This study focused on the application of the Passive Solar Chamber System (PSCS) as proposed by a previous study. The seasonal performance and sizing method for the system were investigated for a feasibility of the PSCS in Korean climate. For seasonal performance, heat and ventilation performances of the PSCS were analyzed for the months of January and August. This study proposed a simple configuration method in which the designer can decide on the system size at the preliminary design stage by using system efficiency, overall heat transfer coefficient transmission, monthly solar radiation, highest and lowest temperatures. During weeks that require heating, the system showed to acquire a daily average heat amount of $860.28Wh/m^2$ day. For cooling periods, the system was computed to supply a daily average natural ventilation of $1,360.2m^3/day$ to the room. Moreover, proposed sizing method and the overall computation results showed a 6.04~7.24% error of assessment.

PSHC(Prismatic Solar Hybrid Collector) is a passive solar system composed of prismatic acrly glazing, glazing and ventilating fan. This PSHC system is applied to effectively reduce heating ventilation load as well as lighting load. But so far no method appraising thermal performance of this PSHC system has been developed yet. To assess thermal performance of the PSHC system, a prototype PSHC experimental facility and TRNSYS subroutine type-205 model have been developed in Korea Institute of Energy Research (KIER). The results indicated that l)TRNSYS empirical model of PSHC has been properly modeled with actual performance data, 2)a more reliable source of weather data such as NASA and KIER weather station have been also obtained, and therefore, 3)the annual energy performance of PSHC could be assessed based on this proposed TRNSYS model.

The impinging air jet system is still being used in the various fields with its inherent merits, that is, the easiness in engineering application and high heat transfer coefficients at stagnation point. The purpose of this study is augmentation of heat transfer without additional power in the rectangular air jet which impinges vertically to the heating surface. As a method of passive heat transfer augmentation in a two-Dimensional impinging jet, the transverse-repeated surface roughness of square cross-section is used. This paper deals with the experimental study on the characteristics of heat transfer at the x-direction in between nozzle exit and heating surface of flat plate, and that of ribbed plate. And this study also investigates the effect of square rib widths. The integral average heat transfer coefficient of ribbed plate is about 2.2 times larger than that of flat plate.

높은 재현성과 함께 효율적인 수동 정렬을 위하여 제안된 대형코어 단일모드 폴리머 광도파로를 이용하여 제작 가능한 폴리머 광도파로 소자인 가변 광감쇠기를 제안하고 삼차원 빔전파 방법을 이용하여 소자의 동작 특성을 파악하고 최적 구조를 설계하였다. 소자의 표면에 집적된 박막 전극 히터에서 발생하는 열로 인해 폴리머 광도파로에서 발생하는 굴절률 분포 변화를 수치해석적으로 구하였으며 이 결과를 이용하여 삼차원 빔전파 해석을 수행하였다. 대형코어 광도파로가 가지는 작은 굴절률 대비로 인해 효과적인 광감쇠 현상을 작은 온도 변화로부터 얻을 수 있음을 확인하였다. 일반 광도파로 VOA에서 섭씨 150도 이상의 온도 변화가 필요한 반면 대형 코아 광도파로 VOA는 섭씨 70도 정도의 온도 변화 만으로도 20 dB 이상의 감쇠를 얻을 수 있었다. 대형코아 광도파로가 가지는 장점인 높은 정렬오차 허용범위와 더불어 낮은 구동전압으로 동작하는 장점을 함께 가지는 가변 광감쇠기 설계를 완성하였다.

In the capital of Mongolia where the air quality is getting worse due to the coal consumption used for electricity generation and district heating, the application of geothermal systems in the housing sector is recently designed for high class resort. In this study, the case of applying a geothermal system in a house in Mongolia is examined. The effects of passive house design on the needed heat pump capacity, as well as the annual energy consumption are analyzed. Moreover, as the initial costs, except labor fee, are assumed similar to Korea, cost analysis for several cases is examined, too. From the results, if a house is designed according to passive house standard instead of ASHRAE standard, the heat pump capacity can be expected to be reduced from 16 to 5~6 RT. Furthermore, although the initial cost of architectural cost might increased by 29 M\, the total initial cost is reduced by 14 M\, while the annual energy consumption is reduced by 14%. This is mainly driven by the fact that the geothermal system which serves as the main system to cover the building needs, with a high initial cost for fulfilling the peak requirements.

Museum buildings display artefacts for public education and enjoyment, ensuring their long-term safety and the comfort of visitors by following strict indoor environment control protocols using mechanical Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems to keep the (environmental) variables at a fixed comfort level. Maintaining this requires constant supply of energy currently mostly sourced from the combustion of fossil fuels which exacerbates climate change. However, a review on the effects of the indoor environmental variables on museum artefacts as well as museum visitors revealed that there is no specific point at which artefact deterioration occurs, and that there are wide ranges of conditions that guarantee the long-term safety of artefacts and human comfort. Visits to museum buildings in hot-humid tropical climate of Nigeria revealed that strict indoor environmental practices were adopted. Even when appropriate micro-climatic conditions are provided for artefacts, mechanical HVAC systems remain necessary for visitor comfort because almost no consideration is given to natural ventilation. With the current global push towards energy management, this paper reviewed passive environmental control practices, architectural design strategies, and discusses the adaptation of double skin façade with jali screens, and the notion of smart materials, which can satisfy the range of requirements for the long-term safety of artefacts and levels of human comfort in buildings in hot-humid tropical climate, without mechanical HVAC systems. This review would inspire more discussions on passive, energy efficient, smart and climate responsible popular architecture, challenging current thinking on the impact of the more accepted representative architecture.

