The objective of this study was to compare and analyze for seasonal long short-wave radiation characteristics between downtown area and suburban area in Daegu through field observations. This study was confirmed the regional and seasonal radiation environments and it can utilize as basic data for the analysis of the urban radiation environment and the effects of urbanization. The followings are main results from this study. 1) The downward shortwave radiation showed the similar value of the radiation generally in the downtown area and the suburban area of the city during the winter and summer season. but, long-wave radiation is always higher in downtown area. 2) In case of the long-wave radiation at two stations, we observed $230{\sim}270W/m^2$ in the winter season and $415{\sim}470W/m^2$ in summer season. As a result, we can see summer season is higher than winter about two times in long-wave radiation. 3) In case of short wave radiation, there is high correlation between two stations in winter season but very low correlation between two stations in summer season because of local atmosphere unstability and etc.

Combustion characteristics of industrial radiant tube (RT) burners with forced oscillating combustion technology are investigated using a real-scale (125,000 kcal/h) industrial RT burner facility in both laboratory and field tests. Three different types of industrial RT burners using a by-product gas from the iron-and-steelmaking process are examined in a laboratory facility equipped with a W-type RT. During the field tests, an industrial RT burner is characterized in a large facility equipped with multiple RTs. Their performance and emission controls are investigated under diverse operating conditions. The feasibility of the forced oscillating combustion technology is evaluated by the extent of $NO_x$ reduction and the efficiency improvement. These improvements are able to save energy, extend the RT lifetime, and enhance productivity. The operating conditions that achieve the best performance and emission control for each RT burner are determined.

This paper describes the smoke movement of a fire field model based on a self-developed SMEP(Smoke Movement Estimating Program) code to the simulation of fire induced flows in the two types of compartment space containing the radiation effect under smoke movement in room fire. The SMEP using PISO algorithm solves conservation equations for mass, momentum, energy and species, together with those for the modified k-$\varepsilon $ turbulence model with buoyancy term. Also it solves the radiation equation using the discrete ordinates method. The result of the calculated smoke temperature containing radiation effect has shown reasonable agreement compared with the experimental data. On the other hand, a difference of a lot was found between the temperature predicted by the SMEP with only convection effect and obtained by the experimental result. This seems to come from the radiation effect of $H_2$O and $CO_2$ gas under smoke productions. Thus, the consideration of the radiation effect under smoke in fire may be necessary in order to produce more realistic result.

A Stratospheric airship should stay long to achieve its original mission. Meanwhile, to obtain what the solar radiation and heat transfer have an effect on Stratospheric condition, heat analysis has been done. For this work, Stratospheric heat condition's been examined and for the numerical analysis, by using Gridgen, grids of airship have been generated. And by using STAR-CD, the study about heat characteristic of airship model was carried out. Especially, with changing the position of the Sun, the temperature change of the airship body was focused on. With this background, the possibility of realizing the simulation of the effects solar radiation have on the Stratospheric airship.

In this study, a numerical analysis is made of the fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics in the solar arrays of HALE (High Altitude Lond Endurance) UAV. In the stratosphere where UAV operates, high level solar radiation is induced, heat transfer decreases due to natural convection and forced convection is dominated by ambient flow. In order to predict the solar array temperature range in this environment condition, the conjugate heat transfer analysis was carried out for the solar arrays on the main wing. The investigation focused on the temperature distribution of solar array and heat transfer characteristics according to influence of solar energy, flight condition as vehicle speed, air density, temperature.

The purpose of this study is to understand daily variation of short-wave radiation trends according to the state of surface and observation of atmosphere conditions in downtown and suburban observation area. The followings are main results from this study. 1) We found out daily air temperature variation of downtown is less than that of suburban area because of bigger heat capacity of artificial elements such as massive buildings and pavements. 2) It is more effective to estimate of air condition by water vapor pressure than relative humidity in the atmosphere. 3) The difference of solar radiation ratio between downtown and suburban area is dependant on different atmosphere conditions at two observation stations.

Heat regenerator attached in small-scale regenerative radiant tube burner was designed using the theoretical computation code and was confirmed the performance of waste heat recovery ratio. From the computation, when ceramic ball of 4-5kg was used, temperature efficiency and available waste heat recovery ratio were predicted 80% and 70%, respectively. Similar efficiencies were obtained from the experiments using LPG. However, since exhaust gas temperature entered into regenerator was below 85$0^{\circ}C$ which was much lower than that we expected, preheat air temperature was lowered below 80$0^{\circ}C$.

The objective of this study is to analyze the characteristic of radiation environment in the urban and rural through the field observation in the summer. The radiation balance was compared through the measurement of the shortwave radiation and long-wave radiation in the urban, sub-urban, and rural. The following conclusion could be obtained from this research. (1) In the results of observation including the rain-day, it was found that the short wave radiance in the urban is lower about 10% than the rural. (2) The upper part of atmosphere layers in the urban area absorb much short wave radiation energies compared with the rural relatively. It can increase the temperature of the upper part of atmosphere layers and the emittance of long wave radiation. (3) The ratio of the downward short wave radiation to the downward long wave radiation was 1.24 for the urban, 1.28 for sub-urban and1.35 for rural. It can be estimated that the atmosphere condition of the rural is better than that of other areas.

The purpose of this study is to understand the characteristics of urban climate in several cities, from observing radiation according to wavelength band(UV, short and long wave radiation). Observation start from 5 May to 31 August 2013. The followings are the main results from this study. 1) In every observation area, greater amounts of short-wave radiation have been recorded in May compared to June. Even though the highest solar elevation occurs in June, May sees clearer days, which has attributed to the outcome. 2) The analysis concerning the correlation between ultraviolet radiation and shortwave radiation have revealed that regions closer to the Daegu area have stronger correspondence. 3) The time series of daily long-wave radiation shares a similar tendency with the time series of air temperature, and the maximum value was recorded at 14:00 and 15:00.
