The purpose of this study is to find out the present thermal environment of the Korean livingroom in comparison with the Japan's. Thermal environment of the livingroom with radiant floor heating system in Korea and Japan is analysed. The surveys and measurements are took place in two detached houses and two apartments in Seoul, Korea and two apartments in Tokyo, Japan for a 48-hour period at the beginning of March, 2003. The result of this study shows that the thermal environment of the livingroom in Korean houses, especially in the apartments is warmer and stabler than the Japan's. However, despite of its high temperature, Koreans have a tendency to rise their room temperature creating excess.

In this study, the thermal environment characteristics of On-Off control and thermal difference proportional control method in floor radiant heating system were researched by computer simulation. For the analysis of unsteady heat transfer phenomena in household, the method of using electrical equivalent R-C circuit is applied, and radiation heat transfer between panel, ceiling and walls in household is calculated by enclosure analysis method. The parametric study on two control methods, conventional on-off control and temperature error based time control(T.E.B.T.C.) method, are performed to compare thermal heating control performances, respectively.

In this paper, we compared the thermal environment in the livingroom with panel heating system of Korea and Japan. The houses are two apartments and two single houses in Korea, and two apartments in Japan. The outdoor temperatures, indoor air temperatures, surface temperatures on floor and humidities were measured. The survey to the residents and recording of operation were also collected. The results were as follows.1. The Korean houses are warmer and drier(approximately 23$^{\circ}$C, 38%) than those of Japan.(approximately 20$^{\circ}$C, 57%). And indoor temperaures of Korean apartment are stabie. 2.The residents in Japan put on and off the switches of the heating system frequently.

A predictive pulse control strategy as a means of improving the energy efficiency of radiant floor heating systems is explored. Experiments at the apartment with floor heating system are conducted to assess and compare the energy performance of the predictive pulse control strategy with an existing conventional control strategy. The Results showed that new suggested PPCM( Predictive Pulse Control Method) was available to decrease the gap of $1{\sim}1.5^{\circ}C$ between maximum and minimum indoor temperature of each rooms. Therefore PPCM method was favor to radiant floor heating system which have a delay time of 10-20 minutes for heat transfer by floor layers.

The control characteristics for radiant panel heating system with automatic thermostatic valves were researched by computer simulation and experiment. The unsteady energy analysis using equivalent R-C circuit method and radiation heat transfer analysis of enclosure analysis method with simple structured rooms was performed. The results of flow rate changes of the simulation study are good fit with the ones of experimental one.

To analyze and evaluate the performance of developing air to water multi heat pump, the heat pump was installed and tested at low energy house in Daejeon, korea. Heating capacity of heat pump is 16.5KW and cooling capacity is 14.0KW. Space heating/cooling, floor heating and hot water is available. The results performance evaluation of heat pump in lab test showed that the coefficient of performance (cop) was 3.75, and heating capacity was 16.0KW in ambient temperature $7^{\circ}C$. Also at ambient temperature $-15^{\circ}C$, the COP was 1.69. At a low energy house, floor heating is controled by a floor heating water temperature and a room temperature. The COP of heat pump is decreased with frequent on/off operation for controlling of floor heating water temperature.

In this research, the effect of a heating system, which is powered by direct solar energy accumulated in phase change material (PCM) as heat storage material installed on the floor surface, on the cooling load was studied. Cooling load of a test building designed for this research was measured with fan coil unit and factors affecting it were also estimated. Experiments were performed with and without PCM installed on the building floor to understand the effect of the PCM on the cooling load. Additionally, to confirm the experiments results, the prediction calculation formula by average outside temperature and integrated solar radiation was composed using multivariate regression model. The results suggested that the heating system with PCM on the floor surface has the potential to shift electric power peak by radiating heat, stored during the daytime in it, at night, not increasing the total cooling load much.

The research analyzes the arrangement of boiler and hot water header, the method of radiator pipe setting, hot water supply control, hourly heating situation of each room for underfloor radiant heating systems in Korea and suggests an alternative to improve to efficient heating method. One of the best options for install position of hot water distributor is under kitchen sink which is center point of all rooms, according to previous research of the energy saving strategies. When the radiator pipes are arranged to each individual room instead of bedrooms through livingroom and kitchen, it has energy saving effects. For rooms without occupancy according to a time period, hot water supply method should be intermittent heating rather than continuous heating. For this intermittent heating method, individual control of hot water supply is more practical, and it can lead to massive energy savings. The intermittent heating system has time-lag, so it is more effective in energy saving with mild and comfort condition if the spaces are preheated by automatic control equipment prior to required time.

온돌의 효시인 화덕은 바닥에 자갈을 깔고 그 위에 진흙을 덮었으며, 주위에 큰돌을 놓아 불을 피워 돌과 흙에 열을 저장하여 이용하였으며, 이는 열저장 측면에서 주시할만한 난방법이었다. 현재의 한국식 주거용 난방시설은 연탄, 석유 및 가스 보일러를 이용한 온수순환온돌로서 전통온돌에서 사용한 돌과 흙같은 축열매체가 사용되고 있지 않다. 축열매체를 사용하고 있지 않기 때문에 온돌바닥면과 난방공간과의 온도차가 심하게 되어 쾌적도가 떨어지므로 난방열을 지속적으로 공급해야 하는 어려움이 있다. 이와 같은 현재의 난방법을 개선기 위하여, 본 연구에서는 잠열축열재와 바이오세라믹으로 구성된 온돌을 개발하였고, 그 난방특성을 실험적으로 분석하였다.
