  • 바이패스 공조시스템은 냉각코일과 가열코일의 공기통과여부에 따라 크게 외기바이패스, 혼합공기 바이패스와 순환공기 바이패스 공조시스템으로 구분할 수 있다. 이 중에서 순환공기 바이패스 공조시스템은 다른 두 방식과 달리 공조되지 않은 외기가 시스템 내부로 직접 유입되지 않으므로 실내온습도 조절면에서 가장 효율적인 시스템이다. 먼저, 수치계산을 통하여 부하변동에 따른 순환공기 바이패스 공조시스템과 단일덕트 정풍량공조시스템의 실내온습도 구현능력을 비교, 평가하였다. 또한 제안 시스템의 성능분석을 위해 실물실험동을 건립하여 그 실험결과를 수치계산결과와 비교하였다. 실험을 통하여 실현열비가 0.7(현열부하만 변동)인 경우, 실내 최대현열부하에 대한 부분부하시의 실내 현열부하의 비(DSL; Design Sensible Load)가 70% 이내에서는 수치계산, simulator 실험 모두 실내상대습도는 ASHRAE STANDARD 62-1999에서 지정하는 60% 이하로 유지됨을 알 수 있었다. 결론적으로, 바이패스 공조시스템은 실내의 온습도를 정해진 범위의 부하변동내에서는 바이패스 댐퍼의 조작만으로 쾌적한 상태로 유지시킬 수 있으며, 환기회수가 많은 장손의 경우, 순환공기 바이패스에 의해 양질의 실내공기질(IAQ; Indoor Air qualify)을 확보할 수 있다.

  • Toxicity tests in our laboratory are conducted usually with mass-reared organisms. They are under the same environmentel conditions throughout seasons and are supplied at specific age. A total of 38 species of aquatic organisms are being reared. We have attempted to establish pruified strains or to select clones of various parthenogenic organisms. The merits or demerits of our culturing test organisms are discussed. The differences in the susceptibility among clones or strains of test organism are also discussed. For a single species test, algae, daphnia, fish are often used. However, we usually use early stages, but occasionally, adults fish are used for reproduction tests. As an another important aspect, the toxicity through food chains has been studied. In this study, we select a pair of species belonging different trophic levels. The differences between single species tests and multispecies tests will be discussed. Even a single species test intends to assess the effects of chemicals on ecosystem levels, however, this idea is not applicable to ecosystems. Single species tests with standard organisms and multispecies tests are contradictory in concept. One type of multispecles tests is indoor microcosms being composed of severel species artificially assembled, and another is composed of natural components (both indoor and outdoor). We have used three types of outdoor mesocosms using ponds and three types of artificial streams. The mesocosms is useful to not only to analyze the floral or faun61 changes but also to study the fate or behaviour of chemicals in naturd environments. Lastly, usefulness of the field observation or experiments or semi-field experiments will be discussed. This will enhance the exploitation of early warning systems utilizing indicator organisms or animal behaviour.aviour.

  • In this work, we experimentally investigated the solar absorption performance of Cu-based scalable nanostructured surfaces and compared their performance with the conventional TiNOX. We fabricated Cu-based nanostructured surfaces with a controlled chemical oxidation process applicable to a large area or complex geometry. We optimized the process parameters including the chemical compounds, dipping time and process temperature. We conducted both lab-scale and outdoor experiments to characterize the conversion efficiency of each absorber surfaces with single and double glazing setup. Lab-scale experiment was conducted with $50mm{\times}50mm$ absorber sample with 1-sun condition (1kW/m2) using a solar simulator (PEC-L01) with measuring the temperature at the absorber plate, cover glass, air gap and ambient. From the lab-scale experiment, we obtained ${\sim}91^{\circ}C$ and $94^{\circ}C$ for CuO and TiNOX surfaces after 1 hr of solar illumination at single glazing, respectively. To measure the absorber performance at actual operating condition, outdoor experiment was also conducted using $110mm{\times}110mm$ absorber sample. We measured the solar flux with thermopile detector (919P-040-50). From outdoor experiment, we observed ${\sim}123^{\circ}C$ and $131^{\circ}C$ for CuO and TiNOX with 0.6 kW/m2 insolation at double glazing, respectively. We showed that the suggested nanostructured CuO solar absorber has near-equivalent collection efficiency compared with the state-of-the-art TiNOX surfaces even with much simpler manufacturing process that does not require an expensive equipment.

