  • 도시유역에서의 일반적인 우수관거 설계 및 기존의 연구들은 수리학적 조건을 만족시키는 범위 내에서 최소의 비용을 위한 관거 설계에 초점을 맞추어왔다. 그러나 최적의 우수관거 설계는 우수관거의 근본적 목적인 내수배제를 최대화 하고자 하는 것이며, 이것은 관망 구성에 따른 시스템 내 유입 수문곡선들 간의 중첩효과를 제어함으로써 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 관내 흐름의 변화를 관망의구성에 따라서 제어될 수 있는 목적함수로서 다루고 있는 이정호(2010)의 우수관망 최적설계 모형에 대하여 각기 다른 유역 특성을 나타내는 실제 도시유역에서의 적용성을 검토하였다. 본 연구에서 이용한 최적 우수관망 노선 결정 모형은 이정호(2010)가 개발한 모형으로 도시유역에서의 우수관망의 노선 결정을 유출구 첨두유출량 최소화를 목적으로 최적화기법을 이용한 모형이다. 이정호(2010)는 개발된 모형을 통하여 관망 노선을 결정한 결과 설계빈도를 초과하는 강우에 대해서 내수침수 발생이 저감되는 효과를 가져올 수 있음을 분석하였다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 이정호(2010)의 모형에 대한 적용성을 검증하기 위하여 각기 다른 유역 특성을 갖는 실제 도시유역들에 대하여 해당 모형을 적용하였다. 이때 유역의 특성은 지표유출 및 첨두유출량에 지배적인 영향을 미치는 유역의 지표 경사에 대하여 고려되었다. 적용된 도시유역은 총 3개 배수분구로서 평균 지표 경사는 0.008, 0.006, 0.002로 각기 높은 경사, 보통 경사 및 완만한 경사 지대를 염두에 둔 유역 선정에 해당한다. 이에 따라 각 유역에 대하여 우수관망 노선을 최적화한 결과 설계빈도의 강우지속기간 30분 강우에 대하여 현재의 관망 대비 최적화된 관망에서의 첨두유출량 저감 비율은 지표경사 0.008인 유역에서는 약 7%, 지표경사 0.006인 유역에서는 약 17%, 지표경사 약 0.002인 유역에서는 약 8%로 나타났다. 따라서 본 연구결과 유역의 경사 특성에 따른 최적 우수관망을 통한 첨두유출량의 저감 비율간에는 상관관계를 정의할 수 없으며, 단지 우수관망에서의 노선 변경이 가능한 맨홀 지점이 어떤 중요한 지점에 얼마나 위치하느냐에 따라 달라지게 되는 것으로 분석되었다.

  • This study presents direct shear tests, model tests, and numerical simulations to assess the effect of reduction of soil strength because of saturation during formation of ground cave-in caused by damaged sewer pipe lines. The direct shear test results show that the saturation affects the cohesion of soil significantly although it does not influence the friction angle of soil. To experimentally reproduce ground cave-in, the model tests were performed. As ground cave-ins were accompanied with extreme deformation, conventional finite element method has difficulty in simulating them. The present study relies on generalized interpolation material point method, which is one of meshless methods. Although there are differences between the model test and numerical simulation caused by boundary conditions, incomplete saturation, and exclusion of groundwater flow, similar ground deformation characteristics are observed both in the model test and numerical simulation.

