Explicitly spatially distributed and reliable data on industrial water demand is very much important for both policy makers and researchers in order to carry a region-specific analysis of water resources management. However, such type of data remains scarce particularly in underdeveloped and developing countries. Current research is limited in using different spatially available socio-economic, climate data and geographical data from different sources in accordance to predict industrial water demand at finer resolution. This study proposes a random forest regression (RFR) model to predict the industrial water demand at 0.50× 0.50 spatial resolution by combining various features extracted from multiple data sources. The dataset used here include National Polar-orbiting Partnership (NPP)/Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) night-time light (NTL), Global Power Plant database, AQUASTAT country-wise industrial water use data, Elevation data, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), Road density, Crop land, Population, Precipitation, Temperature, and Aridity. Compared with traditional regression algorithms, RF shows the advantages of high prediction accuracy, not requiring assumptions of a prior probability distribution, and the capacity to analyses variable importance. The final RF model was fitted using the parameter settings of ntree = 300 and mtry = 2. As a result, determinate coefficients value of 0.547 is achieved. The variable importance of the independent variables e.g. night light data, elevation data, GDP and population data used in the training purpose of RF model plays the major role in predicting the industrial water demand.

In this study, we examined the structural analysis of water demand fluctuation for water distribution control of water supply network. In order to analyze for the length of stationary time series, we calculate autocorrelation coefficient of each case equally divided data size. As a result, it was found that, with the data size of around three months, any case could be used as stationary time series. we analyze cross-correlation coefficient between the daily water consumption's data and primary influence factors. As a result, we have decided to use weather conditions and maximum temperature as natural primary factors and holidays as a social factor. Applying the multiple ARIMA model, we obtains an effective model to describe the daily water demand prediction. From the forecasting result, even though we forecast water distribution quantity of the following year, estimated values well express the flctuations of measurements. Thus, the suitability of the model for practical use can be confirmed. When this model is used for practical water distribution control, water distribution quantity for the following day should be found by inputting maximum temperature and weather conditions obtained from weather forecast, and water purification plants and service reservoirs should be operated based on this information while operation of pumps and valves should be set up. Consequently, we will be able to devise a rational water management system.

In Korea Electric Power Corporation (or KEPCO), several Demand-Side Management (or DSM) program have been carried out to effectively meet electric power demand at least costs by modifying customers electricity use patterns. As one of them, KEPCO applies low-priced night thermal-storage power service for heat appliances to facilitate efficient use of power facilities by shifting relatively high daytime demands to night hours to build loads during the off-peak periods. In the market of heat-storage type water-heater, electric water-heater has been mostly used, but it has low energy efficiency and needs high capacity electric equipments. So in order to replace these electric water heaters, 15 HP air-source heat pump water heater is developed in Korea Electric Research Institute (or KEPRI). This paper shows that measurement system for performance testing of heat pump water heater is established and heating capacity and performance is analyzed and measured for out-door environmental change.

The rapid urbanization in many Asian countries has taken millions of people from the rural countryside to concentrated megacities, which eventually putting pressure on the existing water resources. The over-growing population and increasing living standard of people in the urban region of developed as well as developing countries such as Korea, China, Japan and India have witnessed a drastic change in terms of domestic water demand for the past few decades. In this study, we used the concept of potential surface water availability in the form of surface runoff for future vulnerability assessment. We focused on 42 megacities having population more than 5 million as per the United Nations (UN) census data 2020. The study shows that 30 out of 42 cities having more than 180L/p/d demand for domestic use based on various references. We have predicted the domestic water demand for all the cities on the basis of current per capita demand up to 2035 using UN projected population data. We found that the projected water demand in megacities such as Seoul, Busan, Shanghai, Ghuanzou are increasing because of high population as well as GDP growth rate. On the contrary, megacities of Japan considered in our stud shows less water demand in future due to decreasing trend of population. As per the past records provided by the local municipalities/authorities, we projected different scenarios based on the future supply for various megacities such as Chennai, Delhi, Karachi, Mumbai, Shanghai, Wuhan, etc. We found that the supply to demand ratio of these cities would be below 75% for future period and if such trend continues then the inhabitants will face serious water stress conditions. Outcomes of this study would help the local policy makers to adopt sustainable initiatives on urban water governance to avoid the severe water stress conditions in the vulnerable megacities.

