최근 지구 환경문제에 대한 국제적 관심이 높아지고 있는 가운데 신재생 에너지의 도입에 대한 중요성이 더욱 부각되고 있다. 풍력발전은 신재생 에너지의 한 분야로써 미래의 대체에너지 자원으로 주목받고 있으며 이에 대한 연구개발이 활발히 진행되고 있다. 풍력발전시스템 가운데 타워구조물은 지속적이고 안정된 발전을 위해 중요한 역할을 하고 있으며 다양한 해석모델을 활용하여 연구개발이 이뤄지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 풍력터빈타워의 해석모델이 고유진동수 해석결과에 미치는 영향에 대해 분석해 보았다. 해석결과 타워의 세부적 부분을 타워 강재 단위중량으로 치환한 모델은 1차 고유진동수와 0.14%의 차이를 보여 모델링의 간소화가 가능 할 것으로 판단하였으며, 경계조건의 따라 고유진동수가 10%이상의 차이가 발생하는 것을 보아 단순 고정단 해석은 실제 거동을 나타내지 못하는 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구 결과는 적합한 해석모델링 기준을 확립하는데 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

본 논문에서는 한국의 서남해상에 건설예정인 해상풍력발전타워의 지지구조물로 고려되고 있는 세발구조와 자켓구조의 선박충돌 거동을 비선형동적해석을 통하여 비교·분석하였다. 이 구조물은 3MW용량의 풍력타워를 지지하기 위하여 설계되었다. 두 지지구조는 쉘요소를 이용하여 비선형 거동을 고려할 수 있도록 모델링하였고, 발전기를 포함하는 상부의 타워구조물은 탄성재료를 이용하여 보요소와 집중질량으로 모델링하였다. 전체 질량은 세발구조가 자켓구조에 비하여 약 1.66배 정도였다. 바지선과 상선을 충돌선박으로 선정하여 모델링하였다. 조수차의 조건을 고려하여 충돌선박의 충돌위치를 평균해수면의 상하로 3.5m변동하는 것으로 고려하였다. 또한 각 선박의 최소충돌속도(=2.6m/s)에서의 충돌에너지를 각각 4배까지 증가시키면서 충돌거동을 산정하였다. 해석결과 지지구조 충돌부위의 강성이 클수록 선박의 소성에너지 소산량이 상대적으로 증가하였다. 충돌조건에 따라 풍력타워의 변형은 진동에서 붕괴까지 발생하였다. 세발구조가 자켓구조에 비하여 큰 충돌저항력을 보였다. 이는 중앙부에 강성이 집중된 구조적 특성과 상대적으로 많은 강재의 사용량에 기인한 것으로 판단된다.

In order to support wind power development in Jejudo, the island of winds, the wind resource database KIER-WindJeju has been established by meteor-statistical analysis on met-mast measurements of KIER. The analysis includes tower shading, exposure category, wind profile exponent for wind speed extrapolation to hub height of wind turbine, and correlation matrix between neighboring sites to assist choice of appropriate reference site for long-term correlation. KIER-WindJeju will be provided as an add-on of Google $Earth^{TM}$ and will be used as a guideline of future wind resource assessment in Jejudo.

The turbine industry demands a reliable design with affordable cost. As technological advances begin to support turbines of huge sizes, and the increasing importance of wind turbines from day to day make design safety conditions more important. Wind turbines are exposed to environmental conditions that can affect their installation, durability, and operation. International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 61400-1 design load cases consist of analyses involving wind turbine operating conditions. This design load cases (DLC) is important for determining fatigue loads (i.e., forces and moments) that occur as a result of expected conditions throughout the life of the machine. With the help of FAST (Fatigue, Aerodynamics, Structures, and Turbulence), an open source software, the NREL 5MW land base wind turbine model was used. IEC 61400-1 wind turbine design standard procedures assessed turbine behavior and fatigue damage to the tower base of dynamic loads in different design conditions. Real characteristic wind speed distribution and multi-directional effect specific to the site were taken into consideration. The effect of these conditions on the economic service life of the turbine has been studied.

