In this paper, a personal air-conditioning system considering the human thermal adaptability is analyzed. Although the conventional personal air-conditioner was proofed to be satisfactory in providing for the thermal comfort, it is being questioned on the term of its energy efficiency. Therefore, it is important and urgent to develop new types of personal air-conditioning system with sustainable control strategy that can ensure energy saving and thermal comfort simultaneously. In this study, we first examined the problems of the conventional personal air-conditioning system with field interview and laboratory experiment in terms of usage, management and thermal comfort, and proposed the energy-saving personal air-conditioning system considering the human thermal adaptation. Then a laboratory experiment was performed to analyze the characteristics of the human thermal comfort under severe indoor thermal conditions, which were controlled using a new personal air-conditioning unit designed according to the proposal. The results help to illustrate the alleviation effect of the new personal air-conditioning system, and indicate that the thermal alleviation time is useful to maintain the thermal comfort with efficient usage of energy.

As the economic power is improved and the customer's demand is hard to please, the noise and vibration is the most important yardstick that can determine the quality of the product. Especially, as the airconditioner's demand increase suddenly, the product of quality and the noise is becoming a decisive factor of determining whether purchase the product or not. Therefore, every manufactory is investing a lot of money and research to cut down the unpleasantness induced from noise and vibration. And they are emphasizing their product's difference by advertising a silence very actively. With these reason, the demand of a silent indoor air-conditioner is the essential research filed when the product is develop(:d. In this study, the noise and vibration is visualized in the space and frequency domain by using experimental methods such as operational deflection shape (ODS), modal testing and sound intensity. Also the location of noise source and its characteristic is analyzed in an acoustical point of view to reduce the structure borne noise that come from the fan motor, and the pertinent control method is suggested. Furthermore, the most suitable shape of the motor bracket is suggested by applying FEM and DOE (Design of experiments) in the noise and vibration point a view.

In this paper, we propose a system that monitors and controls the environment of a server room in real-time based on IoT. Recently, as the information society has been maximized, the damage has been significant when the computer system is down. In particular, damage such as a fire in the server room leads to loss of data and data recovery becomes impossible. In order to reduce such damage, a node capable of real-time monitoring using an IoT system was proposed. In addition, we proposed a coordinator node that can collect and monitor node information. In order to verify that the proposed system works, we have developed software that can control node monitoring and air conditioning. As a result of the experiment, we confirmed that the proposed system detects fire and controls the air conditioner.

The showcase has insufficient temperature control, but it has excellent humidity control. The annual average temperature and relative humidity inside the showcase was $18.8^{\circ}C$ and 60.3%, respectively, and the showcase showed lower temperature and higher humidity than the exhibition room. The temperature inside the showcase appeared with high variation according to the seasons, while relative humidity was ranging from 59% to 61% regardless of the seasons. The showcase showed high temperature and humidity likewise the exhibition room in summer. In addition, lowering of temperature was elevated relative humidity according to the operation of air conditioner in summer. A moisture problem occurred because the temperature and humidity differences between the exhibition room and showcase were large according to the operation of air conditioner in winter. PI for temperature and relative humidity inside the showcase is 18.0%, and it means conservation environment for exhibition is unsuitable. In particular, continuous management of temperature and humidity inside the showcase is required because PI in the summer and winter is less than 1.0%.

This paper suggests the new techmology to control metal flow in order to reduce the number of preforming and machining for the cold forged product with complex geometry. This technology can be summarized the complex forming, which consists of bulk forming and sheet forming, and multi-action forging, which be preformed double action dies. To analyze the process, finite element simulation has been performed. The proposed technology is applied to hub which is part of air conditioner clutch. According to the result of this study, the relative velocity of mandrel and punch is primary process variable.

4계절이 뚜렷한 우리나라의 겨울철은 작물생산에 단경기이었으나, 플라스틱 하우스나 유리온실이 보급되면서 겨울철 단경기가 해소되었다. 그러나 이리한 시설들은 PE 또는 유리 등의 피복자재를 사용하여 여름철의 경우 막대한 일사부하로 온실 내부온도가 외부온도보다 높아져 작물생육에 열악한 환경을 조성한다. 이에 fog and pad system, fan and pad system 과 heat pump 등이 개발되어 있으나 실용적으로 도입되지 못하고 있는 실정이다. (중략)

Indoor climate control equipments is used to make the indoor environment more comfortable when indoor condition is not satisfactory to inhabitants. In this study, which instrument is preferred to control indoor climate and which is not preferred were surveyed with questionnaire. With this result, the needs of dwellers and wanting performance of housing could be revealed. Results are followings 1) The satisfaction ratio and equipment possession ratio of apartment houses' is higher than that of detached dwelling's 2) It is recognized for inhabitants that air cleaner is the mostly used equipment and best equipment for indoor comfort. 3) Electronic fomentation mat is recognized as the most problematic equipment for securing inhabitant's comfort. And air conditioner is considered negative for 60% of responser's. As grow older, this trend is increasing.

Noise from air-conditioner system installed in the ceiling of a classroom was evaluated to investigate the sound quality of air-conditioning noise. Harmonics of air-conditioning noise were removed and the sound pressure levels of the frequency bands from $250{\sim}630Hz$ were changed to control sound quality. Evaluation for refreshing sensation was conducted using a paired comparison method and the results showed that noise without harmonics were preferred to noise with harmonics. The noises which have larger level increases to the unchanged noise at $250{\sim}630Hz$ were evaluated better in both of the noises with and without harmonics. Results of multiple regression analysis on psychoacoustic parameters and subjective preferences showed sharpness as a major affecting factor in describing the refreshing aspect of air-conditioning sound.

A dynamic simulation model was developed to analyse the transient characteristics of a multi-inverter heat pump. The programs included a basic air conditioning system such as a evaporator, condenser, compressor, linear electronic expansion valve (LEV) and by-pass circuit. The theoretical model was derived from mass conservation and energy conservation equations to predict the performance of the multi-inverter heat pump at various operating conditions. Calculated results were compared with the values obtained from the experiments at different operation frequencies of compressor, area of the LEV and configuration of indoor units operation. The results of the simulation model showed a good agreement with the experimental ones, so that the model could be used as an efficient tool for thermodynamic design and control factor design of air-conditioners.
