  • To develop the work clothes for the employees in the mechatronics industry in South Korea, a questionnaire survey on many aspects of the work clothes such as type, color, detailed design and function preference of the subject employees has been carried out in the study. The results throughout the survey highlighted certain functions such as extensibility, thermal and air permeability of importance for the work clothing performance. To improve the discomfort caused by some work motions (i.e. squatting down, ascending/descending the stairs, raising arms), more allowances were given to the measurements (i.e. body rise + 2cm and crotch depth + 1cm for squatting down pose; thigh circumference + 1cm and knee circumference + 1cm for ascending/ descending the stairs pose; chest circumference + 5~6cm and jumper length to the level of hip circumference line for raising arms pose) for work clothes patternmaking. The evaluation of the two types of spring/summer and winter work clothes' clothing comfort and wearer mobility suggested certain points to improve the clothing performance (e.g. ventilation slits on the back pleats, arm pits and collar band of the spring/summer suit using net material and lining for the winter suit using quilted thermal materials) and wearer mobility (e.g. pants hem buckles for the easy work motion), which also enabled to fulfill the workers' work clothes design preference.

  • The objective of this paper is to improve a discomfort caused by the unequal airflow and vertical temperature difference by buoyancy of the supplied hot air in the conventional hot air heating system. In order to the model experiment we manufactured the hot air heater with two air outlet and a model room. We observed the temperature, velocity and airflow distribution and calculated values of PMV and PPD using mean value of central verticality section's air temperature and velocity. We could improve distribution of vertical temperature and velocity at the central section of the model room owing to correlation of hot air of two air outlet.

  • The objective of this study is to demonstrate the potential of radiant cooling systems using Ondol as an alternative cooling system in residential buildings. For this purpose, computer simulation and model experiments have been performed for the system performance analysis regarding comfort, floor surface condensation, and supply water temperature. The results of this study is the following: In radiant floor cooling system, room air temperatures were maintained within the set temperature range of $\pm$1$^{\circ}C$ without any discomfort condition. And taking into account only the condensation occurrence, it was possible to achieve radiant floor cooling for a period of about 77% of the total cooling period in weather condition of Seoul. The minimum supply water temperature is about 15$^{\circ}C$, so renewable energy system such as ground heat exchange system can be used as an alternative in cooling source. Also, floor surface condensation can be prevented by integrating with the dehumidification system.

  • Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate heat tolerance using heat tolerance indices, physiological, physical, thermographic, and hematological parameters in Santa Ines and Morada Nova sheep breeds in the Federal District, Brazil. Methods: Twenty-six adult hair sheep, one and a half years old, from two genetic groups (Santa Ines: 12 males and 4 females; Morada Nova: 7 males and 3 females) were used and data (rectal temperature, respiratory rate, heart rate, skin temperatures; hematological parameters) were collected during three consecutive days, twice a day (morning and afternoon), with a total of six repetitions. Also physical parameters (biometric measurements, skin and hair traits) and heat tolerance indices (temperature-humidity index, Iberia and Benezra) were evaluated. The analyses included analyses of variance, correlation, and principal components with a significance level of 5%. Results: The environmental indices, in general, indicate a situation of thermal discomfort for the animals during the afternoon. Breed significantly influenced (p<0.001) physiological and physical characteristics of skin, hair, biometric measurements and Iberia and Benezra heat tolerance indices. Santa Ines animals were bigger and had longer, greater number and darker hair, thicker skin, greater respiratory rate and Benezra index and lower Iberia index compared with Morada Nova breed. Conclusion: Although both breeds can be considered adapted to the environmental conditions of the region, Morada Nova breed is most suitable for farming in the Midwest region. The positive correlation found between the thermographic temperatures and physiological parameters indicates that this technique can be used to evaluate thermal comfort. Also, it has the advantage that animals do not have to be handled, which favors animal welfare.

