  • Gas sensors that operate at room temperature have been extensively studied because of sensor stability, lift time, and power consumption. To design effective room-temperature gas sensors, various nanostructures, such as nanoparticles, nanotubes, nanodomes, or nanofibers, are utilized because of their large-surface-to-volume ratio and unique surface properties. In addition, two-dimensional materials, including MoS2, SnS2, WS2, and MoSe, and ultraviolet-activated methods have been studied to develop ideal room-temperature gas sensors. Herein, a brief overview of state-of-the-art research on room-temperature gas sensors and their sensing properties, including nanostructured materials, two-dimensional materials, the ultraviolet-activated method, and ionic-activated gas sensors, is provided.

  • In this study, the operation strategy of the radiant floor cooling is evaluated in terms of indoor environmental conditions and energy consumption through simulations using the TRNSYS comparing the existing cooling operation. The operation strategy during continuously operated for cooling is proposed that a representative room had additional equipments and other rooms were operated with only a radiant floor cooling system and that system and control method for cooling are varied with period while intermittently operated for cooling. Specifically, when there are no people in the room, rooms were operated by only radiant floor cooling system using cooling storage and when people are occupied, rooms were operated by dehumidification and supplementary cooling device with radiant floor cooling system. The results of this study show that proposed operation strategy can stably maintain the set room air temperature and can reduce the energy consumption compared to the existing cooling method during continuously operated for cooling. While intermittently operated for cooling, the difference of set room air temperature by proposed operation strategy does not happen, satisfying comfort standards and the radiant floor cooling can expect to supply stable electric power because of decreasing demand for peak electric power of energy consumption.

  • The present study has been directed at developing thermal models to investigate the dynamic behavior of a solar cooling system including an absorption chiller, solar collectors, a hot water storage tank, a fan coil unit, and the air-conditioned space. The operation of the system was simulated for 8 hours in two different operation modes. In the mode 1, the system operated without any capacity control.0 the mode 2, an auxiliary boiler supplied heat to the generator if hot water temperature became lower than a certain value. Moreover, the mass flow rate of hot water to the generator was controlled by comparing the instantaneous room air temperature with the design value. The variation of temperature and concentration in the system components and that of heat transfer rates in the system were obtained for both modes of operation. It was found that the room temperature was maintained near the desired value in the mode 2 by supplying auxiliary heat or controlling the mass flow rate of hot water, while the deviation of room temperature was quite great in the mode 2.

  • Magnetotransport is a prerequisite to realization of electronic operation of spintronic devices and it would be more useful if realized at room temperature. The effects of Be codoping on GaMnAs on magnetotransport were investigated. Mn flux was varied for growth of precipitated GaMnAs layers under a Be flux for degenerate doping via low-temperature molecular beam epitaxy. Magnetotransport as well as ferromagnetism at room temperature were realized in the precipitated GaAs:(Mn,Be) layers. Codoping of Be was shown to promote formation of MnGa clusters, and annealing process further stabilized the cluster phases. The room-temperature magnetic properties of the layers originate from the ferromagnetic clusters of MnGa and MnAs embedded in GaAs. The degenerately doped metallic GaAs matrix allowed the visualization of the magnetotransport through anomalous Hall effect.

  • This paper presents transconductance (g$\_$m/( characteristics of GaAs MESFET's at high temperatures ranging from room temperature to 350$\^{C}$. GaAs MESFET of 0.3x750[㎛] gate dimension has been used to obtain the experimental data. Gate to source voltage(V$\_$GS/) has been controlled to obtain the temperature dependent characteristics for maximum transconductance g$\_$mmax/ of the device. Furthermore g$\_$mmax/ and expected g$\_$m/ have been traced with temperatures ranging from room temperature to 350$\^{C}$ also by compensating for C$\_$GS/ to maintain the optimum operation of the device. From the results, V$\_$GS/decreases as the operating temperature increases for optimum operation of the transconductance. Finally V$\_$GS/ has been optimized to trace g$\_$mmax/ and enhances the decreased g$\_$m/ with different temperatures.

  • Purpose: The study aimed to evaluate the changes of body temperature and to identify the factors related to changes during surgery in burned patients. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted by reviewing the medical records of 439 adult burned patients who had a surgery under general anesthesia at the Burn Center of a university hospital. Results: After surgery, body temperature of the burned patients declined from $36.6^{\circ}C$ to $35.2^{\circ}C$; 52.2% were hypothermia. There were significant differences in the changes of body temperature according to the participants' characteristics including American society of anesthesiologists physical status, type of burn injury, total burn surface area, range of exposure, operation time, anesthesia time, amount of fluid, blood transfusion, use of tourniquet, and the method of warming therapy. Factors that influence the temperature changes were total burn surface area (${\beta}=0.26$), operation time (${\beta}=0.25$), amount of fluid (0.20), and warming therapy including 'Room temperature setting + Heated circuit + Hot line'(${\beta}=0.09$) and 'Room temperature setting+one of others'(${\beta}=0.08$). Conclusion: Burned patients experienced a decrease of their body temperature during surgery despite of warming therapy. A nursing protocol is needed to provide an appropriate warming therapy based on their characteristics in burned patients.

  • 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%.
