초록

균열암반에서 콜로이드를 동반한 방사성 핵종의 이동을 핵종붕괴사슬과 주변암반으로제한적 분자확산을 고려하여 모사하였다. 암반 내 핵종 이동을 모사하기 위한 핵종이동 시스템과 지배 방정식 및 초기/경계 조건을 설정하여 반 해석해를 도출하였으며, 수치적 라플라스 역변환을통하여 반해석해의 검증을 실시하였다. 유사콜로이드의 반응상수가 균열 내에 미치는 영향과 콜로이드의 여과작용이 핵종이동에 미치는 영향 그리고 주변 암반으로 제한적 확산이 핵종이동에 미치는 영향에 대하여 알아보았다. 지하수 내에 존재하는 유사 콜로이드의 양이 많아질수록 균열 내 방사성 핵종이동의 가속현상이 크게 나타났으며 여과 계수가 모든 핵종에 대하여 $10^{-3}$ (m$^{-1}$)보다 클 경우 여과에 의한 핵종 지연을 무시할 수 없었다. 콜로이드 존재로 인한 핵종가속과 더불어, 주변암반으로 방사성핵종의 분자확산이 제한적일 경우에 예측된 핵종가속현상은 확산깊이가 적을수록 더 커지는 것을 알 수 있었고, 이때 가속에 영향을 주는 유효확산깊이가 존재하는 것을 발견할 수 있었다. 또한 주변암반의 저지계수가 클수록 제한적 확산깊이에 따른 핵종들의 가속범위의 증가를 볼 수 있었다.

To understand the behavior of migration of contaminants in a fractured porous medium is a key to assure the overall safety of a potential radwaste repository. The feasible retention mechanism of contaminant transport in a tinctured medium are sorption of contaminants on solid surface and matrix diffusion of contaminants from a fracture into an adjacent porous medium. The acceleration mechanisms are the migration of contaminants in the form of pseudo-colloids and the limit of a volume f3r matrix diffusion. In this paper, the effects of these two acceleration mechanisms are studied mathematically, then semi-analytically computed by the application of the Talbot theorem and verified. Results indicate that the acceleration processes cannot be neglected in the modeling of contaminant transport in a fractured porous medium.
