In this paper, a tidal power conversion system (PCS) using seawater level differences was presented.. To verify the presented PCS, an actual lab-scale tidal power generation system was constructed. The operation of the lab-scale PCS was first modeled mathematically and was analyzed through dynamic simulation and experimental tests.

This study describes the result on PV system for evaluating the performance of small fishing boats. Photovoltaic system with 200 watts power generation facilities on the 3-ton fishing boat was carried. Load test was performed on the condition that the work lamps lit during night operations. As a result the performance can be used for more than two hours at 60 watt work lamps. The load test was performed on the condition that fishing vessels are on the cruising condition at sea. The solar power systems have been investigated as a power generation efficiency of about 36.55%. Additional tests show that the power generation efficiency is difficult to expect a maximum of 50% or more.Fuel consumption of fishing boats by installing a solar power system is reduced. Also the PV system is useful for the verification of their availability for fishing vessels as well as the satisfaction of the fishermen. The results for the durability of the photovoltaic device is acceptable, including a solar panel, controller and the performance exhibited no breakage in the harsh marine environment or failure so far. The installed PV system was confirmed that the durability with at least 2 years.

본 논문은 선박비상조명용 디지털 전원장치의 개발에 관해 연구하였으며, 비상조명용 전원장치는 비상급전시스템, 반 브리지 인버터, 형광램프 기동회로 및 마이크로프로세서 제어시스템 등으로 구성되어 있다. 실험을 통하여 기존의 아날로그형 비상급전시스템에 비해 신속하고 안정된 전력이 공급되고 있음을 확인하고, 인버터의 펄스주파수 가변에 의한 조명제어가 잘 이루어지고 있음을 확인한다.
