In the present study, the wind characteristics were analyzed according to the time averages to evaluate the performance of small wind turbines required for the development of energy independent village. Measuring data of wind speed were recorded between January 2016 and April 2016 every second. Experimental data is averaged out using 5, 10, 15, 20 and 30 minute time steps. Throughout the experimental data analysis, 5 minutes averaged data is used to analyze the performance of the wind turbine, because it produces a minimum turbulence intensity in wind speed. The measuring power of the wind turbine is less than the designed value due to the unsteady nature wind of sudden changes in magnitude of wind speed and wind angle. Detailed wind conditions are also analysed using two variable Weibull probability density functions.

In accordance with Madrid and Kyoto Protocols, a 10kw wind turbine installed about 625m away from the King Sejong Station in the Antarctica has been in operation successfully. The current location of the wind turbine has different geographic surroundings from the previous candidate site considered in 2005 and that makes re-evaluation of wind resource at the current site including geographic effects necessary. Especially, strong wind flow derived by steep and complex terrain is dominant in the Antarctica so that computational flow analysis is required. The wind rose measured at the previous and current installation location are identical with strong meteorological correlation but prevailing directions of wind power density are different because of local wind acceleration due to complex terrain. Numerical analysis explains which effects brings this discordance between the two sites, and a design guideline required for additional wind turbine installation has been secured.

Given that toxic substances are diffused by the various movements of the atmosphere, it is very important to evaluate the risks associated with this phenomenon. When analyzing the behavioral characteristics of these atmospheric diffusion models, the main input data are the wind speed and wind direction among the meteorological data. In particular, it is known that a certain wind direction occurs in summer and winter in Korea under the influence of westerlies and monsoons. In this study, synoptic meteorological observation data provided by the Korea Meteorological Administration were analyzed from January 1, 2012 to the end of August of 2022 to understand the regional wind characteristics of nuclear power plants and surrounding areas. The selected target areas consisted of 16 weather stations around the Hanbit, Kori, Wolsong, Hanul, and Saeul nuclear power plants that are currently in operation. The analysis was based on the temperature, wind direction, and wind speed data at those locations. Average, maximum, minimum, median, and mode values were analyzed using long-term annual temperature, wind speed, and wind direction data. Correlation coefficient values were also analyzed to determine the linear relationships among the temperature, wind direction, and wind speed. Among the 16 districts, Uljin had the highest wind speed. The median wind speed values for each region were lower than the average wind speed values. For regions where the average wind speed exceeds the median wind speed, Yeongju, Gochang, Gyeongju, Yeonggwang, and Gimhae were calculated as 0.69 m s^-1, 0.54m s^-1, 0.45m s^-1, 0.4m s^-1, and 0.36m s^-1, respectively. The average temperature in the 16 regions was 13.52 degrees Celsius; the median temperature was 14.31 degrees and the mode temperature was 20.69 degrees. The average regional temperature standard deviation was calculated and found to be 9.83 degrees. The maximum summer temperatures were 39.7, 39.5, and 39.3 in Yeongdeok, Pohang, and Yeongcheon, respectively. The wind directions and speeds in the 16 regions were plotted as a wind rose graph, and the characteristics of the wind direction and speed of each region were investigated. It was found that there is a dominant wind direction correlated with the topographical characteristics in each region. However, the linear relationship between the wind speed and direction by region varied from 0.53 to 0.07. Through this study, by evaluating meteorological observation data on a long-term synoptic scale of ten years, regional characteristics were found.

This paper discussed the validity of wind force power generation in consideration of the topographical characteristics of Korea. In order to estimate the exact generation of wind power plants, we analyzed and compared wind resources in mountain areas and plain areas by introducing not only wind velocity, the most important variable, but also wind distribution and wind standard deviation that can reflect the influence of landform sufficiently. According to the results of this study, generation was higher at wind power plants installed in southwestern coastal areas where wind velocity was low than at those installed in mountain areas in Gangwondo where wind velocity was high. This suggests that the shape parameter of wind distribution is low due to the characteristics of mountain areas. and the standard deviation of wind velocity is large due to the effect of mountain winds, and therefore, actual generation is low in mountain areas although wind velocity is high.

