Abstract

The purpose of this study is to present the most appropriate hardware and software configurations to produce a practical SIV (surface image velocimeter). To make a practical SIV, we constructed the system with a CCTV, a water stage gauge, and an analysis software installed on an Android board. The camera captures continuously images for 30 seconds with 2 minute intervals. And the 11-parameter projection method was used in the software that analyzes the captured images to reconstruct the exact measurement points according to the changing water stage. In addition, a spatio-temporal image construction method was developed so that the directions of the images could be arranged in the main flow direction at each measurement point. The surface image velocimeter composed of the proposed method was produced and installed at the Insu Stream, Seoul for a test site. And a result of measurement during a heavy rainfall event showed that the proposed system can measure flow discharge in proper, rapid and continuous manner.

본 연구의 목표는 실용적인 표면영상유속계를 만들기 위해 가장 적절한 하드웨어와 소프트웨어의 구성을 제시하는 것이다. 실용적인 표면영상유속계 구성을 위해 하드웨어로 CCTV를 선택하고, 2분 간격으로 30초간의 영상을 지속적으로 촬영하는 장비를 구성하였다. 촬영된 동영상을 분석하는 소프트웨어에는 11-변수 투영법을 적용하여 변화하는 수위에 따라 정확한 측정점을 재구성하도록 하였다. 아울러 각 측정점에서 주흐름방향으로 정확한 시공간영상을 작성할 수 있도록 시공간영상 작성법을 제안하였다. 제안된 방법으로 구성된 표면영상유속계를 제작하여 인수천에 시험적용하여 호우 사상에 대해 검토한 결과 정확하고 신속하며 연속적인 유량측정이 가능하였다.
