The thermal performance of cooling towers is affected mainly by the velocity, temperature and humidity of the entering air, In this paper, the effects of these variables are experimentally investigated for both counter-flow and cross-flow cooling towers. The cooling performance is reduced by up to 50% as the relative humidity of the entering air is increased from 40% to 80%. The higher air velocity and lower coolant flow show better cooling performance. The coolant loss rates in the present experimental conditions are in the range of 0.4 to 1.7%

송풍식건조에 의한 어육건조중의 변색에 미치는 공기의 상대습도의 영향을 검토한 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. $40^{\circ}C,\;55^{\circ}C$ 및 $70^{\circ}C$에서의 어육건조중 어육변색의 주된 원인은 지방산화였다. 지방함량이 높은 어육일수록 지방산화에 의한 변색이 심하였다. $40^{\circ}C$와 $55^{\circ}C$에서의 건조중에는 공기의 상대습도가 $30\%$ 정도일 때 지방산화가 가장 늦었으며, 상대습도가 $30\%$ 보다 낮아지거나 높아질수록 지방산화가 촉진되었다. $70^{\circ}C$에서의 건조중에는 상대습도의 지방산화에 대한 뚜렷한 영향이 확인되지 않았으며, 고온에서는 지방산화가 조조온도에 민감한 듯 하였다. Maillard반응에 의한 갈변은 건조중의 변색에는 큰 영향을 미치지 않았고, 상대습도 $10\%{\sim}50\%$의 범위에서는 상대습도가 높을수록 반응속도가 빨랐다.

표고버섯의 건조공정에 큰 영향을 미치는 열풍의 온도, 습도 및 수분감량 등의 요인을 제어할 수 있는 마이크로 컴퓨터 제어 시스템을 이용하여 버섯류의 건조특성과 기작을 구명하고, 건조제품의 이화학적 특성을 측정하였다. 표고버섯의 열풍건조중 수분이동은 Page Model을 따랐으며, $50^{\circ}C$의 건조온도와 20% 상대습도의 건조조건에서 건조시의 관계식은 $M-M_c/M_0-M_c\;=\;\exp\;(-0.275t^{1.154})$였다. 건조된 표고버섯의 아미노산 함량은 상대습도를 증가시킴에 따라서 증가하였다. 그리고 색도 및 갈변도는 건조온도와 상대습도가 증가할수록 증가하였으며, 복원률은 건조온도와 상대습도가 낮을수록 증가하였다.

In this study, we analyzed the LPG and LNG sensitivity measurement and voltage variation using catalytic type gas sensor characteristics in catalytic combustion type gas detecter sensors. gas detector shall operate as intended when exposed for 24 hours to air having a relative humidity of 0~85 percent at a temperature of $20[{\mu}m]$ and humidity of 45 percent at a temperature of $-10{\sim}40[^{\circ}C]$ the gas detecter sensors are to be subjected to operation for 210 days in an area that has been detemined to be equivalent to a typical residential atmosphere with an air velocity of 50 [cm/sec]. The source of energy for a gas detector sensors employing a supplementary basic circuit is energized from a separate source of supply direct applied voltage 2.1[V], 2.2[V], 2.3[V]. As a result, it was confirmed that the relative humidity and temperature by regression each analysis, compared to the LPG characteristic graph and methane characteristics graph by a relative humidity of 0 ~ 85 [%] at a temperature range of $-10{\sim}40[^{\circ}C]$ show a similar linear pattern on the whore.

A study on the combustion and exhaust emissions characteristics of diesel engine with various suction air humidity is performed experimentally. In this paper, suction air humidity is changed from RH 50% to RH 90%, the experiments are performed at engine speed 1800rpm, and main measured parameters are cylinder pressure, fuel consumption rate, CO, HC, NOx and Soot emissions etc. Increase of suction air humidity from RH 50% to RH 90% does not effect specific fuel consumption, decreases maximum pressure in cylinder, ratio of maximum pressure rise and net heat release, and delays ignition timing. Also, that increases CO and HC emissions, decreases NOx emissions, but does not constant in changing tendency on emission.

This study was conducted to investigate the relation between ozone concentration and the affecting factors in Seosan City of Korea from Jan. 2002 to Dec. 2002. We analyzed the air pollutants such as NO$_2$, PM$_{10} $,SO$_2$, CO and the meteorological factors including solar radiation, air temperature, wind speed and relative humidity. The analytical data were taken statistics by SPSS method. The results were as follows: The seasonal average concentration of ozone were detected 35.0 ppb in Spring, 25.4 ppb in Summer, 23.5 ppb in Autumn and 21.4 ppb in Winter. So the difference of concentrations showed significantly in statistics. The hourly ozone concentration in a day was increased at 7-9 AM, peaked at 3-4 PM. The correlation coefficients was negative to ozone concentration and NO$_2$, SO$_2$, CO, relative humidity, but positive to solar radiation, air temperature, wind speed. With stepwise multiple regression analysis on the 8 factors such as NO$ _2$, PMSO$_{10}$,SO$_2$, CO, solar radiation, air temperature, wind speed and relative humidity, the seasonal primary factors were air temperature in spring, relative humidity in summer and solar radiation in autumn and winter. The above results suggest that ozone is the secondary pollutant by photochemical reaction as the concentration of ozone was increased with the raise of solar radiation.

