Recently, the requirement of healthier and more comfortable environment makes the zoning domain more details. However, it has limitation to satisfy the thermal comfort of an individual because of the effect of the heat generation from the OA machine and partitions in indoor room. In this paper, we certify the validity of task-ambient air-conditioning system that has been developed as a new concept of personal air-conditioning system, and specify design strategies for more efficient task-ambient air-conditioning system with a specification guided by indoor environmental characteristics analyzed through experiment data. In this experiment, we changed the temperature and the quantity of air-flow in task domain to understand characteristic behavior of the thermal environment and investigate the possibility of energy saving. The experiment result is that the environment of the task area depends on the condition of supply air, and though the airflow of the low temperature is supplied with the ambient area, the personal environment and the efficiency of energy saving are improved by controlling the temperature and the quantity of the air shot around the task domain.

Characteristics of a diesel spray impingement with the variation of ambient temperature, wall temperature and ambient pressure were investigated through shadowgraphy method by using high speed camera. The radial penetration of spray was increased with ambient temperature and wall temperature. It is resulted from the decrease of ambient gas density caused by the increase of temperature. The height of spray was also increased with ambient temperature and wall temperature, because the height of stagnate region is noticeably increased, although height of wall jet vortex is decreased. At the same ambient pressure, the area ratio of impinging spray of room temperature environment to high temperature environment was increased, as the temperature difference between room temperature and high temperature increases. And the increment of area ratio was higher at low ambient pressure than high ambient pressure.

This study was carried out to investigate the concentrations of Ni, Cr and Cu, to analyze the correlations among those, and between concentrations and traffic volumes by type of car in roadside ambient air at Chongro-, Chungkechon- and Kangnam terminal- area in Seoul from October 1st to October 31st in 1997. The results were as follows ; 1. The means of concentrations of Ni in roadside ambient air were 34.1, 25.1 and 23.6 ng/m$^3$ at Chungkechon, Kangnam terminal and Chongro area, respectively. The highest concentrations of Ni by time were 26.8 in the evening, 45.5 in the evening and 49.4 ng/m$^3$ in the forenoon at Chongro, Chungkechon and Kangnam terminal area, respectively. 2. The means of concentrations of Cr in road side ambient air were 97.7, 80.1 and 70.9 ng/m$^3$ at Chong, Chungkechon and Kangnam terminal area, respectively. The highest concentrations of Cu by time were 205.3 in the evening, 114.4 in the evening and 92.3 ng/m$^3$ in the forenoon at Chongro, Chungkechon and Kangnam terminal area, respectively. 4. The tendencies of concentrations of Ni and Cr by time were similar to each other. Especially, at Kangnam terminal area, correlation coefficients between concentrations of Ni and Cr and the traffic volume of bus were high(r=0.997,0.975). 5. The tendency of concentration of Cu and the traffic volume of passenger car at each area were high(r=0.832, 0.968) 6. Correlation coefficients between Cu and Zn, and between Ni and Cr were 0.762 and 0.842, respectively. This means that the possibility of co-existence of Cu-Zn or Ni-Cr is very high.

