이산화탄소는 인체에 무해하지만 인간의 신진대사와 깊은 관련이 있기 때문에 인간의 정신적 육체적 행동을 제어하는 분야에 많이 응용되고 있다. 따라서 지능형 빌딩이나 고급 공동주택 등의 실내공기를 제어하는 시스템에 적용되어 효율적으로 환기시스템을 운용하는데 사용되어져 왔다. 앞으로 이는 에너지절감과 연동되어 자동차나 가전제품 등 앞으로 점점 밀폐되어가는 구조에 사용이 늘어날 것으로 전망된다. 그러나 종래는 이산화탄소가 특정파장(4.2 um)의 적외선을 흡수하는 성질을 이용하여 Lambert law에 의해 이산화탄소의 양을 측정하였다. 따라서 가격이나 크기가 비교적 경제적이지 못한 측면이 많았다. 이와 반대로 전기화학적인 방식은 가격이나 크기의 측면에서 장점이 있었으나, 초기동작시간이나 안정성, 수명 등에서 상용화되기에는 아직 소비자가 이해하기 힘든면이 많았다. 이에 고체전해질을 이용하여 수명이나 초기시간 및 안정성을 획기적으로 개선하여 상용화가 가능하도록 만든 이산화탄소 센서를 소개하고자 한다. 이 센서는 전자회로와 결합되어 사용이 편리하도록 모듈화 하였고 이 모듈을 사용하여 "airwatch"라는 응용제품으로 판매되고 있다.

ERV system has installed in almost newly constructed residential building in Korea. Heat recovery features of ERV can be possible to decrease the heating and cooling load caused by ventilation. However, in case of the outdoor condition is favorable to control the indoor air, the heat recovery function of ERV does more harm than good in term of cooling load. In this study, the ERV with economizer cycle control for residential building is suggested and the performance of the suggested system will be analyzed using TRNSYS.

This study examines the influence of functional interior factors on the variation of indoor environment to propose proper elements for planning studyrooms. Several factors that should be included in planning stages of the rooms are discussed to apply appropriate conditions for a pilot study. Field measurements and survey were performed in actual apartment buildings. The influence of lighting, thermal and acoustical conditions on comfort levels were examined.

The purpose of this code is to relate the various controllable factors to the comfort and well-being of the people using the building, so that the requirements of the system design and installation of residential mechanical ventilation. The recommendations made in this code recognize the need to optimize the use of energy, reduce hazards and minimize effects detrimental to the environment. This code was prepared by a committee convened by SAREK. The code provides broad guidance only on certain topics. The titles of standard and code referred to in this code are listed on the reference.

To design mechanical ventilation for bathroom of apartment houses where air supply and exhaust are taken Into consideration, mock-ups of ventilation systems, widely used in bathroom of apartment houses with an area of 100$m^2$, were made and installed in a laboratory, These ventilation mock-ups were available for control of air supply and exhaust, and the size of supply openings were 40cm$\times$1cm, 40cm$\times$3cm, 40cm$\times$5cm. They were installed at five positions, spaced 40cm at a height of 25cm from the floor. and the position of exhaust fans were four corners and center Exhaust fan established each one on corner of the ceiling and one in center. As result that measure ventilation effect by each condition, size of hole that supply air is big, and ventilation effect took effect to be good establishment location is low, Also, distance of exhaust fan is far with hole that supply air, ventilation effect took effect by superior thing.

Ventilation rate and filter were selected to simultaneously satisfy indoor air quality and minimize energy consumption in residential housing. The concentrations of indoor particles were calculated using an adapted mass balance model for various ventilation airflow rates. To satisfy the guidelines for indoor concentrations of particles, the minimum ventilation rates of 1.0/h, 0.6/h and 0.4/h were required for MERV11, MERV13 and MERV14, respectively. And the fan power consumptions induced by ducts, a heat exchanger and a filter were calculated for various ventilation airflow rates. The increase in the ventilation rate caused a dramatic increase in the power consumption, but the filter performance did not have much of an effect on the fan power for ventilation airflow rates lower than 0.4/h. The use of the ventilation filter of MERV 14 was suggested at a ventilation rate of 0.4/h when the fan power consumptions were considered in addition to the indoor concentrations of particles and $CO_2$. The use of the MERV14 filter at a ventilation rate of 0.6/h could be more effective than the additional use of an indoor air cleaner when the residential housing unit was ventilated.

Modern apartment houses are constructed to be relatively airtight with a high heat insulation system to increase the energy efficiency. Such a system has a range of deleterious effects due to the insufficient ventilation. In this study, the ondol system, which is used as a heat source typical of winter in Korea, was set as the default system to evaluate the indoor heat environment according to the ventilation method, the factors of energy reduction by the ventilation system was analyzed. The experimental apparatus was used to simulate the ambient conditions for a certain constant temperature and humidity chamber. The experimental results showed that the supply water temperature higher air volume decreases with increasing supply air temperature in the following order: floor supply/exhaust > total heat exchange supply/exhaust > forced supply/exhaust. Through this study, the applicability of various ventilations could be examined.

The recent indoor air quality problem in a newly-built apartment house is resulted from the improvement of airtightness performance and the use of the building material contained harmful chemical substances. As a result, these cause indoor air quality gradually to become worse and the harmful effect on occupant health called Sick House Syndrome. The most effective solution to improve the indoor air quality is to encourage the use of green building material. However, if the house is built with general building material, ventilation with outdoor air is alternative to dilute the pollutant concentration. The purpose of this re-search is to find optimum ventilation time in a newly-built apartment house at which the ventilatoris installed. It is found that the HCHO and toluene concentrations are remarkably decreased with the elapse of ventilation time and the concentration reduction rate is increased with increment of air change rate after one hour after operating the ventilator.

In Korea, it is the law that an apartment building which consists of over 100 households must have a ventilation system installed, either natural or mechanical. The heat recovery ventilator (HRV) is great way to reduce energy consumption. In this research we confirmed that based on site's construction plan and existing diffuser form, performed purpose CFD which simulates operation in temperatures below $-5^{\circ}C$ to circumstances of installation of an HRV in an apartment. As a result of this research we found that when the diffuser's aperture area was adjusted, the distribution of air temperature and residence time of air was more equally distributed and air temperature was higher, compared to when the diffuser has an identical aperture area. We also found that we are able to increase even more air temperature and air distribution of air temperature and residence time of air was even more equally distributed when run in parallel with a splitter damper.
