This paper presents the various analysis of the power system for operating the new SIHWA tidal power plant. In the analysis of the power system, summer load condition of 2011 is used. Especially, power flow, fault current, voltage and contingency of SIHWA tidal power plant area are analyzed by using PSS/E and there is no problem for the dynamic stability simulation. The new SIHWA tidal power plant is located in near metropolitan area where about 43% amount of the system load is consumed. Therefore, transmission losses are reduced. In addition, system marginal price can be lowered by generating the new SIHWA tidal power plant. The generation pattern of the SIHWA tidal plant is analyzed and the changes of generation are presented for various water levels by control of the rotor angle alpha and beta in water wheel generator.

Tidal current power system is one of ocean renewable energies that can minimize the environmental impact with many advantages compared to other energy sources. Not like others, the produced energy can be precisely predicted without weather conditions and also the operation rate is very high. To convert the current into power, the first device encountered to the incoming flow is the rotor that can transform into rotational energy. The performance of rotor can be determined by various design parameters including numbers of blade, sectional shape, diameter, and etc. The stream lines near the rotating rotor is very complex and the interference effects around the system is also difficult to predict. This paper introduces the experiment of rotor performance and also the effect of design parameter on the performance of HAT rotor by CFD.

최근 지구온난화 문제가 대두되면서 신재생에너지 개발을 위한 여러 기술적인 해결책이 제시되고 있는데, 그 중 산업적으로 크게 주목을 받고 있는 분야가 바로 해양에너지이다. 삼면이 바다로 둘러싸인 우리나라는 부존자원이 풍부하여 조력, 조류, 파력에너지에 대한 실용화 기술이 요구되고 있으며, 특히 빠른 조류흐름을 이용하는 조류발전은 해양환경에 거의 영향을 끼치지 않는 친환경적인 발전 방법이다. 조류발전은 조수간만에 의해 발생되는 해수의 자연적인 수평 유체흐름을 로터 및 발전기를 설치하여 회전운동으로 변환시켜 전력을 생산하는 발전 형태이다. 조류발전은 로터의 방향에 따라 크게 수평축 형태와 수직축 형태로 구별할 수 있으며, 발전량은 로터 단면의 크기와 조류속도에 따라 큰차이가 난다. 따라서 본 연구는 저수심형 100 kW급 수평축 조류발전 터빈의 성능해석을 위하여 상용 ANSYS-CFX를 이용하여 3차원 유동해석및 성능평가를 수행하였고, 유동해석을 통해 회전하는 로터 블레이드 표면 유선, 로터 주변 3차원 유동특성에 대해 고찰을 하였다. 그 결과 토크는 터빈의 날개가 증가함에 따라 증가하다가 TSR 3.77에서 최대토크가 발생하였으며, 그 이후 날개끝 속도비가 증가해도 토크는 감소하였다. 또한, 설계유속에서 0.38의 최대 출력계수를 얻었다.

Incheon Bay of Korea is one of the most famous regions for high tidal range. Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs(MLTM) has implemented preliminary investigation for tidal power energy development in this area since 2006. Through field observations, various kinds of marine data consisting of depth and geography, marine weather, tidal currents, wave, seawater characteristics, geology, marine ecosystem and marine environment were gathered. To use these data efficiently for the determining of feasibility of developing and appropriateness of project scale, spatial data management and application system is essential. Therefore, in this study, the concept, methodology and procedure of spatial data modeling are defined for tidal energy development. Spatial data modeling consists of essential model relating to tidal energy directly and optional model including environmental factors. Essential model is composed with fundamental elements like as depth, geography, and several numerical modeling results(tide, tidal current, wave).

The feasibility study for tidal power plant (TPP) has been carried out for the Siwha area inside the Kyunggi bay of the Kyunggi Bay of the Yellow and East china Seas, by KORDI (Korea Ocean Research and Development Institute) and continuing research works for tidal energy development are under progress in the several sites inside the Kyunggi Bay. In this paper we describes some results of the modeling efforts in relation the tidal regime change by Siwha TPP operation, as well as other coastal oceanographic research works involved in TPP development in the coastal region.

Two ocean current power parks are suggested in the front and back of the Garyuk draining sluices of Saemankeum in Korea. They are characterized by installing a plurality of ocean current turbine generators which are arranged in five rows respectively in the land-side ocean current power park behind the Garyuk draining sluices and in the sea-side ocean current power park before the Garyuk draining sluices, generating electricity using the ocean current flowing through the Garyuk draining sluices in the ebbs and tides of Yellow sea. The potential energy of tidal difference of 2.611m at neap in Saemankeum can be converted into the kinetic energy of high speed ocean current via the Garyuk draining sluices which makes it possible to run the ocean current power parks on a large scale. The total facility capacity of two ocean current power parks that consist of 240 ocean current turbine generators with 4m diameter of turbine blades is about 134MW, and the expected total annual power output is about 586GWh.

Due to a high tidal range of up to 10 m on the west coast of Korea, numerous tidal current projects are being planned and constructed. The turbine, which initially converts the tidal energy, is an important component because it affects the efficiency of the entire system. Its performance is determined by design variables such as the number of blades, the shape of foils, and the size of a hub. To design a turbine that can extract the maximum power on the site, the depth and duration of current velocity with respect to direction should be considered. Verifying the performance of a designed turbine is important, and requires a circulating water channel (CWC) facility. A physical model for the performance test of the turbine should be carefully designed and compared to results from computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis. In this study, a horizontal axis tidal current turbine is designed based on the blade element theory. The proposed turbine's performance is evaluated using both CFD and a CWC experiment. The sealing system, power train, measuring devices, and generator are arranged in a nacelle, and the complete TCP system is demonstrated in a laboratory scale.

Many suggestions is offered to resolve global warming. Tidal current generation is producing power by switched tidal difference sea water horizontal fluid flow produced by tidal difference using rotor and generator. So, change the angle of inflow condition due to the entrance of efficiency are considered. We therefore investigated three dimensional flow analysis and performance evaluation using commercial ANSYS-CFX code for horizontal axis turbine. Then We also studied three dimensional flow characteristics of a rotating rotor and blade surface streamlines around a rotor. As a result, Cp was highest at TSR 5.5, especially the larger changes in the angle of inflow condition decreased efficiency.

본 연구에서는 GIS기반 적지분석을 적용하여 조류-양수 융합발전시설의 설치후보지역을 도출하는 것을 목표로 하였다. 연구대상지역은 진도 일대 서남해 해역이며, 융합발전시설의 설계 및 설치 특성을 고려하여 적지분석을 위한 고려인자를 도출하였다. MOHID(Modelo HIDrodin?mico)를 이용하여 조류 수치모의를 수행하였고, 모의 결과를 공간자료로 변환하였다. 이후 본 연구에서는 제안하는 GIS기반 중첩분석 방법을 적용하여 설치후보지역을 도출하였다. 연구 결과에서 총 10개 지역이 후보지역으로 도출되었으며, 이 중 진도, 성남도, 하조도가 상대적으로 넓은 해역에 대해 조류-양수 발전기 설치가 가능한 것으로 판단되었다.
