This paper presents a hydraulic performance graph model in which the flow carrying capacity of a channel system was determined by accounting the interacting backwater effect among channel reaches and incoming lateral flow. The method utilizes hydraulic performance graphs (HPGs), and the method is applied to a natural channel Nakdong River to examine its applicability. This research shows that estimation results using HPG are close to records from the stage station and the results from a widely-accepted model, HEC-RAS. Assuming that a water level gage site is ungaged, water level estimations by HPGs compared with observation show that with a flood event, the HPGs underestimate in the water level ascension phase, but in the recession phase they overestimate results. The accuracy of estimation with HPGs was greatly improved by considering the time difference of flooding between the observation and estimation locations.

The various types of fishways are installed at the multi-functional weirs in the four major rivers to minimize the negative effect due to the construction of the transverse structures. The movable weir was installed at the upstream of the ice-harbor type artificial fishway of the Dalseong weir in the Nakdong river, which can control the fishway flowrate regardless of the river flowrate. The incoming flowrate to the artificial fishway is closely related with the hydraulic characteristics that dominate the fish passage efficiency. Thus, it is crucial to find out the weir operation rule for properly sustaining efficient fish-passage, such as the optimized flowrate. In this study, the FLOW-3D was used to analyze and compare the various hydraulic characteristics associated with the passage efficiency, based upon the given different flowrate, and subsequently provide the optimized flowrate for the fishway movable weir to maintain the best efficient flow condition for the fish-passage.

The deposition of sewer solids during dry weather in combined sewer systems results in a loss of flow capacity that may restrict flow and cause a local flooding and enhanced solids deposition. In order to solve these problems and to manage sewer systems efficiently, development of estimation equations for solid sediments In sewer systems is needed. However, estimation of solid sediments has performed using specific methods such as computer model before the development of estimation equations. In this study, solid sediments in sewer systems were estimated using MOUSE model for Gunja drainage basin in Korea and the estimated results were verified using estimation equations developed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. As results, the estimated values using MOUSE model are smaller than that of equations developed in 1977 but greater than that of equations developed in 1984. Although the comparison between simulated and measured solid deposition is difficult due to the absent of measurement data, the estimated values using MOUSE model is reliable and can be used to develop estimation equations for solid sediment in Gunja drainage basin.

Combined sewer solid deposition during dry weather periods and their resuspension during wet weather periods has long been recognized as a major contributor to the first-flush phenomenon. Also, these deposition of sewer solids results in a loss of flow capacity that may restrict flow and cause a local flooding at urban area. In order to solve these problems, measurement of solid deposition for a given sewer system for extended period is needed but this task is very difficult and extremely expensive. This paper presents the development and applicability of estimation equations for solid deposition in sewer systems based on the solid deposition estimated using MOUSE model. As results, the comparison between estimated and measured solid deposition is difficult due to the absent of measured data, but the estimated values using developed equations show applicability compared with the results of MOUSE model and the estimation equations developed by the EPA.

The computation of normal depth is very important for the design of channel and the analysis of water flow. Drainage pipe generally has the shape of curvature like circular or U-type, which is different from artificial triangular or rectangular channel. In this case, the computation of normal depth or the derivation of equations is very difficult because the change of hydraulic radius and area versus depth is not simple. If the ratio of the area to the diameter, or the hydraulic radius to the diameter of pipe is expressed as the water depth to the diameter of pipe by power law, however, the process of computing normal depth becomes relatively simple, and explicit equations can be obtained. In the present study, developed are the explicit normal depth equations for circular and U-type pipes, and the normal depth equation associated with Hagen (Manning) equation and friction factor equation of smooth turbulent flow by power law is also proposed because of its wide usage in engineering design.

The purpose of this study is to develop an optimal, long-term planning model for improvement of water distribution networks. The water distribution system is divided into sub-zones and the decision of improvement plan is made for each sub-zone. Costs for replacement, rehabilitation and repair, benefits including reduced pumping and leakage costs, and hydraulic reliability are considered to make optimal decision for improvement planning of water network. Harmony search algorithm is applied to optimize the system and hydraulic analysis model EPANET is interfaced with the optimal decision model to check the hydraulic reliability, The developed model is applied to actual water distribution system in Daegu-city, South Korea. The new model which use durability, conveyance and cost as a decision variable is different from existing methods which use only burying period and pipe type and can be used as optimal decision making system for water distribution network.

