Water quality is monitored at 1,837 points which are streams and sources for water supply in Karea. The monitoring carry out the measurement of 16 parameters of pH, BOD, SS, DO and so on with once a month, and of other parameters such like heavy metal with once a quarter. But most of the monitoring is carried out uncontinuously, so it is very difficult to understand exactly the changes of water quality compared with continuous monitoring. Therefore, real time monitoring system was equipped with basic parameters such as pH, temperature, DO, turbidity and electric conductivity at 25 major sources of water supply after installation of Noryangjin and Dukdo in 1974. But the systems have some problems which cannot be considered the sampling sites to represent for water quality of stream of lake, and can be caused a change of water quality by long distance from analyzer to intake pipe. Therefore, it has carefully to evaluate selection of sample sites for real time monitoring system. Also, problems on the area has been to identify which parameters are best suited to monitoring stream of lake water and the differences, of analyzing results compared with manual analyzing. This paper presents some approaches to handle such problems, namely selection of sampling site and measurable parameters, to connect with bio-monitoring system solving a Limitation of measurable parameters, The bio-monitoring system of an early alarm that is desirable to perceive a toxic material inflow into stream can be applied to continuos water quality monitoring system effectively. Also, this paper presents to build a on line system transmitting immediately from a mobile analyzer house or container to main monitoring center the results of analyzer by a telemeter.

In existing systems, the best method inhibiting corrosion control in water distribution systems is to reduce water corrosiveness. Water corrosion can be decreased by controlling water quality through simple water treatment in treatment plants. On this research, we study the characteristics of tab water qualities in domestic areas, assessment of corrosive water quality and the method of water quality monitoring. This review presents the method of water quality monitoring which is the most applicable. Monitoring for corrosion control in waterworks system is the most proper method; It can prevent serious accidents economically and reduce civil appeals. Surely we should assess corrosive water quality in tab water, and introduce water treatment methods to control corrosive water quality before monitoring for corrosion. According to a lot of researches, it has been proved that simple water treatments can reduce the pipe corrosion. In this review we should indicate that we do not control of the corrosive water quality due to domestic conditions, we should monitor the water quality basically. Therefore, we recognize how the existing water quality can cause problems on pipeline corrosion, how to deal with it. Then it will be possible to apply water quality monitoring for corrosion control in water distribution system. Monitoring for corrosion control can be expressed by LI index, it is already known in literatures. This review presents more simple method than existing methods than existing ones we expect to apply these methods to SCADA in the future.

The most numerical investigations of the thermal-hydraulic phenomena following the loss of the residual heat removal capability during the mid-loop operation of the pressurized water reactor were performed according to simplifications and are not sufficiently accurate. To perform more accurate and more reliable predictions of thermal-hydraulic accidents in a nuclear power plant using computational fluid dynamics codes, a more detailed methodology is needed. Modelling results identified that thermal stratification and natural convection are observed. Temperatures of lower monitoring points remain low, while temperatures of upper monitoring points increase over time. The water in the heated region, in the upper unheated region and the pipe region was well mixed due to natural convection, meanwhile, there is no natural convection in the lower unheated region. Water temperature in the pipe region increased after a certain time delay due to circulation of flow induced by natural convection in the heated and upper unheated regions. The modelling results correspond to the experimental data. The developed computational fluid dynamics methodology could be applied for modelling of two-component single/two-phase natural convection and thermal stratification phenomena during the mid-loop operation of the pressurized water reactor or other nuclear and non-nuclear installations at similar conditions.

Most small weir installed in Korea is concrete solidated weir. Fixed weir causes stagnant flow, which leads to deposit sediment just upstream of weir. As time goes on, it would induce reduction of water storage capacity and invoke the serious water quality issues. Therefore, there has been a growing interest in movable weir. Especially, the flexible rubber weir is easy to install and possible to operate in extreme environments. However, even though this type can be flatable, it is also not free from sediment deposition problem. Thus, to enhance the ability of releasing deposition the bypass pipe was constructed underneath it. In this study the performance of its ability was examined with hydraulic model test. This bypass pipe was designed with 3 different dimensions to connect between each bottom of upstream and downstream of a weir, such as Type A, B, and C. The efficiency of drainage of deposition upstream was studied under two water of upstream and sediment heights. In addition, the ability of sediment emission through the bypass pipe after the pipe was blocked by debris like soil, vegetation et al. was examined by video monitoring. From this study, it was suggested a dimensionless equation which show the relationship of variable parameters and amount of emission sediment through bypass pipe. And it was found that the most significant factors on efficiency of releasing were elbow angle and discharge, and the ability of emission when the pipe was blocked was most highly influenced in tilting length.

