The two-dimensional Random-Walk model in which fluid and pollutant particles are tracked using statistical concept was developed to simulate dispersion processes in natural streams. The calibration of the model shows that the error decreases as the number of grid increases, and/or the number of particles in each grid increases. The proposed model is tested against the dispersion data collected in the Grand River, Canada. The simulation results show that the 2-D Random-Walk model describes two-dimensional mixing phenomena occurred in the irregular meandering stream very accurately.

저수지와 같은 갇혀진 수체는 상류에서 유입되는 오염물질 뿐만 아니라 성층현상에 의해서도 오염될 수 있다. 안정된 성층은 혐기성 조건을 제공하여 바닥에서의 과도한 조류성장을 유발하고 연직순환흐름을 방해한다. 갇혀진 수체에서의 연직순환은 환경적인 문제를 감소시킬 수 있도록 중요한 역할을 한다. 갇혀진 수체에서의 연직순환은 이러한 오염을 줄이는데 중요한 역할을 하는데, 연직순환을 일으키는 인자로는 빛의 입사, 바람, 물의 온도 및 열의 확산 등이 있으며, 그중에서도 가장 중요한 것은 바람의 영향이다. 그러므로 성층화된 흐름에서 바람에 의해 발생하는 연직순환에 대한 수치모형을 개발하고 적용하는 것이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 수온성층흐름에서의 순환흐름을 해석하기 위하여 유속성분을 계산하고 자유수면 변위와 온도, 염도등과 같은 스칼라양의 해석을 위해 다음과 같은 3단계의 방법을 이용하였다. 첫 번째 단계(정수압 계산단계)에서는 운동량 방정식의 경사항을 음해적으로 해석하고, 두 번째 단계(자유수면 보정단계)에서는 자유수면의 변화를 계산하고 수평방향 유속성분을 계산한다. 예측-수정자 방법(predictor-corrector step method)을 이용하여 자유수면변위와 유속을 구하였다. 마지막으로 세 번째 단계(이송-확산단계)에서는 이송-확산 방정식을 이용하여 스칼라양을 계산하였다. 본 연구에서 제시한 모형의 정확도를 검증하기 위하여 정사각형수조에서 진동하는 자유수면의 해석해와 비교하였고, 성층화된 흐름에서 발생하는 연직순환에 대하여 수치모의를 실시하였다. 그 결과, 본 연구에서 개발된 수치모형이 흐름 내부의 현상을 잘 묘사함을 알 수 있었다.

Excavation works on stream beds have been done for various reasons including aggregate collection, sediment dredging, bridge constructions, or laying pipes under the ground. These activities may cause significant loadings of SS (suspended solids) resulting in water pollution and other detrimental effects to the surrounding environment. This research investigates application potential of a fickian diffustion model, derived from two dimensional advection-diffusion equation through some simplifying assumptions, as a planning tool for the estimation of SS loadings from excavation works and evaluation fo pollution prevention measures in case that sophisticated numerical simulation models are not applicable due to various practical reasons. Through a case study of the Juncheon stream in the Donghae City on the Kangwondo Province, this study demonstrates applicability of the fickian diffustion model as a practical method for the preliminary estimation of Ss loadings from excavation works and evaluation of performance of fabrics made of synthetic fiber for the reduction of downstream SS concentration with deficient field data.

In this study, in order to find out the movement of polluted substance that is flown into the river and the characteristics of dispersion, the experiment that used the RI (Radio Isotope) tracer in the river was undertaken, and by using the experiment result, the figure modelling was undertaken to analyze the general type of pollutant dispersion. In addition, in order to calculate more accurate dispersion range and moving time, the experiment was done in about 2km from the measuring points of Namdaecheon around the Yongdam Dam of the upper Geum River to the lower stream, and modeling was undertaken for the 20km zone from the measuring points to the lower stream. In order to find out the flow of river and dispersion of polluted substance, RMA (Resource Modeling Associates)-2 and RMA-4 program are used in study. The site experiment using the RI was implemented for the experiment in the applied area and the same area, and the distance between each zone was set for 1㎞ with the slight difference for site situation and measured the density date of one second distance through the NaI apparatus to measure the density data of one second interval. On the basis of this measured data, it is compared and analyzed with the result of figure copy of RMA-2 and RMA-4 models to make the comparison and analysis of density distribution following the change in expansion coefficient that makes great influence on expansion range and dispersion in natural rivers. The influence of expansion coefficient on river can be researched and the measured density data, the maximum and minimum density time, and the basic data to calculate the expansion coefficient was prepared in this study.