Agricultural water occupies the largest portion of total water use in Korea, and generally researches on the development of agricultural water have been stressed on the demand of agricultural water itself. But it is unavoidable to change a policy from the development of water resources to cope with the increase of water demand to the effective management of existing water resources. Evaluation of the decrepitude of irrigation facilities and their reasonable maintenance are important for the effective supply and use of agricultural water. Therefore it is necessary to develop evaluation technique that diagnoses the current condition of irrigation canals and suggest a countermeasure to improve the found problems. 25 items in 6 classes were selected for the evaluation of irrigation canal systems, and the weighted value between the items was calculated using AHP (Analysis Hierarchy Process) method. The current condition of the irrigation facilities was evaluated from the class evaluation marks, and ranking was decided from the total marks between the projects, and finally the priority of the project for the improvement was given.

In remote islands, due to expense of existing generation systems, installation of photovoltaic cells (PVs) and wind turbines has a chance of reducing generation costs. However, in island power systems, even short-term power fluctuations change the frequency of grids because of their small inertia constant. In order to compensate power fluctuations, the authors proposed the power consumption control of pumps which send water to tanks. The power control doesn’t affect water users’ convenience as long as tanks hold water. Based on experimental characteristics of a pump system, this paper shows methods to determine reference power consumption of the system with compensation for short-term PV fluctuations while satisfying water demand. One method uses a PI controller and the other method calculates reference power consumption from water flow reference. Simulations with a PV and a pump system are carried out to find optimum parameters and to compare the methods. Results show that both PI control method and water flow calculation method are useful for satisfying the water demand constraint. The water demand constraint has a little impact to suppression of the short-term power fluctuation in this condition.

In the forthcoming 21C, the development of cultural lives depends on that the water demand will increase or not. On the opposite site of that circumstance, many factors of the small watersheds will influence directly on how to cover the surface of watersheds with land use, no planning developing watersheds, and the rearrangement of small rivers. Especially as the extraordinary climatic Phenomena, exhaust of $CO_2$ and destruction of 03 layer, water resource and water foresting content of the small watersheds will be decreased by confusing on the malting a plan of water resources. For example, those are Typhoon Rusa in 2002, Typhoon Maemi in 2003 and heavy storms in 2004. This study area has three group and one of them having three small watersheds, total five small watersheds. That is, Sabukmyeon small watersheds in Chuncheon, Three small watersheds in Wonju(Jeoncheon, Jupocheon and Hasunamcheon), and Suipcheon in Yanggu-Gun which are located far away each other three group and different precipitation data. According to the land use such as dry field(or farm), rice field, forest land. building site and others in small watersheds, the amount of runoff will be impacted by monthly precipitation. The comparison between the runoff was getting from Kajiyama Formula and calculated runoff from multi-linear regressed equations by land use Percentage was performed with different precipitation data and different small watersheds. Its correlations which are estimated by coefficient of correlation will be accepted or not, as approached 1.0000 values. As the monthly water resources amount is estimated by multi-linear regressed equations with different precipitation data and different small watersheds having no gauging station, we make a plan in order to demand and supply the water quantity from small river watersheds during return periods.

