In the field of high-level radioactive waste disposal targeting deep rock environments, hydraulic characteristic information serves as the most important key factor in selecting relevant disposal sites, detailed design of disposal facilities, derivation of optimal construction plans, and safety evaluation during operation. Since various rock types are mixed and distributed in a small area in Korea, it is important to conduct preliminary work to analyze the hydrogeological characteristics of rock aquifers for various rock types and compile the resulting data into a database. In this paper, we obtained hydraulic conductivity data, which is the most representative field hydraulic characteristic of a high-depth volcanic bedrock aquifer, and also analyzed and evaluated the field data. To acquire field data, we used a high-performance hydraulic testing system developed in-house and applied standardized test methods and investigation procedures. In the process of hydraulic characteristic data analysis, hydraulic conductivity values were obtained for each depth, and the pattern of groundwater flow through permeable rock joints located in the test section was also evaluated. It is expected that the series of data acquisition methods, procedures, and analysis results proposed in this report can be used to build a database of hydraulic characteristics data for high-depth rock aquifers in Korea. In addition, it is expected that it will play a role in improving technical know-how to be applied to research on hydraulic characteristic according to various bedrock types in the future.

본 연구에서는 국내 시설농업단지의 수리지질 특성을 고려한 개념 모델을 설정하여 수리전도도와 이격거리(주입정과 양수정 사이의 거리)에 대한 민감도 분석을 수행하였다. 개념 모델에는 자연적 특성(지형과 지질, 강수량, 수리전도도 등)과 인공적 특성(주입정과 양수정의 이격거리, 주입량과 양수량 등)이 입력되었으며, 민감도 분석은 수리전도도(10^-1 cm/sec, 10^-2 cm/sec, 10^-3 cm/sec, 10^-4 cm/sec)와 이격거리(10 m, 50 m, 100 m)를 조합한 12개의 시나리오로 수행하였다. 양수정의 하류부에 설정된 관측정의 지하수위 강하량은 수리전도도가 감소하고 이격거리가 멀어질수록 증가하였다. 동일한 이격거리에서 수리전도도에 의한 지하수위 강하량의 회귀분석을 통해 인공함양 대수층의 지하수위 변동은 수리전도도에 의해 지배적인 영향을 받음을 알 수 있었다. 인공함양 대수층의 수리전도도가 10^-2 cm/sec 이상인 조건에서는 주입정과 양수정의 이격거리에 따른 지하수위의 영향반경은 20 m 이내이었지만, 수리전도도가 10^-3 cm/sec 이하인 조건에서는 이격거리가 멀어질수록 지하수위의 영향반경이 급격하게 증가함을 확인하였다.

금정터널 굴착 공사의 실시 설계를 위하여 굴착시 발생하게될 터널내로의 지하수 유출과 관련된 수리지질학적 특성을 연구하였다. 단열들에 대한 정보를 얻기 위하여 지표지질조사 및 지질구조조사를 실시하였다. 연구지역의 투수성을 파악하기 위하여 토양의 물리적, 공학적 특성을 규명하였고, 또한 정압주입시험을 실시하였다. 선구조선의 우세방향은 북북동-남남서 방향으로 동래단층 및 동래단층과 관련된 단층군들이 포함된다. 토양시료의 시험결과, 산정된 수리전도도는 2.l9E-05 m/sec ~ 2.11E-04 m/sec 로서 투수성이 빠름 ~ 매우 빠른 범위 값을 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 주입시험에 의해 산정된 수리전도도는 2.28E-10 m/sec ~ 1.49E-06 m/sec 로서 최대값과 최소값은 4 차수(four order)의 차이를 보였다.

The KURT (KAERI Underground Research Tunnel) is a research tunnel which is located in KAERI (Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute) site. At KURT, researches on engineering and natural barrier system, which are the most important components for geological disposal system for high level radioactive waste, have been conducted. In this study, we synthesized the site characteristics obtained by various types of site investigation to introduce the geological model for KURT site, and induced the 3-D hydrogeological model for KURT site from the geological model. From the geological investigation at the surface and boreholes, four geological elements such as subsurface weathered zone, upper fractured rock, lower fractured rock and fracture zones were determined for the geological model. In addition, the geometries of these geological elements were also analyzed for the geological model to be three-dimensional. The results from 3-D geological model were used to construct the hydro-geological model for KURT site, which is one of the input data for groundwater flow modeling and safety assessment.

To characterize the geological features in the study area for high-level radioactive waste disposal research, KAERI (Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute) has been performing several geological investigations such as geophysical surveys and borehole drillings since 1997. Especially, the KURT (KAERI Underground Research Tunnel) constructed to understand the deep geological environments in 2006. Recently, the deep boreholes, which have 500 m depth inside the left research module of the KURT and 1,000 m depth outside the KURT, were drilled to confirm and validate the results from a geological model. The objective of this research was to investigate hydrogeological conditions using a 3-D geological model around the KURT. The geological analysis from the surface and borehole investigations determined four important geologicla elements including subsurface weathered zone, low-angled fractures zone, fracture zones and bedrock for the geological model. In addition, the geometries of these elements were also calculated for the three-dimensional model. The results from 3-D geological model in this study will be beneficial to understand hydrogeological environment in the study area as an important part of high-level radioactive waste disposal technology.
