최근 풍력에너지 발전기술이 해상 풍력 및 대형 풍력으로 천이되어 감에 따라 더 향상된 신뢰성 기술을 요구하고 있고, 풍력 블레이드는 풍력발전시스템에서 고장 빈도가 비교적 낮지 않고, 고장 발생 시 심각도가 상대적으로 높아 신뢰성을 고려해야 하는 부품이다. 블레이드 제작 생산 과정과 사용 중에 발생하는 손상 및 결함은 신뢰성의 심각성에 큰 영향을 미치고 있어 본 기술에서는 블레이드에서 발생할 수 있는 결함 유형, 결함을 탐지하는 기술 그리고 신뢰성을 평가하는 시험/평가 기술에 대하여 소개하고자 한다.

풍력발전은 신재생에너지 설비 개발에 대한 적극적인 정책지원 등으로 인하여 이의 확대 보급이 가속화 되고 있다. 반면에 풍력발전은 특성상 전력품질 적정 유지 및 전력공급 신뢰도 측면에서 기존의 발전시스템에 비하여 상대적으로 취약한 형태이다. 따라서 전력계통에서 풍력발전 비중이 증가됨에 따라 나타날 수 있는 계통안정도 변화와 같은 동특성 분석이 절실히 요구되고 있다. 본 논문은 풍력발전시스템을 전력계통에 연계하여 이의 동특성을 해석하기 위해 풍력발전시스템을 모의하고 이의 영향을 검토한 사례이다.

본 연구의 목적은 차세대 대체에너지로 각광받는 풍력발전 중에서 육상발전보다 여러 가지 이점이 있는 한국형 해상풍력터빈 블레이드의 최적형상설계를 위한 알고리즘을 구현하는 것이다. 블레이드 단면 익형의 양력과 항력 분포는 XFOIL을 이용하여 예측하였다. 첫 번째 수준의 설계변수인 각각의 블레이드 지름과 축 회전수에서 익형의 공력변수들과 최소에너지손실 조건을 이용하여 두 번째 설계변수인 각 블레이드 단면에서의 시위길이와 피치각 분포를 최적화하였다. 그리고 성능결과를 바탕으로 반응면을 구성하고, 확률적 방법을 이용하여 타당성 있는 설계공간까지 첫 번째 설계변수를 이동시키고 구배최적화 기법을 통해 각각의 제약함수를 만족하면서 목적함수를 죄대로 하는 최적블레이드 형상을 구현하였다. 설계된 최적형상에 대해 탈설계점 해석을 수행하여 성능을 구하였다.

This study aimed to investigate differences in turbulence intensity and turbine loads among onshore wind farms located in various types of terrain. To achieve this, simulations were conducted for two onshore wind farms with identical wind turbines and capacity but situated on complex and flat terrains. The simulations used meteorological data gathered over a 10-year period from automatic weather stations nearest to the wind farms. WindSim and WindPRO software tools were employed for wind field and load analysis, respectively. The simulation results revealed that wind farm A, situated on complex terrain, exhibited significantly higher effective turbulence intensity than wind farm B on flat terrain, as expected. Consequently, the load indices of several wind turbines exceeded 100 % in wind farm A, indicating that the turbines could not reach their design lifespan. From the simulation study, aimed at reducing both the effective turbulence intensity and turbine loads, it became evident that while increasing turbine spacing could decrease effective turbulence intensity to some extent, it couldn't completely resolve the issue due to the inherently high ambient turbulence intensity on complex terrain. The problem with wind turbine loads could only be completely resolved by using wind turbines with a turbine class of A+, corresponding to a reference turbulence intensity of 0.18.

Floating LiDAR systems (FLSs) are used in many countries because they are easier to install than stationary weather towers, have low maintenance costs, and can be installed in deep sea areas. However, FLSs are rarely used in Korea due to a lack of clear evaluation criteria to verify the reliability and uncertainty of their measurements. This study is the first to verify the reliability of FLSs in Korea with one-year simultaneous observation of six lidar systems - two fixed and four floating systems - in sea areas of Gunsan and Yeonggwang. The reliability of FLSs measurement data was verified by comparison between fixed and floating systems. Moreover, differences between existing wind resource maps and the data observed from the six points were analyzed and wind resource maps were calibrated. The results show a return rate of more than 95 % of the observed data and strong correlations between fixed and floating systems (average R2 of 0.977). Additionally, errors in wind speed predictions to produce a wind resource map could be significantly reduced from 5.7 % to 0.6 % after calibrations with the observation data.

In order to secure the safety of increasing offshore activities such as offshore wind farm maintenance and fishing, IMPACT, a mid-term marine weather forecasting system, was established by predicting marine weather up to 7 days in advance. Forecast data from the Korea Hydrographic and Oceanographic Agency (KHOA), which provides the most reliable marine meteorological service in Korea, was used, but wind speed and wave height forecast errors increased as the leading forecast period increased, so improvement of the accuracy of the model results was needed. The Model Output Statistics (MOS) method, a post-correction method using statistical machine learning, was applied to improve the prediction accuracy of wave height, which is an important factor in forecasting the risk of marine activities. Compared with the observed data, the wave height prediction results by the model before correction for 6 to 7 days ahead showed an RMSE of 0.692 m and R of 0.591, and there was a tendency to underestimate high waves. After correction with the MOS technique, RMSE was 0.554 m and R was 0.732, confirming that accuracy was significantly improved.

In this paper, the purpose is a study on structural analysis for offshore wind turbine using commercial code. Because offshore wind turbine is subjected to great wind and wave force, it is necessary to analyse the dynamics and minimize the response of wind turbine. The offshore wind turbine tower is modelled as a single degree of freedom and multi degree of freedom structure. It is assumed that the blades, nacelle are composed of concentrated masses.
