A ventilation model was developed for predicting the air change per hour(ACH) in buildings and the airflow rates between zones of a multi-room building. In this model, the important parameters used in the calculation of airflow are wind velocity, wind direction, terrain effect, shielding effect by surrounding buildings, the effect of the window type and insect screening, etc. Also, the resulting set of mass balance equations required for the process of calculation of airflow rates are solved using a Conte-De Boor method. When this model was applied to the building which had been tested by Chandra et al.(1983), the comparison of predicted results by this study with measured results by Chandra et al. indicated that their variations were within -10%~+12%. Also, this model was applied to a building with five zones. As a result, when the wind velocity and direction did not change, terrain characteristics influenced the largest and window types influenced the least on building ventilation among terrain characteristics, local shieldings, and window types. Except for easterly and westerly winds, the ACH increased depending on wind velocity. The wind direction had influence on the airflow rates and directions through openings in building. Thus, this model can be available for predicting the airflow rates within buildings, and the results of this study can be useful for the quantification of airflow that is essential to the research of indoor air quality(temperature, humidity, or contaminant concentration) as well as to the design of building with high energy efficiency.

Indoor air quality is affected by source strength of pollutants, ventilation rate, decay rate, outdoor level and so on. Although technologies exist to measure these factors directly, direct measurements of all factors are impractical in most field studies. The purpose of this study was to develop an alternative methods to estimate these factors by multiple measurements. Daily indoor and outdoor NO$_2$concentrations for 21 days in 20 houses in summer and winter, Seoul. Using a mass balance model and linear regression analysis, penetration factor (ventilation divided by sum of air exchange rate and deposition constant) and source strength factor(emission rate divided by sum of air exchange rate and deposition constant) were calculated. Subsequently, the ventilation and source strength were estimated. During sampling period, geometric mean of natural ventilation was estimated to be 1.10$\pm$1.53 ACH, assuming a residential NO$_2$decay rate of 0.8 hr$^{-1}$ in summer. In winter, natural ventilation was 0.75$\pm$1.31 ACH. And mean source strengths in summer and winter were 14.8ppb/hr and 22.4ppb/hr, respectively. Although the method showed similar finding previous studies, the study did not measure ACH or the source strength of the house directly. As validation of natural ventilations, infiltrations were measured with $CO_2$tracer gas in 18 houses. Relationship between ventilation and infiltration was statistically correlated (Pearson r=0.63, p=0.02).

불포화 수리전도도는 Mualem 모세관 모델에 의하여 이론적으로 함수특성곡선으로부터 적분된다. 하지만 예측된 수리전도도는 포화 부근에서 모관흡수력의 미소한 변화에도 극도로 민감하다. 원활한 형태의 함수특성곡선에 의한 Mualem 수리전도도는 포화 부근에서 급격하게 감소하며, 수리적 거동을 신뢰할 수 있게 모델하지 못하거나 수치해의 안정성을 저해 한다. van Genuchten-Mualem(VGM) 수리전도도를 개선하기 위하여, 낮은 모관흡수력 수준에 있는 임의의 공기함입치이내에서 van Genuchten 함수특성곡선을 수정하였다. 수정 VG 곡선은 대수축에서 임의의 공기함입치에서 포화상태까지 선형화된다. 수정 VG 함수특성곡선은 실제 함수특성거동의 회귀분석에 영향을 끼치지 않으며 원래의 VG 함수특성곡선의 계수를 그대로 사용한다. 수정 VG 곡선을 이용하여, VGM 수리전도도는 임의의 공기합입치를 기준으로 구간별 적분하여 수정되었다. 수정 VGM 수리전도도가 해석적 해로 제안되었으며, 포화부근 영역에서 수리전도도가 급격하게 감소하는 현상이 제거되었다. 실제 사면의 2차원 침투해석을 통하여 VGM 수리전도도와 제안된 모델에 따른 수리거동을 비교하였다. 제안된 모델은 여러 강우조건에 따른 해의 수렴성을 확보하였지만, VGM 수리전도도를 적용하면, 포화부근의 수리전도도가 급격하게 감소하여 강우량이 많은 경우 해가 수렴하지 않았다. 특히 선행강우에 의한 초기 안전율과 집중강우 후 최종 안전율을 크게 평가할 수 있었다. 제안된 수리전도도 모델은 침투해석과 안정해석을 통하여 실제 사면의 붕괴를 재현할 수 있었다.

The objective of this study is to propose basic design guidelines for more effective air ventilation system in apartments. It is well known that ventilation depends on whether the room doors are open or closed as well as people's living patterns. This study considers 84 ㎡-sized apartment which has extended living room without balcony. Ventilation of bathroom and kitchen is not considered. The height of the building, external air pressure and air infiltration through the windows are also neglected. The regulation on indoor air quality made it mandatory that the air change per hour be more than 0.7. Four models are suggested to study the effect of open and closed doors. Models 1 and 3 are open door types and models 2 and 4 are closed door types. The open types have 50 mm hole near the top of the door to substitute exhaust outlet. The ventilation effectiveness was evaluated by 3-dimensional numerical simulation using finite volume method by a commercial software. This work compares air flow, temperature of air, age of air and the efficiency of ventilation of apartments with wooden doors of bedroom 1 and 2, which are open or closed.

