Purpose: The objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of the conical solar concentrator (CSC) system, whose design is focused on increasing its collecting efficiency by determining the optimal conical angle through a theoretical study. Methods: The design and thermal performance analysis of a solar concentrator system based on a $45^{\circ}$ conical concentrator were conducted utilizing different mass flow rates. For an accurate comparison of these flow rates, three equivalent systems were tested under the same operating conditions, such as the incident direct solar radiation, and ambient and inlet temperatures. In order to minimize heat loss, the optimal double tube absorber length was selected by considering the law of reflection. A series of experiments utilizing water as operating fluid and two-axis solar tracking systems were performed under a clear or cloudless sky. Results: The analysis results of the CSC system according to varying mass flow rates showed that the collecting efficiency tended to increase as the flow rate increased. However, the collecting efficiency decreased as the flow rate increased beyond the optimal value. In order to optimize the collecting efficiency, the conical angle, which is a design factor of CSC, was selected to be $45^{\circ}$ because its use theoretically yielded a low heat loss. The collecting efficiency was observed to be lowest at 0.03 kg/s and highest at 0.06 kg/s. All efficiencies were reduced over time because of variations in ambient and inlet temperatures throughout the day. The maximum efficiency calculated at an optimum flow rate of 0.06 kg/s was 85%, which is higher than those of the other flow rates. Conclusions: It was reasonable to set the conical angle and mass flow rate to achieve the maximum CSC system efficiency in this study at $45^{\circ}$ and 0.06 kg/s, respectively.

Damk$\ddot{o}$hler수가 클 때 복사열손실에 의한 소염근처에서 셀모양의 대향류확산화염의 특성에 대하여 수치해석적으로 연구하였다. Lewis 수를 0.5로 두고 일차원 정상상태의 화염의 해에 매우 작은 교란을 가하여 시간에 따른 화염전개를 계산하였다. 천이과정 초기에는 선형안정성 해석에서 예측된 결과와 매우 비슷하게 진행된다. 시간이 증가함에 따라 증가율이 가장 강한 파동수를 갖는 교란파가 성장하고, 완전히 발달되면 소염영역과 화염영역이 번갈아 나타나는 셀모양의 화염구조를 갖는다. 화염온도는 총엔탈피의 국소 이득 때문에 일차원 정상상태의 화염온도보다 높다. 셀모양의 확산화염은 Damk$\ddot{o}$hler 수가 증가함에 따라 셀의 모양이 원형으로 되며 일차원 정상상태 소염조건보다 큰 Damk$\ddot{o}$hler 수에서도 셀모양의 화염은 꺼지지 않고 살아남는다.

Purpose: Recently, significant heat loss through the window takes place in buildings. Nevertheless, there exists little literature concerning the exterior horizontal shading devices and the design criteria are not clearly settled yet. Applying the exterior horizontal shading devices is more efficient as compared to the interior shading devices in that solar radiation can be directly blocked before passing through the window or the envelope. The purpose of this study is to reduce the internal load by designing the exterior horizontal shading devices and verify the degree of reduction in energy consumption. Method: This study aims to reduce energy consumption in cooling and heating through proposing proper length and shape of the exterior horizontal shading devices in public buildings. In the process, actual energy data and the Design Builder simulation program are utilized. In addition, economic aspect is considered to figure out the optimal length of the exterior horizontal shading devices that maximizes efficiency. Result: As a result, the proper length and shape of the exterior horizontal shading devices are provided as follows: 1) Energy consumption in cooling and heating is minimized when the exterior horizontal shading devices are designed as 0.5m*2. 2) Electricity bill is the lowest when the exterior horizontal shading devices are designed as 3.3m*2. The gap between maximum and minimum electricity bill is about 7.8~14%.

Flame characteristics and NO emission behavior in $CH_4$/air-air premixed counterflow flames with applying FIR and FGR with $CO_2$ and $H_2O$ were investigated numerically by varying the ratios of FIR and FGR as well as global strain rate. Chemical effects of added $CO_2$ and $H_2O$ via FIR and FGR were analyzed through comparing flame characteristics and NO behaviors from real species($CO_2$ and $H_2O$) with those from their artificial species($XCO_2$ and $XH_2O$) which have the same thermochemical, radiative, and transport properties to those for the real species. The results showed that flame temperature and NO emission with FIR varied much more sensitively than that with FGR. Those varied little irrespective of adding $CO_2$, $H_2O$, and their artificial species to the fuel stream via FIR. However, Those were varied complicatedly by chemical effects of added $CO_2$ and $H_2O$ via FGR. Detailed analyses for them were made and discussed.

