The emergency evacuation support system provides a safe means of evacuation by preventing the inflow of smoke through the formation of a smoke shield curtain in fire situations and pressurizing fresh air to the inside of the smoke shield curtain. In this study, numerical analysis was performed to examine the effects of the hole size on the flow inside the smoke curtain. As the air supply size decreased, the flow rate through the air supply was formed relatively uniformly from the inlet to the outlet length of the emergency support system. In addition, the size of the air supply hole was more than 20 mm, the flow rate was very low near the outlet, so the air supply hole size should be smaller than 20 mm. In addition, the minor loss of the air supply hole was calculated to be K = 1.5 from the numerical results. Therefore, the proper design of an emergency evacuation support system is possible using the flow characteristics according to the size and minor loss of the air supply hole.

바닥급기 공조시스템은 재실자에게 신선외기를 효과적으로 공급하고 온열환경을 효과적으로 제공하기 위한 새로운 수단으로 시도되고 있다. 그러나 급기구가 인체에 너무 가까이 위치할 경우, 부분적인 열구배에 의한 불쾌감을 유발할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 바닥급기 공조시스템이 설치된 공간내의 온도 및 기류분포 등의 온열환경을 측정하였고 적외선 카메라를 이용하여 급기구에 의한 인체 표면 온도를 측정하여 열적 쾌적성에 미치는 영향에 관하여 고찰하였다.

축열 공조방식 중 현재 가장 많이 보급되고 있는 방식은 빙축열 방식과 수축열 방식이다. 본래 축열식 공조는 열원 용량을 감소하고, 값싼 심야전력을 통해서 운전비용(running cost)의 절감을 목적으로 하지만, 열을 저장하기 위한 "축열조"가 필요하므로, 필연적으로 초기투자비(intial cost)의 증가를 동반하며, 기존의 건물에는 쉽게 적용할 수 없는 등의 문제점이 있다. 따라서 축열을 위한 초기비용을 증가시키지 않는 축열식 공조방식으로서 건축물 자체가 가지는 높은 열용량에 착안하여 구조체 축열에 관한 연구가 최근 활성화되고 있다. 구조체 축열은 건축물 그 자체를 축열 매체로 이용하기 때문에 별도의 축열조가 필요 없고, 구조체 로부터의 "복사"형태로 거주영역에 직접적으로 작용하여 실내의 온열환경을 향상시킬 수 있다. 이 때문에 2차측 공조기의 용량을 절감시킬 수 있고, 축열 부위에서의 열반송이 필요없는 등, 구조체 축열 시스템은 기존의 빙축열과 수축열 방식에서는 없는 여러가지 장점을 가지고 있다. 구조체 축열 공조시스템은 기존의 공조시스템 중에서 급기구 부위만을 변경하여 주간에서 종래의 공조시스템과 같이 실내로 공조 공기를 급기하고, 야간에는 급기구에 설치된 댐퍼를 조절하여 천정면으로 공조 공기를 급기함으로써 구조체에 열을 축열시키는 방안이다. 본 시스템은 기존의 설비시스템을 이용하여 건축물의 구조체를 축열, 공조개시전 및 주간의 부하를 대폭 줄임으로써 에너지를 절감시킬 수 있다는 장점을 갖는다. 따라서 구조체 축열 공조시스템은 "지구환경 유지.전력부하 평준화.안전성.에너지 절약.비용절감.쾌적성"의 모든 조건을 만족시키는 유력한 차세대 공조 방식이 될 것으로 판단되며, 본 보에서는 공기순환형 구조체 축열시스템을 소개하고자 한다.

본 연구에서는 실제 조건과 유사하게 모사된 사무실 공간을 대상으로 냉방시 급기 위치에 따른 기온, 기류속도, 복사온도를 측정하여 열환경을 평가하였다. 사무실 공간은 실제의 조건과 유사하게 인체, 조명, 사무기기의 부하를 전기히터로 모사했으며, 외기부하는 벽체에 설치된 열교환기를 통과하는 부동액의 온도를 제어함으로써 모사하였다. 실험 결과 냉방 조건에서는 바닥급기 방식의 경우 평균온도가 천장급기에 비해 낮아 에너지 절약 측면에서 유리함을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 천장급기에 비해 수직온도차가 크고 급기구 근처에서는 수직온도차에 의한 불쾌감과 빠른 기류속도에 의한 드래프트의 위험이 있는 것으로 나타났다.

