  • The effects of fractures in rock masses on the groundwater flow and the groundwater flow system in the volcanic rocks are analyzed by GFFP-WT model, which allows more realistic analysis of groundwater system by considering the fractures in rock masses. The evaluation of the effects of fractures in rock masses on the groundwater flow has been carried out in the 2nd Yeonwha and resulted in that the fractures mostly influence flow time because of hydraulic head distribution change. The results of the groundwater flow system analysis in the volcanic rocks are as follows. Most of groundwater once flowed in Lapilli tuff flowed out through Lappilli tuff layer. But only a small fraction of water flowed out through crystal tuff layer.

  • 가상의 심층처분 부지의 지하수 유동 모의 결과를 통해 처분 심도에 위치하는 처분공 지점에서의 지하수 유동량 및 해당 지점에서 지표 환경까지 지하수가 유동하는 경로의 거리와 경로를 통과하는데 걸리는 시간에 대한 수량적, 공간적 분포를 분석하여 그 결과를 처분공의 위치 결정에 이용할 수 있는 방안을 제시하였다. 지하수 유동량은 처분공 위치에서 계산된 지하수위를, 유동 거리와 경과 시간은 입자 추적 기법(particle tracking)을 이용하여 계산하였다. 지하수 유동량 및 유동 거리와 경과 시간의 공간적 분포를 이용하여 처분시설의 성능을 유지하는데 상대적으로 유리한 위치를 선별하고 특정한 제한 조건이 주어진 경우 제외되어야 하는 처분공 위치를 결정하여 처분공 배치에 이용할 수 있은 방안을 제시하였다. 또한 세 가지 정보를 함께 고려하여, 추가적인 처분공의 위치를 선정할 필요가 있을 경우 보다 유리한 확장 방향을 제시할 수 있는 방안도 논의되었다. 처분 심도에서의 지하수 유동 정보를 활용하여 처분공의 배치 방안을 결정하는 것은 처분시설의 성능 및 안전성 확보를 위해 기여할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

  • To analyze the influence of various groundwater flow rates (specific discharge) on BHE system with balanced and unbalanced energy loads under assuming same initial temperature (15℃) of ground and groundwater, numerical modeling using FEFLOW was used for this study. When groundwater flow is increased from 1 × 10−7 to 4 × 10−7m/s under balanced energy load, the performance of BHE system is improved about 26.7% in summer and 22.7% at winter time in a single BHE case as well as about 12.0~18.6% in summer and 7.6~8.7% in winter time depending on the number of boreholes in the grid, their array type, and bore hole separation in multiple BHE system case. In other words, the performance of BHE system is improved due to lower avT in summer and higher avT in winter time when groundwater flow becomes larger. On the contrary it is decreased owing to higher avT in summer and lower avT in winter time when the numbers of BHEs in an array are increased, Geothermal plume created at down-gradient area by groundwater flow is relatively small in balanced load condition while quite large in unbalanced load condition. Groundwater flow enhances in general the thermal efficiency by transferring heat away from the BHEs. Therefore it is highly required to obtain and to use adequate informations on hydrogeologic characterristics (K, S, hydraulic gradient, seasonal variation of groundwater temperature and water level) along with integrating groundwater flow and also hydrogeothermal properties (thermal conductivity, seasonal variation of ground temperatures etc.) of the relevant area for achieving the optimal design of BHE system.

  • 이 조사는 지상에 존재하는 지하수의 잠재오염원(저장탱크)으로부터 오염물질 누출 시, 이를 조기 진단하기 위한 지하수 오염관측망의 설계 인자로서 부지 규모 지하수환경의 시공간적 변동성을 파악하고자 시행되었다. 부지 내 위치한 저장탱크 주변에 22~25 m 심도로 3개의 관측공을 설치하고, 이들로부터 약 22개월 동안 2분 간격으로 지하수위와 수온 변화를 관측하였으며, 이 자료는 주변 기상관측소의 강수 및 기온 자료와 비교 분석되었다. 조사기간 동안 지하수위의 연 변화와 강수 현상에 대한 반응, 지하수온의 변동과 기온에 대한 지연시간 등은 비교적 작은 규모의 부지에서도 지하수 흐름과 유동 경로의 복잡성을 지시한다. 따라서 오염누출 감시를 위한 지하수 관측망은 상세한 부지특성화 조사 결과에 근거하여 부지 지하수환경의 복잡성을 충분히 고려하여 설계되어야 한다.

  • A two dimensional analysis program for groundwater flow in fractured network was developed to analyze the influence of discontinuity characteristics on groundwater flow. This program involves the generation of discontinuities and also connectivity analysis. The discontinuities were generated by the probabilistic density function(P.D.F.) reflecting the characteristics of discontinuities. And the fracture network model was completed through the connectivity analysis. This program also involves the analysis of groundwater flow through the discontinuity network. The result of numerical experiment shows that the equivalent hydraulic conductivity increased and became closer to isotropic as the density and trace length increased. And hydraulic head decreased along the fracture zone because of much water-flow. The grouting increased the groundwater head around cavern. An analysis of groundwater flow through discontinuity network was performed around underground oil storage cavern which is now under construction. The probabilistic density functions(P.D.F) were obtained from the investigation of the discontinuity trace map. When the anisotropic hydraulic conductivity is used, the flow rate into the cavern was below the acceptable value to maintain the hydraulic containment. But when the isotropic hydraulic conductivity is used, the flow rate was above the acceptable value.

