To lead lighting inside, design solution and mechenical solution can be used.A inner court and atrium are samples for design solution. However, physical and environmental elements for building design are not taken positively into consideration. So low position of the inner court is difficult to reach lighting performance and a urban landscape gets damaged. On this study, selecting a building with a inner court, best design method is suggested to apply reflecting mirror. building direction, building shape and solar position are considered to deside the setting angle for reflecting mirror. Performance for the setting reflecting mirror is verified through various simulation cases, and is got more lighting performance than the present situation on the building inside.

본 연구는 최근 자원고갈 문제에 따른 에너지 절감을 바탕으로 총 에너지 수요에서 높은 비중을 차지하고 있는 건축물 에너지의 수요 감축에 목적을 두었고 국내에서 에너지절약형 건축물 설계를 위해 고시한 단열기준을 보다 효과적으로 조정하기 위한 보완점을 제시하고 에너지절약형 고단열, 고기밀 건축물의 쾌적성 유지의 한계점을 추가 보완하고자 야간외기 환기시스템을 도입하며 종합하여 최종 저에너지건축물 설계모델을 제시하였다. 먼저, 단열성능의 효과적 조정 모델은 건축물의 각 경사면별로 다르게 조정하여 각각의 수요 민감도를 충분히 고려할 수 있는 방법을 제시하고, 야간외기 도입 모델의 경우 건축물의 에너지 성능을 최대로 할 수 있는 모델을 선정하였다. 두 가지 모델을 결합한 최종 저에너지건축물 모델은 결과적으로 대상 건축물의 남, 북의 경사면 단열을 강화한 모델과 야간외기를 통한 환기 시스템을 단시간 운전한 모델이었으며 국내 단열기준에 의거한 Base 모델과 비교할 때 약 6~7%의 절감효과를 보였다. 따라서, 본 연구에서 제시하는 효과적 단열조정법과 야간외기 도입은 저에너지건축물 모델 설계에 있어 수요 민감도 분석 선행의 필요성을 환기시키는 점에서 시사점이 높고 대상 건축물의 건물에너지 수요를 저감할 수 있는 설계모델로 활용도가 높을 것이다.

Residential buildings account for a significant portion of the total building-energy usage in Korea, and a variety of research studies on the domestic boiler have therefore been carried out; however, most of these studies examined the boiler itself, whereby the part-load ratio characteristics and the corresponding gas-energy consumption patterns were not analyzed. In this study, the part-load ratio and operating characteristics of a domestic gas boiler were analyzed within a residential building equipped with a radiant floor-heating system; in addition, the energy consumption between condensing and conventional boilers was comparatively analyzed. Our results show that significant portions of the total operating hours, heating load, and energy consumption are in the part-load ratio range of 0 through 40%, whereby the energy consumption was significantly affected by the boiler efficiency under low part-load conditions. These results indicate that the part-load operation of a boiler is an important factor in residential buildings; furthermore, replacing a conventional boiler with a condensing boiler can reduce annual gas-energy usage by more than 20%.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to analyze the energy saving and cost benefit analysis of the Low-income Energy Efficiency Treatment Program supported by KOREF(Korea Energy Foundation). This program was launched in 2007 and performs building energy retrofit for the low-income and energy poverty houses. Method: Energy simulation and cost benefit analysis were accomplished for the low-income detached houses. The structure of detached house was a lot og block structure, wood frame (single glass) and concrete roof. Baseline model of the low-income detached houses was proposed. Result: Annual heating energy consumptions were decreased by about 3.2% with the window system replacement(Case 1), 9.3% with reinforcement of insulation(Case2), and 12.5% with both(Case 3) compared to those of baseline model. The construction cost will be recouped within 5 years for the Case 1, 3 years for the Case 2, and 3 years for the Case 3. Case 3 was the most cost beneficient construction method in the analyzed cases in this study.

