To protect farmers from solar radiation and UV, the movable sunshade tent was designed and its protection efficiency was measured in the artificial chamber and outdoors. Sunshade tent and the existing farmer's hat were examined. The results were as followes； Heart rate, total body weight loss and temperature of clothing microclimate on the chest and the back were lower in using sunshade tent than those in wearing existing hat in two experiments. In subjective sensation, subjects answered to feel significantly hotter and more uncomfortable in wearing existing hat in two experiments. Rectal temperature was significantly lower using the sunshade hat in experiment at outdoors(p<0.001).

This study was to develop the sunshade hat which reduced stress from solar radiation and ultraviolet radiation (UV), in order to keep the farmer's health and to promote their work efficiency. The new sunshade hat with a large brim, special structure for ventilation, stability and portability was designed and tested with manikin heads outdoors. Two newly designed sunshade hats(A, B) and three existing hat were tested Sunshade hat A made of double fabric with aluminum coating-nylon and black cotton cloth with a polyester mix(T/C) was the most protective from solar radiation. Sunshade hat B with larger brim was the most protective from ultraviolet radiation, even though it was made of aluminum coating-nylon single fabric.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate human thermal comfort by spatial structure and to explore solutions to improve the thermal environment of a small urban space. The study site was Korea University campus. Thermal conditions were measured to evaluate the quality of the thermal environment in each type of space within the study site. Micrometeorology measurements, analysis of space characteristics for using fish-eye lens photography, and thermal comfort modeling through the use of collected meteorological data, such as temperature and humidity, were performed. Results showed that the level of thermal comfort for humans differs depending on the types of space within the study site. Thermal comfort is better in open spaces than enclosed in the aspect of radiative mean temperature, Predicted Mean Vote(PMV), and Physiologically Equivalent Temperature(PET). This fact is probably due to shadows or buildings or trees that may block solar radiation. Thus, it is necessary to consider the spatial arrangements of buildings and trees to enhance openness and ventilation in the space. Paving materials and exterior building materials should also be selected to lower the radiant temperature. Given these results, a quantitative evaluation on human thermal comfort could propose a way to plan user comfortable small urban spaces. Study methods used and results provided in the study can promote a better way for urban space planning direction to improve environmental quality.

본 논문에서는 $SF_6$ 차단기 내의 대전류 아크에 대한 수치적인 해석을 모의하는 도구를 제시한다. 대전류의 차단을 위해서 해석을 통해 열적 파괴를 예측하는 것이 필수적이다. 본 논문에서 사용한 방법은 FVFLIC(finite volume fluid in cells)이며 지배방정식은 압축성 오일러 방정식으로 아크와 유동의 상호 작용을 해석한다. 아크는 기본적으로 에너지 보존식에서 열소스항으로 나타나며 주울열과 복사항으로 표현된다. 주울열은 플라즈마 영역내의 전계해석을 통해 계산되며 복사항은 방출과 흡수항의 합으로 나타내어지고 이것은 국소적인 온도와 압력의 함수이다. 본 논문에서는 수정된 방출과 흡수 모델로 복사 열전달을 계산하였다.

Various research has been done on fires and explosions at gas stations at home and abroad. However, only studies of off-site damage in the event of fire at the gas station were conducted, and research on fire at the auxiliary facilities in the gas station was insufficient. The gas station is a place where anyone can easily access dangerous goods. As the risk of fire increases due to the recent increase of auxiliary facilities such as convenience stores and car repair shops in gas stations, it is important to detect the effects of fire on the main oil refinery in case of fire and to verify the validity of existing regulations. In this thesis, we conducted a study to find out the effect of radiation heat on the separation between fixed and fixed oil reactors in the event of fire at an auxiliary facility. Simulation was modelled using FDS 5.5.3 Version, and the size of the fire source was configured with 13 fire assessment devices and the heat emission rate per unit area was entered. Simulation shows that the separation distance of 2 m does not secure the safety of the gas pump in the event of fire at the auxiliary facilities, and radiation heat does not damage at the separation distance of at least 4 m. Accordingly, facilities that can block radiant heat in the event of fire at auxiliary facilities, and measures to limit the use of auxiliary facilities or to re-impose the separation between buildings and fixtures will be needed.

