The noise in apartment buildings are major factor that determine the quality of indoor noise environment. Particularly, the noise from children's running footsteps and plumbing noise have caused the residents who live in decrepit apartment houses to uncomfortable environment. And as time go by, sound performance are getting worse according to the aging of the facilities. So this study deals with the plans to improve the sound performance of decrepit apartment house. To compare the noise reduction, we measured the heavy-weight impact sound level and plumbing noise level before and after changes the measurement conditions. As the results of measurements, the heavy-weight impact sound level were decreased when stiffness reinforcement were installed on slab. Especially the sound level were decreased 2.1-7.6dB in 50-80Hz of low frequency range. Instead of PVC pipe system, cast iron pipe and triple elbow drain pipe systems were installed. Noise level were decreased 15dB(A) in 250Hz. Noise level of pipe system's on the slab is less than under slab one. On the contrary water saving stool showed increasing the noise level.

시설재배지는 노지에 비하여 상대적으로 시비량이 많아 토양의 염류집적이 우려되고 EC가 높아지는 경우 양분과 수분의 흡수가 저해되며 일부 양분은 비유효태로 존재하게 되어 작물에 의한 영양소의 흡수가 저해된다. 본 연구는 연작으로 인하여 염류집적이 발생한 시설하우스 토양을 대상으로 50 cm 깊이에 PVC 유공배수관 (${\phi}10cm$)을 암거배수로 설치함으로써 토양염류를 적정수준으로 제어하고자 수행되었다. 토양의 염류제거 효과를 pH, EC, 양이온 등의 화학성 변화와 작물생육에 근거하여 판정하였다. 유공 암거배수관 설치 후 2년 동안 토양의 화학성을 분석한 결과 EC는 무처리구에서 $3.86-4.53dS\;m^{-1}$이었으나 유공 암거배수관 설치구에서는 $1.42-2.88dS\;m^{-1}$을 나타내어 유공 암거배수관 설치가 토양의 EC를 약 2배까지 감소시킴을 알 수 있었다. 유공 암거배수관 처리구 및 무처리구의 pH는 각각 pH 6.9-7.3 및 pH 7.2-7.5로 나타나 처리구가 다소 낮았으나 시설하우스 토양의 pH에 비하여 전반적으로 높은 수준이었다. 또한 토양의 pH와 양이온치환용량 사이에는 $CEC=17.107{\times}pH-106.2$ ($r^2=0.759^{**}$)의 상관관계를 나타내었다. 상추/상추/쑥갓을 재배한 후 토양의 EC를 깊이별로 조사한 결과 무처리구에서는 0-10, 11-20, 21-30, 31-40, 41-50 cm 깊이에서 각각 3.45, 3.47, 3.03, 2.93, $2.28dS\;m^{-1}$로 나타나 심층으로 갈수록 EC가 낮아졌으나 유공 암거배수관을 설치한 처리구에서는 2.43 2.52, 2.28. 4.00, $4.23dS\;m^{-1}$로 심층으로 갈수록 EC가 증가하였다. 이는 유공관 설치 시 염류가 집적된 표층과 비교적 염류농도가 낮은 심층의 토양이 상호 혼합되었기 때문으로 판단되었다. 토양깊이별 치환성 양이온의 농도 변화를 조사한 결과 표층에 존재하는 함량에 대한 비율로 보면 Mg > Ca > K 순으로 하양이동성이 큰 것으로 나타났다. 유공 암거배수관 설치에 대한 작물 재배시험에서 상추를 정식하고 15일 후 생존율은 98.2%로 나타나 무처리구의 86.6%에 비해 생존율이 11,4% 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 상추의 생육상황을 평가하기 위해 줄기의 지제부직경을 조사한 결과 무처리구는 12.9 mm이었으나 유공 암거배수관 처리구의 경우 13.7 mm로 증가하여 직물생육에 긍정적인 영향을 주는 것으로 평가되었다. 이상의 결과로부터 염류가 집적된 시설재배지 토양의 심토에 암거배수관을 설치할 경우 표토의 집적된 염류를 지하부위로 용탈시켜 토양의 EC를 낮춰주고 작물의 생육과 수량을 증가함을 알 수 있었다.

