  • This research examined consumption-based carbon emission reduction by nuclear energy consumption and environmental tax while considering the context of trade globalization in the highest five emitter nations from 1990 to 2020. This study used various empirical methodologies, including preliminary analysis to check the stationarity and cointegration, the CS-ARDL for long-run analysis, CCEMG, AMG for robustness, and the D-H causality test for short-term pairwise causation. The results indicated that nuclear energy consumption, environmental tax, and trade globalization help to mitigate consumption-based carbon emissions while economic growth and population density boost carbon emissions. Furthermore, the results also found two-way casual connection exists between nuclear energy consumption, population density, and consumption-based carbon emissions. Thus, the results emphasize the need for government policies that encourage nuclear energy and environmental tax as a strategy to reduce carbon emissions and achieve and maintain environmental development.

  • The basic heat transfer process that occurs in a building can best be illustrated by an electrical circuit network. Present paper reports the dynamic simulation of annual energy consumption in an office building by the thermal resistance capacitance network method. Unsteady thermal behaviors and annual energy consumption in an office building were examined in detail by solving the simultaneous circuit equations of thermal network. The results are used to evaluate the accuracy of the modified BIN method for the energy consumption analysis of a large building. Present thermal resistance-capacitance method predicts annual energy consumption of an office building with the same accuracy as that of response factor method. However, the modified BIN method gives 15% lower annual heating load and 25% lower cooling load than those from the present method. Equipment annual energy consumptions for fan, boiler and chiller in the HVAC system are also calculated for various control systems as CAV, VAV, FCU+VAV and FCU+CAV. FCU+CAV system appears to consume minimum annual energy among them.

  • 최근 유가 상승과 건물 에너지 소비 증가는 에너지 자원 해외 의존도가 높은 우리나라에 큰 부담이 되고 있다. 이런 상황에서 에너지 소비량의 40% 수준을 차지하는 빌딩건물의 에너지절감은 매우 중요한 이슈가 되는데, 본 연구는 ICT를 활용하여 건물에너지 소비량 및 전력사용요금 절감을 하는 최적제어방법을 구현한 실증 분석을 병원을 대상으로 수행하였다. 먼저 기존의 냉난방용 흡수식 냉온수기와 급탕용 보일러시설 일부를 수축열 히트펌프로 대체하고 사용하는 요금제의 조정을 통해 에너지소비량을 줄이고 요금을 절감하였다. 여기에 환경(외기온도, 사용량 증감 등) 변화를 고려한 ICT 기반 최적제어 기능을 추가적으로 적용함으로 기존 설비 대체 중심의 에너지절감 방법과 ICT 기반의 최적제어방법까지 고려한 효과를 분석하였다. 그 결과 본 연구에서 병원 대상의 최적제어방법은 에너지효율화 설비 적용으로 인한 절감량(53.6%)에 최적자동제어 효과(18.2%)까지 추가적으로 절감할 수 있는 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구 결과를 바탕으로 건물 에너지 절감 성과를 높이는 다양한 방안을 검토해 볼 수 있을 것이다.

  • Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the status of caffeine-containing energy drink consumption among Korean nursing students and to identify associated psychological factors. Methods: In total, 187 Korean nursing students participated in this cross-sectional study. A self-administered questionnaire was used to identify participants' general characteristics and psychosocial factors (self-esteem, academic stress, depression, and college adjustment) associated with energy drink consumption. Data were analyzed with SPSS using descriptive statistics, the $x^2$ test, the t-test, and logistic regression. Results: More than two-thirds (73.3%) of the participants had consumed energy drinks. Among the investigated psychological factors, depression appeared to most strongly influence energy drink consumption behaviors in this population. Conclusion: The consumption of caffeine-containing energy drinks was found to be common among nursing students preparing to become health care professionals; depressed nursing students were more likely to have consumed energy drinks than non-depressed students. Nursing educators should emphasize the early detection of unhealthy beverage consumption habits and provide appropriate education to enhance healthy behaviors in future health care professionals.

