Abstract

Reach-average velocity prediction in steep mountain streams is important for understanding fluvial processes and practical applications of erosion control in mountain streams. little studies have been conducted in reach-average velocity, but hydraulic researches have been carried out to examine the relationship between discharge and reach-average velocity in torrent reaches using a relatively large amount of discharge data. In this study, a total of 87 data were measured in 8 torrent reaches. Salt-dilution method was used to estimate discharge. Reach-average velocity was calculated from harmonic mean of travel time that were measured by salt-dilution technique. In order to exlpore the hydraulic relation, both discharge and velocity were non-dimensionalized by using $D_{50}$, $D_{84}$, ${\sigma}_{pro}$ and $IPR_{90}$. It also indicated that ${\sigma}_{pro}$ and $IPR_{90}$ were good variables as roughness height for develop the relationship between non-dimensional discharge and velocity in mountain streams. Generally, reach-average velocity could increase exponentially as discharge increases.

산지하천의 평균유속을 정확하게 추정하는 것은 하천의 수리적 흐름을 이해하고, 사방댐과 같은 사방구조물 최적 설계를 위해 중요하다. 산지하천의 평균 유속에 대한 연구는 부족한 실정이나 최근에는 상대적으로 자료 확보가 용이한 유량 자료를 이용하여 유량과 평균유속의 관계를 파악하는 연구들이 많이 진행되고 있다. 이 연구에서는 8개소의 서로 다른 산지소하천에서 조사된 87회의 유량과 평균 유속 자료를 분석하였다. 산지하천의 유량과 평균유속을 측정하기 위해 salt-dilution 방법을 사용하였으며, 평균유속은 도달 시간의 조화 평균을 적용하여 구하였다. 하천의 거칠기 높이를 이용하여 유량과 유속과의 무차원 관계식을 도출하였다. 거칠기 높이는 하상재료의 $D_{50}$, $D_{84}$와 하상변위의 ${\sigma}_{pro}$, $IPR_{90}$를 이용하였으며, ${\sigma}_{pro}$와 $IPR_{90}$의 정확성이 더 높게 나타났다. 일반적으로 유량과 평균 유속은 지수함수 관계를 보였다.
