Analysis of Design Parameters for Power Plant Breakwater Channels Using Geotextile Containment

지오텍스타일 컨테인먼트를 활용한 발전소 방파수로 설계인자 분석

The geotextile tube shall be sewen with geotextile longitudinally in the shape of hose and it shall be filled hydraulically through filling ports at the proper intervals to construct structure. Geotextile container shall be sewen after spreading of geotextile on the split barge and sealed shut after the filling soil, and then moved and positioned at the required position. And the geotextile container passes through the bottom of barge by opening split barge and drops to the seabed to form structure. This structure for the ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$ project, UAE and we would propose that geotextile containment for core material of power plant breakwater to be constructed for lower bunds with containers up to -4.0m and do upper parts with the structures of tube up to 0.0m. For the application of proposed geotextile containment, review on stability of breakwaters and design consideration were adopted. The evaluation on stability of geotextile containment was classified by 3 items, internal design consideration for material selection, reviews on stability for individual and global structure. In this research, the geothermal analysis was performed to estimate the geothermal behavior of central breakwater. Central breakwater is located boundary of intake and outfall channel, it is mean that the central breakwater is thermal boundary of intake low temperature sea water and outfall high temperature sea water. Therefore, it is required to be designed a low permeability to ensure no mix of intake and outfall waters.

본 연구에서 검토한 지오텍스타일 컨테이너와 튜브를 활용한 수로구조물은 UAE에서 수행한 프로젝트로 수심이 4.0m 이하인 경우 지오텍스타일 컨테이너를 저개식 바지로부터 해저바닥에 착지시키는 방법으로 시공하고 그 윗부분은 지오텍스타일 튜브로 시공을 수행하였다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 지오텍스타일 컨테이너와 튜브를 활용하여 해상의 발전소 방파제 수로구조물 축조 시 고려된 구조물의 개별 및 다단구조물의 안정성, 지오텍스타일 재질 선택에 관련한 설계인자를 분석하였다. 또한, 방파제 구조물이 위치한 현장이 발전소의 용수의 유입과 유출이 발생하는 구역으로 발전소 유출입수의 온도가 방파제 구조물 내부의 온도변화에 미치는 영향에 대하여 분석하였다.
