The principle of Korean Traditional Housing was to be harmonized with the nature with shapes according to regional climate and materials easily available from the region. These environmentally friendly characteristics protected indoor environment from climate changes. The characteristics of Korean traditional housing to control indoor environment would be very useful for contemporary housing in that current issues, improving housing amenity and wellbeing, had basic goals same with what Korean Traditional Housing had. Though it could be found characteristics of indoor thermal environment heated by Ondol Heating System, analyses of evaluation made by occupants of the rooms were insufficient because most of the studies had been focused on the measurement of indoor thermal factors. Thus, with an evaluation of occupants for the indoor thermal comfort and an estimation of discomfort derived from the result of vertical temperature distribution, it was studied whether the agreeable indoor range of rooms, of which was Jeonju Hanok Living Experience Center, heated by Ondol Heating System corresponded to the agreeable indoor range presented in references.

The purpose of this study was to investigate changes in the external thermal environment, following the application of evaporative cooling systems in buildings, in response to climate change. In order to verify changes in the external thermal environment, a T-test was performed on the microclimate, Thermal Comfort Index (TCI), and building surface temperature. Differences in microclimate, following the application of the evaporative cooling system in the building, were significant in terms of temperature and relative humidity. In particular, temperature decreased by more than 7% when the evaporative cooling system was applied. According to the results of the Thermal Comfort Index analysis, the Wet-Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) was below the limit of outdoor activities, indicating that outdoor activities were possible. The Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI) values were within the very strong heat stress range when the evaporative cooling system was not applied, When the system was applied, the UTCI values were within the strong heat stress range, indicating that they were lowered by one level. The building surface temperature decreased by ~10% or more when the evaporative cooling system was applied, compared to when it was not applied. Finally, the outside surface temperature of the building decreased by ~12% or more when the system was applied, compared to when it was not applied. We conclude that the energy saving effect of the building was significant.

본 연구는 창원시 도시지역 내 공원을 대상으로 UAV 영상 기반 물리적 공간 유형을 분류하고, ENVI-met 열 쾌적성 결과와의 비교를 통해 물리적 공간 유형에 따른 열 쾌적성 특성을 분석하였다. 물리적 공간 유형은 UAV 기반 NDVI, SVF 특성에 따라 4개 유형으로 분류하였다. ENVI-met 열 쾌적성 결과는 수목 밀집지역의 T_MRT가 그 외 지역보다 최대 30℃ 이상의 차이를 보였으며, 오후 시간대 중에서는 수목 밀집지역과 다른 지역의 T_MRT 차이가 16시에 19.6℃로 가장 큰 것으로 나타났다. UAV 기반 물리적 공간 유형과 시간대별 열 쾌적성 특성 분석결과 NDVI가 높고, SVF가 높은 공간 유형에 대해 UAV 활용 시 시간대별 열 쾌적성 변화 패턴과 유사한 경향을 보이는 것을 확인하였으나, 수목 및 인공 구조물 등이 밀집된 지역에 대해서는 상대적으로 UAV 기반 물리적 환경 유형과 상관관계가 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 개활지 및 식생으로 이루어진 공간 유형에 대해 UAV 영상 기반 열 쾌적성 분포 파악 가능성을 확인하였으며, 수목 인접지역이 개활지보다 열적으로 쾌적한 것으로 도출되었다. 따라서, 도시계획 단계에서 개활 공간은 잔디 및 수목 등 자연피복재질을 고려하여 조성할 필요가 있으며, 인공피복재질 활용 시 수목, 건물과의 인접성 등을 고려한 공간계획이 이루어져야 할 것으로 판단된다. 향후 지상LiDAR 및 현장 측정 기반 UAV 영상 보정을 통해 신속·정확한 도시기후 현상 규명 및 열 쾌적성을 고려한 도시계획 수립이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구는 인간의 생리적 지표 중 하나인 안면 피부온도를 활용하여 PMV 지표 값에 기반하여 조성된 쾌적/불쾌 실내 환경을 적절하게 구분할 수 있는지 그 타당성을 살펴보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 쾌적 실내 환경에 해당되는 PMV 지표 값을 기준으로 물리적 환경을 쾌적 실내 환경과 불쾌한 실내 환경으로 각각 구분하고, 구분된 환경내에서 재실자의 안면 피부온도를 측정하였다. 그 결과, PMV 지표 값으로 구분된 쾌적 실내 환경과 불쾌한 실내 환경에서의 재실자의 안면 피부온도가 서로 차이를 보이는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 안면 피부온도가 PMV 지표에 기반한 쾌적한 실내 환경 조성에 있어 활용될 수 있음을 시사한다. 그러나 쾌적한 실내 환경에 비해 불쾌한 실내 환경에서 안면 피부온도가 낮게 나타나는 결과를 통해 오히려 PMV 지표 값에 기반을 두고 조성되는 쾌적/불쾌환경이 타당하지 않을 수 있음도 시사한다.

