In this study, three different types of mechanical ventilation systems are compared based on their ventilation characteristics: tracer gas concentration decay characteristics, and ventilation effectiveness by calculating actual ventilation air flow rate. The experiments are performed by using a step-down method for measuring tracer gas. $CO_{2}$ gas, concentration in the model chamber. Application of a mixing factor, k, was used and measured values ranged from 0.68 to 0.77. The Type 2 ventilation system was found to have the highest ventilation effectiveness rather than the Types 1 and 3.

본 연구는 실내 쾌적성 제어를 위하여 룸 에어컨의 환기성능을 분석한다. 실험장치는 환경공조챔버, 룸 에어컨, 추적가스 측정시스템, 급기팬과 제어기로 구성된다. 환기성능은 ASTM Standard E741-83 기준에 근거하여 환경공조챔버 내 CO2 추적가스기법을 사용한 체강법에 의해 재실자와 급기 환기량에 따라 평가된다. 급기 환기량 증가에 따라 환기성능이 증가함을 파악하였으며 재실자가 없는 경우 CO2 가스는 빠르게 감소하며 이때의 환기성능은 55%까지 증가한다. 그리고 1명의 재실자가 있는 경우 1시간 경과후 급기량 570 lpm에서 환기성능은 자연감쇠와 비교하여 25%까지 증가한다. 실험 데이터를 사용하여 환경공조챔버 내 룸 에어컨의 환기성능 모델링을 도출하였다.

As a series of studies about natural ventilation driven by wind in basement parking lots of apartment, the influence of opening size and surrounding buildings on ventilation rate was analyzed. Natural ventilation in underground parking lots almost rely on wind than temperature difference. To investigate natural ventilation driven by wind, wind tunnel tests by using scale model and tracer gas method were conducted. $CO_2$-gas concentration was measured, natural ventilation rates were calculated. The experimental results showed that the natural ventilation rate is more reliable to wind direction and surrounding building than opening size and distance between buildings. It was verified that surrounding buildings play a principal role in increasing air flow rate by accelerating wind speed, and growing turbulence intensity. And it showed that ventilation performance is able to be increased by oblique wind to entrance ramp than head on wind in underground parking lots with surrounding buildings.

The ventilation effectiveness is evaluated as a function of air exchange rate and supply / extract locations in a simplified model chamber using a tracer gas technique of CO$_2$ gas injected into a supply duct. Ventilation systems consist of supply and extract fans, a CO$_2$gas generator, a CO$_2$gas analyzer and a test chamber. The ventilation effectiveness is evaluated using a step-down method based on ASTM Standard E741-83. The room mean age of the model chamber is decreased with increasing air exchange rate fanged from 6to 10 air changes per hour. The ventilation effectiveness of the mechanical inlet/natural extract system is better than that of the mechanical extract system.

Effects of the ambient air temperature and the opening position on the pattern of the clothing ventilation of a thermal manikin wearing an impermeable blouse were investigated by the trace gas method. Under an isothermal condition, the ventilation was governed by diffusion, and the ventilation rate through the wrist-openings was greatly affected by the distance from the openings. Under non-isothermal conditions, however, the ventilation was accelerated by the convection driven by the temperature gradient between the clothing microclimate and the surrounding air; the greater the temperature gradient, the greater the ventilation. Even though it was certainly affected by the ambient air temperature, the ventilation rate was more significantly influenced by the position of openings. The ventilation patterns at the arm and the body were distinctive.

In this study, a tracer gas technique was used to measure ventilation effectiveness in a thermal environmental chamber simulating an under-floor air conditioning system. A tracer gas of $SF_6$ was injected in a supply duct using step-up and step-down methods. Local mean ages and room mean ages were calculated from the measured concentrations under isothermal and cooling conditions with and without diffusers. Ventilation effectiveness is found to be higher in cooling ventilation operations than in isothermal operations. Results also show that ventilation effectiveness is not significantly affected by a diffuser.

The ventilation efficiency of apartment housing bathroom has been measured by the flexible's diameter, length, and installation format to the exhaust In. The gas density attenuation method of Tracer Gas Method has been specifically utilized for this measurement. Full size mock-up of apartment housing bathroom, which was approximately $100 m^2$ in size, has been established for the ventilation emciency measurement. In addition, the ventilation efficiency has been studied by the possibility of air-supply In. The diameters of flexible are 100 mm, 125 mm, and 150mm. It also have the length of 1.0m, and 1.5 m. The installation formats are I shape, L shape, and S shape. As a result of this measurement, the flexible which has the highest ventilation efficiency was the one has bigger diameter, short in length, and I shape installation format.

A tracer gas technique based on ASTM Standard E741-83 was used to measure ventilation performances in a model chamber ($0.84m{\times}0.68m{\times}0.7m$) with an exhaust fan and a supply fan. Experiments were performed for the ventilation effectiveness on three types of mechanical ventilation systems. For all cases. higher ventilation effectiveness was found in the type to ventilation system due to shorter residual time of air compared to type 1 and type 3.

지하공간에서 천연가스가 고압으로 분출될 때, 이에 응하여 작동되는 환기시스템이 전체 지하공간 내 유동에 미치는 영향은 매우 크며 이에 대한 적정한 선계는 안전성 확보측면에서 매우 중요한 일이다. 본 연구에서는 천연가스 분출 비상시의 유동을 전산해석을 통하여 반밀폐공간 내 천연가스의 농도분포 및 유동특성을 규명함으로써, 내부유동을 가시화하고 상부 환기팬 유$\cdot$무에 따른 환기효율을 비교함으로써 환기시스템의 개선사항 및 설계 방안을 제시하였다.

This study describes to analyze variation of carbon dioxide gas concentration by experimental and theoretical method according to the using patterns of ventilation system in a model classroom. Concentration of $CO_2$ gas varied by the occupancy and the ventilation systems are operating or not. More than 850 CMH ventilation system can maintain $CO_2$ gas concentration lower than 1,000 ppm along the class time and can be adopted the government guideline. Theoretical modeling of the concentration was performed at well-mixed ideal condition. Delays of concentration decay were shown at each case compared to actual.
