A load-cell-type anemovane operates based on wind vector properties. The developed load-cell-type anemovane is of a fixed type in which the wing does not rotate, unlike in the case of existing anemovanes. The load-cell-type anemovane is required to accurately derive the correlation between the load ratio and the wind direction in order to develop a qualified product. This is because the load ratio repeats every $90^{\circ}$ owing to the use of four load cells, and its value varies nonlinearly according to the wind direction. In this study, we compared analytical results with experimental results. Fluid analysis was carried out using ANSYS CFX. Furthermore, the prototype was tested using a self-manufactured wind tunnel. The wind direction was selected as the design variable. 13 selected wind direction conditions ranging from $0^{\circ}$ to $90^{\circ}$ with an interval of $7.5^{\circ}$ for analysis were defined. Furthermore, 10 wind direction conditions with an interval of $10^{\circ}$ for the experiment were defined. We derived the relations between the pressure ratio and the wind direction through the experiment and fluid analysis.

Anemometer is a meteorological instrument that measures wind direction and wind speed in real time, and is mounted to the cranes that are used at ports, shipbuilding yards, off-shore structure, or construction sites that are influenced by wind, and it is used in conjunction with the safety system. Load cell-type anemometer measures the wind direction through the ratio of load between 4 positions by mounting the thin plate to 4 load cells, and measures wind velocity through the summation of loads. In this study, we compared and analyzed the results in the theoretic approach, analytic approach and experimental approach to derive the correlation between load ratio and wind direction. Wind direction was selected as the design variable, and selected 9 wind direction conditions from $0^{\circ}{\sim}90^{\circ}$ with $11.25^{\circ}$ space for analysis, and 10 wind direction conditions with $10^{\circ}$ space for experiment.

This study developed a smartwatch and a wind speed system in accordance with the necessity of a device that provides the information required in marine leisure. Based on a marine leisure smartwatch with a multi-sensor, a gyro box, and a wind speed system, external data such as GPS, motion, humidity, temperature, air pressure, and heart rate can be collected. In addition, the collected external environment data can be managed through an application on a smartphone, which is an Android-based mobile device. The developed smartwatch and wind speed system are expected to contribute to increasing accessibility and revitalization of the marine leisure industry. In addition, in terms of safety and education, the need for a device that provides marine information is large, so it is expected to increase the possibility of entering the high value-added market and improve the product localization rate.

Anemometer is a meteorological instrument that measures wind direction and wind speed in real time, and is mounted to the cranes that are used at ports, shipbuilding yards, off-shore structure, or construction sites that are influenced by wind, and it is used in conjunction with the safety system. Load cell-type anemometer measures the wind direction through the ratio of load between 4 positions by mounting the thin plate to 4 load cells, and measures wind velocity through the summation of loads. According to previous research, the load ratio between two adjacent windswept with respect to the wind direction has unstable value due to vortex around windswept. This causes the result that increases an error on the wind direction. In this study we compared and analyzed the difference between the load ratio with respect to three type windswept shapes in order to suggest the proper windswept shape to reduce this error. The computational fluid flow analysis is carried out with ANSYS CFX to analyze the load ratio between three windswept shapes. Wind direction was adopted as the design variable, and selected 9 wind direction conditions from $0^{\circ}{\sim}90^{\circ}$ with $11.25^{\circ}$ interval for computational fluid flow analysis.

Until now ship communication micro serial network communication method is designed for the communication between the controller and the RS-422 communication on the international standard ISO 1993, but gradually progresses NMEA 2000 standardized fast Ethernet-based communications environments expected to be replaced. In addition, the ship's main instrumentation equipment versatility with ease gradually to control devices by monitoring and controlling are. Wind anemometer, ship mast end, where the highest wind farms typically install a separate console boxes, data loggers, indicators was required in order to manage them, to maintain them, to go through the procedures and cumbersome data update firmware were Therefore, in this paper, using the PC network, ultrasonic wind speed data processing system for implementing functional was expressed as a function of the technology elements, NMEA 2000 standard certified in separate operating console without the features of the data loggers, indicators, implementation by ultrasonic wind data processing system was implemented to minimize the maintenance cost of the operating system.

