Scale model measurements should be conducted under an actual sky or in a simulated sky where conditions can be held constant. A number of successful attempts have been made to develop artificial sky domes with man-made sun emulators. With reference to formerly-developed examples, sky simulator facility has recently been activated in oder to provide desirable sky conditions for teaching and studies. The structure is a 6m-diameter dome and promises to set various condition for energy related and lighting research activities. The sky dome is also equipped a heliodon, the tilt table, to facilitate additive direct sun impact under clear skies. Shading studies, using scale models with the heliodon, reveal how a building's design blocks or permits light's passage to the interior; solar access studies, and tests of the reflection and transmittance characteristics of new daylighting technologies. The design and construction specification and the initial operating experience with a building configuration are reported.

Background: The photosynthetic efficiency cool-season, semi-shade ginseng is normal at low morning temperatures, but drops at high afternoon temperatures. Therefore, optimal plant performance would be ensured if it were possible to control daily light transmission rates (LTR). Methods and Results: Plants were grown in a controlled light environment that replicated 11 AM conditions and comparatively analyzed against plant grown under normal conditions. Growth in the controlled light environment resulted in a 2.81 fold increase in photosynthetic efficiency with no change in chlorophyll content, although LTR were high due to low morning temperatures. Increased aerial plant growth was observed in the ginseng plants adapted to the controlled light environment, which in turn influenced root weight. An 81% increase in fresh root weight (33.3 g per plant on average) was observed in 4-year-old ginseng plants grown in controlled light environment compared to the plants grown following conventional practices (18.4 g per plant on average). With regard to the inorganic composition of leaves of 4-year-old ginseng plants grown in controlled light environment, an increased in Fe content was observed, while Mn and Zn content decreased, and total ginsenoside content of roots increased 2.37 fold. Conclusions: Growth of ginseng under a favorable light environment, such as the condition which exist naturally at 11 AM and are suitable for the plant's photosynthetic activity creates the possibility of large scale production, excellent-quality ginseng.

본 연구는 폭염 시 동-서향 가로의 북측 보도($N35^{\circ}10.73{\sim}10.75^{\prime}$, $E128^{\circ}55.90-58.00^{\prime}$, 표고: 50m)에서 기상측정장비, 순복사계, 반사구와 열화상카메라를 이용한 실측을 통해 가로수와 쉘터에 의한 차양이 인체가 체감하는 열환경에 주는 영향을 MRT, L-MRT, UTCI, 바닥면, 벽면, 천개면의 구성요소별 방사온도로 평가하였다. 이를 위해 1 및 2열 가로수와 생울타리, 쉘터와 어-닝, 햇빛 노출지에 대한 열환경을 측정하였다. 9일간 오전 10시부터 오후 4시까지의 선 자세의 인체가 흡수한 매 1분 간격 인체-생기상학적 자료 그리고 1일간 오후 1시 16분부터 35분까지 보도 구성요소의 방사온도를 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 가로수와 쉘터에 의한 차양은 여름철 낮 동안 UTCI를 감소시킴으로써 열스트레스를 완화하였는데, 햇빛 노출지에 비해 1 가로수와 생울타리는 0.4단계~0.5단계, 2열 가로수와 생울타리는 0.5단계~0.8단계, 쉘터와 어-닝은 0.3단계~1.0단계로 낮추어 주었다. 하지만 폭염 시에는 가로수와 쉘터 하부의 열환경도 이용자들에게 대부분의 시간대에 "매우 강한 열스트레스"를 주는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 햇빛에 노출된 보도 상의 열환경은 "매우 강한 열스트레스" 또는 "극심한 열스트레스"를 주는 것으로 나타났다. 체온 $37^{\circ}C$를 기준으로 한 보도 구성요소의 열스트레스 부하온도는 포장면 $7.4^{\circ}C{\sim}21.4^{\circ}C$, 도로면 $14.7^{\circ}C{\sim}15.8^{\circ}C$, 쉘터의 캐노피 $12.7^{\circ}C$, 어-닝 $8.6^{\circ}C$, 가로시설물 $7.0^{\circ}C$, 건물벽면 $3.5^{\circ}C{\sim}6.4^{\circ}C$ 순으로 나타났다. 열스트레스 부하율은 포장면 34.9%~81.0%, 도로면 9.6%~25.2%, 쉘터의 캐노피 24.8%, 건물벽면 14.1%~15.4%, 어-닝 7.0%, 가로시설물 5.7% 순으로 나타났다. 보도에서 보행자의 열적 쾌적성을 개선하기 위해서는 차양을 통해 포장면 및 도로면 그리고 건물벽면의 방사온도를 낮추는 것이 가장 효율적이며, 이를 위해서는 최소한의 정지와 전정을 통해 가로수의 수관투영면적과 LAI를 높여야 하며, 도로변에 지엽이 치밀한 생울타리를 조성하는 것은 필수적이다. 그리고 쉘터나 어-닝의 표면온도를 낮추기 위해서 서멀 라이너, 고반사 재료, 식생 녹화 등의 대책을 강구할 필요가 있다. 아울러 건물벽면에 재귀반사 재료를 사용함으로써 반사광을 제어하여야 하며, 적극적으로는 보도 포장 표면온도를 낮추기 위해 보도 포장면에 물을 뿌리는 것이 효율적이다.

