  • This study reports the serial use of a 3-D hydrodynamic model, EFDC-Hydro and a dynamic water quality model WASP7.2 that are maintained by USEPA. The 48 km section of the Geum River downstream between Daechung Dam and Gongju was selected as a sample study site. Topographical information was used to accurately represent morphology of the study site and boundary conditions were derived from governmental databases including WAMIS by Ministry of Land and Ocean and WEIS by Ministry of Environment. EFDC-Hydro was successfully calibrated for observed water level and WASP was calibrated using monthly observed water quality data obtained from the above sources. It was found that the current water quality target of BOD for the Geum River-H point could not be met on monthly basis though every other tributary of the area would meet its own water quality target as assigned in Korean TMDL. This study proposed the new target BOD water quality for the Gabcheon and Mihocheon as 4.3 and 3.6 mg/l, respectively so that the Geum River-H point can meet the target. When Sejong City is constructed, it is estimated that effluent discharge limit of BOD must be less than 4.5 mg/l to meet water quality of the point. This study shows that it is possible to carry out more precise modeling considering both water movement and water kinetics by using EFDC and WASP simultaneously.

  • Selecting Daechung Dam as a sample study site, this study simulates virtual water quality incident which can be occurred using EFDC maintained by USEPA. In order to predict the behavior and diffusion of leaked conservative pollutant within dam under the worst condition, the hydrological data and information from 2008 were used. EFDC was successfully calibrated for observed water level obtained from the above sources. From the results of simulations, even though the concentrations (500 ppm, 1,000 ppm and 10,000 ppm) of leaked pollutant were different with each other at the same sources, the travel time of each peak concentration appeared similar. Also, changing the leak source point from dam gate(0 km) to 7 km, it was found that as leak source point was nearer to the dam gate, the travel time of each peak concentration showed up sooner. It was simulated to take 1 day to 15 days for initial appearance of the leaked pollutant according to the leaked points, and 3 days to 25 days for the reach of the peak concentration, respectively.

  • 본 연구에서는 금강의 하류부의 시간적 공간적 수질변화를 자세하게 분석하기 위하여 3차원 수리동역학 모델인 EFDC 와 비정상상태 수질모델인 WASP 7.2와 를 연계 적용하였다. 본 연구의 대상 구간은 금강하류 부중 대청댐 조절지 방류구 지점부터 공주의 정안천 유입 직전까지 총 48km의 구간이다. 하천의 수심별 수질은 일정하다고 가정하였으나 폭방향의 수질은 좌 중 우로 3개의 소구간으로 나누고 하천의 흐름 방향으로 나누어 전체적으로는 2차원적으로 구분하였다. 하천의 바닥 형상을 이용하여 모델 격자를 구성하였으며 수리모델은 건교부의 수위자료를 이용하여 보정하였고 수질자료는 환경부의 수질측정망 자료를 이용하여 보정하였다. 2차원 수리동역학-수질 연계모델링 결과, 대전 갑천이 유입되고 난 후의 청원지점에서 그리고 청주지역의 영향을 포함하는 미호천이 유입되고 난 연기 지점 그리고 본 연구의 최하류인 공주지점에서는 하천의 폭 방향으로 상당한 수질 차이가 있음을 확인하였다. 이는 대전 갑천 또는 청주 미호천 등이 유입된 이후 효과적으로 혼합되지 않는다는 것을 의미한다. 이는 해당지역의 수질시료 채취 위치에 따라 수질에 현격한 차이가 있을 수 있다는 것을 나타내며, 현재 환경부 수동측정망의 시료채취 방법을 고려하여 볼때 하천수질의 대표성을 나타낼 수 있는가 하는 문제의 차원에서 매우 심각하게 받아들여져야 할 것으로 생각된다. 한편, 현재 우리나라에서 시행되고 있는 오염총량관리제나 대부분의 환경영향평가에서는 하천의 폭 방향의 수질 차이에 대한 고려가 전무하며 이에 대한 전면적인 재검토가 시급하다고 판단된다.