  • Lately rainfall characteristics that it rains a lot in a short space of time often occurs. Because of this meteorological phenomena, the flow rate and concentration of initial rainfall for runoff and combined sewer overflows are changed. In the case of this inlet fluctuation, the flotation method at high surface loading rate is suitable for water quality management. the flotation method is able to meet the removal rate requirements of water public zone in 5 to 10 min which is irelatively short period. For assessment and diagonision of flotation method, A/S ratio is applied until now. But unfortunately, this has some limits for evaluation standard for certification and assessment of technical diagnosis and operation. This is why there is different efficiency in the bubble distribution at the same A/S ratio. The velocity and time of floating is changed by the different bubble distributions. The floating time affects the plant volume because the time factor make size dicision. Therefore the charateristics of bubble distribution and floating time at the same A/S ratio is necessary to apply to evaluation standard for certification and assessment of technical diagnosis and operation. For generalization of the method in certification and assessment, the characteristics of bubble distribution was studied. Until recently, using the optical device and shooting live video, there are some analysis technology of the floating factors. But this kind of technology is influenced by the equipment. with this level of confidence about the results, it is difficult to apply to generalize. According this reasons, this study should be applied on experiment generalization of method about measurement of relation between bubble distribution and floating time.

  • Energy loss at manholes, often exceeding friction loss of pipes under surcharged flow, is considered as one of the major causes of inundation in urban area. Therefore, it is important to analyze the head losses at manholes, especially in case of surcharged flow. The stream characteristics were analyzed and head loss coefficients were estimated by using the computational fluid dynamics(CFD) model, FLUENT 6.3, at surcharged square manhole in this study. The CFD model was carefully assessed by comparing simulated results with the experimental ones. The study results indicate that there was good agreement between simulation model and experiment. The CFD model was proved to be capable of estimating the head loss coefficients at surcharged manholes. The head loss coefficients with variation of the ratio of manhole width(B) to inflow pipe diameter(d) and variation of the drop height at surcharged square manhole with a straight-path through were calculated using FLUENT 6.3. As the ratio of B/d increases, head loss coefficient increases. The depth and head loss coefficient at manhole were gradually increased when the drop height was more than 5cm. Therefore, the CFD model(Fluent 6.3) might be used as a tool to simulate the water depth, energy losses, and velocity distribution at surcharged square manhole.

  • This study investigates the characteristics of the GAC adsorption behavior during the operation of a multi-stage cross-flow filtration and GAC adsorption process for the purpose of devising an advanced treatment of combined sewer overflows (CSOs) and evaluates the regeneration efficiency of spent GAC that has reached the design breakpoint. During the filtration process, suspended substances are easily removed, but dissolved organic substances are not removed, necessitating a process capable of removing dissolved organic substances for the advanced treatment of CSOs. In general, GAC adsorption has been applied under low-concentration organic conditions, such as for water purification and tertiary treatments of sewage, and has rarely been applied under conditions with high organic concentrations, such as with sewage or CSOs. Accordingly, this study will provide a new and interesting experience. Also in this study, the continuous operation and breakthrough characteristics of GAC according to the strength of the inflow organic matter were investigated, electrochemical regeneration was applied to the used GAC, and the regeneration efficiency was evaluated through desorption and re-adsorption tests. The results showed that the breakthrough period was 21 days under high concentration conditions, 28 days at medium concentrations, and 32 days under low concentration conditions. The desorption of adsorbed organic matter through electrolysis occurred in the range of 188 to 609 mgCOD/L depending on the electrolysis conditions, and the effect of the electrolyte type led to the finding that NaOH was slightly higher than H2O2.

  • Rapidly emerging P2P(Peer to Peer) applications generate very bursty traffic, which gives a lot of burden to network, and the amount of such traffic is increasing rapidly. Thus it is becoming more important to understand the characteristics of such traffic and reflect it when we design and analyze the network. To do that we measured the traffic in a campus network and present flow statistics and traffic models of the measured traffic, and compare them with those of the web traffic. The results indicate that P2P traffic is much burstier than web traffic and as a result it negatively affects network performance. We modeled P2P traffic using self-similar traffic model to predict packet delay and loss occurred in network which are very important to evaluate network performance. We also predict queue length distribution and loss probability in SSQ(Single Sewer Queue). To assess accuracy of traffic model, we compare the SSQ statistics of traffic models with that of the traffic trace. The results show that self-similar traffic models we use can predict P2P traffic behavior in network precisely. It is expected that the traffic models we derived can be used when we design network capacity and predict network performance and QoS of the P2P applications.