Underground pipe is an instrument to transport rapidly and safely a lot of fluid like gas, oil, water supply and drain system. It acts like blood vessels of human body in a modern industry. As in this country, the pipe facilities have been constructing since 1970's. The pipes constructed for a long time ago are already starting to reveal the problem like corrosion and most of them are built underground. So for companies, the managing of the underground pipes is very hard because it needs high technology and a lot of money. So we made a new robot system to repair and maintain the pipes at a low price. This new robot is devised using pressing wall type to work inside 700${\sim}$900(mm) size pipe. And it has good carrying and working power.

수중 경도물질에 의해 유발된 스케일은 수질 저해는 물론 배관의 기능에 막대한 손실을 초래할 수 있어 관리가 필요하다. 특히 온수시스템의 경우, 온도에 의해 스케일화작용이 가속화되므로 관리가 필요한 시설 중 하나이다. 현재까지는 화학약품이나 에너지가 소모되는 화학적, 물리적, 전자기적 방법과는 다른 무전원방식의 Frequency Driver (FD)를 이용하여 스케일 생성 방지 효과를 확인하고자 하였다. 500 mg/L의 경수에 33일간 3종류의 관 시편을 침지시켜 관 재질별 스케일 형성도를 비교하기 위해 XRD와 SEM을 이용하여 표면을 분석하였다. 주철관에서는 경도에서 유발된 스케일인 calcite ($CaCO_3$)가 형성되었고, 구리나 스테인리스관에 비해 부식율이 높았다. 온수순환장치를 제작하여 경도 300 mg/L로 $50^{\circ}C$의 조건에서 FD 설치 유무에 따른 주철관의 스케일 형성도와 수질 변화를 비교하였다. XRD 결과에서 FD를 설치하였을 경우 calcite의 생성은 비교적 적은 반면, 좋은 부식생성물인 magnetite ($Fe_3O_4$)의 생성을 확인할 수 있었으며, SEM 사진에서도 FD의 스케일 저감 효과를 확인할 수 있었다. 관 내부의 스케일 양의 경우, FD를 설치하지 않은 경우에 비해 FD를 설치하였을 경우 관 연결부분에서는 16%, 관 전체길이에서는 14%, 열교환기에서는 42%의 적은 스케일이 형성되어 FD의 스케일 저감효과를 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 FD 설치 유무에 따른 수질분석 결과를 토대로 FD가 수질의 화학적 변화 없이 경도물질의 결정화를 방지하는 것으로 나타나 환경적으로도 안전함을 확인하였다.

In this study, I suggest an effective operation of waterwork facilities in large cities and a scientific method for utilizing water in water distribution systems. To achieve this goal, my simulation were carried out on data from Kwangju City using Pipenet '98, a pipe-network program. From this simulation, I examine the possibilities of application the system in large cities, comparing data measured at 33 hydraulic pressure monitoring places from waterwork enterprises. The result is coincident with that of waterwork enterprises, with about a 12.5% average error rate and $0.32kg/cm^2$ average deviation. The method and program I use here can be helpful in cities where there is a need to extend the waterwork facilities, or where there is a need to suspend the water supply, and/or there is an accident. The simulation shows how to expand waterwork facilities effectively, how to prevent accidents, and how to estimate the hydraulic pressure even in the areas without monitoring places.

DuraMote is a remote sensing system developed for the "NIST TIP project: next generation SCADA for prevention and mitigation of water system infrastructure disaster". It is designed for supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) of ruptures in water pipes. Micro-electro mechanical (MEMS) accelerometers, which record the vibration of the pipe wall, are used detect the ruptures. However, the performance of Duramote cannot be verified directly on a water distribution system because it lacks an acceptable recordable level of ambient vibration. Instead, a long-span cable-stayed bridge is an ideal test-bed to validate the accuracy, the reliability, and the robustness of DuraMote because the bridge has an acceptable level of ambient vibration. The acceleration data recorded on the bridge were used to identify the modal properties of the structure and to verify the performance of DuraMote. During the test period, the bridge was subjected to heavy rain, wind, and a typhoon but the system demonstrates its robustness and durability.
