Abstract

In the estuary where the structure such as river-mouth weir has been installed, the flow is developed very complicatedly due to river water from upstream, tide of the sea and floodgate operation. Especially, if basin outlets more than one exists in one estuary, the boundary conditions will be significantly more complex form. Saemangeum(SMG) project area in Korea is the most typical example. There are Mankyung river and Dongjin river in upstream. The water of them inflows into SMG project area. In the downstream, river flow was drained from inland to sea over the SMG sea dike through the sluice. The connecting channel was located between Mankyung and Dongjin basins. It functions not only as transportation by ship in ordinary period but also as flood sharing by sending flood flow to each other in flood period. Therefore, in order to secure the safety against flood, it is very important to understand the flood sharing capacity for connecting channel. In this study, the flood control effect was analyzed using numerical simulation. Delft3D was used to numerical simulation and simulated period was set up with neap tide, in which the maximum flood stage occurred due to poor drainage. Actually, three connecting channels were designed in land use plan of the SMG Master Plan, but they were simplified to a single channel for conciseness of analysis in this study. According to the results of numerical analysis, the water level difference between two basins was increased and the maximum flood stage at dike sluice was also upraised depending on decrease of conveyance. And the velocity induced by same water level difference was decreased when the conveyance became smaller. In certain conveyance above, there was almost no flood control effect. Therefore, if the results of this study are considered for design of connecting channel, it will be expected to draw the optimal conveyance for minimizing dredging construction cost while maximizing the flood control effect.

하구둑과 같은 구조물이 설치된 하구역에서는 상류로부터 내려온 하천수와 외해의 조석, 수문의 운영에 따라 복잡한 유출특성을 가지게 되며, 하나의 하구역에 2개 이상의 유역출구가 존재하는 경우 더욱 복잡한 형태의 홍수유출특성을 나타낸다. 이러한 사례로 현재 개발계획이 수립중인 새만금 지역을 들 수 있다. 새만금 지역의 경우 만경강과 동진강 유역에서 하천수가 유입되고 방조제에서는 배수갑문을 통해 하천수를 방류하고 해수유입을 차단한다. 두 하천이 만나는 새만금호 내에는 분리하는 용지가 들어서게 되며, 두 수계의 유출량을 연결수로를 통해 교환할 수 있도록 계획되고 있다. 이러한 연결수로는 평소에는 주운의 역할을 하지만 홍수시에는 두 수계간의 홍수를 소통시켜 홍수를 분담하는 기능을 하게 된다. 따라서 하구역 내의 치수적 안전성 확보를 위해서는 연결수로에 대한 홍수분담능력을 파악하는 것이 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 연결수로의 통수능에 따른 홍수위 저감효과를 수치해석을 통해 분석하였다. 해석에는 Delft3D를 활용하였으며 해석기간은 배수갑문의 방류가 어려워 최대홍수위가 발생되는 소조기로 설정하였다. 새만금종합개발계획상의 토지이용계획에서는 3개의 연결수로가 계획되어 있으나 연결수로에 의한 홍수위저감효과를 검토하기 위해 해석을 단순화하여 가장 폭이 넓은 수로 1개만 운영되도록 설정하였다. 연결수로의 폭은 동일하게 하고 하상고를 EL.-15m~EL.-3m까지 2m 단위로 변화시켜 다양한 통수능 조건에서의 홍수저감효과를 검토하였다. 수치해석 결과 연결수로의 통수능이 감소하면 두 수계간의 수위차가 증가하면서 배수갑문지점에서의 최대수위도 증가하며, 동일한 수위차라 하더라도 통수단면적에 따라 유속의 영향으로 홍수위 저감효과도 변화한다는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, 통수단면적이 증가하더라도 홍수위 저감효과가 발생하지 않게 되는 통수단면적도 분석하여 제시하였다. 본 연구결과는 향후 연결수로 설계시 기초자료로 활용될 수 있으며, 준설로 인한 공사비를 최소화하면서 홍수위 저감효과는 극대화할 수 있는 최적 연결수로를 설계할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
