서 데이타를 전송하고 분석하는 것은 어렵고 바람직하지 않다. 그러므로 연속적으로 입력되는 데이타를 사전에 분류하여 특성에 따라 선택적으로 데이타를 처리하는 데이타 분류 기법이 요구된다. 이 논문에서는 다차원 센서에서 주기적으로 수집되는 스트림 데이타를 슬라이딩 윈도우 단위로 데이타를 분류하는 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법은 전처리 단계와 분류단계로 구성된다. 전처리 단계는 다변량 스트림 데이타를 포함한 각 슬라이딩 윈도우 입력에 대해 데이타의 변화 특성에 따라 문자 기호를 이용하여 다양한 이산적 문자열 데이타 집합으로 변환한다. 분류단계는 각 윈도우마다 생성된 이산적 문자열 데이타를 분류하기 위해 표준 문서 분류 알고리즘을 이용하였다. 실험을 위해 우리는 Supervised 학습(베이지안 분류기, SVM)과 Unsupervised 학습(Jaccard, TFIDF, Jaro, Jaro Winkler) 알고리즘을 비교하고 평가하였다. 실험결과 SVM과 TFIDF 기법이 우수한 결과를 보였으며, 특히 속성간의 상관 정도와 인접한 각 문자 기호를 연결한 n-gram방식을 함께 고려하였을 때 높은 정확도를 보였다.

This study analyzed the linkage characteristics between road runoff and the nearest streams in mountain regions using a discriminant analysis. The road-to-stream linkage is an important characteristic to evaluate whether the contaminant on road surface is transported directly into the nearby channel system. This study evaluated a total of 51 drainage outlets of mountain roads near the Soyanggang Dam. The linkage between road and stream, slope and width of road, and other information necessary for the discriminant analysis have been collected by in situ investigation and by analyzing the Digital Elevation Model. Finally, as independent variables in the discriminant analysis, the contributing road representing the road characteristics (similar to the runoff from the road drainage outlet) and the distance and slope of the connecting channel between road and nearest stream were selected. Among these three, the distance was found to have the highest discriminant power, the contributing road the lowest. Using the discriminant function derived, 40 out of 51 cases (78.4%) were correctly discriminated and the remaining 11 cases (21.6%) were wrongly discriminated. Reasons of wrongly discriminated cases were mainly due to change in drainage outlet direction, excessive runoff, change in road-to-stream path, etc. This result also indicates that the road-to-stream linkage can be introduced or prohibited by exactly the same way.

All of the hydraulic spool valves adopt radially grooved spools to avoid hydraulic locking. In this paper, a commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code, FLUENT is used to investigate the accurate Poiseuille flow characteristics inside single groove. The stream lines, velocity and pressure distributions are obtained for various groove widths, depths and shapes. The stream lines are highly affected by groove shape and there occurred large vortexes inside groove beyond a certain ratio of groove width to depth. Especially the U shaped groove restrains the occurrence of vortex. Therefore the numerical method adopted in this paper can be use in optimum designing of multi-grooved hydraulic spool valves.

Exergetic and thermoeconomic analysis were performed for a 500-MW combined cycle plant and a 137-MW steam power plant without decomposition of exergy stream of matter into thermal and mechanical exergies. The calculated costs of electricity are almost same within 0.5% as those obtained by the thermoeconomic method with decomposition of exergy into thermal and mechanical exergies of the combined cycle plant. However for the gas-turbine cogeneration plant having different kinds of products. the difference in the unit costs of products, obtained from the two methodologies is about 2%. Such outcome indicates that the level at which the cost balances are formulated does not affect the result of thermoeconomic analysis, that is somewhat contradictory to that concluded previously.

This paper aims to present the design and performance evaluation of a counter-rotating tidal turbine using CFD and to compare its performance with single rotor. The device scale is 10kW and the rotating part consists of two rotors which rotate in opposite direction. Compared with conventional single rotor, the counter-rotating system shows higher power efficiency at high stream velocity but lower efficiency at low stream velocity. The added counter-rotated rotor together helps improve the energy absorption capacity but has influence on the upstream rotor that reduces its performance. In terms of power capture, the designed counter-rotating tidal turbine is more advantageous in high speed tidal condition.
