The air temperature-reducing effects by irrigation reservoir in urban area was investigated at Ilwol Pond (IWP). Air temperature and humidity data were observed at 10minute interval from September 1th, 2008 to August 31th, 2009. Air temperature of IWP and Sumsung Apartment (SAT) were analyzed to examine air temperature-reducing effects by IWP in terms of diurnal and seasonal variation. As a result, the average air temperature difference between IWP and SAT was $0.6^{\circ}C$ and the nighttime shows more air temperature-reducing effects. The dominant air temperature-reducing effects by IWP occurred at fall night and summer daytime. However, the air temperature-reducing effects by IWP is lower to that by Arboretum (ARB).

Theory of the building heat transfer is generally limited to the heat flux to the surfaces of windows and walls, which influences the indoor climate of a building, in the field of architectural environmental engineering. While the heat flux from the buildings to their environment has been considered in the viewpoint of urban climate, its conventional theory have been rarely examined. The purpose of this study is to propose a building-urban heat transfer model for defining the relation between the building and the urban climate by extending the building heat transfer model. In this study, the extended building heat transfer model, where response factor method is used, is established on the urban space and the indoor space by the boundary of building envelopes. Computer simulation (HASP/ACLD) is conducted on the subjected urban area by the established building-urban heat transfer model. As a result it is logically proved that the short waves of solar radiation, which interact with long Waves of radiation from the buildings and the earth, increase the urban air temperature ana buildings largely influence on the urban climate.

Here we evaluated the effect of using water retentive pavement or WRP made from fly ash as material for main street in a real city block. We coupled computational fluid dynamics and pavement transport (CFD-PT) model to examine energy balance in the building canopies and ground surface. Two cases of 24 h unsteady analysis were simulated: case 1 where asphalt was used as the pavement material of all ground surfaces and case 2 where WRP was used as main street material. We aim to (1) predict diurnal variation in air temperature, wind speed, ground surface temperature and water content; and (2) compare ground surface energy fluxes. Using the coupled CFD-PT model it was proven that WRP as pavement material for main street can cause a decrease in ground surface temperature. The most significant decrease occurred at 1200 JST when solar radiation was most intense, surface temperature decreased by $13.8^{\circ}C$. This surface temperature decrease also led to cooling of air temperature at 1.5 m above street surface. During this time, air temperature in case 2 decreased by $0.28^{\circ}C$. As the radiation weakens from 1600 JST to 2000 JST, evaporative cooling had also been minimal. Shadow effect, higher albedo and lower thermal conductivity of WRP also contributed to surface temperature decrease. The cooling of ground surface eventually led to air temperature decrease. The degree of air temperature decrease was proportional to the surface temperature decrease. In terms of energy balance, WRP caused a maximum increase in latent heat flux by up to $255W/m^2$ and a decrease in sensible heat flux by up to $465W/m^2$.

Heat island phenomena in Chuncheon (Korea) were investigated using air temperature measured by automatic weather stations and temperature dataloggers located at rural and urban sites. Numerical simulation of the phenomena was performed using Weather Research and Forecasting Urban Canopy Model (WRF-UCM) and results were compared with the observation. The model was initialized with NCEP/FNL data. The horizontal resolution of the fine domain is 0.33 km. The results of observational analyses show that the intensity of heat island was significantly higher during the nighttime than during the daytime. The highest measured temperature difference between rural and urban site is $3.49^{\circ}C$ and average temperature difference varies between 1.4 and $1.9^{\circ}C$. Good agreement was found between the simulated and observed temperatures. However, significantly overestimated wind speed was found at the urban sites. The linear regression analysis between observed and simulated temperature shows high correlation coefficient 0.96 for urban and 0.94 for rural sites while for wind speed, a very low correlation coefficient was found, 0.30 and 0.55 respectively.

In urban area, inversion layer prevents air pollutants from being dispersed. To determine nocturnal inversion characteristics at SookMyung Girls' High School near high-rise residential commercial complex buildings in Seoul, air temperature and humidity data were observed at 10minute interval from December 1st, 2007 to May 2nd, 2008. Temperature-Humidity (T-H) sensors were installed at SMG (SookMyung_Ground) and SMR (SookMyung_Roof), and then these two data were compared, analyzed and examined to illustrate air temperature differences of SMG and SMR. After the analysis, the maximum nocturnal inversion was observed by $3.3^{\circ}C$ at 18:10 on December 26th 2007, at that time the weather condition was clear and weak wind. Nocturnal inversions began 2-3 hours before sunset and it reached maximum inversion just after sunset and continued through nighttime until sunrise or 1-2 hours after sunrise. In terms of seasonal variation nocturnal inversions occurred dominantly in March and April rather than winter season.

