The purpose of this study is to analyse the effects of air conditioned room controlled by PMV(Predicted Mean Vote)for energy consumption and human comfort in office building. The 'EnergyPlus' was used for the evaluation of indoor thermal environment and energy consumption by the controls of room temperature and PMV. The result indicates that the PMV control could prove more profitable method for improvement of indoor thermal environment and energy conservation. Consequently, PMV control has a distinct advantage over most other control methods. An additional study is required to establish the various thermal comfort control for rooms on the basis of this work.

The purpose of this study is to research into the thermal condition and the weight of clothes suitable for the officers engagged in light works in an air-conditioned room in summer. The Major findings are as follows: 1. Thermal conditions of the working environment are $24.5^{\circ}C$ (Dry bulb temp.), $68\%$ (Relative humidity) and 2.6m/sec (Air Velocity). 2. Total clothing weights are 416.6 g/$m^2$ (male) and 340.9 g/$m^2$ (female). Underwear weights are 96.8g/$m^2$ (male) and 85.1g/$m^2$ (female). The latter turned out to be statistically significant in Sexual difference. 3. Means of the thermal sensation are 3.0 (comfortable; male) 2.7 ('Slightly cool' -'Comfortable'; female) and the relationship between clothing weights and thermal sensation proves to be significantly correlated in the case of female. 4. $66.7\%$ of the women and $37.1\%$ of the men feel sensation of coldness at the body's specific area and $79.5\%$ of the women and $54.3\%$ of the men reveals air-conditioning disturbance. 5. As the thermal sensation is close to 'cool-cold', sensation of coldness or air conditioning disturbance are showed up more frequently which is reversely related with weight of under-wear. It is also proved that air conditioning disturbances are influenced by sexual difference in addition to sensation of coldness and thermal sensation. 6. According to the result of experiment, we can have the idea that at condition $X_1$, the drop of limbs' skin temp. is remarkable. At condition $X_2$ skin temp. for distal limbs and mean skin temp. are raised and the falling degree is similar. At condition $X_3$, mean skin temp. and distal skin temp. are remarkably raised, and the falling degree decreases and the beats of pulse rate increase and diastoric blood pressure is lowered.

Using air conditioner has been increased in home or office buildings in summer. Also various problems related to air conditioning such as disease induction happened by using air conditioner excessively and operating long. Active operation control is needed for occupant's health when air conditioner operates long. We should think ahead to acquire thermal comfort of occupants which represents psychological and physiological reaction for this operation. Research has been progressed to observe activity of autonomic nervous system by trying to quantitate change of thermal comfort. In this study, questions of the subject and change of body's autonomic nervous system were chosen to evaluate thermal comfort during operation of air conditioner for a long time. Electrocardiogram and questions of the subject which is the progress of changing TSV and CSV by occupants indoor were measured when room air conditioner is operated for a long time, and an air-conditioned adaptability of human body was evaluated by acquiring the change rate of autonomic nervous system through analyzing HRV. As a result of the evaluation, change rate of body's autonomic nervous system corresponded to votes of the subject's question generally, but was distinguished from analysis result of warm-cold sensation in a low temperature area.

A precision of temperature control in the manufacturing process would be an important factor and become the main key to control production quality. Mostly manufacture machinery used oil as a coolant in their system so an accurate oil temperature control system become an absolute need in industrial field. This paper presents a experiment research to control the oil temperature constant at target point, in this experiment is $35^{\circ}C$ by using an inverter attached in compressor to varying the compressor speed. This control has been completed and tested through an experiment with different heat load of 4kW, 6kW, 7kW, 8kW and 10kW given under temperature constant room conditioned as $25^{\circ}C$. The results had shown the temperature deviation in the refrigerator has around $0.2^{\circ}C$ and the COP is 2.5 gained at 8kW and 10kW.

