본 연구 대상인 주암댐-주암조절지댐간 도수터널은 저수지 간 연계운영을 통하여 서 남해안 일대의 용수 공급하기 위하여 건설되어 운영되었으나, 터널의 구조적 불안정성이 제기됨에 따라 향후 발생 가능성이 있는 용수공급 중단을 방지하기 위하여 신규 도수터널이 제안되었다. 계획된 신규 도수 터널의 주요 시설물은 크게 양방향 운영이 가능한 터널(D=3.3 m, L=11.23 km), 각 저수지 상황별 운영을 위한 취수문비 2개소, 도수가 이루어지는 상황에서 수문 돌발 폐쇄시 수충격을 감쇄하기 위한 배기구(air vents) 2개소가 계획되었다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 주암댐에서 주암조절지댐으로 최대 유량이 통수되는 상태에서, 수문폐쇄에 따른 수충격을 정량적으로 분석하고자 Joukowsky 공식에 적용하여 완폐쇄와 급폐쇄시 도수터널의 안정성을 검토하였으며, 수문 폐쇄로 인한 천이적인 흐름상태 등 수충격 모의가 가능한 1차원 ITM 모형을 적용하여, 수리분석과 수치모형과 결과 비교하고, 계획된 배기구의 유무에 따른 효과를 알아보고자 하였다. 분석 결과, 계획된 0.3 m/min으로 수문을 폐쇄할 경우, 도수터널의 안정성에는 문제가 없을 것으로 분석되었으나, 수문을 급 폐쇄 할 경우, 압력수두가 크게 증가하여 도수터널에 위험이 있을 것으로 분석되었으며 배기구 유무에 따른 수충격 검토 결과 도수터널 내의 수압상승을 적절히 조절하는 조압수조의 역할을 만족스럽게 수행할 것으로 분석되었다.

The study area is located in Hyeonseo-myeon and Andeok-myeon of Cheongsong-gun, Korea around the Yeongcheon dam waterway tunnel, and in this paper, it is analyzed whether the groundwater level is recovered or not compared to groundwater level before waterway tunnel construction by measuring the groundwater level of 156 wells which were installed in areas near and away from the waterway tunnel. From September 2017 to August 2018, the groundwater level of the well was measured at least once a month, and as a result of groundwater level observation survey, the groundwater level of wells distributed in the directly affected zone by the waterway tunnel is relatively lower than that of the indirectly affected zone apart from the waterway tunnel. These results are estimated to be predominantly affected by the effect of waterway tunnel acting on geologic discontinuities rather than by terrain conditions, i.e. groundwater flows being leaked to the waterway tunnel through direct or indirect channels. Continuous monitoring and further investigation will be required to maintain groundwater facilities and preserve groundwater environments in the future.

The influence of internal water pressure under the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) on tunnel spillway is analysed using 3D FDM analysis. HEC-RAS program including 1-D hydrologic numerical model was also implemented to estimate the maximum pressure on the lining under the PMF, thereafter determined rational internal water pressure. Tunnel spillway was designed as twin tunnel and excavation and supporting stage are fully considered. Analysis was classified into the 3 cases; pressure is applied only to the left tunnel, only to right tunnel, and to both tunnels. The maximum tensile stress and axial force in supporting materials induced by water flow were compared with the critical values to assess the stablilty of the tunnel and the locations of stress concentration parts were also examined.

For a hydro power plant project, the headrace tunnel having a finished diameter of 3.3 m was constructed in volcanic rocks with well-developed vertical joint and high groundwater table. The intake facility was located 20.3km upstream of the powerhouse and headrace tunnel of 20km in length and penstock of 440m in height connected the intake and the powerhouse. The typical caldera lake, Lake Toba set the geology at the site the caving of the ground caused tension cracks in the vertical direction to be developed and initial stresses at the ground to be released. High groundwater table(the maximum head of 20bar) in the area of well-connected vertical joints delayed the progress of tunnel excavation severely due to the excessive inflow of groundwater. The excavation of tunnel was made using open-shield type TBM and mucking cars on the rail. High volume of water inflowraised the water level inside tunnel to 70cm, 17% of tunnel diameter (3.9m) and hindered the mucking of spoil under water. To improve the productivity, several adjustments such as modification of TBM and mucking cars and increase in the number of submersible pumps were made forthe excavation of severe water inflow zone. Since the ground condition encountered during excavation turned out to be much worse, it was decided to adopt PC segment lining instead of RC lining. Besides, depending on the conditions of the water inflow, rock mass condition and internal water pressure, one of the invert PC segment lining with in-situ RC lining, RC lining and steel lining was applied to meet the site specific condition. With the adoption of PC segment lining, modification of TBM and other improvement, the excavation of the tunnel under severe groundwater condition was successfully completed.

The waterway tunnel zone (length 1,484m) in the Hyeonseo-myeon area that is a part of Yeongcheon dam waterway tunnel has been studied to characterize the relationship between groundwater inflow into the waterway tunnel and hydrogeologic characteristics. The effects of sandstone thickness in the tunnel section. fracture density, fracture aperture and spacing, fault zone width and hydraulic conductivity on the early inflow (inflow prior to the lining and grouting) are investigated. The relationship between fracture density and hydraulic conductivity is also considered. The result of the study suggests that fault zone width has the greatest effect on groundwater inflow into the tunnel, and sandstone thickness, hydraulic conductivity and fracture density in order shows an influence on the inflow.

When the structural analysis is performed for the concrete lining of the water pressure tunnel, many parameters are considered such as relaxed ground loads, internal water pressure, external water pressure, the shrinkage of the concrete lining, grouting pressure, etc. But, there are no standards and manuals for the structural analysis for the concrete lining of the water pressure tunnel. Above all, the external water pressure has an much effect on the stability of tunnel. So, in case that permeability of ground is large, the external water pressure should be decreased by installation of weep hole, or reinforced ground by ground improvement grouting should be pressed by the external water pressure instead. But, when weep hole is installed to reduce the external water pressure, the many problems may me occurred. Thus, reasonable approach for treatment of the external water pressure is necessary if weep hole is not installed. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to analyze design cases and studies for treatment of the external water pressure in performing structural analysis for the concrete lining of the water pressure tunnel, and to find reasonable method for tunnel lining modeling which is the treatment of the external water pressure according to permeability of ground and consequently the design of ground improvement grouting.
