여러 개의 층으로 구성된 토양층에서 연속주입 추적자시험을 수행하여, 불포화대와 포화대 구간에서의 수리분산특성 차이를 추적자의 농도이력곡선, 시간에 따른 농도변화 및 농도변화율, 그리고 거리에 따른 농도비 분석을 통해 비교 연구하였다. 연속주입 추적자시험에 의하면, 약 160시간이 경과된 후에 불포화대와 포화대에서 Rhodamine WT 최대농도의 차이는 약 $13{\sim}15$배 정도에 달하였고, 시험시간 대 추적자 농도증가율의 차이는 약 10배 정도로 나타났다. 또한 시간에 따른 추적자 농도이력곡선의 변화와 농도변화율이 불포화대에 비하여 포화대에서 크게 나타났다. 주입공에서의 이격거리에 따른 추적자의 농도비는 포화대 구간에서 더 빠르게 선형적으로 감소하였으며, 그 이후에 농도비가 2배 이하로 완만해 지는데 걸린 시간은 포화대 구간이 더 길었다. 이러한 차이들은 여러 개의 층서로 구성된 토양층의 포화대에서는 지하수가 존재하며, 또한 매질의 불균질성이 크고 투수성이 다양하기 때문에, 비교적 균질한 층서를 이루는 불포화대에 비하여 추적자 용액의 농도는 낮고, 추적자의 확산이 느리게 진행되어진데서 기인하였다. 그리고 포화대 구간에서의 유효공극율은 $10.19{\sim}10.50%$, 종분산지수는 $0.80{\sim}l.98m$, 횡분산지수는 $0.02{\sim}0.04m$의 범위로 산정되었으며, 실내주상시험의 종분산지수와 비교할 때 12배 이상의 규모종속효과가 나타났다.

This study dealt with the characteristics and the interrelations of hydrogeological parameters such as hydraulic conductivity, dispersivity and effective porosity of unconsolidated sediments for providing the basic data necessary for the planning of the management and preservation of groundwater quality in the Nakdong River Delta of Busan City, Korea. Groundwater quality in this area has been deteriorated due to seawater intrusion, agricultural fertilizer and pesticide, industrial wastewater, and contaminated river water. The physical properties (grain size distribution, sediment type, sorting) and aquifer parameters (hydraulic conductivity, effective porosity, longitudinal dispersivity) were determined from grain size analysis, laboratory permeability test and column tracer test. Among 36 samples, there were 18 Sand (S), 7 Gravelly Sand (gS), 5 Silty Sand (zS), 5 Muddy Sand (mS), and 1 Sandy Silt (sZ). Hydraulic conductivity was determined through a falling head test, and ranged from $9.2{\times}10^{-5}$ to $2.9{\times}10^{-2}cm/sec$ (0.08 to 25.6 m/day). From breakthrough curves, dispersivity was calculated to be 0.35~3.92 cm. Also, effective porosity and average linear velocity were obtained through the column tracer test, and their values were 0.04~0.46 and 1.06E-04~6.49E-02 cm/sec, respectively. Statistical methods were used to understand the interrelations among aquifer parameters of hydraulic conductivity, effective porosity and dispersivity. The relation between dispersivity and hydraulic conductivity or effective porosity considered the sample length, because dispersivity was affected by experimental scale. The relations between dispersivity and hydraulic conductivity or effective porosity were all in inverse proportion for all long and short samples. The reason was because dispersivity was in inverse proportion to the groundwater velocity in case of steady hydrodynamic dispersion coefficient, and groundwater velocity was in proportion to the hydraulic conductivity or effective porosity. This study also elucidated that longitudinal dispersivity was dependent on the scale of column tracer test, and all hydrogeological parameters were low to high values due to the sand quantity of sediments. It is expected that the hydrogeological parameter data of sediments will be very useful for the planning of groundwater management and preservation in the Nakdong River Delta of Busan City, Korea.
