  • 수자원 시스템의 용수공급의 안정도를 평가하는 지표로 국내에서는 이수안전도 혹은 안전채수량(safety degree for water shortage or safe yield)의 개념이 이용된다. 아울러 공급 측면에서는 기준갈수량, 공급신뢰도, 저수용량 등이 분석되고 있으며, 수요 측면에서는 용수공급 보장일수, 최소 부족량, 갈수 조정기간 및 용수부족에 따른 피해정도 등을 고려하고 있다. 전통적으로 수자원 시스템의 평가는 용수공급 실패기간의 통계적 특성을 분석하여 이루어진다. 용수공급 실패기간으로부터 분석되는 통계적 특성은 용수부족 발생빈도, 용수부족 지곡기간 및 용수부족 총 양 등 세 가지로 정량화되는 것이 일반적이다. 수자원 시스템이 수요를 만족시키는 정도인 신뢰도(reliability), 용수부족 발생 후 얼마나 빨리 회복하는지를 나타내는 회복도(resilience) 및 용수부족의 양적 크기를 나타내는 취약도(vulnerability)의 지표는 앞서 언급된 세 가지 통계 특성으로부터 계산된다. 본 연구에서는 Copula 기반 이변량 빈도해석 개념을 적용하여 댐 용수공급 취약성 평가 방법을 개선한 후, 국내 남강 댐 유역의 용수공급 취약성을 평가해보고자 한다. 이를 위해, 국내외에서 이용되고 있는 용수공급 평가지표들의 특성들을 정리하였다. 다음으로는, 취약성 평가 방법에 Copula 기반 이변량 빈도해석 방법을 적용하는 방법을 제안하였다. 본 연구의 분석은 용수공급 실패 사상을 기준으로 수행되었으며, 용수공급 실패 사상의 발생확률은 포아송 분포, 총 부족량은 대수정규분포로 모의되었다. 최종적으로는 남강 댐의 재현기간별 취약성 평가 결과를 도출하여 본 연구에서 제안한 취약성 평가방법의 적용성을 검증하였다.

  • Water management agencies under the Ministry of Environment produce and accumulate qualified basic data for major rivers. However, the integrated management of the river water has been weak since the artificial water circulation process, such as the intaking and drainage of agricultural water, has not been examined in the basin, which includes many agricultural land. In this study, a study was conducted on how the power usage method (operating time method) based on the running time can be applied and improved among indirect flow rate measurement methods used to investigate flow rates collected by the riverside for agricultural water purposes, and thus the resultant data of high reliability can be obtained at low cost. The operation time method is suitable for small-scale water pumping stations where it is difficult to secure real-time power supply data. The reliability of the data was verified through the correlation analysis with the actual flow rate, and it was found that the flow rate calculated by the operation time method reflecting the level of the stream to which the inlet of the pumping station is connected can be reasonably matched with the actual flow rate. In addition, it was confirmed that the investment cost at the time of initial installation of the facility was highly efficient by generating qualified flow data at low cost through comparison with direct flow rate measurement methods. If flow data is secured by applying the operation time method to large and small water farms located along the riverside, it is expected that more quantitative and integrated stream water management will be possible.

  • At present, the low-voltage, high-current type power supply is mainly used for effective sterilization in the ballast water treatment system. Research on PSFB converters without output capacitors has been ongoing. Such converters effectively treat ballast water without a separate disinfectant through electric pulses by applying a pulse-type power to the output electrode without an output capacitor. However, in the case of the pulse-type electrolysis treatment method, voltage overshoot can occur due to abrupt voltage fluctuations when the load changes, resulting in circuit reliability problems because of the output capacitorless system. Therefore, a new voltage control algorithm is required. In this paper, we will discuss voltage control for pulsed electrolysis topology without an output capacitor. The proposed voltage control method has been verified using Simulation and experiment. The usefulness of the proposed control method has been proven by the experimental results.

  • The uses of stage-storage curve function are diverse in irrigation reservoirs. The curve functions would be used to determine the optimal size of spillway length and the inundation area above full water level based on the flood routing in reservoirs. In addition, the curve function would he used to transform the stage to the storage for the reservoir water management, in which the storage is the supply water. Besides those, the curve is necessary for the planning of dredging, the estimation of the effective and the dead storage, the drought management by reservoir, etc. The curve function data, however, are almost unavailable for these purposes. According to the statistics, about 74% of the 2, 900 resevoirs which are maintained by Farm Land Improvement Association have no more effective data. Therefore, the simulation of the curve function could be better alternative. The curve functions were simulated derivating the regression equations based on the basin relief ratio and the effective depth. The results of the verification show the enough reliability of the application to generate the curve function in some reservoirs which do not have the surveyed stage-storage data. Also, even though the averaged curve function would be applicated without the basin relief ratio data, the result shows that the simulated curve is closer to the real one than the linear function by only the existing effective storage data.

