The results of numerical simulation on the performance of a solar chimney system in building are described. The inside surface temperature of four walls within the solar chimney arc calculated with solar radiation and outdoor temperature in summer. The air within the solar chimney is heated by conduction, convection and radiation. Air temperature distribution from the bottom to the top and outlet air temperature can be obtained by solving energy balance equation. Since the buoyance or stack effect is affected by temperature difference between the bottom and the top within the solar chimney. It is evaluated using inlet and outlet temperatures. It is expected that natural ventilation by the solar chimney of witch the height is 7.8m and the cross sectional area is $4.93m^2$ can provide about $6400m^3/h$ on sunny day.

This study was conducted to collect basic data about the effects of ventilation types on the interior environment of the enclosed farrowing-nursery pig house in Anseong, Icheon and Jeungpyong. Surveyed ventilation types in the enclosed farrowing-nursery pig house are classified in to 4 types. In V1 type, air enters through a planar slot inlet placed on the juncture of the entering wall and exit through the chimney fan outlet; in V2 type, air enters through a perforated ceiling inlet and exits chimney fan outlet(V2); in V3 type, air enters through a circular duct inlet and exit chimney fan outlet(V3); in V4 type, enters through a circular duct inlet and exits side wall exhaust fan outlet(V4). Temperature, relative humidity, air velocity and ammonia concentration($NH_3$) were measured in the interior of swine building in the summer. Interior temperature was not remarkably different in all ventilation types in this study. However, temperature of the V4 was somewhat lower than that of the other types. Air velocity of the V4 was higher and $NH_3$ concentration of the V4 was lower than those of other ventilation types. It is suggested that the V4 ventilation type be applicable in the enclosed farrowing-nursery pig house in Korea.

The HANARO, a multi-purpose research reactor of 30 MWth, open-tank-in-pool type, has been under normal operation since its initial criticality in February, 1995. The HANARO is composed of inlet plenum, grid plate, core channel with flow tubes and chimney. The reactor core channel is located at about twelve meters (12 m) depth of the reactor pool and cooled by the upward flow that the coolant enters the lower inlet of the plenum,. rises up through the grid plate and the core channel and comes out from the outlet of chimney. A guide tube is extended from the reactor core to the top of the reactor chimney for easily un/loading a target under the reactor normal operation. But active coolant through the core can be quickly raised up to the top of the chimney through the guide tube by a jet flow. This paper describes an analytical analysis that is the study of the flow behavior through the guide tube under reactor normal operation and unloading the target. As results, it was conformed through the analysis results that the guide jet is suppressed under the top of the chimney after modifying the orifice diameter of 37.5 mm to 31 mm.

The study was carried out to iind out the suitable ventilation system of the broiler house in winter season in Korea. Ammonia (NH$_3$-N) gas concentration (4.2ppm) of the system of pipe air inlet-forced chimney outlet was lower than that of the system of side wall inlet. The growth performance of broilers in the house equiped with pipe air inlet-chimney exhaust was higher than that of other ventilation systmes in which the average daily gain, feed efficiency and heat cost per head in the system of pipe air inlet-forced chimney excretion were 45.6g, 1.71 and 35.4 won per head, respectively. When the lengths of pipe air inlets were compared, the wind speed from the 4 meter-inlet was highest. The temperature of the broiler house equipped with the pipe air inlet system was higher (5.9 ∼ 7.7$^{\circ}C$) than that of the curtains in side wall Inlet system, in which the pipe air inlet system expects the lower heat cost.

The HANARO is composed of inlet plenum, grid plate, core channel with flow tubes and chimney. The reactor core channel is located at about twelve m (12 m) depth of the reactor pool and cold by the upward flow that the coolant enters the lower inlet of the plenum, rises up through the grid plate and the core channel and exit through the outlet of chimney. A guide tube is extended from the reactor core to the top of the reactor chimney for easily un/loading a target under the reactor normal operation. But active coolant through the core can be Quickly raised up to the top of the chimney through the guide tube by jet flow. This paper is described an analytical analysis to study the flow behavior through the guide tube under reactor normal operation and unloading the target. As results, it was conformed through the analysis results that the flow rate, about fourteen kilogram per second (14 kg/s) suppressed the guide tube jet and met the design cooling flow rate in a circular flow tube, and that the fission moly target cooling flow rate met the minimum flow rate to cool the target.

This study was conducted to improve a ventilation system on the enclosed farrowing-nursery pig house in Korean swine facilities. This survey ventilation system types four major structures. The first structure has planer slot inlet, where air comes in, and these are placed outside the wall under the eave. Then the air from the pig house flows out through the chimney outlet operated by an exhaust fan(V1). The second structure has an air input through the perforated ceiling inlet, then the air from the pig house flows out through the chimney outlet operated by an exhaust fan(V2). Through the circular duct inlet placed inside the juncture of the entry wall, air also comes in(third structure). Then, air from the pig house flows out through the chimney outlet operated by an exhaust fan(V3), Similarly, air comes in through the circular duct inlet placed inside the juncture of the entry wall, but air from the pig house flows out through the side wall by an exhaust fan(V4). Temperature, relative humidity, air velocity and ammonia concentration(NH$_3$) were measured in the interior farrowing-nursery pig house during winter. The results were as follows; Interior temperature at the pig house was not remarkably different in all ventilation systems. The V4 system had low area air velocity, and this was better than other systems. It also had a lower ammonia concentration than other systems. V3 and V4 systems had stable airflow patterns, better than other systems. Therefore, it is suggested that the V3 and V4 ventilation system be applied in the enclosed farrowing-nursery pig house in winter.

An experiment was conducted to establish comparison of ventilation efficiency in an enclosed and conventional growing-finishing pig house. The experimental pigs were in winter and summer. The main results of the experiment are as follows : Then the air from planar slot inlet the pig house flow out through the sidewall outlet operated by exhaust fan(Gl). The second structure has an air input through the circular duct inlet are plated side the juncture of the entering wall and the air into the pig house flow out through the chimney and pit outlet are operated by exhaust fan(G2). Through the air into relay fan the pig house flow out through the curtains in sidewall(G3). Similarly, air comes in through the circular duct inlet are placed the air into the pig house flow out through the curtains in sidewall (G4). Air flow rate on the floor level which is the low part of pen and the living area of pigs in the G2 and G4 system during winter was measured at 0.2 to 0.3 m/s at the 0.5 to 0.6 m/s at the maximum ventilation efficiency. As for the results of detrimental gas(ammonia) concentration ratio analysis, while G2 and G4 system sustained of summer 13.3 $\~$ 16.6 ppm, winter 14.0 $\~$ 14.6 ppm level, Gl and G3 system sustained of summer 14.6 $\~$ 20.3 ppm, winter 20.3 $\~$ 25.0 ppm, and the latter one is lower than that of the G1 and G3 system.