During the sea trial test for the aerovane in AOE-II, a malfunction occurred in the wind detector movement around 40 to 90° on the starboard side and around 270 to 320° on the port side. The purpose of this study was to analyze and improve the cause of the above phenomenon. The wind detector was covered with a mast structure and was not affected directly by the blowing wind, and a vortex air current was formed behind the mast structure, causing the motion malfunction. The above problem was solved by moving and installing the wind detector on the newly installed mast yard. After conducting vibration analysis and reviewing the effects of vibration, the wind detector was installed in the new mast yard and verified by a sea trial test. Since the improvement plan was slightly effective, the position of the wind detector moved away from the mast on the new mast yard and was re-verified through a sea trial test. The movement malfunction of the wind detector did not occur, confirming that it is an appropriate improvement plan.

In a previous study, a technique for measuring wind speed and direction by using a roll-rotating three-axis ultrasonic anemometer was proposed and verified by wind tunnel tests. In the tests, instead of a roll sensor, roll angle was trimmed to make no up flow in the transformed wind speeds. Verification was done in point of the residual error of the rotation effect treatment. In this study, roll angle was measured from the roll motor encoder and the transformed wind speed and direction on the test section axis were compared with the ones provided to the test section. As a result, up to yaw $20^{\circ}$ at a wind speed of 12 m/sec or over, the RMS error of wind speed was within the double of the ultrasonic anemometer error. But at yaw $30^{\circ}$, it was over the double of the ultrasonic anemometer error. Regardless of wind speed, at yaw $20^{\circ}$ and $30^{\circ}$, the direction error was within the double of the ultrasonic anemometer error. But at yaw $10^{\circ}$ or less, it was within the error of the ultrasonic anemometer itself. This is a very favorable characteristic to be used for wind turbine yaw control.

본 연구에서는 실제 풍력 자원 측정용 Pole에 설치된 풍속계가 mast에 의한 후류와 풍속계 설치시 기울어짐에 의해 풍속 data가 어떠한 영향을 받는가에 대하여 고찰하였다. 먼저 mast은 직경 4", 6" Pipe에 대하여 각각 실험하였고, 측정 mast의 방위각은 풍속에 평행한 방향을 $0^{\circ}$ 로 정하고 측정 mast 중심으로부터 $0^{\circ}{\sim}20^{\circ}$ 까지 $5^{\circ}$ 간격으로 측정하였다. 이 연구를 통해 실제 일정 두께를 갖는 mast에 설치되어 있는 풍속계에서의 풍속이 풍향에 대한 boom의 위치와 기울어짐에 따라 영향이 있음을 확인할 수 있었고, mast의 직경에 대한 영향도 크게 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서, 본 연구의 결과를 이용하여 향후의 풍력자원 자료 측정설비의 설치상의 정확도 검증이나 혹은 측정된 자료의 보정등에도 광범위하게 이용될 수 있을 것이다.

인공위성 SAR센서는 기존 산란계 해상풍 자료의 낮은 해상도로 인한 여러 한계를 극복함으로써 다양한 해양연구에 있어 필요성과 활용영역이 넓어지고 있다. 이러한 추세에 따라 전세계적으로 다파장 SAR 센서들이 운용 또는 발사 예정에 있음에도 불구하고 현재까지 한반도 주변해에 대한 SAR 해상풍 산출 연구는 C밴드에만 한정되어왔다. 본 연구에서는 L밴드 해상풍 추출알고리즘을 적용하여 L밴드 SAR 영상으로부터 한반도 주변해의 해상풍을 추출하고 산란계 해상풍 자료와 비교 분석을 통해 정확도 특성을 제시하고자 하였다. 2007년 8월 우리나라 동해 지역을 관측한 L밴드 ALOS PALSAR 영상에 대해 L밴드 HH편광 GMF 알고리즘을 적용하여 해상풍을 산출하였다. 산출 해상풍은 동일시점의 산란계 QuikSCAT 자료와 공간적으로 유사한 패턴을 보였으며 두 자료 간의 풍속오차는 3.45m/s로 나타났다. 연구 해역과 같이 강한 바람 범위에서는 산출 해상풍 간의 차이가 크게 나타나며 풍향으로 인한 오차특성이 보인다. 특히 풍속의 경우, 산란계 해상풍이 중간바람 범위에 집중된 것에 비해 L밴드 SAR 산출 해상풍은 강한 바람 범위까지 포함하는 넓은 풍속값 범위를 나타냈다.
