Wave power distribution is investigated to determine the optimal sites for wave power generation at Jeju sea which has the highest wave energy density in the Korean coastal waters. The spatial and seasonal variation of wave power per unit length is calculated in the Jeju sea area based on the monthly mean wave data from 1979 to 2002 which is produced by the SWAN wave model simulation in prior research. The selected favorable locations for wave power generation are compared in terms of magnitude of wave energy density and distribution characteristics of wave parameters. The results suggest that Chagui-Do is the most optimal site for wave power generation in the Jeju sea. The seasonal distribution of wave energy density reveals that the highest wave energy density occurs in the northwest sea in the winter and it is dominated by wind waves, while the second highest one happens at south sea in the summer and it is dominated by a swell sea. The annual average of wave energy density shows that it gradually increases from east to west of the Jeju sea. At Chagui-Do, the energy density of the sea swell sea is relatively uniform while the energy density of the wind waves is variable and strong in the winter.

To establish an offshore wind turbine test site, a wind resource assessment of the candidate site is required as a preliminary procedure. The wind resource assessment must be performed with at least one year of wind data. If the assessment is performed with short-term wind data, the results cannot validate the wind conditions of the candidate site. This study performs wind resource assessment of Kokunsangun-do to investigate the wind conditions of the candidate site. The wind data is measured by the Automatic Weather System (AWS) of the Korea Meteorological Administration, located at Maldo. The data is for five years, measured from 2013 to 2017. Measured wind data is statistically processed with a 10-minute average scheme to find out the dominant wind direction and wind power density, with yearly wind speed distribution (Weibull-based). This study contributes to build a database of wind energy resources around Maldo. Also, the results of this study could be used for the establishment of an offshore wind turbine test site.

풍력발전단지의 신규 개발과 안정적인 운영 계획 수립을 위해 기후변화에 따른 미래 풍력에너지의 변동성 정보를 파악하는 것이 필요하다. 본 연구는 IPCC 5차 보고서에서 새롭게 도입된 대표농도경로(Representative Concentration Pathway)를 적용한 기후변화 시나리오 자료를 활용하여 2006년부터 2040년까지의 가까운 미래에 대한 풍력에너지(풍력에너지밀도와 잠재전력생산량)의 시 공간적 변동성을 분석하고자 한다. 사용된 기후변화 시나리오는 지역기후모델 HadGEM3-RA를 이용해 생산된 RCP2.6과 8.5자료이다. 시나리오 생산의 기반이 된 지역기후모델을 과거기간에 대하여 ECMWF의 ERA-interim 재분석자료와 비교분석한 결과, 지역 기후모델은 풍력에너지를 육지에서는 과소, 바다에서는 과대 모의하였다. 그리고 변동성 역시 육지에서 과소, 바다에서는 과대 모의하였다. 미래 풍력에너지는 RCP 시나리오별로 다소 차이가 나타나지만 육지에서 증가, 바다에서는 감소할 것으로 예측되었으며 고도가 높은 산지 및 해안지역에서 미래 풍력에너지의 변동성이 증가할 것으로 분석되었다. 지역별 풍력에너지밀도 분석결과 제주에서 크게 증가할 것으로 예상되었으며 변동성도 크게 증가하였다. 미래 풍력에너지의 변동은 주변 기상장의 변화와 연관 지어 해석이 가능하였으나 큰 변동성으로 인한 불확실성이 증가할 것으로 판단할 수 있다. 본 연구를 통해서 분석된 결과는 미래 에너지 수급 및 활용계획 수립에 있어 기초자료로 활용될 수 있으리라 판단한다.

In order to investigate of possibility for developing urban wind power, wind profile and wind power density are estimated using Sodar and Lidar based on surface. Since poor performance of Sodar and Lidar are often shown in a paticular meteorological condition, inter-comparison and validation with radio-sonde for each of instruments are performed. As a result, Lidar shows a good performance and wind data from Lidar are used to analyze wind profile and wind power density. It can be found that a wind power system mounted tall building in urban area is very attractive.

This paper presents and overview analysis on the observed wind shear at Pohang Steel Works. focusing on diurnal patterns and the frequency of high nighttime shear at the site in case of land breeze. In addition, this paper discusses the importance of accurate shear estimation for reliable evaluation of wind energy density. In order for long-term correlation of the site, three Measure-Correlate-Predict methods were tested with Pohang wind data and it was shown that the linear MCP gives poor estimation due to the topological characteristics of complex terrain where the severe transformation of wind direction was accompanied.

