Purpose. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of changes in tear break-up time, accommodative response amount, and accommodative microwave on the eyes due to changes in humidity. Methods. A total of 48 adult men and women in their 20s (21.1±1.56 years old) were surveyed on dry eye questionnaires (OSID questionnaires), tear destruction time was measured by humidity (40%, 60%, 80%), and controlled reactions and controlled fine waves were measured through tactile tests. Result. As a result of the OSID questionnaire, there were 10 normal patients, 8 mild dry eyes, 1 moderate dry eye, and 5 severe dry eyes. The initial tear film destruction time was 7.34±4.67 seconds at 40% humidity, 8.99±4.75 seconds at 60% humidity, 10.26±4.52 seconds at 80% humidity, and the average tear film destruction time was 9.51±4.07 seconds at 40% humidity, 10.99±3.82 seconds at 60% humidity, and 12.05±3.42 seconds at 80% humidity. The accommodative response was -0.41~1.79D at 40% humidity, -0.34~1.79D at 60% humidity, and -0.30~2.01D at 80% humidity. The accommodative microwave was measured as 56.39~63.43dB when it was 40%, 56.41~62.64dB when it was 60%, and 55.96 ~61.13dB when it was 80%. Conclusion. As the humidity (40~80%) increased, the tear break-up time increased, and as the accommodative stimulus amount increased, the accommodative response amount increased. It was found that the accommodative microwave according to the amount of accommodative stimulation increased, and as the humidity increased, the accommodative microwave decreased.

Objectives: This study was conducted to determine the impact of aquariums on indoor air quality for improving humidity and reducing indoor air pollutants. Methods: An air-conditioning chamber was used to determine humidity increase by aquarium volume at three different temperatures ($20^{\circ}C$, $25^{\circ}C$, $30^{\circ}C$). Humidity increase was measured for 21 hours ($20^{\circ}C$) and 12 hours ($25^{\circ}C$, $30^{\circ}C$) while placing five different volume of aquarium in the chamber. Concentrations of several volatile organic compounds and formaldehyde were measured after a known amount was injected into the chamber with and without an aquarium. Results: The humidity inside the chamber increased when the aquarium was inside the chamber. Humidity change was similar at $20^{\circ}C$, $25^{\circ}C$, and $30^{\circ}C$, but slightly higher at higher temperatures. The bigger the aquarium volume, the higher was the humidity increase that occurred. Humidity increase by the aquarium was sufficient to increase indoor humidity in winter and negligible in summer. Concentrations of some water-soluble indoor air pollutants and formaldehyde were decreased with the aquarium inside the chamber. Conclusions: An aquarium could increase indoor humidity in winter, while the humidity increase is negligible in summer. An aquarium could decrease some water-soluble indoor air pollutants, including formaldehyde. This result implies that an aquarium may have positive effects on indoor environmental quality.

이 연구에서는 지난 58년(1954~2011년) 동안의 관측 자료를 보유한 14개 기상관측소의 일평균 상대습도, 일평균 수증기압을 분석하여 도시 규모별 습도 변화를 파악하였다. 연평균 상대습도는 분석기간 동안 지속적으로 감소하는 경향이며, 도시에서 비도시보다 감소하는 경향이 뚜렷하다. 계절별로는 봄철과 겨울철에 상대습도가 감소하는 경향이 뚜렷하고, 여름철에는 변화율이 작다. 연평균 수증기압은 변화 경향이 뚜렷하지 않고, 도시 규모에 의한 변화율 차이가 명확하지 않다. 상대습도와 평균기온 사이에는 음의 관계가 있으며, 도시 규모에 따른 상대습도 차이가 통계적으로 유의하였다. 상대습도와 수증기압 사이에는 양의 관계가 있지만, 도시 규모에 따른 수증기압의 차이가 뚜렷하지 않다. 한국에서 상대습도가 감소하는 경향은 도시화에 의한 기온상승 경향과 상당히 일치하지만, 수증기압의 변화는 뚜렷하지 않다.

