The purpose of this study was to assess the sustainability of laundry practices among Korean households in comparison with European households. A total of 329 responses were collected through an online survey and analyzed using SPSS. Detergent dosing, use of fabric softener, prewashing, rinsing, washing programs, and washing temperatures of Korean households were not optimal for sustainability. Only 11.2% of respondents followed dosage instructions while the majority based on load size. Use of fabric enhancer, prewashing, and rinsing were frequent. Cotton 40℃ was the most frequently used program (81.5%) while eco and cold wash programs were among the least (1.5%). In terms of laundry sorting, load size, drying, and ironing, more sustainable actions were reported. Laundry was often sorted by color, machines were commonly filled, and clothes tended to be air-dried and not excessively ironed. Gender was the primary socio-demographic factor denoting sustainable habits, with males being more attentive to instructions and care labels than females. European households, however, were more sustainable in all areas except for frequent ironing, and education level and employment status were significant factors affecting sustainable practices.

No matter how low it might be, noise from home appliances in indoor environment cause displeasure for residents as it is produced nearby. Electronic goods including vacuum cleaner and washing machine generate high frequency noise, which interrupts TV-watching or conversations and cause noises between floors in apartment houses. In particular, refrigerators make constant noise late at night, hampering the study for exams and causing sleeplessness. Korea, despite the government's efforts to promote low-noise goods based on the noise test by corporation, there is a lack of standardization in the test method, test condition and measuring equipments. This is a major reason that lowers the reliability of low-noise products. At present, low-noise home appliances are certified with eco labeling in the nation but, only 7 brands of refrigerators, 4 brands of washing machines and 97 brands of air-conditioners obtained certification as of august, 2011. In addition, none of Kimchi-refrigerator and vacuum cleaner brands were approved as low-noise home appliances. This shows Korea's relatively underdeveloped market for low-noise products, which, in part, is because of the difficulties companies face in being certified with eco labeling as they should satisfy various requirements such as power-saving and eco-friendly design besides low-noise features. As a result, low-noise labeling for home appliances should be established for the revised noise and vibration management law and the study was carried out to establish low-noise labeling system for major noise sources including vacuum cleaner, washing machine, air-conditioner and refrigerator.

세탁기, 냉장고 등의 가전제품에 탑재되는 8-bit MCU용 C 컴파일러는 소프트웨어 실행 속도를 높이기 위해 표준 C 언어 규칙을 따르지 않고 컴파일을 수행할 수 있다. 개발자가 일반 C 컴파일러와 8-bit MCU용 C 컴파일러의 차이를 정확하게 이해하지 못할 경우 표준 C 언어 환경에서는 발생하지 않으나 8-bit MCU를 사용하는 내장형 시스템에서는 발생하는 버그를 야기할 수 있으며 이런 버그는 표준 C언어 환경을 가정하는 버그 검출 도구로는 찾기 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 표준 C 정수 확장 규칙을 따르지 않는 8-bit MCU용 컴파일러를 사용할 때 발생하는 정수 확장 버그를 소개하고 정수 확장 버그를 탐지하기 위한 다섯 종류의 버그 패턴을 제안한다. 정수 확장 버그 패턴 검출 도구를 개발하여 LG전자 세탁기 소프트웨어를 분석한 결과 컴파일러 옵션을 잘못 선택한 경우 발생하는 27개의 정수 확장 버그를 발견하였다.

A Single phase induction motor is the predominant fractional horsepower power rated, extensively used in domestic and industrial application. For example, these motors provide the motive power to washing machines, fans, refrigerators, etc. In this paper, single phase induction motor input current was detected by a small current transformer and determined TRIAC gate signal by using op-amp analog circuit. The soft-start strategy is based on limited auxiliary current angle during starting period in the closed-loop control. The Simulation and experimental result show the motor's starting characteristics of the proposal starting system and are compared with centrifugal switch starting motor.

본 논문에서는 세탁기의 DD Moter로 사용되고 있는 BLDCM을 대신하여 세탁기의 부하에 따른 세탁모드와 탈수모드의 특징에 만족시키는 외전형 SRM을 설계하였다. 이와 같은 특징을 고려하여 외전형 SRM의 극 조합으로 12/8, 18/12, 36/24 극에 대해 설계하고 유한요소해석법을 통해 외전형 SRM의 특성을 해석하였다. 본 논문에서는 세탁기용 전동기에 알맞은 구조로 18/12극이 적절한 것으로 평가되었다.

SRM (Switched Reluctance Motor) has not been put into practical use since it has been developed in mid 19th centuries, but the switching element using semi-conductor was developed in 1950's which made possible to produce small size staffing motors. The research activities have been lively conducted regarding SRM since 1960's, nowadays, more research activities are being carried out focusing on developing small home appliances such as vacuum cleaners and washing machines. This thesis explains the study of controller design applied to SRM concept. This controller executes controller algorithms via $\mu$ - processor to increase stability and precise measurement, and VHDL (Very high speed integrated circuit Hardware Description Language) is designed to generate SRM driving signal.

The waste home appliances including television sets, refrigerators, washing machines and air conditioners have increasingly received environmental concerns in Taiwan. In light of the enforcement of Waste Disposal Act (WDA), the Taiwan Environmental Protection Administration (EPA) has certified 60 recycling/storage facilities and given permission for qualified companies to build six treatment plants around the island. Now the recycling and well treatment home appliances are estimated to be 3,342,369 units until May 31, 2001. This paper describes the present status of waste home appliance recycle and its treatment in Taiwan. The principle guidelines and policies regarding recycling, resource recovery and environmental concerns are presented.

A single phase induction motor (SPIM) rated in fractional horsepower is widely used in home and industrial equipment: washing machines, fans, refrigerators, etc. In this paper, authors present the experimental results of the SPIM under controlling of currents of main and auxiliary windings by using a one-chip micro stator(OMS). This new starting method is developed to replace the conventional starting device consisted with a mechanical switch and a capacitor. In mentioned method, the soft-starting of SPIM is simply implemented and higher efficiency is obtained in comparison with conventional condenser type SPIM.

A single phase induction motor is predominant in fractional horsepower rating and is widely used in home and industrial equipment. For example, these motors provide the motive power to washing machines, fans, refrigerators, etc. In this paper has presented the design and implementation of a microcontroller software - based self - starting SPIM. The control algorithm used in the experimentation employed simple control strategies which enabled a single chip programmable microcontroller to execute both the self - starting and self - detecting control of SPIM with relatively simplified hardware.
