영광부지의 추적자 확산실험결과의 자료동화를 통하여 Gaussian plume 모형의 확산인자의 수정과 추적자 방출률 평가를 수행하였다. 부지 주변의 여러 지점에서 관측한 실험결과에 선형계획법을 적용하여 확산평가에 있어선 가장 불확실성이 크다고 알려진 확산인자를 수정하였다. 원자력 비상시 초기 대응평가에 사용되는 정보 가운데 가장 큰 불확실성을 포함한 선원항 정보를 추적자 농도 분포로부터 추정하였다. 실험 당시의 추적자 방출량을 모른다고 가정하고 Gaussina plume 모형의 예측치와 확산실험의 실측치를 이용한 최소자승법을 적용하여 방출률을 추정하였다. 확산인자를 수정한 후 Gaussian plume 모형의 예측력은 방출점으로 3km 및 8km 떨어진 포집선 두 경우 모두 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 실험당시의 방출률을 모른다고 가정하고 관측지점의 농도에 최소자승법을 적용한 결과 24%이내에서 실제 방출률을 양호하게 추정하고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

A Korean air dispersion modeling software, AirMaster, was developed on a basis of dispersion theories adopted in U.S. EPA's ISC3 (Industrial Source Complex - version 3) model to assess the air quality impact from the stacks. Key characteristics of AirMaster are as follows: 1) The building downwash effect can be easily simulated; 2) The screen, long term, and short term models can be run independently; 3) The input data to run the model such as meteorological and terrain data are supplied automatically from the databases in AirMaster; and 4) The modeling procedure is easy and simple under the GUI window environment. In order to validate AirMaster, comparisons with ISC3 model and Indianapolis tracer experiment were carried out. It was shown that AirMaster was identical to ISCST3 and ISCLT3 models in predicting the 1 hr to annual concentrations from the stack under various stack emission and meteorological conditions. The 1 hr concentrations predicted by AirMaster also showed a good agreement with the Indianapolis tracer measurements.

In this research, mixing behavior of the floating pollutant such as oil spill accidents was analyzed by studying the advection-diffusion of GPS floaters at water surface. The LPT (Lagrangian Particle Tracking) model of EFDC (Environmental Fluid Dynamics Computer Code) was used to simulate the motion of the GPS floater tracer. In the field experiment, 35 GPS floaters were injected at the Samun Bridge of Nakdong River. GPS floaters traveled to downstream about 700 m for 90 minutes. The field data by the GPS floater experiments were compared with the simulation in order to calibrate the parameter of LPT model. The turbulent diffusion coefficient of LPT model was determined as $K_H/hu^*$ = 0.17 from the scatter diagram. The arrival time of peak concentration and transverse diffusion from the simulation results were similar with the experiments from the concentration curves. Numerical experiments for anticipation of damage from floating pollutant were conducted in the same reach of the Nakdong River and the results show that the pollutant cloud transported to the left bank where the Hwawon pumping station is located. For this reason, it is suggested that the proper action should be needed to maintain the safety of the water withdrawal at the Hwawon pumping station.

본 논문에서는 광선 추적기법에서 그림자 검사의 연산량을 줄이는 기법을 제안한다. 그림자 검사는 부드러운 그림자와 같이 실감 있는 영상을 생성하는 경우 광선 추적기법 렌더링 과정 중 매우 큰 비중을 차지한다. 제안하는 방식은 전처리 단계에서 kd-tree를 생성하며 계산한 그림자 정보를 기반으로 렌더링 단계에서 그림자 검사의 컬링 여부를 판별하는 방식으로 기존 렌더링 과정에 작은 변경으로 적용가능하다. 기존의 방식들과 유사하게 광원과 기하학적 구조가 변하지 않는 정적 장면에 적합하다. 사이클 정확도를 갖는 시뮬레이터를 이용하여 제안하는 방법의 유효성을 검증하고 성능을 측정하였으며 실험 결과 제안하는 그림자 컬링 기법으로 최대 17%까지 줄일 수 있다.

Gaussian type models have limitations on predicting a detailed description of the near flow and pollution leads over complex terrains under neutral atmospheric conditions. Also, most models used recently have lack of ability to include atmospheric reactions. The model based on the numerical solution of the time-averaged Navier-Stokes equations and conservation equations needs to be developed to improve the limitations mentioned above. When the model was applied to the Shihwa area where the tracer experiment had been carried out, the simulation results have a great difference from the experimental results. There are two reasons that make the difference between the results by the model and the experiment. First, the Shihwa area is not a complex terrain. Second, meteorological data is insufficient. Therefore, the model should be applied to predict the dispersion of air pollutants over complex terrain rather than flat terrain in order that the model could be verified because the model was developed for the prediction of the dispersion over a complex terrain.

Release rate is one of the important items for the environmental impact assessment caused by radioactive materials in case of an accidental release from the nuclear facilities. In this study, the uncertainty of the estimated release rate is evaluated using Monte Carlo method. Gaussian plume model and linear programming are used for estimating the release rate of a source material. Tracer experiment is performed at the Yeoung-Kwang nuclear site to understand the dispersion characteristics. The optimized release rate was 1.56 times rather than the released source as a result of the linear programming to minimize the sum of square errors between the observed concentrations of the experiment and the calculated ones using Gaussian plume model. In the mean time, 95% confidence interval of the estimated release rate was from 1.41 to 2.53 times compared with the released rate as a result of the Monte Carlo simulation considering input variations of the Gaussian plume model. We confirm that this kind of the uncertainty evaluation for the source rate can support decision making appropriately in case of the radiological emergencies.

