Abstract

This study analyzed the characteristics of sea water transport between Busan New-port and the Nakdong River estuary. A current meter was placed on a pier bridge and the current velocity was analyzed to determine the flow direction. Water temperature, salinity, turbidity, and tide were also measured to determine the characteristics of sea water and to describe the tidal current between the two regions. The results indicated that the dominant outflow direction of the ebb tidal current was from the Nakdong River estuary to Busan New-port. Conversely, during a flood tide, the dominant direction was from Busan New-port to the Nakdong River estuary. The maximum current speed during the first and second field measurements was about 13.18 and 30.80 cm/ sec, respectively. During the first field measurement, the total volume of sea water transport was $184.71\;m^3/sec$ and the residual volume transport was $+59.74\;m^3/sec$. By contrast, during the second field measurement, the respective values were $331.15\;m^3/sec$ and $28.88\;m^3/sec$.

신항과 낙동강 하구역의 접점인 연결잔교를 통해 소통되는 해수의 수리적인 특성을 파악하기 위하여 연결잔교부에서 현장관측을 실시하고 두 해역간의 상호작용을 해석하고자 하였다. 현장조사 결과로서 연결잔교상의 최대 유속은 1차관측시 13.18 cm/sec, 2차관측시 30.80 cm/sec를 나타내었다. 해수소통량 계산결과는 1차 관측기간 동안 단위시간당 해수소통량은 $184.71\;m^3/sce$이고, 잔차해수소통량은 $59.74\;m^3/sec$로 신항만에서 낙동강 하구역 방향으로 유출되었다. 또한 2차 관측기간 동안 단위시간당 해수소통량은 $331.15\;m^3/sec$이고, 잔차해수소통량은 $28.88\;m^3/sec$로 낙동강 하구역에서 신항만 방향으로 유출되었다.
