For an accurate prediction of the temperature Held induced by surface discharge of heated water into an ambient cross-flow field. a three-dimensional near-field numerical model using k-$\varepsilon$ turbulence clousure is developed Rather restricted as it is, the numerical results of the model agree well with the experimental data. The developed model simulates quite adequately the stratification, gravitational lateral spreading, and upward entrainment of thermal jet which cannot be simulated by a depth-integrated two-dimensional numerical model, as well as the interaction with cross-flow.

자연하천에서의 흐름특성을 해석하기 위해 Boundary - fitted(BF) coordinate system을 응용하여 유한차분법에 의한 2차원모델을 개발하였다. BF coordinates는 경계면의 형상에 관계없이 적용할 수 있으며 모든 계산은 기본식의 좌표변환을 통해 직각좌표계에서 행해지므로 경계조건의 입력에 용이하다. Physical domain(X - Y 좌표계)에서 하천의 형상을 입력하면 Grid generation에 의해 모든 계산은 Computational domain($\varepsilon$ - n 좌표계)에서 행해진다. Computational domain에서의 유한차분법은 half - time step으로 ADI 방법을 이용했고, 한 방향의 유속과 수위를 Double sweep으로 풀었다. 유속, 수위 및 하상의 격점망은 Staggered grid system을 사용했으며 geometric elements는 각 격점별로 계산하였다. 본 모델을 이용하므로써 불규칙한 수로나 하천의 흐름상태를 해석할 수 있으므로 흐름의 종단, 횡단방향의 유속분포, Superelevation을 구할 수 있고 하천의 계획, 관리, 제방의 호안이나 구조물의 설치등으로 일어나는 수리학적 영향등을 예측할 수 있다.

This paper presents a simultaneous solution algorithm for one-dimensional unsteady flow routing through a dendritic channel system. This simulations solution algorithm is based on the double-sweep method and utilizes separate recursion equations for continuity, momentum and energy equations for each of the individual components of a dendritic channel system. Through separate recursion equations for each of the components. the new algorithm converts a dendritic channel network problem into a single-channel problem. The new algorithm is utilized in conjunction with a linearized unsteady flow model using full dynamic flow equations. The required computer storage for the coefficient matrix of the whole system is reduced significantly from the $2N{\times}2N$ matrix to a $2N{\times}4$ matrix, where N is the number of cross sections used in the computation of flow variables in a dendritic channel system. The algorithm presented in this paper provides an efficient and accurate modeling of unsteady flow events through a dendritic channel system.

There are a large number of weirs installed in rivers of Korea, and these characteristics are not common in other countries. When the flow passes through a structure such as a weir, discontinuous flow occurs. In terms of numerical simulation, it affects the numerical instability due to the balance between the flow term and the source term. In order to solve these problems, many researchers used empirical formulas or numerical scheme simplification. Recently, researches have been conducted to use more accurate numerical scheme. K-River was developed to reflect the characteristics of domestic rivers and calculate the discontinuous flow more accurately. For the verification of K-River, 1) numerical experiment simulations with a bump in the bed, 2) laboratory experiment of hydraulic jump simulation, 3) real river were performed. K-River verified its applicability by simulating results similar to the exact solution and observed value in all simulations.

현재까지 하천의 흐름, 유사이동, 수질해석을 위해서는 외국에서 개발된 소프트웨어를 주로 사용해 오고 있었다. 학술 분야에서는 국내의 모형들이 연구되어졌지만 그에 따른 GUI나 가시화 시스템에 대한 실용화는 거의 이루어지지 못하였다. 본 연구에서는 범용 2차원 하천 흐름, 수질, 유사이동 해석을 위한 GUI 및 가시화 시스템(이하 RAMS, River Analysis and Modeling System)을 개발하여, 하상변동 및 오염물 이송확산에 미치는 수리학적 영향을 규명할 수 있도록 하였다. RAMS는 크게 mesh generator, 해석 모형의 입력 GUI 모듈, 입출력 파일 생성 모듈, 그리고 모의 결과의 가시화 시스템 등으로 이루어져 있다. Mesh generator는 지형자료(이미지 또는 DXF 파일)를 백그라운드 이미지로 가져올 수 있으며, 삼각형 노드와 사각형 노드를 지원한다. 또한 thin triangle들을 제거하는 기능, 선택된 요소(elements)를 제거하는 기능, triangle들을 서로 병합하여 사각형 요소를 만드는 기능, mesh의 renumbering 기능 등을 구현하였다. 특히 사용자가 잘못 생성한 요소들을 바로 이전 상태로 환원하는 undo/redo 기능을 구현하여 능률적인 mesh 생성이 가능하다. 해석 모형의 입력 GUI 모듈에는 각 해석 모형(흐름, 수질, 유사이동)에 특화된 GUI를 설계하여 사용자는 보다 친숙한 환경에서 편리하게 자료를 입력할 수 있다. 입출력 파일 생성 모듈에서는 사용자가 GUI를 통해 입력한 자료를 파일로 변환하여 즉각적으로 모의를 수행하며, 그 출력 파일을 읽어 모의 결과를 자동적으로 가시화한다. 모의 결과의 가시화 시스템에서는 수많은 모의 결과를 체계화하여 등고선 및 화살표 등으로 표현하며, time step 별 결과를 바로 확인할 수 있다. 또한 애니메이션 기능을 구현하여 사용자가 원하는 구간의 time step에서의 모의 결과를 연속적으로 볼 수 있으며, 이 애니메이션을 AVI 파일로 변환하여 다른 동영상 프로그램에서도 재생할 수 있다. 본 연구에서 개발한 RAMS를 이용하여 하천 설계 시 그 공학적 근거를 제시하고, 국내 실정에 맞는 국산 소프트웨어를 제공함으로써 하천의 흐름, 수질, 유사이동 해석에 의한 하천의 수리학적 거동을 보다 편리하고 정확하게 모의할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The hydrodynamic models are widely used in the research for analysis of flow characteristics and design of hydraulic structure and river channel. These models need to be calibrated with observed data. But, there are few field data of two-dimensional flow velocity in flood because the direct measurement of the flood flow velocity are very dangerous. For this reason the results of two-dimensional numerical models are usually calibrated and verified with only a few observed data. Moreover, the verification of numerical models for the design flood is usually carried out using the result of one-dimensional model, HEC-RAS. In this study, using the flow velocity profile extracted from the aerial photos of a flood of the Tone River in Japan, two-dimensional numerical models, RAM2 in RAMS, RMA2 in SMS, and one-dimensional numerical model, HEC-RAS which are most widely used in research and design work are verified and the validity for verification of two-dimensional models with HEC-RAS is reviewed. The results showed that the water surface elevation of HEC-RAS, RAM2 and RMA2 models have similar results with observed data. But, the velocity results of RAM2 and RMA2 models in the floodplain have some difference with the velocity from aerial photo analysis. And the velocity result of HEC-RAS has big difference with the sectional averaged value of velocity from aerial photo analysis.

