To reduce the maintenance expense, and the possibility of electric outage and accident, we should optimize the outdoor insulation system. And for the optimization, accurate measurement for the degree of contamination with climatic conditions, such as wind, rain, and drought, should be carried. However the classical measuring method, brush wiping, has some problems in the aspect of man power, reliability, and expense. In this paper, we propose two type apparatus, which could detect the degree of contamination on insulators in outdoor insulation system, such as transmission and distribution line insulator and bushing. One use the leakage current, and the other use the oscillating frequency to check the degree of contamination. To avoid the oxidation of electrode AC source, and the low degree of contamination was applied. From the result of this investigation we could get the good relationship between the degree of contamination and the leakage current and oscillating frequency

In this paper, we experimented and analyzed about electric fire risk assessment methods of LED lightings for outdoor. LED lighting is composed of AC power lines, AC/DC converter, DC power lines and LED lamps. There are some risk factors of electric fire in LED lighting such as short circuit between power lines or power line and ground, dielectric breakdown, leakage current, abnormal voltage inflow, poor contacts(connections), etc. As a result of this study, insulation coverings of wire was ignited due to dielectric breakdown between power lines and molten marks were formed in copper conductor. LED lighting was blown out while short circuit, beside that, electrical disorder did not occur. When abnormal voltage was inflowed, electronic components such as varistor, condenser were damaged. Partial heating was produced and insulation was melted and carbonized by arc and heating while poor contacts were happened. We expect that the results of this study would be helpful for electrical safety of LED lightings for outdoor.

In this paper, in order to analyze the characteristics of degradation by salt water with insulation cover and OC wire(outdoor cross-linked polyethylene insulated wire) used in power receiving system, an experimental apparatus has been designed and fabricated. An insulation cover and OC wire were installed in an experimental apparatus, and degraded in each case of 2%, 5%, 10% salinity during 12 weeks. An optical microscope was used to observe a changing process of sample surface, and an electrical safety was analyzed by measuring dielectric breakdown voltages of samples. As salinity increased, so ununiformity of sample surface increased. The breakdown wasn't produced to 50kV about samples regardless of salinity, testing period.

The degree of contamination in outdoor insulation system is one of the most importance factor to determine the level of insulation, and the salt is known as the most dangerous contaminants in the most region of the world. In a macroscopic point of view, as shown through the preceding study, the generation and deposition of salt contaminants has a great relation with the geographical conditions and the meteorological conditions, such as, wind velocity, wind direction, precipitation and so forth. However, in the aspect of microscopic analysis, the pollution mechanism has a great relation with aerodynamic properties of insulator, originated from the profile of insulators, and the non-uniform deposition is unevitable. So, in this investigation, we had make a experiment to seize the electrical properties of non-uniformly contaminated insulator. The results of this investigation could be used as a good groundwork in the determination of outdoor insulation design.

This study aims to survey the acoustical environment in the region around airport where there are various transportation noises such as aircraft noise, railway noise and traffic noise, and to analyze the subjective response on the noise to the people who live in house or work in office nearby airport. Measurement and subjective response evaluation were carried out at the same time and outdoor noise level was measured all day long to calculate one day results such as average Leq or one day WECPNL etc. The results showed that the military aircraft produces very high level comparing with commercial aircraft, for instance the sound level of commercial outdoor was lower than that of military aircraft indoor. Double and triple window were more effective for controlling the noise than single window, which showed the possibility of sound insulation treatment by installing windows having higher sound insulation performance. Finally the subjective response was resulted that the most annoying noise is from aircraft and counterplan they hope is 'airport moving out'. Leq 65 dB(A), the criteria value of sound insulation treatment, was corresponding to the subjective response of median annoyance '4' out of 7th scale.

This study investigated the thermal insulation of an air-cell pack embedded jacket and down jackets to understand the potential of air-cell pack as a filler for winter outdoor wear. A thermal manikin measured the thermal insulation of the following jackets: HD (heavy down jacket, total weight (Tw) 750g, goose down weight (Dw) 350g), LD (light down jacket, Tw 560g, Dw 140g), AF (air-cell pack embedded jacket, Tw 490g, trunk goose down in LD was replaced to air cell), F (film jacket, Tw 469g, but removed the air in the air-cell pack from the AF), and Control (control jacket, Tw 438g, removed the air-cell pack film from the F). Thermal insulations of each experimental condition were measured in a static standing posture. Total thermal insulations (IT) were 1.29clo (HD), 1.23clo (LD), 1.16clo (AF), 1.20clo (F), and 1.08clo (Control). Body regional thermal insulation was higher in the chest and back than in the abdomen and hip in all conditions. The results suggest that an economical and versatile outdoor jacket with superior thermal insulation will be feasible if the air volume is properly controlled in air-cell pack embedded jackets in consideration of regional different distribution and used in combination with film and down.

The insulation of a building envelope influences the hygrothermal performance as well as the thermal performance of the building. While most of Korean wood frame houses have an interior insulation system, the exterior insulation system with high thermal performance has recently been applied. While it can be effective in energy savings for better insulation performance, without consideration of the moisture, condensation and mould growth can occur. Therefore, in this study, hygrothermal behaviour, water content, and mould growth were analyzed using hygrothermal simulation of an exterior wall of a wood frame house with which the interior insulation and exterior insulation systems were applied. The wall layer included Wall A (Interior insulation) and Wall B (Exterior insulation). The U-values were identified as 0.173 and $0.157W/m^2K$, respectively. The total water content and OSB absolute water content of Wall A were confirmed to be higher than those of Wall B, but the absolute water content did not exceed the reference value of 20%. The moisture content of the two walls was determined to be stable in the selected areas. However, mould growth risk analysis confirmed that both Wall A and Wall B were at risk of mould growth. It was confirmed that as the indoor setting temperature decreased, the mould index and growth rate in the same area increased. Therefore, the mould growth risk was affected more by indoor and outdoor climate conditions than by the position of the insulation. Consequently, the thermal performance of Wall B was superior to that of Wall A but the hygrothermal performances were confirmed to be similar.
