현재까지 IoT 관련 기술들은 수많이 발전해왔다. 하지만 IoT 관련 기술들이 농업에 적용된 사례는 많지 않다. 이로 인해 농업에서는 자동화로 대체가 가능한 노동들이 여전히 사람들이 직접 하고 있다. 본 논문은 농업에 종사하시는 분들의 편의성 증대와 함께 농촌의 부족한 노동력을 충족시키기 위해 센서들을 이용하여 자동화된 농업 시스템인 '온실 환경 자동 케어 시스템'을 제안한다. 기존의 사람의 노동력을 이용한 방식이 아닌 컴퓨터가 센서와 상호작용을 하여 데이터를 처리하고 온실을 제어하여 농업 종사자들의 편의성을 증대시켜 나아가 농업의 부족한 노동력을 충족 시킬 수 있다.

Modern agriculture is being transformed into smart agriculture to maximize production efficiency along with changes in the 4th industrial revolution. However, rural areas in Korea are facing challenges of aging, low fertility, and population outflow, making it difficult to transition to smart agriculture. Among ICT technologies, simulation allows users to observe or experience the results of their choices through imitation or reproduction of reality. The combination of the three-dimension (3D) model and the greenhouse simulator enable a 3D experience by virtual greenhouse for fruits and vegetable cultivation. At the same time, it is possible to visualize the greenhouse under various cultivation or climate conditions. The objective of this study is to apply the greenhouse climate management model for simulation development that can visually see the state of the greenhouse environment under various micrometeorological properties. The numerical solution with the mathematical model provided a dynamic change in the greenhouse environment for a particular greenhouse design. Light intensity, crop transpiration, heating load, ventilation rate, the optimal amount of CO₂ enrichment, and daily light integral were calculated with the simulation. The results of this study are being built so that users can be linked through a web page, and software will be designed to reflect the characteristics of cladding materials and greenhouses, cultivation types, and the condition of environmental control facilities for customized environmental control. In addition, environmental information obtained from external meteorological data, as well as recommended standards and set points for each growth stage based on experiments and research, will be provided as optimal environmental factors. This simulation can help growers, students, and researchers to understand the ICT technologies and the changes in the greenhouse microclimate according to the growing conditions.

일반적으로 시설원예용 환경제어장치란 온실 내부 환경을 작물생육에 적합한 환경으로 조성시키기 위하여 원예시설에 부착된 환기창이나 냉난방장치, $CO_2$발생기, 양액제어장치 등을 통해 온도, 습도, $CO_2$, EC, pH 등의 각종 환경을 인위적으로 조절해 주는 장치라고 할 수 있다. 이러한 장치는 수동스위치 조작에서부터 전자제어, 컴퓨터에 의한 복합환경제어에 이르기까지 매우 다양한 제품이 생산 판매되고 있지만, 상호 제품간 호환성이 없으며, 성능에도 차이가 나는 것을 볼 수 있다. (중략)

재배시설내의 재배면적은 온실의 경우 벤치의 구성 방법에 따라서 차이는 있으나 바닥 면적의 47-68% 정도로 전체 면적에 비하여 생산에 사용되는 면적의 효율이 높지 못한 편이다(Langhans, 1990). 이러한 재배면적을 최대로 확보하여 단위 면적당 생산량을 높이기 위한 연구가 자동화 온실이나 식물공장을 중심으로 진행되고 있다. 이러한 연구는 많은 성과를 거두고 있으나 인공광을 이용하거나, 부가적인 기계화 장비나 자동화 설비가 필요하여 에너지 비용과 시설비용이 무시 못 할 정도이며, 고도의 제어기술이 요구되고 있어 상업용으로 보급되지 못하고 있다.

지상의 기상환경조절이 불가능한 노지재배는 생산의 불안정요인이 대부분 기후조건으로 부터 기인된다. 반면에 시설원예는 피복재를 이용하여 격리된 공간을 만들고 그 속에 태양에너지를 저장하고 이를 제어하여 작물의 생육에 적절한 온실환경을 조성하는 수단이며 밀폐된 공간은 외부와 격리되어 있기 때문에 열 및 물질의 전달이 억제되므로 필요한 경우에는 열, $CO_2$, 습도 및 공기의 이동 등 보조에너지의 투입이 가능하므로 보다 적절한 지상환경조건을 조성할 수 있다. (중략)

This study set out to conduct a field survey with smart greenhouse-based farms in seven types to figure out the actual state of smart greenhouses distributed across the nation before selecting a system to implement an optimal greenhouse environment and doing a research on higher productivity based on data related to crop growth, development, and environment. The findings show that the farms were close to an intelligent or advanced smart farm, given the main purposes of leading cases across the smart farm types found in the field. As for the age of farmers, those who were in their forties and sixties accounted for the biggest percentage, but those who were in their fifties or younger ran 21 farms that accounted for approximately 70.0%. The biggest number of farmers had a cultivation career of ten years or less. As for the greenhouse type, the 1-2W type accounted for 50.0%, and the multispan type accounted for 80.0% at 24 farms. As for crops they cultivated, only three farms cultivated flowers with the remaining farms growing only fruit vegetables, of which the tomato and paprika accounted for approximately 63.6%. As for control systems, approximately 77.4% (24 farms) used a domestic control system. As for the control method of a control system, three farms regulated temperature and humidity only with a control panel with the remaining farms adopting a digital control method to combine a panel with a computer. There were total nine environmental factors to measure and control including temperature. While all the surveyed farms measured temperature, the number of farms installing a ventilation or air flow fan or measuring the concentration of carbon dioxide was relatively small. As for a heating system, 46.7% of the farms used an electric boiler. In addition, hot water boilers, heat pumps, and lamp oil boilers were used. As for investment into a control system, there was a difference in the investment scale among the farms from 10 million won to 100 million won. As for difficulties with greenhouse management, the farmers complained about difficulties with using a smart phone and digital control system due to their old age and the utter absence of education and materials about smart greenhouse management. Those difficulties were followed by high fees paid to a consultant and system malfunction in the order.

In this study, the design and performance test of the air to water heat pump capable of producing hot water for greenhouse heating by using the surplus solar heat inside the greenhouse and the air heat outside greenhouse as the selective heat source were conducted. The heat storage operations using the surplus solar heat and the outside air heat were designed to be switched according to the setting temperature of the greenhouse in consideration of the optimum temperature range of the crop. In the developed system, it was possible to automatically control the switching of heat storage operation, heating and ventilation by setting 12 reference temperatures on the control panel. In the selective heat storage operation with the surplus solar heat and outside air heat, the temperature of thermal storage tank was controlled variably from $35^{\circ}C$ to $52^{\circ}C$ according to the heat storage rate and heating load. The heat storage operation times using the surplus solar heat and outside air heat were 23.1% and 30.7% of the experimental time respectively and the heat pump pause time was 46.2%. COP(coefficient of performance) of the heat pump of the heat storage operation using the surplus solar heat and outside air heat were 3.83 and 2.77 respectively and was 3.24 for whole selective heat storage operation. For the comparative experiment, the heat storage operation using the outside air heat only was performed under the condition that the temperature of the thermal storage tank was controlled constantly from 50 to $52^{\circ}C$, and COP was analyzed to be 2.33. As a result, it was confirmed that the COP of the heat storage operation using the surplus solar heat and outside air heat as selective heat source and the variable temperature control of the thermal storage tank was 39% higher than that of the general heat storage operation using the outside air heat only and the constant temperature control of the thermal storage tank.
