This article reviews the papers published in the Korean Journal of Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration Engineering during 2009. It is intended to understand the status of current research in the areas of heating, cooling, ventilation, sanitation, and indoor environments of buildings and plant facilities. Conclusions are as follows. (1) Research trends of thermal and fluid engineering have been surveyed as groups of general thermal and fluid flow, fluid machinery and piping, and new and renewable energy. Various topics were covered in the field of general thermal and fluid flow such as an expander, a capillary tube, the flow of micro-channel water blocks, the friction and anti-wear characteristics of nano oils with mixtures of refrigerant oils, etc. Research issues mainly focused on the design of micro-pumps and fans, the heat resistance reliability of axial smoke exhaust fans, and hood systems in the field of fluid machinery and piping. Studies on ground water sources were executed concerning two well type geothermal heat pumps and multi-heat pumps in the field of new and renewable energy. (2) Research works on heat transfer area have been reviewed in the categories of heat transfer characteristics and industrial heat exchangers. Researches on heat transfer characteristics included the heat transfer in thermoelectric cooling systems, refrigerants, evaporators, dryers, desiccant rotors.

지구온난화 및 기후변화에 대한 전문 연구기관인 IPCC에 따르면 인간은 기후 시스템에 영향을 끼치고 있다. 이러한 기후 시스템의 변화는 기존 생육환경을 변화시켜 농업 분야의 식재료 공급에 문제를 야기할 수 있다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 수직형 팜은 안정적인 식재료의 공급을 위한 좋은 대안이 될 수 있다. 수직형 스마트 팜은 농작물의 생육환경 유지 및 관리에 깊은 관심을 쏟고 있음에도 불구하고 건축 공간에 온도, 습도, 조도, 산소, CO₂ 농도 등을 균일하게 구현하는 데에는 어려움이 있다. 공기의 균일성 확보를 위해 CFD 분석을 진행한 결과 주목할 만한 결과는 수직형 스마트 팜 내의 공기 균일성을 위해서는 적합한 CO₂ 농도를 장기간 지속적으로 분사하는 것이 유리하다는 것이다. 이 결과를 통해 수직형 스마트 팜에 최적화 된 생육환경 시스템을 효율적으로 계획할 수 있다. 본 연구를 기초로 수직형 스마트 팜의 최적화된 생육환경을 조성하여 효율적인 작물이 생산이 이루어진다면 농업 분야의 발전에 이바지 할 수 있을 것이다.

최근 한옥의 수요 증가에 따라 전통한옥을 보급화 하기 위한 방안으로 신한옥이 개발되었다. 신한옥이란 전통한옥 보급의 저해 요인으로 작용하였던 높은 평단가 및 건축물 성능 보완하여 개발한 한옥의 한 형태이다. 신한옥이 개발되어 짐에 따라 보급화, 표준화, 생산성 향상 등을 위한 다양한 연구들이 진행되고 있다. 그 중, 신한옥을 건설하기 위하여 필수적 요소로 논의되는 예가 산정의 한 측면으로 품셈에 대한 요구가 지속된다. 이에, 본 연구에서는 신한옥 건설 특성을 반영한 표준품셈을 제안한다. 연구의 방법으로는 기존의 품셈 및 Cost Data 체계를 분석하여 신한옥과 부합하는 품셈구조를 제시하고, 실제 구축사례를 통한 세부항목의 선정과 1차적 검증을 실시하였다. 해당 신한옥 표준품셈은 신한옥 표준정보분류체계와 연계되어 있어 다방면에서 효율적인 활용이 가능하다. 또한, 추가 신한옥 구축을 통하여 데이터가 업데이트되면 보다 신뢰할 수 있는 표준품셈이 될 것으로 기대한다.

With the long-term use of fossil fuel, the whole world is suffering from serious abnormal changes in weather caused by global warming. For this reason, many countries are reducing greenhouse gas emissions out of obligation and the allowable emissions are assigned to each country. Korea is also putting much effort into reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 30 percent against BAU(Business As Usual) by 2020, and is pushing ahead with several projects such as 'Million Green Home' and 'Hatsal Gaduk Home' to expand the use of new renewable energy in house as part of its policy. This study was designed to come up with improvements and help to expand photovoltaic facilities, by investigating and analyzing the current state of photovoltaic facilities in the country and problems in installing them through an in-site reconnaissance and a survey in Jecheon area. As the result, it was found that residents in the area were inadequate to operate and install photovoltaic facilities, lacked awareness of them and felt burdened economically by managing and installing them, although they had a high awareness of solar energy and photovoltaic facilities are constantly increasing with governmental support. In conclusion, it is considered that as improvements, operational effects should be increased through development of techniques, factors to reduce the effects in operating them due to insufficient management and installation should be removed and awareness of residents need to be improved through long-term plans, political support and education of the government.

