The purpose of this study was to analyze the effects of sewerage facilities through I/I analysis by rainfall by selecting areas where storm overflow diverging chamber is remained due to the non-maintenance drainage equipment when the sewerage system was reconstructed as a separate sewer system. Research has shown that wet weather flow(WWF) increased from 106.2% to 154.8% compared to dry weather flow(DWF) in intercepting sewers, and that the WWF increased from 122.4% to 257.6% in comparison to DWF in storm overflow diverging chamber. As a result, owing to storm overflow diverging chamber of partially separate sewer system with untreated tributary of sewage treatment plant, rainfall-derived infiltration/inflow(RDII) has been analyzed 2.7 times higher than the areas without storm overflow diverging chamber. Meanwhile, infiltration quantity of this study area was relatively higher than that of other study areas. Therefore, it is necessary to reduce infiltration quantity through sewer pipe maintenance nearby river. Drainage equipment maintenance should be performed not to operate storm overflow diverging chamber in order to handle the appropriate sewage treatment plant capacity for rainfall because it is also expected that RDII due to rain will occur after maintenance. In conclusion, it is necessary to recognize aRDII(allowance of rainfall-derived infiltration/inflow) and to be reflected it on sewage treatment plant capacity because aRDII can occur even after maintenance to the complete separate sewer system.

The fans installed in standard Hanwoo loose barns (room size : 10 m (width) $\times$ 5 m (length)) are frequently used to reduce Hanwoo's heat stress during hot weather and to dry the wet floor. However, the most effective method of installing fans has not been suggested yet. Therefore, this study was carried out to evaluate two methods of installing fans under the ceiling of Hanwoo loose barn by using CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) code, FLUENT and to recommend the optimum fan installing method. The fan installation options were fan tilting angles of $45^{\circ}$ and $0^{\circ}$ (horizontal). The fans of 1 m diameter were installed at 3 m above floor. A velocity scale on 10 cm and 110 cm above floor and air flow pattern were used as the parameters to evaluate the fan installing methods. The fans tilted at $45^{\circ}$ angle produced higher wind at 10 cm and 110 cm above floor and more uniform air flow pattern, compared with the fans installed horizontally. Based on these results, fans tilted at $45^{\circ}$ angle may help to reduce Hanwoo's heat stress and will dry the floor better than fans installed horizontally. Therefore, it is suggested that the fans of 1 m diameter in a standard Hanwoo loose barn should be installed at a $45^{\circ}$ tilt angle and 3 m above floor with spacing of 5 m at the center of a room column.

기상은 교통흐름, 운전자의 주행패턴, 교통사고 등 여러 방면에서 도로교통에 영향을 미치는 중요한 요인이다. 본 연구는 기상상황과 노면상태 사이의 관계에 초점을 맞추어 기계학습을 통해 도로의 노면상태를 추정하는 모델을 개발하였다. 노면 상태의 수집을 위해 실험 차량에 노면센서를 부착하여 '건조', '습윤', '젖음', 3가지 범주로 구분된 노면상태 정보를 수집하였고, 이를 추정하기 위한 변수로 도로의 기하구조 정보(곡률, 구배), 교통정보(교통량), 기상정보(강우량, 습도, 온도, 풍속)를 활용하였다. 노면 상태를 예측하기 위한 알고리즘으로는 다양한 기계학습 알고리즘이 검토되었으며, 그 중 가장 높은 정확도를 보인 'Random forest'를 기반으로 한 2단계 분류모형을 구축하였다. 총 16일의 실측 데이터 중 14일의 데이터를 모델을 학습하는 데 활용하였고, 2일의 데이터를 모형의 정확도를 검증하기 위해 사용하였다. 그 결과 81.74%의 검증 정확도를 가지는 노면상태 예측 모델을 구축하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 기상청에서 관측하는 기상정보로 도로의 노면상태를 추정할 수 있다는 가능성을 보여주며, 새로운 장비나 센서를 설치하지 않고도 기존의 기상 관측 정보와 교통정보 등을 활용하여 노면의 상태를 추정할 수 있음을 시사한다.