Over the last decade, wind turbine industry has rapidly increased around world. These days many parts of the wind generators are induction generator. But it has some problems such as gearbox failure, rotor excitation and maintenance. Thus many manufacturers are considered permanent magnet synchronous generator named PMSG and direct drive. PMSG uses NdFeB magnet has many the advantage compare with induction generator. In this study, 3MW class outer rotor type PMSG for wind turbine is proposed. The generator features 2.6m stator outer radius, 1200mm stator length, 81 pole pairs, 14 rated rpm, 42kN/$m^2$ shear force density and 94.2% efficiency. Design and analysis generator using FEM program. Then calculate and derivate no load voltage, losses, conductor temperature. To reduce total harmonic distortion and cogging torque, the stator is applied the stator skewing. And to evaluate the designed generator, compare with other generators by active mass per rating torque and torque density.

To understand general status of the national wind environment and to distinguish potential areas to be developed as a largescale wind farm, a synoptic wind map of the Korean Peninsula is established by processing remote sensing data of the satellite, NASA QuikSCAT which Is deployed for the SeaWinds Project since 1999. According to the validation results obtained by comparing with the measurement data of marine buoys of KMA(Korea Meteorological Administration), the cross-correlation factor Is greatly Improved up to 0.87 by blending the sea-surface dat3 of QuikSCAT with NCEP/NCAR CDAS data. It is found from the established synoptic wind map that the wind speed in winter is prominent temporally and the South Sea shows high energy density up to the wind class 6 spatially. The reason is deduced that the northwest winds through the yellow Sea and the northeast winds through the East Sea derived by the low-pressure developed in Japan are accelerated passing through the Korea Channel and formed high wind energy region in the South Sea; the same trends are confirmed by the statistical analysis of meteorological observation data of KMA.

This paper presents an estimation method of national wind resource potential using a national and GIS(Geographical Information System). The wind resource potential is classified into theoretical, geographical and technical potentials and each category narrows down the previous definition by excluding impossible area to be developed as a wind farm using GIS datasets for onshore and offshore. As a basic unit of wind energy potential at a certain area, API(Average Power Intercepted) is calculated from WPD(Wind Power Density) given by a national wind map which is established by numerical wind simulation, so that a logical and relatively accurate potential estimation is possible comparing with other methods based on a field measurement interpolation which is inevitable to avoid critical assumptions.

The wind speed at the altitude around 300 m is much higher and less variable than at the altitude around 80 m which is the same height of the MW class tower turbine's hub height. The wind power density is increased 0.37 W/$m^2$ per meter at the altitude around 6 to 7 km and 0.25 W/$m^2$ per meter at the altitude around 80 to 500 m. There are two types of power generation systems using lifting bodies. The one is that The generator is installed in the ground station and stretched into the lifting body through the tether. The other is that the generator is installed in the lifting body and stretched into the ground station through the tether. Many kinds of lifting bodies are also researched in the world, called kites, wings, single or twin aerostat, and so on. This article introduced the technical development status and the market prospects of the high altitude wind power generation system all over the world in detail.

풍속의 세제곱에 비례하는 풍력발전기의 전기발전량을 효과적으로 증대시키기 위해서는, 풍속이 강한 부지 선정이 중요하다. 일반적으로 내륙지역보다 풍속이 강한 연안지역에 풍력발전기를 설치하는 것이 바람직하다. 또, 해상풍력개발은 풍력발전기의 중요한 단점 중 하나인 소음 문제를 해결할 수 있는 방법으로 기대된다. 풍력개발 사업을 실행하는 과정에서, 어떤 지역의 풍력발전 가능성을 미리 파악하는 것은 풍력발전의 최적지를 선정하는데 있어서 중요한 요소들 중 하나이다. 본 연구는 기상청이 10년간 관측한 제주도 14개 지역의 풍향 및 풍속데이터를 가지고 제주 연안지역의 풍력발전 가능성에 대해 검토하였다. 풍력발전기의 설치높이를 80 m로 가정하고 풍속데이터를 보정하였으며, 이 값을 가지고 풍력에너지 밀도와 연간 풍력에너지량을 산출하였다. 그리고 모든 관측지점의 연간 전기발전량과 에너지취득률은 3,000 KW 풍력발전기에 관한 정보를 이용하여 산출되었다.
