Abstract
This study was designed to examine the performance of an aspirated radiation shield(ARS), which was made at the investigator's lab and characterized by relatively easier making and lower costs based on survey data and reports on errors in its measurements of temperature and relative humidity. The findings were summarized as follows: the ARS and the Jinju weather station made measurements and recorded the range of maximum, average, and minimum temperature at $2.0{\sim}34.1^{\circ}C$, $-6.1{\sim}22.2^{\circ}C$, $-14.0{\sim}15.1^{\circ}C$ and $0.4{\sim}31.5^{\circ}C$, $-5.8{\sim}22.0^{\circ}C$, $-14.1{\sim}16.3^{\circ}C$, respectively. There were no big differences in temperature measurements between the two institutions except that the lowest and highest point of maximum temperature was higher on the campus by $1.6^{\circ}C$ and $2.6^{\circ}C$, respectively. The measurements of ARS were tested against those of a standard thermometer. The results show that the temperature measured by ARS was lower by $-2.0^{\circ}C$ or higher by $1.8^{\circ}C$ than the temperature measured by a standard thermometer. The analysis results of its correlations with a standard thermometer reveal that the coefficient of determination was 0.99. Temperature was compared between fans and no fans, and the results show that maximum, average, and minimum temperature was higher overall with no fans by $0.5{\sim}7.6^{\circ}C$, $0.3{\sim}4.6^{\circ}C$ and $0.5{\sim}3.9^{\circ}C$, respectively. The daily average relative humidity measurements were compared between ARS and the weather station of Jinju, and the results show that the measurements of ARS were a little bit higher than those of the Jinju weather station. The measurements on June 27, July 26 and 29, and August 20 were relatively higher by 5.7%, 5.2%, 9.1%, and 5.8%, respectively, but differences in the monthly average between the two institutions were trivial at 2.0~3.0%. Relative humidity was in the range of -3.98~+7.78% overall based on measurements with ARS and Assman's psychometer. The study analyzed correlations in relative humidity between the measurements of the Jinju weather station and those of Assman's psychometer and found high correlations between them with the coefficient of determination at 0.94 and 0.97, respectively.
본 연구에서는 본 연구실에서 자체적으로 제작한 비교적 제작이 간편하고 비용이 저렴한 강제 흡출식 복사선차폐장치(Aspirated Radiation Shield; ARS)로 측정한 실측 데이터를 바탕으로 장치의 성능과 온도 및 상대습도의 측정오차에 대하여 보고하고자 연구를 수행하였다. 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. ARS장치와 진주기상대에서 측정한 최대, 평균 및 최저온도의 범위는 각각 $2.0{\sim}34.1^{\circ}C$ 및 $0.4{\sim}31.5^{\circ}C$, $-6.1{\sim}22.2^{\circ}C$ 및 $-5.8{\sim}22.0^{\circ}C$, $-14.1{\sim}16.3^{\circ}C$ 및 $-14.0{\sim}15.1^{\circ}C$범위로 나타났다. 최대기온의 최저 및 최고온도에서 각각 $1.6^{\circ}C$ 및 $2.6^{\circ}C$정도 교내에서 측정한 값이 약간 높게 나타난 것을 제외하면, 두 기관에서 측정한 온도에 큰 차이가 없는 것을 알 수 있었다. 표준온도계의 측정값과 검증한 결과, ARS장치로 측정한 온도가 표준온도계에 비해 $-2.0^{\circ}C$정도 낮거나 $1.8^{\circ}C$보다 높게 나타나났다. 표준온도계와 상관분석 한 결과, 결정계수는 0.99정도였다. 팬의 유무에 따른 온도의 경우, 전체적으로 팬이 없는 경우가 최고, 평균 및 최저온도가 각각 $0.5{\sim}7.6^{\circ}C$, $0.3{\sim}4.6^{\circ}C$ 및 $0.5{\sim}3.9^{\circ}C$정도 높게 나타났다. 그리고 ARS장치와 진주기상대에서 측정한 일평균 상대습도는 전체적으로 ARS장치로 측정한 값이 약간 높은 경향이 있고, 특히 상대적으로 6월 27일, 7월 26일, 29일, 8월 20일에 측정한 값이 각각 5.7%, 5.2%, 9.1% 및 5.8%정도로 다소 높게 나타났지만, 두 기관의 월별 평균치는 2.0~3.0%정도로 미미한 수준이었다. 또한 ARS장치와 아스만 통풍습도계로 측정한 상대습도는 전체적으로 -3.98~+7.78%정도의 범위 내에 있는 것으로 나타났다. 진주기상대와 아스만 통풍습도계로 측정한 상대습도를 상관분석 결과, 결정계수가 각각 0.94 및 0.97정도로써 높은 상관관계를 보였다.
