환기는 온실내 미기상에 중요한 영향을 미치는 물리적 과정임에도 불구하고 이에 대한 연구는 아직까지 빈약해 왔다. 환기는 온실내의 온도, 습도 그리고 이산화탄소 등의 가스농도를 최적으로 제어하기 위한 수단으로 사용되어진다(Bailey, 1988). 강제환기시스템은 대부분의 온실에서 그 사용이 보편화되지 못하였으므로, 일반적으로 자연환기가 원예시설의 공기교환을 위한 유일한 수단이 되고 있다. (중략)

연료전지는 수소를 이용하여 전기를 생산하는 발전 시스템으로 운전 중 수소 누출과 폭발의 위험성을 항상 수반하고 있다. 따라서 안전성의 확보를 위해 연료전지 시스템 내부에서 수소 누출 시 유e동 특성으로 인한 특정 부근 농도 정체와 환기의 영향을 파악하는 것이 필요하다. 실험 장치와 전산유체역학 프로그램을 사용하여 챔버 내 수소의 유통 특성과 환기구에 따른 환기의 영향을 확인하였다. 수소의 누출 속도와 양에 따라 유동장의 형태는 크게 변하였으며 환기구의 위치와 크기는 특정 부근의 농도정체와 챔버 내 전체적인 수소 농도에 영향을 미침으로서 안정성을 확보하는 중요한 인자임을 알 수 있었다. 예측 결과를 실제 실험 모델과 비교하여 그 타당성을 검토하였으며 차후 가정용 연료전지 모듈의 환기구 설계에 적용할 수 있다.

In the present study, flow characteristics inside a road tunnel are simulated for the ventilation flows due to jet fan system and flows induces by the traffic. Traffic ventilation is numerically simulated by multiple reference frame. From the results of steady state simulation of tunnel ventilation, it is found that the proper ventilation is achieved by the designed jet fan system along with ventilating flow induced by the traffic. A transient simulation is also performed for the case of vehicle fire in the tunnel reversing the direction of rotation of some fans. The results suggest that the heat and smoke can be controlled by the proper changing of fan operation mode. The present results can be used to design proper ventilation system and effective smoke control system as well.

In this study, the emission rate of pollutant was modified according to the published standards, and the distribution of pollutant concentration was analyzed for each vehicle velocity. This modified emission rate was applied to a model tunnel and it was proved that the required air quantity was reduced to 49%, compared to the PIARC method. From the simulation result, it was proved by using statistics that the most sensitive factor among them is the friction coefficient and it was modified to the value in the range of 0.018 to 0.021. It is also expected that the required air quantity can be decreased form 14.4% to 19.2% according as the coefficient is applied to the domestic model tunnels. In conclusion, it is proposed that the number of jet fans can be reduced and the annual operating cost can be curtailed as well.

Generally, the total ventilation resistance coefficient in a tunnel consists of inlet/outlet loss coefficient, wall friction coefficient, and other loss coefficient caused by sudden expansion and contraction of cross-section, etc. For the tunnel before opening, when the running ventilation fan is stopped, the wind speed in the tunnel is reduced by the total ventilation resistance drag. The velocity decay method is comparatively stable and easy to estimate the wall friction coefficient in the pre-opening tunnel. However, the existing study reported that when the converging wind speed is a negative value after the ventilation fan stops, it is difficult to estimate the wall friction coefficient according to the velocity decay method. On the other hand, for the operating tunnel in which the piston effect acts, a more complex process is performed; however, a reasonable wall friction coefficient can be estimated. This paper aims at suggesting a method to minimize the measurement variables of the piston effect and reviewing a method that can be applied to the operating tunnel. Also, in this study, a new method has been developed, which enables to calculate an variation of the piston effect if the piston effect is constant with a sudden change of external natural wind occurring while the wind speed in the tunnel decreases after the ventilation fan stops, and a programming logic has been also developed, which enables dynamic simulation analysis in order to estimate the wall friction coefficient in a tunnel.

In the past many tunnels have been built to lowest capital investment cost without adequate regard for the cost of operation. But according to increasing the capacity of a ventilation system and to becoming diverse, it is to become more important to come up with the optimal operation stage of ventilation system. In this study, the tunnel ventilation dynamic simulation program had been developed. it is used to calculate the unsteady-state tunnel air velocity and concentration of pollutants according to the assumed average day traffic profile and summarize the energy consumption for the operation of ventilation system. And the operation energy consumption for the electric precipitation system and vertical vent shaft system are evaluated and compared in various operation mode. As the results of this study, the optimal operation stage for these ventilation system are provided.

In this study, diagonal ventilation circuits that are advantageous in air flow direction control were studied. Based on the results of the study, it could be seen that air volumes in diagonal ventilation circuits could also be calculated using numerical formulas or programs if the air volumes and air flow directions to be infused into diagonal branches are determined in advance as with other serial/parallel circuits. To apply the results, design plans for high level radioactive waste repositories applied with diagonal ventilation circuits and parallel ventilation circuits. To compared the each design plans and obtain expected operation results, ventilation network simulations were conducted through the Ventsim program which is a ventilation networking program. Based on the results, in the case of diagonal repositories that was expected to cause great increases in resistance, fan pressure was 1570 pa, total flux was 84 $m^3/s$, fan efficiency was 76.4%, fan power consumption was 181.2 kW and annual fan operating costs were 178,710,838 and thus maximum around 8% differences were shown in pressure and flux values and a difference of around 1.5% was shown in terms of operating costs.

In the summer season, natural ventilation is commonly used to reduce the inside air temperature of greenhouse when it rises above the optimal level. The greenhouse shape, vent design, and position play a critical role in the effectiveness of natural ventilation. In this study, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) was employed to investigate the effect of different roof vent designs along with side vents on the buoyancy-driven natural ventilation. The boussinesq hypothesis was used to simulate the buoyancy effect to the whole computational domain. RNG K-epsilon turbulence model was utilized, and a discrete originates (DO) radiation model was used with solar ray tracing to simulate the effect of solar radiation. The CFD model was validated using the experimentally obtained greenhouse internal temperature, and the experimental and computed results agreed well. Furthermore, this model was adopted to compare the internal greenhouse air temperature and ventilation rate for seven different roof vent designs. The results revealed that the inside-to-outside air temperature differences of the greenhouse varied from 3.2 to $9.6^{\circ}C$ depending on the different studied roof vent types. Moreover, the ventilation rate was within the range from 0.33 to $0.49min^{-1}$. Our findings show that the conical type roof ventilation has minimum inside-to-outside air temperature difference of $3.2^{\circ}C$ and a maximum ventilation rate of $0.49min^{-1}$.

If flammable liquid leaks, vapor evaporated from the pool can cause poisoning or suffocation to workers, leading to secondary accidents such as fires and explosions. To prevent such damage, ventilation facilities shall be installed when designing indoor workplaces. At this time, the behavior varies depending on the characteristics of the leaked chemical, so it is necessary to select a suitable vent location according to the material. Therefore, 3D CFD simulations were introduced to derive optimal vent position and ventilation efficiency was quantitatively evaluated by vent position. At this time, assuming a situation in which flammable liquids leak at indoor workplaces to form pools, the concentration of vapor evaporated from pools was compared to derive the optimal vent position. As a result of research on toluene with high vapor density, ventilation efficiency was confirmed to be the highest at the upper supply-lower exhaust, and it is judged that introducing it can achieve about 3.7 times ventilation effect at the same maintenance cost. Through this study, it is expected that the workplace will be able to secure workers' safety by applying simulation results and installing ventilation ports.
