Application of heat recovery system applying air supply and cexhaust ventilation device essential in energy management system for the optimum ventilation system utilization and energy saving. This is a key element of infrastructure technology for high-efficiency energy buildings, because it can save heating and cooling energy in winter and summer. In this paper, heat transfer efficiency was simulated using paper, plastic, and aluminum materials that was examined to compare heat exchanger performance under uniform flow conditions. We tested heat transfer efficiengy according to the shape of two of that, one is orthogonal and the other is refraction shape. Based on the simulation results, it is expected to contribute to the production of high performance heat exchanger with heat transfer performance and pressure loss.

This paper reports a thermal environmental analysis of a room in accommodated with multi-heat sources according to ventilation condition. Two case modification have been investigated to obtain the lower temperature distribution in the room. The temperature distribution of the original room were found about $25{\sim}35^{\circ}C$. As a result, the use of, three ventilating fans and two electric fans are useful for room ventilation respectively, and using two electric fan is more recommendable in side of economical efficiency.

Various odor reduction systems are being operated at pig houses to improve livestock odor issues. However, the quantitative evaluation of odor reduction efficiency is not sufficiently conducted. The analysis of factors that affect the reduction efficiency also has not been sufficiently conducted. Therefore, in this study, the reduction efficiency of representative odor reduction facilities (bio-curtain, scrubber) operated by domestic pig houses was evaluated. The odor reduction efficiency was evaluated by sampling the air before and after the odor reduction facility in 6 pig houses. Livestock odors were evaluated for complex odors, ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, and VOC. To find factors for reduction efficiency, temperature, humidity, pH of washing resolution, type of washing water, and ventilation rate was measured. As a result, it was found that the scrubber system had the highest reduction efficiency. The reduction efficiency was found to be affected by the scrubber's washing resolution, filler, operating conditions, and size. Bio-curtains may have problems such as deterioration of fan performance due to ventilation fan load, groundwater pollution, and excessive use of groundwater.

Simulation study were performed for ventilation capability effect on the smoke spread in the deeply-underground subway station(DUSS). Singeumho station(The line # 5, Depth: 46m) was modeled and were analyzed for smoke-spread speed difference between the originally-designed-ventilation-capacity and the measured-ventilation-capacity. Field test data for actual fan in DUSS was applied as a boundary condition of a simulation. The whole station was covered in this analysis and total of 4 million grids were generated for this simulation. The fire-driven flow was analyzed case by case to compare the smoke-spread effects. In order to enhance the efficiency of calculation, parallel processing by MPI was employed and large eddy simulation method in FDS code was adopted.

We characterized the efficacy of an electrostatic precipitator (ESP) air-cleaner in reducing the concentration of Serratia marcescens in an enclosed space. We used an experimental room ($4.5{\times}3{\times}2.9\;m$) in which electrostatic air-cleaners were located. Two air-cleaners enhanced the equivalent ventilation rates in the chamber by about 3.3 air changes per hour (ACH) over the 2 ACH provided by the mechanical ventilation system. Natural die-off of the organisms provided an additional equivalent of 3 ACH, so that the total ventilation rate with the ESP air-ccleaners was 8.3 ACH. We also examined whether the ESP air-cleaners altered the deposition of Serratia marcescens aerosols on the experimental room surfaces. We did not find any significant differences in the number of colony forming units recovered from surfaces with and without the air-cleaners. We installed UV lights inside the ESPs and determined if UV light, in addition to electrical fields, increased the efficacy of the ESPs. The presence of UV light inside the ESP reduced S. marcescens aerosols by approximately 2 ACH. Finally, a box model indicates that the efficiency of the air-cleaner increases for both biological and nonbiological particles at ventilation rates of 0.2-1, which are typical for residential settings.

This study proposes a Passive Solar Chamber System (PSCS) as a passive method for reduction of building energy consumption. Through numerical analysis, the study quantitatively analyzes system performance and aims to provide foundational data for system design. For this purpose, the study configures different system operation modes seasonally and also computes thermal and ventilation performance of the system in accordance with design factors(solar radiation, air channel height and distance). System and ventilation efficiency increases along with increase in solar radiation and air channel distance; however, as the air channel height increases, the efficiencies showed a tendency to decrease. Upon installation of PSCS, an average of $98.23W/m^2$ of heat flux was introduced in the daytime for the month of January in comparison to walls with no PSCS installed. For the month of August, natural ventilation of $56.68m^3/h$ was shown to be supplied to the room.

Tall buildings are frequently decried as unsustainable due to their excessive energy usage. Early skyscrapers used natural light and ventilation to facilitate human comfort and applied organic materials such as stone, glass, wood, concrete, and terra cotta for cladding and finishes. With the advent of fluorescent lighting, modern heating, ventilation, air-conditioning (HVAC) systems, and thermally sealed curtain walls, tall office buildings no longer had to rely on natural light and ventilation to provide comfort. Energy efficiency was not a significant factor when the operational costs of buildings were relatively inexpensive. However, today's skyscrapers must become more energy-efficient and sustainable due to energy crises and climate change. This paper highlights vital energy-efficient design principles and demonstrates with illustrative case studies how they are applied to tall buildings in various parts of the world. It shows how sustainable environmental systems do not act alone but are integrated with advanced curtain wall systems, sky gardens, and atria, among others, to regulate and sustain thermal comfort and conserve energy.

An optimization procedure for the design of a ventilation axial-flow fan is presented in this paper. Flow analyses of the preliminary fan are performed by solving three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations via a finite-volume solver with the shear-stress transport turbulence model as a turbulence closure. Three variables, the hub-to-tip ratio and the stagger angles at the mid and tip spans, are selected for the optimization. The Latin-hypercube sampling method as a design-of-experiments technique is used to generate twenty-five design points within the design space. and the weighted average surrogate models, WTA1, WTA2, and WTA3, are applied for find optimal designs. The results show that the efficiency is considerably enhanced.

The experiment applied Positive Pressure Ventilation to rapidly exhaust heat and smoke inside the construction in the fire was done. Changes of heat discharge and smoke density were measured, with the various blowing condition like a fan tilting angle to find the effect of the parameter. Experimental apparatus were with PPV and water mist system for better efficiency, and investigate the effect of heat discharge and smoke removal. In the experiment, flame temperature has decreased when PPV was applied. Smoke density, generated from fire also decreased dramatically and the efficiency showed the highest rate at $0^{\circ}$ tilting angle. In addition, combination of PPV and water mist system highly improved the efficiency of evacuation on heat and smoke density, clearly was influenced by the tilting angle.
