This study aims to analyze characteristics of Cell surface temperature and generated power performance for improving PV(Photovoltaic) system condition according to the cell opening ratio of transparent crystal PV system at Spandrel of curtain-wall. For this purpose, alternatives were classified for eight different cases that opening ratio of transparent crystal PV system varied from 0% to 70%, which was used by simulation tool, EnergyPlus. As results, it turned out that increasing opening ratio of transparent crystal PV system led higher PV surface temperature, back-sheet type was thus the most advantageous for decreasing surface temperature, annual generating efficiency, and annual accumulated generating power. Consequently, blocking off air space from outside insolation can advantageously keep to be better condition for generated power performance.

Tall buildings are frequently decried as unsustainable due to their excessive energy usage. Early skyscrapers used natural light and ventilation to facilitate human comfort and applied organic materials such as stone, glass, wood, concrete, and terra cotta for cladding and finishes. With the advent of fluorescent lighting, modern heating, ventilation, air-conditioning (HVAC) systems, and thermally sealed curtain walls, tall office buildings no longer had to rely on natural light and ventilation to provide comfort. Energy efficiency was not a significant factor when the operational costs of buildings were relatively inexpensive. However, today's skyscrapers must become more energy-efficient and sustainable due to energy crises and climate change. This paper highlights vital energy-efficient design principles and demonstrates with illustrative case studies how they are applied to tall buildings in various parts of the world. It shows how sustainable environmental systems do not act alone but are integrated with advanced curtain wall systems, sky gardens, and atria, among others, to regulate and sustain thermal comfort and conserve energy.

Numerical analysis has been conducted to investigate the fluid flow and fume mixing ratio characteristics of scattering fume in a push-pull ventilation system and optimally improve the flow patterns of scattering fume in the existing ventilation system. This ventilation system has been simulated by using commercial CFD code. In the case of the existing system, although the air is sprayed from air-curtain to prevent the fume from being scattered in upper hood, the improved air supply hood can remove the fume from the wide area in the high pressure. It is verified that the deeper plating storage is more advantageous. Also, by installing the shied around the plating storage, the scattering of the fume to the atmosphere was prevented effectively by surrounding flux.

외래어종의 유입은 토종어류의 감소 및 수중생태계의 교란을 가져올 수 있기 때문에 어류의 차단 및 관리 방안은 반드시 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 외래어종의 유입을 차단하기 위해 버블을 이용한 어류 차단 시스템을 개발하였으며 실험수로를 제작하여 차단 가능성을 평가하였다. 버블 발생장치는 공기압축기로 공기를 발생시켜 버블커튼을 만든 후 어류를 차단하는 시스템이며 실험어류는 국내 외래어종인 파랑볼우럭을 대상으로 하였다. 파랑볼우럭의 크기는 0.10 m ~ 0.15 m이며 수심은 0.70 m를 유지하였다. 실험수로의 유속은 어류의 유영능력을 고려하여 3단계로(0.20 m/s, 0.10 m/s, 0.05 m/s) 나누어 실시하였다. 실험 결과 파랑볼우럭은 버블 적용 전 70.07%가 상류로 거슬러 올라가려는 움직임을 보였으며 하류를 서식처로 생각해 움직임이 거의 없는 개체를 고려하면 어류 소상률은 더 높을 것으로 판단된다. 그러나 차단시설을 설치할 경우 대부분의 어류가 버블커튼에 의해 다시 하류로 회귀하는 움직임을 보여 차단효과가 매우 높게 나타났다. 특히 버블을 종료할 경우 빠른 시간 내 다시 상류로 거슬러 올라간 것으로 보아 버블을 이용한 어류 차단효과는 뛰어난 것으로 판단된다.

Generally, among many kinds of shading devices such as venetian blind, sunscreen, louver and curtain, venetian blind is using widely because the mechanism is so simple and easy to use solar insolation by controlling the slat angle. Analysis of time dependent heat transfer through the window with venetian blind is very important in order to use it effectivly. Therefore, in this study, theoretical thermal analysis method was developed to analyze time dependent heat transfer through a double pane window with and without venetian blind, and was made one module of TRNSYS(A Transient Simulation Program)program. By this way, it was analyzed that how much the variation of slat angle, slat colour and slat absorptivity of venetian blind would be affected on the heating and cooling load of building, and also which colour and angle of slat was optimal for the heating and cooling load of building.

It is widely recognized that conventional means for determining the minimum ignition energy(MIE) of powder are time-consuming and require operational skill. As a variety of new fine powders are being produced day by day in industry, there is an urgent need to a quicker and more economical means to measure MIE. To meet this requirement, we have developed a measurement system which employs a novel method to create an air/dust mixture in a miniature combustion box. In this system, the powder to be tested input into a hopper made of metal mesh, and successively fed downward to form a thin, curtain-like dust/air mixture by vibration. With this new apparatus, three type of powders -Lycopodium, Anthraquinone, and Polyacrylonitrile-were tested and the MIE data were compared with those taken with a conventional apparatus(the Hartmann tube). Two of them agreed satisfactory, but the other, anthraquinone, showed quite different values supposedly due to the agglomeration of the powder particles by static-charge.

The present study is to reduce the thermal phenomena and stack effect of nude elevator of the high-rise building used CFD simulation. Since many High-rise buildings used the curtain-wall glass, thermal phenomena and stack effect can easily occur at hot and cold season, respectively. The simulation has been conducted and verified for the effects of the amount of suppling air to the environment of the inside nude elevator shaft. The results of simulations show that the problems due to the thermal and stack effect will be reduced by enforced ventilation or natural ventilation and those will be presented by temperature and velocity profiles and pressure differences.

Recently residential buildings are characterized with high-rise and high density. Under this circumstance, achieving comfortable and healthy indoor environment with minimized energy consumption becomes a very challenging engineering and societal issue. Along this the increased size and transparency of window as well as light surface caused by high stories lowers the heat shield efficiency of building. Since glass that constitutes building surface has low heat efficiency, it aggravates heat loss of all building considerably, thereby resulting in extreme heating load and cooling load in the country where temperature varies much in summer and winter. The research will check whether experiment can be effectively done by overcoming the limit of existing artificial solar laboratory constructed in the country and properly adjusting controlled variables with simplified function through construction of this experimental set.

This paper describes the experimental thermal performance results of four experimental model buildings insulated differently. For the purpose of examining the thermal characteristics of external walls and indoor thermal conditions, four experimental model buildings are constructed as externally insulated, internally insulated, non-insulated &light-weight curtain wall types with different K-values and heat capacities, respectively.
Through the measurements of temperatures at various points and solar insolation, the effects of insulation and heat capacities are evaluated, and the evaluated effects of each experimental model buildings are compared. Hence, the characteristics of temperature profiles, time-lag effects and decrement factors are discovered.

Curtainwall systems has been applied to buildings widely for constructability. However, as cutainwall system include many building materials, they become to damaged vapor barrier and incur condensation. Natural ventilation of an air cavity in a curtainwall is expected to be an prevention of condensation in inner wall and reduce cooling energy in summer. The objective of this experimental study is to evaluating the insulation and condensation Performance of ventilated curtainwall with ventilated cavity depth and ratio of opening area.
