This paper highlights the home concentrate device(HCD) that integrates the data reading and display of the six types of meters (water, hot water, heating, cooling, gas and electricity) used in Korean residential areas. Unlike the conventional system which utilizes single MCU, the developed system uses two MCUs for one MCU to gather the meter readings and for the other MCU to communicate to the server computer. Hard ware design, communication protocols, LCD design and program structures are discussed and the test results are shown in this paper. With the implementation of integrated meter reading, the developed system can increase the popularity of automatic meter reading(AMR) with its better scalability, pricing, installation fee, maintenance and faster response.

As the global warming due to greenhouse effect has become serious problem, it is necessary to introduce the technology, for instance, such as diversity or saving of energy to reduce the use of fossil fuel. The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics on materials of absorption plate, unpowered and minimum use of power in cooling and heating combined device. As the results, it was observed that, in case of summer, since temperature of absorption device of solar heat(ADSH) was lower than that of no ADSH, cooling effect was insignificant in case of being not installed cold-reservoir. However, in case of winter, heating effect was certified even though the power was not used. At secondhand, the performance of ADSH with Cu was higher 2 times than that of ADSH with Al.

This study evaluated the improvements for circuits of a combat vehicle distribution box to reduce the noise generated in electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing. An analysis of the distribution boxes that failed the standard revealed the conducted noise generated from the converter and semiconductor switching elements on the circuit board. The distribution box transfers power from the generator and battery to the cooling system of a combat vehicle to keep turning the air conditioner on and off. Two methods were proposed to overcome this problem: a passive filter was added to the circuit board for the first method, and the converter and switching elements were replaced with the relays for the second method. Both methods were effective in reducing noise, but a greater improvement was obtained from the second method. The second method was applied to a combat vehicle system and was found to be suitable according to the EMC standards.

This study presented the benefit of the pre-ventilation using solar sunroof with integrated photovoltaic. Recent year, auto-makers make an effort to enhance the fuel efficiency and moreover to clean the cabin passenger's health. Solar energy, one of the alternative energies, adapted in automotive air handling system, in order to pre-ventilation when vehicle parked under the sun in summer. The power generated by a prototype solar sunroof has been used to run blower in a air handing system. And the solar sunroof was installed in a vehicle, and evaluated to find out benefit of the pre-ventilation. The effect of reducing the cabin temperature about $3^{\circ}C{\sim}10^{\circ}C$ with 20 ~ 40W power generator from solar sunroof were obtained in the pre-ventilation test. This reduced thermal load can lead to the reduction of air-conditioning operation time than that of current car. Moreover, fuel economy may increase as a results of the short use of the air-conditioning time. Additionally, Total Volatile Organic Compounds in the cabin is reduced maximum 80% than that of the current vehicle.

Function of the window of the building is an environment of the room through the entry of solar radiation. It is vulnerable to significant energy conservation off the thermal efficiency. Also this summer, cooling costs are weighted because of excessive solar radiation. In this paper, we develop a windows automatic control system to use the indoor environmental information, such as home temperature, humidity, light intensity, solar radiation. The system collects the indoor environment information using a variety of sensor, using the collected information, and controls the motor to the system to control the window.

제습기의 역할은 태양열제습냉방시스템 요소 중에서도 매우 중요하다. 본 논문은 이러한 특성에 맞추어 제작된 장치를 갖고서 제습능력에 영향을 미치는 유량비를 바꾸어 실험한 결과이다. 실험은 크기가 $40m^3$인 항온항습실을 대상으로 이루어졌으며, 향류형 제습기의 수직 높이는 0.4m로 고정되었다. 또한 충진층은 액체흡수제와의 접촉면을 넓게하기 위하여 플라스틱 충진재로 채워져 있으며, 흡수제의 온도는 빠른 변화를 보기 위하여 $15^{\circ}C$로, 농도는 40%로 고정하였다. 액체흡수제의 유량과 습도가 높은 공기의 유량을 각각 3단계로 바꾸어 실험한 결과, 풍량이 높을수록 제습기 효과는 낮아졌으나, 전체적인 제습량에서는 많아졌다. 한편, 제습기에서 액체흡수제 유량이 많을수록 제습되는 수분량이 많아졌으나, 시간의 변화에 따라 제습되는 속도는 현저하게 낮아졌다. 따라서, 향후 실험에서는 유량의 변화 폭을 더욱 확대해서 많은 실험 결과를 확보하고, 이를 모델링화 하여 높은 정확도를 예측할 필요가 있다.

This paper is performed to develop a tripple-tube exchanger which can improve the system efficiency. Three different tube diameters are compacted by one body(tripple-tube) to recover waste heat from heat exchanging among the fluids. With this, the tripple-tube shows higher cooling capacity than the double-tube after comparing between those two systems. The results of this paper are basic data to design the optimum tripple-tube heat exchanger.

일반적으로 온실은 저온기에는 보온이나 난방을 하면서 적극 사용하고 있으나 고온기에는 냉방에 소요되는 에너지가 난방에 비해 상대적으로 많이 소요되므로 온실의 활용도가 떨어지게 된다. 자연환기 시스템은 에너지를 사용하지 않거나 최소한으로 줄여 온실내 온도를 최소한 외부와 동일하게 하거나 낮게 하기 위한 장치라고 할 수 있다. 자연환기를 위한 환기창으로 유리온실이나 경질판 온실과 같은 양지붕형 온실에서는 측창으로 3Way방식이나 권취식, 프로젝트방식 등 다양한 환기창을 사용하고 있으나 천창은 주로 온실 길이방향의 연속형 창틀을 랙앤피니언이나 X형 개폐암으로 개폐하는 프로젝트 방식을 많이 사용하고 있다.

Cooling and heating equipments of railroad passenger cabin is one of the most important part in keeping the good thermal comfort of the passengers. The bad performance of these equipments usually results in the comfort of the passengers. However, there is no testing method for cooling and heating equipments during manufacturing the passenger car, and calculation method is frequently used. Many railroad operators spend a lot of money for the maintenance. In this study, a new environmental performance test for railroad passenger cabin was suggested. The temperature of the chamber will be changed from $-40^{\circ}C$ to $60^{\circ}C$. The performance test of cooling and heating equipment in controlling the passenger cabin temperature was carried out under various temperature condition. The testing method to investigate the effect of artificial sunlight irradiation on the passenger cabin temperature was also suggested.

Since a transcritical $CO_2$ cycle shows lower performance than conventional air conditioners in the cooling mode operation, it is required to enhance the performance of the $CO_2$ cycle by applying advanced technologies and optimizing components. In this study, the cooling performance of a $CO_2$ system measured by varying refrigerant charge amount, compressor frequency, EEV opening and length of internal heat exchanger. As a result, the cooling COP of the basic system without internal heat exchanger was 2.1. The cooling performance of the modified cycle applying internal heat exchanger improved by $4-9\%$ over the basic cycle.
