This paper discovers the energy loss factors through the insulation diagnosis of houses or buildings, and proposes directions for energy efficiency improvement. The energy efficiency factor of a building consists of insulation diagnosis, thermal bridge diagnosis, window diagnosis, airtight diagnosis, and equipment diagnosis. Among the residents and facilities in the energy welfare blind spot, an energy efficiency diagnosis was conducted for one senior citizen building located in Naju-si, Jeollanam-do, and energy efficiency diagnosis was conducted after insulation was installed. Energy measurement, diagnosis and analysis were performed using the IoT-based integrated wired/wireless energy diagnosis platform, Energy Finder. As a result of comparison, an overall energy saving rate of 16.38% was achieved. Annual heating energy consumption per unit area decreased from 333.51kWh before construction to 277.35kWh after construction, and annual cooling energy consumption per unit area decreased from 5.51kWh before construction to 5.22kWh after construction. The annual primary energy consumption per unit area decreased from 464.52kWh before construction to 403.69kWh after construction, and the annual energy cost was reduced from 3,063,307.14 won before construction to 2,641,072.49 won after construction. The additional improvement work is needed on the standards affecting energy efficiency other than insulation.

In accordance with the New and Renewable Energy Supply Statistics, biomass power generation has surged since 2013, and use of wood pellet has the most sharply increased, 696Gwh in 2013, 2,764Gwh in 2014 and 2,512Gwh in 2015. Total domestic wood pellet consumption was 1.48million tons in 2015, of which wood pellets consumed for power generation account for about 1.08million tons, about 73%. In this study, we gained the result that the wood pellet would be consumed 2.61million tons in 2020, 6.85million tons in 2025, 11.39million tons in 2030. We also calculated the optimum biomass power generation, on the premise that the power plant co-fire 50% biomass, and the result was that 2.26million tons of wood pellets should be produced domestically in 2021 to operate the present licensed wood pellet power plant from this study.

In order to establish the energy conservation strategy in canning of acid food, the enery consumption of peach canning factory was monitored. The energy intensity was investigated and quantification of thermal and electrical energy was undertaken in individual operations. For processing of 1 kg raw peach, thermal energy 864 kcal and electrical energy 0.045 KWh was consumed in overall factory. From daily processing of 14 M/T peach, 2060 kg waste like seeds and 1510 kg low grade product were produced, and syrup of 6240 kg was prepared for filling in can. Enery intensive operations were lyepeeling(35%) and pasteurization(53%). Steam quality in the monitored factory was in the range of $87{\sim}88%$ with no difference among processing lines and 23% of supplied thermal energy in pasteurization was utilized actually for heating food.

For the hydrogen liquefaction, the large amount of energy is consumed, because precooling, liquefaction and ortho/para conversion heats should be eliminated. In this paper the basic design and thermal analysis are carried out to reduce the energy consumption by using LNG cold energy for precooling process in hydrogen liquefaction processes. The LNG cold energy utilization for hydrogen precooling enables not only to get energy saving for liquefaction, but to recover the wasted cold energy to sea water at the LNG terminal. The results show that the energy saving rate for liquefaction using LNG cold energy is almost 75% of current industrial hydrogen liquefaction plant. The demand flow-rate of LNG is only 15T/D for 1T/D hydrogen liquefaction.

The purpose of this study was to consider the energy generation of the building as well as the energy demand of the building in terms of zero energy building design. The reason why the zero energy building viewpoint should be discussed is that direction of the building, heat transfer rate of the building, and the S/V ratio of the building are variables related to energy demand and solar panels installed on the building roof and building envelope are variables related to energy generation. This study proceeded as follows; Firstly, the simulation model of large office and elementary school has the same mutual volume and total floor area, and the each floor area and number of floors are adjusted so that the S/V ratio is different. To the next, the energy demand and energy generation of the simulation model were derived based on the meteorological data of Seoul, Daejeon, Busan. Finally, energy demand, energy generation, and final energy demand were compared with heat transfer rate, S/V ratio, building type, region, and orientation. The results of this study is that consideration of solar power generation in terms of energy generation should be taken into consideration at the same time in consideration of the heat transfer rate, the shape, the region and the direction of the zero energy building design.

At the time when zero energy building is expected to be generalized, this study examines whether the investment in the passive element or the active element is more effective in terms of energy in the construction process of zero energy building. In other words, the effect of energy demand by passive element and the change of energy generation by active element are examined in terms of the same investment cost. The purpose of this study is to examine the change of energy demand by passive element and the change of energy generation by active element in zero energy building and to make reasonable investment decision by comparing energy with cost aspect. For this purpose, we selected the buildings to be subjected to energy simulation and derive the required energy amount and energy generation amount by using meteorological data of four regions in Korea. The change of energy demand and energy generation according to the change of application condition was derived. In order to compare and analyze the changes in energy demand and generation at the same cost standard through price survey and quotation of window and photovoltaic power generation equipment.

Low-temperature in-bin paddy drying has been examined to study the limitations of this drying method under Korean weather conditions, the initial moisture content of the paddy, the bulk depth and the airflow rate. The results are reported and discussed with regard to drying time, energy requirements and costs, uniformity in the moisture content of the dried kernels and, finally, the quality of the paddy. The tests carried out during the paddy-drying period in 1981 and 1982 have shown that under Korean weather conditions paddy can be dried to safe storage conditions by continuous aeration with ambient air. Depending upon the initial moisture content of the kernels(19.2%-25.5% w.b.), the bulk depth(1.1-3.5m) and the airflow $(3.0-6.9m^3\;air/m^3\;paddy/min)$ the paddy could be dried within 5 to 17 days. The energy requirements and energy costs are shown to be considerably lower than for conventional high-temperature drying. No significant changes in the quality in terms of milling yield, cracking ratio, acid value and germination were observed.

The required energy for the heat treatment of pine log was evaluated in this study. A proper heat treatment of pine log infected by pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus) can prevent spreading of the infection by pinewood nematode and make the infected pinewood valuable again. The FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations) heat treatment standard for various types of infected wood for which a heat treatment of the core part of the wood is necessary is 30 minutes at $56^{\circ}C$, taking into account the international standards for phytosanitary measures (ISPM No. 15). In this study, the energy consumption during the heat treatment was separated into two kinds of energy, initial energy for heating kiln drier and to reach set point temperature and relative humidity and the required energy supplementing heat loss. The initial required energy per unit time is greater than that during the treatment. The energy consumption per unit time varied little during the heat treatment. As a result, the set point relative humidity with set dry bulb temperature and density of wood dependent on moisture content are very important factors to change energy consumption in the experiment. The heat treatment at higher temperature and higher humidity levels requires more energy consumption but less treatment time. It is expected that a more effective energy program could be planed for the heat treatment of pine log through this study.