From Feb. 2006, the ventilating systems with air exchange rate of over 0.7times/hour are installed at the apartment houses (over 100 units). Installation cost and maintenance cost are very important factors for ventilating system because consumers have to pay the expenses of that system. Especially small apartment needs more considerations because small apartment is comparatively the economically weak part. The purpose of this study is to the performance evaluation of the hybrid ventilation system for small apartment houses. Hybrid system 1 consists of natural ventilation system and duct type exhaust diffusers. Hybrid system 2 has natural ventilation system and toilet exhaust system with static pressure fan. Infiltration of test apartment houses with ventilation system is under 0.1 times/hour. Mean air age of hybrid system 1 is 1.52 hours and hybrid system 2 is 1.42 hours. Mean ventilation effectiveness of hybrid system 2(93%) is higher than that of hybrid system 1(81%).

본 연구에서는 $1,040^{\circ}C$에서 예비소결한 Y-TZP 시편을 크롬 염화물 0.03~0.08 wt%, 테르븀 염화물 0.03~0.07wt%를 함유한 금속염화물 수용액에 3분간 침지하고서 $1,450^{\circ}C$에서 2시간 동안 소결하였으며, 이를 금속염화물 침투가 Y-TZP 소결체의 색상, 소결밀도, 굴곡강도 및 미세조직의 변화에 미치는 영향을 조사한 결과, 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 지르코니아 예비소결체에 대한 크롬과 테르븀 염화물 침투로 A1, A2 및 A3에 근사한 색조의 재현이 가능하였다. 크롬과 테르븀 염화물을 첨가했을 때 지르코니아의 결정립 크기가 증가하였다. Y-TZP 소결체의 2축 굴곡강도는 크롬과 테르븀 염화물 침투에 의해서 유의한 변화를 보이지 않았다(p>0.05). X-선 회절 분석결과, 크롬과 테르븀 염화물의 첨가 여부와 함량에 따른 지르코니아 결정상의 차이점은 관찰되지 않았다. 이상의 결과로 크롬과 테르븀 염화물을 사용하여 지르코니아의 색상을 조절할 수 있음을 확인하였고, 착색된 지르코니아의 색상은 Vita shade guide의 색상과 다소 차이가 있었지만 임상에서 이중구조 세라믹 보철물 재작 시 사용 가능할 것으로 생각된다.

PURPOSES : Infiltration of moisture, polluted material, and deicer into concrete, accompanied by freeze and thaw can cause significant deterioration of concrete pavement. In order to protect concrete from deterioration, it is necessary to prevent the infiltration of these concrete external materials. The moisture-repellent agent, which is a surface treatment and maintenance material added to concrete structures to render them water resistant, has advantages such as prevention of water infiltration and security against air permeation. Nano-coat, which is referred to as silicon hydride, is typically used as a moisture-repellent agent. Therefore, in this study, an attempt is made to use penetration-type Nano-coat as an alternative in order to evaluate its applicability through environmental resistance tests. METHODS : This study aimed to evaluate the applicability of penetration-type Nano-coat, which can provide water repellency to concrete, in concrete pavements, through various environmental resistance tests such as freezing and thawing resistance, chloride ion penetration resistance, and surface scaling resistance tests. The applicability of penetration-type Nano-coat was demonstrated based on the specification of KS F 2711, KS F 2456, and ASTM C 672. RESULTS :In the case of penetration-type Nano-coat applied on sound concrete, an increase in concrete durability was demonstrated by the negligible chloride ion penetrability and the absence of scaling, as revealed by visual observation of the surface, after 50 cycles of scaling resistance test. In addition, test result of the application of penetration-type Nano-coat on deteriorated concrete established that concrete surface pretreated by grinding provided improved durability than non-treated concrete. CONCLUSIONS :This study indicates that penetration-type Nano-coat is applicable as an effective alternative, to increase the durability of concrete structures. In addition, it was known that pretreatment of deteriorated concrete surface, such as grinding, is required to improve the long-term performance of concrete pavement.

Objectives: Outdoor tobacco smoke can penetrate into the indoor environment through cracks in the building envelope. This study aimed to characterize the particle size distribution of infiltrated secondhand smoke (SHS) through the gap in a single glazed and a secondary glazed window according to pressure differences in a chamber. Methods: Two polyvinyl chloride sliding windows were evaluated for infiltration, one with a glazed window and the other with a secondary glazed window. Each window was mounted and sealed in a polycarbonate chamber. The air in the chamber was discharged to the outside to establish pressure differences in the chamber (${\Delta}P$). Outdoor smoking sources were simulated at a one-meter distance from the window side of the chamber. The particle size distribution of the infiltrated SHS was measured in the chamber using a portable aerosol spectrometer. The particle size distribution of SHS inside the chamber was normalized by the outdoor peak for fine particles. Results: The particle size distribution of SHS inside the chamber was similar regardless of window type and ${\Delta}P$. It peaked at $0.2-0.3{\mu}m$. Increases in particulate matter (PM) concentrations from SHS infiltration were higher with the glazed window than with the secondary glazed window. PM concentrations of less than $1{\mu}m$ increased as ${\Delta}P$ was increased inside the chamber. Conclusions: The majority of infiltrated SHS particles through window gap was $0.2-0.3{\mu}m$ in size. Outdoor SHS particles infiltrated more with a glazed window than with a secondary glazed window. Particle sizes of less than $1{\mu}m$ were associated with ${\Delta}P$. These findings can be a reference for further research on the measurement of infiltrated SHS in buildings.
