Today, natural ventilation systems are widely applied in multi-family housing. However, studies using the wind data trend line of the blower door test are insufficient. Purpose: Through this study, we will propose a computational method about ventilation performance of natural ventilation systems by conducting blower door test. Method: First, we sealed the gaps between the main systems including the natural ventilation system and conducted the blower door test. Next, the natural ventilation system was opened, the blower door test was conducted, and the difference in air flow rate between when closed and when opened was checked. Blower door test was carried out with a pressure difference of 50 Pa. Result: Therefore, the ventilation performance of the natural ventilation system was checked by drawing a trend line using the data to calculate the air flow rate at 2 Pa of the natural ventilation equipment standard pressure difference.

The government has established a zero-energy roadmap in accordance with its 2050 carbon neutrality strategy, and from 2023 onwards, residential buildings with 30 generations or more must be constructed as zero-energy structures. In response to this, measures for energy conservation through enhanced building tightness are being developed. The LH (Land and Housing Corporation) aims to achieve the first-stage building tightness performance targets by 2022 in preparation for this. Currently, South Korea has the "KS L ISO9972 - Building Tightness - Measuring the airtightness of buildings by the fan pressurization method" as the method for measuring building tightness, which was established in 2006 and revised in 2016. In practice, the airtightness is measured using the Blower Door Test method, and it is expressed as ACH50 (the number of air changes per hour at a pressure difference of 50 Pa between the indoor and outdoor environments). This study aims to measure and analyze the airtightness of Happy Homes constructed from 2020 to 2022, categorized by building type.

In this paper, the control of the temperature for the vehicle air conditioner is implemented with the fuzzy controller using a micro controller. The linguistic control rules of the fuzzy controller are separated into two out variables(multi input multi output ; MIMO) : one is those for the blower motor, and the other is those for air mix door. The error in fuzzy controller, the input variable is defined as difference between the reference temperature and the actual temperature in the cabin room. The fuzzy control rules are established from the human operator experience, and based engineering knowledge about the process. The method of the center of gravity is utilized for the defuzzification.

Today, the world energy consumption in buildings occupies more than 30%. In our country, the energy consumption in buildings also occupies 25% of the entire national energy consumption. With the increasing demand of energy saving in architectural fields, there is a more interest in low-energy construction. For these low-energy housings, our country is planning to apply the energy-saving design standards at the level of passive houses in 2017. However, there is still a limitation in energy saving only with the standards on the performance of envelope in buildings. This means that unless a building is airtight even though it was well-insulated, cooling and heating energy consumption will increase due to the infiltration and leakage. Therefore, this study aims to make a comparative analysis of airtight performance by conducting a blower door test on the housings applied with passive designs, analyze the reasons why most houses fall short of the airtightness standards, and complement the airtightness problems in the inadequate parts of the buildings in order to save building energy.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the air tightness of Zero Energy Solar House(ZeSH) and to propose the construction improvement of junctions and penetrations where air infiltration was identified. Air leakage rate were measured by means of blower door test in accordance with ASTM E779-87. The results showed that ZeSH has an excellent airtightness with ACH50/20 (air change per hour at a pressure difference of 50 Pa between inside outside) of 0.34hr-1 and leakage class E by normalized leakage area of ASHRAE.

The purpose of this study is to investigate an airtightness of typical Korean detached houses with field measurements. Air leakage testings by means of blower door test in accordance with ASTM E79-8 were measured in 22 detached dwellings in Daejeon and Geumsan. The results showed that detached dwellings have an average airtightness with ACH50/20 (air chang per hour at a pressure difference of 50 Pa between inside outside) of 0.82 $hr^{-1}$ which is a higher range than for typical apartments and leakage class G by normalized leakage area of ASHRAE.

