The outdoor design conditions for summer and winter are basic data required for determining the heating and cooling loads and HVAC equipment capacity. The latest study reported was based on the 1960's weather data, which is widely used by HVAC design engineers in Korea. The purpose of this paper is to update the outdoor design conditions for HVAC loads and equipments based on the weather data for the 1970's. The weather conditions of 24 sites, namely Sokcho, Chuncheon, Gangreung, Seoul, Inchon, Ulreungdo, Suweon, Seosan, Cheongju, Daejeon, Chupungryeong, Pohang, Gunsan, Daegu, Jeonju, Ulsan, Kwangju, Busan, Chungmu, Mokpo, Yeosu, Jeju, Seogwipo, and Jinju have been analyzed to calculate the outdoor design conditions. This analys is performed on the basis of TAC $1\%,\;TAC\;2.5\%,\;and\;TAC\;5\%$.

The purpose of this study is to present a method to determine the optimal stop time of HVAC using the Artificial Neural Network model, which is one of the learning methods. For this, the performance of determining the stop time of HVAC for unexperienced learning data was evaluated, and time interval for measurement of input data and permissible error needed for practical application of ANN model were presented using the results from daily simulation.

In the present work, numerical analyses of air flow in HVAC duct have been carried out for enhancement of cooling/heating performance. For the analyses, three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations have been solved with the shear stress transport turbulence model. The numerical results were validated in comparison with the experimental data. Based on the numerical results, the HVAC duct was designed to reduce the pressure loss. The modified duct geometry shows largely reduced pressure drop in comparison with the reference geometry. And, through modified duct shape, the performance of air conditioning has been enhanced.

Optimized capacity of equipments are essential for energy saving and low cost construction and operation. So we must use proper design data for HVAC system design. We investigated for architectural data, equipment capacity, cooling and heating load design criteria of 52 office buildings. Following research results were obtained by carrying out each task. Office building effective area rate is 63%. The average building cooling load of South Korea is $140W/m^2$ and average heating loads in Seoul and Pusan area are $120{\sim}130W/m^2$ and $70{\sim}80W/m^2$. We also analysised HVAC design criteria. Person ratio in effective building area is $0.2person/m^2$, sensitive and latent heat loads of a person are 60W and 65W, light and equipment loads of office buildings are $25W/m^2$ and $20W/m^2$.

Numerical simulation is conducted to clarify the heat transfer and fluid flow characteristics of HVAC(Heating, Ventilating and Air-Conditioning) for double' deck train. The HVAC system is installed under the roof of carbody. In the lay-out of HVAC system, air duct must be installed to supply air to 1st and 2nd floor respectively. The standard k-$\epsilon$ and LES models for turbulence and SIMPLE algorithm for pressure equation hased on finite volume method are used to solve the physic a] HVAC model. To assure convergence, QUICK scheme for momentum equation and the 2nd order upwind scheme for turbulent equations arc used. From the results of simulation, the temperature and velocity magnitude are also distributed uniformly in the interior of double-deck passenger car.

Heating, Ventilation and hir Conditioning (HVAC) system in nuclear facility should be equipped and constructed more stable and allowable than that in common facility. The purpose of HVAC system is the maintenance of optimum working environment, the protection of worker against a contaminated air and the prevention of atmospheric contamination due to a outward ventilation, etc.. The basic scheme of a safety operation of nuclear facility is to prevent the atmospheric contamination even in low level. The adaptability of HVAC system should be taken into account in the design stage so that it is possible to modify the system which is in operation. In this study, the design requirements of HVAC system in nuclear facility and the HVAC systems in foreign countries are reviewed, and the results can be utilized in the design of HVAC system in nuclear facility.

This study deals with the BIM (Building Information Modeling)-based energy performance analysis implemented in EnergyPlus. The BIM model constructed at Revit is updated at Design Builder, adding HVAC models and converted compatibly with the EnergyPlus. We can obtain the input values about HVAC system and building environment such as HVAC system efficient, the number of air changes and energy consumption of equipment on applying GAs (Genetic algorithms). After modification about HVAC system, Optimization about HVAC system energy consumption can be analyzed. In order to maximize the building energy performance, a genetic algorithm (GA)-based optimization technique is applied to the modified HVAC models. Throughout the proposed building energy simulation, finally, the best optimized HVAC control schedule for the target building can be obtained in the form of "supply air temperature schedule". Throughout the supply air temperature schedule is applied to energy performance simulation, we obtained energy saving effect result on simulation.

A HVAC(Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning) is adapted to increase the comfort of the cabin environment for train. The train HVAC duct system has very long duct and many outlets due to the shape of a train set. the duct cross section shape is limited by a roof structure and equipments. Therefore, the pressure distribution and flow uniformity is an important performance indicator for the duct system. In this study, the existing blow down type HVAC duct system for a train was supplemented to improve the flow uniformity by applying a design method combining design of experiment (DOE) with numerical analysis. The design variables and the test sets were selected and the performance for each test set was evaluated using CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics). The influence of each design variable on the system performance was analysed based on the results of the performance evaluation on the test sets. Furthermore, the optimized model, whose the flow uniformity was improved was produced using the direct optimization(gradient-based method). Finally, the performance of the optimized model was evaluated using numerical analysis, and it was confirmed that its flow uniformity has indeed improved.

The current focus of domestic car industry is moving from technological development to reducing greenhouse gas. This study investigates and measures the HVAC system and indoor air condition of highway buses, which is conducted to develop a HVAC system using natural energy in the future. The measurements show that thermal balance is not fulfilled because heating sources are randomly placed, and relative humidity is in the 20 percent range both in HVAC and non-HVAC systems, which is far below 40%, or the highest thermal comfort level. CO2 concentration was found to be an average of 1500 ppm, but not more than 2522 ppm with 15 persons on board, and with 29 persons on board, an average of 2053 ppm, but not more than 3066 ppm, both of which far exceed allowed CO2 concentration level, or 1000 ppm. Generally, highway buses drop by rest stops and open doors for 15 to 20 minutes for getting in fresh air. But its air improvement effect is temporary, and it exacerbates indoor air condition.
