This study has been conducted in order to develop a temperature-controlled round pan diffuser with variable-openings. Flow visualization was performed to investigate the airflow patterns according to gap openings. The velocity profiles were measured using an omni-directional anemometer for two cases, i.e. a horizontal and a vertical discharge conditions. Numerical simulation also confirms there is a narrow range of gap openings where a horizontal discharge shifts to a vertical discharge. The air distribution performance index increases abruptly when the air discharge shifts from vertical to horizontal direction.

Modern people spend much time at indoor space. So, People want to make better indoor air condition. But the facade of building is made of glass to be seen urbanely, the effect of solar radiation makes indoor environment worse. This study designs an open space affected by solar radiation with 4-way cassette air-conditioner. Using numerical simulation, this paper investigates thermal comfort and ventilation performance with discharge angles $30^{\circ}$ and $45^{\circ}$. To study thermal comfort, this paper studies distribution of velocity, temperature and effective draft temperature. Also, this paper introduces concept of air age to study ventilation performance. The flow influenced by solar radiation determines thermal comfort and ventilation performance in room space. This study shows that discharge angle of 45 degree has better thermal comfort and ventilation performance than that of 30 degree.

We performed the numerical study on the comparison of thermal comport performance indices for cooling loads in the classroom when the 4-way cassette air-conditioner is mounted on the ceiling. We investigated the velocity and the temperature distribution of the classroom as with respect to the variation of the air diffusion angle of the air-conditioner. Air diffusion performance index and Predicted mean vote were used for analyzing the characteristics of the thermal comport in the classroom and comparing their values each other. From the numerical results, we knew that the thermal comport is largely affected by the air diffusion angle and velocity of the air-conditioner. And we also found out that the qualitative tendency of the distribution between Air diffusion performance index and Predicted mean vote is very similar in all occupied zone.

We performed the experimental and the numerical study on the comparison of thermal comfort performance indices for cooling loads in the lecture room for 4 cases: Fan coil unit(FCU) or 4-way cassette air-conditioner is respectively operated with the ventilation system or without. We measured the velocity, the temperature distribution and predicted mean vote(PMV) value in the lecture room for 4 different air-conditioning methods. Effective draft temperature(EDT) and PMV were investigated to analyze the characteristics of two thermal comfort indices in the lecture room and to compare their values each other. From the results we knew that there is the similarity between PMV values and EDTs when the room is air-conditioned for cooling loads. It turned out that definition of the control temperature is very important when the EDT is calculated. Finally EDT should not be used to predict the accurate thermal comfort in case that the temperature and humidity are suddenly varied and the zone affected by the solar and inner wall radiation.

아시아 주요 곡물 생산지의 경제 성장과 지표 이용 변화에 따른 인간 활동의 증가는 아시아 몬순의 경향을 변화 시켰다. 본 연구에서는 지표-해양 대비, 하층제트 기류(LLJ), 티벳 고층 및 상층 편동풍 제트 기류를 포함한 인도 여름 몬순의 중요한 구성 요소를 모사하여 지역기후 모형 (RegCM3)의 성능을 평가하였다. 3년(1994: 다우 해, 2002: 평균 해, 2002: 가뭄 해)의 비교 자료를 선택하여 RegCM3은 매년 4월 1일부터 10월 1일까지 60 km의 해상도로 적분하였다. 순환과 강수 모사 결과는 NCEP/NCAR 재해석 자료와 Global Precipitation Climatology Centre(GPCC)의 관측 자료로 검증하였다. RegCM3 모형 모사의 중요 결과는 다음과 같다. (a) LLJ 는 다소 강하였으며 아라비아해에서 다우 해에 두 개로 분할되었으나, 평균 및 가뭄 해에서는 분할되지 않았다. (b) 단일의 대형 고기압이 다우 해에 존재하였으나, 가뭄 해에는 약하고 두 개의 고기압대로 분할되었다. (c) 강수의 공간분포 모사는 대부분 인도 지역에서 GPCC의 관측 강수량과 유사하였다. (d) NIMBUS-7 SMMR 적설 자료를 이용한 민감도 실험에서 북동 및 남부 인도 반도 지역에서 주로 강수량의 감소가 나타났으며, 티벳 지역에서는 4월 적설량이 0.1m 감소하는 것으로 나타났다.

Indoor air quality becomes of a concern recently in view of human health. This study investigates the air diffusion performance and the air change efficiency of a classroom, when outdoor air is introduced in addition to the heating/cooling operation of a ceiling-mounted heat pump. A CFD analysis has been performed to investigate the effect of the discharge angle of the air jets from the heat pump for both parallel and series types of outdoor air system. It is observed that the series type creates more uniform indoor environment compared to the parallel type in general. It can be concluded the discharge angle should not be larger than 40o for the parallel type, in order not to generate thermal stratification in the room.

PMV and ADPI were numerically investigated in a large space of various ceiling height with air-conditioning systems of two type. The numerical results showed that it is small that the growth of cooling load according to ceiling height rise in a large space without windows. In case of system air-conditioner of duct type embedded in the ceiling, the air mixing effect in indoor is superior to a case installed 4way cassette type in it. For controling thermal comfort at indoor, a system air-conditioner of duct type embedded in the ceiling is little influenced according to ceiling height rise in a large space considered.
