Abstract

In the case of rapidly developed urban and industrial complex, the most area becomes impervious, which causes the increasing runoff and high probability of flooding. SWMM model has been widely used to calculate stormwater runoff in urban areas, however, the model is limited to interpreting the actual natural phenomenon. It has the uncertainty in the model structure, so it is difficult to calculate the accurate runoff from the urban basin. In this study, the model parameters were investigated and uncertainty was quantified using Uncertainty Quantification Index (UQI). As a result, pipe roughness coefficient has the largest total uncertainty and largest effect on the total runoff. Therefore, when the stormwater pipe network is designed, pipe roughness coefficient has to be calibrated accurately. The quantified uncertainty should be considered in the runoff calculation. It is recommended to understand the characteristics of each parameter for the prevention and mitigation of urban flood.

급격히 발전하는 도시지역 및 산업단지의 경우 불투수지역이 대부분이며, 이로 인해 유출이 증가함에 따라 내수침수가 발생할 확률이 높아지고 있다. 도시지역의 유출해석은 대부분 SWMM 모형을 이용하여 강우-유출해석을 수행하고 있으나 이러한 모형은 실제 자연 현상을 해석하는데 한계가 있으며, 모형 자체도 불확실성을 가지고 있어 정확한 유출해석을 하는데 어려움이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 모형의 매개변수를 조사하고 불확실성을 가지는 매개변수를 선정한 후 매개변수의 불확실성 정도를 불확실성 정량화 지수를 이용하여 정량화하였다. 수행 결과 관조도계수의 불확실성이 가장 크며, 유출량에 미치는 영향도 가장 컸다. 그러므로 우수관거 설계 시 관조도계수 추정을 보다 정확히 산정하여야 하며, 불확실성 정도를 예측하여 유출해석에 반영하고, 각 매개변수가 가지는 특성을 파악한다면 내수 침수를 예방하는데 큰 기여를 할 것으로 판단된다.
