The design methodology of the sluice caisson structure is one of important factor that is closely related to the efficiency in tidal power generation. When the sluice caisson is designed to maximize the water discharge capability, it is possible to minimize the number of sluice caissons for attaining the water amount required for achieving the target power generation, which results in reduction of the construction cost for the sluice caisson structure. The discharge capability of sluice caisson is dependent on the geometrical conditions of an apron structure which is placed in both sides of the sluice caisson. In this study, we investigated numerically the variation of water discharge capability of sluice caisson according to the geometrical conditions of apron. Flow fields are simulated with FLOW-3D software using VOF method.

In this study, the results of experimental investigation on the water discharge capability of sluice caisson for tidal power plant were presented. In particular, the focus of the study was placed on the examination of change in water discharge capability of a sluice caisson according to the installation of rubble mound. For this purpose, a hydraulic experiment was carried out in an open channel flume with a great care to the measurement of discharge and water level in the flume since they greatly affects the estimation of the discharge capability of each sluice caisson. In the analysis, the experimental data of four different sluice models were used, which showed that the installation of rubble mound affects in different manner depending on each sluice caisson model. When each of the four sluice models were placed on the rubble mound respectively, the water discharge increased for one sluice caisson, whereas decreased for other three sluice caissons. Further detailed analysis is needed to quantitatively estimate the influence of installation of rubble mound on the water discharge capability of a sluice caisson.

The change of water discharge capability of sluice caisson for tidal power plant according to installation of the rubble mound was investigated by performing laboratory experiment. The experiment was carried out in an open channel flume with a great care to measure flow rate and water level in the flume accurately. Eight different sluice caisson models were used in the experiment. The water discharge capabilities of seven sluice models decreased with respect to the placement of the rubble mound, while increased for only one sluice model. On average, the values of discharge coefficient decreased by approximately 10% when the sluice models were placed on the rubble mound. It is concluded that the shape of the rubble mound can affect the water discharge capability of the sluice caisson, so that its shape should be significantly considered in the design of the sluice caisson, especially when it is deployed in a site of relatively deeper depth.

본 연구에서는 물받이 형상이 조력발전용 수문의 통수성능에 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위한 수치모델링을 수행하였다. 수치모델링은 수문 구조물 자체의 형상은 변화시키지 않고 물받이 폭, 경사 및 수평구간 길이가 다른 경우에 유량계수 값의 차이를 비교함으로써 이루어졌다. 모델링 결과로부터 물받이 형상에 따라서 전반적인 통수성능에 유의미한 차이가 나타나게 됨을 확인하였다. 수문의 통수성능을 최대한 발휘하기 위해서는 수문 구조물 양 측면으로 수문의 폭 만큼 여유를 두고, 경사는 1:5, 수평 구간 길이는 수문 케이슨의 흐름방향 길이와 비슷한 50 m 정도가 되도록 물받이를 설계하는 것이 바람직한 것으로 분석되었다.

An hydraulic experiment was carried out in an open channel flume in order to investigate the water discharge capability of the sluice caisson for tidal power generation, which greatly affects the economical efficiency of the construction of a tidal power plant. To predict the influence of change in the major design parameters relating to the sluice shape on the water discharge capability of the sluice, the experiment was carried out very precisely. The experiment was carried out for the six different sluice models of different widths and bottom heights of the sluice throat section. The experimental data showed that the water discharge generally increased by increasing the width of the throat section if the side shape of the sluice was the same. In addition, the coefficient of discharge was larger when the bottom height of the throat section was higher for the two bottom heights that were tested.

In this study, the influence of methodology of assessing water levels on the discharge coefficient of sluice for tidal power generation was investigated. A physical experiment was performed in a planar open channel by installing 1/70 scale model of the sluice caisson in the planar open channel. In front of and behind the sluice model, sloping bathymetry was made to reproduce corresponding field condition. By analyzing the experimental results, it was found that the location of measuring water levels significantly affects the estimates of the discharge coefficient, due to the variability of the parameter according to the head difference between the measuring locations. Therefore, it is necessary to be careful in estimating and utilizing the discharge coefficient in the relevant study of a tidal power generation.

조력발전용 수문의 성능을 평가하기 위한 평면 수리모형실험을 수행하여 수문의 유량계수 및 수문별 공간적 유속 분포 특성을 규명하였다. 수리모형실험은 평면 개수로에 현장 규모 수문의 1/70 축척 모형 10개를 제작 및 설치하고, 수문 구조물 전 후면에는 Apron 구간을 설치하여 수행되었다. 특히, 유량계수 평가에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 수문 구조물 전 후면에서의 수위 계측위치 및 계측방법을 합리적으로 결정하려고 시도하였다. 실험 유량 및 조위 조건을 변화시키면서 실험을 수행한 결과 본 실험에서의 수문 유량계수는 1.3~1.4로 평가되었다. 한편, 수문 10개 각각의 평균유속을 비교한 결과, 평균유속이 10개 평균값에 비해서 중앙부 수문에서는 2~3% 빠르고, 측면부 수문에서는 4~5% 느린 결과를 얻었다.
