  • In inner harbour of Inchon Port, there are two lock gates (50KT, 10KT) which have two gates per lock gate in inner/outer sides except a gate in inner harbour side 7f 10KT. Due to the lack of the fore-mentioned gate, the use of 10KT lock gate Is suspended in every 3 years for regular maintenance. Now an additional gate is under construction in order to improve the efficiency of the 10KT lock gate. This paper will be aimed to evaluate the operational utilization levels of lock gates in present and future. The present operational utilization levels of lock gates are 0.2119 in 10KT lock gate, 0.2051 in 50KT lock gate which were considered the 46.5 closed days every 3 years for 10KT regular maintenance. The levels are estimated to 0.2246(10KT), 0.2539(50KT) in 2006 and 0.2241(10KT), 0.2560(50KT) in 2011. The levels of 50KT lock gate are evaluated to be more rapidly increased up to 24.5% in 2011.

  • In inner harbour of Incheon port, there are two lock gates (50KT, 10KT) which have two gates per lock gate in inner/outer sides except a gate in inner harbour side of 10KT. Due to the lack of the fore-mentioned gate, the use of 10KT lock gate is suspended in energy 3 years for regular maintenance. Now an additional gate is under construction in order to improve the efficiency of the 10KT lock gate. This paper will be aimed to evaluate the operational utilization levels of lock gates in present and future. The operational utilization levels of lock gates in 1998 are evaluated 0.2119 in 10KT lock gate, 0.2061 in 50KT lock gate which were considered the 46.5 closed days every 3 years for 10KT regular maintenance. The levels are estimated to 0.2246(10KT), 0.2539(50KT0 in 2006 and 0.2241(10KT), 0.2560(50KT) in 2011. The levels of 50KT lock gate in 2011 are evaluated to be more rapidly increased up to 24.5% from the levels in 1998.

  • In order to determine the effects of lock gate expansion at the Lake Youngsan and Yeongam as well as increase in the width of the connecting channel of the two lakes on flood control downstream of the Youngsan River, an unsteady hydraulic flood routing was conducted by combining the Lake Youngsan and Yeongam as a single connected system. The coupled operation of the two lakes was found to have little effect when the widths of the lock gates and the connecting channel are set at the current level. It was also found that increasing the width of the connecting channel as well as the lock gate of the Lake Yeongam is an effective means of reducing the stage of the Lake Youngsan, whereas an increase in the width of the Lake Youngsan's lock gate had a relatively smaller effect. The extended width of the connecting channel leads to a rise in the stage of the Lake Yeongam. In order to reduce the elevated stage, The Lake Yeongam's lock gate must be expanded along with the Lake Yeongsan's lock gate. The analysis found that the stage of the Lake Yeongsan can be effectively controlled through adjustment of opening and shutting criteria of the connecting channel's lock gate, when diversion discharge between the lakes is increased as a result of expanding the width of the connecting channel.

  • This study showed that numerical simulation can be effectively used to analyze discharge capacity according to the form and arrangement of the lock gate of a tidal power plant. For the numerical simulation, FLOW-3D with Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equation as a governing equation was used. This study found that improvement of apron length and approach angle of guide wall of the lock gate causes differences in discharge capacity of $10\%$ or more. In addition, there was a difference of discharge capacity caused by the connecting structures of the drainage gate and hydraulic turbine structure and the side slope at the end of apron. This study also showed that hydraulic investigation to enhance a discharge capacity is needed when the lock gate is designed and that numerical model experiments can be a useful analysis tool to design the drainage structure, as well as the hydraulic model experiment.

  • To examine how the width of connecting channels, the width of the Kumho lock gate, and the opening/shutting criteria of the Yeongam connecting channel lock gate affect the flood stage of Lake Yeongsan, Lake Yeongam, and Lake Kumho, located in the lower reaches of the Yeongsan River, unsteady flood routing was performed by connecting the three lakes into a single interlinked system. The coupled operation of the three lakes was found to have little effect when the widths of the lock gates and the Yeongam and Kumho connecting channels are set at the current level. The most effective way to lower the water level in Lake Yeongsan was to widen the Yeongam connecting channel, but this caused the water level in Lake Yeongam to rise. To lower the increased water level in Lake Yeongam by utilizing the water storage capacity of Lake Kumho, it was necessary to widen both the Kumho lock gate and the Kumho connecting channel. It was found that the optimum opening/shutting criterion for the Yeongam connecting channel lock gate is approximately EL.(+)0.8 m under the simulated conditions used in this study and the criterion allows of maximal lowering of the water levels in Lake Yeongam and Lake Kumho while maintaining a near-constant water level in Lake Yeongsan.

  • This study is focused on the comparison of a 3 dimensional numerical and hydraulic model experiment for the flow phenomenon when a lock gate is opened. The lock gate is designed to discharge the flood flow rate at $218m^3/s$ of Solicheon at the Kun Jang national industry complex. The three dimensional ${\kappa}-{\epsilon}$ turbulent model of ANSYS CFX-10 of the computational fluid dynamics(CFD) program was used. The characteristics of CFX-10 are able to be simulated effectively for turbulent flow, especially the flow separation of the boundary layer of the two phase interface of air and water. The velocity and the flow pattern of the numerical model was showed to be similar to the results of the hydraulic model experiment.

  • Measurements of interface states in a MOS capacitor by DLTS system using wideband monophase lock-in amplifier are discussed. A new signal analysis method that takes into account the bias pulse width and the gate off width is presented to remove the errors in the measured parameters of interface states resulting from the traditional method which neglects the effect of those widths. Theoretical calculations are made for the parameters related to the rate window, signal to noise ratio, and the energy resolution. On the grounds of this discussion, interface states of the MOS capacitor on p-type substrate of (110) orentation are measured with the optimal gate-off width with respect to the S/N ratio and the energy resolution. The results are interface state density of the order of 10**10 (cm-\ulcornereV**-1) to 10**11 (cm-\ulcornereV**-1) in the energy range of Ev+0.15(dV) to Ev+0.5(eV), and constant capture cross section of the order of 10**-16 (cm\ulcorner.

  • A total of 23 individuals of glass eel (Anguilla japonica) were investigated from two estuarine barrages of the Nakdong River in 2016. It was observed that most individuals migrated through the eastern barrage, compared to the western. Individual numbers differed significantly along the corridor modification of the barrages; for example, the number of individuals was two to three times higher after the modification. These results indicate that modification of fish way and lock gate for has facilitated migration of glass eel, and our study potentially offers the operation strategy of estuarine barrage in order to induce more active migration of glass eel.

  • Due to the construction of Incheon Grand Bridge, there is driven a necessity for rearranging the function of Inner Port with the development of Outer South Port. In this paper, I'd like to simulate the port operation levels of Lock Gate in Inner Port with estimating the traffic volumes of 2011 and 2015, which will reveal the Demurrage Cost and the Accumulation Cost of Freight in Inner Port. Finally I will evaluate the economic movement effects of the container ship's calling from Inner port to South Port/Outer South Port from 2011 to 2015. The results are as followings ; (1) The average utilization of Lock Gates are reduced by $7\sim8$ percentage point. (2) The mean queueing value are saved by 25 percentage point. (3) The Demurrage Cost and the Accumulation Cost of Freight except Lock Gate charges and the Benefit of Routeing Reduction are saved about 800 million Won annually.
