  • The Samcheonpo ocean small hydropower plant (SHP) has a special feature of using marginal hydraulic head of circulating water system of fossil fuel power plant as a power source and having the characteristics of general hydropower generation and tidal power generation as well. Also, it contributes to reducing green house gases and developing clean energy source by recycling circulating water energy otherwise dissipated into the ocean. The efficiency of small hydropower plant is directly affected by effective head and flow rate of discharged water. Therefore, the efficiency characteristics of ocean hydropower plant are analyzed with the variation of water level and flow rate of discharged water, which is based on the accumulated operation data of the Samcheonpo hydropower plant. After the start of small hydropower plant operation, definite rise of water level was observed. As a result of flow pattern change from free flow to submerged flow, the instability of water surface in overall open channel is increased but it doesn't reach the extent of overflowing channel or having an effect on circulation system. Performance evaluation result shows that the generating power and efficiency of small hydropower exceeds design requirements in all conditions. Analysis results of CWP's water flow rate verify that the amount of flowing water is measured less and the highest efficiency of small hydropower plant is achieved when the effective head has its maximum value. In conclusion, efficiency curve derived from water flow rate considering tidal level shows the best fitting result with design criteria curve and it is verified that overall efficiency of hydropower system is satisfactory.

  • Small hydropower, one of renewable energies, is the clean energy which emits no carbonic acid gas. It has noting to do with global warming. It is a useful resource to contribute to the dispersion of power. Because of ballooning oil prices, the need for small hydropower is increasing. Recently small hydropower development using dams, small rivers, reservoirs, water pipes, sewage treatment plants and cool ing water of thermal power plants is conducting. By suggesting the strategy of the enlargement revitalization of small hydropower development, we hope to waken the people's interest in the small hydropower

  • 최근 국내에서는 수량, 수질 등 기후변화로 인한 다양한 수자원 문제에 효율적으로 대응하기 위한 통합물관리 체계가 점차 고도화되고 있으며, 특히 친환경적인 관점에서 이미 개발된 수자원시설물의 탄력적인 활용 방안이 주목받고 있다. 이처럼 용수를 사전에 확보하고, 적시에 공급하기 위한 대표적인 수자원 관리 시설로 다목적댐, 용수전용댐 등이 가장 잘 알려져 있으나, 지난 2021년 '한강수계 발전용댐 다목적 활용 협약'을 기점으로 발전용댐 또한 기존의 수력발전 용도를 넘어 수자원 관리 기여도가 한층 높아지게 되었다. 댐에서는 가뭄 발생시 구체적인 가뭄단계 파악 및 용수공급량 조절을 통해 용수공급을 조절해야 한다. 이미 다목적댐 및 용수전용댐의 경우 가뭄대응을 위한 용수공급 운영기준이 마련되어 적용 중에 있으나, 최근에 다목적 활용이 추진된 발전용댐의 경우 구체적인 관련 기준이 마련되어 있지 않은 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 기존 다목적댐 및 용수전용댐 운영기준을 참고하여, 발전용댐의 가뭄단계별 기준저수량 산정 방안 및 용수공급 조정 방안 등을 제시하였다. 제시된 방법은 국내 대부분의 발전용댐이 위치한 한강수계 발전용댐을 대상으로 적용하였으며, 지난 2014~2017년 발생한 가뭄사례를 바탕으로 그 적용 효과를 분석한 결과, 대상 발전용댐의 용수공급 안정성이 개선되는 효과를 확인하였다. 수자원의 효율적인 이용을 위한 발전용댐의 역할은 점차 중요해질 것으로 예상되며, 본 연구 결과는 발전용댐을 활용한 용수공급 관련 연구에 폭넓게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

  • Building Information Modelling (BIM) has evolved into a comprehensive, collaborative method in construction project delivery. Most industrialized and developed countries have made BIM mandatory in the government and public projects, whereas developing countries are embracing and catching up BIM technologies to improve their professional's abilities and reduce claims in the construction projects. However, BIM awareness and professional's competence have become critical in implementing BIM in infrastructure projects in Nepal, particularly hydropower projects. The objectives of this study are to find the BIM awareness among hydropower professionals in Nepal and assess their response. The study used a questionnaire survey to assess the awareness. The results showed that only few professionals (12 percentage in this study) are aware of BIM and its application in Hydropower infrastructures. Majority of the respondents (more than 50%) were interested in BIM trainings and believed BIM implementation in future projects. The study indicated that lack of BIM training and lack of BIM awareness were the top factors affecting BIM implementation in hydropower projects in Nepal. The findings showed that about 66 percent of the respondents who used BIM in their projects mainly used during construction phase. More than 80 percent believed that BIM should be mandated for the hydropower projects in Nepal. The findings presented in this study could promote awareness among different professionals, organization, and construction team and encourage BIM implementation in Hydropower projects. The findings could raise awareness of BIM in Nepal's infrastructure sectors and its invaluable benefits in construction.

  • This research summarizes the generating factors of greenhouse gas (carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide) in hydropower dams and related domestic/foreign researches. Microorganisms and eutrophication are the main factors in greenhouse gases in hydropower dam reservoirs. The greenhouse gas emission from the hydropower dam is affected by meteorological factors and dam operation periods, and greenhouse gases are also emitted from the outlets. The fluxes of greenhouse gas emission from the hydropower dams were -926~180,806 mg CO2 m-2d-1, -0.19~3800 mg CH4 m-2d-1, and 0.01~16.1 mg N2O m-2d-1. In South Korea, the study on the greenhouse gas emission from Korean hydropower dams has been rarely, and therefore it is inquired. This research suggested the methods on the greenhouse gas emission from Korean hydropower dams and flux calculation.

  • The output performance characteristics for surveyed sites were analyzed, using developed model. It consists of two main parts, the deciding flow duration characteristic of river and performance prediction model to estimate the output characteristics of small hydropower plants. As a result, It was found that the flowrate concerning with 25% of time ratio on flow duration curve can be selected to design flowrate of small hydropower plants, and the output characteristics of small hydropower plants having overflow dam are different from large scale hydropower plants.
