The aim of this study was to develop a device for solving the heating problem of living space using heated air, utilizing a simple air heater type collector for solar energy. At the present time, this study assessed the possibility of a development system through theoretical calculations for the amount of available energy according to the size change of the air-heated solar energy collector. To produce and supply hot water using the heat energy of the sun, hot water at $100^{\circ}C$ or less was produced using a flat or vacuum tube type collector. The purpose of this study was to research the air heating type solar collector that utilizes heating energy with heating air above $75^{\circ}C$, by designing and manufacturing an air piping type solar collector that is a simpler type than a conventional solar collector system. The analysis results were obtained for the generated air temperature ($^{\circ}C$) and the production of air (kg/h) to determine the performance of air heating by an air-heated solar collector according to the heat transfer characteristics in the collector of the model when a specified amount of heat flux was dropped into a solar collector of a certain size using PHOENICS, which is a heat flow analysis program applying the Finite Volume Method. From the analysis result, the temperature of the air obtained was approximately $40.5^{\circ}C$, which could be heated using an air heating tube with an inner diameter of 0.1m made of aluminum in a collector with a size of $1.2m{\times}1.1m{\times}0.19m$. The production of air was approximately 161 m3/h. This device can be applied to maintain a suitable environment for human activity using the heat energy of the sun.

A planar Bi-Sb multijunction thermal converter with high thermal sensitivity and small ac-dc transfer error has been fabricated by preparing the bifilar thin film Pt-heater and the hot junctions of thin film Bi-Sb thermopile on the $Si_{3}N_{4}/SiO_{2}/Si_{3}N_{4}$-diaphragm, which functions as a thermal isolation layer, and the cold junctions on the dielectric membrane supported with the Si-substrate, which acts as a heat sink, and its ac-dc transfer characteristics were investigated with the fast reversed dc method. The respective thermal sensitivities of the converter with single bifilar heater were about 10.1 mV/mW and 14.8 mV/mW in the air and vacuum, and those of the converter with dual bifilar heater were about 5.1 mV/mW and 7.6 mV/mW, and about 5.3 mV/mW and 7.8 mV/mW in the air and vacuum for the inputs of inside and outside heaters, indicating that the thermal sensitivities in the vacuum, where there is rarely thermal loss caused by gas, are higher than those in the air. The ac-dc voltage and current transfer difference ranges of the converter with single bifilar heater were about ${\pm}1.80\;ppm$ and ${\pm}0.58\;ppm$, and those of the converter with dual bifilar heater were about ${\pm}0.63\;ppm$ and ${\pm}0.25\;ppm$, and about ${\pm}0.53\;ppm$ and ${\pm}0.27\;ppm$, respectively, for the inputs of inside and outside heaters, in the frequency range below 10 kHz and in the air.

간접열식 LPG온풍난방기는 LP(Liquefied Petroleum)가스를 열원으로 한 온풍난방기를 말한다. LP가스는 프로판(Propane, $C_3$H$_{8}$)과 부탄(Butane, $C_4$H$_{10}$)을 주성분으로 하는 혼합물로 에탄, 프로필렌, 부틸렌 등이 약간 포함되어 있는 기체로 액화 및 기화가 쉬우며 기체상태에서는 비중이 공기보다 무겁고 액체상태에서는 물보다 가볍다. 또한, 기화할 때는 다량의 열과 연소시 많은 공기를 필요로 하고 온도에 따라 액체의 부피가 변하는 특성을 가지고 있으며 무색, 무취, 무독하다. LP가스의 발열량은 12,000kcal/kg으로 경유나 보일러등유 보다 약 30% 정도 높아 난방연료로서의 사용 및 취급성이 우수하다. (중략)

We present in this Paper a microwave Power sensor fabricated by a standard CMOS process and a bulk micromachining process. The sensor consists of a CPW transmission line, a resistor as a healer, and thermocouple arrays. An input microwave heater, the resistor so that the temperature rises proportionally to the microwave power and tile thermocouple arrays convert it to an electrical signal. The sensor uses air bridged 8round of CPW realized by wire bonding to reduce tile device size and cost and to improve the thermal impedance. Al/poly-Si junctions are used for the thermocouples. Poly-Si is used for tile resister and Aluminium is for transmission line. The resistor and hot junctions of the thermocouples are placed on a low stress silicon nitride diaphragm to minimize a thermal loss. The fabricated device operates properly from 1㎼ to 100㎽\ulcorner of input power. The sensitivity was measured to be ,3.2～4.7 V/W.

온풍난방기 20대를 대상으로 온풍난방기의 베기가스중 탄산가스농도, 온풍온도차, 배기가스온도 및 열효율을 조사하여 사용연수별로 분석하였으며 주요 결과는 다음과 같다. 가. 사용연수별 온풍난방기 배기가스중 탄산가스농도와 온풍온도차는 사용연수에 따른 조사표본의 부족으로 큰 차이가 있었다고 하기는 어렵고 정확한 조사를 위해서는 보다 많은 대수가 필요할 것으로 판단된다. 나. 사용연수별 배기가스온도는 사용연한이 오래될수록 높아졌다고 판단된다. 이는 열교환기에서 흡입공기와 연소열이 열교환이 충분히 이루어지지 않았거나, 버너노즐의 노후화, 버너송풍기, 온풍난방기 송풍기의 노후화에 따른 결과라 여겨진다. 사용연수에 따른 배기가스온도는 회귀방정식 Y= 79.032Ln(X) + 116.66 ($R^2$= 0.6784)로 나타낼 수 있었다. 다. 사용연수별 온풍난방기의 열효율은 사용연한이 오래될수록 감소하는 경향을 보였으며 회귀방정식 Y = 95.167 X $^{-0.054}$ ($R^2$= 0.5696)로 나타낼 수 있었다.

A planar Bi-Sb multijunction thermal converter, which is consisted of a linear or bifilar thin film NiCr-heater and a thin film Bi-Sb thermopile, has been fabricated, and its ac-dc transfer characteristics were examined in a frequency range from 10 Hz to 10 KHz. In order to increase the thermal sensitivity and to decrease the ac-dc transfer error of a thermal converter, the heater and the hot junctions of a thermopile were prepared on a Si$_3$N$_4$/SiO$_2$/Si$_3$N$_4$-diaphragm which acts as a thermal isolation layer, and the cold junctions on the Si$_3$N$_4$/SiO$_2$/Si$_3$N$_4$-thin film supported with the silicon rim which functions as a heat sink. The respective thermal sensitivities in air and in a vacuum of the converter with a built-in bifilar heater were about 14.0 ㎷/㎽ and 54.0 ㎷/㎽, and the ac-dc voltage and the current transfer difference ranges in air were about $\pm$0.60 ppm and $\pm$0.11 ppm, respectively, indicating that the ac-dc transfer accuracy of the converter are much higher than that of a commercial 3-dimensional multijunction thermal converter. However, the output thermoelectric voltage fluctuation of the converter was rather high.