Many studies using tracers have been conducted to understand a physical process in a system. Rain-on-snow could accelerate snowmelt processes, which influences the hydrological process in both temperate and polar regions. Hydrological and ecological conditions will be affected by the amount and timing of discharge reaching the bottom of a snowpack. The discharge consists of the rain-on-snow, pore water penetrating into the snowpack and natural meltwater. In this study, after a rain-on-snow experiment, we conducted an isotopic hydrograph separation to distinguish rainwater and pore water from meltwater. Using the isotopic data of snow and meltwater from Lee et al. (2010), two components were separated based on the assumption that rainwater and pore water are new water and natural meltwater is old water. After the second rain-on-snow experiment, the maximum contributions of rainwater and pore water reached up to 69% of the discharge and then decreased. During the study period, the measured total discharge was 4153 L and 40% (based on hydrogen isotope) of rainwater and pore water was calculated in the discharge, which is not consistent with what Lee et al. (2016) calculated using chemical separation (63%). This inconsistency can be explained by how an end-member was defined in both approaches. The contributions of artificial rainonsnow and pore water to melwater discharge range between the two methods. This study will suggest a mixing calculation from isotopic compositions of the Southern Ocean.

Dynamic characteristics of thermally-forced stratification process in a square enclosure with a linear temperature profile at the side walls have been investigated through flow visualization experiment and numerical analysis. The experiment was performed on air with the Rayleigh numbers of order $10^5$. A particle tracer method is used for the flow visualization and to obtain a sudden linear temperature profile at the side walls copper blocks which already have a linear temperature profile are come into contact with the thin copper plates of the test section. Immediately a meridional circulation is developed and heat transfer takes place from the wall to the interior region by circulation of fluid and finally a thermal stratification is achieved. In the numerical study, QUICK scheme for convective terms, SIMPLE algorithm for pressure correction, and the implicit method for the time marching are adopted for the integration of conservation equations. Comparison of flow visualization and numerical results shows that the developing flow patterns are very similar in dynamic nature even though there is a time lag due to the inevitable time delay in setting up a linear temperature profile. For high Rayleigh numbers, the oscillatory motion is likely to take place and stratified region is extended. However, initial temperature adjustment process is much slower than that for low Rayleigh numbers.

본 연구는 $^{13}C$추적자를 사용하여 신구저수지 내 식물플랑크톤에 의한 1차 생산속도를 계산하고, $^{13}C$-GC/MS 기법을 사용하여 광합성을 통해 새롭게 만들어진 지방산의 생성속도를 분석하였다. 유광층 내의 SPM중 POM이 차지하는 비율은 약 76%였으며, 엽록소$-{\alpha}$의 평균 농도는 약 $89{\mu}g\;L^{-1}$이었다. 유광층 단위면적당 엽록소$-{\alpha}$ 총량, 1차 생산력, 엽록소$-{\alpha}$에 의한 탄소 고정 능력은 각각 112mg Chl-${\alpha}m^{-2}$, 3.53g C $m^{-2}\;d^{-1}$, 32mg C mg Chl-${\alpha}^{-1}\;d^{-1}$이었다. 수층 내 입자성유기물의 지방산 조성과 식물플랑크톤 광합성에 의해 새롭게 만들어진 입자성유기물의 지방산 조성이 거의 비슷한 것으로 미루어 보아, 본 연구기간 동안 수층의 입자성유기물은 대부분 식물플랑크톤에 의해 유래된 것으로 판단되었다. 또한 광합성을 통해 만들어진 유기물은 세포외배출 등의 과정을 통해 용존유기물 pool로 이동된 후 박테리아에게까지 빠르게 전달됨으로써, 박테리아에 의한 유기물 소비가 활발하게 일어나고 있는 것으로 판단된다.

과염소산 수용액 중에서 바나듐(III)이온이 산소에 의해 산화되는 반응에 대해서 pH 범위1∼3에 걸쳐 $H_2O^{18}$을 이용한 동위원소 실험을 행했다. 반응속도식$-\frac{d[V(III)]}{dt}=k_1\frac{[O_2][V(III)]}{[H^+]}$가 성립되는 높은 히드로늄이온 농도(pH<∼2)에서는 반응생성물 $VO^{2+}$이온의 산소가 모두 산소분자에서 유래된다는 결과를 얻었다. 반면 $-\frac{d[V(III)]}{dt}=K_2\frac{[O_2][V(III)]^2}{[Ht]^2}$의 속도식이 성립하는 pH>∼2 범위에서의 추적자 실험은 바나딜이온의 산소의 50%가 산소분자에서 온다는 결과를 주었다. 반응속도론의 결과 화학량론적 결정과 아울러 동위원소 실험결과를 고려하면 다음과 같은 반응 메카니즘을 제안할 수 있다.$$V^{3+}\rightleftarrows VOH^{2+} + H+, 2VOH^{2+}\rightleftarrowsV_2(OH)_2^{4+}$$$$ 낮은\PH:\ VOH^{2+}+O_2 \rightarrow V(O_2)OH^{2+}, V(O_2)OH^{2+}+VOH^{2+}\rightarrow 2VO^{2+}+H_2O_2$$$$ 높은\PH:\V2(OH)_2^{4+}+O_2\rightarrow2VO^{2+}+H_2O_2, V_2(OH)_2^{4+}+H_2O_2\rightarrow2VO^{2+}+2H_2O$$
