  • The recent climate change is exacerbating the external thermal environment and increasing the amount of energy used in building. Energy Plus was used to evaluate low energy technology performance of buildings responding to climate change. The test types of basic building(control) and evaporative mist system + basic building(EMS), and the analysis results of each type are compared. Energy performance evaluation result, Cooling peak load were EMS reduction compared to control is about 9%. Annual cooling load per unit area were EMS reduction compared to control is about 17%. Annual energy use per unit area were EMS reduction compared to control is about 10%. Therefore, the effect of the evaporative cooling system is considered to be good through energy reduction technology of building, according to the amount and distance of the evaporative mist system in the future research on building energy performance evaluation should be carried out.

  • A structural integrity evaluation program (STEP) was developed for the high temperature reactor design evaluation according to the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (ASME B&PV), Section III, Rules for Construction of Nuclear Facility Components, Division 5, High Temperature Reactors, Subsection HB. The program computerized HBB-3200 (the design by analysis procedures for primary stress intensities in high temperature services) and Appendix T (HBB-T) (the evaluation procedures for strain, creep and fatigue in high temperature services). For evaluation, the material properties and isochronous curves presented in Section II, Part D and HBB-T were computerized for the candidate materials for high temperature reactors. The program computerized the evaluation procedures and the constants for the weldment. The program can generate stress/temperature time histories of various loads and superimpose them for creep damage evaluation. The program increases the efficiency of high temperature reactor design and eliminates human errors due to hand calculations. Comparisons that verified the evaluation results that used the STEP and the direct calculations that used the Excel confirmed that the STEP can perform complex evaluations in an efficient and reliable way. In particular, fatigue and creep damage assessment results are provided to validate the operating conditions with multiple types of cycles.

  • 정부는 최근 그린홈 100만호 사업을 중심으로 각종 신재생에너지 보급률 향상을 도모하는 많은 프로그램을 기획하여 현재 약 12개의 신재생 에너지 보급지원 프로그램과 R&D 프로그램을 운영하고 있다. 그러나 현재 국내 신재생에너지 정책 및 프로그램은 차후 개선 및 체계적인 운영을 위한 조직적인 프로그램 평가 체계를 갖추고 있지 않으며 평가 기관이나 평가 주기 등 평가에 필요한 기본적인 합의와 법제적 배경 역시 미비한 상황으로 신재생에너지 프로그램의 평가 제반 시스템에 대한 근본적 고민이 필요한 시점이라고 볼 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 미국 DOE(Department of Energy)산하 EERE(Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy)의 신재생에너지 보급사업평가체계를 분석하여 EERE 프로그램 평가 방법의 국내 적용 가능성을 검토해 보았다. EERE는 미국의 에너지 효율화 및 신재생에너지 전담 사무국으로 10개의 에너지효율화 및 신재생에너지 연방정부 프로그램을 운영하고 있으며 Strategic Management system을 통해 효율적인 프로그램 관리를 시도하고 있다. 특히 General program evaluation Guideline에서는 표준화된 세부 평가 방법론을 제시하여 정례적 혹은 일회적 평가를 시행하고 있는데 이 세부 평가 방법들은 프로그램의 특성에 따라 프로그램을 운영하고 프로그램의 존속 및 개선여부를 결정하는데 결정적인 도움을 주고 있어 차후 국내에서 시행되고 있는 신재생에너지 프로그램의 정성적/정량적인 평가를 시행하는 많은 시사점을 제공할 것으로 기대된다.

  • Renewable energy resources such as wind, wave, solar, micro hydro, tidal and biomass etc. are becoming importance stage by stage because of considering effect of the environment. Solar energy is one of the most successful sources of renewable energy for the production of electrical energy following wind energy. And, the solar/photovoltaic cell generators can not make two-state model as conventional generators, but should be modeled as multi-state model due to solar radiation random variation. The method of obtaining reliability evaluation index of solar cell generators is different from the conventional generators. This paper presents a basic study on reliability evaluation of power system considering solar cell generators with multi-states.

  • Technology evaluation is one of the key issues in discussions on the development of evaluation methods. This paper deals with some methods for the evaluation of new energy technologies, which were appraised by MAUT from various outlooks: economics, environment, and resource saving. MAUT is considered to be the proper method for evaluating the next generation energy technology, since it can evaluate alternatives that comprise basic criteria. This paper analyzes a priority order of 13 new energy technologies selected by groups of energy technology experts through two steps. Converted utility technology shows the highest value in economics.

  • Daylighting in building is very important as it has an effect on work performance as well as on their visual health. It is also regarded as a good energy conservation measure in saving energy used for lighting. There are many daylighting evaluation tools such as empirical equations, tables, nomograms, diagrams, protractors, computer simulation, scale models. This study conducted initial daylight measurements to analyze luminous environment in classrooms of elementary school and comparative analysis on three daylighting evaluation tools, such as daylight factor calculation formula, the graphic method with BRE Protractor and computer simulation with Adeline 3.0. It is found that the computer simulation tool produced the closest result to actual measurements of luminous environment in elementary school classroom, and the other simplified tools made appropriate results so that they can be used in the early stage of daylighting design process.

  • To reduce the construction cost and enhance the safety of sodium cooled liquid metal reactors, various kinds of new design concepts were evaluated using the KALIMER operation condition. The required equipment sizes were set for plant electricity output to be similar to that of KALIMER. The evaluations were made focusing on the plant performance and implementation practicality. Each design concept was evaluated for the concept itself and design impacts to interfacing systems. Through the evaluation of the concepts, it was found that the most favorable design concept is the integrated steam generator with forced convection using lead bismuth as the intermediate heat transfer fluid between the primary sodium tube and feed water/steam tube in the steam generator.
