Abstract

In recent years the importance of the preservation of cultural artifacts like ancient tombs has been widely accepted domestically and internationally with increasing value of cultural artifacts. However not much technical attention has been paid for the facilities and systems to preserve these artifacts. As a part of the present study, the temperature and relative humidity inside a selected artifact, Shinkwan-ri tomb, have been monitored for a year round to improve the understanding of the indoor thermal environment. In this study, using the Computational Fluid Dynamics calculated the velocity and temperature distribution and offered basic data which are necessary for the best fitted design of tomb air-conditioning device. Through the result of this study, the generation of temperature variation was identified by natural convection. It enables us to get the possibility of humidity variation
