This study concerns a low head and kaplan turbine efficiency measurement using the acoustic scintillation flow meter(ASFM). The ASFM is one of absolute discharge measurement methods because it measures velocity-area of discharge with couples of transducers. This study shows that the highest efficiency of turbine is 87.7% and the efficiency is 85.8% in the rated output(600kW). The test result is reliable because the efficiency trend from this test is similar to the result of index test conducted in 1986. In this paper, the principle, measurement methods, application and test procedures of the test are discussed.

Recently, small hydropower attracts attention because of its clean renewable and abundant energy resources to develop. However, suitable turbine type is not normalized yet in the range of small hydropower and it is necessary to study for the effect ive turbine type. Moreover, relatively high manufacturing cost by the complex structure of the turbine is the highest barrier for developing the small hydropower turbine. Therefore, this study is trying not only, to classify the type of current operating turbines installed in the domestic power plants and turbines supplied in Japan by Japanese manufacturer but also, to examine the practical turbine type and installation site to extract the small hydropower energy effectively.

A depot encircled with contact oxidation canal has been developed to improve water qualityr. The depot is aimed to settle suspended solid in the flow. The oxidation canal is to contact the pollutants and oxygen in the surface of gravel filter to purify the water. The deposit of the pollutant in the depot is released by the drainage culvert located at the bottom of it. Aeration nozzle is installed to supply enough oxygen to the gravel filter layers in the bottom of the detent the flow and improve oxidation efficiency. From the experiment it is founded that 91% of SS, 39% of TN, 63% of TP and 77% of COD were removed in the system. The treatment efficiency of total nitrogen is rather lower than any other components, however, it would be higher when some floating vegetation is added in the primary clarifier. The depot and oxidation canal system would be useful to purify the flows in the mouth of the reservoirs or at the outlet of the drainage canal.

PPCP (pharmaceuticals and personal care products) is known as micropollutant that is released from wastewater treatment plant. Research represents that these contaminants have increased in the last 10 years. This study tries to make four different trickling filter systems using plastic fiber media to remove PPCP such as acetaminophen, ibuprofen, caffeine. The results of the experiment that compares the process efficiencies of four different systems (A, B, C and D) using HBC media show that almost all the reactor has around 95% removal efficiency. Slope type HBC reactor has twice higher efficiency rather than submerged type reactor to remove PPCP in water system. In 8 hours, 89% of acetaminophen, ibuprofen, caffeine are removed in slope type reactor while 39% of them in submerged type.

본 연구는 어도에서의 어류이동의 적합성을 검증하기 위해 어도 수리실험을 통해 흐름에 따른 어류이동을 조사하는 것으로 하였다. 이를 위해 실험은 모형이 아닌 거의 실물에 가까운 원형 수준의 어도를 제작하였다. 물고기는 피라미를 준비하였으며, 어도 내부에 넣고 흐름을 형성시켜 어류의 거동을 비디오로 촬영하였다. 어도 격벽은 두께를 t=0.1m, 어도 폭은 B=1.0m, 격벽간 거리는 L=$1.0{\sim}2.0m$, 격벽간 낙차는 ${\Delta}H=0.1m$로 하여 각 경우에 따른 실험을 실시하였다. 본 연구 결과에 따르면 어류 이동에 효율적인 흐름의 속도는 $1.0{\sim}1.5$(m/s)임을 나타내고 있는데, 이는 기존 피라미의 선호유속(0.8m/s)보다 높은 편으로서, 이는 어류의 상류이동을 위해서는 선호유속보다 약간 높은 유속을 형성시킴으로써 어류가 상류로 이동하려는 의욕을 가지게 하는 것이 중요함을 시사하였다. 상기 실험 결과를 바탕으로 어류(피라미)의 상류 이동에 적합한 계단식 어도는 경사가 1/20이고, 상하류 격벽 단차가 10cm 정도로서 순환류가 약하게 형성되며, 월류 흐름의 속도가 $1.0{\sim}1.5$(m/s)를 유지하는 형태임을 알 수 있었다.

Recently, greenhouse effect by $CO_2$ gas emitted by use of fossil fuel causes earth environmental problem. As a countermeasure of the global warming. micro hydropower under 100kW becomes the focus of attention for its clean and renewable energy sources. Newly developed micro positive displacement hydraulic turbine shows high efficiency and good applicability for the micro hydropoewer. The purpose of this study is to clarify the influence of leakage loss and effective head on the performance of the positive displacement hydraulic turbine for the further improvement of the turbine performance. The results show that the turbine. with a smaller side clearance. has much higher efficiency than that with bigger side clearance and it can sustain the high efficiency under the wider range of operation conditions. The turbine torque is proportional to the effective head and independent of the flow rate. The leakage is also dependent on the effective head but nearly independent of the flow rate.

This paper describes results of modal testing for a high head pump-turbine runner of the Muju pumped storage power plant. The head of the pump-turbine is 601 m and the outside diameter of its runner is 4,410 mm. The modal testing was done for two conditions : 1) the runner in air ; 2) the runner in water. For both conditions, obtained are natural frequencies, corresponding mode shapes and damping ratios. From the testing, it is found that the natural frequencies of the pump-turbine runner in water is reduced approximately 40 % due to additional mass effect of the water.

The propeller type hydro turbine model with vertical axis has been tested and analized. The blade angle of runner of turbine model were designed to be varied according to the condition of head and flowrate. When the changes in head and output were comparatively large, the efficiency drop were small, so the efficiency characteristics and stability of the entire operating condition were maintained in good condition. These results showed that the developed model in this study will be suitable for small hydro power stations with large changes in head and load such as sewage treatment plants and agricultural reservoirs.

댐 제방 붕괴파는 갑작스러운 유량의 증가가 발생하여 불연속적인 흐름특성을 가지는 충격파(shock wave)가 전파되며, 갈수기 저수기에는 중소하천의 상류, 여울과 소에서의 흐름 또는 낙차공이나 보, 댐 여수로 등의 수공구조물에서 부분적인 사류 흐름이 발생된다. 이 때 흐름은 한계수위를 통과하게 되므로 기존 수치해법의 적용에 어려움이 존재한다. 본 연구에서는 실제하천에 적용될 수 있는 1차원 HLL, Roe Riemann 근사해법들을 간단히 소개하고, 시간공간적으로 2차의 고정확도 기법으로 확장하는 방법에 대하여 소개하였다. 각 기법을 정확해가 존재하는 댐붕괴 및 마른하도 전파의 경우에 적용하여 각 기법의 적용성 및 정확성을 비교하였다. 그리고 기존 Lax-Friedrichs 기법과 Lax-Wendroff 기법의 적용결과를 비교하였다. 적용결과 Lax-Friedrichs 기법을 제외한 모든 기법이 정확해와 잘 일치하였으며 특히 HLL 기법을 2차 정확도로 확장한 WAF 기법이 가장 높은 정확도로 계산되었다. 그러나 비선형 생성항이 존재하는 실제하천에 있어서 MUSCL 기법을 이용한 2차 정확도 기법이 합리적일 것으로 판단된다.
