Total phosphorous removal rate was examined of a subsurface-flow treatment wetland system which was constructed on floodplain in the down reach of the Kwangju Stream in Korea from May to June 2001. Its dimensions were 29 meter in length, 9 meter in width and 0.65 meter in depth. A bottom layer of 45 cm in depth was filled with crushed granite with about 15~30 mm in diameter and a middle layer of 10 cm in depth had pea pebbles with about 10 mm in diameter. An upper layer of 5 cm in depth contained course sand. Reeds(Phragmites australis) were transplanted on the surface of the system. They were dug out of natural wetlands and stems were cut at about 40 cm height from their bottom ends. Water of the Kwangju Stream flowed from a submerged dam into it via a pipe by gravity flow and treated effluent was funneled back into the Stream. The number of reed stems increased from 80 stems/$m^2$ in July 2001 to 136 stems/$m^2$ in September 2001. The hight of stems was 44.2 cm in July 2001 and 75.3 cm in September 2001. The establishment of reeds at early operating stage of the system was good. Volume and water quality of inflow and outflow were investigated from July 2001 through December 2001. The average inflow was 40 $m^3$/day and hydraulic detention time was about 1.5 days. The concentration of total phosphorous n influent and effluent was 0.83 and 0.33 mg/L, respectively. The removal rate of total phosphorous averaged about 60%. The removal efficiency was slightly higher, compared with that of subsurface-flow wetlands operating in North America, whose retention rate of total phosphorous was reported to be about 56%. The good abatement rate could be attributed to sedimentation of particle phosphorous in pores of the media and adsorption of phosphorous to the biofilm developed on the surface of them. Increase of standing density of reeds within a few years will develop root zones which may lead to increment in the phosphorous retention rate.

After large-scale flooding damage occurred along the Imjin river in 1996, 1998, and 1999, the Hantan river flood control dam was planned, and it has since been under construction. Unlike existing dams in Korea, the Hantan river flood control dam will remain fully open except during high floods, when the dam will store flood water temporarily to reduce flood peaks and flood water volume downstream. During past flooding seasons, floating debris has caused difficulties in the management of large-scale dams. Most of the existing multipurpose dams in Korea have installed nets to collect floating debris based on many years of experience with and data about inflow and distribution of floating debris in the dams. For the Hantan river flood control dam, however, collection of data about inflow and distribution of floating debris is not possible as the dam is located near the border area between North and South Korea. In order to devise a preliminary plan to collect floating debris in the Hantan river flood control dam, an EFDC hydrodynamic model was used to analyze the behavior of floating debris during high floods. The Lagrangian particle tracking method was utilized to simulate the behavior of floating debris in the dam. Based on the analysis of paths and final destinations of the particles, seven collection points were selected where it seemed to be effective to collect floating debris, as debris is likely to accumulate there in high density.

가뭄의 피해를 줄이기 위해서는 시기적절한 용수관리와 지역주민의 절수 유도가 필요하며, 이를 위해서는 가뭄의 현황 및 전망에 대한 정보가 무엇보다 중요하다. 특히 생 공용수를 공급하는 다목적댐의 경우 저수량에 대한 향후 전망은 용수관리를 위한 가장 중요한 정보이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 핵밀도함수를 활용하여 유입량의 불확실성을 고려한 확률론적 저수량 예측 모형을 구축하고, 그 적용성과 활용성을 분석하였다. 확률론적 저수량 예측 모형은 현재의 저수량을 기준으로 시간의 변화에 따른 저수량을 확률적으로 예측할 수 있다. 이를 통해 현재의 가뭄상황에서 향후 저수량의 변화 양상을 파악하여 중장기적인 대응이 가능하고 특정시점의 목표 저수량을 달성하기 위한 용수 비축량을 산정할 수 있어 용수관리에 관한 의사결정을 위한 도구로 활용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

We researched the fauna restoration of 5 urban streams in Ulsan established as ecological streams by improving water quality and river environment. The fauna inhabitation were compared according to the conditions of geometrical feature such as river width, low-water channel width, ect and water quality, water volumn, inland and forceland. The Mugeo cheon has clearly shown the fauna restoration effects resulting from supplying sustainable maintenance water and wastewater treatments. In the Yaksa cheon, on the other hand, the restoration effects were low due to the inflow of wastewater and sledges in some part of stream ever though the improvement of water quality. The Yeocheon cheon was found to have disadvantage on the ecological inhabitations due to supplying the maintenance water with highly concentrated salinity. The fauna restoration effect of the Meongjeong cheon was low due to the inflow of wastewater to the down stream. Therefore by supplying the maintenance water and improving the connection to the Taehwa river at the estuary, better restoration effects could be observed. In the Cheokgwa cheon, which is almost a natural river, the ecological integrity of the fauna population has been maintained quite well. It was concluded that the project to transform urban streams into ecological streams should focus on not only keeping water volume and quality but also maintaining favorable conditions for the migration and settlement of animal species close to the natural state.

In this study, a series of numerical analysis has been accomplished on the thermal performance and sectional efficiency of a closed-loop vertical ground heat exchanger (U-loop) in a geothermal heat pump system (GHP) considering the circulating fluid, pipe, grout and soil formation. A finite element analysis program, ABAQUS, was employed to evaluate the temperature distribution on the cross section of the U-loop system involving HDPE pipe/grout/formation and to compare sectional efficiency between the conventional U-loop and a new latticed HDPE pipe system. Especially, the latticed pipe is equipped with a thermal insulation zone in order to reduce thermal interference between the inflow pipe and the outflow pipe. Also, a thermal stress analysis was performed with the aid of ABAQUS. 3-D finite volume analysis program, FLUENT, was adapted to analyze a coupled system between fluid circulation in the pipe and heat transfer and simulate an operating process of the closed-loop vertical ground heat exchanger. In this analysis, the effect of the thermal properties of grout, rate of circulation pump, distance between the inflow pipe and the outflow pipe, and the effectiveness of the latticed HDPE pipe system are taken into account.

