This experiment was carried out to analyse on the cooling and dehumidifying effects of greenhouse by air-to-water heat pump system employing the air as cooling source. following results were obtained ; 1. The coefficients of performance (COP) of heat pump itself and total heat pump system were approximately 2.71~2.88 and 1.99~2.22, respectively. 2. The night-time cooling load of experimental greenhouse was 64.9 MJ/h, and the heat absorbed (cooling load) from heat pump system was 816.3~1,004.6 MJ/day. 3. The dehumidified moisture amount from experimental greenhouse was 7.0~15.0 kg/h. 4. The night time temperature of experimental greenhouse cooled by heat pump system could be maintained 4~6$^{\circ}C$ lower than that of control greenhouse which was almost equal to outside air temperature.

최근에 에너지절약 차원에서 종래의 공조방식을 대신할 새로운 냉난방시스템 개발이 요구되고 있는데, 본 논문에서는 태양열 집열기를 이용하는 데시컨트 시스템 중 제습역할을 실질적으로 담당하는 제습기의 충진층 부분에서의 열 및 물질전달에 관한 일련의 해석 결과를 발표하고 있다. 제습과정에서 액체흡수제는 충진층에서 열 뿐만 아니라 물질전달을 수반하게 되는데, 이 결과 건물에 냉방 및 난방효과를 가져다 준다. 따라서 이 충진층의 최적 설계가시스템의 효율을 극대화하기 위해서는 무엇보다도 중요한데, 이를 위해서는 충진층에서의 열 및 물질전달 양상을 규명하여야 한다. 따라서 금번 실험에서는 공기와 액체흡수제와의 접촉면적을 넓히기 위해서 충진재로써 3cm(직경) ${\times}$ 3cm(높이)인 시판중인 플라스틱 재질을 사용하고, 실질적으로 40cm(너비)${\sim}$40cm(깊이)${\times}$40cm(높이)의 충진층을 직접 제작하여 실험을 행하였다. 그 결과, 공기측 열 및 물질전달 계수는 공기 온도와 밀접한 관계를 갖고 있으며, 또한 물질전달계수는 열전달계수와 같은 경향을 보이고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

This study was performed to develop a dryer for home clothes using thermoelectric module. The thermoelectric module was used as a heat source and a dehumidification device because it has heating part and cooling part at once. To design for maximizing the energy efficiency and the rate of dehumidification, the parameters of the dryer using thermoelectric module are heat capacity and air flow rate. This study showed that the thermoelectric module can be used in the clothes dryer and energy efficiency of clothes dryer be better than that of electric heating dryer.

In this study, the Peltier effect was applied to eliminate moistures in the air enclosed by a cabinet. We have developed the new electronic dehumidifier which has a new function of automatically evaporating the condensed water inner cabinet into the outside air. To obtain this function, the processes of dehumidification is that it condensed the moistures on the cold side heat sink and drained it into the hot side heat sink by the both gravitational and capillary forces and the droplets on the hot side heat sink surface was evaporated into the air outside the cabinet by the heat conducted through the hot side heat sink surface and the forced heat convection through the fan for cooling hot side heat sink. Compared to existing electronic dehumidifiers, this manufactured one showed a good performance that the electric power consumption for the same dehumidifying quantity was reduced by 50% compared with that of existing ones.

The summer climate is very hot and humid in Korea. The humidity is an important factor in determining thermal comfort. Recently, the research for dehumidification device development has been attempted to save energy that is required for the operation of the current dehumidifiers on the market. Existing dehumidification systems have disadvantages such as wasting energy to drive a compressor. Meanwhile, dehumidification systems with membranes can dehumidify humid air without increasing the dry bulb temperature so it doesn't have to consume cooling energy. In this paper, the cooling energy savings was studied when a dehumidification system was applied in a model building instead of a chiller. The sensible heat load was almost the same result, but the latent heat load was decreased by 38.9% and the total heat load was decreased by 8.5%. As a result, electric energy used to drive the compressor in a chiller was saved by applying a membrane air-conditioning system instead.

최근 시설재배 면적이 급증하고 있는 것에 부응하여 시설을 이용한 작물의 주년안정생산에 관한 연구가 활성화되고 있다. 그러나 여름철의 고온극복과 냉방에 관한 연구는 아직까지도 많은 어려움을 겪고 있다. 우리나라와 같이 사계절이 뚜렷한 기후여건에서는 겨울철의 난방 및 보온에 못지 않게 여름철의 냉방 및 고온극복 대책이 주년안정생산에 있어서 빼놓을 수 없는 중요한 과제가 아닐 수 없다. (중략)

This paper has dealt with the probability of oyster shell desiccant cooling system driven by renewable energy of photo-voltaic effect. For this, fundamental experiments have been carried out focusing on the observation of dehumidifying effect of oyster shell and peltier elements used for air conditioning system. From this study, it is found that oyster shell has sufficient probability for using as a desiccant in air-conditioning system. Moreover, the heat releasing device(peltier element) can be used with direct current from PV cells so the system can be operated with high efficiency. As a result, the absolute humidity in a test chamber was reasonably controlled by oyster shell and peltier elements. Also the photo-voltaic energy from sun was enough for running power of this system.

This experiment was carried out to elucidate the drying characteristics of onion and dehumidifying effect of air using the silica gel and to reuse it by solar collector. The results were summarized as follows. 1. It takes 14hours to regenerate to silica gel of 8% moisture content from saturated silica gel in conditions of $28^{\circ}c$ temperature and 55% relative humidity. 2. When sample was recycled through solar collector, the result of drying was 1/2 times more efficient than that of mat drying. 3. Average thermal efficiency of solar collector was 25% during the experimental period. 4. Browning extent was reduced to 1/2 times at heated air blow drying system using drying chamber.

근년에 전세계에서 목재건조 기술의 주요 관심사는 첫째 건조응력발생과 건조결함 예방이고, 다음은 건조실 제어시스템, 건조스케줄개발, 목재수분이동, 함수율측정, 새로운 건조방법개발, 건조에너지 절약, 경제성분석, 태양열건조, 수학적모델링, 건조전처리, 마이크로웨이브 건조, 건조실 구성과 정비, 건조종기결정, 감압건조, 공정제어와 콘다숀닝, 제습건조, 목재치수 안정 및 고온건조 등의 순위이다. 건조중 발생하는 결함들은 건조경비 증가에 절대적인 영향을 끼칠 수 있다. 예를 들면, 가구공장에 있어서 건조재의 품등 향상에 따른 1%의 수율 증대 효과는 가구 부품 1000 보오드피트당 23$의 생산비를 절감할 수 있고, 활엽수재의 천연건조시 수반되는 건조손상은 생재의 23%를 초과할 수 있다. 본 총설이 각종 문제를 개선하고 건조경비를 절감하는데 기여할 수 있기를 바라며, 또한 단판, 칩 또는 땔감과 같은 비제재품에 관한 건조에 관한것은 제외하였다.