조사 대상인 유물 진열장은 온도 변화에 대응한 조온기능이 미약한 반면 조습 능력이 비교적 높았다. 유물 진열장 내부의 연평균 온 습도는 $18.8^{\circ}C$, 60.3% 로 전시실에 비해 온도는 낮고 습도는 높은 분포를 나타냈다. 또한 온도는 계절변화에 따라 변동률이 높은 반면 습도는 계절별 평균값이 59~61%로 일정하게 유지되었다. 여름철에는 전시실과 마찬가지로 고온고습 분포를 나타냈고 공조기 가동에 따른 온도의 하강은 습도를 상승시켰으며. 겨울철에는 공조기 가동에 따라 전시실과 유물 진열장 간 온 습도의 차이가 커져 수분 문제가 제기되었다. 유물 진열장 내부 온 습도에 대한 PI는 18.0%로 전시물 보존을 위한 적정 온 습도 조성률이 매우 저조하였다. 특히 여름철과 겨울철은 PI가 1% 미만으로 진열장 내 철저한 온습도 관리가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

This paper presents an integrated multifunctional sensor based on MEMS technology, which can be used or embedded in mobile devices for environmental monitoring. An absolute pressure sensor, a temperature sensor and a humidity sensor are integrated in one silicon chip of which the size is $5mm\times5mm$. The pressure sensor uses a bulk-micromachined diaphragm structure with the piezoresistors. For temperature sensing, a silicon temperature sensor based on the spreading-resistance principle is designed and fabricated. The humidity sensor is a capacitive humidity sensor which has the polyimide film and interdigitated capacitance electrodes. The different piezoresistive orientation is used for the pressure and temperature sensor to avoid the interference between sensors. Each sensor shows good sensor characteristics except for the humidity sensor. However, the linearity and hysteresis of the humidity sensor can be improved by selecting the proper polymer materials and structures.

$Ca_{10}(PO_{4})_{6}(OH)_{2}$ 감습소자를 고상반응법을 이용하여 제조하고, 그의 감습특성을 조사하였다. 상대습도가 증가함에 따라 임피던스는 감소하며 $30{\sim}90\;%$의 습도영역에서 임피던스의 변화가 약 $10^{2}\;{\Omega}$ 정도로 우수한 감도를 보임을 알 수 있다. 또한 감습도는 주위 온도변화와 습기에의 장시간 노출에 안정된 특성을 나타내었다. 시편의 열처리에서도 감도의 변화가 없으며, 흡습 및 탈습에 따른 히스테리시스 특성은 거의 나타나지 않았다.

New polyelectrolytes derived from poly(amide-sulfone)s and 1,5-dibromopentane were simultaneously fabricated on the electrode by the crosslinking reaction. The substrate was pretreated with a bromoalkyl-containing, silane-coupling agent to anchor the humidity-sensitive membrane to the substrate through the covalent bond. When the resistance dependence on the relative humidity of the crosslinked poly(amide-sulfone)s was measured, the resistance varied by three orders of magnitude between 20%RH and 90%RH, which was the required RH range for a humidity sensor operating at ambient humidity. Their water durability, long-term stabilities under various environments, hysteresis and response and recovery times were measured and evaluated as a humidity-sensing membrane.

$CaTiO_3$ thin films using silk screen printing technology were fabricated and their humidity sensitive characteristics have been investigated. The specimens were sintered at $1000^{\circ}C$, $1050^{\circ}C$, $1100^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour and the best humidity sensitivity was shown in the specimens sintered at $1000^{\circ}C$. The humidity sensitivity decreased with increasing measuring frequencies and was stable at different abient temperatures. Hysteresis of impedance variation with increasing and decreasing relative humidity were negligible.

The properties of paper are very susceptible to moisture content originated from relative humidity. This propensity of PVA impregnated paper was investigated in this study. Especially the hardening effect of borax treatment after PVA impregnation on the response of paper sample to the relative humidity was evaluated. When the moisture content was increased with the relative humidity, tensile stretch and tear resistance were increased while tensile strength and stiffness were decreased. A great increase in folding endurance of PVA impregnated paper sample was found at the higher relative humidity. The borax treatment could reduce the response of PVA impregated paper to the relative humidity.