  • In this study, we analyzed five-year(2011~2015) data for D high school in Seoul area to analyze energy consumption characteristics in high school. The results are summarized as follows. (1) In the result of comparison analysis about 2015 energy consumption by usage, based on primary energy, 18% of energy was consumed in cafeteria, and 82% was consumed in main building. In the case of main building, base and constant load excepting hot water supply in restroom took 40%, heating including freeze protection took 20%, hot water supply in restroom took 14%, and cooling took 8% in order. (2) In the 2015 total energy consumption in D high school based on primary energy, heating energy takes 28%. The range and limit of energy savings coming from the reinforcement of insulation and window performance could be estimated. (3) To introduce new & renewable energy system in high school, electricity-based system is suitable than heat-based system because usage of electric energy is larger than that of heat energy in high school. (4) Five-year energy consumption unit according to heating degree-day showed a linearly increasing trend, and the coefficient of determination(R2) was 0.9763, which means high correlation.

  • This paper reports the Survey results from a field monitoring study of office occupancy densities. The field measurement of a office in Yongin was carried out from 19 September to 30 September 2011. The survey has an aim to reveal the building energy consumption relationship between occupancy densities of a realistic office and the previous studies. The results showed that hourly occupied density of the previous studies is more higher than a field survey. we investigated the effects of difference occupancy densities on annual heating and cooling energy consumption using EnergyPlus. Heating and cooling consumption was raised because of the increased occupancy density. therefore, accurately measure the occupnacy schedule is important in order to reduce excessive building energy consumption, and is an significant element to be considered in the energy simulation.

  • considerate operation is a major issue in the equipment-intensive operation. Identifying an optimal equipment combination is important to achieve low-energy operations. An Earthwork operation planning system, which measures the energy consumption of construction operations by taking into account construction equipments' engineering attributes (e.g., weight, capacity, energy consumption rate, etc.) and operation conditions (e.g., road condition, attributes of materials to be moved, geometric information, etc.), is essential to achieve the low-energy consumption. This study develops an automated computerized system which identifies an optimal earthmoving equipment fleet minimizing the energy consumption. The system imports a standard template of earthmoving operation model and compares numerous scenarios using alternative equipment allocation plans. It finds the fleet that minimizes the energy consumption by enumerating all cases using sensitivity analysis. A case study is presented to verify the validity of the system.

  • 온실가스 배출 감소 및 에너지소비량을 감소시키기 위하여 많은 정책들이 수립되고 있다. 그러나 이러한 정책은 건축물의 에너지 소비 특성을 고려하지 않고 건축물에 대하여 일괄적인 에너지 절감률을 적용하고 있다. 일괄적인 에너지소비량 절감율을 일괄적으로 적용할 경우, 에너지소비량이 적은 건축물은 이를 달성 할 수 없다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 건축물의 에너지소비특성에 따른 건축물 분류와 건축물의 에너지소비량에 따른 개별적인 에너지소비량 절감률 산정 방법에 대하여 연구하였다. 에너지소비량 특성 분석결과 건축물의 용도에 따라 에너지소비량 차이가 있음이 나타났다. 또한 이를 바탕으로 건축물을 분류하였다. 또한 기존의 건축물 에너지절감과 관련한 제도들을 분석하여 건축물의 에너지소비량 절감 목표 및 대상 등을 선정하였고. 이을 바탕으로 에너지소비량에 따른 에너지 소비량 절감률 공식을 제안하였다. 또한 서울시 공공건축물 중 제1종 근린생활시설에 본 연구에서 제안한 공식을 적용할 경우 국가 온실가스 배출로드맵에서 목표로 하고 있는 절감률 26%를 달성할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 건축물의 개별적인 목표 에너지절감률을 산정할 수 있지만, 건축물 목표 에너지 절감률을 실제건축물에 반영하기 위해서는 건축물의 에너지소비량과 에너지소요량의 관계 및 건축물에서 절감 가능한 에너지소비량에 대한 연구가 필요하다.
