Abstract

The purpose of current study is to develop the rotor analysis solver and perform a rotor aerodynamic analysis in the wind fence. To this end, the rotor analysis solver based on actuator disk model was employed. To consider the asymmetric effect of the rotor in the wind fence, the flapping motion analysis was conducted with blade element theory for the effective angle of attack calculation. The validation cases which are the rotor with wall and ground were accomplished by developed solver. The decrease of rotor performance by wind fence was confirmed. The wind fence configuration was suggested which guarantees more than 95% rotor performance compared with the no fence case.

본 연구에서는 로터 성능 해석을 위한 로터 성능 해석자를 개발하고 이를 사용하여 방풍 구조물 내부의 로터 성능 해석을 수행하였다. 로터 성능 해석자는 깃요소 이론 기반의 actuator disk model을 사용한 해석자를 사용하였다. 또한, 주변의 구조물로 인한 로터 하중의 비대칭성을 고려하기 위해 깃요소 이론에서 블레이드의 flapping 운동에 대한 해석을 수행하여 유효받음각 계산에 적용하였다. 개발된 해석자를 사용하여 바닥면과 벽면에 의한 로터 성능 변화에 관한 연구와 비교 검증을 수행하였다. 방풍 구조물 형상에 따른 로터 성능 해석을 통해 방풍 구조물에 의한 로터 성능 감소 현상을 확인하였다. 이를 통해 방풍 구조물이 없는 경우 대비 95% 이상의 로터 성능 비를 가지는 방풍 구조물의 유출입덕트 면적을 제안하였다.