KNU 식물공장 모델의 냉난방 에너지 부하를 DesignBuilder를 이용하여 해석하였다. 실내설정온도, LED 보광주기, LED 보광량, 유리외피의 구조에 따른 에너지 소모량을 분석하였다. LED 보광이 없는 식물공장의 실내설정온도를 상추의 적정 생육온도인 $20^{\circ}C$를 중심으로 $15^{\circ}C$, $25^{\circ}C$로 변화시키면서 일정온도로 유지하는데 필요한 연간 냉난방부하를 분석하였다. $15^{\circ}C$일 때 냉방부하, $25^{\circ}C$일 때 난방부하가 가장 크게 나타났다. 상추 재배에 필요한 LED 보광 적용 시 난방부하는 감소하지만 냉방부하가 약 6배 증가한다. 또한 LED 보광 시 주간보다는 야간보광이 냉난방부하 감소에 유리한 결과를 주었다. 식물공장 외피가 냉난방부하에 미치는 영향을 비교하기 위하여 다섯 가지 종류의 외피를 적용하여 계산하였다. 이중창호의 열관류율이 작을수록 식물공장의 난방부하는 감소하고 냉방부하는 증가하였다. 재배할 작물의 적정생장온도 설정, LED 및 재배설비의 내부발열량에 따른 적절한 외피선택, 다양한 패시브 및 액티브 에너지 절감기술의 적용으로 냉방부하를 감소시키는 것이 식물공장 운영에 중요한 요소로 판단된다.

이 연구에서는 Passive sampler를 이용하여 연구대상으로 선정된 2곳의 유물 전시관 내부의 폼알데하이드 농도를 2012년 5월부터 2013년 4월까지 1년간 공간별로 모니터링 하였다. 이 결과, 유물 전시관 내부의 폼알데하이드 농도는 외기에 비해 5배~36배 이상 높은 수치를 나타냈다. 각 전시실과 진열장 내부는 오염원, 공기조화설비, 환경관리에 따라 농도 수준을 달리하였다. 유물 전시관 내 폼알데하이드 농도 수준을 주시험법에 준하여 보정한 결과, 대부분이 환경부의 실내공기질 관리법에서 고시하는 전시실 유지기준($100{\mu}g/m^3$) 뿐만 아니라 일본 국립동경박물관에서 권고하는 문화재 보존환경 기준(약 $50{\mu}g/m^3$)을 모두 초과하였다. 전시실과 진열장 내 폼알데하이드의 농도는 모두 여름>가을>봄>겨울 순으로 높았으며 온 습도가 높은 여름철에 농도 방출량이 증가하였다. 온 습도환경 변화에 따른 폼알데하이드의 농도는 모두 양의 상관관계를 나타냈다. 온도의 경우 $R^2$값이 0.8~0.9의 범위로 폼알데하이드 농도가 습도에 비해 온도에 대한 의존 경향이 큰 것을 알 수 있다. 유물 전시관 내 폼알데하이드 방출 특성 분석은 실내공기질을 개선하는데 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

In this paper, a constant frequency phase shifting PWM-controlled voltage source full bridge-type series load resonant high-frequency inverter using the $4^{th}$ generation IGBT power modules is presented for innovative consumer electromagnetic induction heating applications, such as a hot water producer, steamer and super heated steamer. The bridge arm side link passive capacitive snubbers in parallel with each power semiconductor device and AC load side linked active edge inductive snubber-assisted series load resonant tank soft switching inverter with a constant frequency phase shifted PWM control scheme is evaluated and discussed on the basis of the simulation and experimental results. It is proved from a practical point of view that the series load resonant and edge resonant hybrid high-frequency inverter topology, what is called, DE class type, including the variable-power variable-frequency regulation function can expand zero voltage soft switching commutation area even under low output power setting ranges, which is more suitable and acceptable for newly developed induction heated dual pack fluid heaters. Furthermore, even the lower output power regulation mode of this high-frequency load resonant tank inverter circuit is verified so that this inverter can achieve ZVS with the aid of the single auxiliary inductor snubber.

In this study, the solar chimney, one of the passive solar systems, is proposed as a method to improve the thermal environment of northern zones in buildings. As this well-known system has rarely been used in building projects, an adequate application of the system is proposed in this paper: the solar chimney system is designed to meet the required ventilation rate and consequently to reduce the ventilation load in the northern part of a building. To investigate such a possibility, a numerical model for the system is developed, and results of numerical tests are used for energy simulations. The results were taken into account for test simulations in EnergyPlus. As a result, approximately 75% of the volumetric ventilation rate required in the north zone could be supplied with the air volume acquired through the system and the monthly mean load was reduced by 29.5%, from 1.584 kWh to 1.117 kWh. The analyses of hourly mean heating and ventilation load over the heating period indicated that the system was very effective at around 13:00. Results show that 33% reduction in the ventilation load and 17% in the heating load for the north zone could be acquired through this system.
