A need for building energy efficiency is on the issue since energy demand in the building stock in Korea represents about 24% of the final energy consumption. As a way of improving the thermal performance of buildings for reducing maintenance costs and environmental conservation, a lot of effort is shown to improve the building energy efficiency by applying improvement of envelope insulation performance for buildings whose energy efficiency is low relatively through the remodeling. The windows of building envelopes are areas that lead to the biggest heat loss in the building. So windows are considered to be the primary target of energy efficiency in remodeling and various studies for windows have been done. Currently, however, only U-factor and airtightness of windows performance are regulated. Window wall ratio(WWR) and solar heat gain coefficient(SHGC) of windows are not considered when conducting the remodeling. In this study appropriate performance of windows(U-factor and SHGC) for existing residential is proposed according to the window wall ratio by using EnergyPlus. As the results of this study, the U-factor of windows representing the maximum energy savings is $1.0W/m^2K$ but in case of SHGC, the values that indicate the maximum energy savings are different depending on the window wall ratio. Therefore, when conducting the remodeling of windows, to determine energy efficiency by considering only the U-factor is inadequate so it is necessary that appropriate windows are applied to buildings by considering window wall ratio and windows properties(U-factor and SHGC).

Building energy demands have highly risen in modern society; thus, It is necessary to reduce building energy demands especially commercial buildings adopting a curtain wall architecture. Curtain wall architectures have a high ratio of windows which is a vulnerable in heat insulations as cladding. In order to complement insulation performance of windows in these buildings, there are various methods adopted often such as installing blinds, wing wall and films. There are two suggestions of this paper. 1) WWR (Window-to-Wall Ratio) makes a impaction of energy demands in buildings. 2) Another one is an efficiency of blind systems which are installed in buildings in order to reduce cooling demands. It is also critical to make fundamental model for low-energy building construction by processing a lot of simulation As a result by this study, 1) an external blind system is more useful for reducing cooling energy demands rather than an internal blind system. 2) Buildings which have a large window require more amount of cooling demands. In case of WWR 45%, it needs more cooling energy rather than WWR 15% model's 3) Adopting blind system would reduce energy demands. WWR 45% model with external blind systems reduces about 4% of cooling energy demands compared to same model without any blind systems.4) it is necessary to study an efficiency of blind systems combined with renewable energy and it will be possible to reduce more energy demand in building significantly.

공동주택에서 2025년 정부가 추진하고 있는 Zero Energy 건축물 구현과 친환경에 대한 탄소배출 저감 문제로 재생에너지 생산시스템의 추가 적용은 반드시 필요하다. 따라서 공동주택 적용 및 활용성을 높일 수 있는 BIPV시스템 개발을 통하여 설치면적 확보와 세대 활용성을 높일 수 있도록 하는 것이 필요하다. 특히 거실 창호의 경우 주방향이 남향, 남동 또는 남서향으로 배치되어 태양광을 적용하기에 적합한 특성을 가지고 있다. 그러나 창호는 건물외피의 역할과 재실자가 조망과 정보취득을 얻을 수 있는 중요한 통로가 되기 때문에 단열 문제나 시야 차폐의 문제는 발생하지는 않도록 하는 것이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 a-si타입 모듈 2개를 10% 투과율로 Bsck Coating 색상을 달리한 모듈과 c-si BIPV 모듈을 커튼월 창호시스템으로 개발, 일반 2중 창호시스템과 비교 평가를 위해 실제 Test bed 건물에 시공하여 시환경 및 실내 창측면 온도변화 측정 분석을 진행하였다. 현재 국내외 출시되고 있는 a-si see through 모듈은 10~30%의 투과율로 창 마감재로 대체가 가능하나 건축 환경(시환경,열환경)에 대한 분석은 전무한 상태이다. 본 연구에서는 시환경과 창유리면의 열 부하, 자외선, 적외선 차폐 및 가시광선의 투과율에 대한 평가와 Back Coating에 따른 색온도 평가를 통해서 a-si BIPV의 공동주택 세대 발코니 창호 적합성에 대한 검토를 진행하였다. 연구결과는 아래와 같다. ${\bullet}$ 실내조도는 청천공 정오기준 가시성 확보 모듈의 경우 2,300 ~ 3,500lx를 나타내고 있어 대비 현상이나 창측의 급격한 조도 변화가 적은 시환경 구축이 가능 ${\bullet}$ 12시경 휘도는 창측면, 실내 벽체, 코너 바닥면을 대상으로 a-si BIPV 모듈을 적용한 경우 휘도비가 12:1로 KS나 IESNA의 광원과 근접면의 비 20:1 범위에 모두 존재, 적합한 것으로 분석되었으나 c-si의 경우는 그림자로 인한 대비 현상이 발생, 작업 시환경 문제 발생. ${\bullet}$ 이중시스템 창호와 비교하여 단열 성능 떨어짐. 발전시간대 창유리 면 온도 상승 으로 하절기 냉방부하 증가. ${\bullet}$ 자외선은 100% 가까이 차단, 적외선은 13~42%만 투과되고 가시광선은 13% 투과율을 나타내어 일반 창에 칼라 코팅을 적용하는 것과 유사한 경향을 나타냄.