In this study, Urban Climate Simulation was performed by 3-Dimensional Urban Canopy Model. The characteristics of urban climate were analyzed combining artificial land coverage, building size, heat production from the air conditioning and topographic conditions as physical variables which affects urban climate characteristics. The results are as follows. (1) The aspects of the urban climatal change is derived to be related to the combination of the building coverage ratio, building height and shading area. According to the building height, the highest temperature was increased by $2.1^{\circ}C$ from 2-story to 5-story building and the absolute humidity by 2.1g/kg maximum and the wind velocity by 1.0m/s was decreased from 2-story to 20-story building. (2) Whole heat generation was influenced by the convective sensible heat at the lower building height and by the artificial heat generation at the higher one over 20-story building influence to some extent of the building coverage ratio. The effect of the altitude is not more considerable than the other variables as below $1^{\circ}C$ of the air temperature. In the last, deriving the combination of building coverage and building height is needed to obtain effectiveness of the urban built environment planning at the point of the urban climate. These simulation results need to be constructed as DB which shows urban quantitative thermal characters by the urban physical structure. These can be quantitative base for suggesting combinations of the building and urban planning features at the point of the desirable urban thermal environment as well as analyzing urban climate phenomenon.

In this study, the high-resolution numerical simulations considering detailed anthropogenic heat, albedo, emission and roughness length are analyzed by using single layer Urban Canopy Model (UCM) in Weather Research Forecast (WRF). For this, improved urban parameter data for Seoul Metropolitan Area (SMA) was collected from global data. And then the parameters were applied to WRF-UCM model after it was processed into 2-dimensional topographical data. The 6 experiments were simulated by using the model with each parameter and verified against observation from Automated Weather Station (AWS) and flux tower for the temperature and sensible heat flux. The data for sensible heat flux of flux towers on Jungnang and Bucheon, the temperature of AWS on Jungnang, Gangnam, Bucheon and Neonggok were used as verification data. In the case of summer, the improvement of simulation by using detailed anthropogenic heat was higher than the other experiments in sensible flux simulation. The results of winter case show improved in all simulations using each advanced parameters in temperature and sensible heat flux simulation. Improvement of urban parameters in this study are possible to reflect the heat characteristics of urban area. Especially, detailed application of anthropogenic heat contributed to the enhancement of predicted value for sensible heat flux and temperature.

The purpose of this study is to apply pressurized plenum under floor air conditioning system to office areas to understand characteristics of indoor thermal environment based on forms of diffusers. For doing this, the author conducted experiment of module measurement, and based on the results, analyzed indoor temperature distribution and velocity distribution based on direction of diffusion by using Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD), and estimated the Predicted Mean Vote(PMV) of residents based on forms of diffusers to present the optimal air conditioning of the pressurized plenum under floor air conditioning system in heating. The results of this study are as follows. First, as for forms of diffusers, distributed diffusers rather than conical and grill diffusers were favorable in maintaining $24^{\circ}C$, the established temperature in heating, were active in velocity flowing, and were wide in a radius of diffusion. Second, as for position of pressurizing, the difference between upper and lower temperature was wider in center, lateral, and dispersed pressurizing (in order). As for velocity distribution, the velocity was more increased in lateral, center, and dispersed pressurizing(in order), indicating that dispersed pressurizing maintained uniform thermal environment. Third, as for diffusion direction, mixed direction showed less difference between upper and lower temperature and the difference in velocity between center and lateral part was 0.01m/1, indicating that it maintained uniform thermal environment. Fourth, as for the PMV of residents based on the forms of diffusers, the dispersed type showed(+) values above (0) when applied variably based on the position of diffuser, presenting thermal feeling of "being comfortable" to residents.

본 연구에서는 도시 토지이용과 열 환경의 관계를 파악하기 위하여, 인천시에서 토지이용이 다른 곳에서 기온을 측정하였고, 지난 40년간 토지이용과 기온의 변화를 파악하였으며, 위성영상 자료를 이용하여 토지이용과 온도의 관계에 대하여 연구하였다. 2014년 8월 19일부터 21일까지 산림지, 경작지 (논), 나지 (운동장), 시가화지 (아스팔트 도로)에서 온도를 측정한 결과에서 시가화지역이 가장 기온이 높았고 산림지가 가장 낮았다. 인천시에서 1975년부터 2014년까지 40년간 기온은 약 $1.4^{\circ}C$ ($0.035^{\circ}C$/년)이 상승하였다. 지난 40년간 인천시의 토지이용 유형에서 시가화건조지, 나지, 초지가 증가하였고 경작지, 습지, 산림지가 감소하였다. Landsat 위성영상을 이용하여 추출한 지표면 온도 (LST)와 정규식생지수 (NDVI), 정규시가지화지수 (NDBI) 간에 상관관계를 보였다. 지표면 온도는 NDVI가 높은 곳에서 지면온도가 낮았고, NDBI가 높은 곳에서 지면 온도가 높았다. 따라서 도시의 열섬효과를 완화하고 열 환경을 개선하기 위해서는 녹지, 습지, 농경지의 토지이용을 보전하고 복원하는 것이 중요하다고 판단된다.