In order to reduce the energy consumption of the building, much effort is being made. The problems are that excessive solar radiation in summer and the heat loss in winter by the increase of window area. To prevent this problems, government limited the window area ratio or the performance of windows in new buildings. In order to reduce energy consumption of the existing buildings, the window film insulation is spotlight because the window film insulation was simple to installation. This study confirmed the performance of the window film insulation and affect to heating & cooling load of buildings. The impact of the window film insulation coating was confirmed by experiment. And this study confirmed the annual heating & cooling load by simulation. As a results, the surface temperature of coated window was higher than the surface temperature of existing window. The window film insulation was increased surface temperature of window. And this study confirmed that the increased surface temperature was slightly affected the room air temperature through experiment of the insulation box. The results of the heating and cooling load by simulation, this study confirmed that the case of coated window film insulation decreased cooling load in summer and increased heating load in winter. Also the annual total heating & cooling load was increased a little in the case of coated the window film insulation.

Low-emissivity (low-e) coatings with visible transparency have attracted increased interest m reducing heat radiation loss through window panes from ecological and sustainable aspects. $TiO_2$-silver transparent thin films for low-e have good properties for UV and IR blocking as well as photocatalyst compared to that with commercial UV blocking films such as fluorine doped oxide (FTO), antimony doped tin oxide (ATO), etc. In this study, transparent $TiO_2$-silver thin films were prepared by successive ink-jet printing of commercial nano silver and $TiO_2$ sol. The $TiO_2$ sol, as ink for ink-jet printing, were synthesized by hydrothermal process in the autoclave externally pressurized with $N_2$ gas of 200 bar at $120^{\circ}C$ for 10 hrs. The synthesized $TiO_2$ sols were all formed with brookite phase and their particle size was several to 30 nm. At first nano sized silver sol was coated on glass substrate, after that $TiO_2$ sol was coated by ink-jet printing. With increasing coating thickness of $TiO_2$-silver multilayer by repeated ink-jet coating, the absorbance of UV region (under 400nm) and IR region (over 700nm) also increase reasonably, compared to that with commercial UV blocking films.

미강을 아무런 처리를 하지 않거나, 고온처리 또는 방사선 조사하여 저장하면서 수분 및 유리지방산 함량, peroxide value (POV)등의 변화를 측정하여 미강 지방의 안정성을 검토하였다. 무처리 미강을 $-15^{\circ}C,\;4^{\circ}C,\;37^{\circ}C$및 실온$(15-30^{\circ}C)$에 저장하였을 때, 수분은 초기에 약 14%이었으며 저장온도가 높을수록 수분 손실이 많았고, $37^{\circ}C$에서 80일 저장시 수분이 9%로 되었다. 유리지방산은 초기에 약 2.5%이었으며 저장중 $-15^{\circ}C$에서는 거의 일정하였으나 그외의 온도에서는 온도가 높을수록 현저히 증가하여 $37^{\circ}C$에 80일 저장하였을 때 약 9배 정도 증가하였다. POV는 $37^{\circ}C$ 이외의 온도에서 약 80일 저장한 미강의 경우에 초기보다 약 2배 증가하였는데 $37^{\circ}C$에 저장한 미강의 경우에는 5배 정도의 증가를 보였다. 미강을 $70^{\circ}C,\;90^{\circ}C,\;105^{\circ}C$에서 열처리하여 $37^{\circ}C$에서 2주간 저장하였을 때 수분은 열처리 온도가 높고 시간이 길수록 저장 후에 수분함량이 낮아졌다. 미강을 $90^{\circ}C$에서 2시간 또는 $105^{\circ}C$에서 1시간 이강 열처리했을 때 유리지방산의 생성이 저지되었으며, 미강 지방의 POV는 열처리에 의해서 특이한 변화가 없었다. 미강을 1-30 kGy의 방사선 조사를 하여 $5^{\circ}C$ 및 $30^{\circ}C$에 4주간 저장하였을 때 수분은 방사선 조사에 의한 차이가 없었다. 유리지방산은 10 kGy까지 큰 차이가 없었으나 30 kGy 처리한 미강은 처리하지 않은 것보다 약 1.5배 정도 증가하였으나 저장 중에는 큰 변화를 보이지 않았다. 방사선 조사 직후의 POV는 방사선 조사량이 높을수록 증가하여 30 kGy의 경우에 무처리보다 약 4배 정도 높았으나, 저장 중에는 방사선 조사한 미강의 경우에 POV가 현저히 감소하였다.