  • The purpose of this study was to survey Suwon citizens over the age of 20 in order to provide basic data on the extent of coverage of the city's water reclamation system and to set guidelines for a policy on water reuse. The survey used a questionnaire with two fields, rainwater use and wastewater recycling, for analyzing factors that influenced water reuse. A factor analysis of 19 questionnaires gave a Cronbach's alpha coefficient greater than 0.4. Factors that influenced rainwater use were environmental protection, water charges, and the risk of climate change. Of the total explanatory power, the share of rainwater use and environmental protection was 39.7% and 28.1% respectively. Environmental protection (explanatory power 24.2%) had an effect on the explanatory power of wastewater reuse. When factors influencing wastewater recycling, like cost of recycling, water management policy, climate change, and suspension of tap water supply were included, the explanatory power of each of these factors went up by 4.3%, 2.8%, 3.3%, and 1.1%, respectively. For more effective wastewater recycling, a water management policy that factors in the above is required, along with a campaign to educate citizens on water management and environment conservation. Additionally, it may be necessary to improve the reliability and the quality of water supply.

  • In order to introduce to engineers the suitable calculation techniques of TBM advance rate (ad.) and ultimately promote to understand the designing process, this study was carried out. We analyzed the 17 bored data of TBM which applied to the roadway and water supply tunnels in Korea. From this analysis, it was able to how that the average utilization is 30.83% md the correlation equation of Ad and TBM´s diameter (D) is Ad(m/month) = 506.05ㆍ $e^{-0.1162}$$\times$D than the correlation coefficient ($R^2$) is 0.76. In the object of the W tunnel of Seoul-Busan highspeed railway, the Ad of TBM 5.0mø was analyzed by the variety of empirical models and upper correlation equation. Average Ad of the empirical models was calculated to be larger than one of the upper equations. But considering only the results of 3.0~5.0mø TBM in the 17 bored data, the average Ad by the models belongs to the similar range of bored data. Therefore, when the reliability and representative of parameters are decreased, a reliability test should be carried out through the comparison a variety of empirical models with the upper correlation equation.

  • 신뢰도를 이용하여 댐의 물 공급 안전도를 정의하였다. 그리고 보장 공급량 분석에 의한 댐의 물 공급 안전도 평가 절차를 제안하였고, 소양강댐과 충주댐의 물 공급 안전도를 평가하였다. 여러 묶음의 월 유출 시계열을 모의발생시키기 위하여 SAMS-2000을 사용하였고, 보장공급량 결정을 위한 저수지 모의운영에는 HEC-5가 사용되었다. 50년 계획 기간에 대하여 설계 유출자료에 의한 소양강댐 보장 공급량의 물 공급 안전도는 $80.5\%$로 평가되었고, 준공 후 기록 유입량에 의한 보장 공급량의 물 공급 안전도는 $53.7\%$였다. 기록 유입량 자료의 보장 공급량(15.85억 $M^3/yr$)을 계획 공급량으로 하면 연간 0.94억 $m^3 $의 용수를 추가 공급할 수 있다. 충주댐의 설계 유출자료에 의한 보장 공급량 34.22억 $M^3/yr$를 계획 공급량으로 하면 모든 시계열에 대하여 반드시 물 부족이 발생하였다. 이는 설계 당시 유입량의 과대평가에 기인한다. 제안된 절차를 적용하면 보다 객관적으로 댐의 물 공급 안전도를 평가할 수 있다.

  • 우리나라의 경우 여름철에 강우가 집중되는 특성 및 기후변동을 체감하고 있는 현 시점에서 수자원 시스템을 효과적으로 관리하는 것은 점차 중요해지고 있다. 그러나 IPCC의 미래 기후변화 예측 시나리오는 특정 복사강제력에 기반을 하기에 그 자체만으로도 불확실성이 존재하며, 전 지구적 모형을 활용하는 점에서 우리나라 기후변화 예측 정확성이 저하될 가능성이 있다. 장래 수자원 공급의 의사결정 객관성 및 체계를 확보하고 위에 제시된 단점을 보완하기 위하여, 본 연구에서는 Decision-Scaling을 적용하여 댐 이수안전도를 분석하였다. 연구지역은 충주, 용담, 합천, 섬진강댐을 선정하였다. 기후스트레스 시나리오는 총 91개(순위 기반 강우 스트레스 시나리오 13개 및 0℃에서 6℃까지의 7개 온도 스트레스 시나리오)를 1995년부터 2014년까지 관측된 자료를 바탕으로 구축하였다. 수문모형(IHACRES)과 저수지모형(HEC-ResSim)을 결합하여 이수안전도 분석 모형을 개발하였다. 모형의 검정은 과거 댐 유입량과 비교하였으며, 개발된 모형은 매우 높은 정확도(R2≥0.81)를 보여, 과거 사상에 대한 모의가 가능한 것으로 평가 되었다. 본 연구의 결과로 여름철 강우 변동이 온도와 비교하여 용수공급에 더 큰 영향을 주는 것으로 평가 되었다. (i) 강우와 온도가 동시에 변화하는 시나리오와, (ii) 개별적으로 변화하는 시나리오에 대한 이수안전도의 합과 비교하여, (i)의 경우가 이수안전도에 더 큰 영향 주는 것으로 평가되었다. 이러한 결과는 여름철 강수량의 감소와 증가로 인해 각각 물과 에너지가 제한된 실제증발산이 발생한 것으로 사료된다. 본 연구의 결과는 미래를 포함한 기후 스트레스 발생 시 효율적인 댐 관리 및 운영을 위한 의사결정에 활용 될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
