Abstract

To evaluate the effects of transportation system operation, usually measures of effectiveness(MOE) such as travel time, space mean speed, stop/delay ratio have been used. But, energy consumption as well as the existing MOE in transportation receives more attention as an alternative MOE in transportation operation. The purpose of this study is a development of procedure, which could measure the relative energy consumption for each alternative and compare the results. A mesoscopic simulator called INTEGRATION is used to evaluate the operation of high occupancy vehicle lane, signal optimization, lane expansion, and the application of ITS. Among those, the application of ITS shows the greatest effectiveness in energy reduction, and then lane expansion, signal optimization, and the operation of high occupancy vehicle lane in the order named. Because we don't consider the characteristics of vehicle class, Potential demand and the simulation time is just for an hour. it is recommended that a procedure for precise economic analysis and an improvement in methodology are needed in the future for the expanded application of this study.

일반적으로 교통운영 시스템에 대한 효과를 평가하기 위해서 구간통행 시간, 통행속도, 지정체율 등과 같은 효과척도(MOE: measure of effectiveness)가 사용된다. 그러나, 에너지에 대한 관심이 극히 높은 상황에서는 기존의 교통측면의 효과척도 이외에 에너지소모라는 효과척도가 교통운영시스템의 MOE로서 대안평가에서 점차로 중요한 영향을 발휘할 수 있다. 본 연구는 교통운영방식별 에너지효율성에 대한 평가를 위해 (기존에 주로 사용되던 효과척도로서의 구간평균속도, 구간평균통행시간, 지정체 뿐 아니라), 에너지 소모 또한 대안평가에 사용할 수 있을 것으로 판단하여, 각 대안별 에너지 소모를 상대적으로 측정하여 볼 수 이는 절차를 개발하고 상호 그 결과를 비교하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 메조모형 시뮬레이터인 Integration이 사용되었으며, HOV 차로 운영, 신호 최적화, 차로 확장, ITS 적용에 대한 대안의 평가를 수행하였다. 이중ITS의 적용이 에너지 절감에 가장 큰 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 차로확장, 신호최적화, HOV 차로 운영 순으로 에너지 절감 효과가 나타났다. 본 연구는 차종에 대한 특성의 고려, 잠재수요에 대한 고려를 하지 않았으며, 분석 기간이 단지 첨두 1시간에 그쳤기 때문에 향후 이러한 현실적 요소에 대한 고려 및 시스템의 확대적용에 있어 보다 정확한 경제성 분석절차 및 방법론적 개선이 요구된다고 하겠다.
