The dominant heating system used in Korean residential apartment buildings is a hydronic radiant floor heating system, known as the Ondol system. The most common control strategy applied to this traditional hydronic radiant system is a simple on-off control that intermittently supplies "hot water of a fixed temperature" at a "constant flow rate" to each room. However, the current problems with the aforementioned control are as follows: (1) since the simple on-off control is usually based on a one point measured temperature (a signal from a thermostat installed in a living room) in each dwelling unit, heating energy use for unoccupied rooms as well as a difference in temperatures between spaces (master bedroom, living room, bedroom1, bedroom2) can occur occasionally. (2) the most widely used residential water splitter has static valves, and is thus not able to change the flow rate to each room depending on the space heating load. In other words, the ratio of flow rates to rooms is fixed after construction, resulting in over- or under-heating and an improper use of energy. The aim of this paper is therefore to investigate the differences in the system's performance between control strategies in terms of the flow rate control and sensor location. It is shown that energy savings of control strategies are strongly influenced by occupant schedule.

One of the core technology in WDM-PON system is a generation and modulation technique of the optical source in Optical Network Unit (ONU). In this paper, we propose a reflective semiconductor optical amplifier (RSOA) as a modulator in WDM-PON system. Its performance is analyzed by simulation and actual experimentation. Using RSOA in WDM-PON system as a modulator, it obtains higher gain compared to the conventional SOA due to the double pass gain effect. Furthermore RSOA can provide high gain with comparatively low input power. This is very helpful when we set up the actually system because using lower input power, it can reduce the load of the driving circuit which makes very economical module structure. Therefore, when RSOA is used as a modulator, not only it gives noise suppression effect, but also provides certain amount of gain as well. In addition, comparing with conventional SOA which gives fairly large insertion loss, RSOA can provides more important merits.

광선추적법(ray tracing)은 빛의 반사, 투과 등을 사실적으로 표현할 수 있는 대표적인 전역조명(global illumination) 기술이지만, 복잡한 계산과정으로 인해 실시간 활용에는 많은 제약이 존재한다. 이런 문제를 해결하기 위해 최근에는 GPU(Graphics Processing Unit) 기반의 광선추적법 알고리즘이 활발하게 개발되고 있으며, 본 논문에서는 J. Purcell 등이 제안한 광선추적법 기법을 구현하였다. 그리고 구현된 알고리즘을 인터렉티브 응용분야에 활용하기 위해 렌더링 성능을 개선하는 두가지 방법을 적용하였다. 먼저, 그래픽스 하드웨어에서 지원하는 래스터라이제이션(rasterization)을 적용해 초기 광선의 교차점을 효과적으로 구했다. 또한 대상 물체를 가속화(acceleration) 구조로 구성하여 광선과 물체간의 교차연산에 소요되는 계산시간을 단축하였다. GPU 기반의 광선추적법 렌더링에서 다양한 성능 개선 알고리즘을 적용하여 향상된 렌더링 결과를 구체적으로 분석한 기존 연구가 비교적 적었으며, 본 논문에서는 각 과정에 따른 개선 결과를 제시하였다. 구현된 렌더러와 GPU 기반의 환경 맵을 비교하였으며 이동형 개인 컴퓨터와 무선 센싱 장비를 이용한 무선 원격 렌더링 시스템을 구현하였다. 제안된 시스템은 실시간 합성, 증강현실(augmented reality), 가상현실 등의 다양한 분야에서 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

The package loading process of the lumbering industry is an operation that after a pair of workers bind three or six lumbers into one unit and cut both ends of the lumbers, transports the weight cargo of 30-50kg by one meter, pack and load at a height of 1.2 meters. This package loading process causes lots of noise and wood dust when workers carry out the heavy work as the above. Therefore we developed the monolithic both ends cutting package loading equipment in order to prevent from getting musculoskeletal disease. An loading bar working system of this equipment is improved from pneumatic pressure system to oil pressure system, furnished the newly designed flow dividers, and developed the new system that a both end array is loaded identically. Also we developed the safety equipment of loading bar in order to prevent workers mistake and overload from malfunction during the package loading process. The main cause of job evasion on working place could be solved by preventing the musculoskeletal disease and improving the working environments.

Alternative energy sources such as renewable energy like solar power systems, wind power systems, or fuel cell power systems has been the rising issue in the electrical power system. This paper discusses an economic study analysis of fuel cells in the korean electricity market. It includes the basic concept of a fuel cell and the korean electricity market. It also describes the need of renewable energy and how the fuel cell is connected with the local grid. This paper shows the impact of production and recovering thermal energy of a grid-connected fuel cell power system. The profit maximization approach has been structured including electrical power trade with the local grid and heat trade within the micro-grid. The strategies are evaluated using a local load that uses electric and thermal power which has different patterns between summer and winter periods. The solution algorithm is not newly developed one, but is solved by an application called GAMS. Results indicate the need and usefulness of a fuel cell power system.

As electricity consumption is increasing rapidly these days, an urgent. need exists to minimize consumption through smart and intelligent ways in order to prevent a future energy crisis. For this purpose, development of an intelligent peak power management system should be required. As the number of appliances and consumer electrical devices increase, power consumption in unit business tends to grow. Generally, electricity consumption can be minimized using a peak power management system capable of. effectively controlling the load power by continuously monitoring the power. In this work, a peak power management system which consists of arduino microprocessor equipped with ethernet and Zigbee shield is presented. To verify the feasibility of the proposed scheme, laboratory-scale experiments are carried out.

The purpose of this study was to analyse the runoff characteristics of non-point pollution sources in an urban watershed and determine the effectiveness of newly installed riverwater treatment system to reduce water pollution caused by storm runoff in the urban watershed. The results of this study showed that the levels of BOD5 and suspended solid were highly influenced by first-flush effect and the pollutant load of those two parameters were also very high in the urban watershed. Meanwhile, the effectiveness of riverwater treatment system to reduce the levels of BOD5 and suspended solid was relatively high, but those to reduce the levels of T-N and T-P was low, which needs some additional unit treatment process such as filtration and coagulation. Nonetheless, the riverwater treatment system tested was relatively simple in installation and operation, effective in removing many water pollutants and, most importantly, does not require much space as other treatment systems, so it could be an attractive alternative option to reduce riverwater pollution caused by storm runoff in urban watersheds.

This paper describes the design and implementation of a low cost inertial navigation system(INS) using an inertial measurement unit(IMU), a digital compass, GPS, and an embedded system. The system has been developed for a transporter that load and unload ship blocks in a shipbuilding yard. When the transporter would move from place to place, they would periodically pass under obstructions that would obscure the GPS signal. This increases the error when estimating the position. Thus the INS has been used to improve position accuracy. INS is also capable of providing continuous estimates of the transporter's position and orientation. Even though IMU is typically very expensive, this INS is made of "low cost" components and the indirect Kalman filtering algorithm.
