전 세계적으로 기후변화 등의 원인으로 산림화재가 대형화되고 있다. 산림이 국토의 약 63.7 %를 차치하며, 산림에 인접해서 산업시설 등의 주요시설들이 많은 국내의 경우에는 산림화재가 대형재난으로 확산될 가능성이 매우 높다. 이에 본 연구에서는 수관화로 발달한 산림화재에서 화염의 복사열이 미치는 피해영향거리를 풍속의 변화에 따라 분석하였다. 또한, 영향거리를 분석하기 위하여 주변시설에 미칠 수 있는 복사열의 안전기준을 조사하였으며, 기준 복사열로 $5kW/m^2$와 $12.5kW/m^2$, $37.5kW/m^2$를 제시하였다. 산림화재 피해영향평가를 위해 FDS의 산림화재 확장 프로그램인 WFDS를 활용하였고, 해석조건으로 국내에 일반적으로 분포가 높은 산림조건에 대해 조사하여 이를 적용하였다. 그 결과는 풍속에 따른 복사열 최대영향거리로 제시하였다. 풍속 0~10 m/s에 있어서 풍속의 증가에 따라 영향거리도 증가하는 경향이 있으며, 풍속 8 m/s에서 영향거리가 최대가 되었다. 또한, 최대 영향거리는 수목 연료의 함수율 증가에 따라 크게 감소하는 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구는 산림화재로 인한 주변시설의 피해영향을 정량적으로 평가하는데 기여할 수 있다.

This paper presents the MPPT(Maximum Power Point Tracking)control method of the PMSG wind generation system using the turbine model with a squirrel cage induction motor. The torque of squirrel cage induction turbine model is controlled by mathematization of speed characteristics of real blade. In this paper, maintenance and cost issues into consideration, except for previous method using information of the velocity of the wind speed sensor, the algorithm is presented. The algorithm is controlled by tracking the optimal point, the generator speed and maximum grid power. The vector controls of the generator side converter and the grid side converter are controlled respectively to obtain maximum torque and regulate unity power factor. With Psim simulations and experiments, the efficiency of squirrel cage induction turbine model and the validity of control algorithm are verified.

본 연구에서는 미국 NFPA 204 기준에 의해 설계된 수직 배연구에 대하여 배연구의 위치, 외기 온도, 풍속 및 화재크기가 자연배연 성능에 미치는 영향과 화재특성을 CFAST 프로그램을 사용하여 수치 해석적으로 조사하였다. 배연구는 외벽의 최고 상부에 위치한 경우와 외기온도가 낮은 경우 및 풍속이 작은 경우 배연성능기준을 만족하였다. 또 화재크기가 클수록 배출량은 증가하나 연기층 높이는 낮아져 배연성능기준을 만족하지 못하였다. 직접 외기와 통하는 수직 자연배연구의 설계시 해당지역의 최고 온도와 최대 풍속을 고려하고, 설계화재를 정확히 결정하여 배연성능기준이 만족되도록 주의가 요망된다.

Solar towers, which often has a large aspect ratio and low fundamental natural frequency, were extremely prone to large amplitude of wind-induced vibrations, especially Vortex-Induced Vibration (VIV). A tiny Tuned Mass Damper (TMD) with conveniently adjustable eddy current damping was specially designed and manufactured for elastic wind tunnel tests of a solar tower. A series of numerical simulations by using the COMSOL software were conducted to determine three key parameters, including the thickness of the back iron plate and the conductive plate (T_b and T_c), the distance between the magnet and the conductive plate (T_d). Based on the results of numerical simulations, a tiny TMD was manufactured and its structural parameters were experimentally identified. The optimized values of the tiny TMD can be conveniently realized. The tiny TMD was installed at the top of the elastic test model of a 243-meter-high solar tower, and a series of wind tunnel tests were carried out to examine the effectiveness of the TMD in suppressing wind-induced responses of the test model. The results showed that the wind-induced responses could be obviously reduced by the TMD, especially in the cross-wind direction. The cross-wind RMS and peak responses at the critical wind velocity can be reduced by about 86% and 75%, respectively. However, the maximum reduction of the responses at the design wind velocity is about 45%, obviously less than that at the critical wind velocity.

DMFC(Direct Methanol Fuel Cell) has been considered as an attractive option to produce electric power in many application. In this study, in order to estimate the effects of the methanol concentration, wind velocity and temperature on the performance of DMFC, a physical prototype of DMFC was designed and manufactured, and the stack voltage of DMFC was measured during the operation of DMFC. Expecially, the experimental results showed that a low stack temperature, a low wind velocity and an excess methanol concentration lead to the increase of the time to reach the maximum stack voltage.

