Effects of the number of spans, orientation and latitude on the transmissivities of direct and diffuse solar radiation in multispan glasshouse were analyzed using a computer simulation model (Kim and Lee, 1997). The number of spans did not affect the transmissivity of diffuse solar radiation, ranging 60∼61%. The transmissivities of direct solar radiation were 55∼64% for E-W orientation and 47∼70% for N-S orientation in ten multispan glasshouse. There was no effect of the latitude on the transmissivity of direct solar radiation in domestic regions. Differences in the transmissivity of direct solar radiation between single-span and multispan glasshouse were significant for E-W orientation during winter season; however, those were relatively small for N-S orientation throughout the year. Transmissivity of direct solar radiation decreased with the increasing number of spans for E-W glasshouse, whereas those for N-S glasshouse was hardly affected by the number of spans.

Without pesticide applications, mass-trapping by sex pheromone was successful to control Spodoptera litura (Fabricius) in a large scale tomato glasshouse (10,000 $m^2$) at a low cost of 60 won/$m^2$. Pheromone traps were placed both inside and outside of the glasshouse. Inside the glasshouse traps were installed in a regular space, one trap per 500 $m^2$, to catch the moths that were present in the glasshouse, and traps were also set outside of the glasshouse, at intervals of ca. 20 m, to prevent the moths from invading the glasshouse. In the experiment, more than 400 S. litura were captured per trap.

A simulation model for the analysis of the transmissivity of direct and diffuse solar radiation In glasshouse was developed. This model would be applicable to investigate the influences of time of year, orientation and slope of glasshouse, dimensions of the frames used, and latitude of the site on the transmissivity of direct and diffuse solar radiation in single-span or multispan glasshouse. The transmissivity of diffuse solar radiation was 60.4％ for the single-span glass-house. It was independent of both orientation and time of year, During the winter season, the transmissivity of direct solar radiation was 67~69％ for the E-W orientation single-span glasshouse, which was 14~16％ higher than that for the S-N orientation. Oppositely the transmissivity of direct solar radiation for the S-N orientation was higher than that for the E-W orientation. during the autumn season. There was no influence of the latitude In the country on the transmissivity of direct solar radiation.

Judicious control of high temperature is the most important task for a successful intensive - cultivation in greenhouses during the hot summer. Therefore, the climatological data at 31 locations in Korea were calculated using the modified model equation for ventilated in glasshouses during summer. Furthermore, the adequate number of air- changes or frequency of ventilation was estimated based on temperature settings, which is considered to be more active means of controlling summer glasshouse temperatures, was investigated. The major results can be summarized as follows: Forced ventilation of one air change per minutes was effective in maintaining the maximum air temperature below 35$^{\circ}C$ in the glasshouse haying 40% shading. It was impossible, however, to maintain air temperature below 3$0^{\circ}C$ in 40% shaded glasshouse with forced ventilation only.

Glasshouse heating package technologies to improve energy usage efficiency in winter were developed. Heating package was composed of the ground water source heat pump with heating capacity of 105kW, the aluminum multi-layer thermal curtain with six layers of different materials and the root zone local heater with XL pipes of ${\phi}20mm$. Venlo type glasshouse($461m^2$) with the heating package was compared with the same type and area control glasshouse with the light oil boiler, the usual non-woven fabric thermal curtain with respect to the glasshouse inside temperature, relative humidity, crop growth, and heating energy consumption. The results of test in paprika cultivation glasshouses showed that the air temperature inside glasshouse with aluminum multi-layer thermal curtain was maintained $2.2^{\circ}C$ higher than that of control glasshouse in un-heating night time and the temperature in bed with root zone local heating was $4.7^{\circ}C$ higher than that in bed without local heating. Average heating coefficient of performance(COP) of the ground water source heat pump used in paprika cultivation was 3.7 and the glasshouse inside temperature was maintained at $21^{\circ}C$ of heating set up temperature. The heating energy consumptions per 10a were measured at 14,071L of light oil and 364kWh of electric power for the control glasshouse and 35,082kWh for the glasshouse applied heating package. As results, the heating cost of the glasshouse applied heating package was 87 percent lower than that of control glasshouse. The growths of paprika in glasshouses of control and applied heating package did not show any significant difference.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of the frame ratio and greenhouse length on the transmissivities of direct and diffuse solar radiation in glasshouse using a computer simulation model developed by Kim and Lee(1997). Transmissivity of diffuse solar radiation slightly decreased as the frame ratio increased. There was no effect of number of spans on the transmissivity of diffuse solar radiation at the same frame ratio. In single or multispan glasshouse, transmissivity of direct solar radiation was 1.5-3.0% higher at the frame ratio of 11.3% than those at the frame ratio of 14.9%. Also the transmissivity of direct solar radiation was 1.5-3.0% lower at the frame ratio of 18.3% than those at the frame ratio of 14.9%. Effect of the increased or decreased frame ratio on the transmissivity of direct solar radiation was similar in I-W or S-N glasshouse. Since the high transmissivity of direct solar radiation exerted a beneficial influence upon the plant growth during winter season, the light and endurable structural members were needed to maximize the transmission of solar radiation in glasshouse. Transmissivity of direct solar radiation in I-W or S-N glasshouse did not vary with the length of 24.5m long or more.

Effect of roof slope on the transmissivities of direct and diffuse solar radiation using a computer simulation model developed by Kim and Lee(1997) was analyzed for 10-span glasshouse located in Seoul(37$^{\circ}$34' N), Chonju(35$^{\circ}$49' N) and Cheju(33$^{\circ}$31' N). Transmissivities of diffuse solar radiation in glasshouse with roof slopes of 15, 20, 24.6, 30 and 35 degree were calculated as 61.3, 61.6, 61.7, 56.8 and 58.6%, respectively. Transmissivities of direct solar radiation(TDSR) during the period except summer season were highly affected by the roof slope. During the winter season, TDSR in glasshouse with roof slopes of 30 and 35 degree were higher than those with other roof slopes. Also, during the period except winter season, TDSR in glasshouse with roof slope of 20 degree were higher than those with other roof slopes. Difference in TDSR with latitude was significant during the period from October to February. At this period TDSR were highly appeared at lower latitude. Effect of roof slope on TDSR in S-N greenhouse was smaller than those in E-W greenhouse. It is considered that direct solar radiation highly transmitted in the glasshouse with roof slope of 20 degree.
