The vulnerability of urban disasters is increased with the rapid urbanization and industrialization, and the extreme rainfall event is increased due to the global climate change. Urban inundation is also increased due to the extreme rainfall event beyond the capacity limit of facility for the damage prevention. The underground detention vault and the underground drain tunnel are rapidly being utilized to prevent urban inundation. Therefore, the hydraulic review and design analysis of the inlet of the underground facility are important. In this study, the water level of the approach flow according to the inflow discharge is measured and the flow characteristic of the inlet (tangential and spiral) is analyzed. For the spiral inlet, the multi-stage is introduced at the bottom of the inlet to improve the inducing vortex flow at low discharge conditions. In case of the tangential inlet, the discharging efficiency is decreased rapidly with hydraulic jump in the high flow discharge. The rising ratio of the water level in the multi-stage spiral inlet is higher than the tangential inlet, but the stable discharging efficiency is maintained at low and high discharge conditions. And the empirical formula of water level-flow discharge is derived in order to utilize inlets used in this study.

Recently, urban inundation was frequently occurred due to the intensive rainfall exceeding marginal capacity of the flood control facility. Furthermore, needs for the underground storage facilities to mitigate urban flood are increasing according to rapidly accelerating urbanization. Thus, in this study, drainage efficiency in drain tunnel connecting to underground storage was investigated from the air-core measurements in the drop shaft against two types of inlet structure. In case of the spiral inlet, the multi-stage structure is introduced at the bottom of the inlet to improve the vortex induction effect at low inflow discharge (multi-stage spiral inlet). The average cross-sectional area of the air-core in the multi-stage spiral inlet is 10% larger than the tangential inlet, and show the highly air emission effect and the highly inflow efficiency at the high inflow discharge. In case of the tangential inlets, the air emission effect decreased after exceeding the maximum inflow discharge, which is required to maintain the inherent performance of the tangential inlet. From the measurements, the empirical formula for the cross-sectional area of the air-core according to locations inside the drop shaft was proposed in order to provide the experimental data available for the inlet model used in experiments.

Recently the interest about the vortex intakes are rapidly increased because of its performance to drain a plenty of collected storm water at a time. The tangential intake a kind of vortex intakes is very applicable because this type is very simple and little against other types, but it has a big weakness that the vortex flow is not been rarely created below the design discharge. In this study, the characteristics of a tangential intake and two kinds of a newly suggested compound section type intake are analyzed by the 3D numerical modeling based on theories about the control shift and free drainage condition. The analysis focused on the flow condition, flow surface formation, depth-discharge relation, area ratio of air core. Based on this study, the mild-sloped compound section type intake is the optimal, but steep-sloped compound section type is also the optional for the small design discharge.

국지성 집중호우에 따른 도심지 내수 침수 피해의 주원인으로 하수관거의 설계기준을 초과하는 강우가 침수피해의 주요 원인이며, 도심화로 인해 불투수 면적이 증가함에 따라 유출되는 시간이 짧아 저지대의 피해는 불가피하다. 2010년과 2011년에 100년 이상의 강우사상이 서울시에 연이어 나타나면서 집중호우로 인한 피해지역이 유사하게 나타났으며, 광화문 거리의 연이은 침수는 현재 서울시의 하수관거의 용량과 빗물펌프장 및 저류조 시설로 구성된 기존 수방대책의 한계점을 보이고 있다. 이에 서울시는 광화문 일대의 배수능력을 향상시키기 위하여 효자배수분구 빗물배수터널을 계획하고 있다. 일본, 미국 및 유럽 등지에서는 대심도 지하수로 시설에 대한 수리실험 및 수치 연구를 바탕으로 다양한 지하방수로가 건설되어 국지성 집중 강우에 대해 적절히 대응하고 있으나, 국내의 경우에는 대심도 지하방수로 시설에 대한 연구가 미비하여 지하방수로 설계 지침 및 기술적 자료가 부족한 실정이다. 그러므로 대심도 빗물배수터널 시설에서의 흐름특성 분석에 관한 수리실험 및 수치해석 등의 구체적인 연구가 필요하다고 판단된다. 본 연구에서는 수리모형 실험의 물질적 및 시간적 한계를 극복하기 위하여 일반적으로 3차원 유체거동의 특성분석에 많이 사용되는 Fluent 6.3 모형을 이용하여 대심도 빗물배수터널 시설의 접선식 유입구에 대한 흐름특성을 수치모의 하였다. 접선식 유입구 및 수직갱(drop shaft)에 대한 기하 모형의 격자망은 수치해석의 안정성 확보를 위하여 그림 1과 같이 6면체 격자로 구성하였다. 맨홀 내의 다상유동을 고려하기 위하여 VOF(Volume of Fluid) Scheme을 적용하였으며, 수치해석 방법으로는 비정상류, 1st order implicit method를 사용하였다. Fluent에서의 난류 흐름을 계산하는 방법에는 난류 운동에너지와 난류 에너지 소산율 $\epsilon$의 전달 방정식을 도입한 k-$\epsilon$ 난류 모형을 채택하였다.

Many theoretical and experimental studies have been conducted to investigate elements of swirl injector hydrodynamics, such as variations in liquid film thickness or air core diameter. From these studies, some theoretical relationships have been established through an approximate analytical solution of flow hydrodynamics in a swirl nozzle. However, experimental studies on elements such as the stability of internal flow have not produced conclusive results. In this study, the stability of the internal flow under tangential entry conditions was examined by visualizing the formation of the air core in the swirl chamber and measuring the liquid film thickness in the orifice.