Energy saving has been main concern, thus government supporting policies which are based on Fundamentals of Low-carbon Green Growth Act', 'Green Building Support Act, have been prepared in Korea. The objective of this study is to estimate energy conservation effectiveness and economic advantage assuming that lighting equipments and heat source equipments would be retrofitted. Office building, which has total floor area of $30,000m^2$, was a subject of this study. From the estimations, electric rate will be decreased by 62,886,000 won per year due to lighting equipments retrofit, and gas rate will be decreased 11,141,000 won or 17,332,000 won per year due to heat source equipments retrofit (in case of COP 1.2 or 1.5). Payback period of each case that are calculated by energy saving cost and retrofit cost are estimated 27.9 year, 38.6 year and 29.2 year, thus economic supporting policies is necessary for effective energy saving in buildings. Meanwhile payback period of heat source equipment for new building is estimated 6.1 year and 8.3 year.

It is important to control the amount of supply water flow rate at all kinds of HVAC systems in order to maintain IAQ and energy efficiency. The most of buildings installed geothermal heat pumps is using fixed water flow rate in spite of the excellent performance of geothermal heat pumps. Especially when the air-conditioning load is low, the flow rate control may be possible to save energy to operate. However, it is effective to apply the variable flow control system in order to reduce energy consumption. Therefore, the purpose of this study, change a water flow rate and improve the whole performance of the geothermal heat pump. Geothermal heat pump system is modeled after the selection of the applied building, by setting the flow rate control to be analyzed through a simulation of performance evaluation. Building energy saving according to the flow rate of the ground circulating water analyze quantitatively and to investigate the importance of the flow control.

An SHGC(Solar Heat Gain Coefficient) is a determinant of total flux of solar radiation coming indoor and a critical factor in evaluating heating and cooling load. U-value represents heat loss while SHGC denominates heat gain. Recently, windows with high solar gain, mid solar gain or low solar gain are being produced with the development of Low-E coating technology. This study evaluated changes in energy consumption for heating and cooling according to changes in SHGC when using double-layered Low-E glass and triple layered Low-E glass in relation to double layered clear glass as base glass. An Office was chosen for the evaluation. For deriving optical properties of each window, WINDOW 5 by LBNL, an U.S. based company. and the results were analyzed to evaluate performance of heat and cooling energy on anannual basis using ESP-r, an energy interpretation program. Compared to the energy consumption of the double layered clear glass, the double layered Low-E glass with high solar gain consumed $69.5kWh/m^2,yr$, 9% more than the double layered clear glass in cooling energy. The one with mid solar gain consumed $63.1kWh/m^2,yr$, 1% less than the base glass while the one with low solar gain consumed $57.6kWh/m^2,yr$, 10% less than the base glass. When it comes to tripled layered glass, the ones with high solar showed 2% of increase respectively while the one with mid solar gain and low solar gain resulted 5% and 11% in decrease in energy consumption due to low acquisition of solar radiation. With respect to cooling energy. it was found that the lower the SHGC. the less energy consumption becomes.

To date the engineering community has seen facade systems as non-structural elements with high aesthetic value and a barrier between the outdoor and indoor environments. The role of facades in energy use in a building has also been recognized and the industry is also witnessing the emergence of many energy efficient facade systems. This paper will focus on using exterior skin of the double skin facade system as a dissipative movable element during earthquake excitation. The main aim of this study is to investigate the potential of the facade system to act as a damper system to reduce earthquake-induced vibration of the primary structure. Unlike traditional mass dampers, which are usually placed at the top level of structures, the movable/smart double skin facade systems are distributed throughout the entire height of building structures. The outer skin is moveable and can act as a multi tuned mass dampers (MTMDs) that move and dissipate energy during strong earthquake motions. In this paper, using a three dimensional 10-storey building structure as the example, it is shown that with optimal choice of materials for stiffness and damping of brackets connecting the two skins, a substantial portion of earthquake induced vibration energy can be dissipated which leads to avoiding expensive ductile seismic designs. It is shown that the engineering demand parameters (EDPs) for a low-rise building structures subjected to moderate to severe earthquakes can be substantially reduced by introduction of a smart designed double skin system.
