This study describes to analyze variation of carbon dioxide gas concentration by experimental and theoretical method according to the using patterns of ventilation system in a model classroom. Concentration of $CO_2$ gas varied by the occupancy and the ventilation systems are operating or not. More than 850 CMH ventilation system can maintain $CO_2$ gas concentration lower than 1,000 ppm along the class time and can be adopted the government guideline. Theoretical modeling of the concentration was performed at well-mixed ideal condition. Delays of concentration decay were shown at each case compared to actual.

This paper is the analysis of thermal and fluid in solar concentration absorber with various tilt angle and opening ratio of absorber entrance. The purpose of this study is to develop optimum solar concentration absorber, and the parameters for the study are the opening ratio of absorber entrance and the tilt angle. The aspect ratio of absorber was fixed at 0.64, and opening ratio was changed from 0.1 to 1.0. The finite volume method with SIMPLE computational algorithm are used and analyzed the heat transfer in absorber inside walls.

In order to analyze the effect of meteorological elements on ozone concentration, we carried out cross-correlation of the elements with ozone concentraton, and time series analysis on them. As a result, it revealed that temperature, wind speed and humidity are not independent variables with ozone concentrations, and also, solar radiation and mixing height are the major elements that affect them. We developed models for ozone with solar radiation and mixing height as dependent variables to verify the effect of major meteorological elements. The predicted ozone concentration has strong correlation coefficients, So, We could conclude that we can predict ozone concentreation only with solar raidation and mixing height as dependents.

This paper presents deposition and characterizations of microcrystalline silicon$({\mu}c-Si:H)$ films prepared by hot wire chemical vapor deposition at substrate temperature below $300^{\circ}C$. The $SiH_{4}$ concentration$[F(SiH_{4})/F(SiH_{4})+F(H_{2})]$ is critical parameter for the formation of Si films with microcrystalline phase. At 6% of silane concentration, deposited intrinsic ${\mu}c-Si:H$ films shows sufficiently low dark conductivity and high photo sensitivity for solar cell applications. P-type ${\mu}c-Si:H$ films deposited by Hot-Wire CVD also shows good electrical properties by varying the rate of $B_{2}H_{6}$ to $SiH_{4}$ gas. The solar cells with structure of Al/nip ${\mu}c-Si:H$/TCO/glass was fabricated with single chamber Hot-Wire CVD. About 3% solar efficiency was obtained and applicability of HWCVD for thin film solar cells was proven in this research.

We have investigated the effect of forming gas annealing for Upgraded Metallurgical Grade (UMG)-silicon solar cell in order to obtain low-cost high-efficiency cell using post deposition anneal at a relatively low temperature. We have observed that high concentration hydrogenation effectively passivated the defects and improved the minority carrier lifetime, series resistance and conversion efficiency. It can be attributed to significantly improved hydrogen-passivation in high concentration hydrogen process. This improvement can be explained by the enhanced passivation of silicon solar cell with antireflection layer due to hydrogen re-incorporation. The results of this experiment represent a promising guideline for improving the high-efficiency solar cells by introducing an easy and low cost process of post hydrogenation in optimized condition.

We have experimented an actual solar water heating system acquiring real data for one year period. On the basis of the operation data, it is necessary to predict the system performance such as collector efficiency and solar fraction, and to analyze the economical efficiency for system optimal design. To estimate the performance of actual systems through simulation, valid modelling for components consisting of the system should be accompanied. The present study is focused on the modelling for load patterns and operating control conditions. We proposed two load models: concentration model which gathers real loads as a meaningful group and distribution model which disperses real loads with time. If grouping of the load distribution is suitable, the predicted values by the concentration model approaches to those by the distribution model close to actual load pattern apparently. As a result, both of them are in good agreement with those by experiment.

The solar evaporation method is one of the most important and popular salt manufecturing method in Korea. The rate of evaporation of sea water depends on a complex climate factors. Of these factors, the most important is solar radiation and in particular the extent to which it is absorbed in the brine. By the addition of suitable dyestuff, a further increase in absorption is obtained and can result in all the radiation entering the brine being made available as heat. "Solivap Green", one of several dyestuffs which have been suggested for accelerating solar evaporation, was tested in this experiment. The results of the experiment. 1. Increase the evaporation rate of brine up to 20-25%. 2. Elevate the temperature of brine 2-$4^{\circ}C$. higher than that of brine adding no dyestuff. 3. Optimum dyestuff concentration is 25-30 mg/L and allowable maximum concentration can not exceeded 1000 mg/$m^2$ (50 mg/L). 4. Addition of dyestuff does not cause the degradation of salt produced. 5. A conversion table which indicates the concentrations for various depths of brine was prepared for engineering purpose. 6. Absorption spectrum of the dyestuff was studies, but toxicological and structural studies for the dyestuff have not been done in this experiment.

The intermediate range of temperatures($100{\sim}300^{\circ}C$) which can be achieved with CPCs(Compound Parabolic Concentrators) without tracking device provides both economic and thermal advantages for solar collector design. The present paper summarizes critical design considerations for CPC with cylindrical absorber and its optical performance using ray tracing program. Concentration ratios vary as acceptance half angle, ratio of reflector height to aperture width and ratio of reflector area to aperture area. This effects showed that the concentration ratio was increased as acceptance angle but optimum ratio of reflector height to aperture width existed at critical value. As a result of ray tracing, solar ray losses was maximized at acceptance half angle and this problem was solved by increasing absorber tube diameter. The concentrating flux distribution on the absorber surface was uniform but peak flux existed.

In this report, Indium-free and Indium-reduced thin film materials for solar absorber were studied in order to search alternative materials for thin film solar cell. The films of $Cu_2ZnSnSe_4$ and $Cu_2ZnSnSe_2$ were deposited using mixed binary chalcogenides powders. From the film bulk analysis result, it is observed that Cu concentration is a function of substrate temperature as well as CuSe mole ratio in the target. Under optimized conditions, $Cu_2ZnSnSe_4$ and $Cu_2ZnSnSe_2$ thin films grow with strong (112), (220/204) and (312/116) reflections. Films are found to exhibit a high absorption coefficient of $10^4$ $cm^{-1}$. $Cu_2ZnSnSe_4$ film shows a 1.5 eV band gap. On the other side, an increasing of optical band gap from 1.0 eV to 1.25 eV ($CuInSnSe_2$) is found to be proportional with an increasing of Zn concentration. All films have a p-type semiconductor characteristic with a carrier concentration in the order of $10^{14}$ $cm^{-3}$, a mobility about $10^1$ $cm^{2{\cdot}-1.}S^{-1}$ and a resistivity at the range of $10^2-10^6$ ${\Omega}{\cdot}m$.

Daegu Solar Power Tower Plant of 200 kW thermal capacity was developed for the first time in Korea, 2011. Measurement of the heat flux distribution is essential to evaluate the solar energy concentrated by reflectors and to design a suitable receiver. The flux mapping technique, which uses a radiometer and a diffuse plate, is common for measurement of the heat flux distribution. Because the solar power tower plant has a wide concentration area, the flux mapping technique using a fixed diffuse plate is difficult to apply. Therefore, the flux distribution in the solar power tower plant should be measured by the flux mapping technique using a small moving bar. In this study, we measured flux distributions with the moving-bar system developed at the KIER solar furnace and evaluated its applicability for the solar power tower plant.