When the relative humidity is measured with an aspirated psychrometer, three factors, which affect the measurement of relative humidity, are atmospheric pressure, the size of wet element and the wind velocity. This paper investigated the effects of the above three factors, and the computer code was developed in order to enhance the accuracy of the relative humidity measurement. As results, it is found that the relative humidity decreases by 6%RH with increasing atmospheric pressure from 650 mbar to 1100 mbar. It is found that the relative humidity drops down when the size of the wet element increases, though the effect of the size of the wet element is not significant. Finally, relative humidity increases with the increasing wind velocity. The difference between the psychrometic table in the present KS and the present results is about 2%RH maximum. As a conclusion, the three factors mentioned above should be considered in order to secure accurate measurement of relative humidity.

To determine tornadic wind loads, the wind pressure, forces and moments induced by tornadoes on civil structures have been studied. However, in most previous studies, only the individual building of interest was included in the wind field, which may be suitable to simulate the case where a tornado strikes rural areas. The statistical data has indicated that tornadoes induce more significant fatalities and property loss when they attack densely populated areas. To simulate this case, all buildings in the community of interest should be included in the wind field. However, this has been rarely studied. To bridge this research gap, this study will systematically investigate the influence of a community of buildings on tornadic wind fields by modeling all buildings in the community into the wind field (designated as "the Community case under tornadic winds"). For comparison, the case in which only a single building is included in the tornadic wind field (designated as "the Single-building case under tornadic winds") and the case where a community of buildings are included in the equivalent straight-line wind field (designated as "the Community case under straight-line winds") are also simulated. The results demonstrate that the presence of a number of buildings completely destroys the pattern of regular circular strips in the distribution of tangential velocity and pressure on horizontal planes. Above the roof height, the maximum tangential velocity is lower in the Community case under tornadic winds than that in the Single-building case under tornadic winds because of the higher surface friction in the Community case; below the roof height, greater tangential velocity and pressure are observed in the Community case under tornadic wind fields, and more unfavorable conditions are observed in the Community case under tornadic winds than under the equivalent straight-line winds.

Nowadays balanced cantilever construction plays an essential role as a sophisticated erection technique of bridges due to its economical and ecological advantages. Experience teaches that wind has a great importance with regard to this construction technique, but methods proposed by codes to take wind effects into account are still rather crude and, in most cases, completely lacking. Also research in this field is quite limited and aimed at studying only the longitudinal shear and the torque at the pier base, caused by the mean wind velocity and by the longitudinal turbulence actions over the deck. This paper advances the present solutions by developing a new procedure that takes into account all wind effects both on the deck and on the pier. The proposed model assumes the mean wind velocity as orthogonal to the bridge plane and considers the effects produced by all the three turbulence components and by the vortex shedding. The applications point out the role of each loading component on different bridge configurations and show that disregarding the presence of some effects may imply oversimplified results and relevant underestimations.

To gain insight into the wind-induced safety concerns associated with attached tower cranes during the construction of super-tall buildings, a 606 m level frame-core tube super-tall building is selected to investigate the wind-induced vibration response and fragility of an outer-attached tower crane at all stages of construction. The wind velocity time history samples are artificially generated and used to perform dynamic response analyses of the crane to observe the effects of wind velocity and wind direction under its working and non-working resting state. The adverse effects of the relative displacement response at different connection supports are also identified. The wind-resistant fragility curves of the crane are obtained by introducing the concept of incremental dynamic analysis. The results from the investigation indicate that a large relative displacement between the supports can substantially amplify the response of the crane at high levels. Such an effect becomes more serious when the lifting arm is perpendicular to the plane of the connection supports. The flexibility of super-tall buildings should be considered in the design of outer-attached tower cranes, especially for anchorage systems. Fragility analysis can be used to specify the maximum appropriate height of the tower crane for each performance level.

Up to now the design standard of tower for overhead transmission line in KEPCO was revised four times since 1970. During last year. we had reviewed this design standard. This paper shows the design standard of tower for overhead transmission line in KEPCO. In this standard, a kind of tower was defined as standard tower and special tower. Also we had defined usage range of standard tower, tower height, arrangement of power line, design condition of tower arm and etc. On the wind pressure, we had defined basic velocity pressure per region and maximum wind pressure. For special region, design wind pressure will be considered the receded wind velocity of meteorological observatory and regional condition by this standard.