As a key reinforcement connection between a tower and a substructure in offshore wind turbine system, the transition piece is inevitably subjected to cyclic dynamic environmental loads such as wind, current and wave. Therefore, well designed transition piece with high strength and good fatigue resistance is of great significance to the structural safety and reliability of offshore wind power systems. In this study, the structural behavior of the transition piece was studied by an extensive sets of finite element analyses. Three widely used types of transition piece were considered. The characteristics of stress development, fatigue life and weight depending on the type of the transition piece were investigated in the ultimate limit state (ULS) and the fatigue limit state (FLS) of a 5-MW offshore wind turbine to be placed in Korea. An optimal form of the transition piece was proposed based on this parametric study.

A 151 storey super high-rise building located in an area of reclaimed land constructed over soft marine clay in Songdo, Korea is currently under design. This paper describes the design process of the foundation system of the supertall tower, which is required to support the large building vertical and lateral loads and to restrain the horizontal displacement due to wind and seismic forces. The behaviour of the foundation system due to these loads and foundation stiffness influence the design of the building super structure, displacement of the tower, as well as the raft foundation design. Therefore, the design takes in account the interactions between soil, foundation and super structure, so as to achieve a safe and efficient building performance. The site lies entirely within an area of reclamation underlain by up to 20m of soft to firm marine silty clay, which overlies residual soil and a profile of weathered rock. The nature of the foundation rock materials are highly complex and are interpreted as possible roof pendant metamorphic rocks, which within about 50m from the surface have been affected by weathering which has reduced their strength. The presence of closely spaced joints, sheared and crushed zones within the rock has resulted in deeper areas of weathering of over 80m present within the building footprint. The foundation design process described includes the initial stages of geotechnical site characterization using the results of investigation boreholes and geotechnical parameter selection, and a series of detailed two- and three-dimensional numerical analysis for the Tower foundation comprising over 172 bored piles of varying length. The effect of the overall foundation stiffness and rotation under wind and seismic load is also discussed since the foundation rotation has a direct impact on the overall displacement of the tower.

A Jumper wire is currently used to connect each fixed power line on both sides of dead end tower for overhead transmission line, but in case of a jumper wire swing under circumstances of typhoon, etc. and the air clearance is deficient then a flashover fault may Happen. Now the angle tower has the jumper support string to prevent a swing of jumper wire and to secure the air clearance between jumper wire and tower main body, but the flashover fault by swing of jumper wire was happened yl times across all over the country, because of the typhoon 'Rusa' in year 2002 and 'Maemi' in year 2003. This paper presents the design and development of 'Counter Weight' which enables to keep the swing angle of jumper wire under 40 degree in design condition to prevent a flashover fault by swing of jumper wire by a high wind pressure load in case of typhoon and have completed a mechanical and electrical characteristic test.

In order to support the development of wind farms in Jejudo, a wind resource database for Jejudo has been established using a meteor-statistical analysis of KIER(Korea Institute of Energy Research) met-mast measurements and KMA(Korea Meteorological Administration) weather data. The analysis included wind statistics, tower shading, an exposure category classification using satellite images, the effect of atmospheric stability on the wind profile exponent, and a correlation matrix of wind speed to gain an understanding of the meteorological correlation between long-term weather observation stations and short-term met-mast measurements. The wind resource database for Jejudo, is to be provided as an add-on to Google $Earth^{TM}$, which is expected to be utilized as a guideline for the selection of an appropriate reference site for long-term correction in the next wind farm development project.

Wind power system is composed by 3 major parts, rotor blade, nacelle and tower. Especially, the nacelle cover has an important role to prevent the component of nacelle and rotor from an extreme external circumstance. Therefore it is necessary to analyze and evaluate the stress distribution and deformation for them in the design level. There are two major points in nacelle cover analysis. The one is nacelle cover itself and the other is cover support structure. According to GL specification, this study shows the result that CFRP nacelle cover of wind turbine satisfies the strength and deformation through numerical analysis using the commercial finite element analysis program.
