파력발전은 파랑에너지를 이용하여 유용한 에너지를 얻어내는 것인데, 본 논문에서는 그 가운데 진동수주 (Oscillating Water Column)형을 연구 대상으로 취하였다. 이는 외해에서의 파랑에너지를 공기실에 유입 집중시켜 공기실 내 수면의 승강운동을 증폭시키고 이로 인해 발생한 공기실 내의 공기 흐름을 터빈의 구동력으로 사용하는 것을 말한다. 적지 선정과정에서 채택된 곳의 설계파고를 바탕으로 원하는 정격출력인 500kW를 얻어낼 수 있도록 유량과 임펄스 터빈의 최적 직경을 산출하고자 하였는데 개념설계된 파력발전장치의 덕트가 쌍동형 형태를 취하고 있으므로 한 터빈당 250kW급을 목표 발전용량으로 하였다. 지난 연구를 통해서 기 작성된 터빈 성능도표를 활용하여, 본 연구에서는 1차적으로 임펄스 터빈의 개략적인 직경 및 유량을 구하고, 터빈의 자기 기동 특성을 고려하여 최종적인 형상을 구체적으로 도출하였다.

An OWC-type Wave Energy Conversion passes through 3 steps energy conversion process. This paper deal with the impulse turbine with staggered blade to improved performance by numerical analysis using commercial CFD code, FLUENT Maximum value of axial airflow velocity during exhalation is higher than that during inhalation This paper deal with special-type of Impulse Turbine so-called "Staggered Blade" for more efficiency to making air flow direct to on pressure side. Also, this paper has proposed special-type turbine with self-pitched blade more efficient.

A study on experimental method of the model test for the impulse turbine is carried out. the wave simulator is used to reproduce the real wave condition. It controls two parameter correspond to wave height and wave frequency. The optimum design which is reported by T. Setoguchi is manufactured and tested for the validation of our test facilities. The comparison of model test show that our facilities produce little bit higher efficiency at maximum efficiency point. To increase the efficiency of turbine, the new rotor with negative tip clearance is designed and being tested.

진동 수주형 파력발전 시스템(oscillating water column wave energy converter)의 효율을 증대할 수 있는 터빈의 최대 효율 추종 제어기를 제안한다. 진동 수주형 파력발전 시스템은 캡처 챔버(capture chamber)와 터빈, 발전기로 구성되어 있으며 발전기 말단에 연결된 저항의 값을 제어 입력으로 삼는다. 본 논문에서는 파력발전 시스템의 캡처 챔버와 터빈의 동역학 모델에 대해 소개하고, 터빈의 최대 효율 추종 제어기의 안정성을 증명하고 이를 JONSWAP 모델의 비규칙 파랑 조건하에서 시뮬레이션 하여 제어기 성능을 입증한다.

This paper deals with the performance analysis and design of impulse turbine for OWC type wave energy plant. Numerical analysis was performed using a commercially-available software FLUENT. This parametric study includes the variation of several important parameters such as the number and shape of blades, hub ratio and tip clearance. Since parametric study at various flow coefficients requires considerable amount of computing tim, two-dimensional analysis was employed to find out optimum principal particulars in rather simple manner. Full three-dimensional calculation was also performed for several test cases to confirm the validity of two-dimensional approach. Up to the present stage, tentative result is well demonstrating the usefulness of 2-D analysis.
