Mineral hydrate is a new insulation material that compensates for the defects of existing materials. Mineral hydrate is made of inorganic ingredients; therefore, it is nonflammable. The porous structure of mineral hydrate makes the material lightweight and insulating. Mineral hydrate insulation and similar products have been studied and manufactured in Korea and abroad. However, these insulation materials need to improve in terms of strength. In this study, basalt fiber was used to enhance the strength. In order to observe the property changes, compressive strength, heat conductivity, and specific gravity were measured and XRD pattern analysis was performed. These tests confirmed that basalt fiber was effective at improving the strength and lowering the heat conductivity of mineral hydrate insulation.

In shipyards hull forming is performed by the line heating method using a gas torch and by cold treatment using a roll-press. However, this forming process has some issues, such as difficulties in controlling and accurately estimating the amount of the heat input, as well as a harsh working environment due to exposure to loud noises and air pollution. The induction heating method, which is introduced in this paper, exhibits good control and allows for the estimation of precise heat input. Also, workers can carry out the induction heating in a comfortable working environment. In this research, the induction heating simulation, which consists of electro-magnetic, heat transfer and thermal elasto-plastic analysis, was developed and modified through induction heating experiments. Finally, the effective heating coil was designed for the automatic hull forming system based on the results of induction heating simulation. For the purposes of a future study, if an algorithm to obtain optimal working conditions is developed, automatic systems for hull forming can then be constructed.

Groundwater heat pump (GWHP) system can achieve higher performance of the system by utilizing heat source of the annual constant groundwater temperature. The performance of GWHP system depends on the ground thermal environment such as groundwater temperature, groundwater flow rate and hydraulic conductivity. In this study, the geothermal environment was analyzed by using numerical simulation for develop the two-well geothermal system. As the result, this paper shows the change of the groundwater level and underground temperature around wells according to the conditions of flow rate and hydraulic conductivity.

In this study, the high-resolution numerical simulations considering detailed anthropogenic heat, albedo, emission and roughness length are analyzed by using single layer Urban Canopy Model (UCM) in Weather Research Forecast (WRF). For this, improved urban parameter data for Seoul Metropolitan Area (SMA) was collected from global data. And then the parameters were applied to WRF-UCM model after it was processed into 2-dimensional topographical data. The 6 experiments were simulated by using the model with each parameter and verified against observation from Automated Weather Station (AWS) and flux tower for the temperature and sensible heat flux. The data for sensible heat flux of flux towers on Jungnang and Bucheon, the temperature of AWS on Jungnang, Gangnam, Bucheon and Neonggok were used as verification data. In the case of summer, the improvement of simulation by using detailed anthropogenic heat was higher than the other experiments in sensible flux simulation. The results of winter case show improved in all simulations using each advanced parameters in temperature and sensible heat flux simulation. Improvement of urban parameters in this study are possible to reflect the heat characteristics of urban area. Especially, detailed application of anthropogenic heat contributed to the enhancement of predicted value for sensible heat flux and temperature.

Today's cities require deeper understanding of the thermal environment and PM₁₀ as their management becomes more critical. Based on these circumstances, this study investigated the Granger causality between the thermal environment and PM₁₀ of the 25 districts of Seoul, the most populous and urbanized city in Korea. The results of the Granger causality test on the thermal environment and PM₁₀ were classified into 12 types. Except for type 12, the temperature and urban island heat intensity of the other 11 types operated as a Granger-cause to each other in both directions. Temperature operates as a Granger-cause of urban island heat intensity in type 12. The PM₁₀ level and urban pollution island intensity operated as a Granger-cause to each other in all districts. For types 1 and 2, thermal environment operated as a Granger-cause to PM₁₀ in one direction, and type 3-type 12 confirmed that thermal environment and PM₁₀ operated as a Granger-cause in both directions. Findings reveal the intricate causalities between thermal environment and PM₁₀ at the district level and suggest mitigation strategies that are more location based.

