Abstract

The objective of the present study is to provide data needed to decide covering method to be able to increase the thermal insulation and light transmittance efficiency of commercial greenhouse. The thermal insulation effect, PPF transmittance and quantity of condensation water were estimated in experimental tomato greenhouses covered with three types of coverings of single layer, air inflated and conventional double layers covering. The overall heat flow of air inflated double layers greenhouse was similar to that of conventional double layers greenhouse, but the temperature between covering material and thermal screen in air inflated double layers greenhouse was lower than that in conventional double layers greenhouse at the same outside temperature condition due to air leakage through the gap of roof vent. The overall heat transfer coefficients acquired by experiment that was performed in single layer and conventional double layers greenhouses were close to those obtained from model experiment. Even though the PPF transmittance of air inflated double layers greenhouse was lower than that of single layer greenhouse, which was greater than that of conventional double layers greenhouse. The quantity of condensation water on covering surface of single layer greenhouse was greater than that of air inflated double layers greenhouse due to lower covering surface temperature.

본 연구는 우리나라 상업용 온실의 보온성능 및 광투과 성능을 개선할 수 있는 피복방식을 결정하는데 필요한 자료를 제공하기 위하여 토마토 재배용 실험온실의 세 가지 피복방식에 대한 보온효과 및 광투과 특성을 평가하였으며 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 공기주입 이중피복온실과 관행 이중피복온실의 관류열손실량이 거의 비슷한 것으로 나타났으나 외부기온이 비슷할 때 피복재와 보온커튼 사이의 온도가 공기주입 이중피복온실이 더 낮게 나타난 것은 공기주입 이중피복온실의 경우 나비식 천창의 틈새로 인한 환기전열손실이 크기 때문인 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 공기주입 이중피복온실에서 나비식 천창을 사용할 경우 틈새 환기전열손실을 줄일 수 있는 대책이 수립되어야 할 것으로 판단된다. 일중피복 온실과 관행이중피복온실의 관류열전달계수에 대한 온실 실험결과와 모형실험결과를 비교한 결과 모두 비슷한 값을 나타내었다. 이러한 결과는 측정된 관류열전달계수가 타당성 있는 값임을 보여주는 것이며 향후 온실의 난방설계시 직접 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 공기주입 이중피복온실이 비록 일중피복온실보다는 광투과율이 낮으나 동일한 이중피복온실인 관행이중피복온실보다 광투과율이 높기 때문에 보온을 위해서 이중피복을 설치할 경우에 광투과율을 확보하기 위해서는 공기주입 이중피복방식을 채택하는 것이 바람직할 것으로 판단된다. 공기주입 이중피복온실에 비해 일중피복온실의 피복재 내부표면에서 발생하는 결로량이 큰 이유는 일중피복온실의 피복재 내부표면온도가 훨씬 낮기 때문에 피복재에서의 포화습도가 작아져 내부공기의 절대습도와의 차이가 증가하기 때문인 것으로 판단된다.
