Abstract

The stringent air environment conservation act forced to build an indoor dome for coal storage. However, it causes some problems due to accumulation of fly ash and harmful substances inside. To solve this problem, this study analyzed the pattern of internal airflow and the amount of ventilation for an indoor coal yard. Overall, the airflow inside the indoor coal yard tended to move to the southwest facing the mountain. In addition, sea-breeze was blowing from the northern louver window facing the sea, where airflow was flowing in. The total flow rate flowing into the indoor coal yard was 918,691 m3/h, and the number of natural ventilation per hour was 0.6 times. Therefore, it is proposed to install a forced ventilation device at the location where internal air flow is concentrated.

대기환경보전법이 강화되면서 야외저탄장을 옥내화 함으로써 외부로 날리는 비산먼지는 감소했지만, 저탄장에서 발생하는 석탄 비산먼지와 유해물질들을 단순히 격리함으로서 이러한 물질들이 내부에 축적되어 또 다른 문제를 야기할 수 있다. 본 연구는 이를 해결하기 위해 운영 중인 옥내 저탄장을 선정하여 내부 기류 흐름 양상과 환기량을 분석하였다. 옥내저탄장 내부 기류는 전반적으로 지형적으로 산 쪽에 접한 남서쪽으로 이동하는 경향을 보였다. 그리고 바다와 접한 북쪽 루버에서는 해풍에 의한 기류가 유입되고 있었다. 옥내저탄장 내부로 유입되는 총 유량은 918,691m3/h, 시간당 자연환기 횟수는 0.6회로 나타났다. 연구 결과를 바탕으로 내부 기류가 집중되는 위치에 강제 환기장치를 설치하는 것을 제안한다.
