Numerical modeling has been carried out to investigate the two-dimensional air flow in automobile interior with a forced exhaust close to main air inlet for typical ventilation modes. The characteristics such as streamlines and temperature fields in the passenger compartment room with the forced exhaust are analyzed with comparison of the cases without a forced exhaust. The simulation results show that air flow on the floor near the front seat is increased with the forced exhaust for all ventilation modes. Flow recirculation in the cabin is most active in mode 2 with a vertical suction inlet in comparison with other two modes. In particular, less time is taken for air temperature to reach the inlet temperature due to the forced exhaust for the ventilation modes. Finally, it could be predicted that ventilating air flow is much improved with the forced exhaust in the interior Modeling results in this study can be applied to the optimal design of automobile interior fur air ventilation system.

The excavator is used in a variety of construction environments. There are many kinds of risk like falling rocks or harmful dust. The excavator cabin protects the operator not only from these harmful environments but also provides a comfortable working environment. By the way, the excavator cabin consumes a lot of energy for cabin air conditioner. For this reason, the research is required to reduce energy consumption. This study suggests the air conditioning system for excavator using forced exhaust. First, the forced exhaust system simulated by AMESim tool and surveyed the applicability. Using AMESim simulation, it was investigated the effect of cabin inside temperature by intake flow rate and intake air temperature. The experiment executed using the 1.5 ton excavator and field tested according to the intake flow rate. Finally, verified the applicability on the air conditioning system for excavator using forced exhaust.

Exhaust system used in toilet and cooking place of high riser public house is roof fan of two basic types : natural roof ventilator and natural/forced roof ventilator. Natural/forced roof ventilator has a motor in the rotary shaft. There are many high riser public house in Korea. These buildings were not viewed as being major contributors to exhaust pollutants producted in indoor. It was because many engineers thought that exhaust in high riser building depend on stack effect. This study investigates on stack pressure determined by exterior pressure and the difference pressure control in exhaust stack used in high riser public house. This paper focuses mainly on the effect of the time interval for power supply of motor installed in roof fan with function of natural wind velocity and of exhaust air volume of toilet. It is observed there are higher exhaust efficiency than the existing natural roof ventilator.

고층 공공주택의 화장실과 주방에 적용되는 배기 시스템은 기본적으로 두 종류의 환기팬이 적용된다. 가지 기본 유형의 지붕 팬이다. 그 하나가 자연 통풍력을 활용하는 무동력 팬이고 다른 하나는 자연 통풍력이 없을 때, 모터를 활용하여 강제로 구동하는 팬을 적용하는 방식이다. 자연/강제 겸용으로 지붕에 적용되는 환기팬은 회전축에 모터가 있습니다. 대한민국에는 많은 고층건물이 있다. 그러나 고층건물의 환기가 굴뚝효과에 의존된다고 판단하였기 때문에 이러한 건물의 실내에서 발생하는 오염물질의 제거에 대한 관심을 크게 갖지 않고 있다. 본 연구는 외기압력과 초고층아파트에 사용되는 배기연돌에 적용되는 차압에 의해 결정되는 연돌압력을 조사하기 위함이다. 본 논문은 화장실 배기풍량과 대기의 자연풍속을 변수로 하여 루프팬에 설치된 모타의 전력공급시간을 판단함으로써 기존 배기팬보다 향상된 배기효율을 예측하기 위해, 수행되었다.

초장대 철도터널에서는 화재 시 안전성 확보를 위해서 구난역을 설치하도록 하고 있으나, 구난역에서 제연방식 및 제연풍량에 대한 기준이나 연구결과는 없는 실정으로 제연방식과 적정풍량에 대한 연구가 필요한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 서비스터널이나 상대터널과 연결하는 피난연결통로가 일정간격(40 m 간격)으로 설치된 구난역을 모델링하고 화재강도(15, 30 MW), 제연방식(급기만하는 경우, 강제급배기를 하는 경우, 강제배기만을 하는 경우), 제연풍량(7, 14, $40m^3/s$)을 변화시켜 화재해석을 수행하였다. 화재해석결과로 부터 구난역 승강장의 온도 및 CO농도를 분석하고 한계온도 기준 ASET을 비교 분석하였다. 그 결과, 화재강도가 15 MW일 때에는 제연풍량이 $7m^3/s$ 이상인 경우에 강제급배기하는 방식과 강제배연을 하는 방식을 적용하면 충분히 안전한 대피환경을 확보할 수가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 화재강도가 30 MW인 경우에는 배연풍량이 $14m^3/s$ 이하에서는 900초 이상 대피환경을 유지하는 것이 불가능하며, 풍량이 $40m^3/s$일 때에는 상부덕트의 측면부에서 배기하는 경우(SA + EA2, SA + EA4)가 온도측면에서 안전성 확보에 가장 유리한 것으로 나타나고 있다.

Background: Despite growing concern over occupational exposure to particulate matter (PM) such as grain dust and diesel exhaust, information about the exposure level and health implications among workers in small-scale milling enterprises in developing countries like Nigeria has not been adequately documented. The purpose of this study was to assess the level of exposure to grain dust and diesel exhaust and effect on lung function among grain millers in food markets in Ibadan metropolis, Nigeria. Methods: The study adopted descriptive cross-sectional design with a comparative approach. Sixteen grain milling shops each were randomly selected from two major food markets in Ibadan metropolis for indoor $PM_{10}$ and $PM_{2.5}$ monitoring. Seventy-two respondents each were proportionately selected from grain millers and shop owners for forced expiratory volume in one second and peak expiratory flow rate tests. Results: The $PM_{2.5}$ concentrations for both market locations ranged between 1,269.3 and $651.7{\mu}g/m^3$, while $PM_{10}$ concentrations were between 1,048.2 and $818.1{\mu}g/m^3$. The recorded concentrations exceeded the World Health Organization guideline limit of $50{\mu}g/m^3$ and $25{\mu}g/m^3$ for $PM_{2.5}$ and $PM_{10}$, respectively. As compared with control group (2.1 L), significantly lower forced expiratory volume in one second value (1.61 L) was observed among the exposed group (p < 0.05). Likewise, significantly lower peak expiratory flow rate value (186.7 L/min) was recorded among the exposed group than the control group (269.51 L/min) (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Exposure to grain dust and diesel exhaust accentuated respiratory disorders with declines in lung functions amongst grain millers. Improved milling practices and engaging cleaner milling facilities should be adopted to minimize exposure and related hazards.

In the analysis of automobile exhaust system, the exciting forces from the engine determine the dynamic behavior of the system and the dynamic characteristics influence the riding quality. Therefore, the identification of the force in numeric value is quite important for the vibrational reduction. However, the value is difficult to obtain by experiments due to harsh conditions around the engine. In this research, an optimization technology is adopted to evaluate the exciting forces. An experimental method is conducted for the verification of the finite element modeling. Displacements on the end of the exhaust system are measured under the idling environment. cost function is set up to minimize the differences between the displacements of the numerical simulation and the experiment. Design variables are the components of the exciting forces. That is, optimization is utilized to estimate the forces with existing data. Excellent estimations have been calculated efficiently and the information is used again for the forced vibration of the exhaust system.
