초록

경인아라뱃길은 한강하류와 서해를 잇는 국내 첫 인공운하이다. 아라뱃길 내에는 한강갑문으로부터 유입되는 담수와 서해갑문으로부터 유입되는 해수가 혼합됨으로써 염분 분포 및 성층특성이 발달되면서 복잡한 수리동역학적 특성을 나타낼 수 있으며 그에 따라 수질 특성도 크게 영향을 받을 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구에서는 운하 내의 염분 및 수온을 고려하여 3차원적인 수리동역학적 특성을 예측할 수 있는 EFDC (Environmental Fluid Dynamics Code)모델과 이에 따른 수질현상을 고려할 수 있는 WASP (Water Quality Analysis and Simulation Program)모델을 연계하여 사용함으로써 갑문 운영에 따른 3차원 시공간적 수리 및 수질특성을 예측할 수 있는 시스템을 구축하였다. 해수가 유입되는 서해갑문 측의 수질은 대체적으로 양호한 것으로 나타났으나 한강갑문 방향으로 이동할수록 수질은 점점 악화되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 봄철 및 가을철에 경인아라뱃길 주운수로 내에서는 DO가 2 mg/L 이하로 감소되는 등 빈 산소층이 형성되었으며, 체류시간 증가에 의한 BOD에 의한 DO소모가 가장 큰 원인으로 작용하는 것으로 추정된다. 따라서 운하 내의 빈산소 현상을 제어하기 위해서 자체적으로 BOD 농도를 개선하기 어려운 경우 수체의 체류시간을 단축시켜서 운영하는 방법을 선택하는 것이 바람직할 것으로 판단된다.

Ara Canal is the first artificial canal in Korea that connects the Han River and the Yellow Sea. Due to mixture of waters with different salinity and water quality, complicated hydrodynamic and water quality distributions are expected to occur inside the canal. An integrated hydrodynamic and water quality modeling system was developed using the 3 dimensional hydrodynamic model, EFDC (Environmental Fluid Dynamics Code) and the water quality model WASP (Water Quality Analysis and Simulation Program). According to the modeling results, BOD, TN, TP and Chl-a concentrations inside the canal were lower at the West Gate side than the Han River side since influent concentrations of the West Gate side are significantly lower. Chemical stratification due to salinity difference were more evident at the West Gate side as vertical salinity difference were more pronounced in this area. On the other hand, Chl-a concentrations showed more pronounced vertical distribution at the Han River side as Chl-a concentrations were higher in this area. It was notable that Dissolved Oxygen concentrations can be lower than 2 mg/L occasionally in the middle part of the canal. While major factor affecting DO concentrations in the canal are inflows via both gates, the other important factor was found to be BOD decay in the canal due to extended hydraulic residence time. This study can be used to predict hydrodynamic conditions and water quality in the canal during the year and thus can be helpful in the development of gate operation method of the canal.
