This study was conducted to investigate the effects of the frame ratio and greenhouse length on the transmissivities of direct and diffuse solar radiation in glasshouse using a computer simulation model developed by Kim and Lee(1997). Transmissivity of diffuse solar radiation slightly decreased as the frame ratio increased. There was no effect of number of spans on the transmissivity of diffuse solar radiation at the same frame ratio. In single or multispan glasshouse, transmissivity of direct solar radiation was 1.5-3.0% higher at the frame ratio of 11.3% than those at the frame ratio of 14.9%. Also the transmissivity of direct solar radiation was 1.5-3.0% lower at the frame ratio of 18.3% than those at the frame ratio of 14.9%. Effect of the increased or decreased frame ratio on the transmissivity of direct solar radiation was similar in I-W or S-N glasshouse. Since the high transmissivity of direct solar radiation exerted a beneficial influence upon the plant growth during winter season, the light and endurable structural members were needed to maximize the transmission of solar radiation in glasshouse. Transmissivity of direct solar radiation in I-W or S-N glasshouse did not vary with the length of 24.5m long or more.

This study is suggested tilt window type to be restrained solar radiation through vertical window type in buildings. The shading and aesthetical effect of buildings would be solved by installation of tilt window type. For investigate optimum an angle of tilt window and building azimuth in reference region, the distance of transmitted solar radiation is calculated. The results of calculation showed optimum an angle of tilt window is obtained $7^{\circ}$ that the distance of transmitted solar radiation is 20% of 1.5m of balcony width. In case of an tilt window angle of $7^{\circ}$, the optimum building azimuth is showed $SW15^{\circ}{\sim}SE15$.

온실내에서 직달 및 산란일사의 투과율은 온실이 설치된 지역의 위도, 온실의 동방위 및 형상, 피복재의 광학적 특성, 년중일수, 기상 조건, 지붕면의 경사각 뿐만 아니라 온실의 길이, 구조물의 크기 등에 따라 달라질 수 있다. 현재 국내의 기상 조건에 적합한 표준형 유리온실의 설계 기준이 부분적으로 제시되고 있으나, 온실내의 광환경과 관련된 설계 기준은 제시되지 않고 있는 실정이다. (중략)

국내에 보급되어 있는 유리온실은 네덜란드에서 수입된 벤로형(Venlo type or Dutchlite)과 벤로형에 비해서 동고가 높으며 온실 한 동의 폭이 상대적으로 큰 광폭형(widespan type)이 대부분을 차지하고 있다. 벤로형 은실의 측고는 3.5~4.0m로서 다소 차이가 있으나, 한 동의 폭과 지붕경사면의 길이가 일정하기 때문에 온실의 지붕경사각은 대부분 22$^{\circ}$를 나타낸다. (중략)

To compare to the optical and physical properties of covering materials for plastic greenhouse, EVA(ethylene vinyl acetate, 0.08 mm), polyorefine antifog (0.1 mm), fluoric (0.06 mm), diffused (0.15 mm), polyorefine antidrop (0.15 mm) and PET (polyethylene terephthalate, 0.5 mm) films were used. The small greenhouse (5.4$\times$18.5$\times$2.9 m, W$\times$L$\times$H) investigated during 3 years form 1997 to 1999. After covering materials were used for greenhouse covering during 30 months, UV (300-400 nm) transmittances of diffused film and PET were appeared from 25 to 26%, while those of fluoric film and the other films were 76% and from 63 to 67%. For PAR (photosynthetically active radiation, 400-700 nm), the transmittances of fluoric, antidrop, PET, antifog, EVA, and diffused film were 86.5%, 80.5%, 76.3%, 75.5%, 74.1% and 61.9% respectively. The losses of PAR transmittance of EVA and the antidrop film during period between 7 days and 30 months were higher value 12% and lower value 6% than any other film. Under the canopy of tomato plants, light intensities of the diffused film and the antifog film were 2.5 times and 1.4 times higher than those of PET. Tensile resistances of fluoric film at the break point were the higher than those of antifog film and diffused film. While impact resistance of the antidrop film was the highest value, but the fluoric film was the lowest. Air temperature inside the greenhouse for the day showed to be changed the similar light transmittance of the films. But the increasing order of air temperature for the night was PET, fluoric, antidrop, diffused, antifog and EVA film. Especially, air temperature in the PET was 4$^{\circ}C$ higher than that in the EVA. Solar radiations of the fluoric film, the antidrop film, PET and antifog film in the greenhouse were 32%, 15%, 11% and 4% higher than those of PET. However, those of the diffused film was 7% less than PET.

During the growth of fruit vegetables such as pepper, cucumber and tomato, there are light deficiency under the plant canopy. This study was conducted to clarify the effect of light diffusion film on the stem growth, canopy, flowering and fruiting of green pepper in greenhouse. The transmittance of total solar radiation into greenhouse under woven and double films were 90% and 75% of polyethylene film. And the transmittance of photosynthetically active radiation into greenhouse under woven and double films were 96% and 81% of polyethylene film. However, the light diffusions under woven, double and polyethylene films were 46%, 31% and 9%, respectively. The plant height under polyethylene film covered greenhouse was 96.9% cm, taller than those under woven and double films by 6.5, 13.9 cm. And the third node length under woven film covered greenhouse was 8.6 cm, shorter than those under double and polyethylene films by 2.5, 5.7 cm. Also the first branch angle under woven film covered greenhouse was 61.0$^{\circ}$, larger than those under double and polyethylene films by 2.3, 10.3$^{\circ}$. But there was no clear difference in the node numbers among the covering materials. The rate of curved and sterile fruit under woven film covered greenhouse was smaller than those under double and polyethylene films by 4.6, 5.5% and 1.2, 3.6%. But the contents of vitamin C showed no difference among the covering materials and plant densities.
