초록

본 연구에서는 노천 채광장의 적재-운반 작업을 시뮬레이션 할 수 있는 새로운 소프트웨어를 개발하였다. 시뮬레이터 개발을 위해 GPSS/H 시뮬레이션 언어를 사용하였고, Visual Basic.NET을 이용한 윈도우즈 프로그래밍을 수행하여 사용자가 그래픽 인터페이스를 통해 시뮬레이터에 입력될 파일을 생성하고, 시뮬레이션을 실행하며, 시뮬레이션 결과를 효과적으로 확인할 수 있도록 하였다. 개발된 소프트웨어를 사용하여 사례연구를 수행한 결과 적재장비의 공간 활용 유형에 따라 채광장에 투입되어야할 최적의 트럭 수를 결정할 수 있었다. 채광장에 투입되는 트럭의 수가 최적화되면 트럭들의 초기 배차시간 간격이 시스템의 효율에 미치는 영향은 크지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 제안한 GPSS/H 시뮬레이션 언어와 윈도우즈 프로그래밍 기법의 연계 기술은 추후 광업 분야의 다양한 시뮬레이션 소프트웨어 개발을 위해 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

Abstract

This paper presents new software for simulating truck-shovel operation in open pit mines. The GPSS/H simulation language was used to develop a simulator, and Windows programing using Visual Basic.NET was carried out to create a graphical user interface that allows to generate input data files for the simulator, to run the simulator and to show simulation results. A case study showed that the software can determine the optimal number of trucks assigned to a truck-shovel operation system by considering different loading types (i.e., single-sided loading and double-sided loading). A sensitivity analysis revealed that effects of trucks’ initial dispatch intervals are not significant to the truck-shovel operation system rather than the number of trucks. It is expected that the method for interfacing GPSS/H simulation language and Windows programing can be widely used in the mining industry to develop new software for mining simulations.
