In the present paper, the practicability of Commentray on Wind Loads of Korean Standard Design Loads fur Buildings, which has been enacted in Minstry of Construction and Transportation in June 2000, is validated by using the meteorological data measured at Homi-Cape, Pohang. Assuming that the vertical wind profile follows the power-law in a quasi-steady state, wind profile exponents are calculated by seasons by using wind data as collected through four monitoring towers. According to the Commentray on Wind Loads, Pohang is classified with its exposure category being B and the wind profile exponent being 0.22, while it is identified that the average wind profile exponent as calculated in this study is 0.26. Also, in this paper, a cross-correlation method is suggested in order to identify any meteorological correlation between measurement sites quantitatively.

An analysis of wind environments using computational fluid dynamics and an evaluation of wind resources using measurement data obtained from meteorological observation sites at Homi-Cape, Pohang have been carrid out for siting a wind farm. It was shown that a numerical simulation using computational fluid dynamics would provide reliable wind resource map in complex terrain with land-sea breeze condition. As a result of this investigation, Homi-Cape wind farm with 11.25 ㎿ capacity has been designed for maximum power generation and 25.7 GWh electricity production is predicted.

This paper introduces a radio-wave interference assessment of wind turbines that were planned to be installed at Homi-Cape in Pohang region where wind resource has been evaluated worthwhile developing a wind farm. In that area, AM radio station with two antennas and a harbor radar facility are located so that radio-wave coupling is inevitable if the wind farm is designed without considering radio-wave environmental impact. A low-frequency analysis using MoM (Method of Moment) is used to examine interference effect caused by wind turbines and an optimal layout minimizes coupling effect is presented.