대기 독성물질과 이산화질소, 이산화탄소를 포함한 다른 오염물질은 인간의 건강과 쾌적함이라는 개념하에서 시각화되었고 그 중에서 질소산화물의 상태는 CO와 HC를 다루는 것보다 도시에서 훨씬 어려운 실정이다. 도시지역에서 대기오염물질 농도는 오염물질의 누적을 유발하는 요소와 오염물질의 확산을 유발하는 요소사이의 균형에 의해서 제어를 받고 있다.(중략)

배출원에서 배출된 대기오염물질은 바람장에 의해 대기 중에서 이류 및 확산되므로 바람장에 대한 보다 정확한 이해와 재현(characterization) 및 예측(prediction)은 대기오염 연구에 필수적이라고 할 수 있다. 대기오염 모델에 사용되는 기상 자료는 진단적 방법 또는 예단적 방법에 의해 산출될 수 있는데 진단적 방법보다는 예단적 방법이 자료의 시ㆍ공간적 제약이 적으므로 예단적 방법을 선호하는 추세이다.(중략)

2000년 7월 환경부에서 발표한 대기오염물질 배출사업장의 수는 32,437개소이고, 그 중에서 대형굴뚝이 있는 1종 ∼ 3종 사업장이 3,117 개소에 이르고 있다. 이들 사업장의 대부분은 굴뚝을 통하여 오염물질을 배출하고 있다. 국내외적으로 21세기 대기환경관리 정책방향은 사업장의 대기오염물질 배출원 관리를 강화하고 있고, 대기오염물질 배출규제방식도 기존의 배출농도 규제중심에서 배출원이 주변지역에 미치는 기여농도를 중심으로 이동하는 추세이다. (중략)

The complex nature of low flow transport and transformation of nonconservative pollutants in natural streams has been investigated using a numerical solution of a proposed mathematical model that is based on a pair of mass balance equations describing the advection, dispersion, decay and mass exchange mechanisms in streams and in storage zones. In the present study, a mathematical model (named "Storage-Transformation Model") has been developed to predict adequately the non-Fickian nature of mixing and transformation mechanisms for decaying substances in natural streams under low flow conditions. Comparisons of the computed concentration-time curves with the measured data show that the Storage-Transformation Model yields better agreements in general shape, peak concentration and time to peak than the conventional 1-D dispersion model. The proposed model shows significant improvement over the 1-D dispersion model in predicting natural transport and transformation processes in streams through pools and riffles.

This study presents a numerical model that can simulate changes of particle size distribution (PSD) of PCB-contaminated coastal sediments. The developed model has one spatial dimension including sedimentation and vortical dispersion as well as coagulation. The reason for considering the vortical transport mechanisms is to calculate residence time of the particles. Using the model and Initial PSD data based on actual coastal sediments contaminated with PCBs, this study shows results of model simulations. Within 48 hours of the simulation time, the PSD changed significantly and the particles were removed from water in different rates between different particle sizes. It also shows that coagulation can act an important role in this process. The model may be useful in assessing the range of resuspended sediments that can pollute neighboring areas during environmental remediation projects such as dredging.

The dispersion of a pollutant in a turbulent boundary layer has been described in this study by using a two-dimensional lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) and the Smagorinsky sub-grid-scale (SGS) model. The scalar transport equation corresponding to the pollutant concentration is adopted; the pollutant is considered to be in a continuous phase. The pollutant source is classified as ground-level source (GLS) and elevated-point source (ES). Air velocity and particle concentration profile for the pollutant are compared with the respective results and profiles obtained in the experiments of Fackrell and Robins (1982) and Raupach and Legg (1983). The numerical results obtained in this study, i.e., the simulation and the experimental data for the mean flow velocity profiles and the pollutant concentration profiles, are in good agreement with each other.