Damages caused by torrential rain occur every year in Korea and summer time convection can cause strong thunderstorms to develop which bring dangerous weather such as torrential rain, gusts, and flash flooding. On 6 August 2013 a sudden torrential rain concentrated over the inland of Southern Korean Peninsula occurred. This was an event characterized as a mesoscale multicellular convection. The purpose of this study is to analyze the conditions of the multicellular convection and the synoptic and mesoscale nature of the system development. To this end, dynamical and thermodynamic analyses of surface and upper-level weather charts, satellite images, soundings, reanalysis data and WRF model simulations are performed. At the beginning stage there was a cool, dry air intrusion in the upper-level of the Korean Peninsula, and a warm humid air flow from the southwest in the lower-level creating atmospheric instability. This produced a single cell cumulonimbus cloud in the vicinity of Baengnyeongdo, and due to baroclinic instability, shear and cyclonic vorticity the cloud further developed into a multicellular convection. The cloud system moved southeast towards Seoul metropolitan area accompanied by lightning, heavy precipitation and strong wind gusts. In addition, atmospheric instability due to daytime insolation caused new convective cells to develop in the upstream part of the Sobaek Mountain which merged with existing multicellular convection creating a larger system. This case was unusual because the system was affected little by the upper-level jet stream which is typical in Korea. The development and propagation of the multicellular convection showed strong mesoscale characteristics and was not governed by large synoptic-scale dynamics. In particular, the system moved southeast crossing the Peninsula diagonally from northwest to southeast and did not follow the upper-level westerly pattern. The analysis result shows that the movement of the system can be determined by the vertical wind shear.

Combined sewer system (CSS) has been built in the most urban areas across the nation. During dry weather conditions, CSS works fine. But during heavy rain storms, combined sewage frequently overflows into the stream. This study simulated the hydrologic cycle and pollutant loads (BOD, SS, TN and TP) in the Mokgamcheon watershed considering combined sewer overflows (CSOs). PC storm water management model (PCSWMM) was used for continuous simulation and CSOs are considered using the flow divider. Sensitivity analysis, calibration and verification for water quantity and quality are carried out. To verify CSOs, field measurements of CSOs are compared with simulated results. As a result, 41.3% of precipitation flows into the stream directly and 1.1% of water supply flows into stream as CSOs. 6.5% of BOD total loads, 12.0% of SS, 13.6% of TP, and 29.2% of TN are from CSOs. This result will be effective to the integrated watershed management for sustainability.

In order to study the change of pollution loads flowing into Mokpo harbour after the operation of Mokpo Municipal Sewage Treatment Plant (MMSTP) and to evaluate the contribution of MMSTP operation to the improvement of marine water quality of Mokpo harbour, the pollution loads flowing into Mokpo harbour from land in dry weather were surveyed and estimated on the bases of the seasonal flow rates and the seasonal water qualities of streams and effluents located around Mokpo harbour from summer, 1997 to spring, 1998 before the operation of MMSTP, and the pollution loads of the inflow and the effluent of MMSTP were also surveyed and estimated from winter, 1998 to spring, 1999 after the operation of MMSTP. The treatment rates of MMSTP were shown to be about 49% in COD, 76% in TSS, 79% in VSS, 3% in T-N, 7% in DIP, 29% in T-P and -32% in DIN. The change rates of pollution loads flowing into the inner harbour of Mokpo due to the operation of MMSTP were shown to be about 56% In COD, 78% in TSS, 84% in VSS, 45% in DIN, 22% in T-N, 34% in T-P and -14% in DIP. The contribution rates of MMSTP operation to the reduction of total pollution loads flowing into the entire Mokpo harbour were found to be about 3% in COD, 3% in 755,5% in VSS,1% in DIP, 3% in T-P and -1% in DIN.