Following the earthquake in Gyeongju (2016) and Pohang (2017), South Korea is no longer a safe place for earthquakes. Accordingly, the need for shelters suitable for disaster environments is increasing. In this study, a lightweight composite panel was used to produce post-disaster housing for refugees to compensate for the disadvantages of existing evacuation facilities. For this purpose, an evaluation of structural performance and thermal environment for post-disaster housing for refugees composed of lightweight composite panels was performed. To assess the structural performance, a lateral loading test was conducted on a system made of lightweight composite panels. The specimens consisted of two types, which differed according to the bonding method, as a variable. In addition, the seismic and wind loads were calculated in accordance with KBC 2016 and compared with the experimental results. Regarding the energy performance, optimization of south-facing window planning and window-wall ratio and solar heat gain coefficient were analyzed to minimize heating, cooling, and lighting energy. As a result, the specimens composed of lightweight composite panels will perform sufficiently safely for lateral loads and the optimized window planning will lead to a low-energy operation.

Low solar gain glazing should be applied on windows in order to reduce the solar radiation load. In a country where a cooling and a heating load coexist throughout the year, such as in Korea, a high solar gain glazing is need to reduce the heating load, but a low solar gain glazing should be applied to reduce the cooling load. Recently, dynamic windows have been developed for which the solar shading performance switches according to the amount of solar radiation flowing into the indoor space through the glazing, and these have been used in building to solve such problems. The purpose of this research is to analyze the energy performance of the electrochromic glazing for dynamic windows that has been extensively commercialized for office buildings in Incheon and Ulsan through an energy simulation implemented in the eQUEST program.

In this paper a new structure of BJT is proposed to improve the saturation voltage characteristics so that it can be used to the low power switching devices. In the case of the conventional finger transistor(FT), the saturation voltage is so high that it dose not satisfy the requirements for the low power device. So the other multi base island transistor(MBIT) is suggested and its saturation voltage is so low in the region of low current that it satisfy the requirement for the low power switching devices, but in region of the high current the saturation voltage tends to increase so that it does not satisfy the requirements for the low power switching devices. So in this paper a new structure of folded back electrode transistor(FBET) is proposed and the characteristics is investigated. When the new structure is applied the emitter area is increased by 35 % so the saturation voltage is reduced by 30 % at the low current region and the contact area is increased by 92 % so the saturation voltage is reduced by totally f % at the high current region with the reduction of 30 % by the increase of the emitter area and the reduction of 7 % by the increase of the emitter contact area.

In this study, we synthesized two different silica monoliths by using sol-gel, solvent exchange, surface modification, ambient pressure drying processes, and surfactant-based templating technique followed by calcination process. All of the prepared two silica monoliths showed crack-free appearance with fairly good transparency, and furthermore were confirmed to have extremely high porosity, specific surface area, and mean pore size below 30 nm. The silica aerogel sample exhibited finer and more homogeneous nano-sized pore structure due to spring back effect caused by surface modification, which resulted in better thermal insulation performance. Based on measured thermal conductivities and theoretical relationship, multi-layered glass window system in which silica monolith prepared in this study was inserted as a middle layer was revealed to have superior thermal insulation performance compared to conventional air-inserted glass window system.

In these days, open signboard system is controlled by administrative policy and law, but there is no consideration for different types of building. As such, this study aims to propose planning criteria for streetside commercial buildings, such as elevation and mass design of buildings, layout of signboard attached to the building elevation with consideration for streetscape. In mass planning for streetside commercial buildings, the building type with front open space keeps lower open signboard density than the building type directly leading to the street. It is desirable that open signboard of lower floor part is attached by a horizontal type, open signboard of low medium floor part by a projected vertical type, open signboard of high medium floor part and roof part with a minumum attachment of open signboard. As for elevation planning relative to open signboard, it is desirable that an irregular wall type is more useful than a regular wall type to control open signboard. And in all cases, horizontal element facade has a handicap to control the quantity of signboard. If the building has a corner, the piloti should be used in the corner of lower story for smooth circulation of pedestrians and emphasizing the transparency of elevation. Specially, in the case of a round corner, the corner should be emphasized by the composition of high transparent mass.