  • 본 연구는 수원시 도심에 위치한 도시공원인 효원공원을 대상으로 여름철 대기온도 저감효과를 확인하고, 공원을 구성하는 서로 다른 피복유형별 특성을 파악하기 위하여 열 환경을 실측하고 분석하였다. 도시공원의 여름철 대기온도저감효과는 도심주거지 (매탄동) 대비 평균 4.4-4.5%로 통계적으로 유의하였고 (p< 0.001), 수원시의 외곽주거지 (상광교동) 보다는 약 0.8% 낮은 수준이었다. 도시공원 내 피복유형 (보도 블럭, 잔디 식재지, 소나무-잔디 식재지, 수목 차광지 및 혼합림 조경지)에 따른 열환경은 자연소재의 유형일수록 일평균기온, 일최고기온, 여름일수가 낮은 경향을 보였다. 그러나, 일최저기온 및 열대야일수는 피복유형에 따른 상관관계가 뚜렷하게 나타나지 않았다. 오후시간대 (13:00-15:00)에 혼합림 조경지, 수목 차광지, 소나무-잔디 식재지의 불쾌지수 (DI), 습구흑구온도 (WBGT) 및 열지수 (HI)의 평균값이 보도 블록과 잔디 식재지보다 낮아서 자연소재의 피복 유형의 열쾌적성이 양호한 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 각 지수에 대한 등급은 모든 피복 유형에서 '가장 높음' 또는 '주의' 단계로 동일하였다. 한편 오전 (06:00-08:00)에는 토지 피복유형별 열쾌적성에 차이가 없었다. 결론적으로 도시에서 열 환경을 개선하기 위하여는 초지, 숲 및 개방 지역의 토지 피복 유형을 증가하여야 한다.

  • 본 연구에서는 다양한 실내 온열환경 및 조도에서 재실자가 느끼는 조명에 대한 감성의 변화와 작업의 종류에 따라 생체신호를 분석하여 업무에 미치는 영향에 대해 살펴보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 실내 온열환경은 PMV(predicted mean vote) 지표 값을 기반으로 환경을 구성하였고, 조명환경은 LED광원을 이용한 스탠드를 통해 조명의 밝기에 변화를 주어 다양한 실내 환경을 구성하고 실험을 진행하였다. 주어진 환경에서 설문지를 통해 조명에 대한 감성을 평가하고 종류가 다른 오류검색수정 작업을 진행하면서 뇌파와 심전도를 측정하여 변화를 분석하였다. 그 결과, 작업의 종류에 대한 모든 생체신호는 온열환경의 변화와 유의적인 차이를 보였으며, PMV 지표 값이 0.8(온도: $25^{\circ}C$, 습도: 50 %)일 경우 집중력 및 주의력이 가장 활성화 되었다. 하지만, 조도의 변화에는 대체적으로 유의적인 차이는 보이지 않았다. 따라서 재실자의 업무 능력에 미치는 집중력은 온열환경과 밀접함을 확인할 수 있다. 또한, 조명에 대한 주관적인 감성은 조도가 낮을수록 편안함을 느꼈으며, 조도가 높을수록 불편함을 느꼈다. 하지만 온열환경의 변화에는 유의적인 차이가 없었다.

  • Objectives: The purpose of this study was to identify the major volatile organic compounds generated during extrusion work with nylon 66 resin and evaluate causes of discomfort among extrusion workers. Methods: A thermal decomposition experiment using nylon 66 resin collected at a worksite was conducted in the laboratory. Based on hazards identified through the thermal decomposition experiment, the exposure levels of the workers were evaluated. Results: The major decomposition products were formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, aniline, cyclopentanone and diphenyl amine. These materials were identical to those sampled in the extrusion booth. The sources of the annoying smells, about which the workers had complained, were formaldehyde, aniline, diphenyl amine, and other hazards in the vapor and fine particles produced by the extrusion work. Formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, and aniline were detected from air samples among workers involved in extrusion work. However, the concentration levels were much lower than Korean occupational exposure limits. The average concentration levels of formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, and aniline were 0.0120 ppm, 0.0036 ppm and 0.0006 ppm, respectively. Conclusions: The extrusion process at around $300^{\circ}C$ thermally decomposes the nylon 66 resin, emitting formaldehyde, aniline, and other hazards, which might have made workers uncomfortable due to their smells. The workers exposure levels to volatile organic compounds were far lower than Korean occupational exposure limits. However, since formaldehyde is a human carcinogen and acetaldehyde and aniline are also confirmed animal carcinogens, it is recommended that exposure levels should be maintained at a minimum level.