도시의 개발과 고밀화는 도시공간의 기온이 주변지역보다 높아지는 도시열섬(Urban Heat Island)현상의 원인이 되고 있으며, 도시열섬현상은 기후변화와 함께 그 강도가 증가하고 있다. 이와 더불어 여름철 도시의 대기온도가 상승할 때 소득이 낮은 계층, 고령인구, 건강에 문제가 있는 사회적 취약계층은 높아진 열환경에 대처할 수 있는 능력이 부족하다. 따라서 본 연구의 목적은 서울시의 열섬지역을 공간통계 기법인 Hotspot 분석을 통해 도출하고, 로지스틱 회귀분석을 활용하여 열섬지역의 물리적 환경과 인구 및 사회경제적 특성을 분석하는 것이다. 서울시 423개 행정동을 대상으로 동별 평균 대기온도를 이용하여 도시열섬 Hotspot 분석을 실행한 결과, 서울시 중구, 종로구, 용산구, 영등포구에서 도시열섬 지역이 집중적으로 분포하는 것을 확인하였다. 로지스틱 회귀분석을 통해 열섬지역의 물리적 환경 특성을 분석한 결과, 주거시설 연면적 비율, 상업시설 연면적 비율, 용적률, 불투수면 비율, 정규화식생지수(NDVI)가 열섬지역에 영향을 미치는 유의한 변수로 나타났다. 또한, 열섬지역의 인구 및 사회·경제적 특성을 고려한 열환경 취약지역을 분석한 결과, 기초생활수급자 비율, 독거노인 비율, 기초생활수급을 받는 독거노인 비율 등이 유의한 변수로 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과는 도시열섬현상에 영향을 미치는 물리적 환경변수를 도출하고 사회적 취약계층의 공간적 분포와 도시열섬지역이 중첩되어 있는 지역을 판별함으로써 향후 취약계층을 고려한 도시 열환경 설계와 정책 개발에 있어 시사점을 제공할 것으로 기대한다.

Researches on unused energy are being continued because of the limited fossil fuel and the destruction of environment. Therefore this study was peformed as follows. The collectable amount of exhausted heat for an air-conditioning was calculated by the subway thermal environment prediction program. And the electric power needed by conventional heat source equipments was compared with one by unused heat source equipments when the exhausted heat was used by heat pump in heating and hot water supplying. The results are summarized as follows; 1) Forced ventilation should be conducted to keep optimal temperature in subway tunnel in summer as well as in winter. According to the simulation, temperature in tunnel was higher than that on the ground in summer when the forced ventilation was conducted only in winter. 2) Ventilating time should be calculated out to the optimal condition for not only saving power of ventilation fan but reusing exhausted heat. By the simulation, it is certain that the exhausted heat should be eliminated in air-conditioning time. 3) The use of exhausted heat source heat pump could save 8% of electric power per hour in comparison with existing heat pump. It was based on a present heat generation and traffic for ventilating time of general air-conditioning, but could be different by ventilating time. 4) As the traffic increases up to 1.5 or 2 times, electric power consumption of the conventional heat pump increases to 11% or 13.5% per mean hour in comparison with that of the exhausted heat source heat pump, though all-day ventilation.

주기적인 고온환경 부가와 백삼 및 홍삼 추출물의 투여가 흰쥐의 체중, 식이섭취량, 혈액성분, 장기중량 및 간의 지질과 산화에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 흰쥐를 이용한 동물모델 실험결과, 매일 $38^{\circ}C$에서 5시간씩 7일간 고온환경을 부가한 경우 주당 평균체중 증가률이 감소하는 현상이 관찰되었으나 뚜렷한 식이섭취량 변화는 없었다. 반면 고온환경 부가전후에 백삼과 홍삼 추출물을 투여한 경우에는 고온환경 부가에 따른 평균 체중증가률 감소가 억제되었다. 고온환경 부가에 의한 혈액성분 변화를 살펴본 결과에서는 적혈구수와 혈색소량은 큰 차이를 나타내지 않았으나 백혈구수는 다소 증가하는 경향을 나타내었으며 인삼 추출물 투여는 백혈구수 증가도 억제하는 효과를 나타내었다. 고온환경 부가에 따라 장기중 간장의 중량비가 감소하였고 간의 MDA 함량이 크게 증가하였다. 인삼 추출물 투여시에 고온환경부가에 따른 간의 중량감소 및 MDA 함량 증가 등의 변화도 억제되는 효과가 있었다. 특히 간의 중량변화 및 간의 지질과산화 억제효과에 있어서는 백삼보다 홍삼 추출물의 효과가 다소 우수하였으며 통계학적으로 유의적인 수준은 아니었다. 향후 인삼중의 유효성분 구명이나 관련 물질들의 활성 변화에 대한 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단되지만 고온 등 급격한 주위환경가 변화에 대한 인삼의 생체항상성 유지효과를 일부 증명할 수 있는 결과인 것으로 판단되었다.

The present experiment was carried out to investigate the effects of heat exposure on water metabolism and the passage of indigestible particles in sheep. Water intake, respiratory rate, rectal temperature and pH of ruminal fluid and urine were significantly higher (P<0.05) in the hot environment ($32\;^{\circ}C$) than in the control environment ($20\;^{\circ}C$). Urine osmolality and blood volume were increased, while glomerular filtration rate was decreased, in the hot environment. The liquid flow rate from reticulo-rumen and the excretion of indigestible particles of specific gravity 0.99 (but not 1.27 or 1.38) were increased in the hot environment. From these findings, it is suggested that an increased water intake evoked by heat exposure might affect the flow rate of digesta in sheep.
