Abstract

Lately multipurpose dam is required to consider various interests such as quality, ecological environment as well as flood control, water supply, hydropower generation, etc. The objective of this study is to investigation and analysis of water temperature in the areas where there are social conflicts due to cold water outflow. In this study, we monitored water temperature of Juam regulation dam, downstream river, Suncheon bay in a long term period and performed comparative analysis on a change of water temperature in downstream river and Suncheon bay by using three-dimensional numerical mode (EFDC) considering various external factors such as water outflow amount. The result of monitoring and numerical modelling indicates that effects of cold water outflow takes place from april to september. Also effects of the low temperature discharge of dam was complicatedly altered by various factors such as outflow time and amount, weather and tide level conditions etc. The result of this study can be utilized as a basic data for establishing improvement of dam operation plan to minimize negative effects of dam's cold temperature water outflow to downstream river and coastal area.

최근의 다목적댐 운영은 기존의 홍수조절, 용수공급, 수력발전과 같은 수량뿐만이 아니라 수질, 생태환경 등 다양한 이해관계를 고려하도록 요구받고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 주암조절지댐의 저온 심층수 방류로 인해 사회적 갈등이 있는 지역을 대상으로 수온을 조사하고, 수온변화 특성을 분석하는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 주암조절지댐, 하류하천, 순천만 지역에 대해 장기간에 걸쳐 수온을 모니터링 하였으며, 3차원 수치모형(EFDC)을 활용하여 방류량과 같은 다양한 외부 인자들을 고려하여 하류하천 및 순천만에서의 수온변화를 비교 분석하였다. 모니터링 및 수치모의 결과 댐의 저온 방류수 영향은 대체적으로 4월~9월 기간에 나타나는 것을 알 수 있었으며, 또한 댐 저온수 방류 영향이 방류시기, 방류수온, 방류량, 기상, 조위 등 다양한 인자에 의해 복잡한 형태로 변화한 것을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구의 결과는 댐의 저온수 방류로 인한 하류하천 및 연안지역 악영향을 최소화하기 위한 댐 운영 개선방안 수립시 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
