A review on the papers published in the Korean Journal of Air-Conditioning and Refrigerating Engineering in 1998 and 1999 has been done. Focus has been put on current status of research in the aspect of heating, cooling, ventilation, sanitation and building environment. The conclusions are as follows. 1) A review of the recent studies on fluid flow, turbomachinery and pipe-network shows that many experimental investigations are conducted in applications of impingement jets. Researches on turbulent flows, pipe flows, pipe-networks are focused on analyses of practical systems and prediction of system performance. The results of noise reduction in the turbomachinery are also reported. 2) A review of the recent studies on heat transfer analysis and heat exchanger shows that there were many papers on the channel flow with the application to the design of heat exchanger in the heat transfer analysis. Various experimental and numerical papers on heat exchanger were also published, however, there were few papers available for the analysis of whole system including heat exchanger. 3) A review of the recent studies on heat pump system have focused on the multi-type system and the heat pump cycle to utilize treated sewage as the heat source. The defrosting and the frosting behaviors in the fin-tube heat exchanger is experimentally examined by several authors. Several papers on the ice storage cooling system are presented to show the dynamic simulation program and optimal operation conditions. The study on the micro heat pipes for the cooling of high power electronic components is carried out to examine the characteristics of heat and mass transfer processed. In addition to these, new type of separate thermosyphon is studied experimentally. 4) The recent studies on refrigeration/air conditioning system have focused on the system performance and efficiency for new alternative refrigerants. New systems operating with natural refrigerants are drawing lots of attention. In addition to these, evaporation and condensation heat transfer characteristics of traditional and new refrigerants are investigated for plain tubes and also for microfin tubes. Capillary tubes and orifice are main topics of research as expansion devices and studies on thermophysical properties of new refrigerants and refrigerant/oil mixtures are widely carried out. 5) A review of the recent studies on absorption cooling system shows that numerous experimental and analytical studies on the improvement of absorber performance have been presented. Dynamic analysis of compressor have been performed to understand its vibration characteristics. However research works on tow-phase flow and heat transfer, which could be encountered in the refrigeration system and various phase-change heat exchanger, were seemed to be insufficient. 6) A review of recent studies on duct system shows that the methods for circuit analysis, and flow balancing have been presented. Researches on ventilation are focused on the measurement of ventilation efficiency, and variation of ventilation efficiency with ventilation methods by numerous experimental and numerical studies. Furthermore, many studies have been conducted in real building in order to estimate indoor thermal environments. Many research works to get some information for cooling tower design have been performed but are insufficient. 7) A review on the recent studies on architectural thermal environment and building mechanical systems design shows that thermal comfort analysis is sitting environment, thermal performance analysis of Korean traditional building structures., and evaluation of building environmental load have been performed. However research works to improve the performance of mechanical system design and construction technology were seemed to be insufficient.

국내외로 첨단 ICT 융합기술이 농업 분야에 적용되기 시작하면서, 시설원예 설비들이 고도화되고, 스마트팜 구축 기술 및 인력이 축적되기 시작하였다. 그러나 우리나라 농촌의 경우, 농업생산 연령의 고령화, 국내 농촌 인구의 지속적인 유출, 저출산 등으로 인하여 스마트팜 확대 및 적용에 어려움이 많은 실정이다. 따라서 공간 및 시간에 구속을 받지 않는 간편한 농업인 교육 프로그램이 필요하며, 최근 부상하고 있는 시뮬레이션 기술을 활용한다면 농업 교육용 시뮬레이션 툴 개발도 가능할 것으로 판단된다. 온실 환경 제어 모델을 이용한 시뮬레이션은 다양한 지역과 기상 조건 하에서 대상 온실의 열과 물질에너지의 상호작용을 합리적으로 예측할 수 있게 해준다. 본 연구에서는 온실 환경 제어 모델을 활용하여 외부 기상 데이터를 통해 온실의 환경 변화를 예측하고 가상의 환경 제어시스템을 통해 환경 제어 시 필요한 에너지값들을 시뮬레이션 할 수 있었다. 이러한 결과를 통해 이용자가 직접 맞춤형 환경 제어를 할 수 있도록 편의성을 고려한 사용자 인터페이스를 구축할 것이며, 실제 파프리카 재배 온실의 제어 요소들을 반영할 수 있도록 설계될 것이다. 농업용 교육 시뮬레이션 툴을 최근 활발하게 연구가 이루어지고 있는 작물 생육 모델링 기술 및 전산유체역학 기술과 융합하면 더욱타당한 결과를 보일 것이다.
