Abstract: A concentration of a fuel supplied to a fuel cell and a heat exchange rate of a heat exchanger are controlled simultaneously in order to maintain a temperature of fuel cell stack and a diluted fuel concentration that is supplied to the fuel cell stack in a target level. Further, by appropriately responding to an exterior temperature changes or unexpected fuel cell performance changes, it is possible to improve a system efficiency and stability of fuel cell operation and to regulate the fuel concentration quickly and accurately compared to a prior sensor-less concentration controller.

Abstract: A coating method for coating a crucible and a quartz crucible for growing a silicon crystal are provided. In the coating method, a bubble-free quartz layer which is 80 ?m to 4 mm thick is formed on an inner surface of a crucible for growing a silicon crystal, and the surface of the bubble-free quartz layer is covered with alkaline earth hydroxide, following which heating is performed to a temperature at which the surface becomes devitrified. The surface may be covered by immersing the inner surface in a solution of the alkaline earth hydroxide. The heating may be performed before the crucible for growing silicon crystal is filled with a solid raw material to be melted.

Abstract: A demand response determination apparatus and a demand response determination method thereof are provided. The demand response determination apparatus connects to an electric power system via a network. The demand response determination apparatus receives power consumption information from the electric power system and decides a power consumption mode of the electric power system according to the power consumption information. The demand response determination apparatus calculates demanded power according to the power consumption mode and determines whether the demanded power exceeds a power consumption threshold. The demand response determination apparatus informs the electric power system to unload electric power equipment when the demanded power exceeds the power consumption threshold.
