  • The problem of energy consumption is more serious in university buildings than primary, middle and high school buildings. Because university buildings have generally heating and cooling systems, and various incidental facilities. In university, the library is one of the building that many people use and the most energy is spent. So, investigation on energy saving is very important and urgent. This study aims finally to present the guideline for low-energy design of University library by aiding a designer to select best solution in the side of energy-saving. In this paper, composition of space, utilization schedule and performance of construction materials are grasped, some primary factors that effect to energy saving are analyzed by energy simulation. The result of this study is as follows; First, the subject library has more cooling load than heating load because of cooling load generated during middle season. Second, green roofs is the most effective to heating load saving, but not to cooling energy. Third, outdoor air cooling is the most effective to cooling energy saving among the investigated strategies included in this study.

  • It is difficult to apply a design standard uniformly to university buildings because various education courses are conducted. However, a design guideline for saving energy is necessary in order to prepare for low-energy days. A library in any university is one of the buildings that a lot of people use and most of the energy is spent. Therefore, the investigation on the energy savings of library facilities is very important and urgent. This study finally presents the design guideline of those facilities for low-energy. In this paper, the trend of space layout, utilization schedule and performance of materials are investigated, and the impact on energy savings and effective energy saving strategies are analyzed and illustrated by energy simulation. As a result of energy analysis from the case of 'H' university, it is confirmed that the utilization schedule effects mostly to energy consumption and the layout and orientation of the rooms in the library are the major parameters. Among the investigated saving strategies, green roofs are found as the most effective part for heating energy savings, and outdoor air cooling is known as the most effective method for cooling energy savings.

  • Kylin-2 is an advanced neutronics lattice code, developed by Nuclear Power Institute of China. High-precision multigroup cross section library is need for KYLIN-2 to carry out simulation of current pressurized water reactor (PWR) and advanced reactor. In this paper a multigroup cross section library generation system named TPAMS was developed, the methods in TPAMS dealing with resonance data such as subgroup parameters, lambda factor, resonance integral were discussed. Moreover, the depletion chain simplification method was studied. TPAMS can produce multigroup library in binary and ASIIC formats, including detailed data contents for resonance, transport and depletion calculations. A multigroup cross section library has been generated for KYLIN-2 based on TPAMS system. The multigroup cross section library was verified through the analysis of various criticality and burnup benchmarks, the values of multiplication factor and isotope density were compared with the experiment data. Numerical results demonstrate the accuracy of the multigroup cross section library and the reliability of the multigroup cross section library generation system TPAMS.

  • In the current construction industry where various stakeholders take part, BIM Data exchange using standard format can provide a more efficient working environment for related staffs during the life-cycle of the building. Currently, the formats used to exchange the data from 3D-CAD application to structure energy analysis at the design stages are IFC, the international standard format provided by IAI, and gbXML, developed by Autodesk. However, because of insufficient data compatibility, the BIM data produced in the 3D-CAD application cannot be directly used in the energy analysis, thus there needs to be additional data entry. The reasons for this are as follows: First, an IFC file cannot contain all the data required for energy simulation. Second, architects sometimes write material names on the drawings that are not matching to those in the standard material library used in energy analysis tools. DOE-2.2 and Energy Plus are the most popular energy analysis engines. And both engines have their own material libraries. However, our investigation revealed that the two libraries are not compatible. First, the types and unit of properties were different. Second, material names used in the library and the codes of the materials were different. Furthermore, there is no material library in Korean language. Thus, by comparing the basic library of DOE-2, the most commonly used energy analysis engine worldwide, and EnergyPlus regarding construction materials; this study will analyze the material data required for energy analysis and propose a way to effectively enter these using semantic web's ontology. This study is meaningful as it enhances the objective credibility of the analysis result when analyzing the energy, and as a conceptual study on the usage of ontology in the construction industry.

  • The neutron induced nuclear cross-section data for Pd-105, Ag-109, Xe-131, and Cs-133 were calculated and evaluated from an unresolved energy to 20 MeV. The energy dependent optical model potential parameters were extracted based on recent experimental data and applied up to 20 MeV. A spherical optical model and a statistical model for the equilibrium energy, and a multistep direct and a multistep compound model for the pre-equilibrium energy were used in the calculation. The direct capture model was recently introduced for fast neutron capture. The theoretically calculated cross-sections were compared with the experimental data and the evaluated files. The total and capture cross-sections calculated using the model were in good agreement with the reference experimental data. The evaluated cross-section results were compiled in ENDF-6 format and merged with the resonance component, already adopted in the ENDF/B-VI release 8. New data library files covering from thermal to 20 MeV were created. They are at the preliminary stage of an ENDF/B- VII release.

  • The purpose of this study is to describe the trends and contents of literature in green library and to suggest the research direction on green library. Earlier studies focus on the green library architecture and necessity, after then green library management studies have proliferated. Green library architecture studies have emphasized on 'energy and atmosphere' and 'indoor environmental quality' based upon 5 categories of LEED evaluation system. Green library management studies have focused on library resources recycling and utilizing energy through effective management of library collection. Based on the analysis of literature, five research directions are suggested, such as the number of libraries in an area, library shelf position and space, library space program, collection ratio for library storage, and user studies.

  • Unlike the previous approaches, we analyzed for economic efficiency of renewed heating and cooling systems as the characteristics of space. The purpose of this study is to analysis the energy consumption and economical efficiency of absorption chillers and EHP systems in renovated library. It is important that equipment selection should be considering energy cost as well as space program. In recently, many EHP systems were installed in the building for reducing the energy cost and for seeking the convenience of individual control. In contrast, though absorption chillers have the disadvantage of a central control, absorption chillers are appropriate for the conditions of the library that needs simultaneous operation. The results by payback period method, show that selection of heating and cooling systems should be consider for space program and the characteristics of space.

  • Effect of cross-section libraries on displacements per atom (dpa) was investigated under the spectrum which is calculated in the outer and inner of capsule in the JMTR fuel region. The variation of dpa value of iron was calculated by TENJIN2 code using several cross section libraries (ENDFB-lV, JENDL 3.1 and JENDL 3.2). The dependency of input spectrum on total damage (dpa) is more clearly appeared in case or ENDFB-IV in JENDL 3.2 and JENDL 3.1 libraries. The gas production rate calculated by ENDFB-IV library showed slightly larger value than that by JENDL library, and it responded more sensitively in neutron spectrum.
