This study investigated the Present traditional Korean farmhousing and Past housing (from 1928~1956) based on a survey of 23 Korean women from Kyongki Province. It was primarily concerned with a Comparison of the present and past housing ; the size and plan of the house and finishing materials of Anbang(The masters bedroom : ondol) and the kind of furniture. lighting and heating in the Anbang. I was also interested in identifying the socio-demographic and physical variables that influenced the housing, past and Present. Bibliographical studios. cultural approaches and field surveys with tape recordings and questionnaires were used to collect the data. The results showed that the former Housing(averag ; 54 years ago) was very poor. Most homes lacked sufficient space. furniture and experienced a shortage of fuel. The most decisive difference from the present was the large family size. It would be beneficial to make a similar study in both the southern and northern regions of Korea.

This work discusses the numerical analysis, the design and experimental test of the SMA (Shape Memory Alloy) actuator along with its capabilities and limitations. Convection heating and cooling using water actuate the SMA element of the actuator. The fuel such as propane, having a high energy density, is used as the energy source for the SMA actuator in order to increase power and energy density of the system, and thus in order to obviate the need for electrical power supplies such as batteries. The system is composed of a pump, valves, bellows, a heater (burner), control unit and a displacement amplification device. The actuation frequency is compared with the prediction obtained from numerical analysis. For the designed SMA actuator system, the results of numerical analysis were utilized in determining design parameters and operating conditions.

Of all the ways that energy is consumed within textile industry, few are as high energy-expending as dyeing process. The energy consumption in dyeing process amounts to 77% of total fuel consumption, 54% of total electricity use. A technical development in terms of efficient saving energy and time as well is required in the process of dyeing textiles. Recently, dyeing experts are investigating new technologies can conserve energy grafting into microwaves, radio waves, infrared lights, etc. Dyeing industry in Korea, however, the research related to energy conservation has been rarely conducted. Accordingly, this study aims to examine the possibility where especially microwaves could be applied to reduce the energy use and enhance dyeing process skill. This study performs the experiment in which microwave is employed as heating condition in dyeing and figures out as color yield being promoted, bathochromic effect would be achieved. Applying microwaves in dyeing process is expected to lower the carbon emission, energy and time wasted, ultimately exalt economic efficiency.

Lately, minimize of the heat loss and fuel consumption when heating so that suggested ways to reduce carbon emissions as a measures to reduce for increase of carbon emission and find a way to apply highly insulated concrete as the measures. In this study, as a comparative experiments on heat conduction of concrete with lots of porous, thermal conductivity of concrete using foamed, polystyrene beads, lightweight aggregates, air-entraining agent and concrete using crushed stone measure and thermal conductivity of concrete with lots of porous compare and evaluate.

This study is intended to analyze the appropriate scope for 9.9MW biomass cogeneration, feasibility and sensitivity according to changing market situation. In the study, the heat load is classified into three types to predict heat sales and find out the appropriate scope of thermal business that is operated in CHP 34.42 Gcal/h, PLBwg 70 Gcal/h of cogeneration. the feasibility is estimated based on internal rate of return (IRR) and net present value(NPV). the sensitivity is analyzed in terms of biomass fuel cost, unit price of heating cost, investment cost, SMP unit price and REC unit price.

Recently, heating using oil and gas has been continuously replaced by that using midnight power in home, due to increase of oil price. Therefore, midnight power apparatus has been more and more spreading. However, cost of midnight power services is increasing because high fuel cost of generation facilities by existing power generation mix are charge of midnight power services. This paper analyzes trends about rapidly increasing midnight power in winter, and evaluate load pattern and supply cost of midnight power. Also, this study proposes rate direction of midnight power according to introduction of competitiveness system with B/C evaluation of midnight power cost.

A study on microstructures of welds for Zircaloy-4 sheath end closure by the resistance upset welding methods was carried out. Two upset welding process variations such as magnetic farce and multi-impulse resistance welding were used. Grain size and microhardness across welds were analysed in terms of welding parameters. Magnetic farce resistance weld with one cycle of unbalanced mode has smaller upset length and $\alpha-grain$ size in heat affected zone than those of multi-impulse resistance weld because of lower heat input and shorter welding time. Heat affected zone formed by two upset resistance welding variations revealed fine Widmanstatten structure or martensitic ${\alpha}'$ structure due to the high heating rate and foster cooling rate. Magnetic force resistance welds showed recrystallized grains before grain growth, whereas multi-impulse resistance welds showed full grain growth.

국민소득이 빠르게 증가함에 따라 1990년대 이후 가정용 난방연료의 소비구조 역시 크게 변화하고 있다. 본 연구는 에너지 및 교통수요분석에 많이 사용되는 Multinomial Probit 모형을 이용하여 가정용 난방연료의 선택 행태를 분석하였다. 모형의 추정방법으로는 베이지안(Baysian) 방법론에 의한 Gibbs Sampling기법 (McColluch et al., 2000)을 이용하여 Multinomial probit 모형에서 선택대안이 3개 이상일 경우 발생할 수 있는 추정상의 어려움을 극복하였다. 한국가구패널조사(KHPS) 자료를 이용하여 서울과 경기도 대도시 지역을 대상으로 분석한 결과, 석유와 천연가스가 연탄에 비해 더 밀접한 상호 대체관계를 가지고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 소득이 높은 가구일수록 천연가스에 대한 선호도가 더 높은 것으로 나타나서 향후 공급망 확대에 따라 난방연료용 가스 소비가 더욱 늘어날 것으로 예상된다.

This study was performed to investigate the performance of heat recovery device attached to exhaust gas funnel connected to combustion chamber of greenhouse heating system. The experiment heat recovery system is mainly consisted of LPG combustion chamber and two heat recovery units; unit-A is attached directly to the exhaust gas funnel, and unit-B is connected with unit-A. Heat recovery performance was evaluated by estimating total energy amount by using enthalpy difference between two measurement points together with mass flow rate of gas and/or air passing through each heat recovery unit depending on 5 different flow rates controlled by voltage meter. The results of this experimental study, such as heat exchange behavior of supply air pipes and exhaust air passages crossing the pipes, pressure drop between inlet and outlet, heat recovery performance of exchange unit, etc., will be used as fundamental data for designing optimum heat recovery device to be used for fuel saving purpose by reducing heat loss amounts mostly wasted outside of greenhouse through funnels.

The goal of this study is to experimentally observe the autoignition phenomena of a diesel/1-butanol mixture droplet in ambient pressure and $700^{\circ}C$ condition. A volume ratio of 1-butanol in the fuel was set to 25, 50 and 75%. A single droplet was installed at the tip of fine thermocouple, and the electric furnace dropped down to make elevated temperature condition. Droplet behavior during the experiment could be divided into 3 stages including droplet heating, puffing and autoignition/combustion. Puffing process intensively observed for the case of 1-butanol volume ratio of 25 and 50%, but did not occur at 75%. Increase of 1-butanol volume ratio hindered rise of the droplet temperature and delayed ignition. In addition, puffing process also affected on autoignition, so the ignition delay of 1-butanol volume ratio of 50% was became longer than that of 75% case.