  • Contaminant transport in groundwater induces major threat and harmful effect on the environment; hence, the fate of the contaminant migration in groundwater is seeking a lot of attention. In this paper a two dimensional numerical flow and transport model through saturated layered soil is developed. Groundwater flow and solute transport has been simulated numerically using proposed model. The model implements the finite volume time splitting method to discretize the main equations. The performance, accuracy and efficiency of the out coming numerical models have been successfully examined by two test cases. The verification test cases consist of two-dimensional, groundwater flow and solute transport. The final purpose of this paper is to discuss and compare the shape of contaminant plume in homogeneous and heterogeneous media with different soil properties and control of solute transport using a zone for minimizing the potential of groundwater contamination; furthermore, this model leads to select the effective and optimum remedial strategies for cleaning the contaminated aquifers.

  • An increase of groundwater flux in BHE system creates that ground temperature (locT) becomes lower in summer and higher in winter time. In other words, it improves significantly the performance of BHE system. The size of thermal plume made up by advection driven-flow under the balanced energy load is relatively small in contrast to the unbalanced energy load where groundwater flow causes considerable change in the size of thermal plume as well ground temperature. The ground temperatures of the up gradient and down gradient BHEs under conduction only heat transport are same due to no groundwater flow. But a significant difference of the ground temperature is observed between the down gradient and up gradient BHE as a result of groundwater flow-driven thermal interference took placed in BHE field. As many BHEs are designed under the obscure assumption of negligible groundwater flow, failure to account for advection can cause inefficiencies in system design and operation. Therefore including groundwater flow in the design procedure is considered to be essential for thermal and economic sustain ability of the BHE system.

  • Hydrogeological survey and geochemical analysis were carried out in Phra Yun area, Northeast Thailand, which is a typical salt-affected area for an understanding of hydrogeological groundwater behaviours. Geological survey reveals the presence of G1 and F1 faults. Electromagnetic ground conductivity prospecting shows that the high conductivity zones of 15 mS/cm or more are distributed at underground of the G1 and F1 faults where saline groundwater is discharged. The distribution patterns of tritium concentration show that high tritium concentration zones of groundwater were recharged from pond and river. On the assumption that the annual average tritium concentration of precipitation in Northeast Thailand is same as tritium concentration of precipitation in Tokyo and groundwater flows as piston flow, the age of recharging precipitation of groundwater with 15 TU in 1997 could be estimated at 1967-1970 years. The velocity of groundwater flow was calculated to be $5.3{\times}10^{-7}\;m/s\;and\;2.1{\times}x10^{-6}\;m/s$ respectively from a duration time of 30 years and distance of groundwater flow 500m -2000m from the pond and river to the investigation wells. Because the estimated values of velocity of groundwater flow are compatible with the hydraulic conductivities, it is considered that 30 years is a reasonable period for recharging groundwater.

  • 처분 용기 부식 후 유출된 방사성 핵종은 지하수 유동 경로를 따라 이동하게 된다. 따라서 지하 암반내 지하수 유동 평가는 처분 안전성 평가를 위한 기본적인 요소라 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 처분 시스템 폐쇄 후 미래 특정 시점에서 지형의 변화가 지하수 유동 경로에 끼치는 영향을 다공질 매질에서의 지하수 유동 해석 코드인 NAMMU를 이용한 평가를 통해 확인해 보았다. 단열에 인접한 지역에 가상의 처분 시스템을 선정하고 처분 시스템 주위에 존재하는 단열의 재활성화가 발생하는 경우 처분장으로부터의 지하수 유동에 끼치는 영향을 정량적으로 평가해 보았다.

  • 방사성 폐기물 처분장 주변의 지하수 유동 현상을 이해하기 위해 정상상태에서의 지하수 수치모델을 수립하였다. 지하수 수치모델은 절점과 부재로 구성된 network에 의해 균질, 비균질, 다층매질에서 지하수 흐름을 조사하는데 이용되었고 모델의 수치해는 해석해와 일치하는 결과를 가졌다. 또한 지하매질의 수리학적 특성과 균열지역의 영향에 의한 지하수 유동의 물리적 변화현상도 조사되었다. 처분장 주변의 지하매질에 대해 구성된 network과 계산된 지하수 속도의 방향을 이용하여 지하수의 가능한 이동경로를 산정하는 방법이 개발되어 방사성 폐기물 처분장에서 생태계로의 가능한 지하수의 이동속도 및 시간을 예측하였다.
