Abstract

We have determined the optimal pumping rate of the PW-2 water well (depth=100 m) at Imgokri, Sangju City. Cutting analysis and geophysical logging data reveal water-producing horizons at 26.1-26.5, 28.0-30.0, 33, 58, and 71 m. For pumping rates of 40, 55, 70, 90, and $132m^3/d$ over 70 days, the estimated drawdown from the PW-2 well was 6.48, 11.56, 18.07, 28.99 and 60.26 m, respectively. During a constant-rate pumping test at a rate of $117m^3/d$, the cone of depression intersected an impermeable boundary after 120-150 min of pumping. Therefore, we consider the critical pumping rate for well PW-2 to be $90m^3/d$. After pumping at $90m^3/d$ for 70 days, the calculated drawdown was 28.82-31.27 m. We suggest an optimal pumping rate for well PW-2 of $70-90m^3/d$, as the optimal pumping rate should be similar to the critical pumping rate. Sharp increases in the slope of the time-drawdown relationship, dissolved oxygen concentrations, and oxidation-reduction potential during the constant-rate pumping test indicate the limited development of bedrock aquifers around PW-2.

상주시 임곡리에 굴착된 심도 100 m 지하수공(PW-2)의 적정양수량을 산정하였다. 시추코아와, 물리검층 자료에 의하면 지하수 산출 심도는 26.1~26.5, 28.0~30.0, 33, 58, 71 m로 해석된다. 단계양수시험에 의하면 40, 55, 70, 90, $132m^3/d$의 양수량으로 70일간 양수시 수위강하량은 각각 6.48, 11.56, 18.07, 28.99, 60.26 m로 예상되었다. $117m^3/d$으로 250분간 실시한 일정량양수시험에서는 양수 경과시간 120~150분에 영향추가 불투수층 경계조건에 도달하여 급격한 수위강하가 일어나 PW-2의 한계채수량은 $90m^3/d$로 산정하였으며 이때의 수위강하량은 28.82~31.27 m이다. 적정양수량은 한계채수량의 범위내의 정류상태여야 하기 때문에 PW-2의 적정양수량은 $70{\sim}90m^3/d$로 제시하였다. 불투수층 경계조건에서 직선의 기울기가 급해지며 지하수의 DO와 ORP가 증가하는 것으로 보아 PW-2를 중심으로 한 기반암지하수의 발달은 제한적인 것으로 추정된다.
