Abstract

Wave conditions are crucial for offshore wind farm design, particularly in determining structural loads and layout. However, there is limited wave hindcasting research for the Wangdeungdo Island area, a potential offshore wind site. This study used the MIKE21 model for a year-long wave hindcast around Wangdeungdo in 2021. Validation showed high reproducibility for significant wave heights with RMSE values of 0.177 and 0.225 and Pearson correlations of 0.971 and 0.970 at Sangwangdeungdo and Buan buoys. Subsequent analysis of the wave characteristics near Wangdeungdo indicated significant seasonal variations and differences in maximum significant wave heights across locations, which are expected to significantly impact the design loads for offshore wind structures.

해상풍력 단지 개발 시 파랑은 구조물 설계 하중 결정과 단지 배치 등에 있어서 필수적으로 고려되어야 한다. 그러나 해상풍력 개발지역으로 간주되고 있는 왕등도 인근 해역에 대한 파랑 후측 연구는 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 MIKE 21 모델을 이용하여 2021년 1년간 왕등도 중심의 서남해 파랑 후측을 통해 왕등도 인근 파랑 특성을 분석하였다. 파랑 후측 결과 상왕등도 부이와 부안 부이에서 유의파고에 대한 RMSE가 0.177, 0.225 Pearson 상관계수는 0.971, 0.970으로 높은 재현성을 보여주었다. 모델의 검증 후 왕등도 인근 해역에 대한 파랑 특성을 분석한 결과 계절에 따라 파랑이 크게 달라지는 경향을 보였다. 최대 유의파고 발생 시 위치별로 큰 차이를 보였으며 이는 해상풍력 구조물의 설계 하중 결정에 있어 중요한 영향을 미칠 것으로 예상된다.