In this study, the discharging effluents from have been 9 municipal wastewater treatment plants surveyed for 1 year-period. Statistics including probability distribution, cumulative occurrence concentration and other statistical parameters were presented. In addition, treatment performance and its stability were also discussed. Most of the plants, have an operational problem of high soluble organic content in the secondary effluent which may be associated with the integrated treatment of human and livestock manures. Nitrogen concentration in the effluents were usually higher during the period of summer and winter. It was found that this is mainly due to lack of the proper C/N ratio during the summer, or/and the effects of low temperature and less dilution by dry weather during the winter. Phosphorus concentration is sharply increased in June. Discussion with plant operators told that it is due to the dissolution of phosphate from the sludge accumulated in the primary settling tanks from the early spring to june. During this period, usually, sludge treatment line is highly overloaded with flush-outs of the sediments also stored in the bottom of combined sewer due to the low flow during winter season. Most of the plants can meet new effluent discharge limits of the nitrogen and phosphorus, and total coliform without further treatment.

According to previous studies, the increased air temperature can lead to change of thermal stratification structure of lakes and reservoirs. The changed thermal stratification may result in alteration of materials and energy flow. The objective of this study was to predict the effect of climate change on the water temperature and stratification structure of Daecheong Reservoir, located in Geum River basin of Korea, using a three-dimensional(3D) hydrodynamic model(ELCOM). A long-term(100 years) weather data set provided by the National Institute of Meteorological Research(NIMR) was used for forcing the 3D model. The model was applied to two different hydrological conditions, dry year(2001) and normal year(2004). It means that the effect of air temperature increase was only considered. Simulation results showed that the surface water temperature of the reservoir tend to increase in the future, and the establishment of thermal stratification can occur earlier and prolonged longer. As a result of heat flux analysis, the evaporative heat loss can increase in the future than now and before. However, the convective heat loss and net long wave radiation from water surface decreased due to increased air temperature.

건기 때의 합류식 관거 내 고형물의 퇴적으로 인해 통수능이 감소하여 여름철 우기시 국지적인 침수가 발생하며 이로 인해 관거 내 퇴적을 더욱 초래할 수가 있다. 이와 같은 문제를 해결하고 관거 시스템을 효율적으로 관리하기 위해서는 관거 내 고형물 퇴적량을 산정하기 위한 식을 개발할 필요가 있다. 그러나 이러한 산정식을 개발하기 전에 컴퓨터 모형 등을 이용한 고형물 퇴적량을 산정하여야 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 국내 군자매수유역에 대해 MOUSE 모형을 적용하여 관거 내 고형물 퇴적량을 산정하였으며, 이를 미환경보호청(EPA)에서 개발한 산정식을 이용하여 산정한 퇴적량과 검토하였다. MOUSE 모형을 적용하여 산정한 값은 EPA에서 1977년에 개발한 초기의 산정식에 의한 결과보다는 작지만 1984년에 개발된 산정식에 의한 결과보다는 다소 크게 나타나고 있다. 퇴적고형물의 관측자료가 구비되어 있지 않아 모형에 의한 산정치를 비교하기는 곤란하지만 모형에 의해 산정결과가 신뢰성이 있다고 판단되며, 추후 군자배수유역에 대한 산정식을 유도하는데 이용할 수 있다고 본다.

Generally CSOs (Combined Sewer Overflows) are regarded as one of the most serious nonpoint pollution source in the urban watershed, Particularly, the water quality of the Oncheon stream is seriously affected by CSOs because the capacity of interception sewer system connected to the Suyoung wastewater treatment plant is too small to intercept most storm water discharges. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of nonpoint source on an urban stream with regards to combined sewer system and separate sewer system using GIS (Geographic Information System) and SWMM (Storm Water Management Model), and to provide an insight for the management of urban stream water quality. In order to consider the effect of CSOs on the receiving water quality, the flow divider element in SWMM was applied. The model calibration and verification were performed by the measured data of quantity and quality on the Oncheon stream. The quantity data acquired from the Suyoung wastewater treatment plant were also used for this procedure. In case of separate sewer system, the modeling results showed the increased tendency in streamflow compared with the combined system in dry weather, In addition, the water quality is remarkably improved in rainfall events at the separate condition. The results imply that the construction of separate sewer system should be taken into first consideration to restore the quality and quantity of water in urban streams.