Numerical models were employed to investigate the hydrodynamics of water flow in the lake behind a dam and the spillway where supercritical flows and negative pressures are likely to occur. In this study, 2-D model, RMA2 was employed to examine the upstream flow pattern and 3-D CFD model, FLUENT was used to evaluate the three-dimensional flow in the approaching region and flow distributions in the spillways and discharge culverts. The bathymetry and the details of structures were carefully taken into consideration in building the models. The results from applying the 2-D model for the planned Hantan River Dam show that large eddies, the velocity of which reaches up to 1 m/s are occurring in several places upstream of the dam. That means that the 2-D numerical model could be utilized to investigate the two-dimensional flow patterns after the construction of a dam. Three-dimensional numerical results show that the approach flow varies depending on stages and discharge conditions, and velocities at spillways, discharge culverts, and sediment flushing tunnels are differently distributed. The velocity distributions obtained from the numerical model and a hydraulic model at the centerline of spillways 100 m upstream of the dam show reasonably similar results. It is expected that 2-D and 3-D numerical models ate useful tools to help optimize the dam design through investigating the flow patterns in the spillway and at the upstream of the dam, which is not always feasible in hydraulic modeling.

Two dimensional numerical model of high-order accuracy is developed to analyze complex flow including transition flow, discontinuous flow, and wave propagation to dry bed emerging at natural river flow. The bed slope term of two dimensional shallow water equation consisting of integral conservation law is treated efficiently by applying quasi-steady wave propagation scheme. In order to apply Finite Volume Method using Fractional Step Method, MUSCL scheme is applied based on HLL Riemann solver, which is second-order accurate in time and space. The TVD method is applied to prevent numerical oscillations in the second-order accurate scheme. The developed model is verified by comparing observed data of two dimenstional levee breach experiment and dam breach experiment containing structure at lower section of channel. Also effect of the source term is verified by applying to dam breach experiment considering the adverse slope channel.

A finite element model for analyzing surface water flow was developed. Shallow water equation was discretized and solved by Galerkin and Newton-Raphson method. Triangular or rectangular elements can be mixed together to construct meshes. The algebraic equation was solved by frontal method which is very efficient in finite element problem. The developed model was applied to rectangular meandering channel with two bends and transverse velocities and water depth distributions were examined. High velocity was located near the inner bank at the apexes of the bends and velocity distribution was symmetrical about the centerline at the midsection of two bend and super elevation also occurred. Simulation results showed very good agreement with measured data. Another numerical simulation was carried out in mild, steep, adverse and abrupt bottom change slope and channels with weir. 12 water surface profiles of gradually varied flow were correct in terms of hydraulic interpretation.

Numerical simulations were performed to analyse the flow pattern of the approach channel and to design the spillway guidewall for stable flow conditions. RMA-2, two dimensional finite element model which can easily represent complicated geometry was used, and model parameters were estimated from the observation data of hydraulic model test. Numerical experiments were made separately for the approach region and for the upstream region, and upstream boundary position of the hydraulic model beyond which the boundary effects are negligible was determined from the numerical results. For the stable flow condition in approach channel, alternative designs for guidewall were developed, and flow analysis for alternative designs was done through the numerical simulation. From the analysis of alternative design, we can see that the flow pattern in the approach channel is stable and the lateral stage difference disappears mostly before the spillway crest.
