The present study has been conducted to tune a PID controller for large thermal systems such as a thermal environment chamber. In spite of large thermal mass of the thermal chamber under test, its response delay time was found to be negligible mainly due to high air recirculation rate. In general, heating and cooling capacities tend to be small compared the size of a thermal environment chamber, which leads to long transient periods of one hour or so. In the study, a PI tuning method is suggested which makes system responses faster while reducing overshoots and hunting by utilizing efficiently proportional band of actuators.

The present paper studies the thermally-induced vibration phenomenon of the flexible space boom structure. In order to simulate the thermally-induced vibration phenomenon of the flexible thin boom structure of the spacecraft with the attached tip mass in space, the thermally-induced vibration including thermal flutter is experimentally investigated at various thermal environments using a heating lamp in vacuum chamber. In this experimental study, fluctuating characteristics, natural frequency and thermal strains of the thermally-induced vibration are parametrically investigated at various thermal environment conditions. Finally the thermally-induced vibration of the flexible boom structure of the orbiting earth satellite in solar radiation environment from the earth eclipse region including umbra and penumbra is simulated using the power control of the heating lamp in the vacuum chamber.

차세대 대형위성에 대한 우주환경모사를 위한 대형열진공챔버가 한국항공우주연구원에 의해 성공적으로 국산화 구축되었다. 유효직경 8미터, 유효깊이 10미터의 대형열진공챔버는 크게 진공계와 열제어계, 방진계로 구분되며, $3.7{\times}10^{-5}Pa$($5{\times}10^{-7}torr$) 이하의 진공 환경에서 액체질소를 이용해 위성을 감싸는 쉬라우드의 온도를 $-190^{\circ}C$ 이하로 유지할 수 있고, $10^{-5}g_{rms}$ 이하의 진동레벨을 갖는 방진시스템을 갖추어 우주환경에서의 광학시험을 가능하게 한다. 또한 챔버내에 설치된 할로겐램프를 이용하여 쉬라우드의 온도를 섭씨 123도까지 상승시켜 베이크아웃 시험을 수행할 수 있으며, PLC(Programmable Logic Controller)를 기반으로 한 제어프로그램을 이용하여 대형열진공챔버의 자동화 제어를 수행할 수 있다.

본 연구는 인공위성 탑재품 열진공 시험시 적용된 열환경 조건, 탑재품 시험용 열진공 챔버의 형상, 위성체 내부의 열환경들을 고려하여 열진공 시험 과정을 모사하는 수치해석모델을 설계하여 열해석을 수행하였다. 피시험체인 탑재품과 열진공 챔버 구성요소의 시간에 따른 온도 변화를 보여주는 과도적(Transient) 해석 결과를 구할 수 있다. 열해석에 의한 성능향상 설계를 반영하여 업그레이드한 열진공 챔버를 이용한 탑재품 환경시험을 수행하였으며, 시험 결과와 열해석 결과에 대한 비교/검증을 수행하였다.

TRiplet Ionospheric Observatory-CubeSat for Ion, Neutron, Electron & MAgnetic fields (TRIO-CINEMA) is a CubeSat with 3.14 kg in weight and 3-U ($10{\times}10{\times}30$ cm) in size, jointly developed by Kyung Hee University and UC Berkeley to measure magnetic fields of near Earth space and detect plasma particles. When a satellite is launched into orbit, it encounters ultra-high vacuum and extreme temperature. To verify the operation and survivability of the satellite in such an extreme space environment, experimental tests are conducted on the ground using thermal vacuum chamber. This paper describes the temperature control device and monitoring system suitable for CubeSat test environment using the thermal vacuum chamber of the School of Space Research, Kyung Hee University. To build the chamber, we use a general purpose thermal analysis program and NX 6.0 TMG program. We carry out thermal vacuum tests on the two flight models developed by Kyung Hee University based on the thermal model of the TRIO-CINEMA satellite. It is expected from this experiment that proper operation of the satellite in the space environment will be achieved.

A thermal vacuum chamber is mainly used to simulate thermal environments of a test satellite in satellite orbits in which daily temperature variations range from 80K to above 400K depending on solar radiation under the vacuum below $10^{-4}$ torr. The test facility is quite complex and consists of expensive parts. So any modification of control software is discouraged in fear of unexpected system failure. The purpose of this study is to develop a realtime dynamics model of the thermal vacuum chamber in view of controller design and simulate its electrical inputs and outputs for interface with a PLC (programmable logic controller). A PLC program that was used in the thermal vacuum chamber is applied to the realtime simulator. The realized simulator dynamics is found to be quite similar to that of the thermal vacuum chamber and serve to an appropriate plant to verify the control performance of a programmed PLC.

인공위성의 부품은 발사 전 지상에서의 우주 궤도환경 하에서의 성능검증이 필수적이다. 본 논문은 열진공시험을 위한 위성 부품 및 소형 열진공챔버 간의 전도, 복사, 열손실 및 내부 발열의 열환경을 고려한 모델식을 설계하였다. 최근 한국항공우주연구원에서 수행된 열진공시험 20건의 시험데이터를 이용한 시스템 식별을 수행하였다. 시험품 기능시험의 발열이 일정하지 않는 경우를 제외하고 시스템 식별의 정확성을 확인함으로써 개발된 모델식이 유효함을 검증하였다.

The PEM(Personal Environment Module) system is an individual air conditioning system developed in order to improve thermal comfort in office buildings. In this study, thermal characteristics of a PEM system have measured experimentally and compared with UFAC(Under Floor hir Conditioning) system in the EC(Environment Chamber) constructed in KIER. Results showed that the PEM system was better than UFAC system for thermal comfort and energy conservation.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the difference of thermal sensation by radiant floor heating as ecological design element. The experimental investigations were carried out in climate chamber, and subjects were 34 college-age females in good health. The experimental variable was radiant heat by floor heating, and experimental controlled conditions were indoor temperature, relative humidity, and air velocity in climate chamber and clothing value and activity of subjects. The results are as follows. (1) Indoor temperature($21{\pm}0.5^{\circ}C$) in climate chamber were maintained as controlling. Clothing values of the subjects were controlled as average 0.73 clo. In the floor heating-off, globe temperature was average $23.2^{\circ}C$(22.4~24.1), but in the floor heating-on, globe temperature was average $24.8^{\circ}C$(23.0~25.5). (2) In the floor heating-off, thermal sensation rating was average -1.03(slightly cool), in the floor heating-on, thermal sensation rating was average +1.03(slightly warm). (3) There were the differences of thermal sensation by radiant floor heating although indoor temperatures were maintained in an equal state. (4) The thermal sensation rating was tending upward according as the globe temperature was getting higher.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the psychophysical correponding to temperature and to establish the comfort zone of thermal environment for Korean in winter. An experimental investigation was carried out in climate chamber maintaining the air temperature at 20, 22, 24, 26℃ and subjects were 128 college-age Korean(64 males and 64 females) in good health. Data were analyzed by SPSS PC＋ packages. 'Neutral' on the thermal sensation ratings was most frequently indicated at 24℃ by subjects was 23.1℃ (male 24.0℃, female 22.7℃), therefore the comfort zone of thermal environment in winter was considered as 23∼24℃.