This paper presents a series of numerical simulations on the thermal performance and sectional efficiency of a closed-loop vertical ground heat exchanger (U-loop) equipped in a geothermal heat pump system (GHP). A 2-D finite element analysis, ANSYS, was employed to evaluate the temperature distribution on the borehole cross section involving HDPE pipe/grout/soil formation to compare the sectional efficiency between the conventional U-loop and a new latticed HDPE pipe system which is equipped with a thermally insulating latice in order to reduce thermal interference between the inflow and outflow pipes. In addition, a 3-D finite volume analysis (Fluent) was used to simulate the operating process of the closed-loop vertical ground heat exchanger by considering the effect of grout's thermal properties, rate of circulation pump, distance between the inflow and outflow pipes, and the effectiveness of the latticed HDPE pipe system. It was observed that the thermal interference between the two strands of U-loop is of importance in determining the efficiency of the ground heat exchanger, and thus it is highly recommendable to modify the cross section configuration of the conventional U-loop system by including a thermally insulating latice between the two strands.

본 연구에서는 USN 환경하에서 다수 개의 지점교통센서를 신호교차로의 접근로에 설치되어 운전자 안전서비스를 제공할 경우 딜레마구간 검지를 위한 센서의 배치 방법에 대하여 다룬다. 교통 신호가 녹색-황색-적색으로 변동되는 시점에서 딜레마구간에 존재하는 위험차량을 검지하는 시스템에서, 센서의 배치 간격과 초기 위치를 확인하기 위해 미시적 시뮬레이션인 VISSIM을 이용하여 평가하였다. VISSIM에 지점검지기를 다수 개 설치하여 유입교통량의 변화, 설계속도의 변화, 운전자 인지반응시간의 변화를 수행하였다. 그 결과 지점교통센서는 20~27m의 간격으로, 도로의 설계속도에 따라 초기 센서의 위치를 변화하여 설치할 필요성이 있음을 알 수 있었다. 또한 교통량의 변화에 따라 센서의 딜레마구간 검지추세가 다름을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구로 미시적 교통시뮬레이션 기반으로 지점교통센서의 배치를 평가하는 방법의 유용성을 확인할 수 있었고, 향후 USN 서비스의 실현에 있어 기초 자료로 사용될 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.

Phosphorous removal rate and emergent plant growth were examined of a surface-flow constructed treatment wetland system, whose dimensions were 31 meter in length and 12 meter in width. The system was established on floodplain in the down reach of the Kwangju Stream in Korea in one and half months from May to June 2001. Cattails(Typha angustiflora) were transplanted in the system. They were dug out of natural wetlands and stems were cut at about 40 cm height from their bottom ends. Water of the Kwangju Stream were funneled into it via a pipe by gravity flow and its effluent were discharged back into it. The stems of cattails grew from 45.2 cm in July 2001 up to 186 cm in September 2001 and the number of cattail stems per square meter increased from 22 in July 2001 to 53 in September 2001. The early establishment of cattails was good. Volume and water quality of inflow and outflow were analyzed from July 2001 through December 2001. Inflow averaged $40\;m^3/day$ and hydraulic retention time was about 1.5 days. The concentration of total phosphorous in influent and effluent was 0.85 mg/L, 0.41 mg/L, respectively. The average removal rate of total phosphorous in the system was about 52%. The retention efficiency was slightly lower, compared with that in surface-flow wetlands operating in North America, whose retention efficiency was reported to be about 57%. The lower abatement rate could result from the initial stage of the system and inclusion of two cold months into the six-month monitoring period. Root rhizosphere in wetland soils and litter-soil layers on bottoms were not properly developed. Increase of standing density of cattails within a few years will establish both root zones and substrates beneficial to the removal of phosphorous, which may lead to increase of the phosphorous retention rate. The system was submerged one time by heavy storm during the monitoring period. The inundation, however, scarcely disturb its environment.

본 연구는 사방댐의 준설작업이 퇴사선내 계류의 지형변화에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위해서 준설을 시행한 사방댐과 준설을 시행하지 않은 사방댐을 대상으로 지상 LiDAR 측량을 실시하고 경사도 및 체적의 지형변화를 평가하였다. 지상 LiDAR 장비는 사용자의 숙련도에 영향을 받지 않고 쉽게 지형변화를 관측할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 본 연구결과, 경사도 변화는 토양침식 유발의 위험이 높은 경사도($20^{\circ}{\sim}40^{\circ}$)가 차지하는 비율은 준설을 시행한 사방댐 지역보다 준설을 시행하지 않은 사방댐에서 수치적으로는 더 높게 나타났지만, 우기후 위험구역은 준설을 시행하지 않은 사방댐에서 더 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 체적변화는 준설을 시행한 사방댐에서 침식과 퇴적이 규칙적인 양상으로 나타났지만, 준설을 시행하지 않은 사방댐에서는 침식과 퇴적이 불규칙적으로 나타났다. 그리고 정량적 분석결과 준설을 시행하지 않은 사방댐에 비해 준설을 시행한 사방댐에서 우기후 $m^2$당 1.7배 더 많은 토사가 유입되었다. 조사대상지의 강우량 차이는 토사유출량에 미치는 영향이 없는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 준설을 시행한 사방댐에서는 준설을 시행하지 않은 사방댐에서보다 우기를 지나면서 토양침식의 위험이 높은 경사도 분포가 증가하고, 준설작업을 시행한 지역의 상류계류에서 토사가 많이 유입된 것으로 나타났다.