A Protomodel Space Infrared Cryogenic System (PSICS) cooled by a stirling cry-ocooler has been designed. The PSICS has an IR sensor inside the cold box which is cooled by a stirling cryocooler with refrigeration capacity of 500mW at 80K in a vacuum vessel. It is important to minimize the heat load so that the background thermal noise can be reduced. In order to design the cryogenic system with low heat load and to reduce the remained heat load, we have performed numerical analyses. In this paper, we present the design factors and the results obtained by the thermal analysis of the PSICS.

Building a firebreak against surface forest fire is a typical indirect suppression method that stops spread of flame by removing surface fuel, such as fallen leaves and bushes. In the sense of fire dynamic, building a firebreak is to set a section which will block thermal energy from igniting on virgin fuel. This study suggests and evaluates a calculation method for width of firebreak against surface fire for variant wind and slope conditions by applying the Point Source Model (PSM) to fallen leaves of Pinus densiflora. Width of firebreak was measured based on the distance the threshold radiant heat igniting Pinus densiflora fallen leaves at the heat flux of $4.9\;kW/m^2$ reaches. As a result, at the wind velocity of 0~5 m/s and on the slope of $0{\sim}50^{\circ}$, the appropriate width of a firebreak was 0.35~0.65 m for the mean flame height and 0.75~1.05 m for the maximum flame height. Accordingly, considering the factor of safety, the most appropriate width of a firebreak is 1.05 m based on the maximum flame height. Additional comparative analyses through experiments and field surveys are deemed necessary to determine appropriate widths of firebreak for different types of surface fuel.

MIRIS(Multipurpose InfraRed Imaging System)는 과학기술위성 3호의 주 탑재체로서 2011년 발사예정인 다목적 적외선 카메라 시스템이다. MIRIS는 우주관측 카메라와 지구관측 카메라로 구성되어 있으며, 우주관측 카메라는 $0.9-2.0{\mu}m$ 영역에서 3.67 deg. x 3.67 deg. FOV로 우리 은하평면 survey 관측과 우주배경복사(CIB) 관측을 수행할 것이다. 현재 MIRIS는 비행모델 개발 마무리 단계에 있으며, 검교정 시험, 열-진공 시험, 진동 시험 등을 수행하고 나면 2010년 말 위성 본체와의 조립을 진행할 것이다. 우주관측 카메라는 궤도상에서 태양, 지구의 적외선 복사와 망원경과 검출기 주변에서 발생하는 열잡음을 줄이기 위해 냉각이 필요하며, 제한된 위성의 무게와 부피, 전력등의 요구조건들 때문에 망원경 및 구조체의 복사냉각(Passive Cooling) 방법을 선택하였다. Passive cooling으로 우주관측 카메라의 망원경이 200K 이하로 냉각되면, dewar에 설치된 소형 냉각기를 가동하여 적외선 센서를 80K로 냉각한다. 위성체 내벽과 우주관측카메라의 각 구조체들 사이의 복사를 차단하기위해 30층의 MLI를 적용 하였고, 각 구조체들간의 열전도를 최소화하기위해 GFRP supporter를 적용하였다. 이 실험은 천문(연)에서 자체 제작한 열-진공 챔버를 활용하여 진행하였으며, 이미 인증모델에 대한 passive cooling 실험을 두 차례 실시하였고, 그 실험 결과를 반영하여 최종 비행모델에 대한 실험을 수행하였으며, 그 실험 결과에 대해 논의 하고자 한다.

Aluminum has been widely used as frame materials in the curtain walls. Recently, use of steel as a curtain wall frame is being considered due to its higher strength and thermal resistance than aluminum. In this study, fire tests on the basis of EN 13830 were performed with aluminum and steel-aluminum hybrid curtain walls. From the tests, fire resistance integrity, thermal insulation, and radiation properties were evaluated for both systems and compared. According to the test results, the steel-aluminum hybrid curtain wall showed better fire-performance than the typical aluminum curtain wall for the fire resistance integrity and radiation properties. Although, the fire resistance performance for the insulation property was 6 min for both the two frames, the collapses were occurred at 36 min for the steel-aluminum hybrid curtain wall and at 13 min for the aluminum hybrid curtain wall.