본 연구에서는 창문형 자연환기장치가 설치된 7개 세대의 소형공동주택($33m^2{\sim}51m^2$)을 대상으로 Blower Door를 이용한 현장 기밀성능 및 공기유동 성능을 측정하였다. 창문형 자연환기장치는 외기에 면하는 모든 창호 및 거실분합문에 설치되어 있으며, 수동 개폐형 장치가 설치되어있다. 본 연구에서는 자연환기장치와 창호의 개폐여부에 따라서 6개의 CASE를 설정하여 실측하였다. 측정결과, 자연환기장치와 모든 개구부를 밀폐한 상태의 기밀성능 값(CASE1)은 1.77~3.12ACH로 평균 2.27ACH로 나타났으며, 문헌조사 결과 자연환기장치가 설치되지 않은 일반 공동주택(1.65~4.28ACH)과 유사하게 나타났다. 내외측의 자연환기장치를 모두 열었을 때의 공기유동성능 값(CASE6)은 평균 5.87ACH로 나타나 밀폐조건과 비교하여 평균 3.6ACH가 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 외측 환기장치와 창호를 밀폐한 조건에서 내측 환기장치만 개방시와 내측창을 개방시의 공기유동성능값의 차이는 평균 0.29ACH로 내측창호 개방시의 기밀성능 값이 높게 나타났다. 반대로 내측 환기장치와 창호를 밀폐한 조건에서 외측 환기장치만 개방시와 외측창 개방시의 차이는 평균 0.30ACH로 외측창호 개방시가 높게 나타났다. 내측창호만의 공기유동성능과 외측창호만의 공기유동성능 측정값의 차이는 0.77ACH로 내측창호가 더 우수하게 나타났다. 향후에는 자연환기장치와 창호 및 새시의 종류에 따른 기밀성능의 추가 측정을 통해 정량적 상관관계 조사가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Recently, the quick heating performance is an important issue in the car because engine power becomes so high. So car makers have been adapted the additional heating devices as like PTC(Positive Temperature Coefficient) heater. And the quick cooling performance is also important issue because its result is used in the IQS(Initial Quality Study). In this paper, control of the HVAC(Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) intake door has been studied for the quick heating and cooling performance. Heating performance is improved $4.0^{\circ}C$ at $-20^{\circ}C$ ambient temperature after 20 minutes. And cooling performance is improved $1.5^{\circ}C$ at $35^{\circ}C$ ambient temperature after 10 minutes. In addition, intake door control system brings on the cost reduction because the flab door can be eliminated. This intake door control system has been adapted to the new developing cars.

Airtightness of buildings is one of critical aspects of its energy performance. To build up references of airtightness of wooden houses built in Korea, blower door tests have been carried out in 42 houses since 2006. Causes of air leakage were investigated recently. The average value of air change rate was $3.7h^{-1}$ for light frame house and $5.5h^{-1}$ for post-beam construction at ACH50 (air change per hour at 50 Pa air pressure difference). Foam type insulation was more advantageous in ensuring building airtightness than glass fiber batt. Airtightness of wooden houses which were constructed after 2010 was improved to have less than $1.5h^{-1}$ of ACH50, threshold for application of artificial air change. The average air change rate of CLT (cross laminated timber) houses showed the lowest value, $1.1h^{-1}$, among the tested structures.

지금까지 우리는 건물분야에서의 합리적인 에너지 사용을 위하여 건물외피의 단열성능을 향상시킴으로써 열손실을 줄이려는 데에 주력하여 왔으며, 침기로 인한 열손실을 줄이려는 노력은 상대적으로 미흡하였다. 그러나, 침기로 인한 난방에너지의 소비가 상당량에 이르는 것으로 조사됨으로써 재실형태에 따라 최소환기기준을 만족시키면서 침기에 의한 불필요한 에너지의 손실을 줄이려는 노력이 매우 유효한 것으로 평가되고 있다. 실제로 침기에 의한 불필요한 에너지의 낭비가 얼마나 되는가를 평가하기 위해서는, 건물에서의 침기율을 정확하게 측정할 수 있는 방법이 전제되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 감압/가압법의 일종인 Blower Door System을 사용하여 공동주택에서의 기밀성능을 측정, 평가함은 물론 측정결과를 토대로 합리적인 수준까지 기밀화할 경우 난방에너지의 절약가능성에 대하여 추정하였다.