Background and objective: This study was conducted to compare the cultivation environment, growth of cut flowers, and management performance of conventional farms and smart farms growing the standard cut chrysanthemum, 'Jinba'. Methods: Conventional and smart farms were selected, and facility information, cultivation environment, cut flower growth, and management performance were investigated. Results: The conventional and smart farms were located in Muan, Jeollanam-do, and conventional farming involved cultivating with soil culture in a plastic greenhouse, while the smart farm was cultivating with hydroponics in a plastic greenhouse. The conventional farm did not have sensors for environmental measurement such as light intensity and temperature and pH and EC sensors for fertigation, and all systems, including roof window, side window, thermal screen, and shading curtain, were operated manually. On the other hand, the smart farm was equipped with sensors for measuring the environment and nutrient solution, and was automatically controlled. The day and night mean temperatures, relative humidity, and solar radiation in the facilities of the conventional and the smart farm were managed similarly. But in the floral differentiation stage, the floral differentiation was delayed, as the night temperature of conventional farm was managed as low as 17.7℃ which was lower than smart farm. Accordingly, the harvest of cut flowers by the conventional farm was delayed to 35 days later than that of the smart farm. Also, soil moisture and EC of the conventional farm were unnecessarily kept higher than those of the smart farm in the early growth stage, and then were maintained relatively low during the period after floral differentiation, when a lot of water and nutrients were required. Therefore, growth of cut flower, cut flower length, number of leaves, flower diameter, and weight were poorer in the conventional farm than in the smart farm. In terms of management performance, yield and sales price were 10% and 38% higher for the smart farm than for the conventional farm, respectively. Also, the net income was 2,298 thousand won more for the smart farm than for the conventional farm. Conclusion: It was suggested that the improved growth of cut flowers and high management performance of the smart farm were due to precise environment management for growth by the automatic control and sensor.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of sawdust bedding barn on manure handing, management labour and physiological aspect of dairy cows, and then to establish the criteria on the optimum utilization method of sawdust bedding barn. 46 tie stall barns and 49 sawdust bedding barns were surveyed to cmopare the milk productivity between two different barns, and also 5 tie stall barns, 15 sawdust bedding barns and 1 rice hull bedding barn were selected to study the utilization situation of sawdust barn in Kyung-Ki province area. The major results obtained were as follows; 1. The roof material of sawdust barn were consisted of 66% vinyl house, 23% PVC light and 11% slate and galvanum coated tin. Most of the floor structure was earth ground with the rate of the approximately 82%. 2. The average occupied area of sawdust bed per cow was 15.2 $m^2$, depth that 30 cm and the utilization period was 12 months. 3. Milk Yield was significantly higher at sawdust barn than at tie stall barn(P<0.01). Bacterial and somatic cell count in raw milk were less at the sawdust barn than in tie stall barn. However, there was not significance difference between two barns. 4. The labour hour needed to cow management in the sawdust barn was approximately 48% of that of tie stall barn. 5. The temperature and moisture content measured in sawdust bed were closely affected by seasonal ambient temperature. The skin and hair of cow were much cleaner at the PVC light roofed sawdust barn than any other roof materials. 6. The additives used for improving of fermentation did not show any effect on temperature and moisture content in sawdust bed. When the ambient temperature was $30.4^{\circ}C$, the surface temperature of measured 1 cm above the sawdust bed was $12.2^{\circ}C$ lower and the temperature of 100 cm above the sawdust bed was $2.4^{\circ}C lower under shading net facility than that of vinyl roofed one.7. The hoof length of miking cow was 7.95 cm in tie stall and 9.19 cm in sawdust barn with high significance (P<0.01). And disease occurence such as mastitis and foot-rot tended to decrease in the sawdust barn. 8. The number of total bacteria and coliform bacteria were less in the sawdust bed compared with earth ground resting area. And a parasite strongyloides papillosus was detected but without any infected cow. 9. The nitrate($NO_3N$) content in non-roofed earth ground resting area and earth ground under the sawdust bed was likely to pollute the ground water. 10. In economic point of view, rice hull bedding barn was the cheapest among different systems. And in the sawdust bedding barn PVC light + slate roofed barn was most desirable, and vinyl roofed one the least.
