This paper describes the structural design and testing for 1.5kW class wind turbine composite blade. In order to calculate the equivalent material properties rule-of-mixture is applied. Lay-up sequence, ply thickness and ply angle are designed to satisfy the requirements for structural integrity. Structural analysis by using commercial software ABAQUS is performed to assess the static, buckling and vibration response. And to verify the structural analysis and design, the full scale structural test in flapwise direction was performed under single point loading according to loading conditions calculated by the aerodynamic analysis and Case H (Parked wind loading) in IEC 61400-2.

A vibration monitoring is performed on a 1kW class stand alone wind turbine(W/T). When a W/T model is developed, general performance under various wind condition should be verified to introduce the product in the market. Especially, vibration characteristics within operating speed range are very important in the aspect of structural stability as well as generator's electrical efficiency. This paper examines the vibration performance of a home made 1kW W/T Various data of the W/T model are acquired in real time using a remote vibration monitoring system installed in Daekwanryung test site. Vibration stability of the W/T structure is diagnosed based upon the data and the result is used to estimate the applicability of the W/T model.

In general, the installation of offshore wind turbine have been carried out by a jack-up barge or wind turbine installation vessel. In case of using jack-up barge, an additional barge is required to transport offshore wind turbines. During the transportation, barge is affected by environmental conditions such as wave, wind etc. So, it is important to secure the static and dynamic stability of the barge. In this study, fundamental research was performed to evaluate the stability of barge due to use the guide frame. The analysis for static stability of barge was performed under the two loading conditions with or without wave and those results were evaluated according to the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries rules. Also motion analysis was performed under the ITTC wave spectrum using buoy data and evaluated based on NORDFORSK guideline by using commercial software Maxsurf Motions.

The global performance of the 5MW OC4 semisubmersible floating wind turbine in random waves was numerically simulated by using the turbine-floater-mooring fully coupled and time-domain dynamic analysis program FAST-CHARM3D. There have been many papers regarding floating offshore wind turbines but the effects of second-order wave-body interactions on their global performance have rarely been studied. The second-order wave forces are actually small compared to the first-order wave forces, but its effect cannot be ignored when the natural frequencies of a floating system are outside the wave-frequency range. In the case of semi-submersible platform, second-order difference-frequency wave-diffraction forces and moments become important since surge/sway and pitch/roll natural frequencies are lower than those of typical incident waves. The computational effort related to the full second-order diffraction calculation is typically very heavy, so in many cases, the simplified approach called Newman's approximation or first-order-wave-force-only are used. However, it needs to be justified against more complete solutions with full QTF (quadratic transfer function), which is a main subject of the present study. The numerically simulated results for the 5MW OC4 semisubmersible floating wind turbine by FAST-CHARM3D are also extensively compared with the DeepCWind model test results by Technip/NREL/UMaine. The predicted motions and mooring tensions for two white-noise input-wave spectra agree well against the measure values. In this paper, the numerical static-offset and free-decay tests are also conducted to verify the system stiffness, damping, and natural frequencies against the experimental results. They also agree well to verify that the dynamic system modeling is correct to the details. The performance of the simplified approaches instead of using the full QTF are also tested.

To get the better efficiency in Korean type wind characteristics, a new wind turbine blade was developed with some structural, vibrational, and aero-elastic analysis for the design of the full-scale blade. A series of full domestic technology from design to manufacturing was created and used in the middle of the development of nelv wind blade. And it was equipped and measured at the wind test side in the Jeju island. After test, it is verified that the blade has the regular capacity of 10kW at the air velocity of 10m/s. And it shows better capacity in the low air-velocity compared to the imported blade. therefore it can be made by only domestic technology, and used for the domestic wind distribution with the better power generation.

본 연구는 두 가지 목표를 가지고 수행하였다. 하나는 수치해석과 Design-FOIL Pro.를 이용해 블레이드 에어포일 모델개발이고, 다른 하나는 이 모델을 Folding blade에 적용하는 것이다. 일반적으로 1MW이상 대형풍력터빈용 블레이드는 강풍시에 피칭제어로 풍향에 대해서 평형상태를 유지하여 로터를 회전시키지 않는 방법으로 블레이드의 손상을 방지 하였지만, 소형풍력터빈용 블레이드는 설비비, 유지비등 경제성을 이유로 피칭제어를 채택하지 않아 블레이드의 파손 문제가 심각하다. 그래서 본 연구에서는 유지보수가 필요 없고 강풍에서도 파손이 없는 Spring pack을 이용한 로터를 직접설계(Direct-Design) 방법으로 설계하여, 그 성능을 검증 하고 변화 풍속에 맞는 폴딩각을 이용해 강풍시에도 Wind turbine이 Cut-out 없이 계속발전을 유지할 수 있도록 하는 점에 집중 연구하고자 한다.

Two and three-dimensional flows around a cross-flow wind turbine are investigated by the numerical simulation. The turbine studied in this paper has cylindrical shape with many small blades along its periphery. Incompressible Navier-Stokes equation is used for this simulation. A rotating coordinate system, which rotates at the same speed of the turbine, is used in order to simplify the boundary conditions on the blades of the turbine. Additionally, a boundary fitted coordinate system is employed in order to express the shape of the blades precisely. A third order upwind scheme is chosen for the approximation of the non-linear terms. When the number of blades is about 10, the highest torque is obtained.

일반적으로 풍력발전은 광범위한 영역에 지속적인 바람을 요구하는 대형 시스템 위주로 개발이 되어왔다. 그러나 소형 풍력발전 시스템은 유저에게 보다 친숙하고, 대형에 비해 보다 광범위한 적용이 가능하다는 점 때문에 최근 이에 대한 관심이 증가되고 있는 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 배터리 충전에 효과적으로 도입될 수 있는 도시형 풍력발전을 위한 프로토타입 시스템에 대해 기술하며, 프로토타입 시스템에 효과적으로 도입될 수 있는 퍼지로직 기반의 최대 전력점 추종 알고리즘을 제안하고자 한다. 또한 제안된 기법의 유용성 확인을 위해 Matlab을 통한 시뮬레이션 및 이를 통해 얻어진 알고리즘을 실제 DSP에 적용하여 보고자 한다.

A wind turbine system converts wind energy into electric energy, the system operated under normal environmental conditions. In case of particular turbulent wind flow such as typhoon, hurricane etc, the control of a blade used to a yaw control and a pitch control method. A small wind turbine has not a speed control system to only a manual tail safety brake. This paper shows a automatic tail safety brake controller based on feedback control using wind velocity. The controller composed of wired motor, relay system, steel wired motor him down a perpendicular to wind flow and then the blade speed reduced high to zero. The operation of automatic tail safety controller verified by manual test.