The purpose of this study was to compare the comfort sensation depending on four different kinds of denim blue jeans: cotton, cotton/tencel, tencel, cotton/pp. The objective and subjective experiments were conducted to measure the comfort of blue jeans. To investigate the objective comfort, physical properties related to thermal insulation, moisture properties and hand were measured. For subjective comfort measurement, 5 healthy female college students were taken as subjects. The outcomes of the experiments are as follows: The higher the air permeability and bulk density of the denim, the lower the thermal insulation, the thicker the denim, the higher the thermal insulation. Tencel blending denim showed the higher bulk density, the lower air contents, and consequently the lower thermal insulation than the other denims. Tencel showed the highest moisture regain, and cotton/tencel blend showed the highest water vapor permeability. Tencel denim had relatively better flexibility, shape stability and elastic recovery than the other denims. The total hand values of the denims by KES-FB system were not significantly different. Cotton and cotton/pp denims raised the subjects body temperature after excercise more than tencel or cotton/tencel denims. Average skin temperature was found to have a correlation with micro climate temperature and micro climate humidity. The correlation coefficients were 0.749 and 0.767, respectively. However, average skin temperatures were not significantly different among the materials. Pulse rate was found to be the highest when wearing cotton/pp and the lowest in case of cotton/tencel denim. The energy was consumed in order of cotton>cotton/pp>tencel>cotton/tencel. There was no significant difference in preference before excercise, but, after the excercise, the order of preference changed as the following; cotton/tencel>tencel>cotton/pp>cotton.

The purpose of this study is to measure and analyze the indoor thermal conditions in the spring of a korean coastal passenger ship which is 590-passenger Ro-Pax type built at 1997. Especially this study has focussed on the relations between the diffuser open ratio, which can be controlled by 12 steps, and the comfort. Followings are the results of this study. (1) The supply air volume to cabins are maximum 4.3 and 2 times more than design quantity when the diffusers in cabins are open 100% and 50%, respectively. (2) Regardless of diffuser open ratio, the supply air maintains constantly high temperature and below 10% of relative humidity through the experimental days. (3) All the cabins are not satisfied with the ASHRAE comfort criterion at the condition of 100% and 50% of diffuser open ratio, because of high temperature and low relative humidity. (4) At a low diffuser open ratio, number of cabins which satisfy the ASHRAE comfort criterion are increased. (5) Humidifying and dehumidifying, and hvac control system of each cabin must be reviewed and studied at the view of passengers to service more comfort environments.

Existent researches about indoor thermal environment have been focused on to seek human's comfort in daytime. Also researches about thermal comfort during the sleeping time that is important for resting and recharging to modern people have been seldom existed. At present, as global warming phenomenon is being continued, most people are going through inconvenience by sultriness during the sleeping hours in sweltering summer night. Therefore we need another control method of an air conditioner to keep human's thermal comfort. Ambient temperature is a common factor of the environment, but analysis of its effect on human body physiology is still unknown. The effect of ambient temperature on human sleep has been increasingly studied in the last decade. This research investigated about optimal indoor temperature to maintain proper skin temperature and comfortable sleep when indoor air is cooled by an air conditioner in sweltering summer night.

Transient heat transfer characteristics in th radiant heating panel with heat diffusion fin were predicted by numerical analysis. Thermal behaviors of panel, such as temperature distributions in panel and convective and radiative heat fluxes in panel surface with advance of time, were obtained for several important parameters. The performance and thermal comfort of heating panel were studied and compared for various design conditions, such as pipe pitch, area ratio and thermal conductivity of optimal design of the new heating panels with heat diffusion fin. It was concluded that the efficient area ratio of heat diffusion fin is about 0.5, and the greater the thermal conductivity of fin is, the better the performance of panel is.
