본 연구는 국내 가정에서 사용하고 있는 냉장고 및 냉동고의 온도 분포에 대한 현황을 파악하기 위하여 냉장고 대상 25가구, 냉동고 대상 25가구를 선정하고 온도 측정을 시행하였다. 가정용 냉장 및 냉동고의 실제 공간상의 온도 분포 조사 결과, 냉장고 대상 가구에서 측정된 온도는 최저 -8.2℃, 최고 15.8℃, 평균 3.73℃로 조사되었으며, 공간 위치별 온도 분포는 문 보관 칸 5.06±1.69℃, 내부벽면 4.18±1.19℃, 내부 보관함 3.41±1.36℃로 내부 보관함의 온도가 가장 낮았고, 각 위치에서 상단 및 하단의 유의적인 온도 차이는 문 보관 칸에서만 확인되었다(P<0.01). 냉동고 대상 가구에서 측정된 온도는 최저 -30.3℃, 최고 0.7℃, 평균 -17.95℃로 조사되었으며, 공간 위치별 온도 분포는 문 보관 칸 -17.19±1.68℃, 내부 벽면 -17.81±1.07℃, 내부 보관함 -18.78±1.72℃로 냉장고 결과와 동일하게 내부 보관함의 온도가 가장 낮고, 문 보관 칸에서만 상·하단의 유의적인 온도 차가 확인되었다(P<0.01). 냉장·냉동고 내에서 위치별 최대 온도 차이는 각각 2.18℃, 2.02℃로 확인되었으며, 결론적으로 냉장·냉동고 전체의 온도가 일정하게 유지되는 것이 아니며, 보관되는 위치별로 유의적인 편차가 존재하는 것으로 나타났다. 이에 따라 냉장·냉동고 제조사와 공공기관에서 식품별 권장 보관 위치를 고객들에게 적극적으로 권고하고, 각 가정에서는 온도 변화에 민감한 식품을 보관할 경우 문쪽 보관을 지양하는 등 보관관리 의식을 가져야 할 것으로 사료된다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the storage and cooking of eggs in addition to the purchase of special eggs. This survey was tarried out through questionnaire and subjects were 429 housewives whose children were middle or high school students in Kyunggi-do and Inchon. Most housewives began to purchase special eggs one year ago. When housewives purchased special eggs, the first consideration was in order of nutrition, freshness, price and preference. The higher housewives' education level was, the higher they took nutrition into consideration. More than half of housewives replied that the proper package of special eggs was 10 eggs or more, and perceived that the period between producers of eggs and consumers was less than 5 days. Most housewives did the freshness test by checking roughness of shell surface or the interior quality of egg yolk and white after purchase. Also most housewives stored eggs in the inside rack of refrigerator door. Most housewives served dishes made from eggs more than 2 or 3 times per week and perceived that soft-boiled eggs are foods easy of digestion. These results suggested that it is necessary to supply fresh and nutritious eggs and to develop various dishes made from eggs for quickly-prepared meals.

냉동컨테이너는 외부 환경에 의해 냉동기가 있는 적재부의 전면과 컨테이너 문이 있는 적재부의 후면부 사이에 온도 편차가 발생한다. 특히, 신선화물 운송에서 이러한 온도 편차는 화물의 신선도에 큰 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 연구에서는 온도 편차를 줄이기 위해 T-Floor를 부분적으로 차폐하고, T-Floor 차폐율이 냉동컨테이너 적재부 온도 변화에 미치는 영향을 평가하여 온도 편차를 최소화하는 방법을 제안한다. 실험 대상은 40 feet 스마트 냉동컨테이너로 T-Floor 차폐율은 0%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%로 설계 변수를 설정하였다. 실험 결과, 차폐율에 따라 냉동컨테이너 적재부의 온도 편차가 다르게 발생하였으며, 차폐율 60%인 경우 온도 편차가 가장 균일한 것을 확인했다. 이러한 적재부 온도 편차 최소화를 통해 스마트 냉동컨테이너를 이용하여 신선 화물의 운송 시 화물의 부패 및 냉해를 예방할 수 있다.

This study was intended to provide the basic design creteria for the refrigerated storage, and to estimate the required optimum capacity of refrigerator for the different sizes and kinds of the existing fruit storage. The structural characteristics of the existing fruit storages in Pyungtaek-khun of Kyungki-do were surveyed. The average out-door air temperature during the expected storage life after harvesting, was obtained by analyzing the weather information. The heat transfer rates through the different models of storage walls were estimated. The refrigerating load required for different models of fruit storage was analyzed in the basis of out-door air temperature. The results obtained in this study are summarized as follows: 1. The fruit storages surveyed were constructed on-ground, under-ground and sub-ground type buildings. The majority of them being the on-ground buildings are mostly made of earth bricks with double walls. Rice hull was mostly used as the insulating materials for their walls and ceilings. About 42% of the buildings were with the horizontal ceiling, 22% with sloped ceiling, and about 36% without ceiling. About 60% of the storage buildings had floor without using insulated material. They were made of compacted earth. 2. There is no difference in heat transfer among six different types of double walls. The double wall, however, gives much less heat transfer than the single wall. Therefore, the double wall is recommended as the walls of the fruit storage on the point of heat transfer. Especially, in case of the single wall using concrete, the heat transfer is about five time of the double walls. It is evident that concrete is not proper wall material for the fruit storage without using special insulating material. 3. The heat transfer through the storage walls is in inverse proportion to the thickness of rice hull which is mostly used as the insulating material in the surveyed area. It is recommended that the thickness of rice hull used as the insulating material far storage wall is about 20cm in consideration of the decreasing rate of heat transfer and the available storage area. 4. The design refrigerating load for the on-ground storages having 20 pyung area is estimated in 4.07 to 4.16 ton refrigeration for double walls, and 5.23 to 6.97 ton refrigeration for single walls. During the long storage life, however, the average daily refrigerating load is ranged from 0.93 to 0.95 ton refrigeration for double walls, and from 1.15 to 1.47 ton refrigeration for single walls, respectively. 5. In case of single walls, 50.8 to 61.4 percent to total refrigerating load during the long storage life is caused by the heat transferred into the room space through walls, ceiling and floor. On the other hand, 39.1 to 40.7 percent is for the double walls. 6. The design and average daily refrigerating load increases in linear proportion to the size of storage area. As the size increases, the increasing rate of the refrigerating load is raised in proportion to the heat transfer rate of the wall. 7. The refrigerating load during the long storage life has close relationship to the out-door air temperature. The maximum refrigeration load is shown in later May, which is amounted to about 50 percent to the design refrigerating load. 8. It is noted that when the wall material having high heat transfer rate, such as the single wall made of concrete, is used, heating facilities are required for the period of later December to early February.

This article reviews the papers published in the Korean Journal of Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration Engineering during 2014. It is intended to understand the status of current research in the areas of heating, cooling, ventilation, sanitation, and indoor environments of buildings and plant facilities. Conclusions are as follows. (1) The research works on the thermal and fluid engineering have been reviewed as groups of heat and mass transfer, cooling and heating, and air-conditioning, the flow inside building rooms, and smoke control on fire.