우리나라는 성공적인 물 관리를 위하여 1980년대 이후 상수도 보급을 중심으로 한 공급정책이 성공적으로 진행되었고, 1990년대 이후 물 가격이 상수도 수요에 미치는 영향 등 수요관리에 대한 정책이 이어지고 있다. 최근 들어 물 가격결정과 효율적인 수자원 관리에 논의가 부각되고 있다. 본 논문은 부산지역을 대상으로 물수요 관리의 핵심 변수로서 물 가격의 결정 요인과 가격 수준 설정에 대한 논의를 수요함수추정을 통하여 분석한다. 주요 변수로는 총 인구, 수도 요금, 소득, 가구 수, 에너지 가격으로 선정되었고, 시계열 자료의 특성을 고려한 초월대수함수 모형을 설정하여 분석하였다. 분석결과에 따르면 물 수요는 인구, 소득 등 실물 경제변수에는 양의 효과를, 물 가격, 에너지 가격 등 가격변수에는 음의 효과를 나타냈다. 향후 지역별 미래 물 소비량에 따른 공급 능력 확보와 지속적인 물 절약을 위하여 수도 요금 조정이 효율적 정책방안으로 판단되며, 디지털 정보의 이용 확대 등 보완적 수자원 관리 정책도 동시에 요구된다. 또한 용도별, 지역별, 시간별로 세분화된 자료를 구축하고, 정교한 계량분석모형을 이용한 연구가 요청된다.

가정용수의 용도별 사용량은 주거형태, 거주자 생활양식, 주택구조 등의 내부적인 요인과 온도, 날씨, 수도요금 등과 같은 다양한 외부요인들의 영향을 받게 된다. 장기적으로는 거주민의 생활양식, 주거형태, 수도관련 시설의 변화 등에 따라 사용량이 점진적으로 변화하게 되며, 단기적으로는 기온이나 가뭄과 같은 기후조건이나 절수정책과 같은 인위적인 영향에 의해 사용량이 크게 변화하기도 한다. 용수수요에 영향을 미치는 인자에 대한 분석과 이해는 사용량의 변화원인과 경향을 설명해주고 여러가지 인자와의 상관관계를 분석함으로서 물사용패턴과 향후 수요를 예측하는데 도움을 준다. 본 연구에서는 가정용수의 용도별 사용량 실측자료를 바탕으로 사용패턴과 사용량에 미치는 영향인자를 분석하기 위하여 요일별, 월별, 계절별 사용량을 비교하고, 또한 가구특성, 기온 등의 외부인자에 의해 영향을 받는 용도에 대해서도 살펴보았다. 가정용수의 사용패턴을 분석한 결과, 토요일에 사용량이 가장 많고, 월간 중에는 7월의 사용량이 가장 높았으며, 월별 사용량의 첨두율은 평균대비 1.12로 나타났다. 기온에 따른 용도별 사용경향에서 총량용수는 $-14^{\circ}C{\sim}0^{\circ}C$까지 물사용량이 급격하게 증가하는 경향을 보였으나, $0^{\circ}C$이상에서는 큰 변화양상을 보이지 않았다. 반면에 세면, 세탁, 욕조용수는 $0^{\circ}C$이상에서도 점진적인 증가경향을 보였으나, 변기용수는 오히려 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 기온에 대한 용도별 사용량의 상관관계 분석결과 세면용수가 상관계수 0.73으로 상관성이 가장 높았으며, 변기용수는 -0.14로 매우 낮은 음의 상관성을 보였다. 각 인자별로 가정용수 사용량 원단위의 차이에 대한 유의성 여부를 검토하기 위하여 주택유형, 실거주인수, 가족구성, 건평, 수입, 맞벌이여부, 절수형변기, 비데기유무 등에 대하여 분산분석을 수행한 결과, 주택유형의 경우 욕조용수의 사용량에 차이가 발견되었고, 실거주인수는 싱크대, 변기, 기타, 총량용수에서 유의한 차이가 발견되었다. 특히 실거주인수는 세면과 욕조를 제외한 모든 용도별 사용량에서 유의한 차이를 보여 거주인수의 증감에 따라 용도별 사용량의 차이가 분명히 발생하며, 이는 향후 가구당 용수사용량을 설계하는 경우 평균 거주인수에 대한 신중한 검토가 필요할 것으로 판단되었다. 이러한 가정용수의 용도별 사용특성 분석결과는 수요예측, 수요관리 정책수립, 수도관련 기자재 및 시설의 규격결정 등에 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
