Daylighting in building is very important as it has an effect on work performance as well as on their visual health. It is also regarded as a good energy conservation measure in saving energy used for lighting. There are many daylighting evaluation tools such as empirical equations, tables, nomograms, diagrams, protractors, computer simulation, scale models. This study conducted initial daylight measurements to analyze luminous environment in classrooms of elementary school and comparative analysis on three daylighting evaluation tools, such as daylight factor calculation formula, the graphic method with BRE Protractor and computer simulation with Adeline 3.0. It is found that the computer simulation tool produced the closest result to actual measurements of luminous environment in elementary school classroom, and the other simplified tools made appropriate results so that they can be used in the early stage of daylighting design process.

본 연구는 발전부문에서 에너지 정책의 목표인 에너지 안보와 기후변화 대책 간의 상호보완성을 고려하면서 최저 비용을 기준으로 도출된 발전 구성비를 나타내었다. 에너지 안보의 수준을 측정하기 위해 에너지 안보 가격지수를 도입하여 화석연료의 공급 집중도에서 비롯된 안보 위협을 평가하였다. CSC 방법론의 적용을 통해 원자력과 육상풍력이 석탄가스화 복합발전 및 미분탄 화력발전을 대체하는 경우가 비용효율적인 대체안으로 나타났으며, 잠재적인 탄소 감축 가능량 및 안보 개선폭을 확인하였다. 또한 이러한 대체안이 탄소 감축뿐만 아니라 에너지 안보의 개선을 달성하는 상호보완성을 확인하였다. 추가적인 에너지 안보의 개선을 위해서는 화석연료의 해외자원개발을 통한 에너지 자급률을 제고하는 것이 최선의 대안으로 나타났으며, 이를 기반으로 2020년의 특정 목표치를 달성하기 위해 최저 비용을 나타내는 발전구성비를 도출하였다.

This paper proposes an unified definition of powers for various circuit conditions such as balanced/unbalanced, sinusoidal/non-sinusoidal, and linear/nonlinear, for single-phase systems and three-phase systems. Conventional reactive power is more classified into an interactive power and a scattering power. These powers are defined both in the time domain and the frequency domain consistently, and agree well with the conservation law. Several important power quality factors are defined to measure and evaluate the power quality for the various circuits in the single-phase and three-phase systems. Simulation results show the power quality factors can evaluate and classify the various circuit conditions clearly.

Buildings are responsible of major energy consumption globally. In addition, they are linked to thermal comfort. The need to provide comfort becomes more crucial in schools as they are the place where students learn, and develop their skills. This research aims to investigate the energy responsiveness of new and traditional school building design, where major variation in form, amount of external walls and glazing are different. The research focused on indoor microclimate condition of selected schools in the city of Jeddah where the climate is hot and humid using advanced tools for monitoring. The research uses advanced energy equipment to measure several aspects such as floor temperature, roof temperature, globe temperature and other factors which can lead to predictable thermal comfort of users. The findings suggest that a larger area of glazing shielded from sunlight has a greater influence on both indoor condition and general thermal sensation. The finding also suggests that the glazing ratio is a major contributor on indoor thermal pattern which can result in an increase in temperature profile between from $7-10^{\circ}C$. The findings of this research can assist in the improvement in the design of the prototype school building in hot and humid climate.

Data fusion is an attractive technology because it allows various trade-offs related to performance metrics, e.g., energy, latency, accuracy, fault-tolerance and security in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Under a complicated environment, each sensor node must be equipped with more than one type of sensor module to monitor multi-targets, so that the complexity for the fusion process is increased due to the existence of various physical attributes. In this paper, we first investigate the process and performance of multi-attribute fusion in data gathering of WSNs, and then propose a self-adaptive threshold method to balance the different change rates of each attributive data. Furthermore, we present a method to measure the energy-conservation efficiency of multi-attribute fusion. Based on our proposed methods, we design a novel energy equilibrium routing method for WSNs, viz., multi-attribute fusion tree (MAFT). Simulation results demonstrate that MAFT achieves very good performance in terms of the network lifetime.

The Korean government is planning to invest a lot of funds for conservation of the soil. Accordingly, it needs quantitative information on the soil. This paper attempts to analyze the total value of soil quantitatively: the total economic value of soil can be divided into use value and non-use value. To this end, we apply a replacement cost method (RCM) and contingent valuation method (CVM). Especially, CVM is most widely used to measure the non-use value such as environment goods. We employed the one-and-one-half-bounded dichotomous choice (OOHBDC) for willingness to pay (WTP) elicitation and a spike model. The monthly mean WTP was estimated to be KRW 3,949 per household for the next 10 years, which is statistically significant at the 1% level. Expanding the value to the relevant population gives us KRW 897.9 billion per year and as of the end of 2015, the non-use value of soil was assessed to be KRW 838.6 billion. Meanwhile, use value is subdivided into direct use value and indirect use value. This value was calculated KRW 3,277 trillion and KRW 51.8 trillion, respectively. As a result, total economic value of soil is estimated to be KRW 3,330 trillion in Korea.