Air pollution from the Daegu industrial complex (Die) in Korea has been a common nuisance and cause of complaints for nearby residents. The current study measured the indoor and outdoor levels of six VOC (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and three isomeric xylenes) at two residential areas with a different proximity to the ODIC, plus the ambient levels at two industrial areas within the boundary of the DDIC. The QA/QC program included the range of correlation coefficient (0.94-0.99) for calibration curves, within the permissible range. Toluene was the most abundant VOC in the ambient air both in residential and industrial areas. Both indoor and outdoor air concentrations of all target VOC except benzene were higher in residential area near the DIC compared to that further away from the DIC. Moreover, the ambient air concentrations of all target VOC except benzene for two industrial sites (A and B) were significantly higher than the outdoor or indoor air concentrations in the two residential areas. The findings further suggested that VOC ambient levels measured in a residential area near the DIC be used as a potential indicator of odor-causing unidentified air pollutants transported from the DIC. Moreover, it was found that the elevated ambient toluene levels outweighed the indoor sources with respect to the environmental exposure of residents nearby the DIC. However, in the residential area further away from the DIC, the toluene indoor sources outweighed the outdoor sources.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the overall spray behavior characteristics for various injection conditions in a gasoline direct injection(GDI) injector with multi-hole. The spray characteristics, such as the spray penetration, the spray angle, and the injection quantity, were studied through the change of the injection pressure, the ambient pressure, and the energizing duration in a high-pressure chamber with a constant volume. The n-heptane with 99.5% purity was used as the test fuel. In a constant volume chamber, the injected spray was visualized by the spray visualization system, which consisted of the high-speed camera, the metal-halide lamp, the injector control device, and the image analysis system with the image processing program. It was revealed that the injection quantity was mainly affected by the difference between the injection pressure and the ambient pressure. For low injection pressure conditions, the injection quantity was decreased by the increase of the ambient pressure, while it nearly maintained regardless of the ambient pressure at high injection pressure. According to the increase of the ambient pressure in the constant volume chamber, the spray development became slow, consequently, the spray tip penetration decreased, and the spray area increased. In additions, the circular cone area decreased, and the vortex area increased.

한국과 일본의 환경대기 시료를 대상으로 PCB 전이성질체 분석을 통하여, 오염정도 및 이성질체 분포 특성을 파악하고 통계적 처리기법을 통하여 발생원을 추정하였다. 환경대기 중 PCB 농도는 한국이 $0.003{\sim}1.01\;pgTEQ/m^3$ (평균 $0.22\;pgTEQ/m^3$), 일본이 $0.002{\sim}0.014\;pgTEQ/m^3$(평균 $0.007\;pgTEQ/m^3$)으로 나타났다. 한국의 환경대기 중 PCB 농도는 공단지역이 도시지역간의 농도 변화폭이 매우 크게 나타났다. 이성질체 분포에 있어서는 대체로 유사한 경향을 나타내었으나 한국의 공단 지역에서는 $7{\sim}10CB$의 고염소화 동족체가 검출되어 특정한 오염원이 존재할 가능성이 시사되었다. 주성분 분석을 통하여 한국과 일본의 환경대기 중 PCB 오염원을 추정한 결과 한국 환경대기 시료가 일본 환경대기 시료에 비하여 소각로 영향을 많이 받고 있으며 PCB 제품 영향은 일본에 비해 상대적으로 적은 것으로 판단된다.

The ambient air is commonly used as low-temperature heat source for heat pump operation. However, the coefficient of performance(COP) of the air to water heat pump is decreased with the ambient air temperature drop. In this study to solve this problem, the AVACTHE(Automatic Variable Area Capillary Type Heat Exchanger) with 3 levels of heat exchange area(0, 1,495.4, 1,794.5$\textrm{cm}^2$)was installed in the refrigerant circuit of the heat pump. The AVACTHE effect on the performance of heat pump was tested with the ambient air temperature variation. The COP improvement of the heat pump could be achieved by the AVACTHE installation when below -5$^{\circ}C$ of the ambient air temperature.

We investigated the concentration degree of VOCs for ambient air in the air environment control area of Kyonggi-do in 2001. The VOCs showing higher concentration were in the ascending order of Toluene > n-Butane > 1-Butene > Benzene > n-Hexane. The concentration distribution ratio mentioned above showed almost same pattern in each city. The relative concentration ratio of Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene, Xylenes which are aromatic VOCs were 1 : 6.3 : 0.6 : 1.6. It was similar to the pattern in 1999 but different from the pattern in 2000. In the aspect of seasons, the highest B.T.E.X concentration was indicated in fall and in the aspect of areas, the higher concentration showed in the ascending order of Buchon > Ansan > Kwangmyong > Shihung > Sungnam. The average concentration of target VOCs for ambient air in the air environment control area of Kyonggi-do showed lower concentration than the metropolis of Seoul but higher concentration than Kwang-ju city and Dae-gu city. The amount of total VOCs was increasing, comparing with it last year and the more increasing tendency is anticipated so that it will need to establish the proper regulative criteria.