A sunday system with a horizontal bin-type composter was constructed and operated to evaluate its composting performance for four days for each test in October, 1992. A sundry system is one of popular systems for composting livestock manure, of which main benefit is to utilize unlimited, clean, and free solar radiation. A rectangular concrete bin(composter) with dimension of 300cm(length) X90cm(width) X60cm(height) was bedded alternatively with four lanes of aeration pipes and heating pipes, and was insulated at three walls with 50mm styrofoam. Each aeration pipe of a diameter of 25mm had 4mm perforated holes at every 15cm longitudinally, and supplied air of about 2m$^3$/min to the composter to maintain aerobic condition . A stirrer rotating at 1 rpm made one round trip every 20 minutes on the conveying chain along the the length of the composter. Five tests (Test 1~Test 5) were implemented to evaluate the composting effectiveness of a sundry system with a horizontal bin-type composter. Treatments of two levels of the mixture ratio of swine manure and paper sludge cakes(manure : paper sludge cakes= 1 : 4 and 1 : 2) and two levels of the water content(W/C ; 70% and 50%) were made to test the significance of the physicochemical properties for decomposition of the mixture materials. Temperature, C/N ratio, water content, microbial activity of the composting materials were taken measurements to evaluate its performance with the lapse of composting time for tests. A small-scale sundry system with a bin-type composter did not appear to be an appropriate system for composting livestock manure. Since heat generation by the composting materials could not overcome heat loss due to areation in a small-scale composter, a proper thermal enviroment could not be maintained to propagate massively thermopilic microorganism relatively in a short period of time. Different from the result of Chol et al.(1992) 6), a temperature variation of the composting materials did not show the peak clearly and C/N ratio didn't lower with time as expected. Mesophilic microoragnism seemed to play an important role for decomposition of the mixture materials. A sundry system with a bin-type composter may be good for a large-scale livestock farm household which may produce enough animal manure. Therefore a decision should be made very carefully to choose a system for composting livestock waste.

본 연구는 미국 샌프란시스코시 수목 음영이 개별 건물 지붕 및 옥상에 입사되는 태양에너지 잠재량에 미치는 영향을 LiDAR를 이용한 고해상도 3차원 수치모델을 이용하여 공간적으로 정량화하였다. 최근 분산형 태양광 발전이 기후변화 대응에 중요한 부분으로 주목받고 있으나, 이러한 도심 태양광 발전은 주변부의 지형, 건물, 지붕모양, 수목 등의 음영에 의해 발전량이 제한되는 특성이 있다. 특히 건물 주변의 수목의 경우 도시열섬현상의 저감, 냉난방 에너지 수요량의 절감 등의 순기능과 태양광 발전량 감소의 역기능을 동시에 가지고 있어 두 가지 효용의 상충을 최소화하기 위해 해당 위치에 대한 공간적 분석이 요구된다. 샌프란시스코시 전체 건물 지붕면적의 태양에너지 총량은 년간 18,326,671 MWh으로, 수목의 음영에 의한 감소량은 326,406 MWh로 총량의 1.78%에 해당하였다. 건물지붕의 단위 면적당 일조량은 $34.4kWh/m^2/year$에서 $1,348.4kWh/m^2/year$ 범위로 산출되었다. 본 연구를 통해 도심 수목에 의한 건물별 일조에너지 감소량의 공간자료가 구축되었으며, 개별 건물지붕에 일조량의 변이를 주변 수목의 밀도, 평균수고, 수고의 분산값을 이용한 회귀모델을 통해 설명하였다. 본 연구는 도심수목의 환경적 순기능을 유지함과 동시에 태양광 발전 감소량의 최소화 할 수 있는 방법을 제공함으로써 지속가능한 도시를 구축하는데 기여할 것으로 기대된다.