우리나라의 전국 주요 시설재배지에 있는 비닐하우스 343동을 대상으로 시설내 공기의 아황산($SO_2$)가스 농도를 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 하우스내 공기중 아황산($SO_2$)가스 농도는 가온하우스내 농도와 무가온 하우스농도가 유사하나 가온 하우스에서는 0.8ppm이상의 농도가 검출되었다. 2. 아황산가스는 고추재배지에서 화훼류나 오이, 토마토 재배지 보다 농도가 높고 온도가 높은 주간이 야간보다 높은 농도가 검출되었다. 3. 가온하우스의 아황산가스의 유출은 온풍기의 파손 부위와 연돌의 이음쇄 부위이며, 연돌을 통해 외부에 배출된 아황산가스가 공기 흡입으로 재유입되는 경우도 있다. 4. 환기를 하지 않은 하우스는 아황산가스 농도가 0.6ppm이나 동일한 조건에서 환기를 한 것은 0.2ppm으로 낮았다.

It has been noted, in case of the apartments in collective form, the drainage noise from cleaning of toilet causes many problems in the basement and adjacent rooms, mainly hampering the pleasant housing environment. The problems are increasingly raised by civil complaints with the public offices. Therefore, if the drainage noise generates when wash out of toilet bowl is grasped how the characteristics change according to the sorts of drainpipe, it is considered that the establishment of an effective sound insulation countermeasure could be possible when a civil petition against the drainage noise of apartment house is submitted hereafter. On such viewpoint, this study measured and analyzed the characteristics of drainage noise per the type of drainage pipe, according to KS A ISO $1996-1{\sim}3$, with the horizontal branch pipe and riser pipes in the drainage noise experiment chamber which has the characteristics of the anechoic room. In the result, the pipe type with excellent noise reduction function. The result of this study is considered to become available as fundamental data, to take actions on reduction of drainage noise of the ceiling piping method.

Supercritical water has great potential as a coolant for nuclear reactor. Its use will lead to higher thermal efficiency of Rankine cycle. However, in certain conditions heat transfer may get deteriorated which may lead to undesirable high clad surface temperature. It is necessary to estimate the operating conditions in which heat transfer deterioration (HTD) will take place, so as to establish thermal margins for safe reactor operation. In the present work, the heat flux corresponding to onset of HTD for vertically upward flow of supercritical water in a pipe is obtained over a wide range of system parameters, namely pressure, mass flux, and pipe diameter. This is done by performing large number of simulations using an in-house CFD code, which is especially developed and validated for this purpose. The identification of HTD is based on observance of one or more peak/s in the computed wall temperature profile. The existing correlations for predicting the onset of HTD are compared against the results obtained by present simulations as well as available sets of experimental data. It is found that the prediction accuracy of the correlation proposed by Dongliang et al. is best among the existing correlations.

This study investigated the effects of pipe network materials and distance on system performance utilizing unused energy sources in large-scale horticulture facility. For this, the modeling was performed with a 100 m long and 100 m wide rectangular shaped glass house having an area of 1ha ($10,000m^2$) using EnergyPlus software. The heat sources considered were air source, geothermal heat, power plant waste heat, sea water heat, and river water. The temperature variation of the fluid with regard to pipe material and distance from the heat source and the resultant heat pump electricity consumptions were calculated. It turned out that the fluid temperature reaching the heat pump increased as the distance from the heat source increased in case of sea water and river water, which have higher temperatures than the surrounding soil, improving the heat pump efficiency. It was vice versa in case of the power plant waste heat. In addition, pipe material of PVC showed the smallest effect on the system performance variation due to the lowest thermal conductivity, compared to PB and HDPE.

In this study, an in-house program to predict steady state operation of micro gas turbines is constructed using MATLAB. The program consists of two parts: design and off-design simulations. The program is fully modular in its structure, and performance of each component (compressor, combustor, turbine, recuperative heat exchanger and pipe elements) is calculated in a separate calculation module using mass and energy balances as well as models for off-design characteristics. The off-design modules of compressor and turbine use performance maps, which are program inputs. The off-design operation of a micro gas turbine under development was predicted by the program. The prediction results were compared with those by commercial software, and the validity of the in-house program was confirmed.

The purpose of this research is to analyze the characteristics of flow rate distribution in hot-water piping networks in the apartment building. A 14-story apartment house was selected as a sample building and analyzed numerically by Hardy-Cross method. Two different piping networks, one has three vertical zones and the other of a single zone with automatic balancing valves, were compared. Some of research results are as follows; As the temperature of supply hot-water increases, the flow rate of it does by buoyancy effect, but this effect is not found in the piping network with automatic balancing valves. Non-uniformity in hot-water flow distributions to all stories in the piping system of single vertical zone can be completely reformed by the installation of either manually operated or automatic balancing valves in every story.
