하절기 우리 나라의 온실내 온도는 4$0^{\circ}C$ 또는 그 이상으로 육박하고 있어서 작물 재배에 적합하지가 않다고 말한다. 채소류중에서 비교적 고온에서도 견딜 수 있는 가지과와 박과의 경우 생육 적기온은 20 ~ 28 $^{\circ}C$ 범위에 있으며 최고 한계 온도는 35$^{\circ}C$ 정도이므로 여름철 온실내의 환경은 대체로 작물 재배에 적합하지가 않다고 할 수 있다$^{2)}$ . 또한, 고온으로 인한 재배작물의 품질저하도 고온기 작물생산에 심각한 문제점으로 지적되고 있다. (중략)

여름철 재배시설의 기본적인 온도상승 억제방법은 차광과 환기이지만 이 방법만으로는 작물의 적정 생육온도에 접근하기 어렵기 때문에 추가적인 냉방 장치가 도입되고 있다. 현재 온실의 냉방시스템은 물의 증발잠열을 이용한 Pad and Fan 방식과 Fog 방식의 냉방시스템이 보급되어 있으나, 국내의 지역기상조건을 감안한 연구가 충분히 이루어지지 못하여 냉방시스템의 설치와 운영에 대한 기준이 명확하지 못한 실정이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 현장 실험을 통하여 기초적인 자료를 수집하였다.

일반적으로 온실은 저온기에는 보온이나 난방을 하면서 적극 사용하고 있으나 고온기에는 냉방에 소요되는 에너지가 난방에 비해 상대적으로 많이 소요되므로 온실의 활용도가 떨어지게 된다. 자연환기 시스템은 에너지를 사용하지 않거나 최소한으로 줄여 온실내 온도를 최소한 외부와 동일하게 하거나 낮게 하기 위한 장치라고 할 수 있다. 자연환기를 위한 환기창으로 유리온실이나 경질판 온실과 같은 양지붕형 온실에서는 측창으로 3Way방식이나 권취식, 프로젝트방식 등 다양한 환기창을 사용하고 있으나 천창은 주로 온실 길이방향의 연속형 창틀을 랙앤피니언이나 X형 개폐암으로 개폐하는 프로젝트 방식을 많이 사용하고 있다.

The cooling effect of a fog cooling system has a close relationship to air flow and relative humidity in the greenhouse. From the VETH chart for cooling design, a cooling efficiency can be improved by means of increasing the air exchange rate and the amount of sprayed water. In the no shading experimental greenhouse by time control, when average air exchange rate was 0.77 times.min$^{-1}$ and spray water amount was 2,009g, inside temperature of the greenhouse was 31$^{\circ}C$ that was almost close to outside temperature and cooling efficiency was 82%. When average air exchange rate was close to temperature of the greenhouse that was no cooling and 70% shading greenhouse environment. When average air exchange rate was 2.59times.min$^{-1}$ , spray water amount was 2,009g and shading rate was 70%, inside relative humidity of the greenhouse was increased was 2,009 g and shading rate was 70%, inside relative humidity of the greenhouse was increased, but temperature was not decreased. When average air exchange rate was 2.33 times.min$^{-1}$ and spray water amount was 2,009g, inside temperature was 31.4 and at that time maximum wind speed at the air inlet of greenhouse was 1.9m.s$^{-1}$ . Since time controller sprayed amount of constant water at a given interval, some of sprayed water remained not to be evaporated, which increased relative humidity and decreased cooling efficiency. Because the shading screen prevented air flow in the greenhouse, it also caused the evaporation efficiency to be decreased. In order to increase cooling efficiency, it was necessary to study on controling by relative humidity and air circulation in the greenhouse.

최근 온실에 온수 보일러를 설치하여 실내를 가온하는 시스템이 많이 도입되고 있다. 이들 장치들은 설정된 실내온도를 맞추기 위한 온도 제어장치가 부가되어 있지만, 대부분 ON-OFF제어 시스템을 구성하고 있기 때문에 온도 진폭의 현상이 발생하여 온도 제어 정밀성이 떨어지고 에너지소비도 많다. 이 문제점을 해결하기 위하여는 보일러 온수저장조와 온설 내 방열관 사이에 삼방변을 설치하고 설정온도, 실내온도 및 외기온을 비교하여 삼방변의 위치를 조절하여야 한다. (중략)

본 연구에서는 자연광 이용 온실의 재배면적을 최대화 하기 위하여 작물생강 모델링, 태양의 위치 및 일사량을 이용하여 2단재배 시스템을 위한 한계일사량 산정 모델, 2단재배 광환경 분성 모델을 개발하였다. 그리고 광환경의 변화에 따른 작물 생장 지체시간을 이용하여 작물의 생산량이 최대가 될 수 있는 한계 일사량의 값을 산정하여 2단 재배 시스템을 최적 설계 하였다. 2단재배 시스템의 최적설계를 위한 분석결과 총 생산량이 약 3.669 kg (d.m.)${\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}yerar^{-1}$이며, 기존 재배방식보다 130.2 %의 생산 증대 효과를 잦는 것으로 계산 되었다. 이와 같은 다단재배 시스템은 온실 내부의 공간을 효율적으로 이용하여 제배면적 대비 에너지 투입 비용을 절감 할 것으로 기대 된다.

