In Korea, five major ports have been designated as sulfur oxide emission control areas to reduce air pollutant emissions, in accordance with Article 10 of the “Special Act on Port Air Quality” and Article 32 of the “Ship Pollution Prevention Regulations”. As regulations against vesseloriginated air pollutants (such as PM, CO2, NOx, and SOx) have been strengthened, the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries(MOF) enacted rules that newly built public ships should adopt eco-friendly propulsion systems. However, particularly in diesel–electric hybrid propulsion systems,the demand for precise control schemes continues to grow as the fuel saving rate significantly varies depending on the control strategy applied. The conventional Power Take In–Power Take Off(PTI–PTO) mode control adopts a rule-based strategy, but this strategy is applied only in the low-load range and PTI mode; thus, an additional method is required to determine the optimal fuel consumption point. The proposed control method is designed to optimize fuel consumption by applying the equivalent consumption minimization strategy(ECMS) to the PTI–PTO mode by considering the characteristics of the specific fuel oil consumption(SFOC) of the engine in a diesel–electric hybrid propulsion system. To apply this method, a specific fishing vessel model operating on the Korean coast was selected to simulate the load operation environment of the ship. In this study, a 10.2% reduction was achieved in the MATLAB/SimDrive and SimElectric simulation by comparing the fuel consumption and CO2 emissions of the ship to which the conventional rule-based strategy was applied and that to which the ECMS was applied.

In this study, We have taken LED lamps which are widely used recently, applied it to training ship's cabin and lounge, cafeteria, engine control room and analyzed the power consumption and illumination with existing fluorescent. Replacing 40W, 20W of fluorescents with 22W, 11W of same number of LED lamps, It showed 45% of power consumption savings and resulted to more than 20% of illumination improvement. If applied to all areas of the ship, It would surely contribute to great amount of energy savings and illumination improvement.

해양에너지를 비롯한 신재생에너지를 이용한 분산형 발전시스템 설계의 기초자료로 활용하기 위해 본 연구에서는 도서 주민의 전력소비량을 실측 분석하고 시기별 전력소비 패턴을 개발하였다. 실측조사는 남해안에 위치한 곤리도의 5가구를 대상으로 2010년 10월부터 2012년 2월까지 수행되었다. 월평균 전력소비량은 가구에 따라 12월 혹은 1월에 최대값이 발생하였다. 가구별 월간 전력소비량은 H가구가 J가구보다 2~3배 많았지만 가구별 1인당 월평균 전력소비량은 J가구가 H가구보다 10~30% 가량 많은 것으로 조사되었다. 시각별 전력소비 패턴을 개발한 결과 여름철에는 20시에서 자정 사이에 최대 전력소비가 발생하고, 겨울철은 여름철에 비하여 하루 동안의 전력소비 변화는 완만하지만 18시 이후 자정까지의 시간대에 전력소비가 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 가구별 주중과 주말의 전력소비 패턴은 매우 유사한 것으로 나타났다.