The wind-power among the new and renewable energies uses the wind, a limitless, clean and pure energy which is available at any place. It requires low installation cost compared to the generation of other renewable energies, and is easy to operate, and furthermore, can be automated for operation. Korea has been taking a great deal of interest in the development of renewable energy generating equipment, specifically wind power generation as the nation has a nearly total reliance on imported petroleum. A measuring poll 30m high was installed at a location with an altitude of 142m above the sea level in order to measure and analyze the wind power potentiality at H University's Asan Campus, and the wind velocity and wind direction were measured for 1 year. As for the wind power resource of the area adjacent to Asan campus, the Weibull Distribution coefficient was C=2.68, K =1.29 at H30m. Weibull Distribution coefficient was modified on the basis of compensated wind velocity (=3.1m/s) at H 60m, and the energy density was $42W/m^2$. AEP 223,750 KWh was forecast based on the simulation of an 800KW grade wind turbine. It is considered that the wind power generation has to be studied further in the inland zone with low wind velocity to cope with the possible exhaustion of fossil fuel and ensure a sustainable environmental preservation.

This paper discussed the Feasibility study of wind power generation considering the topographical characteristics of Korea. In order to estimate the exact generation of wind power plants, we analyzed and compared wind resources in mountain areas and plain areas by introducing not only wind speed, the most important variable, but also wind distribution and wind standard deviation that can reflect the influence of landform sufficiently. According to the results of this study, generation was almost the same at wind power plants installed in southwestern coastal areas where wind speed was low as at those installed in mountain areas in Gangwondo where wind speed was high. This demonstrates that the shape parameter of wind distribution is low due to the characteristics of mountain areas, and the standard deviation of wind speed is large due to the effect of mountain winds, therefore, actual generation compared to southwestern coastal areas is almost similar in mountain areas even though wind speed is high.

한국 동해의 wind stress와 wind-stress curl의 값을 수산진흥원 정선관측 바람자료를 근거로 하여 계산하였다. 바람에 의한 해수 이용을 염두에 두고 주로 지속적이고 강한 바람을 취해서 구한 월평균 wind stress 값들은 동해 전체에서 구한 기존의 값들과 거의 같았으나 wind-stress curl의 경우는 그 값이 훨씬 크게 나타났다. 이는 동해가 국지적으로 지형적인 영향을 받은 것으로 판단된다. 한편 바람에 의한 상층수의 이동으로 울릉도 부근에는 계절에 관계없이 난수괴(warm core)가 존재 하나 그 위치는 고정되어 있지 않다.

In order to clarify predictive accuracy for the wind resource predicted by running WindPRO(Ver. 2.5) which is software for wind farm design developed by EMD from Denmark, an investigation was carried out at the northeast region of Jeju island. The Hangwon, Susan and Hoichun sites of Jeju island were selected for this study. The measurement period of wind at the sites was for one year. As a result, when the sites had different energy roses, though the two Wind Statistics made by STATGEN module were used for the prediction, it was difficult to exactly predict the energy rose at a given site. On the other hand, when the two Wind Statistics were used to predict the average wind speed, the wind power density and the annual energy production, the relative error was under ${\pm}20%$ which improved more than that when using only one Wind Statistics.

해풍은 육풍에 비해 더 높은 풍속, 염도, 습도를 가졌을 뿐 아니라 풍향의 전환도 빠른 특성을 갖고 있다. 수목의 초기 생장에 영향을 끼치는 주요한 인자중 하나는 풍속이며, 일반적으로 초기 생장단계에서 수목의 생장률은 풍속이 감소될수록 증가하는 특성을 가진다. 따라서, 본 연구는 새만금 방조제에서 방풍시설을 설치함에 따라 수목의 생장과 해풍의 특성을 확인하기 위해 수행되었다. 본 연구에서는 폴리에틸렌 재질의 방풍시설(개구율 40%)이 높이 3m, 길이 130m에 걸쳐 설치되었으며, 내외부에 1, 2, 3m 높이의 풍향풍속계를 5대 설치하여 2011년부터 2012년까지 1분 간격으로 수집하였다. 새만금 방조제 시험지의 풍향 빈도는 북풍이 26.8%, 북서풍 20.3%, 북동풍 14.6% 순으로 나타났으며, 풍속은 높이별로 다르게 나타났다. 해송의 생장은 방풍시설 내부에서 자라는 경우가 외부에서 자라는 경우에 비해 수고 약 17%, 근원경 약 13% 높게 생장한 것으로 나타났다.