하천에서 위어 하류단의 세굴은 매우 중요한 현상이며 위어 형상에 따른 수리학적 흐름특성이 세굴거리 및 세굴심에도 영향을 미치므로, 적절한 하상보호공 설계를 위해 다양한 위어 하류단의 세굴 규모 및 세굴 형상을 산정하는 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 사다리꼴 래버린스 위어를 적용하여 일반적인 직선형 위어와 비교하였으며, 3차원 수치모의를 통해 하류단의 세굴 규모를 분석하였다. 현재 세굴 방지를 위하여 설치되는 위어 하류부 물받이 및 하상보호공의 설계 기준은 월류흐름에 의해 발생되는 하류부 세굴영향에 대한 고려가 미흡하며, 대부분 설계자료가 광정위어 및 예연 위어 형태만을 고려하고 있어 위어의 형상변화에 따른 고려 또한 부족한 실정이다. 따라서 하류부 세굴방지공의 안전하고 경제적인 설계를 위하여 위어의 형상 변화에 따른 위어 하류부 세굴 특성 분석에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서 적용한 래버린스(labyrinth) 위어는 수로 내에 설치된 횡방향 직선형 위어의 단면 형상을 변경하여 월류길이를 증가시킨 긴 마루(long crested) 위어 형태의 일종이다. 일반적으로 래버린스 위어는 월류량 증대, 수질개선 및 수심유지 효과가 필요한 수공구조물에 이용되어 하천에 적용될 경우, 관련 수공구조물의 수심 확보 측면에서 기여할 수 있는 구조물로 잘 알려져 있다. 수로폭과 유입유량을 알고 있을 경우 기존 연구자들에 의해 제시한 공식에 의해 직선형 위어의 하류단의 세굴거리와 세굴심을 산정할 수 있으며, 본 연구에서 제시한 세굴거리 비와 세굴심 비를 통해 래버린스 위어의 세굴거리 및 세굴심을 예측할 수 있었다. 분석결과 래버린스 위어의 하류단의 세굴거리는 직선형 위어에 비해 감소하고 세굴심은 증가하였으며, 총 마루길이 당 유입유량과 유입유량 조건에 따른 세굴거리 비 및 세굴심 비 변화를 통해 통수능 및 래버린스 위어의 마루길이 변화에 따른 세굴 영향범위를 조절할 수 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 추후 다양한 유량조건과 확폭비를 고려한 연구를 수행한다면 래버린스 위어의 마루길이에 따라 하상보호공 설계시 중요한 인자인 세굴거리와 세굴심을 조절할 수 있으며, 위어 형상에 따른 하류단 세굴 규모를 산정과 더불어 확장된 하상보호공 설계자료로 이용할 수 있을 것이다.

관로 및 맨홀에 퇴적된 유사는 우수관거의 통수능을 감소시키고 전체 우수관거 시스템의 효과를 저하시켜, 저지대 침수 및 맨홀역류의 원인이 되고 있다. 또한 관로의 최소 유속이 유지되지 않으면 오염물이 침전되고, 관로내의 유하시간이 길어져 침전물 부패로 인한 황하물질 및 악취 등이 발생될 수 있다. 따라서 관로의 유사와 관련된 주된 연구는 관로내의 유사거동 특성을 규명하는 것이었다. 그러나 맨홀에서의 유사퇴적 및 배출 등과 관련된 연구는 매우 미흡한 실정이다. 본 연구에서 유입관과 유출관이 일직선상으로 연결된 중간맨홀을 대상으로 수리실험을 실시하고, 맨홀형태(사각형, 원형), 유사유입형태(연속주입, 일정기간주입), 유사유입량 및 맨홀내부 구조변화에 따른 맨홀내 유사퇴적량을 확인하였다. 또한 맨홀내에 퇴적된 유사를 완전히 배출할 수 있는 관거 유속을 측정하였다. 유사퇴적량을 확인한 결과 맨홀내부의 구조변화가 없는 기본형에서는 유사유입형태가 연속주입 또는 일정기간주입인지와는 관계없이 유입유사량이 증가하면 퇴적량 또한 증가하였고, 맨홀형태가 사각형 또는 원형인지와도 관계없이 맨홀내부의 유사퇴적량은 비슷하였다. 기본형과 비교하여 맨홀내부에 벤칭을 설치하였을 경우 유사퇴적량을 50 % 이상 저감시킬 수 있었다. 이러한 결과는 사각형과 원형맨홀에서 동일하였으며 유사유입형태가 연속적으로 유입되는지 또는 일정기간동안만 순간적으로 유입되는지와도 관계없이 동일하였다. 그러나 벤칭이 설치된 사각형 맨홀의 경우 맨홀내부에 퇴적된 유사를 완전히 배출시킬 수 있는 유입관거유속이 기본형과 비교하여 30 % 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 원형맨홀에서는 벤칭을 설치함으로써 유사 완전배출을 위한 관거유속 또한 저감시킬 수 있었다. 본 연구에서 제안한 개선안의 경우 사각형, 원형, 연속주입, 일정기간주입 등의 조건과 관계없이 퇴적량을 50 % 이상 저감시킬 수 있었고, 유사 완전배출을 위한 관거유속 또한 기본형과 벤칭이 설치된 맨홀과 비교하여 50 % 이상 저감시킬 수 있음을 실험적으로 확인하였다. 원형 맨홀의 경우 완전배출 관거유속은 벤칭설치 시와 같았지만 완전배출까지의 소요시간은 본 연구의 개선안이 현저히 짧았다. 따라서 본 연구를 통해 제시안 맨홀내부 구조변화 개선안이 흐름개선과 함께 맨홀내부에 퇴적되는 유사량을 저감시킬 수 있는데 효과가 있다고 판단된다.