  • The objective of this study was to compare pork characteristics and to determine consumer acceptability of pork chops from antibiotic free Yorkshire crossbreds sired by Berkshire (BY), Large Black (LBY), Tamworth (TY) or Yorkshire (YY) boars and reared in hoop houses. The experiments were conducted at the North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University (NCA&TSU) Farm in Greensboro, NC and the Cherry Research Station Center for Environmental Farming Systems (CEFS) Alternative Swine Unit in Goldsboro, NC (source of antibiotic free Yorkshire sows used at both places). Twenty-four sows were artificially inseminated at each location in each of three trials. Litters were weaned at 4 wks old, and reared within deep-bedded outdoor hoop houses. To compare pork characteristics, 104 randomly selected animals were harvested at a USDA-inspected abattoir at approximately 200 d of age. Variables measured included pH, color score, $L^*$, $a^*$, $b^*$, marbling score, drip loss, hot carcass weight, backfat thickness (BF), loin muscle area (LMA), and slice shear force. Sensory panel tests were also conducted at two time periods. The data was analyzed with GLM in SAS 9.01 including location, trial, and sire breed as fixed effects. Backfat thickness, LMA, color score and $a^*$ were different among breeding groups (p<0.05). The LBY pigs had thicker backfat and smaller LMA than the other breed types. The TY and YY had less backfat than all other breed groups. Color score was lower for YY than BY and LBY but intermediate for TY. The $a^*$ was lower for TY than other breeds except LBY which was intermediate. For one sensory panel test, YY pork was more preferred overall as well as for juiciness and texture compared to BY and LBY (p<0.05), but no impact of breed type was noted for the other test, with values similar for BY, LBY, TY and YY pork. This information may help small farmers make decisions about breed types to use for outdoor production.

  • 본 연구는 외부환경에서 자율주행 로봇을 위해 중요한 물체를 찾기 위한 방법을 설명한다. 외부환경의 물체를 찾기 위해서 먼저 로봇은 외부환경에서 주행할 때 획득한 영상으로부터 물체를 검출하고 분할한다. 로봇은 물체의 후보를 자연물의 하늘과 나무로, 인공물의 빌딩으로 나눈다. 후보 물체를 분할하기 위해서 다중 특징을 이용한다. 다중 특징은 색상, 선분, 상황정보, 동시발생 행렬, 소실점 및 주요한 요소성분을 이용한다. 후보 특징은 물체의 특성에 맞게 혼합하여 물체를 분할한다. 이런 다중 특징은 물체에 대한 공간정보, 인간의 선험적인 지식을 이용한 물체의 기하학 정보, 공간적인 주파수 등으로 다양한 특징 추출 방법을 이용하여 물체의 영역분할의 결과를 얻는다. 물체의 분석은 분할된 영역을 이용하여 벽 영역, 창문, 정문과 같은 빌딩면의 기하학적인 속성을 찾는다. 빌딩은 소실점의 수직선분과 수평선분을 교차함으로써 그물을 얻는다. 빌딩의 벽 영역은 유사한 색상을 가지는 이웃해 있는 평행사변형의 그물을 합병해서 검출한다. 창문은 층의 수와 동일한 층에 있는 방의 수를 추정하여 빌딩의 높이와 크기를 추정한다. 실험에서 다중 특징을 이용하여 물체의 영역을 분할하고 빌딩의 기하학적인 속성을 이용하여 물체를 분석한다.

  • BIPV system not only produces electricity at building, but also acts as a material for building envelope. Thus, it can increase the economical efficiency of PV system by saving the cost for building materials. Bifacial solar cell can convert solar energy to electrical energy from both sides of the cell. In addition, it is designed as 3 busbar layout which is the same with ordinary mono-facial solar cells. Therefore, many of the module manufacturers can easily use the bifacial solar cells without changing their manufacturing equipments. Moreover, bifacial PV system has much potential in building application by utilizing glass-to-glass structure of PV module. However, the electrical generation of the bifacial PV module depends on the characteristics of the building surface which faces the module, as well as outdoor environment. Therefore, in order to apply the bifacial PV module to building envelope as BIPV system, its power generation characteristics are carefully evaluated. For this purpose this study focused on the electrical performance of the bifacial BIPV system through the comparative outdoor experiments. As a result, the power generation performance of the bifacial BIPV system was improved by up to 21% compared to that of the monofacial BIPV system. Therefore, it is claimed that the bifacial BIPV system can replace the conventional BIPV system to improve the PV power generation in buildings.

  • A sensor working in outdoor may generate some faulty signal owing to dust and high temperature. This paper describes an intelligent sensor system and controller which has a reconstruction mechanism for faulty signal. The faulty signals are dievided into two types as linear distortion and non linear distortion, respectively. The linear distorted signal is due to dust, and non linear distorted signal is due to physical breakdown of sensor or high temperature. These distorted signal have been reconstructed by the proposed method based on polynomial regression method and principal component analysis approach.. The proposed method has been applied to sun tracking system working in outdoor. For a robust and precision control of sun tracker, a fuzzy controller was also proposed. The fuzzy controller controls the tracker by using the collected sensor signal. The tolerance of the position control is within 1.5 degree. To show the validity of the developed system, some experiments in the field were illustrated.

  • This paper proposes a new technique that produces improved local information using a low-cost GPS/INS system combined with Extended Kalman Filter and Path Planning when a Quad-rotor flies. In the research, a low-cost GPS is combined with INS by Extended Kalman Filter to improve local information. However, this system has disadvantages in that estimation accuracy is getting worsens when the Quad-rotor flies through the air in a curve and precision of location information is influenced by performance of the used GPS. An algorithm based on Path Planning is adopted to deal with these weaknesses. When the Quad-rotor flies outdoors, a short moving path can be predicted because all short moving paths of quad-rotor can be assumed to be straight. Path planning is used to make the short moving path and determine the closest local information of data of the GPS/INS system to location determined by path planning. Through the foregoing process, improved local data is obtained when the quad-rotor flies, and the performance of the proposed system is verified from various outdoor experiments.