Continuous monitoring of environmental parameters provides farmers with useful information, which can improve the quality and productivity of crops grown in greenhouses. The objective of this study was to develop a greenhouse environment measurement system using a low-cost microcontroller with open-source software. Greenhouse environment parameters measured were air temperature, relative humidity, and carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) concentration. The ranges of the temperature, relative humidity, and $CO_2$ concentration were -40 to $120^{\circ}C$, 0 to 100%, and 0 to 10,000 ppm, respectively. A $128{\times}64$ graphic LCD display was used for real-time monitoring of the greenhouse environments. An Arduino Uno R3 consisted of a USB interface for communicating with a computer, 6 analog inputs, and 14 digital input/output pins. A temperature/relative humidity sensor was connected to digital pins 2 and 3. A $CO_2$ sensor was connected to digital pins 12 and 13. The LCD was connected to digital pin 1 (TX). The sketches were programmed with the Arduino Software (IDE). A measurement system including the Arduino board, sensors, and accessories was developed (totaling $244). Data for the environmental parameters in a venlo-type greenhouse were obtained using this system without any problems. We expect that the low-cost microcontroller using open-source software can be used for monitoring the environments of plastic greenhouses in Korea.

This study was performed to find an efficient method to overcome extremely high temperature in greenhouses during summer season. The actual utilization of greenhouses during hot summer season showed that about 21.6％ of the investigated greenhouse farms were in fallow state, and most of greenhouse farms were cultivated under the very inferior environment. Thermal environment of greenhouses according to the evaporative cooling method and several assistant cooling methods such as ventilation, shading screen, roof sprinkling were examined. As the each assistant cooling method was used, about 74.8％, 25.9％, and 58.2％ of temperatures measured at intervals of ten minutes between ten and seventeen o'clock were above 35$^{\circ}C$. When shading screen and evaporative cooling system were operated, most greenhouse air temperatures were maintained below 35$^{\circ}C$, and showed a drop of 3.8~4.2$^{\circ}C$ as compared with naturally ventilated greenhouse.

Evaporative cooling pad system is one of the main cooling methods in greenhouses and its efficiency is very high. However, it has some disadvantages such as greenhouse temperature distributions are not uniform and installation cost is expensive. In this study, a CFD simulation model f3r predicting the air temperature distribution in the fan and fad cooling greenhouse was developed. The model was calibrated and validated against experimental data and a good fit was obtained. The influence of different outside wind, fan and pad height, ventilation rate, shading, and greenhouse length, were then examined. In order to reduce the internal temperature gradients, it is desired that the prevail wind direction and the fan and pad heights are considered. The simulation indicates that high ventilation rates and shading contribute to reduce the temperature gradients in the fan and pad cooling greenhouse. In order to maintain the desired greenhouse temperature, the pad-to-fan distance should be restricted according to the design climate conditions, shading and ventilation rates. The developed CFD model can be a useful tool to evaluate and design the fan and pad systems in the greenhouses with various configurations.

Agricultural machine is currently operated by man power in the greenhouse, which is oppressively hot and humid, and is for a farmer not to work in comfortable circumstances. In the future, agricultural machine will not have to operate by man power, but it will need do by unmanned power. In order to put into the automatic and unmanned operation of agricultural machine, this system was designed and built to move through the fixed path in the greenhouse. This system was composed of guiders(wires), a limit switch, an operating equipment, its software for automatizing a machine in the greenhouse. The guider was connected between the wall pillars, and the equipment was able to slide over the fixed path made of the guider, by rectilinear and rotational motion. A micro mouse was developed with a stepping motor to calculate on the success rate of its operation with the system As might be expected, this system with the micro mouse was moved the moved the paths with a success rate of 100% on the flat plane surface in our laboratory. However, on the sand plane or the other materials plane, the success rate was not better than 80%. If the micro mouse were well operated, the success rate was would be 100%. Based on the results of this research, this system would be expected to operate well on the path made of a simple wire.
