In this paper, CFD technique has been used at design stage to predict space air distribution in a cycle stadium with air circulation system. An air circulation flow of 0.67 rev./min was observed at computed results in the stadium space with and without air circulation system. Comparing the thermal comfort of the two models with or without air circulation system showed that the thermal environment in the former was superior in the latter. Energy savings could be achieved for the model with air circulation due to its lower air inflow temperature.

Research has been carried out to study thermal environment in a classroom under three kinds of air diffusion temperature and six kinds of air diffusion direction for ceiling type air conditioner. The velocity and temperature distributions of air in the room calculated by 3-dimensional numerical method(PHOENICS), This present study was also conducted to calculate the Air Diffusion Performance Index(ADPI) for cooling conditions and Predicted Percentage of Dissatisfied(PPD) for heating conditions. This analysis shows that the optimum angle of ceiling type air conditioner's diffusion is $15{\sim}30^{\circ}$ for cooling mode and about $15{\sim}45^{\circ}$ for heating mode in these calculating conditions. And also analysis has been carried out to evaluate thermal comfort of vertical and horizontal cross section of classroom.

With increasing interest in living in hanoks, there's a growing need for more quantitative data on the thermal comfort performance of modern hanoks. With that in mind, this research project studied a modern hanok located in Jamjeong-Haetsal Village in Hwasun, Jeollanam Province as a case study to evaluate the Predicted Mean Vote (PMV) of modernized hanoks. Based on environmental data collected at the hanok and computer simulation both Life-Cycle PMV (L.C.PMV) and Normal PMV (N.PMV) were calculated for the hanok. Study results showed that during the summer and winter seasons the PMV and heat index at major heat and major cold weather points significantly deviated from the comfort zone. The rate of change in PMV was also greater in the winter than in the summer. The study found that the modern hanok lacks proper thermal insulation for maintaining thermal comfort.

The boom of housing market lead to build a lot of apartment houses concentrated on the metropolitan area and developing new city in 1980's made 2,000,000 houses. In this time, quality standards could not be satisfied with consumers' desire due to the policy about excessive supply and come from unexpected defects in the complected buildings. In $1980's\~1990's$, It would be performed on the study for defect prevention in apartment houses. It has contributed in no way to the reduction at the rate of the defect outbreak and the solution of consumers' dissatisfaction by flaws. The reason is that the study related defects is not linked and applied by the managing and controlling system, Therefore, the study will be analyzed out defect information occurred on apartment houses of domestic construction and classified by type features. As a result, it will suggest web-based feed-back system for getting systematic information and the practical use.
