Recently, the interest in the thermal comfort is ever increasing as the time people stay in the automobile is gradually increasing. So far, however, the cooling performance of the HVAC(heating and ventilation air conditioning) system is evaluated by thermal environment criteria such as indoor air velocity and temperature, not by a thermal comfort index. Furthermore, the precise criteria has not been established yet when the thermal comfort for the automobile is evaluated using numerical analysis. In this study, the numerical analysis of automobile indoor thermal comfort according to various parameters such as HVAC operating mode, airflow, passenger boarding conditions is performed during the HVAC system's initial operating time(20 minutes). The solar ray tracing model and S2S radiation model are used and validated to simulate an external heat source. Based on this study, an evaluation model which can predict the thermal comfort index for the combination of the above parameters is presented.

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.

The regulations to reduce energy consumption and carbon dioxide emission in building sectors are being developed and promoted all over the world. However, in Korea, as balcony extension of the apartments has been legally allowed, it became prevalent and resulted in excessive energy consumption. This study derived the possibility of PCM application to the thermal storage wall system through theoretical consideration and investigated the problems occurring when the balcony space has been extended to the diverted space. In addition, this study aims at the possibility of verifying the installation and confirming the cooling energy reduction effect, by conducting measuring tests with the actual installation of PCM applied thermal storage wall system. As a result of theoretical consideration, it is determined that the disadvantages with the existing thermal storage wall system can be complemented by applying PCM, and this study suggests the PCM applied Thermal Storage Wall System. The study was conducted on 1/6 of a miniature inner room of a domestic apartment with 84 $m^2$ of exclusive area. From the results of actual measurements, it is confirmed that the balcony extension structure can gain 11.3% of more calories than the existing balcony structure, resulting in the increase in cooling energy usage. It is determined that the installation of the PCM applied Thermal Storage Wall System may gain 25.2% of less calories to reduce cooling energy usage.

This study is to find ways to self-produce energy even in buildings through the system of trees that grow by themselves focused on literatures and case studies. It is divided into the structure, circulation and reaction system of tree. 1) In the structural system, the tree is divided into the shoot and root system, and maintains rigidity with the cell membranes. The wind resistance caused by the trunk and crown can be applied to the seismic structure principle of building, and the role of platelike buttresses of lateral roots can be applied to the horizontal truss and suspension bridge. 2) In the circulation system, the transpiration action through the fine stomata of the leaves can be a very effective cooling means because a large amount of heat is released and this method can be directly introduced into the cooling of buildings. 3) In the responsive system, the response system according to environmental changes that can be read from the leaves and flowers of trees can be applied to the roof and exterior design of buildings through the use of new sensing technologies and materials.

Purpose: Heat transfer analysis of recently developed 'slim type double-skin system window' were presented. This window system is designed for curtain wall type façade that main energy loss factor of recent elegant buildings. And the double skin system is the dual window system integrated with inner shading component, enclosed gap space made by two windows when both windows were closed and shading component effectively reflect and terminate solar radiation from outdoor. Usually double-skin system requires much more space than normal window systems but this development has limited by 270mm, facilitated for curtain wall façade buildings. In this study, we estimated thermophysical phenomena of our double-skin curtain wall system window with solar load conditions at the summer season. Method: A fully 3-Dimentional analysis adopted for flow and convective and radiative heat transfer. The commercial CFD package were used to model the surface to surface radiation for opaque solid region of windows' frame, transparent glass, fluid region at inside of double-skin and indoor/outdoor environments. Result: Steep angle of solar incident occur at solar summer conditions. And this steep solar ray cause direct heat absorption from outside of frame surface rather than transmitted through the glass. Moreover, reflection effect of shading unit inside at the double-skin window system was nearly disappeared because of solar incident angle. With this circumstances, double-skin window system effectively cuts the heat transfer from outdoor to indoor due to separation of air space between outdoor and indoor with inner space of double-skin window system.

Peak cooling load of large buildings is generally greater than their peak heating load. Internal and solar heat gains are used fur selection of adquate equipment in large building in cold winter climate like Canada and even Korea. The cost of geothermal heat exchanger to meet the cooling loads can increase the initial cost of ground source heat pump system to the extend less costly conventional system often chosen. Thermal ice storage system has been used for many years in Korea to reduce chiller capacity and shift Peak electrical time and demand. A distribution system designed to take advantage of heat extracted from the ice, and use of geothermal loop (geothermal heat exchanger) to heat as an alternate heat source and sink is well known to provide many benifits. The use of thermal energy storage (TES) reduces the heat pump capacity and peak cooling load needed in large building by as much as 40 to $60\%$ with less mechanical equipment and less space for mechanical room. Additionally TES can reduce the size and cost of the geothermal loop by 1/3 to 1/4 compared to ground coupled heat pump system that is designed to meet the peak heating and cooling load and also can eliminate difficuties of geothermal loop installation such as space requirements and thermal conditions of soil and rock at the urban area.
