Abstract

This paper designs a wind turbine test site based on international regulations for the certification of wind turbine prototypes. The maximum height of the meteorological mast installed at the test site is 140m, and power facilities capable of testing up to three wind turbines of 5MW or more are installed. The weather resources measured at the mast can be recorded and analyzed using a monitoring system. Wind turbine manufacturers can use this test site during the certification period, and the installed wind turbines can be used for continuous power generation projects. Therefore, this test site can provide fundamental data for measuring the long-term performance and durability of wind turbines, which can be used to improve models or develop new wind turbines.

본 논문은 풍력터빈의 시제품 인증을 위한 국제 규정에 근거하여 풍력터빈 시험장을 설계하였다. 시험장에 설치되는 기상탑의 최대 높이는 140m이며, 5MW 이상 풍력터빈을 최대 3대까지 시험할 수 있는 전력설비가 구성되어 있다. 설치된 기상탑에서 측정한 기상자원은 감시시스템을 이용하여 기록 및 분석이 가능함을 확인하였다. 풍력터빈 제조업체는 이 시험장을 인증기간 동안 사용할 수 있고 설치된 풍력터빈은 지속적인 발전사업도 가능하다. 따라서, 장기적으로 풍력터빈의 성능 및 내구성을 측정하여 모델을 개량하거나 새로운 풍력터빈을 개발하기 위한 기초자료를 얻을 수 있다.
