Abstract—Outdoor design temperature is important for
selecting the proper capacity of heating and cooling systems of a
building to save building energy. The purpose of the study is to
investigate the change of South Korea outdoor design
temperatures according to the assigned period. When heating
design temperature was calculated by 8-year period, Seoul
region was found to be the lowest at -10.86℃ with data period
from 1982 to 1989, while Jeju region was the highest at 1.57℃
with data period from 1988 to 1995. When cooling design
temperature was calculated by 8-year period, Daegu region
showed the highest at 33.54℃ with data period from 1988 to
1995, while Incheon region showed the lowest at 29.48℃ with
data period from 2008 to 2015. As for the correlation between
heating design temperature and mean temperature, Gwangju
and Jeju were found to be lower than 0.5, with 0.2798 and
0.2777, respectively, showing little correlation with the mean
temperature. However, as for the correlation between cooling
design temperature and mean temperature, Gwangju and Jeju
were found to be higher than 0.5, with 0.6822 and 0.7879,
respectively, showing strong correlation with mean
temperature.