Objectives: This study was performed to examine bioaerosols in indoor air in public restrooms, as well as to assess the effects of air temperature and relative humidity on bioaerosol levels. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was performed in ten male and ten female restrooms. An air sampler (Anderson type) was used for sampling total suspended bacteria (TSB), Gram-negative bacteria (GNB), Gram-positive bacteria (GPB), opportunistic bacteria (OP), Staphylococcus spp., and total suspended fungi (TSF). Results: The levels of TSB were $10-10^2CFU/m^3$ and TSF $10-10^2CFU/m^3$, respectively. The GNB level was $0-10CFU/m^3$, and GPB and OP levels were $10-10^2CFU/m^3$. Staphylococcus aureus and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) were detected in 90% of the restrooms. The GPB level was higher in the female restrooms than in the male restrooms (p < 0.05). TSB, GNB, and TSF showed higher levels in restrooms in buildings over 30 years old (p < 0.01). The main effect of air temperature or relative humidity and interaction effect of the two factors on the TSB level were significant (p < 0.05), while the effect of relative humidity on the TSF level was significant (p < 0.001). Conclusions: These results indicate that there is a wide variation in the bioaerosol levels among different restrooms. The observed differences in bioaerosol levels reflect different building histories. The effects of air temperature and/or relative humidity reveal that bioaerosol levels may vary according to season or time of day. Future research is needed to further characterize the relation between the bioaerosol levels and surface contamination in restrooms.

포그냉방시스템의 냉방효과는 온실 내부의 상대습도, 공기유동과 밀접한 관계가 있다. 냉방설계용 VETH선도에서 냉발효율은 환기회수의 증가와 그에 상응하는 분무수량의 증가로 인하여 개선될 수 있다. 시간제어방식을 이용한 무차광 실험온실에서 분당 환기회수가 평균 0.77회, 분무수량이 2,009g 일 때 온실 내부의 기온이 31$^{\circ}C$로 외부기온과 거의 같게 나타났으며, 이 때의 증발효율은 82%이다. 분당 환기회수가 평균 0.26회, 분무수량이 1.256g인 경우 무냉방 온실의 기온과 비슷한 37.1$^{\circ}C$였다. 차광율 70%인 실험온실의 분당 환기환수가 평균 2.59회, 분무수량이 2,009g 일 때, 내부의 상대습도는 증가하나 기온은 하강하지 못했다. 그러나 분당 환기회수가 평균 2.33회, 분무수량이 2,009g인 경우 내부의 기온이 31.4$^{\circ}C$로 이 때 온실의 유입구 풍속은 최고 1.9m.s$^{-1}$였다. 시간제어의 경우 일정간격으로 일정한 수량을 분무하기 때문에 분무입자가 모두 증발하지 못하고 온실 내부에 누적되어 온실 내부의 상대습도를 증가시켜 냉방효율을 감소 시키는 원인이 되고 차광망이 온실내부의 공기흐름을 차단하여 증발효율을 감소시키는 것으로 나타났다. 포그냉방시스템의 냉방효율을 높이기 위해서는 온실 내부의 상대습도에 의한 제어방식과 내부 공기의 순환에 대한 연구가 필요하다.

To estimate the cooling load for the following day, outdoor temperature and humidity are needed in hourly base. But the meteorological administration forecasts only maximum and minimum temperature. New methodology is proposed for predicting hourly outdoor temperature and humidity by using the forecasted maximum and minimum temperature. The correlations for normalized outdoor temperature and specific humidity has been derived from the weather data for five years from 2001 to 2005 at Seoul, Daejeon and Pusan. The correlations for normalized temperature are independent of date, while the correlations for specific humidity are linearly dependent on date. The predicted results show fairly good agreement with the measured data. The prediction program is also developed for hourly outdoor dry bulb temperature, specific humidity, dew point, relative humidity, enthalpy and specific volume.

This study was conducted to find performance evaluation method for automobile air conditioner. Experimental facilities were constructed to simulate wide range of operating condition for the automobile air conditioner. Compressor speed was controled by variable speed electric motor and the power was measured through torque transducer and tachometer was used to measure compressor speed. Parametric studies were conducted in this study, to figure out effect of environment variables on the performance of the automobile air conditioner. The environmental variables are inlet air temperature, relative humidity and air flow rate for the evaporator and inlet air temperature and air flow rate for the condenser. Compressor speed is also changed. The results of this study shows that air flow rate of the evaporator is more sensitive to the performance of the automobile air conditioner than the other variables. However relative humidity of the inlet air of the evaporator strongly affects capacity rather that COP.