개방형 사무실 건물에서, 총 환기량이 적정할지라도 국부적으로 환기가 부족하거나 또는 과다한 작업공간들이 존재할 수 있다. 이것은 환기시스템을 설계할 때 작업공간의 배치와 관련된 정보를 활용하지 않기 때문이다. 모든 작업공간이 충분히 환기될 수 있도록 하기 위해서는 급기구나 배기구 그릴의 형태나 배치선정 등과 같은 다 양한 설계변수들이 작업공간의 HVAC 시스템의 성능에 미치는 영향을 파악하여야 한다. 본 원고는 최근 수행된 작업공간의 환기 성능에 관한 연구결과를 요약한 것이다.

The mock-ups of ventilation system, which has been widely adopted for the bathroom with the area of 100 $m^2$ apartment housing, were established and tested to design mechanical ventilation for apartment housing bathroom where air supply exhaust are relatively important. These ventilation mock-ups were capable of controlling intake and exhaust, which has the size of supply openings as 40cm${\times}$1cm, 40cm${\times}$3cm, 40cm${\times}$5cm. They were established at five locations, spaced 40cm from each other at a height of 25cm from the floor. The exhaust fans were located at four corners and center of the ceiling. The results this ventilation effect measurement by different condition are showing that when the size of air supply is bigger and the location is lower, the effect of ventilation was relatively higher. In addition, as the distance between exhaust fan and air supply was farther, the ventilation effect were getting highly efficient.

The smoke removal rate from a room with an opening was investigated for different smoke control systems by using the large eddy simulation turbulence model of the Fire Dynamics Simulator. The decreasing rate of the particles randomly distributed in the 2m X 2m X 2.4m room was com-pared for the ventilation system, pressurization system and extraction system, and for the air flowrate of the ventilation system. Difference in the smoke removal rate among the three smoke control systems was small when the opening was closed. The pressurization system showed less smoke removal rate than the other two systems when the opening existed, and hence is not recommended for subway stations with large openings. It was also shown that a less flowrate in the ventilation system leads to a much longer smoke removal time.

Hydrogen has reduced greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, the main cause of global warming, and is emerging as an eco-friendly energy source for ships. Hydrogen is a substance with a lower flammability limit (LFL) of 4 to 75% and a high risk of explosion. To be used for ships, it must be sufficiently safe against leaks. In this study, we analyzed the effect of changes in the area of the air inlet / vent port on the ventilation performance when hydrogen leaks occur in the hydrogen tank storage room. The area of the air inlet / vent port is 1A = 740 mm × 740 mm, and the size and position can be easily changed on the surface of the storage chamber. Using ANSYS CFX ver 18.1, which is a CFD commercial software, the area of the air inlet / vent port was changed to 1A, 2A, 3A, and 5A, and the hydrogen mole fraction in the storage chamber when the area changed was analyzed. Consequently, the increase in the area of the air inlet port further reduced the concentration of the leaked hydrogen as compared with that of the vent port, and improved the ventilation performance of at least 2A or more from the single air inlet port. As the area of the air inlet port increased, hydrogen was uniformly stratified at the upper part of the storage chamber, but was out of the LFL range. However, simply increasing the area of the vent port inadequately affected the ventilation performance.

Indoor air quality has become increasingly important with the increase in time spent in residential environments, impact of external fine dust, yellow dust, and the post-COVID 19 pandemic. Residential mechanical ventilation plays a key role in addressing indoor air quality. The legal standard for residential air changes per hour in Korea is 0.5 ACH. However, there are no standards for the location of supply and return vents. This study atempts to analyze the impact of ventilation performance based on the location of supply and return vents. An experiment was conducted using the CO₂ tracer gas concentration decay method in a mock-up house set inside a large chamber to minimize external influences. The experimental results indicated that the commonly used combination of 2 supply and 2 return vents in living room spaces had a lower mean age of air than the combination of 1 supply and 2 return vents. Using multiple supply and return vents had lower mean age of air than using just 1 supply and 1 return vent.

Smoke control in il space 10 m${\times}$3 m floor and 5.4 m high around the stairway of a subway station platform was simulated by using FDS to investigate problems of smoke control in Daegue subway stations. Distributions of temperature and smoke particles, and variation of the number of particles with time for a 200 ㎾ polyurethane fire were compared. It was shown that the purge system fails to remove smoke efficiently and that the extraction system has the highest perfor-mance among the three smoke control systems for the given situations. Simply switching the purge system into extraction mode might improve much the smoke removal performance.
