With growing of wind turbine industry, offshore wind energy is getting more attention in recent years. Among all the components of offshore wind turbines, the foundation of the offshore wind turbine plays a key role in stability of whole system. In this work, the 5 MW NREL reference wind turbine with rated speed of 11.4 m/s is used for load calculation. Wind and wave loads are calculated using GH-Bladed (Garard Hassan) and FAST (NREL). Additionally, FE simulation is carried out to investigate the wave effect on the support structure. Meanwhile, this work is to simulate systemic and optimized load cases for the foundation analysis of wind turbine system.

The foundation insert is a tubular steel section which is embedded into the concrete of the foundation. The tower base section of the wind turbine is mounted on it. It has a top flange (L type) protruding far enough above the concrete to allow bolts to be inserted from underneath. The load is transmitted to the concrete at the base of the section through a T shaped flange. It has many holes for the reinforcements and the cables. The reinforcements of the concrete foundation run through the insert via a series of holes to bind the inner section to the outer section. Holes are provided for the power and communications cabling. The design follows normal European wind turbine practice, based on GL 2003 and Eurocode regulations.

본 연구는 해상풍력발전기 기초 설계에 사용되는 IEC 61400-3, DNV-OS-J101, GL Wind, EUROCODE, AASHTO 및 국내 설계기준의 설계방법 및 안전율의 정도를 비교, 분석함으로써, 국내에서 해상풍력발전기 기초 설계시 필요한 제반사항을 제공하고자 한다. 해상풍력발전기 기초 설계에 관한 국내외 설계기준을 분석한 결과 설계법은 크게 설계접근법, 하중저항 설계법, 허용응력설계법을 적용하고 있으며, 각 설계법에 따른 안전율 정도를 분석한 결과 하중저항계수 설계법과 설계접근법은 거의 유사한 수준의 안전율을 확보하고 있는 반면, 허용응력설계법에서는 다소 보수적인 안전율을 적용하고 있어 해상풍력발전기 기초의 경제적 설계를 위한 국내 설계기준 개발이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Offshore wind energy is gaining more and more attention during this decade. For the countries with coast sites, the water depth is significantly large. This causes attention to the floating wind turbine. Offshore wind turbines are designed and analyzed using comprehensive simulation codes that account for the coupled dynamics of the wind inflow, aerodynamics, elasticity and controls of the wind turbine, along with the incident waves, sea current, hydrodynamics, and foundation dynamics of the support structures. In this work, a three-bladed 5MW upwind wind turbine installed on a floating spar buoy in 320m of water is studied by using of fully coupled aero-hydro-servo-elastic simulation tool. Specifications of the structures are chosen from the OC3 (Offshore Code Comparison Collaboration) under "IEA Wind Annex XXIII-subtask2". The primary external conditions due to wind and waves are simulated. Certain design load case is investigated.

해상풍력터빈 시스템은 크게 상부의 풍력터빈과 하부의 지지구조로 구성된다. 해상풍력발전은 육상용 풍력발전보다 우수하다는 평가가 지배적이지만 육상용 풍력발전에서 고려되지 않는 파랑에 의한 주기적인 하중이 추가로 고려되기 때문에 다양한 외부 환경조건에 대하여 높은 안정성 확보가 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 전산유체역학 기법을 활용하여 설계된 해상풍력 하부구조에 대한 하중해석을 수행하고 유한요소해석을 통해 설계된 자중조절형 해상풍력 기초에 대한 구조 건전성을 검토하였다.

Foundation plays an important role in the offshore wind turbine system. Different from conventional foundations, the suction caisson is proven to be economical and reliable. In this work, three-dimensional finite element method is used to check the suitability of suction caisson foundation. NREL 5MW wind turbine is chosen as a baseline model in our simulation. The maximum overturning moment and vertical load at the mudline are calculated using FAST and Bladed. Meanwhile the soil-structure interaction response from our simulation is also compared with the experiment data from Oxford university. The design parameter such as caisson length, diameter of skirt and spacing of multipod are investigated. Accordingly based on these parameters suggestions are given to use suction caisson foundations more efficiently.

Nowadays, offshore wind energy experiences a rapid development because of its wind condition and no noise impact problem. Different from Europe, offshore wind is just started in Asia. More work and research are needed in Korea. In this work, a three-bladed upwind variable speed pitch controlled 5MW wind turbine on a jacket support structure is used. During the simulation, several design load cases are investigated in two different fully coupled aero-hydro-servo-elastic codes. Some critical loads on the foundation are compared and analyzed.

Recently, it has been a worldwide issue to develop offshore wind farm based on the past technical experiences of onshore wind turbine installation. In Korea, the government has the wind-energy to be a new-sustainable field of development to bring green-growth in near future and put political and fiscal efforts to support the academic and industrial technical development. Especially, there are much advancement for the fields of turbine, blade, bearing, grid connection, ETC. Correspondingly, technical needs do exist for the offshore foundation installation techniques in geotechnical point of view. Within few years, 2~5MW offshore wind turbines will be constructed at about 30m water depth and it is known that monopiles of D=4~6m are suitable types of foundation. In order to construct offshore wind-turbine foundation, technical developments for drilling machine, design manual, monitoring&maintenance technique are required. This paper presents technical issues with related to offshore wind farm and large diameter monopile in the point of renewable energy development.

최근 석유 에너지 고갈의 문제에 봉착함에 따라 신재생 에너지, 즉 풍력 에너지 분야에 대한 연구가 자연스럽게 부각되고 있다. 그 중 해상풍력은 육상풍력에 비교해 바람 자원이 풍부하기 때문에 효율성 측면에서 주목 받고 있지만 전체 시스템의 설치비용에 따른 경제성이 중요한 문제가 되고 있다. 일반적으로 해상 풍력 사업의 구성비에서 지지구조물 설치비용의 비율이 통상 25% 이상을 차지하는 경향이 있으며, 설계된 지지구조에 대해 정확한 해석과 분석이 가능 하다면 설치 및 시공분야의 경제성을 확보하는데 중요한 역할을 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 해상 부유식 풍력발전시스템의 경제성 확보에 중요한 역할을 할 수 있는 석션버켓 기초의 지반연성 비선형 구조해석 기법을 구축하고 이에 대한 검증을 위해 실험결과와 비교검증을 수행하였다.