Bypass air conditioning systems are divided into three types; outdoor air bypass, mixed air bypass and return air bypass system. Among bypass air conditioning systems, a return air bypass system is more effective than other two systems because it doesn't induce unconditioned outdoor air into conditioned room. The numerical study on the bypass air conditioning system shows this system can maintain indoor RH(Relative Humidity) less than a conventional CAV (Constant Air Volume) air conditioning system by adjusting face and bypass dampers at part load. A simulator was built to compare results of a numerical experiment and those of a simulator experiment. The results of the simulator experiment was nearly same as those of the numerical experiment; when a design sensible load (the ratio of sensible load to total sensible load) was 70 percent (at this time, RSHF=0.7), indoor relative humidity (in case of both numerical experiments and simulator experiments) was maintained below 60% specified by ASHRAE STANDARD 62-1999. The bypass air conditioning system is expected to be applied to many buildings where the Percentage of latent loads or air change tate is high.

subway has became citizen's feet which can transport over 24 million people since the era of high oil price started. Because the request of passengers for more comfortable thermal comfort is drastically increasing, the importance of comfortable environment in the passenger car is more stressed. This paper suggests an indicator whether railroad car is fitted with suitable cooling and heating equipment by applying the international climatic testing method, UIC 553, 553-1. Specified ambient temperature, humidity, solar irradiation condition, as well as extreme outside condition, can be achieved by using an environmental chamber. The change temperature and humidity in the passenger space can be monitored to judge if the passenger room is nicely air-conditioned.

A study was conducted to determine the physical properties related to drying characteristics, the seasonal air drying curves and the kiln drying schedule for taun lumber imported and utilized. This kiln drying schedule was found by oven drying and developed by pilot testing of green lumber and partially air dried lumber. The results of this study were as follows; 1. Average green specific gravity and standard deviation of heartwood lumber were 0.60${\pm}$0.03 and those of sapwood lumber were 0.64${\pm}$0.02. 2. Radial shrinkage from green to air dry and from green to oven dry were 3.05 percent and 5.96 percent respectively, and tangential shrinkage from green to air dry and to oven dry were 5.49 percent and 8.74 percent respectively. 3. Drying time for 25mm thick green lumber (50 percent moisture content) air dried to 30 percent moisture content were 14 days in springtime. 6 days in summertime, and 12 days in autumntime, whereas for 50mm thick lumber in 36 days in springtime, 18 days in summertime, 38 days in autumntime. 4. Kiln drying schedules developed by oven drying were T8-B3 for 25mm thick lumber and T5-B2 for 50mm thick lumber. 5. Kiln drying curves of green 25mm and 50mm thick lumber were similar to those of partially air dried lumber from the level of 30 percent average moisture content. Green 25mm thick lumber (55.7 percent moisture content) was dried to 9.3 percent moisture content in 101.5 hours and green 50mm thick lumber (65.6 percent moisture content) was dried to 11.5 percent moisture content in 526 hours. 6. End checking for green 25mm thick lumber occured in 49.6 percent moisture content and reached maximum amount in 27.6 percent moisture content and closed in 15.8 percent moisture content. 7. End checking for green 50mm thick lumber and partially air dried lumber developed and reached maximum amount earlier then for 25mm thick lumber. 8. Final moisture content of surface layer for 50mm thick lumber was one half of that of core, and moisture content equalized in the lumber after nine days of room conditioning. 9. Casehardening for 50mm thick lumber was slight and was conditioned after nine days of room stroage. 10. Drying defects, such as end checking and surface checking, were not observed and the quality of dry lumber was first.

We assessed the growth characteristics of Auricularia polytricha 'Geoni' cultivated in a simple greenhouse constructed of polyethylene (PE) without air conditioning (high temperature) and in an air conditioned mushroomhouse. The successful cultivation of A. polytricha 'Geoni' at high temperatures can reduce energy and facility investment costs. The comparison of growth characteristics of the fungi grown under the different temperature conditions revealed that fruit bodies were larger in the higher temperature condition, but were brighter in the lower temperature condition. Additionally, fruit body physiology was found to be not affected by temperature. In the PE greenhouse, the fresh weight of fruit body was higher in mid-June and early July. Therefore, it was possible to effectively control the growth period of the mushrooms during a high-temperature period. The findings indicate the potential to cultivate A. polytricha 'Geoni' in a simple PE greenhouse that is not cooled in summer, thus reducing energy costs.