본 연구는 현재 시행 중인 "녹색건축물 조성지원법"의 녹색건축 인증제도의 평가 기준에 대한 분석을 하였다. 아울러 2012년 11월부터 2015년 11월까지 3년간 녹색건축통합운영시스템(G-SEED)에서 인증 받은 총 78개의 건축물에 대한 분석을 하였다. 이 분석의 결과를 토대로, 현재 시행 중인 녹색건축 인증제도에 대해 네 가지의 논점을 도출하였다. 논점 1, 조경분야의 평가항목인 생태분야는 이산화탄소 저감에 확실한 성과를 보이는 항목이다. 이에 생태분야는 8개의 건축물에서 필수평가 항목으로 평가되어야 한다. 논점 2, 조경분야는 전문성이 매우 뛰어난 분야이다. 타 분야에서 조경분야를 평가한다는 것은 올바른 평가를 저해하는 요소이다. 그러므로 생태분야의 평가는 조경전문가에 의한 평가를 하여야 한다. 그리고 타 항목 중 "기존대지의 생태학적 가치"의 평가와 같은 조경분야와 밀접한 항목의 평가는 조경분야에서도 평가에 참여하여야 한다. 논점 3, 조경 식재에 의한 에너지 저감 및 온도저감의 우수성은 많은 선행연구에서 밝혀졌다. 이에 조경 식재의 에너지 저감에 대한 평가항목이 추가되어야 한다. 논점 4, 유지 관리분야에 수목관리항목이 신설되어야 한다. 2013년 "녹색건축조성지원법"이 제정 시행된 녹색건축인증제도는 건축물의 이산화탄소 저감을 위한 실효적인 제도임에 틀림없다. 이 법은 특별법의 성격으로 건축법의 우위에 있어, 건축물을 건축하기 위해서는 꼭 지켜야 하는 법이다. 이러한 법 체제 아래 건축분야에서는 이 법과 관련된 많은 연구 및 다양한 제품의 생산으로 건축의 또 다른 먹거리 창출에 기여하고 있다. 그러나 조경 분야에서는 "녹색건축조성지원법"에 대해 건축 분야에 비해 관심이 저조하였던 것이 주지의 사실이다. 녹색건축인증제도에 대한 조경분야의 지속적인 연구가 수행되어야 할 뿐만 아니라, 조경 산업계에서도 더욱 큰 관심을 가져 이와 관련된 제품의 생산 등으로 조경의 업역 확대가 이루어져야 할 것으로 사료된다.

실내에서 보내는 시간이 증가함에 따라, 쾌적한 실내환경에 대한 요구가 증가되고 있다. 또한, 새집증후군과 같은 문제들에 관심이 집중되면서 실내공기질에 관한 요구 역시 증가되고 있다. 정부에서는 이러한 요구에 따라 실내환경을 관리하기 위하여 다양한 정책 및 제도를 제정하였으며, 공공건물에서의 친환경제도 인증을 필수화하였다. 실내공기질과 관련된 인증제도는 크게 3가지로 도면기반으로 인증을 평가하는 건강친화형 주택건설기준과 녹색건축인증 그리고 측정정보 기반으로 인증을 평가하는 실내공기질 인증이 있다. 이중 도면기반으로 인증을 평가는 제도들을 업무의 비중 대비 과도한 업무량이 요구된다. 친환경인증업무를 수행하는 한 회사의 인터뷰 결과 평균 업무비중보다 2배 이상의 소요시간이 필요한 것으로 조사되었다. 이는 2D기반의 작업환경에서 면적에 관한 정보들을 일일이 수작업으로 측정하여 필요이상의 업무를 수행하고 있기 때문으로 분석된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 3D기반의 BIM모델을 이용한 실내공기질 평가 자동화 프로세스를 제시한다. 국제표준 포맷인 IFC 파일을 이용하여 필요한 면적정보 및 자재정보를 자동으로 추출하고 이를 모델에 적용하여 자동화하는 과정을 제시한다. 본 연구는 인증을 위해 필요한 업무시간을 단축하고 업무효율성을 높이는 것에 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

Companies build the factory automation system to improve management effectiveness and productivity as prime strategies for sustainable growth. But most companies undergo various trials and errors while carrying out the project without elaborate preparation stage for factory automation. In this study, we tried to verify what factors are critical to effectively building distribution automation system, which is a branch of factory automation system. A consulting model for setting up a Material Handling Automation System by utilizing the Stage-Gate Process, which is product development process was studied. 29 material handling automation projects carried out between the year 1990 to 2013 at K-Company were selected. Interviews with the project managers, operators and maintenance personnels, various records and current status of the projects were used as data for structural equations based on the Milan consulting model and existing researches of factory automation, CIM for material handling automation. Creating effective basis of production, material handling system and energy saving system with expert review, when preparing a material handling automation project, help promote the project planning thus contributing to the performance of the resulting system, which appears though rather weakly in our data. Also the effect of material handling automation can be enhanced through sufficient and effective links to the relevant environments such as production logistics management and automated warehouses. More detailed planning characteristics of project promotion or some time-series data of effective Material Handling Automation System could enhace furthur studies. We propose a consulting model for setting up an efficient material handling automation system.

세계 각국에서 에너지 문제를 해결하고 새로운 성장 동력을 발굴하기위해 스마트 그리드에 대한 관심이 증대되고 있으며 관련 기술 확보에 많은 노력을 기울이고 있다. 그 중 AMI(Advanced Metering Infrastructure)는 가장 먼저 구축되어야 하며 스마트 그리드의 핵심 요소로 주목 받고 있다. 우리나라에서도 제주도 스마트 그리드 실증단지에서 다양한 기술을 접목해 기술개발과 실증을 진행 중에 있으며 한국전력에서는 광대역 전력선 통신 기술을 중심으로 인프라 구축이 활발하게 진행 중에 있다. 전력선 통신 기술을 이용한 AMI 시스템은 별도의 통신회선을 구축하지 않고 전력공급 라인을 이용할 수 있어 전력회사 입장에서 이상적인 방법이나 통신을 위해 고려된 인프라가 아니므로 통신이 불가능한 지역이 발생한다. 본 논문은 Binary CDMA와 전력선통신 기술을 동시에 이용하여 AMI 시스템을 구축하기 위한 요구사항을 분석하고 Binary CDMA를 중심으로 기본 통신 프로토콜을 설계 하고, 네트워크 관리, 중계 기능을 구현하였다. 이를 통해 Ad-hoc 기술인 Binary CDMA 고유 기술을 AMI 시스템에 적용하기위한 방안을 도출하였으며 유선(전력선통신)/무선(Binary CDMA)을 동시에 활용할 수 있는 시스템을 구축할 수 있었다.
